Whew, I really like those icons. Gonna try em out thanks.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Anyone have any good Windows Phone 7 icon packs to use with Desktop Visualizer?

Edit: Also, is there a reason that when I try to change LauncherPro's icons it doesn't see the .ico files I downloaded?

Yeah, pretty sure it only recognizes .jpg's and .png's

 

[JohnTinker]

Yeah, it doesn't recognize .ico files

Thanks guys.

Anyone have any Win 7 phone packs? Browsing deviant art now.

 

[IrishNinja]

some really awesome recommendations in this thread, thanks guys. i couldn't find the mario live wallpaper without that link.

few quick questions, going from AT&T jailbroken iphone (no internet) to a nexus one:

1) my girlfriend tried installing visual voicemail, i dont think it took. we uninstalled it, but my voicemail message is still some chick saying my name and i cant undo it. i call my actual voicemail # and setup the personal greeting, but it doesn't take, its not what you here when calling me. what gives?

2) can visual voicemail be setup on AT&T?

3) i only use internet (mint, pandora etc) at work or home over wifi. they're not gonna start charging for internet, are they? i have to elect that, yeah? please say yes.

this phone is so awesome. android > iOS.

I believe they have a zip file with the icons in the last few pages.

It's called Shiny Boxes, found it on XDA

Well spent a good portion of my day off from school transforming my Captivate. Took a little bit but making all the icons was pretty easy and getting them to fit is pretty easy too.

 

[OneMoreQuestion]

Hey guys I'm running LauncherPro on an X10i and I need some help with the Desktop Visualizer app. Is there a way for me to make a 2x4 or 2x5 icon(vertical rectangle)? I tried making a 1x2 icon and resizing it but it looks really bad... I'm planning to make a FF13 theme

Spoiler

though I hate the game itself

with the main characters as icons and smaller icons just wouldn't do

So I recently bought the HTC EVO 4G. Fucking amazing phone. Anyhow, I've been messing around with it the past few days. Right now, I'm trying to find replacements for some of the stock widgets (contact, photo frame, & bookmarks widgets). Here's how it looks at the moment...

Main home

Features: Beautiful Widgets, BattStatt, & Multicon Widget

Contacts & Settings

Features: SwitchPro Widget & stock contact widget

Calendar

Features: Pure Grid Calendar

Camera & Gallery

Features: Multicon Widget & stock photo frame widget

Media

Features: Multicon Widget, doubleTwist, Pandora, & YouTube

Bookmarks

Features: stock bookmarks widget

Wallpaper "Earth & Moon" from Zedge Ringtones & Wallpapers

 

[ShinNL]

My first time showing off proper screenshots of my X10 mini. The Eclair update is awesome

Handcent SMS with SwiftKey Keyboard:

Using ADW.Launcher (a replacement launcher is a must since the original stock launcher only allows 1 widget per screen).
Thanks remz for referring to the icon pack, they look great!
Using the free Starlight Live Wallpaper (the clouds move).

For now I'm extremely happy with this little powerhouse.

Also hopped onto the root bandwagon, which is actually quite overwhelming at first. But it was worth it and now I got a clean device (deleted all the bloatware, including the original x10 music player and home launcher).

So I recently bought the HTC EVO 4G.

Trust me on this, stop using any task killers and you'll get a much better battery life and overall experience with the phone.

Try going without it for a week and you'll see a significant difference.

I've been trying to get that Beautiful Widgets clock look without the weather for an hour now and I dont know if there's been a change in the LauncherPro Plus resizing, but no matter what I do, the widget doesnt get cropped, but resized with all the content in a smaller space?!

The weather stuff just gets pushed nearer to the clock instead of being cut out of the widget. What am I doing wrong? Halp!

Also wondering this, why do clock widget developers think i give a shit about the weather? I'll look out the window, or i'll be outside using my phone.

 

[GatorBait]

I just pretty much finished changing the entire look of my phone. I was on Sense before and used most of the Sense widgets, but now that Launcher Pro has a handful of scrollable widgets, I decided to take the plunge and install it.

I'm blown away at how good it is. I'm actually not sure if I will ever go back to Sense now. :lol

Wish I could take pictures for you guys, but I can't root until unRevoked fixes their Droid Incredible one-click root program.

I appreciate seeing the high and low for the day and then there's the 5 day forecast once you press on the weather.

On that note, I'm liking the new look for Fancy Widget. Its not just a straight copy of the Sense clock.

 

[Cindres]

Oh yeah, any good way to tell sense and all related apps/widgets to piss off and not run? For battery/memory and such.

If you're rooted there's an app on the market called 'AutoStarts' - be careful though, you can end up disabling important stuff by accident.

try the app called "shootme". It works on some phones without root as well.

What clock is this?

 

[Parallax]

does anyone have an active link to the htc sense clock version of fancy widget? i cant seem to find it anywhere

 

[JonathanEx]

Is anyone else really getting pissed off by slowing and freezing of LauncherPlus recently? I know it's being recoded from scratch - but I might bail out until it's done.

I reduced the caching in the settings, hacked it to stay in memory as much as possible, and it seems to be better. It still redraws sometimes, but not nearly as much. I also don't have that many widgets (7 I think).

Running Droid 1 stock froyo rooted.

SimiClock iirc

 

[TheLastFantasy]

So I just bought a Galaxy and I've got a few questions.

- Is there a way to get rid of/discard the additional empty pages on the home screen?
- What are the width and height dimensions of the screen so I can keep that in mind if I wanted to make my own wallpaper?
- Is there a way to make the wallpaper in a way that it doesn't slide with me as I browse between pages in the home screen?

Thanks, guys.

If you use LauncherPro instead of the stock TouchWiz launcher there's an option to have your wallpaper be static.

Is there anything she can do to make her phone run faster or has Motorola released the Android 2.1 update on underpowered hardware?

Still tweaking but here is my current Droid X home.

Nice screens

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

I really like what you did to the app drawer button. Too bad ADW doesn't allow me to change that part

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
