Themes and Apps for Xoom - Xoom Themes and Apps

Here we talk about themes and applications for the upcoming Moto Xoom!

Beeen messing with a 7' galaxy tab for the last couple of weeks, and have noticed only one non scalable app that doesn't fit the tablet, and that's engadget.
TweetDeck, and any of the main news and weather apps work and look fantastic. So can;t see why they won't fit 10'

This thing looks awesome already so i cant wait to see what the devs whip up to FURTHER increase the awesome. haha

I was pretty excited to hear Monster Madness ran well on it! Maybe the Sony suite might bring us some other ps3 quality games!

Existing apps in Android Market
Hi guys,
Has anyone seen a video and / or review or anything that shows how existing apps in Android market run on Motorola Xoom or any other 10" + screen size tablet.
kindly share your experience.
Thanks.

SpeedX updated for the Xoom can't wait to see how that plays.

yes I've used all these and many more many times over including the cool ones that dont work due to incompatible resolutions like vr tunnel, seeds of life, circuit board, pano planet earth rot ect...you have to work your mojo to get them to stick and they often wont stick forever (just turning off your screen will cause many of these to revert back to your last static wallpaper) but they can be made to stick long enough to impress your friends. the ONLY live wallpaper I've tried that absolutely will not work is Silhouette. It does a funky split screen stuff that just wont behave no matter what. none of the samsung ports have ever worked on my phone either.
Thanks! Got some of these installed! Anyone else? Some really good ones there!

I was wondering if any of the aquarium LWP's worked. I tried the two aniPET ones, and they don't work, but the idea of having a virtual fish tank on your screen is kind of cool =]
Oh, and this one works too. Its the one I'm using right now. SMB FTW!

Edit: just installed the New York Giants one from WebApse. I don't know if the other one worked (from SilentDesign I think), but this one does. Even though the Giants have been done since week 17...still gotta love it =]
Can anyone tell me where I can get these and how I install them ?

first phone must be rooted and loaded with a rom that support live wallpapers (most froyo and eclair roms at this point). All the ones I listed are directly from the android market and most free.
It seems hit or miss which work and which don't some of those on the list didn't want to work on my phone.
Peace

some may have been updated to higher resolution, unsupported openGL (beautiful widgets weather for one) but for the most part all should work. I'm curious to which ones on the list didn't work for you.
thanks for this list. been hit and miss for which ones work on my rom. but good resource.
any that have updated to OpenGL ES wont work or wont work well:
Beautiful Widgets (old works great but if you dont have it backed up cant get it)
Nexxus Revamped (same. old works great, new is OpenGL ES)
list will probably get larger. do NOT do update if you see the update includes OpenGL ES (both the above describe in update description).
Anyone have The old nexus revamped?

I second this. It would be a great addition to my gallery and a nice change.

[APP] Honeycomb music player

Tested and works on the fascinate.
I personally like the miui app better but you might enjoy this. Looks like the image gallery lol

Edit: seems to take up alot of resources..see what you think. I get lag when using it..you might not.
SCH-I500 - Froyo DL30/Transparent Myst 4
Love the app. But i've tried many times before, this phone just does not handle it good. It ruins music with skipping/studdering. Which is surprising because its fine on the inc. But you cant even play music and load a webpage. Its just a cool looking thing but will definitely require a more finalized build to make it even acceptable
agreed.

Pewpew2

Pew pew is a great game for xoom. Very addicting.
#2 costs like 2$. I'm going to download it and ill let you guys know how it is on the xoom!

First thoughts, nice to support the dev.
All the original game modes are still there, adds campaign, and 3 new challenge modes. Nice large update, but that's what it is... an update.
I reccomend it! I know ill be playing it for hours tomorrow haha.

he could have used a better naming scheme, PewPew Lite/Free and PewPew rather than the one and two monikers. Still, one of the absolute best games out for android and I have actually grown to like it even better than geometry wars. I have also noticed some graphical touches not present in the original pewpew like the 3d oscilatting background in certain menus. Also much more music, I like the remix of the main theme. The campaign is imaginative and a fresh break from the challenge modes. Speaking of which, the new ones are pretty aweseme like "highway" for example, a massive circle of rotating enemys and you have to play in traffic to chase after a ball. This is my favorite game for android. No question. Especially for the Xoom!

[THEME][EC05][5/15/11] Portal 1 & 2 COMING SOON

So, I have all the art and the ideas....now just getting all it down on paper and doing my best to make a killer theme wether your a portal fan or not. The idea is a portal theme mirroring the 1st game nice and clean and then portal 2 being darker and run down...mirroring the 2nd game.
Please be patient with me in that I am married....like that's not enough right there, and I also work full time and run a home recording studio. This is my first theme but it is to be a colaboration with a few established themers you know and love. I will handle the art and concepts, they will handle the programming.
Please feel free to post ideas that you have and also if anyone out there knows how to make and or edit widgets & LWP.....hit me up.
UPDATE!
A deep appology to anyone who may have been anticipating this Theme. I forgot to post that I had a flood and lost my beloved laptop a few months back. I did pick one up recently and plan to resume, all be it from scratch. Im not sure if I should roll with EC05 or a GB build since things have changed from when I started this thing. Any difference as far as difficulty between creating a theme in Froyo or GB?
UPDATE 2!
I aquired an ET4G and will be making this theme for that device instead....
Good luck man. Take your time bro. Family and work comes first.

Portal 2 boot animation.
Man I love the idea I'm actually just playing thru portal 2 right now. If you could incorperate the "goo" colors that would be awesome.

Agreed, just a splash of orange, blue and white here and there...

Keep the ideas coming people
I am trying to think of something in the way of widgets for the goo, not sure how to incorporate. I would like to have a clock widget that resembles the nuero toxin countdown in Glados's chamber as well.
I have my work cut out for me. Been reading up on proper implementation when it comes to graphics on the android dev site. Pretty intense, anyone interested in some side projects ie: widgets and lwp?

Mizuu Movie Manager

I found this awesome movie manager for anyone running Honeycomb at the moment. Michell Bak, the developer, said he is working on a version for GB and Froyo as well. Check it out if you haven't already.
Thanks!
Yeah, it is pretty slick! I will probably get the paid app when I get more titles on my tablet. I have noticed that the widget does not load the images until the app is opened...does ths happen for anyone else?
Purchased my copy of app
This app is awesome. Really makes my tablet complete when its movie night with the wife. Visually it looks amazing and functions very well.
