AnyCut icon issue - XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps

I needed to add a dialer icon and used AnyCut, but the icon is cropped and looks bad. I then added other icons and most are cropped off.
Anyone else have issues with AnyCut and it cropping or cutting the icon.
Also, can anyone recommend an AnyCut alternative?

Bump, Bump

Anyone know of an AnyCut alternative?

Give dgQuickCut a try.

Thx for the recommendation, but the same thing happens.

I had been having this same issue, and though it's annoying I did find how to fix it (at least on my Droid X) After you have made all your shortcuts, and the icons looks crappy, restart your phone. This made them shrink to the proper size for me.
I have a different issue with anycut where certain contacts just will not add as a dial shortcut. Had to use motorola's built in contact quick task shortcuts, which I dont like as much..

Make Google Calendar the Default

Anybody know how to do this, it is extremely annoying to have to remember to select google calendar every time you make an entry.
http://androidforums.com/samsung-ca...-calendar-default-when-adding-new-events.html
Has anyone figured this out yet? I HATE that I can not change this to default to google's calendar instead of "my calendar"
I agree this is really annoying. I've had to go back and change multiple entries because I forgot to make that adjustment when creating an event.
However in the link above someone made the suggestion of downloading Jorte calendar because it has setting to make google the default. Did you guys give that a try?

I tried Jorte, don't really like it to be honest, feels a bit cluttered and unintuitive to me.
Still waiting for a better alternative...

I'm using Jorte right now. I like the widgets that can display my calendar on the home screen. However, the settings are cryptic at best, and the buttons in the app don't have labels and seem to do different things with each press...
However, it is worth it to have my calendar correctly sync with google without me having to re-select the calendar for each new appointment. I make a LOT of appointments on my phone, and when I realized they weren't syncing, I had to change a LOT of appointments.
Has anyone found a better solution to this bug yet?

Bump for this one. Is this something that would need changed at the OS level? I.e., no quick fix via a small app
Devs, we are calling you!!!!!!!

i'm using gemini calendar. it works great and has some other features.
This is fixed in the new 2.2 update; you can completely disable the "my calendar" app and use the stock google calendar and widget.

I believe Froyo fixes the calendar issue.
It does work on froyo.

Looking for a particular "launcher-like" app

Hey all,
Forgive me if this has been addressed before, but I am having trouble finding the words to use to search for this app.
I am looking for something like the iPhone stack app, where you have an icon, you click it and other apps come out, similar to the Simi clock's ability.
Is there anything out there like this? It will help clean up my home screen and it'd be nice to have this "button" to skin it to how I like and then when activating it, get the apps I select to "emerge" or "cascade" out from it.
Thanks!

Mobile Hotspot Fix w/o Date Change

Found this on the VZW forums and haven't seen it here yet. If you create a widget with Elixir, you can toggle the hotspot on/off without needing to change your phones date/time.
https://market.android.com/details?id=bt.android.elixir
Install this app.
Create a widget on the homescreen.
I picked Elixir 1x1
Click on the X at the top and choose Wi-Fi Ap(Hostspot) switch.
Then click create.
Then click on the widget you created and it will launch your mobile hotspot.
Good Find!
Thank you!!!
Edit: where is the x button located?
I've checked around a bit but am unable to locate.
Further edit: found it. It is a bit transparent at the top.

[UPDATED 8/21] Does anyone want.....

Softkey remaps have been added to Trailblazer Mods
Also, the Clock Unlock has been added xD
Now though, new "Does anyone want...." When someone calls you, and you are in another app, so that you see the call from the ticker, does anyone want the "Ignore and Text" button to link to Google Voice?
Also, how about bold ticker date text? I don't know, the original seems to small for me haha
I don't know about it doing that but I was wanting to change the functionality
Anything that gives it functionality... I have literally only used it once to see what it did and screen on/off seems infinitely more useful... you know us continuum users will take what we can get...

I want the home key to toggle the torch on the lockscreen like in the miui roms!
Sent from my Droid using XDA Premium App
Could you make it open app droor to switch apps w/o goin to homw screen? That and on-off are only functions I can think of rite now but im sure someone has killer idea ...whatever function you give it you gotta make a cool icon and 1 word descrip with no more than 6 letters....hahaha
sent from my XDA phone - its more than a continuum
I wouldn't mind a call button that's one thing I really miss about my hero lol.

You mean open phone icon? I like that too... then I can remove from dock or whatever on home page

I can make it open up the Call Log, is that good enough?

Does anyone want a mod for the search key that turns the screen off instead of going to search...
Holding down on the search key also launches the Shutdown Options Menu....
Some people seemed to want it, so i will upload it to the Trailblazer Mods thread soon

Also, ever since the upgrade to 2.2, the (handy, in my opinion) feature of unlocking the phone threw clicking the clock had been removed for some retarded reason I managed to put that feature back in, for myself mainly, and for anyone else if they want it

+1 on this, i'll give it a try, sounds pretty neat

So yes Trailblazer101....final answer.... I would like a mod to change function of search key...really don't care what.....if we could answer/ignore/end calls or even sum kinda application launcher....
sent from my XDA phone - its more than a continuum
I believe this deserves some consideration. With sum trial and error we could make a lasting improvement to google's standard interface. Im sure there is some app, utility, or shortcut that can be represented by an icon and makes navigating your phone easier....menu, home, and back are kinda dedicated to the SMART so maybe fourth key should be dedicated to the PHONE part init? To make a long story longer we took this phone from Sammy and VZW when we gave it froyo...we will take it from google when we improve native/home keys.......was that motivational hahaha

haha, yeah that was motivational, haha Made me think

Looking for an app: Floating dialer widget w/contacts AND DTMF (touchtone) support

i am looking for a floating dialer widget w/contacts AND DTMF (touchtone) support.
the only thing that is close to what i am looking for is Floating apps. but it doesn't support touchtone, and annoyingly, it's not a standalone app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lwi.android.flappsfull
i've also tried using Floating banners to create a widget with a dialer widget, but sizing of the widget gets really strange and unusable, and none i tried suppots touchtone.
what i want to be able to pull off is, if i am looking at a meeting with a call bridge, while i am in the calendar app;
1. open up the floating dialer;
2. open up and call the bridge number from contacts; (in my invites that i get, only an internal IP phone numbers are specified, so short of me memorizing the number, i'd need the floating app to pull up the contacts list. alternatively, it could support speed dial from the widget)
3. punch in the bridge code in the floating app, so i can still see the numbers in the calendar app in the background.
does a such app exist?
or is there a calendar/appointment app that can handle something like this?

There is a small app for Xperia phones called 'small phone' which is just a floating dialer. Not sure if there is a small apps port for your device, but if there is, you may want to check it out

that looks a lot like Tiny apps.

does the Xperia 'small phone' support DTMF?
You might want to try a combination of popup widget and simple dialer widget. Popup widget allows you to have any widget as a popup.
Or PA halo might work for you.

confused about that. is that a rom or an app???
alternatively, what would work for me is a floating 'event details' widget.
i am seeing a bunch of floating calendars, but what i need to see is the event details in a floating widget.
anybody seen anything like it?
