Currently there is no way to my knowledge to use clear or transparent notification bars with lp. But yesterday, I noticed that it would show through With a live wallpaper selected. I also recently downloaded just pictures which comes with a live wallpaper also.
So download Just pictures. Open it and select your favorite wallpaper(s) Long press it and add to favorites. Then go and select the just pictures live wallpaper. Then watch them shine through your previously installed clear taskbar.
I realize this is a live wallpaper and may use a little battery. Though I havnt Noticed any difference.

Interesting. This gave me a theory on why and how to fix it.......I just don't have the time to work on it right now. FINALS /oh noes/

exactly how i feel
anyways, why can't this be done by editing framework-res.apk? i'm pretty sure i had a clear taskbar when i edited mine. i just didnt like the look of the fully clear taskbar because some apps' backgrounds would show through the area where the taskbar went...but the point is it worked? i only use launcherproplus as well

I'm sure if you rip apart lp's Apk you might be able to. However im not that Savy with all that and I'm sure if it was that Easy it would have been done already. Unless devs are just not sharing.

launcher pro and live wallpaper don't work good together for me. it tends to be sluggish when scrolling through screens.

Do u have a quick link to setting up the battery indicator the way u have it displayed? I've been looking for something just like that.
edit: nevermind, found it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848803

Interesting. Are you saying that while using that program, I can choose non-live wallpapers and they would be transparent or only with live wallpapers? If using just images, it shouldn't really drain battery...I don't think...

I agree on the battery drain. And only live wallpapers will work

use better cut , can be found in the market
and thanks for the icon pack !
What must be the size of the original icons?
(like this theme b.t.w.)
Is there a way to edit the original icons with these, so that they show up everywhere and not only on the homescreen as they do when using bettercut?
here's a few more
and some more icons
and some more for tonight
These are awesome. Can you do some for Racing Live, Shoot U, Root Explorer, Bloo, Dropbox, CoPilot, Car Home, aCar, Dimmer, WW calculator (just any, different calculator icon would do) and AppBrain
A lot to ask I know

Very nice. I love it.
+1 to that, it would be awesome if we could use these everywhere
thanx glad you like them
and the rest of them
Love the icons, then again, I love pretty much everything with your name attached to it(have enough wallpapers to last a lifetime ) Could you make icons for Movies, Foursquare, and Gowalla? Would really appreciate it!
For those asking how to change the icons everywhere, I'm pretty sure you can do that in NinjaMorph. It basically reassigns the .apk for you from your phone. You would just have to have the icons on your sd card...
Wow, they are awesome and so quick too. Thanks man, you are a legend
here are the icons
the great hockey from modmyi.com hope we get a 400+ page goin over here for this one...
love orbz been using since it was first realeased..think its time for a change hope iq becomes big as orbz
thx...........
He's already done root explorer. Any chance of Quick Boot and Stopwatch too?

[Theme] Red Raider v0.1

This is a theme for Sky Raider 3.3 final that I just got started with. Only a few things are themed for now.
The icons are black (not all are themed right now) and the framework is mostly red (again, not all is finished).
Download: The file is 115.03 MB. Sorry there are TONS of icons! It is named v0Test, but don't worry, it is the right version.
Red Raider v0.1
Mirror
Flash it like any other theme.
MANY Updates are coming.

Sweet...gonna take this one for a spin when I get home.
Love the red/black gradients. Not so big on the font, but I can easily remedy that.
So I'm assuming this will automagically replace all the icons? What if I decide I don't like 'em? Any way to do this without replacing the icons?
Thanks, HTC!
Just open up the .zip file, go into system, and delete the 'app' folder. That will remove the themed icons.

What program did you use to take those screen shots?
Drocap2. It is pretty nice.
Yea it is, im using screen shots and it is terrible
Drocap is very nice. I also use PicMe, which is pretty dang cool if you're at your computer. Acts like a server on your phone, so you actually pull up your phone's screen on your laptop/'puter, capture it, and easily post it to your fav photo repository site. Between that and the Drocap/Photobucket app combo, capturing and posting screencaps is actually a pretty simple affair.
I am currently working on a v0.2 release.

Just wondering when v2 will be out. I really like this so far.

I just need permissions from a mod for one thing.
Then I will post it.

Are you waiting for permission for the red swype? If they say no, I also have a red shapewriter!
Are you going to mod the color on the market, phone, etc? Looking forward to seeing v0.2 and the screenies when you get it finished.
Thanks for the work and appreciate it.

"Simplicity" Mockup Browser

I havn't found a browser that I like 100%. I like Dolphin but I want something a little more clean/simple. Thats why, yesterday, I thought of making my own in photoshop (for now).
Let me know what you think.

}
So, that would be the main page. The three dots next to the Google logo would be a drop down menu for switching search engines and including others like Wikipedia, Wolfram-Alpha, Yahoo, ect. The icons at the bottom are from left to right: Home, Tabs (like when you do a home screen view on Sense/Launcher Pro/ADW/Go Launcher), Back/Front (Can be used on websites or tabs), Bookmarsk, Options.
The whole thing would also go into full screen mode and the top and bottom navigation bars would be brought up using the menu button (optional).
Again, very simple. At the bottom you have your main operations. Sort by (most viewed, alphabetical, ect.), Edit bookmark names/urls, and batch delete.
This is options menu. Options are seperated into three categories, Display, User and Misc.
I just realized that I forgot the enable/disable toggles (duh).
Anyway, this is pretty much my dream browser more or less. Im still working on some other things in photoshop.
Let me know what you guys think.
By the way, I got most of the icons from here...

I guess I would have to make my own if I actually developed this.
It's nice but i hate apps that doesn't use the native style of Android...why does everyone think that he needs to create an own UI?
Looks clean. I'd give it a try.

I'd definitely use it

Not sure what you mean by that. If I used the native style of Android wouldn't it be just like the stock browser? Therefore, it would be pointless in me making one?
Im by no means a professional UI designer so im probably misunderstanding what you are saying.
I do agree with you about apps that Android doesn't already have stock though.
Hmmm.. It has WP7 icon style

Choose live wallpaper

Ok, I feel like a complete noob asking this, especially considering I am trying to learn how to develop an android app, but how the heck do you set a live wallpaper? I thought you just long press>wallpapers>live wallpaper, but I see no such option. I know I've done it before, and I do have a live wallpaper installed, I was just playing around and accidentally set a static picture as my background. What the heck am I doing wrong?

Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
That is odd... my option always shows
Can you at least get there by navigating from the home screen/ settings/ wallpaper?
Did you accidentally freeze live wallpapers picker? Can't imagine how the entire folder would disappear other than being frozen.

As a matter of fact, I may have. I deleted all the apks I figured I didn't need (vzw, yahoo, etc) from system/apps and I don't see anything that says live wallpapers picker there or in my system>apps. Do you know the exact name of the apk, as I couldn't find it in the synergy zip either?
Wow, never seen that before.
Could it be that you... don't have have any live wallpapers installed?
Suggestion, try downloading a free live wallpaper from the market and see if the option shows up after that?
On my phone, these seem relevant to the OP's discussion:
/system/app/SecLiveWallpapersPicker.apk
/system/app/SecLiveWallpapersPicker.odex
/system/app/SecLiveWallpaperChooser.apk
/system/app/SecLiveWallpaperChooser.odex
All are set to rw-r--r-- permissions.
Were those deleted, possibly?
- ooofest
Yep, that was it. I was dumb enough to delete secLiveWallpapersPicker.apk. I must have accidentally thought it was one of the built in wallpapers I don't use and deleted it. Glad I made a backup of everything.
I added it back in and it worked perfectly. Got my lovely JB Live wallpaper back, thank you so much!

[Theme][UI Concept][UCCW] Facebook Redesign inspired UI Concept

Hey folks,
I am pretty sure many of you have seen this amazing facebook redesign concept and I thought I'd make a new Homescreen UI based on it - I think with the big screen of our galaxy note, it's a cool Idea. However, I am neither really good at photoshop nor at using UCCW and right now the problem I got is, that I am not able to resize the UCCW correctly.

I am using Nova Launcher ATM and no matter what grid size I use or what size I set the UCCW Image, it never goes fullscreen. Maybe it is due to the new update? Any hints are welcome, right now either have to use SSLauncher or as a wallpaper with transparent shortcuts...
Well, I will be uploading my UCCWs here and if any of you is interested in creating some UCCWs based on this redesign (Like a themed calendar, music player etc. etc.) would be cool if you post them here. I am sure there are many better themers than me out here
Greetings
I've got an idea on how to share your theme easily with others. Use buzz launcher, add in your uccw stuffs inside, and share. Other than that its free
I have already used buzz launcher but it is too laggy and unstable in my opinion. I can upload the uccw already but well it doesn't fit to full screen so thats kinda bad atm, I cant get the scaling right ! (and also I want to make it somehow customizable for you guys so I gotta remove my profile pic ofc )
I will upload some more concept stuff tomorrow, watched the DFB Final today and I am pretty exhausted now... if you want to have a glimpse at my work with SS Launcher, you can check it out here, with many tutorials and files already:

Good luck with that mate waiting your work :good: btw where that new facebook with the redesigned UI ?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Here is a ZIP-File with the PNG's, maybe someone manages to resize them correctly for UZIP... but as far as I've seen, many users complained about the new update making widgets too small.
The Icons are from a paid icon pack called "Retrofied" btw, made by screenlicious, check his work out:
http://www.screenlicious.com/shop-2/
Also many free icons! I will continue working on some more tiles, stay tuned...

Here's another UCCW, playing around with the Tiles UI...
