Hey guys I figured I would throw a link to my new page I am starting up showing the boot animations I have done and you all can download them for free - all I ask is your register for free (if you haven't already , plus we got over 1000 wallpapers there as we speak for Android)
I will be updating this area frequently with new boot animations and focus on the ones people want to see - I will be making alternatives to Cyanogen and other great ROMS - I have already made a couple for new ROMS out for the DroidX that you might of seen already. If your a Rom maker and want a custom boot for your ROM shoot me an email through the "contact us" section of the site...
I am glad to give back to XDA with one of many ways I can - I am gradually getting my other team members from WJD Designs on board so we have different styles and more available at a lot quicker rate.
Remember you can add me on Twitter @WJDDesigns - Enjoy!
Preview of Boot animations done in the past two days...

registering is free - it is just a way of saying thanks for making these boot animations - if you don't feel like registering and even commenting on my site - don't go but we do spend time making these things for the community and that is all I am asking
Lol whats the big deal with registering. I have no issues with it. I would loooove to see a custom one for me though.
http://www.dt-x.com/wallpaper/spiderman_00/spiderman_00-symbol-1600.jpg
This is the "Dream Theater" Majesty symbol. I would like to see a boot up screen with the symbol spinning. (The artwork is mine BTW)
You can download the Dream Theater font here... http://www.acvox.com/dtlogofont.zip
And for the logo its just the "Y" button.
EDIT: Removed pic due to size
Dream Theater is a great band - wonder if one of the team members can do this for you? anyone on the team hear me?
You know of Dream Theater lol...Its good to see a fan.
So you heard the bad news that Portnoy left the band

Nothing bad will happen when you register. It takes 2 seconds, its completely free, and it gives you access to tons media. We are adding more daily, and being able to download these directly from your device is super fast. Check it out man, you wont be sorry.

Registering is fine with me, and I understand why you would want people to do so, but not knowing what I'm getting into just makes me hesitant to do so. That's all.
I didn't want to get anyone worked up about it.
I am interested in what you have made and I'm going to look now.
I really like the FlyX animation you made

Note: You will only care about this app. if you own a Sony Ericsson LiveWatch device!
v1.2
* Now with several more, aesthetically pleasing watch faces and hands
* Upload your own png file as /sdcard/livewatch.png (girlfriend picture, pet, etc.) -- Beware! The LiveView device is very picky with encoding, color set, etc.
* Flashligt! (Why not?) Click the select button, then touch the top border.

Make sure you download it from the market:

***
I am going to talk about a plug-in I wrote for the Sony Ericsson LiveView.
However, if you guys wish to discuss development for that device or how to make it work better, this is also welcome because it is both intriguing and under-represented (and a bit maddening at times)
Anyway, I was flabbergasted when I realized that there isn't any straightforward "watch" plug-in for the LiveView so in a couple hours I figured out how to use the SDK and created one.
I am not releasing it yet and I will only make it available it there is interest for it and I get the appropriate permissions from the people whose art I have used for this proof of concept app.
By the way, more face and hands art would be welcome!
A few (terrible) screenshots:
My LiveView was sent from the website i ordered it from, today=) I would really such an addon=)
And i can make you some artwork if i get something to work with=)
Oh, that's good.
I hope it works well for you. The device losing its pairing can be quite aggravating.
On the other hand it is a breeze to develop for; actually simpler than writing a home screen widget.
A friend of mine got it last week and said that he had lost his pairing once since he got it set up.
To me no development is a breeze i know squat about programing
But as said i would love to make you some graphics you could use so that you can release this=)
^^
I just received a sms from my post office that my LiveView had arrived
and here are a little graphic preview of some artwork you might use(?) It shows the whole thing, background, minute hand and hour hand=)
I really think you should release this addon
Ha! I like it a lot, in fact.
Can you post it as three files as described at http://www.voilaweb.com/lv_faq#createtheme?
Oh, and I updated the OP with a link to the beta apk
Will do, Just have to make some minor changes as the big and short hand are the same. and also added some indicators on the clock face.
Edit: Also, will you support this addon? i mean like bugs and stuff?
I guess, I will have to, yes
So, anyone go any feedback for me?
hey man.
i just installed your app from market and it's looking great.
i guess you can make a clock with digits or maybe a digital one.
it still disconnects but at least i have a watch
one other thing maybe you can ad an always on screen option
MrJay, first off, thanks for your feedback
The "always on" option would be nice but I invite you to think about this some more...say until your device dies on you because its damn battery is already too weak for the plug-in's current version
EDIT: OK I really don't want to sound negative. The device is really nice. I just wish it had better connectivity and battery life.
In fact, the tricks I read on how to force it to reconnect using AutomateIt, etc., end up sucking battery life like crazy.
The only thing i have to say about this addon, is that its a bit slow to update when i wake the screen. might take a sec before the clock shows the correct time.
Other than that, i love it
Thanks Marius.
Yes, I know about the 1 sec. delay it's due to sending as few updates to the device as possible, to improve battery life.
But maybe I could slightly alter this behavior for a "wake up" event.
BTW, I hope you guys are using the version from the market! It's free, but more likely to get updates than the one on my blog.

i stopped using automateit. it didn't do that much and yes you're right about the crappy battery life .
anyway keep up the good job. it's a nice to have application.
I ordered one of these devices today after seeing this post, fantastic plugin! this is perfect for when I'm at work, seeing as I work outside and don't have time to check my phone for any updates, much less the time. Thanks and keep up the great work!
Where can I order this I'm interested I live in California if that makes a difference
Well, Spitfire, so do I. I ordered from these guys: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004E2V4NM and it was shipped from Florida.
Have you updated this with any new themes?
Ive been away over the easter and haven checked in here for about 2 weeks. also i've been flashing a lot of ROMs lately so havent gotten to hook up my liveview yet. Will look in to it today th0=)
Can someone make a theme like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ib9GTkImEwQ&feature=player_embedded#at=20
(watch the video it has a bunch of different themes as well)

Awesome design. I fear that the LiveView's limited resolution will not be able to display something this complex, though. Not even something as good-looking as a TikTok
Can anyone tell me what's the latest version of HTC's sound enhancer? I'm trying to get it working on a Samsung Focus S. It's dev unlocked and I'm able to load xaps, but when I open it most of the options are grayed out and I can't save any settings I apply. Thanks.
Hook it up to an external source or earphones, then choose Equalizer, you should now be able to tap on the selection bar and choose which per-set you want; simply exit and it will save. If you unplug your head phones or AUX source it will go back to grey (default).

I tried, but nadda. Multiple headphones and speakers, all the same thing. No change in sound (dolby and srs are the only options). Even if I change something, exit the app and then reopen it, it's back to no effects.

That sucks, I wonder if it's a dll or driver issue.
I read this just today, looks like it was pulled because it was crashing HD7 phones and it sounds like a new one should be out as soon as HTC can fix it.

Wow this is what I mean when I say that Windows Phone sucks compared to Windows Mobile, the lack of functionality. Look at the picture below remember this? Why can we have something as simple as this on Windows Phone? It sure beats the hell out of me especially whey they forced us to move to WP7 when they pulled the plug on WM and stopped supporting it.

Oh man I would so donate too! You're totally right about keeping it simple. Dammit I wish MS would own up this...or that more people would make a fuss about it. I'm about to pack up shop and go back to my boring iPhone.

I had tried the xaps on my Samsung focus. And results were exactly as you experienced. I also want equalizer and bass boost options on my focus. I am willing to donate $10 for this thing.

I posed this as a separate thread but no one seems to have any intrest. I have Sound Enhancer on my Trophy and it does the job but it lacks the ability to let one ajust their sounds, it just has presets and we should have more opptions. Maybe if someone posts this to a mod or something it would gain intrest, who knows how long it's going to take HTC to fix this.

Thanks for helping bring light to this sinister. I'm sad to report that I'm going back to my 4S for the time being. I've been carrying it around with me since I got the Focus to use as an mp3 player...and as fun as WP7 is to use, multiple devices makes absolutely no sense to me.
My phone is also a Trophy.
No one is mentioning that Sound Enhancer doesn't work with Bluetooth headsets either.
That's because Bluetooth on WP7 is a joke, You can't do anything worth while or useful with it except use your ear piece for phone calls.
-update-
Ringi should now work on all android devices!
-/update-
Hi everyone!
I finally have my first android game up to a point where I can show it to the world I've always wanted to make games, and have been making them in my spare time for a while, but this is the first real, complete one I'm showing to the world. I'm a bit proud (everything 100% done by me), but also apprehensive considering all the different devices out there and what can go wrong So you guys are the first to see it in action! Where else but the place where I got into mobile phones in the first place?
Anyway, the game's called Ringi and you have to rotate rings using your fingers to bounce a ladybug off flowers and ensure the ladybug doesn't go outside of the rings. Some flowers slow you down, others speed you up and others do different things, so use them wisely
I think it's quite fun and addictive (in a kind of teris/breakout/puzzle bobble-y way), but I'd love to hear what XDA thinks about it.
Anyway, here's what it looks like:

}
There's two modes to play with (leveled and continuous) and three styles to choose from (although I like the default best ).
You can iplay the full game, with a level/time limit (mods, let me know if this is OK to post in this section!) .... but seeing as I'm asking for feedback, it's free unlockers all 'round! Well, I'll make a selection of the posters here and email/send via pm a free unlocker! I don't have a limit in mind, we'll just see if there's any interest to begin with
Anyway, here's the link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.LifeBoat.Ringi
If you like it, let me know, but more importantly, if you don't, please let me know why not! I'm open to ANY suggestions
And if you find any errors, I don't want to know about it. But tell me anyway, 'cause it means I've screwed up somewhere
-edit 04/09/12-
I've reworked memory management again so now tablets and phones with large screens (>800x480) and lower heap memory should run the game too! Google Play should soon be updating to v1.1.0!
-edit 17/8/12-
v1.0.11: it appears all bugs and FCs have been fixed! Thank you, everyone who stuck with the game for so long!
-edit 13/8/12-
OOPS! Made a dumb mistake in packaging v1.0.8. Please pretend it never happened Nine is the new eight
-edit 12/8/12-
For some strange reason a bitmap which should have been created as mutable wasn't on some devices/android builds. This is now fixed (or at least ensured not to happen). OutOfMemory issues were fixed in the previous update, so now Ringi should work for everyone!
-edit 11/8/12-
Did a large rewrite on the rendering code and on the way bitmaps are created and cleaned up. As a result, Ringi now uses a lot less memory and runs better. Devices with lower heap memory should now be able to start and actually play the game, and do so with better fps.
As usual, PM me your email adress for a free unlocker!
Guys, almost 250 views and not one download? Or even a comment?
Dr, I don't who you are, but pm me your email adress and I'll send you an unlocker! Thanks!
Might be good.
Will test it out on my tablet when I get home

I like this game a lot!
If this is one of your "early" games, I can't wait to see what you'll come up with in a years time
cwillison94, check your pm
And, Lesicnik1, thank you; I have "plans" Oh, man, do I have some cool ideas ... and I say that as a gamer. Three fully fleshed out, too ... just gimme a sound guy, one or two artists, a pr dude and some money (and with enough money, a finance geek would be nice, too)
It's just that I was laid off last week (they lost an account, LIFO, plus job didn't really fit with my capabilities, so don't be too sad) and I still have to pay rent and food ... so don't expect those games just yet
I'm looking for people with a Galaxy Nexus running Jelly Bean and /or a HTC EVO 4G LTE who also have aLogCat installed. Apparently there's a problem with Ringi on these devices, but I'm not getting any error reports sent in via the Google Play dev console. So if someone with those device could post their aLogcat log here, you'd be doing me a huge favour!
I know it's bad form to self bump, but is there truly no-one who wants to help out? Just a quick aLogcat, really!
Tested it for you. I'm running aokp milestone 6 on HTC Sensation.
Seems a bit laggy. The sound works fine. Under the tutorial the "done" bubble/cloud is placed over the actual instructions so you can't read all of it, maybe make it smaller and put it in a lower corner maybe.

Looks Good, Wish I could play it. I get a FC when I "Tap To Play". Running Sony Tablet S with stock ICS.
Thank you, Cj, for upping a crashreport from the game! Hopefully the OutOfMemory issue is fixed now!
Thanks i really like this game,
But when i open the toturial i get this:
Im using a sony xperia ray with ics 4.0.4
HAAAAAAX!!!
Ah...that's not exactly what I was going for! Thank you for taking the trouble of taking a screenshot; that really helps!
I'll go see if I can't fix that
I just downloaded the game for my sgs3 using cm9 and everything worked until I tapped the center to start at which point it did a force close. This happens every time.
Update: The game works if I set style to Segments. Flowers or Neon force closes. Nice game.
That's really strange ... could you report the error from the game, or maybe even install aLogcat and paste the error here (it's in red in aLogcat). I don't really understand why it would work in segments mode and not with the flowers ... I mean, I could understand if it didn't work in flower mode, but did in Segments and Neon, but not working in Flowers and Neon?
Well, I'll check it out, but a crash log would REALLY help
OK, I've added some fixes; hopefully the game should work on more devices now!
Do you have a direct download, the market is showing an error, possibly because I've changed my dpi from stock?
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk 2
It could be because I just updated the game ... give it another try. If it still doesn't work, shoot me a PM with your email and I'll send it to you.
The future of cellphones and cellphone plans along-side android to give you infinite possibility! And it is going to be epic!

Here we have what Google owned Motorola has created with Project Ara. A concept to bring the flexibility and open source that Google's android brought to software to the hardware side. A modular phone that you can customize. Why buy a new phone when you can just upgrade the one you have?
Build it to your liking, take it apart and build it better! And there even bring the ability use your 3D printer to customize it (I know you all have a 3D printer by now.... Right?)
Then we have the Build your own phone plan by Zact.
Currently on the sprint network, (I hope they expend or someone picks up on this and moves to something with a bit more... SERVICE.) You can pick how many minutes, text messages, and Mb of data you have or don't have, each month. If your realize that you need more minutes, text, or Mb, you just click a button and add them. If you have extra they roll over. How can it get any better? Oh, you have kids? You can set times, and limits on EVERYTHING! or don't. Your choice, and that's what makes it AMAZING.
All this mixed in with Android, makes it the perfect phone to build and create anything you can imagine in a phone. Unfortunately, I don't see Zact adding this phone to its list of phones for sale anytime soon, and currently Zact has "custom software" that means you can only buy there phones for there plans, and you can't install custom roms or anything that might cause the software to stop working because it would leave you left with a brick, and they do not have insurance. But... where there is android, there are devs and devs can do anything with time and support.
So, the future of cell phones is looking promising. If there are enough people interested in this stuff, support the developers. Comment on the xda forums and let them know that you want them to support Zact phones. Lets get the ball rolling on this.
I am starting my Zact plan for Christmas, and I will be flashing my prl's to roam because as of now, Zact roaming is free and roaming services at my house is better then sprint service.
The future looks promising! Let me know what you guys think!
future
nice phone...
Don't forget to help support project Ara on their dScout page!:good:
I got my phones a few days ago, it only took 2 weeks... I started it up, ran through the setup, wasnt thinking but aloud the OTA to run. I ran cf auto root, noticed I still didnt have su so I installed superuser from the appstore and checked root with root checker. Nothing. Then I remembered that I installed the OTA to 4.3 but forgot about Knox because I had not had to deal with it prior. I did just about everything I could think of. I also found that trying to retrieve your msl/spc is a lot harder. I am unable to get into the qualcomm usb menu because it asked for the msl, Most hidden menus are asking for msl. I attempted to install twrp but it says there is no recover found for my device. I cant connect it to dfs or cdma workshop. adb sees it, but I dont know much about adb so I want able to do much with it. I was however able to copy the ZACT mobile apk from the phone and install it to another phone. It is unstable and FC alot. My other phone sees it as a launcer like touchwiz or nova. Thought this would be a good idea to see what the apk itself controls on another phone. I am not a developer. I am computer savy and have been playing with flashing for a long time. If anyone is interested in teaching me a little, I would like make a backup of the rom. Is there a way to pull the full rom with pre-installed apks, I can factory rest back to start and just see whats available. I'd like to attempt to flash it to my old s3 make a clone kinda. So i can test an play with one without damaging my daily phone. Any thoughts or ideas on what to test let me know.
Nice
Just to set the record straight...in no way did Motorola create this idea. This was a concept created by Dave Hakkens. His concept was called Phonebloks. Motorola did some sort of deal to license the concept or something. Just don't go around saying someone created something when they didn't...its like saying Apple made the smartphone.
