I think I'm having a problem with SwitchPro. I'm trying to make the icons black all the time and I have unchecked the "Translucent when disable" box but the icons still appear to be translucent on my desktop.

Does anyone know how I can fix this?

You actually can change it with ADW, you need to make a shortcut to the app drawer, and customize the icon there before dragging it to the dock

But it deletes the custom icon if I drag it to the center (which turns into a trashcan)... :(

Haha, I used the same wallpaper. I switched to something else after updating to 2.1 though, because it's hard to put white things on the snow, isn't it :p

I really like what you did to the app drawer button. Too bad ADW doesn't allow me to change that part :(
Click to expand...
Yeah, I noticed that somebody else had the same wallpaper earlier in this thread. I just randomly found it while browsing on a wallpaper site.

Can't take credit for the app drawer button. I downloaded the template from XDA (I think).

Looks like simiclock with beautiful widgets 1x1 widget for the icon on the right.

What's that battery app?

edit: Also, how do you get the background to go transparent on Simiclock?

I saw this thread over the weekend and got all excited and then after some reading and searching I got all depressed because I have a G1 with version 1.6 which locks me out of LauncherPro and seemingly all the cool stuff. I installed ADW.Launcher Donut but it seems really limited. Other then adding some extra home screens (which I don't really need) I'm not sure why I would use it.

Is it possible on 1.6 to get my app to be screenwide? (like in some pictures and the OP)
Not nearly as fancy as the OP but I want it to look like this:

::ICON:: Name.....
::ICON:: Name.....
::ICON:: Name.....

Instead of the icon with the name under it (in tiny font)

Also, did anyone in this thread put together the best 1.6 apps or are you all in the big 2.1+ sandbox?

The clock is SimiClock. It looks like that by default.
The weather is Beautiful Widgets 4x1 with "FlatWhite" Weather Skin.

How did you get the line between the current and future forecast?

I'm using LauncherPro Plus, so I get to resize widgets. I simply resized simiclock to be 3x2 instead of 3x1, and in a strange coincidence, the only thing that stretches is that vertical line :D

RJ, can you please share your clouds wallpaper. I've fallen in love with your whole design.

Same. I'll probably just straight copy it. :lol

What's your messaging widget? Is that Pure messenger widget? It looks awesome but it sounds like there's a lot of people who have had issues using it with Launcher Pro.

It's the LauncherPro Plus Widget, but it's modified by some dude on the XDA forums.
Found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=783427

I own PMW as well, but I didn't really like it after a while. Kinda clunky, IMO. Maybe one day I'll revisit it and tinker with it some to get it to adhere to my tastes :D

Is there a way to increase the size of the Simiclock Widget? Currently it's way too small for me. And how can it show the weather forecast for 4 days like in the screens above? It only shows me the weather for today.
Thanks in advance.

Download that apk to your downloads folder on your phone. Then go to your setting > Applications > Check Unknown Sources

Then use an application like andexplore [free] to browse to your downloads folder and launch the .apk file to install z4root. Really simple. Just take your time and you can do it in 5 minutes.

How did you get the weather to display all five days like that? The one I have now only displays the current weather on the right side.

Did you do a battery pull after? Uninstall shootme. Do a battery pull. Download and re-install shootme. Should def. work.

1. What is that font name?

Thanks man
