Hamster-powered Clock Widget

I don't know how many of you browse the XDA Portal (the XDA Developers homepage) but they always have the newest and coolest things featured from teh forums there. I found this one submission and I thought I'd post it here to help him gain some more momentum. If anyone knows a Dev with some spare time or the know-how to get this project rolling, refer them to this thread here!
This is the XDA Portal article: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/hamster-powered-clock-project-for-android-needs-help/
This is the original thread complete with drawings of the hamster and more: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=819988

And now I'm working a porting a popular theme (i can't tell you which theme it is yet) to cm6 and cm7, also making my espresso rom sense, and releasing v1.2 of my tweak/mod for bl & mp versions and releasing v1.0 of the mp & bl versions for the entire androids community (those will be non specific to android phones), and I'm working on my gingersense rom and making the setup less time consuming (basically making the theme setup by default flash of the rom), also I'm porting a rom to our heroes (can't tell you yet), also I'm compiling my own rom and making a custom kernel, not to forget helping/finishing PMGrands rom
.....so I guess you can call me the multi tasking master

That's what I'm up to

Is this really kifno's theme? Or is this the android 7 port that andyriot posted?
It sure looks like the same as the android 7 themes... what makes this different enough to get its own thread?
Seriously, did you just start a new thread to make it look like this is YOUR work?
How many times do you have to apologize before you start thinking before you act?

There are many other threads that contain the icon pack for the android 7 theme. All this is my custom icons for mdpi devices with my own custom dimensions for the android 7 theme. So this is my work just the method of applying it isn't. I did nothing wrong bro, I learned my lesson already.
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA Premium App

not tryna be rude or anything.. but this isn't your theme.. its just an ICON PACK u made..
this was done back in sept 2010 found here
and i even created an "ICON" pack found here back in sept..
its been done many times over and probably doesn't hold much interest anymore.. but to start your OP off with "Kifno's LauncherPro Theme" isn't the right way to go about it..
also.. you could use some pointers in creating your icons, cause most of them either look stretched or squeezed..

The thread I mention has many people posting their icons. Currently yours is the last post on that thread. It says you are almost done with your icons.
Now... you made a new thread to show off your work and separate it from the 30 page thread full of other peoples contributions.
I think you need to ease back on how proud of yourself you are. This seems to be kifnos icon set for a theme, more than kifnos theme. Just like your roms... they aren't your roms, they are your mods to existing roms.
So far you aren't a themer or a dev, yer just a modder. A modder who seems really full of himself, who makes long posts telegraphing his long term plans to anyone who will read it.
Your skills are being overshadowed by your boastful self-importance.
Sent from my HTC Hero CDMA using XDA App

I'm not trying to be full of myself I'm really not, sorry if I come off that way at times. I'll just ask a mod to delete this thread and take down my icon pack I don't want any problems

Hey Kif please don't leave us! Just give respect to other devs. When using their work. I like you sticking around Kevin?
Sent from my HTC Hero CDMA using XDA App

Mondays are good too. Still fresh.
Kifno, I think you should try not to spread yourself too thin. This forum needs thinking and enthusiasm and will reward creativity - but there are too many informed people to try and embellish ones creations.
It's quality not quantity that counts most. Focus and let your work be your voice and not your voice.
People here are actually trying to help you with developing and with life in general. You don't have to be "the best", be your best and just relax and focus.
Don't take your ball home- just play smart. And whatever you do, don't try and sell your story on these threads and don't come off as a victim- you will lose respect, not gain it. You're young and have a lot of time.
Also, don't break your neck doing head spins.
Good luck.

Preview/Test Rom :P

So I'm opening this thread here for two reasons...one because I will eventually throw a test build out here as this is in alpha stages even if the video shows otherwise lol and 2 because I know most of you guys are like "erikmm is a bum he hasn't put out a new rom or an update to his roms in over 12 hrs " lol.
So this is a sneak preview of what I've been working on so far behind the scenes.
It's a port of the whole Value Pack from Sammy to the i9000... since they don't want to give us a Value Pack I took it upon myself to give us the Value Pack we deserve. Ok ok I know most of you guys didn't even read my little rant and are watching the youtube video. Lol
Well here it is:
Edit: the videos it previews or suggest are f'n hilarious lol

Downloads will eventually come up here as soon as I hit the beta stages.
So far:
I finally got /data to work *not the actualy internet as I can't even test that lol *
I can now install apps and have them save to the /data/app/ destination and
of course that means wifi is working

wtf man!

to your first thing "wtf man!" what do you mean? lol
and for your second one this rom will be released as a stock rom..i know it's themed now bc I was bored and wanted to test some stuff lol. BUT I do plan on porting FaceLock to my miUI build for sure...but that might be a mission in itself, if it's easier than I think than I'll put it on all of em

*speechless*

Can't wait

Although is is a bml rom, your name should be erikmmm(three m's)
ERIK MASSIVE MTD MANUFACTURING! :0

Nice work bro! ....I'm all giddy about this face lock and all the goodies you pack into these awesome roms

Question
Does that include the BIG Ram optimization from the I9000 which leaves almost 300 MB free on the stock Rom?

If not, I'm not sure it's worth the effort if you intend to port the face unlock anyway. Photo retouching photo editor was already put by me in the apps &themes section and in Hebrew Valhala.

Once you have a base rom like cm7 its easy to port roms. Easy being a simple word in this case. You still have to run debug logs but a lot of it is copying from one rom to the other. There are several guides out that explain how to port the various roms. Search the main android development thread you will find the guides posted there.

Um....whenever the rom is 100% usuable I throw it out there for people to try out. I don't see the point of sitting on them. The only reason I've been dishing out **** like crazy is BC I lost my job at the end of may and was out of school these last 2 weeks.

eollie,
You can't port BML roms with a cm7 base. Just FYI, so that doesn't work for this situation.

Dont think Im taking away from what you are doing. I know your not doing these port exactly how the guides suggest. I was just saying using cm7 for a base makes it about 75% easier to port. Seeing as how you dont have to convert samsung proprietary things.

Android Ideas - Bringing Your Ideas To Android

Hi everyone,
I'm here to introduce a new site that will hopefully help Android grow.
I have created Android Ideas (android-ideas.com) as a place where users can post their ideas, and developers can make them come true!
I have had some ideas in the past, but have not been able to bring them to Android, as I'm not a developer (like most people). The site is here so developers can come and read other users ideas and build the app/theme/mod into android.
All the user has to do is sign up and post the idea, I will then do the rest. The developer can come a long and look through the ideas without signing up. Developers can also follow @Android_Ideas on twitter for the latest idea posts!
I have started the ball rolling by posting a couple of ideas myself! Please post yours to help the site grow!!
If you would like to use the above banner in a signiture (but smaller), please copy this;
HTML:
[URL="http://www.android-ideas.com"][IMG]http://www.android-ideas.com/images/AI-Logo-small.png[/IMG][/URL]
You're welcome to put "user of" or something like that!
Any questions, please ask...
Thanks, Matt
