Hey guys,
Because I have a long commute to work and back (1 hour total!!!), today I worked on a new skin for the ICS email widget. I did it because all the white it uses by default did not fit with any of the other widgets I have, and I used to hate it!!!
Here is a screenshot of the result:
{
"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"
}
Sadly, I can't edit the header text color while working only on my tab in a subway (lol!), so this will have to do. There is no real info in the header text anyway, so for me it's ok.
I have also created a ZIP (and tested it) that you can flash using CWM for convenience. The zip is attached to this post. Please say thanks if you like it and I hope you enjoy it.
Note that you may need to define your email accounts again. This is normal behavior (added security by Android in case someone tries to tamper with your accounts). Also note that the app is untouched (I like it overall, same as the calendar but the latter has a dark widget :-D), only the widget was skinned.
PS: also feel free to report any issues with the APK or the ZIP in this thread.
Peace,
C.
Thanks! will try now...wanted to ask, how did you make your layout like ICS?
I have to admit that I don't really understand the question.
I am running ICS on my Tab, so I don't have to make the layout, it just is :-D
for me the cwm package works perfectly out of the box.
i love the new widget look, maybe you can make it so the text cannot be seen at all?
spamming thanks buttons (also for work on ICS)!!
Thanks. Looks good. I wish there was a way to make ICS use more screen real estate. The square is driving me a little crazy.
ICS 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 have same email ver 4.1
Indeed, the CWM zip is compatible with all current versions of ICS, including CM9 and AOKP.
Let me know if you encounter issues while using it.

This is my first mod for the Sensation - It should work with any rom! Haven't tested on MUI so please let me know!
I have been running ICS for quite a while now and love the blue theme that comes with it. I really like the OSAP keyboard, but dont like the predictive strip along the top were you have to click on the word and then select the one you want from a menu.
What I have done is taken the brilliant Gingerbread OSAP keyboard and modified it to make it look like the ICS keyboard. The predictive strip along the top is now blue instead of orange and I have also changed the press button colour from light gray to blue. I have also removed any orange high lights as well. Apart from that the keyboard is stock and looks rather cool!
I have made a fully flashable zip and it installs into data\apps. This means you can remove easily if you want

We have just released the fix.
Should work fine.
There can be problems with a second hand, but all the other features should work. Please let us know if v. 1.2 works.
Thanks a lot!
v 1.3 released.
2 new skins added.
+ should be compatible with the most popular devices.
Please let us know if something goes wrong.

Big Clock Widget video
Here it is.
For Mac users there is something too...
(I am on the unofficial CM9 release)
Is this possible? I know the delay was set by Google to keep the screen from rotating when you don't want it to, but it doesn't bother me if it rotates on accident- and if it did bother me I'd just turn off auto-rotate. I'm not looking to speed up the animation, I want to remove or shorten the screen rotation delay. All I can find on Google is people misunderstanding this request, people saying "GOOGLE MADE IT AS A FEATURE I DON'T SEE THE PROBLEM" and people saying "AOKP ROM lets you change it" Okay well, how did the creator of the AOKP ROM do that? What file needs to be changed to modify screen rotation delay?
Thanks.
P.S: I'm not an idiot when it comes to modifying Android, I'm hardly versed in it, but I'm confident with what I do. I'm not some random idiot.
you need to change framework parameters. you can either change the SETTLE_TIME_MS= in the framework (see http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=24869) and compile the rom from source,
or try to decompile framework and change with the method in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1413304 which may work for ics.
both are somewhat time consuming to do though... so people would rather recommend you flash an aokp rom.
Well I'm not too keen on compiling a whole rom lol so I tried the framework.jar edit. I followed the directions exactly and when I rebooted I got the "Android Optimizing" like it does after an OTA and... No change.
Is the feature a default AOKP thing? Cause if it is I may have to check out the Uniporn rom.
In the unicorn Rom control setting at the bottom of general ui is rotation delay. I don't recall if cm9 has same option

Thanks for the help guys, looks like I'll be flashing UNiPoRN. Hopefully I'll be able to MMS with that rom as well.
Put these as your settings it'll work great! (Password is: CINGULAR1)

I am looking for any screen Locker or Launcher software in the style of Lenovo phones. It looks like a glover leaf but it is meant to be a lotus flower.
As I am already searching for a while all hints are appreciated also if they lead to a ROM or anything that's not 100% what I am looking for.
This video shows the lock tool I am searching:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-Qj3PXR-eU
It would be great to have that and to get that ROM from the video. Unfortunately I don't speak any Russian.
In this XDA Developer Thread aalopez10 asks for the launcher. Unfortunately the apk file there is in Chinese, the widget is 3x3 but I need a 4x* widget.
And the result on my phone (Lenovo A750) does not look as nice as the screenshots posted there.
A non-text version of that launcher can be found here: http://www.4shared.com/android/gSVXdxoy/Launcher_signed.html?refurl=d1url
Another disadvantage of that widget is that it can't be modified. You cannot define the buttons yourself.
I also tried the ROM by cybermaus: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1650014
It has an app called Lotus, Magic Launcher or GoLauncher for Lenovo. But this version of Magic Launcher has two buttons that cannot be userdefined and it is also in Chinese.
Thanks in advance!
So here are serveral pictures of what I am looking for:
Screen-Locker:

(From other thread, CES 2011)
(From Video, russian ROM?)
Launcher-Widget
(Lenovo K800)
(Lenovo A520)
(LenovoWidget.apk - did not look that good on my phone)
Update: I found both the Go Launcher with the right theme and the Idea Widget / LenovoLeWidget in the GB 2.3.6 ROM from cybermaus.
But unfortunately these files are odexed and I cannot use them on ICS. Is there any way to deodex or whatever needet to install them on ICS?
milocker has a great lotus lockscreen clone. Peep it out.
Thank you, good hint. I found lot's of very beautiful lockscreens but so far nothing that comes close to that Go Launcher lotus lock screen above.
Do you have any more hints or maybe a link?
Only launcher
