If you are talking about apps:
1. Android's Holo design guidelines itself provides best theme and GUI and looks really cool, and many popular apps now have adopted them like Whatsapp, Twitter etc.
2. jQuery Mobile also provides another way of design implementation on Android
3. ActionBarSherlock is another library resource for themeing.
Also, there should be even more ...
So I can use lets say Gimp and Inkscape to design my app.. right??

Hi!
I have the idea for an app for Android, the app replace the default “receipt of call” interface with some awesome minimal and colorful motion graphics. (holo style, for exemple)
Sadly i'm not a developer, i’m a videomaker/3D Computer Modeling and i can make all the different animation
Someone there can help me?
Thanks you so much!

For Android those animations are implemented using xml files, so they cannot be created using any software, but they have to created like any code does.
Hey guys,
I would like to know which vector design apps are the MOST POWERFUL with a LOT of features on Android? For example, desktop photoshop has a feature that curves texts, and this is a very uncommon feature for mobile art app cause they are pretty much lacking a lot of features. iPad has many more featureful apps in this area, but I want to buy an Android tablet because I design and publish themes for Android, and I want to stick with this OS for my phone and tablet to keep up to date.
I tried Medibang, but it seems to lack some important features like drop shadow and outline, but I don't know if it's just that I can't find it. I tried Autodesk Sketchbook as well, but that one is mostly drawing, and not creating logos, icons, etc.
So, what is the MOST POWERFUL vector designing app for Android tablets/phones?
Does Galaxy Note devices come with an app like this? How featureful is it, compared to desktop level apps like photoshop?
Thanks so much in advance for your help!

<b>E-Soft</b>, the maker of <b>MatCon - Material Icon Maker </b> brings to you an awesome way of editing your photos and design icons using lots of powerful tools in <b>LayerMask</b> for Android. LayerMask uses the concept of layers along with many pro level tools to design creative and innovative photos, icons and many more.
Play Store Link : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mask.layer.kali.ari.com.layermask
LayerMask allows you to layer, mask and blend any number of photos in layers to generate a final photo which will be a piece of Art. LayerMask is the first of its kind on Android because of the following features:-
Photo Editor: LayerMask comes with a number of tools like layering, image merging and blending, Photo tuning etc sufficient for creating a Pro level of photo editor which is not present in any other Android tool.
Icon Maker: Combined with a simple and intuitive Icon Maker tool for Android developers, MatCon, LayerMask has the capabilities of becoming the best Icon Maker. Design your foreground on LayerMask and simply push them to MatCon to generate your ic_launcher for different densities.
Note: Photo editing is a memory consuming task, so please adjust your preview quality and download resolution from Settings in LayerMask before complaining any random crashes. I have done my best optimizing memory.
<b>*Key Features*</b>
Image Editor
Unlimited Layers
Cut/Erase tool
Crop/ Rotate tool
Photo Scaling, Size and Horizontal/Vertical positioning
Image tuning using basic tools like brightness, contrast, temperature, saturation, sharpness, blur adjustment tools
Image blending, merge tools
Inner/ Outer glow, Shadows
Support for different resolutions
Icon Maker
Adding text
Inbuilt set of free and open source clipart and colored icons
Saving tasks to be worked upon later on
and many more....
<b>What's Next :</b>
1. I plan to provide a dedicated Image editor in the near future to allow adding inbuilt filters and a more powerful photo tuner along side our Layering tool.
2. Inbuilt set of backdrops and masks.
3. Ability to use custom fonts
I are not currently providing any inbuilt backdrops and masks as I want users to innovate and create their own masks and blend them into their layers. Try bringing the best out of creativity.
The idea for LayerMask came in while developing MatCon icon maker, to fulfill the need of adding layers into our Icons. But finally I thought of adding a simple photo editor in it to add awesomeness to each of the layers, which I plan to update in near future.
Why the pricing?
Well that's quite obvious, LayerMask as well as all the other Android apps from E-Soft has been developed single handed by a single developer and the pricing is just to support the development.
Trust me there might be flaws, but I plan to keep looking into your issues with my best as much as possible and too expect the same patience from your end.
Please let me know if you have used LayerMask to design icons or edit your photos. I would love to hear from you !!
Please rate the app 5 stars (*****). Please email me any issues before giving any negative feedback on Google Play Store. Again, please note that the app has been developed single handed.
Thanks for your support !!
If you have any feedback or questions, please email ( [email protected] )
No reviews?? !!

Hi Xda community!
I am developing Android game and I need Android GUI with basic Android apps (Messages, Contacts, Notes etc.) for it.
So I am looking for Android GUI with animations - best would be with each frame of the animaton on single separated frame (mainly due to possibility to edit those frames in Photoshop afterwards).
I only found Android GUI with static pictures but it seems that I cannot find anything with animations.
Do you know about anything like that? It could be even iOS or even some fake community made OS for phone.
Many thanks for every reply!
