[APP][Widget] Broken Screen Widget - Android Apps and Games

Hey there!
I would like to show you one of my first apps.
This is an unpretentious widget supposed to fake an impact on the phone screen and so simulate a broken screen to fool your friends .
I know there are many other apps of that kind on the market but I wanted to write something which would be easy to use and custom.
On top of that, it's free and ads-free. So, tell me what you think, what I could improve, and enjoy .
Here is the market link
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.kcp.brokenscreen
And some screen shots
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Thank you!

Ahah, it seems pretty good for a first app !!
Totaly useless but must have.
Effect look quite real.

Cool app idea.
Just one thing of note...
And when I browse for it my app browser screen or widget browser it has a black background and your icon is black so it looks like your app doesnt have an icon. But I see it does when I click it I can see it (because it gets highlighted green when I click).
Im on an HTC Evo.

Great app. This will make for some interesting practical jokes.
Made clickable for the lazy!

@JustinBrew
Thanks for your feedback! I have just noticed it too. We'll make an update soon with a new icon .
And for the link, I was unable to make it clickable since this account on Xda forums is new. Thanks for adding this!

Hey,
we pushed an update for the icon, now It should be visible at anytime .
Regards,
KCPDev

Can't click link. Any hints yo which app is yours in the market?

ahaha nice app...
i hope this one actually works
tried a few on the market but none seem to work quite well
keep it up mate

LOL. can you set it on a timer? I'd love to give the phone to a friend and that pop up then cuss them out. lol!

I downloaded the update, icon is perfect now!

My bad, I got it working.

Awesome, but pointless.
Looks really really cool though

That is a good idea!

Thanks for all your feedbacks!

Would be cool if you could have set to open an app or shortcut when you click on the crack

It works great, but it's kind of small on the galaxy s. you can modify it with launcher pro + to enhance the size. also being a widget it moves when you scroll between panels. it would be cool if it stayed in the same place on each panel and on the app drawer.
Cheers

If you do that please include a "click" or cracking sound when the screens cracks...LOL
Edit: Would be better if it would take up less widget space..IMHO

Horizontal Contact Widget

Question to everyone....is there a decent contacts widget that is horizontal and not vertical, like the HTC contacts widget we have on our phone. THAT is a beautiful wiget aside from it is going vertical and not horizontal as I would like.
I have been looking for a decent one on the web and market and have come up with one, but it does not work on HTC Heros in the US due to our sense
Here is a screen shot of what I am looking for....either two on top are the perfect widgets for my contacts. I'd like to scroll through them as we can on our HTC widget. Anyone have any ideas??
....or even more badass would be to get the widget we have currently to be horizontal instead of veritcal

or a widget that lets you have this looping over and over on one of the home screens sorry I have ta
I have been wanting the same thing for such a long time now. I hate the vertical positioning. It will be so much nicer to have it horizontal.
I was watching this extremely long video on youtube about making apps and so fourth. There's a code that you can enter into any apk that gives it that and 180 degree orientation. I know that it doesnt help much but just saying its possible

I apologize, I must have posted the wrong vid. hehe I hope you forgive me
Here is that extremely long video that I'm watching again. One hour thirty five minutes twenty two seconds. Yeah thats long but if you are makin or modding apps it's definitely worth it. Now the real question can you really give any apk 180 degree orientation?
so you want it to be all contacts or just favorites?

Just fave might be acceptable also, if it had the scrolling effect horizontal sytle.

Adw.launcher = 2.2 look and feel from froyo

Imho the new adw.launcher is the best home replacement! It's like launcher pro but it's nicer and more options. I recommend to all or at least give it a try and please tell what you think...
+1
I was waiting and waiting for this to finally come packaged in a method not requiring root. It's super sleek and has a ton of options. I love it.
thanks I was just looking for a new home replacement too
I definitely love the insane amount of options but I dunno, just didnt do it for me. Im gonna have to give this one to LauncherPro.
where can I find it at? is it called Adw.launcher?
ADW.Launcher

Wow, its a nice launcher...I do wish for an option to save settings to sd card.
Installed once, and it was nice. I tried reinstalling it and I can't get it to come up. How do you start it initially? Last time I just hit the home button and it gave me the option...

Am I the only person that has noticed a somewhat annoying amount if lag with this launcher?
While I can say it's a nice looking launcher, I just can't say that I would use it in a day to day basis.

Are you using LWP's. That might be your problem.This is fast and smooth for me. If you have them take them off and see if that's your problem.

It looks great but where can we find it?
i found it using google search AmbientTime Home-Launcher
the 6th link... i think its chinese... to download click the "down arrow" after the heart
http://www.coolapk.com/apk-3086
so far it is nice.
i can hide the apps that i do not like (like moxier,and other)
so far i like it.
Lock screen is really nice. Thanks for the INfo (OP)
24 icon on screen! Moxier Widget looks squeezed.

Thanks for sharing, it is nice and I have just downloaded. Enjoy, guys!

Wonder what damage it will do to the battery though!
So they caused the delay for 2.1 release. Probably they put hours in making this one and thought that it will all be wasted/
Now we all testing the battery.
the japanese has always something special and they keep proving this for us

There's a download link on the same page, just scroll down a bit and look closely
Besides the animated wallpaper I don't see any other reason to choose this over ADW. Does anyone know if it's possible to use the wallpaper without having to run this launcher? In other words, can I use the live wallpaper with ADW?
Really really nice.
I thought live wallpaper is only supported by 2.1 and not by 1.6 ?
Anyway the "one and only" big reason why I´m waiting for 2.1 is the change of stupid lock screen on 1.6. Doesn´t work sufficient enough for me. I tried some lock-apps too, but no app was "much better" than the original one. On every call I have to hope I can unlock the screen. But this one in this pack works perfekt. Thanks for sharing.
Only good point is live screen..ADW is far better..

This is awesome! Why the hell did they not release this earlier?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
well it's available only for japan... better late than never i think the apk is modded...
back to adw... i only like the lockscreen and the "live" wallpaper...
can somebody mod this to get only the lockscreen?

Yup, I got that too.
When I'm receiving a call it reverts back to the old lock screen, and when I'm done with the call I'll have to first unlock the default screen, and after that the AmbientTime one. Is there any way to force the AmbientTime lock screen to be used when receiving calls? If not, I guess I'll have to stick with ADW.
In the first post the wallpaper is very colorful but mine is simple! why?

Sorry but the widget is born with the idea of the forever alone... Maybe in next releases we can choose above multiple choices..
Do you have some ideas of funny alternative pics?
I think that's the whole idea of this, if you don't get it or like it then you don't know anything about the internets.

btw its made by UsTwo for SE? (the same company who made createtouch) if yes maybe they'll optimize it more and add more options
Modded Dark Blue Version
It's Unsigned, so use X10ModTool to push it to System\App
Or waiting for someone to sign it
woww....hope someone can signed it!
