Still Hoping for a "Sense UI" Looking Homescreen for Ozone - Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development

Oh, how I dream of the pretty clock with the flipping panels and the weather in the center.
Is this just a dream? Or can it be done?
I'm willing to put money down on getting it done.
And Ookba and Jocky, I haven't forgotten about you guys. Bills suck. You guys know.

Have you seen this

Thanks a bunch, jharag!!! That's awesome. Not as sleek looking as the Sense UI, but it's still what I wanted, nonetheless!
It looks great on my phone!

I saw the screen grabs -- look great. Is there a direct link to the cab file for those?

Just go to the post, and then up in the top right hand corner, you'll see a link to go directly to the thread. All the .cab files are in that thread. Awesomeness.
Donated Today!!! WOOT!!! Got a star!!!
Here's some screenshots of my phone.
I wanna change the background, but I kinda like the blackness. It looks sleek and professional.

They have lot of standard themes that dun have to use wisbar or stuff like that
well i dont really want a simple theme, but a theme that makes you say WOW. gives everything a lot of detail, like the vista themes, but they all seem to be for Wisbar.

try ultimate launcher, simple looking or advanced whatever you like have as many scrolled and or tabbed links as you like and you can embed today screen apps into any page you set up.
search on handango uk or germany or look for the thread here that's titled "tabbed launcher " or something close to that !

That theme really gives you detail and it doesn't slow doen your ppc at all as long as you don't use Wisbar Advance..
That theme will completely only using Wisbar Advance Desktop
Checkout pointui.com most usable interface I've had on my phone yet (for touching anyway). I wish it was customizable but you can't have it all right?
i agree that ultimate launcher is very useful. easy to set up and it works.

Are you retarded, extremely confused, or is it just a language barrier. Well I think its all three.
-One, stop posting the link we don't care, the shoes are fake!
-You make Asians like us look bad!
Why fakes! One guy attempted to sell me the worst iPod clones ever at my warehouse yesterday. And he keeps insisting they are real iPods. What's hilarious was that I let me see a real iPod, he says its fake. He says "Apple made an update to iPods where it doesn't need to use iTunes. That really made my day

Tilt home screen modding question

Hey everyone, so I don't yet have a tilt but am going to purchase one tomorrow.
I've been doing some research into ROMs and general customizing for the tilt and have been a bit overwhelmed with all the information so please bare with me.
Do I need to do ROM flashing if I just want to change the home screen? I have a seen some cool ones that resemble the iPhone and other sleek looking home screens that I would like to add. Also, if someone wouldn't mind explaining what a cab is and how it relates to the ROM exactly I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you.
ROM = The OS (Operating System) i.e. Windows Mobile 6
Cab = Installation package for Software. Can also be used for registry tweaks.
You do not need to flash a Rom just to change your Today Screen (Home Screen is what they call it on Smartphones {lack touchscreen]).
Okay, very cool, thank you for the quick response.

Hi:
That is a great thread to start seeing some of the MANY options available for your Today screen. In that post people post their Today screen pics, and most people will say what programs etc. they use to create their screens. If you see one you like, and it doesn't say how they made it, you can always ask them, most people will be very helpful.
Here are some other good threads to look at for inspiration to design your own Today screen:

Need help finding Start buttons for win mo 6/6.5

Well, Ive been searching for months trying to find any stand alone start menu icons to fit with my Dusk theme as i love dinks taskbar but its changed my start button and my animated loading icon.
Before you accuse me of not Googling or searching threads, all i seem to keep coming back to is the 6.5x only thread, nothing else. They look awesome but no use to me.
Any one able to point me in the right direction?
Also if you know where I can get a choice of animated loading icon (eg.spinny win mo symbol) that would be great.
Thanks in advance!
No one?
You cant be telling me there aren't any..
..other wise what did you all do pre 6.5.X??!?!!

Look here it's a link to someone else searching, we can try to keep it in one thread, I can't find them for the life of me. I did have quite a number but I am gonna trawl through the Themes and Apps and see if I can find the thread.
original ganjaman has done some start buttons for 6.5. and i know he is lookin into it. best to ask him to make u one . I've learnt how to make them for 6.5x but not for 6.5 .
hope it helps
Thank god for you guys!
Thanks lads! I'll move my search over to that thread.
I know what you mean, I used to have a collection myself but when i got the all in one Dusk theme had no need for them anymore.
I must of been searching for the past few months looking with no joy..
Damn you Dink for making such a tasty taskbar!!!
If I find a hefty amount anywhere I'll make sure I share them around!
Thanks again for your help!

[Theme] Infinite Cha0s X for Liberty 2.0.1

Alrighty then, here we go. Infinite Cha0s X now up and running. I have decided to do the Market as an add-on due to various compatibility issues some testers have had. I managed to flash in succession: Market versions 2.2.7, 2.2.11, and 2.3.6 without need to freeze the MarketUpdater, or wiping ANYTHING. Not a single force close. However, even trying to flash a themed version of the same one included in the rom (2.2.11) failed for some of my other testers, sometimes not even showing up in the app drawer at all. Long story short, flash with caution or at least take the steps detailed here: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/li...ty-market-update-ver-2-3-6-a.html#post1454796
Features -
3D style buttons, both rectangle and round. (Round ones actually "depress").
Lots of inverted apps: Gmail, Talk, Market, Messaging, and Google Voice.
Complete theme - All apps included themed 90%+. Many have had EVERY image replaced or modified.
Sweet custom Wifi / 3G / Signal Bars / Battery icons.
Blue, white, or abstract blue pattern highlights (depending on what it is...)
Dark blue progress bar.
Too many more things to list...
Apps Included:
Browser
Calculator
Camera
Contacts
Desk Clock
Email
Gallery 3D
Gmail
Google Voice
Google Quick Search Box
Messaging
Music
Phone
Settings
Talk
Add-on:
Market

Haha! Thanks for the kind words, and I was thinking the SAME thing, and was almost thinking of posting it before I noticed you wrote. I know the Motorola stuff isn't as big over here, but was hoping for SOMEONE to notice this. LoL Guys, if you are running Liberty, and you like blue at all, you'll really love the amount of depth and detail that my theme has... Don't be scared. Peace.
Nice work bro,
There are a few pluses and minuses
Good:
Deeply themed!
Good colors!
Nothing really missing
Bad:
Images aren't very sharp
It doesn't look super professional and looks like this theme: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1002986 except yours looks better.
But I think if you could sharpen up the images a little bit to make it look a lot more pro and maybe more minimalist this could be a great theme!
Good luck!
Ljbaumer
Hey man, thanks for props and constructive criticism. Unfortunately I know of no way to make images sharper, as most of the images are found online, and I don't know any repository of hi-res icons to pick and choose from. Also, my theme came out well before Bruised Steel, just not for the Dx, as I had a Droid 1 previously, but I'm glad you like mine better. I dunno anything about being super professional, as I have no schooling or training in image manipulation, so I had to go with being as thorough as possible. I'm just someone with too much free time on their hands. LoL Anyway, have a good one.
Nice effort
Yea very creative,but I here wat he saying.themes just doesn't look shape around the edges.maybe some one on here can give you sum advice.
Beyond the Messaging icon and the little + symbol in the dialer picture, I'm not sure what you mean about the images not being sharp? I don't see anything else that isn't at least standard quality icons. Please elaborate.
Maybe they are judging the low res sscreen shots without actually installing the theme....i installed it just to try it and it liked beautiful...but the version I used was one I ported with Wugs...so the 3g icon didnt port directly over to GB that I'm using..... But loved it and planning on doing a re port once Wug updates his porter

Just checked yours out and, you're right, its easy to have "sharp" and "professional" images when you just recolor existing images. Man this forum is full of douche bags!!

thanks for not even having the common courtesy to bash my Bruised Steel theme on its on thread. you should remember that most themers do this for themselves and don't have to share with you. if you don't like it.... Don't use it. you Sir are the real douchebag.

willjohnson - DroidDoes was speaking of ljbaumer's theme, not yours... DroidDoes is an up and coming themer as well and knows how much of a PITA it can be at times, as I have helped him with a few things myself. Anyway, thanks for the kind words about my theme. You keep up the good work too.
At first glance it would appear he was talking about will. But after looking at each persons themes. I think he is referring to the pink theme by 'lj'. Big whoop if its hue changes, (his other 2 look pretty clean) and if he know that is so much of a PITA, why did he start bashing him for just stating his opinion.
Lj was throwing out his thoughts. Pointless ones yes, but still just his opinion. Looking at 'DD's' thread's and seeing what he has made for themes .... o wait he hasnt posted anything.... So he shouldnt be talking crap on other people's stuff until he prove's himself. Up and coming means nothing. Put your stuff out there and let the fans decide whos is better
Everyone starts somewhere. If its not to your taste just move along.
To the OP- nice work.
I have threads, just haven't posted them here, thank you very much! I have never, and will never "bash" another's theme. But, if you're gonna talk **** about someone else's themed images not being "sharp" enough when all you do is change the hue on yours, you SHOULD be called out, IMO! I am "up and coming" and have only been theming for a couple of months now but, I'm just on the other forums most of the time. XDA isn't the ONLY forum, yeah?
Cha0s, this is one of the things I miss most about my DX! Excellent work..as usual!

Calling all graphic wizards out there!

For the Samsung Continuum, we are in desperate need of people who are good with designing and changing graphics and icons... Trailblazer has done most of the hard work in accessing/customizing the ticker, however neither he, nor I, have the graphic ability to make good looking graphics and/or icons... For those with Continuums, if you are interested in contributing, and gaining your 15 minutes of fame (okay, maybe not ), either send me a PM, or reply to this thread. We will ALWAYS give credit where credit is due!
On the other hand, if you want lame or none-existent icons/graphics, I can always call up Kolourpaint and throw something ugly together. But, trust me, you don't want to see that. Remember the old 8 bit Atari graphics? See, I thought so...
Ciao!
Hey Shadow, are there particular icons that you're looking for? I'd like to give it a shot, however there are probably many who are far more accomplished digitally. If you could give me an idea I'd be willing to post a couple here and you all can let me know how crummy they are ;-)
Peace,
Ray
Specifically, I have a couple ideas xD
For the first one, maybe a blue ring that would go around the WeatherBug Weather image on the ticker... As in, when you click the weather icon, it would clearly show that you areeee actually clicking it for once
Second idea, maybe a few small, colored dots that could be placed on the main ticker display... These Dots, which i could have say, for example, a small "M" for messaging, would launch Messaging when clicked... Preferably green, orange, and purple or whatever, then another blue one that i could set as the image when clicked....
Third, maybe a nice button to go on the main page that changes when clicked (just make two images) and maybe has "Continuum" or something catchy
More ideas to come:
Thank you Moon Shadow - MN for making this post for me!
graphic designer
well i used to work for a graphics design firm and clothing company a few years back. this weekend i could hook up my good old media pc and get it updated with the apps (adobe suite/paint) i could cook up a few things and will get back to a thread (ill post in this one for starts) feel free to pm me about it and throw ideas. havent been around lately (hands full taking my son cross state back to his mommas) but new ec07 is going pretty good for me. yall have been great to me.
thanks for everything
unpacked my media pc and yay no keyboard or mouse
and gotta format etc. pushing me back a day or so.
ps... do u think a moving .gif would work for softkey and ticker mods?

Dude, it would be miles better than my stick figures... Trust me. I don't have an artistic bone in my body.. I would do better turning my 7 year old daughter loose on creating the icons... She didn't get the artistic gene from me...

Did the mouse eat the keyboard? Did the cat eat the mouse? (Okay, enough!)
AFAIK, the icons that are used within Android are PNG's not GIF's. I know you can't animate a PNG, so I think it may be a sequence. Trailblazer would be in a better position to answer that item.
Ciao!
