Thank you for your vote

Kinda old as Google had a black on the power save day, to be honest your example isn't the best black google derivitive i've seen, and from an ease of use on my eyes i'll stick with white
Just found this that's far more than just Google homepage uses Greasemonkey http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/12917

Starting today
I´l use tha black one!
Great to know about it!

Just one small thing
Its only going to be power saving on crt and oled screens any old standard LCD it doesnt make a difference, no?
Does look cool may try the grease monkey as it does igoogle

Guys.... This is so old!!!
BTW... I never has the google screen on my pc all the day!!!!! In that case we need All the Office and... all The web pages at black!!!! I stick with none i use BING.

My new homepage

This is only going to help of you have either a brand new LED backlight screen, or a truly ancient CRT.
Having the background black on a normal CCT LCD screen just means the backlight is being covered up by a dark LCD panel.
Basic physics at work everybody...

yeah only crt, plasma and led backlid displays will save any power from using the black google
it's cool enough but I use iGoogle so

AGREED. Bings sucks.
On topic, black google isn't as nice.

Black google.

The question posed in the title, "How will Google Look In the Dark?" My first thought was umm pretty much the same anything else lloks like in the dark.... Completely Black.
Do it now, turn off your monitor, close the Window Blinds and Turn of your light. NOw try and find your chair.

Lol!!
Hahaha!
Good one

I think it will be too dark to even see how it looks in the dark

I see some people have a gay prejudice here. And this is very childish! Why not have something gay? Gay can mean many things including bright, fun and joyful things! Or do you think only straight people use google? It is very likely that even very, very wacky people use it all the time!

the second one..lol.
word of advice, if you get one, NEVER i repeat..NEVER point your laser at your camera. i did it to my old SDA (with an even weaker laser) and it literally burned the camera. This is an old picture i found showing the burn marks, look at the pop can...
haha..poor sda...thats machine abuse!
i was always inclined to buy a laser..the blue/red looks cooler
but i need to do some research..they say its more "burnable"
as for the kaiser camera capability lets wait till the video drivers emerge
maybe it will improve the speed and maybe..just maybe improve the pictur quality
*fingers crossed*
oooh oooh...
btw i had the same foldable clock/alarm u have in the background
(behind the beer can)
that is untill my drunk gf launched a badly aimed dart at it...

Nearly All Completely Black!

I was looking through XDA site and it just dawned on me how black all the smartphones are! Isn't there any other colours suitable for smartphones or is it plain lack of creativity from the part of the phone companies? Or do they think all the smartphone users are boring geeks? I am tired of looking throught a list of black phones! I like the colours on Sony equipment.
I don't want boring white Magnolia (iphone?) either.
I'm bored!
Completely agree!
We should at least have the option of what color we want like when buying a car
We are paying a lot of $ for a new devices and agree, black is ok but we should have options!
I personally prefer my device being black, looks more professional and normal.
How's this for an option?

Ferrari red but with subtlety?
My neighbours' Audi colour? It is kind of ice or iron?
Or some of the Sony colours?
Or, maybe if I am really, really bored something this colour!
I probably would not lose it or people would always see it!
I'm kinda into Sky Blue...if u know what I mean
personally i prefer black as it looks elegant and professional.......
but you can have decent options like white,metallic silver etc
which do not look too childish or stupid
Why is black always considered "professional" or "elegant" ?
Is it because it reminds people of a suit? Or because your bum does not look big in it?
Or is it because it can hide a lot of flaws?
A design needs to be very good to look sleek in colour but a sameish weak design in black can get a thumbs up! Why is that? Lazy design?
Let's go colour the world! Let's put smiles on faces!

Wallpaper Needed Please

alright i have been trying to make this but my paint/shop skills are horrid. Anyways this is the concept.
1. Black background
2. Big close up of android guys face top half with his tentacles. You can barely make him out because its so dark. The only thing making light is his left eye. Which is the new droid eye. Its illuminating his face with tints of green.
3. At the top of the picture either in black or red it says "DOES" or something of the sort.
If possible i would want this for my phone and desktop lol. 1080. I know im being picky lol but i can see this in my head and i want it. But as said above im terrible. Im copyrighting this idea right now heh. Someone help pleaseeeee.

Can you clarify a bit about the first part of number two?
Yeah. I want it to be like android is in a all dark place and the Droid eye (the red eye) is illuminating his face. But you can still barely make him out. But you can see the eye fully like it's glowing. And at the top in android logo font it says DOES. As in Droid does. Hope this clears it up. Thanks for the question.

bump for more help pleaseeee
I'll give it a go. What phone do you have?
I'd be willing to give this a go as well. What is your screen size/phone? Also I think that if you're going to use the droid eye, maybe the android would be a reddish color. Green and red won't look that well together unless the green is almost non-existent(outline).
I think ill take a whack at this as well

Would it be too much, to ask this for a legend?, where the words and the droid, are centered on the middle screen and black, fading green to others?

WTF Gradient

Hey,
My Desire HD shows gradient wallpapers/pictures like it's 1994. While i'm in the browser everyhing is OK, but when i save the freakin pictures, i get someting like this (I'm not rootet, so i can't take screenshots. **** you Android!)

Why is this happening? I got 16 f****** million colors. If this is the best Android can produce, i'm going back to iOS.

U mad ?
LOL @ This thread.
The best application for setting wallpapers is Wallpaper Plus.
Wallpaper Set and Save also does the trick.
HTC Sense's Gallery Application is just as horrid as Gallery 3D.
Don't use either of them to set your wallpaper.
And if you really wanted to go back to iOS after running into that minor error you should because you certainly don't appreciate the choices you've been given. Unlike iOS Android doesn't come with the best applications out of the box. You're gonna have to get to know your phone and the system it's running. Android is extremely powerful and flexible. You can make Android anything you ever want. And you just made a thread about the bad banding Gallery gives and how you want back to iOS. It's .. amazing.

any app that can do this for the loockscreen?
This is due to surface dithering not being enabled I think. I'm trying to figure out how to turn it on on a ROM I'm building but no luck so far.

Newest photo's Nexus 4 spot in The Netherlands

Hi guys,
I thought you would find this interesting. There are 4 new photo's spotted by someone who shot them in a Media Markt/Saturn somewhere in The Netherlands. I found this on a Dutch site called Androidworld. Here are the photo's:

As you can see, this lucky guy managed to get and use the Nexus already. Discuss!
Probably a store manager who demo'ed it to some employees. There are additional apps, which shows at least a decent amount of time with the device. Perhaps someone carrying it around as a teaching tool?
I'm hoping it's there already though. I can't imagine it would be too difficult to go there (Heerhugowaard) and snoop around with some of the more knowledgeable-looking employees.

On my monitor it doesn't look that black, compared to the bezel. The Gnex in that sort of lighting would appear ink black.

I've heard this is the best screen for smartphones ever (on the optimus G, I guess its the same one..). So it should be amazing on blacks, whites, and everything in the middle. Oh, and super bright too!
Damn, it does indeed look like an AMOLED in terms of contrast!

Check out this table and see for yourself. It's definitely not capable of showing true black, but that was to be expected. The Nex4 does indeed sport the same screen as the [scratch Gnex, stupid me] Optimus G.
Edit: ^
Remember though, LCD screens will be blacker in light areas, but in a dark room it will show that off black we see, more like grey.
On the second photo, there's a folder named 'LG' on the homescreen. That's not bloatware is it??

Is that a typo? Surely the Nex4 is nothing like the Gnex. I, for one, will glad to see something similar to the One X, which many declare has the best screen of any smartphone.
