[MetaMorph] A Small Touch Of Legend 8/31/10

I really liked how Legend added a bit of color to the tabs in Music, Clock, and others. Then I found that Fresh added even more color so credit goes to Flipz and also HTC for the original idea. Your Lockscreen Arch, your launcher, and yours tabs will change, also I have only tested this on PlainJane2.0 so morph at your own risk

What kind of png's would you add? And I'm proud to be one of the 3 users haha
Anyways, great job! Always the first thing I apply with a new rom.. I hope you end up adding to it but no rush.. I'd hate to see you get run off by unappreciative people.
Keep up the great work!

The only ones I can think of are ones for the HTC News app.. other than that, it looks like you've covered everything else

worked well with plain jane t2

worked awesome on xtrSENSE4.0.6.1; i'm really liking the extra glossy look plus the additional color!
p.s. in xtrSENSE, the little green fob that shows which home page you're on STAYS green, but the launcher itself gets glossy. Looks sick!

Has any tested this on a froyo rom

[preview] WP7 style icons SQUARED

As i am abit bored about my phones layout i made this "preview" of icons which i could make. Just want to get feedback for now, made a preview so you can see how it would look like. I will also write a short guide on how to get this done with ADW launcher and Desktop visualizer (both free apps on market)
here is the preview:
{
"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_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Hoping for some feedback till tomorrow so i can see if start working on this or not
cheers

I'm not a big fan of this style but I really like the way your's is set up and willing to change my mind about this style. I hope you release it. great job.

It's basically what I'm using now. I would be willing to use your tiles.
Sent using my Vibrant

I like the preview. I would use the tiles. Thanks for the creativity!

Just came out of the win7 style phase, but i would probably jump straight back in with your tiles! Very nice indeed
Sent from my GT540 using XDA App

Thanks for feedback, will wait abit more and than start making them and the guide...
cheers

I started working on a complete wp7 theme with themed ADW launcher aswell. I will theme the notification bar also but this needs to be done for each phone and firmware separately so i wont be able to share it.

Nice one! Couldn't you do it like the zune launcher and have the tiles scroll down the homescreen. That would be cool but i just realized it wouldn't be possible as an adw theme

Never tryid it, i will take a look when i get home and perhaps swich to it Can you resize widgets in it? Or set rows? If this is not possible than the launcher can not work

doesnt this work with launcher pro? looks quite good, better than the common windows mobile style

hm i dont know, i couldn't find a way to fit 2 2x2 icons + an aditional icon. I know it has a 5 row option but it doesn't work. In adw i got this with a 6 row setup, but i played for like 1 min not more. The image is made in photoshop so it's not an actual layout... It can be done tho

Your layout is possible. below is a shot of my homescreen.
Im using launcher pro, desktop visualizer, and tiles that are 250px by 250px,
columns and rows are both set to 10.
Make some tiles and I will try them out. I would suggest either losing the semi-transparent bar at the bottom of the tiles and increasing the text OR increasing the transparent bar in height by almost double and increasing the text. Only reason I say this is because all of the other wp7 theme tiles with actual photos as tiles have the exact same transparent bar at the same height. Basically looks like all the other tiles just squared.

^ You should upload those ;]

Hm, i took the "design" from the original icons, all was rushed, maybe ill create other types, however atm i am modifiying ADW launcher and have in mind a slyghtly different setup than yours. Smaller tiles with one free row on the right and the menu button centered below.

very nice idea ^~^ But all of those should be the same style like windows phone 7

Atm i am working on some project for ASC. Will see when i finnish that and than come back for icons. The squared ones are my next project

Really loving this idea. great work! If you are making a theme for ADW Launcher, that would be great plus you should add the icons into that and it would be awesome!

My psds won't teach you much I'm afraid.
Theres not much to making a glassy / glossy effect, you just draw over the item you want it done to with a circular shape (easiest to work with). Apply brightness, white to transparent gradient. Just think about where the light is, keep having a go on photoshop

Gracias, por el aporte
Thanks for the input

Yeah I got the one rar with the psds just noticed now actually as I am sitting down to work on them. I think thats great you would do that. Changing those colors is as easy as just messing with the hue/saturation. I already have a few of them done. If anyone else wants custom colors I would be willing to do help out.

So here is one I found missing. An icon for email. I used the files PSD and found an envelope online hope you all enjoy it. This is using the Thick Glass PSD.

Nice idea and concept. I just love adw customization and larger widget availability too much.
Great work though.

Not compatible with ICS.

Really liking this.
Is there any way of hiding the status bar though?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using Tapatalk

Well, since I can change the number of screens, the only thing I think that would make this a perfect launcher for me is the ability to resize widgets and use custom dock icons.

i love this! im using the cloud theme

Very impressive!
I think I found a bug:
- go to Group Management
- long-tap last group (Times)
- select "move down"
- phone not responding anymore, have to reboot.
I'd prefer reordering here would be drag and drop, if possible.
Also, HiLocker keeps the phone awake, wasting battery.

I really love the hi lock screen, BUT:
It has massive battery drain, my phone can't get to sleep and when I look at the battery consumption, the lockscreen takes up like 20%. So I had no choice but to use another lockscreen.

[2.1+] Widget Maker - create widgets out of other widgets

MOD EDIT: links removed
Widget Maker
Widget Maker is a unique application which allows users to create panels - superwidgets as we like to call them - comprised of other widgets installed
on your device. You can fine tune the position of many elements and their alignment to fit more stuff on your screens in a neater arrangement.
If you use our awesome Meta Widget, this app will also help you correctly create panels with lots of complex widget elements like tables or squeeze a
larger number of comic strips into the confines of your home screen.
Please note that some widgets are not fully supported, including a number of stock Google ones.
The DEMO application will function for 7 days, after which time you will be prompted to purchase the KEY if you want to continue viewing your panels.
INSTRUCTIONS - to get started, simply open the app, create a new panel and add new widgets into it by pressing the + sign in the lower left corner.
Once a widget has been added you can move it around the grid much as you would on your home screen.
NOTE - once you have saved a panel, it can be added as a widget through the widget picker. On some Android versions, you may have to manually
stretch the widget once it has been added.

Ill have a look later... but it sounds superlative.

Here is a quick panel made for weather, i just made it fast, anyway it could be more beautiful and useful, but i didn't had any ideas. Anyway i just want to say a few things:
1.What it's that little red exclamation present near widgets?
2.Sometimes selecting simple text or images, they show up fine in meta widget, but fail to appear in widget maker(panel).
3.Panel counter(in name) doesn't decrease if you remove panel.
I would make a video tutorial too, bit later. Nice work ftg!

I will look into it first thing!

The idea is interesting, I was thinking of making this long time ago, but I was waiting to see an implementation of it. Which yours is very poor. It has terrible results when switching portrait-landscape, does not coop well with decreased DPI. It's just not pro and well thought out. It's just so poor.

I see... it seems you have written the same thing about Meta as well. Guess you'll just have to make your own like you planned. Or give some contructibe feedback instead of trolling like a tool knowitall.

0.9.2.1
Fixed panel naming when creating new widgets
Fixed alignment issues of widgets with no padding
Fixed cell size not sticking under some conditions

Anything to report?

Trying to make a widget of Penny Arcades comics (latest as the widget) but it shows up as blank unless I long press on it and move it around and it shows it there. Kind of strange.

Hi. Im not sure what it could be. Please post a link to the strip you want. I use go comics which work perfectly...
