[Metamorph] Flat Black Swype

I themed Swype to be flat and black to better fit my aesthetic and making the metamorph available here. Note this is just a metamorph, not the app; you have to have the app already. Keep a backup version of your APK on hand in case this theme doesn't work.
The version I used for this metamorph was Swype_v2.4.44.10912_WVGA_English_ANDROID.apk. I think it should work across WVGA versions as long as they have the same layout.
Here's the instructions- 1. make sure you have the most recent MetaMorph from the market
2 with a file manager like root explorer go into /data/app and find com.swype.android.inputmethod-1.apk
3 long press on the com.swype.android.inputmethod-1.apk and select move
4 navigate to /system/app and select paste
5 long press on it again and select rename, name it swype.apk (all lower case) then reboot phone
6 open up Metamorph and select unzip/extract new theme
7 navigate to the BlackSwype.zip and apply the theme
8 reboot again
note you have to reboot your phone 2 times during this process.
Enjoy.

[Live wallpaper] Gingerbread live wallpaper

Is there someone who can test this wallpaper?
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8510941/gingerbreadlivewallpaper.zip
I'm not rooted..

It worked for me
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

works perfect for me, NeXusOne with CM6.1 Nightly #285

Works fine here

Works like a charm.. This was obviously designed with Hummingbird in mind though, as it is slightly jerky on my Nexus One..

Speed is identical to the original 'Nexus' LWP on mine?

Yeah you are right, I think it was just jerky at the startup, but its smooth as ever. Btw, OP can you get hold of the 'microbes' lwp by any chance??

Is there a way to install this without root?

No, it needs to replace /system/apps/LiveWallpapers.apk I'm afraid.
You don't need to flash via recovery though, I used ADB to put it in place.
Where did you find it out of interest?

I dont think it works for evo.. just keeps saying copy failed

Can someone make a flashable zip? My adb is screwed lol

The file in the OP is a flashable zip.

Cool didnt work for me ill try again

works amazingly fine & absolutely no lag

Does this one have settings like the one that comes with CM? For instance turning it all red? Thx

Heres a modded version. Changed the package name from com.android.wallpaper to com.android.wallpap23
After you install this you will see some doubles, but the new Nexus one will also be there
Signed so you can install as it as a normal /data/app apk. (no root)
Still needs froyo/2.2/sdk8, didnt change that.
Note: Would have removed the older live wallpapers and named it differently if apktool worked on it...maybe later.
To uninstall:
either: adb remove com.android.wallpap23
or: try to uninstall "Android Live Wallpapers" (Settings->Apps->...), only the user-app can be removed the default system app will fail to uninstall

Works great thanks!
Nexus One/XDA App

workx here, ill flash it via ra_recovery. Just turn off signature verify and it's was installed !

[Boot Screen] Android particle ring

Adapted from Dysgenic's original animations in this thread.
All I've done is changed the resolution from 480x800 pixels to 600x1024 pixels to make it fit the Galaxy Tab's screen better, all credit to the original author.
Use Root explorer to copy the file to /system/media/ and reboot to see it.

Did you put just the .ZIP file in there to overwrite the existing one as necessary, or did you extract it?

I placed the zip file in the in the directory. But there was nithing there to overwrite.

Found this.... dunno if it would help you on coding lockscreens or not.... thought I'd post it!!!

Unfortunately that won't help with much... this is a GB lockscreen with different icons/colors to look like ICS while that is an ICS lockscreen made to look more Honeycombish.

I thought it might be possible to find an XML entry for the positioning of the slider. I haven't messed with XML myself so have no clue.

Navigation Bar [TWEAK][CM10][Galaxy Ace Plus]

Here's the Navigation Bar that's there on the Nexus devices for your Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus (this might work on all phones. Not sure.).
Prerequisites: CM10 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38371660 OR http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155529) and a decent file explorer (such as root explorer) that allows you to access /system
Steps:
Step 1: Open Root Explorer
Step 2: Navigate to /system (Remeber to mount as R/W)
Step 3: Open build.prop
Step 4: Add this line of code
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Step 5: Save and exit
Step 6: Reboot
If you did the above mentioned steps properly then you should have the navigation bar enabled on your device

Just so you know this isn't my own work. I just thought it would be pretty neat to share it with you guys. Kudos to the guy who put this on the internet.
To remove the navigation bar from your device, delete the zero and replace it with one and then reboot your phone.
Please click the thanks button if I helped you or gave you a cool tweak for your device.

Yeah. This is the first time that I have tried playing around with the build.prop file. The screenshots that I have posted are from my device only. I removed the navigation bar by just deleting the line and rebooting.
