Tell us your ADW Launcher settings

please post your adw launcher settings . what u guys have it set to for smooth scrolling and better performance.

First of all I downloaded THEME ONE for it.
Second I checked in UI Settings LAB & RAB and Secondary Actionbuttons for in total 4 shortcuts in your dock.
Therefor you need to uncheck Desktop Dots in UI Settings (first option)
I also unchecked in Drawer Settings Horizontal Drawer, it runs much smoother vertically when you unchecked it.
At Swipe Down action in System Preferences I chose Open/Close Notifications, so you can hide/show your notificationbar easily.
Also I checked System Persistent.
Further on I made some icons for in the dock and add shortcuts with Bettercut (a must have app if you want to use your own icons)
Finally I made my own wallpaper combining two pictures in one for a "canvas at the wall" idea...
Result:
ADW Launcher with Theme One works for me very smooth and i doubt I will ever replace it by another launcher.
Cheers,
Arnold

Hi guys. What is the highest version of ADW that works with the X10.
( The market update doesnt work - only with 2.1 upwards ).I have 0.7.6 and cant seem to get to the themes menu to change eg. to adw theme one.
By the way does anyone have an apk for a better version of adw.
Thanks

I still use the 1.01 standalone donut and it's working good on the x10...

You'd be better off just playing about with the settings to get it how you want. I've only changed a couple of settings and left most of it stock.
LAB & RAB selected, hid the status bar, disabled the horizontal drawer, and changed the background colour of the drawer.
I also use a modded ThemeOne theme with Sticker album icons.

I have had launcher pro for a very long time now and I don't want to change launchers but I am getting sick if its look. I have customized the dock recentley to my liking but what about the icons? I want to be able to change the icons of things that are placed in one of my 7 home screens but I can't seem to find a way to do that. Please help!
Here is what my.dock looks like now. I really want to change the icons :

Put whatever icons you want to have as your dock icons onto your phone, long press the icon you want to change, select Custom Icon, navigate to the icon you want and select it.
Custom icon.

i dont think you understand, i want to customize the icons on my screens, not on my dock, this didnt really help but thanks for your effort! anyone else?

You'll have to re-add all icons, but instead of dragging the shortcut from the app drawer to the screen hit menu>add>shortcut>applications. Pick the app, then it gives you the option to change the icon.

Got to be honest, I thought this was wrong, but hey, you can!
Btw, maybe try 'Folder Organizer' and then you drop short cuts to folders on your screen instead of app shortcuts.

[APP][MOD]Screen Off and Lock Transparent Status bar Icon. Have [CRT] on [Sense 4.0]!

Greetings.
So like many of you I enjoy having CRT animation on any ROM that I run. I also really enjoy the Cyanogenmod option to have a shortcut in the Notification bar to put the phone to sleep.
The app Screen off and Lock is free in the Play Store, and does exactly that. It allows you to place a shortcut on your notification bar and when used, can also provide you with that CRT animation that hasn't been added to Sense 4.0 ROMS as of yet.
So why post this? Well, I'm not too big of a fan of the Status bar icon that this app puts there when you choose the option to place a shortcut on the notification pulldown.
So, I hit up my buddy @akashptl and said, "Wouldn't it be nice if someone would just remove that icon on Screen off and Lock?" 10 minutes later, he sent me the apk with no status bar icon.
So what's here?
Screen off and Lock apk with a transparent icon in the status bar.
FYI:
The process of removing the status bar icon resulted in a transparent icon for the app itself. The text is still there and if you use ADWEX or Apex Launcher (or any other launcher that supports custom icons) you can actually modify the app icon to your liking anyhow, while keeping the transparent status bar icon.
Thanks:
First and foremost BIG THANKS to Katecca for designing the app and putting it out there for all of us to enjoy.
akashptl for hooking up the mod.
Support Katecca!
If you enjoy the app, please consider supporting Katecca and buy the Donate version of the app here: http://goo.gl/bqk19
And please visit his Facebook page for more info here: http://www.facebook.com/screenoffandlock
If you do buy the donate version and would like the transparent Status Bar Icon, Send a PM, and we'll see if we can take care of that for you.
Here's a couple screenies to illustrate what was done.

Hi raycaster3,
What clock theme are you using ???
Would you share the theme ?

What should i uncheck to uninstall?
And i don't have the "All animation" option :-(

Same here, doesnt work on 3.32 based ROM, failed to install.

3.32? You mean ics? I'm running it is sgh-t989 and ordroid 1.8.4 both ics roms. That's strange I just installed it like any other app. What rom exactly are you using and I'll see if I can get it to work.
Make sure you have "Unknown Sources" checked in the security settings in ics and in the "Applications" section in gingerbread.

Android N Styling - QS Panel and Notifications - MHC19Q and MTC19T

I came across a thread on how to apply an overlay that looks similar to Android N. Instead of an overlay, I modded the color.XML and dimen.XML to get the same affect. All credit goes to Lars124 at the thread below. As always, flash at your own risk.

Not sure why mine did but it also got stuck in a system UI crash loop when Tasker launched Google music (force landscape, force screen on) in my vehicle so I had to reflash my image to uninstall after I got to a computer... anyway your mods are sweet. Keep em coming!
Also I should mention my install of this resulted in white background and dark grey top, not the creme on black colors I see on yours screenshots...

Android N is gray and white. Most people want theirs stock or close to it. I like my QS background black. I also don't like my notification stark white so I changed them to a creme color. I also have put the Galaxy S6 QS and stays bar icons on mine. These are only some cosmetic changes that I prefer but I go back to stock to check my mods.
Edit: I replaced the photos on post 1 with ones from stock.

[THEME][SUBSTRATUM] Extras For AA - Personalize look of Android Auto

Are you bored of Android Auto UI? You can't stand the fact that on your car you have two clocks on the screen? Do you want to personalize your look of Android Auto tweaking the UI to your likings?
If yes is the answer to any of the questions above, you are in the right place!
Introducing my second Substratum Theme about Android Auto!
Extras For AA + Wallpapers For AA = :highfive:
Have you checked out my first substratum theme that changes Android Auto's default background? What are you waiting for? Get Wallpapers For Android Auto now and tweak Android Auto even more!
​
[/B]
In order to fully apply all the modifications, be sure to apply this theme on Substratum Lite
Don't know what the heck is substratum? Here's the official starting guide​
Here's a preview of what this theme can do:
One button mode
Two buttons mode
L+N = Launcher + Notifications
L+Q = Launcher + Quick access app
Three buttons mode
Others:
Tweak dimensions of bottom bar and status bar
Hide Status Bar
Make heads up notifications smaller and/or translucent
Hide totally bottom bar
​
Known bugs:
Overlays built stays pink on Substratum Lite after reboot
Workaround: please build & install an overlay with just the custom colours and then pick another extra.
[*]Applying black icons to bottom widget will result in a tiny rectangle around the icon
I have no clue on why this happens and whether it's fixable
[*]Gradient won't apply
Woraround: if you choose a gradient, also pick the extra to apply the gradient to what you want to theme at the same time and build & install. This should fix the gradient being not visible
Also, you might want to play around with the priorities tab in Substratum Lite. If you want gradient bottom bar, put it at the very bottom.
Also please note that an Android Auto update might break the theme. So if you update Android Auto, be sure to disable theme first, or it might be unusable
Download on Xda Labs!
