[Theme][ICS]Email widget dark skin

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.
C.

Font option. Perhaps.

Is it possible to save pictures without sending them?
Congratulation for your work, BTW! Fantastic App!!!

Cool concept! Really loved it but then i have a small issue that when a image is selected, the image is kinda zoomed or focused right to the center of the image! Can you incorporate a cropping of the selected image feature!
All the very best! Im sure your application will be loved by all
Sent from my GT-N7100 using XDA Free mobile app

I like the concept.
+1 for saving the picture before sending/share it.

Hi @donniemceduns, I really love this app. But.....is this devolopment stopped ? I hope it's not. :fingers-crossed:
Anyway, I just noticed something, some of the emoji & stickers are blur, some are crystal clear. Could you please fix it so that all the emojis & icons are crystal clear just like HD.
For example: ( these are the clear ones )
And these are the blur ones.
Last but not least, can I have a suggestion ? I think you and your team should make a "resize & move & rotate" feature to this app when we are picking our photo. This is because I used to pick photo from my gallery, but every time my photo didn't insert in correctly, sometimes it's too big for it, and sometimes it's placed horizontally which means I can't rotate it. Hence, I can't use this app to edit my photo.
Hope that you look into my suggestion and comments. Really appreciate you work. Looking forward to your updates. Thank you.

[APP][4.0+] PixelBomb Beta - Create awesome glitch art

View attachment 2936335
Update 9/20/14: Implemented some features a lot of people were asking for:
GALLERY VIEW - view, share, and delete your images from directly within the app.
RECENTS VIEW - quickly switch back to frequently used images
Some minor UI tweaks and bug fixes. New icon!
Update 9/15/14: I've just released an update that should fix the FCs on pre-4.4 phones!
Hi guys, first time I've posted on XDA in a very, very long time.
I've just released PixelBomb Beta. PixelBomb is a pixel sorting app, the only one for Android as far as I know. What is pixel sorting? This is pixel sorting:
{
"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"
}
It's a method of rearranging pixels in an image to achieve a cool glitchy effect, pioneered by Kim Asendorf. Check out reddit.com/r/glitch_art and reddit.com/r/pixelsorting for more, if you're into it.
I actually released this app a few days ago, and today released an update that improved speed by a factor of 25. Java be slow, C be fast.
Anyways, if you want to check it out, please do, here's a video (warning: music) if you want to see how it works.
Download here: Play Store link
I'm here to answer any questions, feature requests, etc.
Questions about development? Ask away.
Need help? Ask.
It is still in Beta, there are still some crashes occurring out in the wild, so if you get one, please let me know ASAP! Speak up on here, or use the feedback button in the app. I'm doing my best to make this a really great app, I'd love to have feedback from the community,
Thanks for looking. :good:

The $0.99 price tag on the Pro version is not going to last much longer - the app is almost out of beta! Snap it up while you can still get it for cheap!
Get PixelBomb Pro Beta on Google Play

In free version is not possibile work with photos from sdcard.

New UI in Google Play Store

I opened the Play Store this afternoon and found that the UI had been remotely altered once again, without an actual update of the store.
This isn't new though. This same UI was pushed by google back in April, and then too, I had received it, but only for a few days or so.
All it does mainly is change the app screens, and the main suggestions screen along with the search results remain more or less the same.
{
"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"
}

To upload screen shots.
First upload the image here: Postimage.org
They will provide a link, just copy and paste it in the thread.

I guess you are talking about the new - mostly white - UI. It goes inline with the changes made to Chrome, Google Photos, Dialer, Contacts, Calculator etc, the Material UI 2. Hopefully that means that a dark variant is on it's way. On subject the new design feels more "clean" and gives more focus to Ratings and reviews.

IMO, Material Design 2 isn't that great at all. Firstly, all that white makes it difficult to navigate, something which the colour coding certainly helped with, and also, I believe that all of that extra white will gobble up battery fast as well.
Again, that's just my opinion, yes.

Android 11 wallpaper bug/'feature'

I was holding off on updating, after getting the Android 11 notification a few days ago in the UK, as I couldn't see much user feedback on One Hyper upgraded to Android 11. But I updated it today and while it seems to be working OK (with seemingly no loss in general performance), I did immediately notice a bug/feature on wallpapers.
It doesn't matter which app you use to apply a wallpaper, the system seems to take over and crop the image. When you pull down the notifications bar it zooms back out to the original 1:1 wallpaper.
{
"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",

Forgive the quality of the above gif, I didn't want to overload the thread with a massive image. But you get the idea.
I did a Google search and it seems to be a common issue, at least on some Android 11 devices, I saw some archived reddit threads from 2020. It's a shame but thankfully there is a workaround (if a little clunky). Apparently live wallpapers escape this weird bug/feature, so with an app like KLWP you can turn a wallpaper (like some of the 1080x2340 formatted wallpapers I made) into a live wallpaper. Again it works but for such a simple thing, it's a shame you have to jump through hoops that weren't there in Android 10.

Eh, why do they need to do these things. I'm already really annoyed that the lockscreen overlays a color tone over the image, dampening all cool vibrant colors and contrast. When i now choose a lockscreen wallpaper i have to overdrive the colors and contrast before applying it to counter the tone.

is this a bug? I thought it was some new effect of the system, if you repair it well, when you are using the Motorola launcher and make the gesture to open the app drawer, the same thing happens.

Whether it's simply an annoying new feature or a bug, either way it would be nice if it was an option.
Again I'm able to use the KLWP app to get around it, but its a lot of extra hoops for such a simple feature (and not a particularly intuitive app to use).
