Hi everyone!
I made a replica of the watch from the pause menu in GoldenEye 64 for my SmartWatch using an app from the Play Store and 3 simple .png files.
Thought I would share in case I wasn't the only person who thought it was kinda cool haha!
The app you need is this... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kaybit.smartwatch.customwatch&hl=en_GB
Then download the attached .rar file, unpack and copy to somewhere on your phone. I copied them all over in a folder so that once it was all set up, I could add a .nomedia file to the folder so the files wouldn't show in the Album.

[Tutorial]
Im sure you can all work it out, it's quite simple but just in case you need a little guidance here it is
Install the Custom SmartWatch app.
Once installed open its settings from your SmartWatch app list.
Tap on "SmartWatch 2 Settings".
Tick "Custom Ananlog Clock"
Tap "Create Custom Analog Clock"
Tap "Backgroundimage", search for the GoldenEye Background.png file and open it.
Tap "Hourhandimage", search for the GoldenEye Hour Hand.png file and open it.
Tap "Minutehandimage", search for the GoldenEye Minute Hand.png and open it.
That's it, however I also opened the "Battery Settings" and ticked "Activate Low Power Mode" so that the screen dims to grey scale to save power. You can have the watch display in colour all the time but the battery will last less than a day.
This app will automatically open itself on the watch if left idle so it replaces the stock clock app, and you'll still receive your notifications. Just tapping the screen will bring back the colour and light, pressing the home button will exit out to use other apps. You'll have to get used to doing that instead of pressing the power button like you would with the stock clock app because this is technically a running app and pressing the power button on the watch will close it and bring back the stock clock.
Enjoy!
[UPDATE] After using my GoldenEye design for a few days I noticed that when you tap the screen to make it light up again to read it and show the colour of the background, it took quite a few seconds. After contacting the developer of the Custom SmartWatch app and talking to him over the last couple of days, he has been amazing and updated the app to better support this kind of design.
The app now has a few more options under "Battery Settings" and if you enable "Monochrome Mode" and the "Faster Screen On" settings, the clock will still dim to grey scale saving battery, keep the background visible but will light up a lot quicker after tapping the screen. Feels far more responsive!
Credit to Kaybit for his awesome app!
Nicely done
I wasn't aware of the app before, I'll give it a try and use your base as a template.

Thanks, glad you like it .
Yeah it's a pretty cool app, I had it with my SmartWatch 1 but it was never as customisable as this. I noticed that it had been given an update and tried out the new options and ended up with this. To be honest if you have even just a little Photoshop knowledge the possibilities are endless!
Nice one keyz86 - thanks for the files!

This is pretty cool man! Nice to see this sort of thing going on over here - we can't let those Pebblers have all the fun now can we?! It's just a shame that notifications don't appear as normal using a custom watch face but obviously, the finger is aimed at Sony for that.
Well done bud, this is definitely something I will be showing my friends ha ha

This is AWESOME! Is it possible to use a digital clock display instead?
I installed it, it works when I tap the screen, then it goes to low-power mode for half a second, then blank screen. What can I set so it stays in low-power mode?

[Updated]
Added button to change ringer state: Silent, Vibrate, Normal
NOTE: You cannot change ringer/notification levels with the widget if ringer state is in Silent or Vibrate. You will notice the icons fade out.
Enjoy!
Hey everyone. I developed a small widget to quickly change volume levels for media, ringtone, notification, and alarm. I find myself wanting to turn media volume on/off all the time, and I couldn't find a good solution in the Market, so I made my own.
You can download it from the Market. Just search for Mission Control. There is an SD version (G1, Hero, etc), and an HD version (Evo, Nexus, etc).
If you guys find any bugs or have suggestions for it, just let me know. This is my first Android app, so please be gentle.
Mission Control HD.apk (right-click Save As)
Mission Control SD.apk (right-click Save As)

This is pretty nice. The sound board to the right doesnt work for me on the EVO. What is it supposed to do?
Nice, could you use some iPhone icons by any chance?
Nice handy little app. I just downloaded from the market and put it on one of my panels. I like the three level toggles. this will be great when at the theater or a meeting and want to turn everything off really quick.
Thanks for the app!

The control panel is non-functional at the moment. My plans are to use it to allow a user to fully customize a button to do anything they want, along with choosing any icons they want as well.

I looked around for some good iPhone-style icons, but couldn't find any that I liked. I'll continue to search and see what I can come up with.
Only other thing I would like to see, is when you press one of the toggles that it changes your phone settings to vibrate, silent, etc.

Cascade mode
GREAT looking app! Only problem, when using it (HD) with launcher pro (on EVO), the widget gets disbled when going into cascade mode. i don't know if it has anything to do with my phone having "Sense" banned (using DC 3.2.3) or the devopment of the widget just doesn't have cascade support yet.
keep up the good work

Thanks for the observation. I'll try it out and see if I can fix the bug. Appreciate the comments.
Finally, good russian developer beshkenadze created widget that disables keypad backlight..
1) Requires root
2) Keypad backlight is enabled back when you suspend and resume Galaxy Tab
3) Works for about 30 sec first time, don't worry.. It will ask for root permissions at that time. After that it works immediately..
Take it from
Android Market Web
Awesome, works great!
Turns off backlight okay.

Now if.someone could just find a way to link it to a button, and make it turn on and off. We would be in buisness. I know it doesnt turn the lights back on yet.
Or, after it is able to turn lights on and off, link it somehow to the touchscreen.

It can turn on lights, and will after some work..But dev is not going to make it react on touchscreen and work with timeout..
Update, now widget contains two buttons - turn on and turn off
It saddens me that the light wont STAY off after locking and unlocking the screen.
Otherwise, it works!

I agree. The widget needs some work, it is rather unattractive as it is right now. I didn't even understand there were 2 sides to the widget until reading this thread.
IMO, it should be more like the Power Control widget. A toggle style button.

Delete widget and add again.. That's bug in launcher, widget shows as 1x1 after update, but it is 2x1 now.. And shows two normal icons..
Ah, I see. I would still prefer a 1x1 toggle style widget. Eating up 2 home screen icon spaces for something like this is a bit much.
Ugh, new widgets are ugly. Takes up.way too much space.
Preferred lightbulb widget.

You're right, apparently theres no actual search option buuuuut if you go to categories then decoration and scroll until you find the one on the right hand side of this screenshot. Of course it might not be on the right hand side when you look but you should find it eventually.

Hi guys,
I work at Everything.me and it's great to see you like out beta so far
We intend to polish the UI and improve performance and functionality.
Are there specific things you would like to see in the next updates?
A few popular suggestions we got are adding folders to the app drawer, scrollable dock, unread badges for app icons and adding sound to search (we only did that in the video ) .
Pretty clever concept.
have yet to download it to see how well it works.

It'd be nice if the image/wallpaper that pops up when you search would be changed randomly.
Not just the same pic all the time.
Like if you search beyonce, it'll show different images of her in the background every time .
Oh and also more options;
- Enable/disable scrolling of wallpaper.
- Choose # of grids (icons in home and app drawer)
Basically most other options you'd find in a typical launcher..
Thanks!

Just got done doing an hour's worth of PhotoShop, trying to throw a background together for the new DIZMAL launcher I'm making for anyone who has the Blu Kuban ROM.
This is a pre-alpha HD image. Designed at 441ppi and a resolution to match the GS4 screen. Feel free to use it for personal use if you'd like.
"DIZMAL BLUE" is the official color, loyally following the "blue" in Blu Kuban.
However, I pushed out a few other basic colors if anyone would like to use them. Enjoy! Click the names to download.. images are just color previews.

Oh yea. The only reason I released these images is because they're pre-alpha. The next step in PhotoShop is to design the home screen layout and map where buttons will go on the S4. It's gonna be sweet.
Not to mention that visuals are only one part of DIZMAL. I'm doing a lot of stuff with the app itself, including automation, custom windows, voice control, etc...

This is a mock up of what I'm going for. Definitely not the final design. For the first few versions the widget buttons will be embedded on the background as a single graphic. I use Buzz Launcher to control their actions.
When DIZMAL is released it will be an all-in-one minimalistic app that use Buzz Launcher functionality to completely replace your home screens.
DIZMAL ALPHA TEST SCREEN
Like I said, not sure if that's the style I'll end up with, but I like it so far.

Woah, cool your jets there, skippy.
If you had read AND interpreted my original post you would know I'm making both a custom homepack for Buzz Launcher as well as an app to go with it that includes custom menus, settings, etc. Buzz Launcher is awesome by itself for visuals, but I can only go so far with the functionality.
So when all is said and done I will be release the DIZMAL app + the Buzz Homepack.
I'm trying hard to make the app so you don't NEED the Homepack if you don't want it. But for the first couple releases I can almost guarantee that you'll have to use both of them together to get the best visuals and benefit.

Lol embarassing response there buddy I asked a question, no one attacked you.
I was asking a question for clarification - the way you wrote it and how I interperted it was that it was a homepack that you created WITH custom menus and etc - as in you did some magic with UCCW.
Key thing was that I interperted that DIZMAL as the name of the homepack. No need to lose it over a honest question.

Everyone knows that feeling when someone asks to use your phone but you're afraid to let them because they can go through everything on it. This is a serious privacy issue within Android; there is no easy way to lend others your phone without them being able to go through it. That's why I created Obstructer, an app for Android that blocks access to your device's content when you let others use your phone. It works by disabling the home button, the recent app screen and the notification bar. This makes everything on your phone inaccessible until you enter a password that opens when the call is ended.

This is pretty good. Could you please upload the apk to your OP so that people without Play Store access can download it as well? Thanks.

Hello,
I've tried this app on my Xperia Z1 Compact and I have a few security flaws: The recents button is not disabled and when using Google Keyboard, you can long press the spacebar to get into the settings app. Also, you should probably disable the camera button. The lockscreen is a major security flaw too :/ Oh yeah, and I forgot to add that it shows the Sony dialer when calling a number

Mostly works as intended.
The main weakness of this app is that one can easily uninstall the app by going to settings from a insecure lockscreen.
A lock widget will be a great idea.

That's interesting, it has worked on every phone I've tested. Did you set it as the default launcher?

Huh, I never thought of that scenario. I will totally create a widget for this; that's an excellent idea. Thanks!

Can't emergency call be used in these cases too? or does android set a time limit/phone number limit on these calls?

Emergency call can only be used to call emergency numbers, such as 911 or 112.

Did you set it as the default launcher? This is the source of the problem most of the time. Also, it has to use the phone's dialer; there's no way that can be changed unfortunately. The lockscreen issue has been brought to my attention and I will create a default lockscreen to solve this problem.
Very nice

Of course I have set it as default...
Well, nice try, but I guess this app will never be completely secure
Updated Icon/Banner
Hello OP, I am a graphic designer and I go about helping others creating new Icons or just making their current ones a bit better.
I took the time to edit your current icon and make it look a bit more detailed. I sure hope you like it if not its fine I do this for fun not a living :fingers-crossed:
Updated Banner:
Updated Icon:
On the new icon I could not fix the way the top two icons look a bit darker than the bottom ones.. I may have to redo this process.
But it sure does look better than before IMO :good:
Also if you need anything else just let me know. I can edit and email it to you whenever.

Sorry about that. Until the Android security policy changes, that's the only way your phone can be locked :/

Eh, I love the new icons you made. The thing is, the "x" was designed to show how the app blocks your access, which is why it looks squared off. Plus I really don't like flat icons. Make the red darker, give it a more 3D look, make a squared "x" and I'll consider it.
home button problems
There is a problem on xperia z1. I can exit app by just pressing "home" button (with "backward" button no problems).
