I've made my own minimal icons to mimic the ones by Ultralinx, but in black.
I thought you guys might want them, I think they look a lot better with themes like Revolution that have very dark status bars.
Two PSD files, a font, and a readme file are included to help you make your own icon.
You need to use desktop visualizer to apply these icons, and use astro to choose the file instead of the gallery, because the background of the previews in the gallery is the same color as the icons and you cant tell which is which

What clock widget are you using?

SiMi Clock
Ok, I use SiMi Clock too, but how are you getting an extension of the vertical line in SiMi? Which beautiful widgets weather skin is that?
What weather widget is that you're using?
Confused.
Im sorta at a loss here, I have used to Desktop Vis. as well as setting up me icos side to side of the "Launcher Pro" home icon. How do I change that one and get the "Launch opition for the Apps menu".
Im currently running 1.4.1 Blackhole with Launcher Pro.
Do I need to Uninstall Launcher Pro and then apply?
Also how are you getting the extension of the black line on SiMi??
EDIT: The weather is Beautiful Widgets and the skin is called "Tick"
Still can't figure out how to get the extension of the line down and how to pull the weather all to one side, I'm still getting it all the way across with NO black line.
Also whats the Wallpaper your using? Looks really nice together.

I used Launcher pro (needs to be the pay version, free doesn't support resizing).
Add the weather widget.
Add Simi clock.
Position the weather widget where you want it to be
Hold on the Simi clock widget to activate launcher pro's resizing.
Drag the box down as far as you want.
The line should extend down as far as the box is drawn.

What's the widget for the time/weather?
Yes, what's the widget ???
Think its Beautiful Widgets, aint it?
Nice work!
Can you post a link to what is used for your notification bar icons? I really like the look of those.
Thanks!
Clock widget is SiMi clock, weather widget is Beautiful widgets.
The notification icons are part of the Ultimate revolution theme for samsung fascinate: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=830410
What background is that? It looks sweet.

youve got a nice line extension for the simi clock amazing, how did you get that, also how did you manage to completely change the WHOLE home screen? No little dots at the top of the screen showing you what page youre on, no shortcuts on bottom besides the apps, msg, and phne of course, im just confused as to how you got it sooo customized?

Launcher Pro Plus most likely.
It replaces your default launcher and allows you to resize widgets among other things. Find it in the market.
Bump.
Please let us know how you did that screen, I love it.
I think you are using SiMi Clock, Beautiful Widgets and Batt Stat.
What I can't figure out is how you extended the line down, the wallpaper, or the notification bar.
Icons are awesome as well.

Extending the line is done with LauncherPro Plus. It allows you to resize any widget by long pressing and releasing
The notification bar has to be built into the ROM he is using, or is a Morph (search metamorph) that changes files.
that's awesome
thanks!
Can you share the wallpaper please? Thanks!
looks great! good work

Minimalist text or tajm.
Get beautiful widgets, they have a lot of differnt clocks to choose from. It's on the market place.
I can think of two
mClock
and
Clockr
Minimalist text is great, so many options and it's not just a time widget.it's battery and date too...
Thanks all. I tried clockr and minimalistic text. I like the latter.

Ohshi I never realized that...but that requires using a custom layout and I haven't the slightest clue how to do that hence why I just use the pre-defined layouts let lol
Semi sorta how to on Minimalistic Text
Minimalistic Text:
{
"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"
}
Where it says Predefined layout, choose Custom and then click on Custom layout.
Once you're in the Custom layout, you can drag those boxes in the top down to the dumpster.
Now the 3 icons that are to the right of the layout on top are from top to bottom :
Add Type > Which shows at the Bottom (Date, Battery, Clock, Weather, Misc.)
Add Row > Allows you to add another row (example Top row Clock, Bottom row Date)
Delete Row > Allows you to delete a row.
So, whatever type you choose, there are a lot of options. You just drag those boxes up to the top of row.
In the 1st screenshot under Custom layout is Text Style, you can play with those to set the different text styles and at the bottom you can preview your Widget.
Hope this helps a little bit!
Guys..
Dont even bother with minimalistic text. I love SiMi Clock.

minimalist text > simi clock.
it's all opinion my friend. but when minimalist text can do clock, date, weather, battery in any layout you want, it is far better than simi clock, again, in my opinion.
Weather & Toggle Widget, Weather Widget Forecast Addon is good one also..
Minimalist Text is very flexible.
Once you learn how to move around it, the options are endless.
Here are the icons I have been working on for the past few days. Credit for the original HD Icons goes out to mikebeecham for his icons which can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=828832
I just simply made a "matte glass" template and imported his icons. I did one for almost ever app that I use on my homescreen, so there are a few major ones missing. However, inside this .rar file you will find a Photoshop template. Just download the original HD icons, import the desired icon into the "icon(REPLACE)" layer, resize to fit, save as a .png with transparency (its important that you enable transparency) and copy to SD card. To get the most out of these icons, use Desktop Visualizer. Download from the market, install, and add a 1x1 widget to the desktop for each icon. Pressing it will bring you to the settings for that widget. Simply browse to the file on your SD card, select the desired app, use no text and a transparent label, and your good to go. Below are some screens of my current setup to show you how they look in use. Please enjoy, and upload pics of any icons you create so we can all see!
Thanks guys. -Steve

You need to use
A. An app that allows custom shortcut icons like folder organizer or bettercut.
b. A lot of work that will break updates from the market on a lot of apps.
A. Tends to be the better choice.

Yeah i search all the time for an app drawer replacement that will let you do just that... it doesnt exist.. and i dont know why. The one way i did it was to use folder organizer, replace all the icons with folder organizer. Then take a folder organizer folder with all the apps in it and drop it on my dock in place of the app drawer in launcher pro. Basically used a folder as my app drawer. It did the job but was still a pain in the ass.

Hope this helps. Its a fairly involved process, but as for now, i'm pretty sure it's the only way to do so.
looks pretty good might try it out
Maybe I'm just missing something, but it seems like there's a severe lack of decent looking, customizable grid style calender widgets. With so many other "minimal" style widgets for everything under the sun, why doesn't something like this exist?

No need for month/days of week text, ugly headers or crazy amounts of frills, just a really basic 1px bordered grid with a transparent background.
Any suggestions? Closest things I could sorta find were:
Month Calender Widget: I like how small and basic it is, but there's no transparency options and it doesn't really have a visible lined grid.
Android Pro Widgets: Full featured, but much visually bulkier and text heavy than I would like like. There's a few more customization options in the paid version but from what I could tell they wouldn't really give me what I want. Someone also suggested a skin for this existed that was exactly what I wanted, but I can't find it.
Thanks to anyone who could point me in the right direction!

Thanks for the suggestion, but there's no grid option, is there? I know there's a million minimal calender widgets out there, but i'm specifically searching for a minimal grid-style calender widget.

Android Pro Widget with Lucid theme
I have used Beautiful Widgets for my home screen widget for quite some time but now the clock does give the correct time and its geolocation does not update. Looking at the app store there are multiple reports of similar problems and the dev does not seem to be updating the app now. Screenshot attached.
Are there any similar easy to use widgets to give a similar HTC sense clock appearance and weather? In particular I need added functionality such as being able to customise multiple areas to click and open certain apps. I've looked on the app store and the closest I found was the 3D flip clock but like some others I tried the widget does not fill the whole area and leaves a space on the sides and below on my Note 9 screen which looks awkward.
Cheers for any suggestions.
You can give HD Widgets a try. It is customizable and you can probably get close to what you need. It has time and weather (temp current weather and forecast)
It has clickable areas for the clock, weather forecast
You can also set up specific apps for each clickable location.

I agree. I use HD Widgets for clock/weather & then stock Samsung calendar/appointment widget. Hope this leads you to finding something that works for you.

I use BW as well and this was happening to me until I went in to Settings>General >Weather data provider and switched it to AccuWeather instead of using Weather Underground. Weather Underground doesn't work for me at all, but AccuWeather works just fine. I hope this helps.
Thanks for the replies! I managed to get beautiful widgets working by going to "Optomise battery usage" in phone settings and switch this OFF for the widget, now all working again! If it stops then HD widget looks similar and slick!
