Looking at choices of clock skins in Beautiful Widgets, and now all photos/ icons are in my gallery. Is there an option or setting to prevent that?

insert a blank file called ".nomedia" into the directory.... hopefully BW will still see that there are skins there.

Hi all.
HTC hero has 2 ways of showing homescreen - 'touchflo' and 'home' when using 'home', there are some wallpapers available that are not available when using 'touchflo'
Any ideas where these are?
If you use the 'locale' app and use it to change wallpaper - it lists this other gallery.
Cheers
Press the 'menu' key.
this only shows the touchflo wallpaper though....
I've always wondered about this.
It seems like the wallpaper gallery is seperate from the rest of the galleries you find in the album.
For some reason you can't set the lock screen to have an image from the wallpaper gallery that the home screen uses.
The Lockscreen wallpapers lie under /etc/lockscreen/port. Just copy them to the sdcard, and you should be able to pick those.
But I haven't found the standard Android wallpapers.. Could they be in an archive or something? Or on the sdcard, hidden in a temp folder?
edit: found out it's a pain in the ass-droid to copy those files to the sdcard, so I just uploaded them to the web: http://fluesoppen.com/android/lockscreens/

Thank you for the clear icon!!!
I am currently using the free version of Folder Organizer. I haven't found a way in the free version to have icons on the home page without have titles display. I'd like to be able to have a nearly blank home page with hidden folders. Does anyone know if the full version supports untitled folder displays? Or, is there a folder app/launcher that allows icon only folders?

SiMi folder allows icons only. It's available in the market and it's free.
Works great! Thank you! The only thing I'd like to see in simi is the option to direct edit they folders without opening the app. Does anyone know if that's an option with adw ex?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894005 Thread for the app. Good place to look for any answer's.
Ive been messing with roms and boot ani's so much I've forgotten the app devs are on here too. LOL
I've been using simi folder since I started using android, but it isn't really tablet optimized. In fact, you can't even get it in the marketplace on honeycomb. I like the look of app organizers in folder appearance a lot more, but the icons are really really small and you can't disable the text on the widgets as far as I van tell. Simi folder lets you have larger icon sizes and disable the text. Are there options in app organuzer that I'm missing?

Give circle launcher a try. Many options, 2:20 in my video for how I use it:

I downloaded a 1280x800 wallpaper on Google images but when I go into gallery and press set picture as the picture is way to big and I can't fit the box around the picture..
Download Wallpaper Slideshow from Market. Use a file explorer program like ES or Root Explorer and make a folder called wallpapers. Move your wallpapers into that new folder and use the program to point into that folder. That should fix your problem.

Grab a copy of wallpaper wizard from the market. I had the same frustrations as you before I found it but now life is good

I found out about this recently
I found those programs to slow down the xoom a lot. Scrolling through homescreens goes jerky etc.
In the end I wrote my own livewallpaper that just sets a completely static image as the background at full resolution without any cropping. When you turn in portrait it uses the center third of the image.
I think the issue with the other apps is on every frame update they appear to reload the image so it is acutally doing full screen animation but with the same image all the time. I made my wallpaper only reload the image when the orientation changes.
It's pretty buggy at the moment as if you load a massive image it will force close due to lack of memory. Also the wallpaper picture doesn't reload until you change orientation. If I get time to sort these bugs I'll put it up on the market.
Matt.
Ok, so I wanted a better email app than the stock MIUI one, and everyone keeps recommending K9 mail. Thing is, I hate the app icon for it. I worked out that I should be able to use Desktop Visualizer to create a shortcut on the desktop which points to K9, but uses another icon.
Thing is I can create a widget using DV (Long press on screen, select DVwidget etc), however I can't place widgets in the launcher bar. I tried opening the DV app and trying to create a shortcut that way, but when I hit 'Ok' to complete the operation, nothing happens. It just returns to the homescreen and no shortcut is created.
To further complicate things I have had this work once. It just randomly appeared on the desktop a few minutes after creating it, and I was able to move that into the launcher. Now I want to change the icon (again) but as you can see, I'm not having much luck.
Am I missing something here? I know MIUI doesn't have shortcuts on it's desktop, but if that was the case I don't see how I could have got it to work at all?
Any thoughts?

Yeah, i'm thinking how an app icon can invoke such a strong emotion as hate for it. Could we get a screenshot? Share the hate
I do agree that the icon is kinda ugly .
That is a terrible icon ...

What i would suggest (this is what i used to do while using MIUI), is to use an application called "App Drawer" meant specially for MIUI.
Link t=1154299http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1154299
it is only as it states, an app drawer like all regular android phones.
This way you will have a dedicated app drawer & this will help in not cluttering up your home screens.
All icons on your home screen can be inserted into a single folder as these are the actual apps & not shortcuts.
Deleting would mean uninstalling.
so use the app drawer, send the shortcuts to your home screen & use any app for changing the icon like the ones inbuilt in ADW, Nova launchers.
...or you could just swap out the k9 icon for one you like. Use a theme (or make a blank one if you're fond of default) and theme the app name icon with a mail icon (or any icon) you think is nice
theme mtz - icons folder - use a .png and name it com.fsck.k9.apk
(if that doesn't work, the real app name is com.fsck.k9-1.apk)
