Commonly Used Widgets

NOTE: I've noticed that people have began to repost this thread on other forums. While this normally does not bother me, this was not a sole work and many have contributed to this. So if you have reposted this, please give credit.
One of the greatest strength of Android is user customization. This is what makes our favorite OS unique. No two homescreen are alike. Widgets, wallpapers, and icons, almost everything you see can be replaced, themed and modified. However, the number of themes and widget are many that it becomes daunting and a little bit intimidating. So without further ado, this thread will help you maximize your ability to theme and create your very own take on the Android experience. Enjoy!
Ever wonder how to make your Android home screen look like this?

This thread is dedicated to show you how widgets can help create a look to your homescreen. Keep in mind that some might not be free and some have been modded (transparency, color changes etc.) to look different from the original.
ICONS
There are many icons lying around the internet. These are my favorite as they give the phone a minimalist look like so:
They are provided by Ultralinx and can found here http://ultralinx.blogspot.com/
Launcher
There are a number of launcher available but the two most popular are ADW launcher and launcher pro.
The launchers can change the features and outlook of your homsecreen like so:

thanks for this, i often search for new widgets but it would take years to find exactly what im looking for in the screenshot thread. i can see this helping many new and old users alike. especially ones like me who dont really participate in the forums and just kinda skim through every so often
one suggestion i have is that you categorize the widgets that you/others post in the first post.
example:
clocks
-digital clock by maize
-weather widgets(flip clock)
-LED clock
-tajim
weather
-weather widgets
-weatherbug
-accuweather
-the weatherchannel
etc..

Beautiful widgets seems to be a commonly asked after one, as does genie widget, and music player widgets.

thank you too!, i couldnt figure out what the name of genie widgets was, ive been trying to figure it out for some time! i just never want to ask cause i feel like im being bothersome

@fliparsenal
Thank you for the credit dude and you did the right thing for giving a link to my blog instead of just the thread.
Do you think you could post this screenshot up and say what everything is, they're my modded apps and EVERYONE keeps asking about them...
Just give a link to my blog.
Cheers buddy.

There are some widgets here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=753151

If I could make a suggestion, it might be a bit easier to do a screen capture of the widget itself using snagit or something similar and then providing a QR to the market link and a link to the mod if applicable.

No need to say sorry, everyone has a life outside of android...I think
BTW the first screenshot, I think you might want to remove it. It's a WidgetLocker Mod. I won't be able to share it because it's not a free app.

commonly used app though

how do you get the fonts in the first few pics? from what i've seen, the fonts don't look like that with the stock program.

You might want to switch out the gtasks code. It doesn't take you to the app, it takes you to a key that unlocks the app, but not the app itself

I feel absolutely disgusted towards you right now. The fact that I had to accidentally view that filth on that 4wall link because I trusted this forum enough, and maybe you as a poster enough that I didn't think to skim over a wallpaper link to expect a "little warning" next to it telling me I may be horrified at what I may see on the other side of it.
If I am the only person on here who feels I should spit in your face for the level of respect you have for some one else on here, than I will. Simply just because you may be okay with viewing that, doesn't mean any one else is. And just because there's a little warning in parentheses right next to it doesn't make it okay either! There are people on here underage. There are also people on here who aren't underage and just don't want to tarnish their mind with that insignificant crap thats in there.
Makes me sick. I never have seen any one bring that kind of garbage onto this forum before this. I never will look here the same. Thanks.
Have a good day.

I would advise you to next that next time you follow a direction that you should learn how to READ, the warning was clearly posted and it is up to individual discretion if they deem themselves mature or not. There's a wallpaper thread here with scantly dressed women why don't you go spit in their face too? On the second thought, keep you nasty slime to yourself, rather not spread your idiocy to other members.
traceit the fonts came from the themes. However there are a couple of fonts lying around the forum. Do a search.
E_man, I'll take a look at it thanks.

I can't tell if you're serious or not. If you are just trollin' then haha (skip the rest)
If you're actually serious, man, how stupid are you? The link that he posted had tons of good materials for wallpapers. He even notated that it was NSFW due to "PORN", I don't know how more clear you can get than that. You go out of your way to click a link that says it contains pornography and have the nerve to be "offended" at the images of naked chicks? So what if there are underage people on here, if they click a link that says porn, i'm sure they know what they are getting into... if not, then welcome to the internets.
be a little more smart when you click on links next time. Just because you can't read, doesn't mean you can take our your sexual frustrations on someone who is contributing to this thread.

I suggest remove the wallpaper link also, your (OP) link is direct to porn wallpaper and it is not a original home link but rather a search you did and contains not only nudity but sex scenes image.
I try search, it contains too many pornography, even just a simple word "blue" "red". I am finding blue or red wallpaper but it link to non related wallpaper.
I believe this is a bit over also (even with noted "may contain pornography" and it is not may, it is contain a lot), XDA is not a porn site.
Some more it is not related to your thread title "Commonly Used Widgets".

To be rather honest, I don't care what you guys think. I knew I would hear you guys say that because I opened my mouth. I am not idiotic, I just stand up for what I believe is right. Even if it means getting called out by some random internet strangers. You may think that I sound like an idiot, but I find it disgusting that we find pornography acceptable as a society. So you can find it as my fault for not seeing your "warning." Thats fine. I never said it wasn't my fault for accidentally clicking. But I did say that just because you put a warning doesn't mean it's okay. So whether you wanna still blame me for this or not, is honestly the least of my cares.

With all do respect sir,
When you buy a pack of cigarettes there is a warning label "smoking kills"
When it does happen that a person dies because to much smoking. You don't blame the company but the person itself.
When there is a sign warning don't put hand in the machine, you don't put it right.
When you buy a game and its rated 18+ its giving out as a advise
So when the OP writes
My Persona favorite 4wall (NSFW may contain pornography)
He puts op a warning and you are the person that opened the link. Maybe out of curiosity or something.
I do believe that people should stand for what they believe in, but if you think about it what you did. In my opinion its not his fault but yours. Some people enjoy pornography while others find it disgusting, why do you think its a multimillion dollar business.
Also i also agree with you that XDA is not a pron site.
But when i opened this topic or any other topic i did not see any porn at all. I did see the link he posted and is did not open it. If i would open it it would be on another website not XDA.
I mean this in all respect to you sir

PixelReason: Tell me what to draw and it shall be done!

Hey Guys!
I've been on XDA for about 6 years now and you guys have always helped me out alot with ideas on how to tweak my ever changing smartphones (I think 6 in 4 years?). I've always wanted to contribute but couldn't figure out how until now.
I've been a professional artist/illustrator for over 15 years. Working on projects ranging from kids cartoons to movie projects (Check out Disc2 of the Finding Nemo DVD. Special feature: Mr Ray's Encylcopedia? I created the thing Photoshop. Then the 3d guys animated it in Lightwave!). And for the next 2 or 3 months I should have some free time. Which gave me an idea:
Free custom wallpaper for cellphones, desktops, laptops. Free illustrations you guys can use anywhere (except commercial use).
You guys can tell me what you guys would like me to illustrate. Anything. Seriously. Girls, comic book characters, animals, architecture, you can even send me pictures of your loved ones if you want (but i prefer stuff that would appeal to as many people as possible) and I will pick several at a time and draw them whenever I can. I specialize in comic book characters and girls by the way.
Now here's where I think it's cool. After I draw it, I'll upload it to my blog and this site and you guys can download it and use it however you want for free (as long as it's not for commercial use). I'll even resize and crop the final art for you if you guys give me the dimensions you would like the art to fit into (ex/ phone vs desktop sizes). And another bonus: If you reeeeally likes the artwork, you guys can buy the original. I think that I'll only ask a minimum of a $20 donation (should cover supplies and lunch), but basically it will be for whatever piece you want. If you're very happy and would like to donate more, then please feel free and it will be very appreciated (trying to make this a good Christmas for my family). It will be a "set your own price" kind of thing.
This is going to be an ever evolving experiment. So we'll see if we need to change the concept as we go. But my core goals are to contribute something (free) to you guys and give an opportunity to sell some cool artwork too. So everyone wins. So please tell me what you'd like to see me draw in this forum or on my blog and let's try this out!
Thanks guys!
Here's some stuff to give you an idea about my style(s):
pixelreason.com
=============================
:: Suggested guidelines for posting your requests ::
When posting your requests please include the following information:
1.) Your request. Feel more than free to also include additional info (why you would like this particular piece, what mood you'd like it to be done in, whatever you'd like to add)
2.) Type of device the artwork will be used on.
If Laptop or Desktop, please include screen size (15.6", 17", etc)).
If Cellphone, please include model name (example: HTC Evo, Samsung Captivate, etc). Same for tablets (example: Samsung Galaxy Tab, iPad, etc).
This should help people identify if the wallpaper is good for their phone/tablet more quickly (since most people wouldn't be able to identify the proper wallpaper by just the dimensions)
3.) Size of the wallpaper you're going to need it to be. Width X Height.
(example: 1280x800, 600x800, etc)

Do you do graffiti? Like the lettering in general?
If so could you do one with like an android figure and.under that the word android on there in graffiti letters. Any style.

I played with graffiti style a really long time ago, but I'm sure I could totally do that. give me a couple days. Are you hoping to use it on your phone wallpaper or desktop/laptop?

Phone wallpaper. & thank you!

I'm always looking for interesting dark wallpapers for my android... I like odd subject matter..
. Like impossible situations or colors, serene dusk or daybreak views with something interesting ...like leaf too bright or tree with snow while ground has none or plant emerging from rock, dark metallic fractals, etc. Just like the abnormal, but like the dark colors for phone... Any colors for desktop

Hey Guys,
I'm eating at Macaroni Grill Restaurant right now and they have a crayon and the paper table cloth. Which can only mean one thing: Instant request time!
Please comment on my blog under the latest post what you'd like to see me do a quick sketch of and I'll do it right now! Then I'll take a semi decent picture of it (dark lighting in here) and upload it for everyone's enjoyment. I'll leave the sketch for them to keep here, but I think it's a fun idea to try out. So please comment this request on my blog and I'll see you guys in about an hour

Can you make me a logo? Id like to have the same as my avatar but with a different color scheme.I couldn't do that lately...See if you have time and can help me out with that!

Galaara,
let me see what I can think of. This one will probably take some more time since it's more broad.
Shr,
What color(s) would you like to use? I can do it, no problem!
And looks like the restaurant experiment didn't work out. That's what I get for posting a call to action in the middle of the night! Haha

P.S.: I WANT IT UNIQUE, SO IT WOULD BE FOR MYN PERSONAL USE. DON'T MAKE IT PUBLIC.

Alex530,
Graffiti is just about done. 2 things: What's your phone's wallpaper size? and can you post the android graffiti request under one of the posts on my blog? That way, the readers aren't confused where the request came from.

Hey, just had a look at your website and WOW the green lantern wallpaper is amazing..you got skills.
I'd like to make a request, if it's not too much trouble:
I'd like a Thai Boxing wallpaper for my computer (1280x800), preferably a dark background (but not too plain) with 2 silhouettes, one head-kicking the other, kind of like this http://popularmyanmarnews.com/epaper/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/muay_thai.gif but with more color, making the wallpaper stand out.
If you don't really know what a head kick looks like in action, i'd recommend you watch from 2:30 to around 2:50 here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6zI4Y_P7S0 (watch it all to appreciate how asweme thai boxing is ).
Also, maybe if you're not sure about the style of the wallpaper you could search for muay thai wallpaper in google images. Add your own touch/ideas to it
Sorry if it's too specific, lol.

@Alex and everyone
New art is up! Android Graffiti
If you guys want other sizes for the phone wallpaper, let me know on the blog and I'll be happy to do it for you guys.
@shr
I'm going to have to think about how to approach your request, because it's something you specifically want and since it's your logo, nobody else can use it. The idea behind the PixelReason blog is for me to make cool stuff that can be used by anybody. For specific logo requests and things like that, if I were to take up the work, I'd probably treat it like commercial work and have to charge for it. But I'll think about it some more and let you know.
@me_
I like the idea. I have something that just clicked inside my mind as I was re-reading your post and I think you'll like it. This one will take a little bit of time because I'll be busy for a few days but also because I need to do some research on muay thai to get this right. Oh yeah, and I have one request in front of yours, but I'll probably work on both at the same time

and headsup:
I'm going to be giving away the "Green Lantern brings the Android Invasion" piece within the next few days.
The original requester of the piece will have a few (very few) days to get first dibs. If he doesn't respond in time, it will go to whoever posts the request on my "Giveaway" post first (which won't be up for a couple days). The only thing I require is a minimum $20 donation (to cover postage and supplies). And if you want to donate more, it's definitely appreciated.

[THEME][EI22]Special midNIGHT ROM Autism Awareness Theme+LP+ Icons +Boot Animation

I’m sure most of you in here are familiar with the midNIGHT rom. I hope most of you are also familiar with ptfdmedic and his blog on lostandtired.com. If you’re not, I would recommend it.
Johnny and I were talking about a week ago about doing some icon set’s and making skinned Launcher Pros to match. We started working on the icons in the development thread I started about 2 weeks ago here. Now when you get people working together on a project, ideas just seem to start flowing. One of the ideas was to do some sets based on an Autism theme to try and do our small part to help spread Autism awareness. We both did a set using very different ideas, so the end result is sets that don’t look at all alike.
Our thanks go to:
ptfdmedic – midNIGHT rom
Timberwolf – Taking the time to answer questions
darren.wlsn1 – Just because he’s DW.
I would also like to thank Johnny Bravo. I couldn’t ask for someone better to work with on something like this.
ZiggSVO for providing the puzzle lockscreen, and talking me into updating this
Sbrissen & Maddoggin for the lockscreen mod
qbking77 for the new base
All of the midNIGHT rom beta testers: chadit, megabiteg, Science Guy, dnathan13, d/\sh, wudstock54, capitaltpt, flyers2114, jmkasperek1
Check our page at PPCGeeks
Autism Awareness Theme:
Here is what's included:
Themed framework-res.apk
Themed twframework-res.apk
Settings, TSMParts & androidpolicy.jar for the lockscreen mod
There are also 4 sets of Icons that can be used with desktop visualizer.
The instruction for the icon sets are further down in the OP.
Just so everyone knows, this is my first publicly released theme for an android device.
I hope you like my work.

The icons in the set work very well with Desktop Visualizer which you can download from the market. Just unzip the files somewhere on your SD card.
To install Launcher Pro you must uninstall any previous version. These have been resigned so you cannot install over what you have. You can backup your setting then restore then after install. Everything except widgets will be right where you left it.
These icon sets and launcher pro can obviously be installed on other devices besides the Epic.
Here’s our first version.
Here’s the second version.
Give us some feedback and let us know what you think. And please, go give Johnny Bravo some love by clicking the thank button on the next post.
Johnny's wallpapers and boot animation coan be found on post #2 here.

I read ptfdmedic's blog www.lostandtired.com almost every day, and one of the things that I have learned is that many children with Autism never really grow up mentally. A 12 year old child with Autism might have the mental state of a 3 or 4 year old. So when Shane mentioned his idea to me about creating Autism Awareness themed Launcher Pro icons an idea just flashed into my head. What is more reminiscent of a child than crayon drawings? I have two daughters, one is 7 and one is 8, and I asked them to help me with this. After trying to explain Autism to them (which I'm not sure I did a very good job, but I will keep trying) I asked them to help me draw a set of icons for my phone. They both love playing games on my Epic, so both of the jumped up and down and said "YES!" I grabbed a big bucket of crayons, several sheets of paper and opened the laptop and showed them all the icons the Shane had made and asked them to draw them. The three of us spent all afternoon drawing icons and they had a great time. Then I scanned them and used Photoshop to build a frame and put a set of LP icons together. When I loaded them on my phone my kids thought it was the coolest thing in the world that something they had drawn was now on my phone.
I could never come close to understanding the struggles that parents of autistic children go through, but Rob's blog helps me see through his eyes. I urge everyone to that installs these icon sets to please share the story of where you got them. If someone says "cool icons", don't just let it end there. Explain to them why its made up of puzzle pieces, and what it stands for, and then give them Rob's website www.lostandtired.com. If we can explain to just one more person what autism is and how it affect the lives of the families it touches, we will have helped out.
***Update 3/20/11*** Added custom boot animation. Thanks soooo much to optmsprim2 for helping me with the format.

Reserved for updates

Amazing job guys. I'm going to download now. This is a perfect accent to go along with a perfect rom. Thanks for all of the hard work that you all put in to make people like me happy with their phones and also getting some info out to people about a very important cause. Thanks.

Just wanted to stop by and say thanks to you guys for doing this and helping to spread Autism awareness (which I will also do with "Thanks" button). It's nice to see people do something on here like this. A project that actually means something to alot of people, not just a specific phone community/forum. They are a little too colorful for my style of themes I usually run, but regardless I am going to download them anyways, just so I can show all my other real life android nerds at work and such. Very nice concept and they came out great!
P.S I bet you had a blast with your daughters on that project! Not only were you helping others, but I'm sure they enjoyed the time spent with you just as much. Great post overall. I Love hearing things like this.

Johnny and I both thank you for that. I hope anyone in this community that has had any interactions with ptfdmedic or knows of his story is as moved by the guy as we are. Helping him get the word out about autism in this way was the least we could do.

I must say I will probably use some of those icons in my next ROM in tribute,looks good...

I find it absolutely incredible what Rob is capable of handling in his day-to-day life. This is the least we can do to help him out.
Thanks for the kind words and the support.
Tell your friends!

Theme added to the OP.

I fully support Autism awareness and what not, but let's please stop referring to this as (direct quote) an "Autism theme". Sounds like a theme based on Autism.

I'll respond on here even after replying to your pm; I meant no disrespect at all and I appologize if I have offended anyone or caused a ruckus of sorts. Just from a grammatical point of view, referring to the theme as an "Autism theme" is nonsensical and doesn't convey the message that this theme is intended to put across. Once again, my appologies to anyone I may have offended, I know plenty of people with Autism and I fully support spreading awareness by any means necessary. It is most certainly a serious subject and not to be taken lightly. I was simply pointing out the incorrect usage and connotation of the term "Autism theme".
Please disregard my statement if you wish, and I would be more than willing to delete my post if you, OP, feels it is necessary.

Our thoughts when putting these pieces together for every thing on the OP was that most people know what the ribbons, puzzle pieces and hearts stand for. Johnny and I were just trying to do something nice and give back at little for all of the time and energy ptfdmedic gives in all aspects of his life.
I have a couple friends that have childeren diagnosed with Autism. The daily battles they go through are something I don't know if I could deal with.
While doing this I got to make myself more aware by reading the information on the pages I would visit while gathering ideas for the theme.
In no way was it our goal to make light of Autsim in any way, shape, or form.
If anyone takes offence to anything in the thread, I appologize. Feel free to pm me so we can discuss it.
Thanks.

April Best Game of the Month and 3rd BEST RATING IN THE MARKETPLACE !!!!
FOR A SHORT TIME: Get the companion “Alchemic Extras 7” fully functional trial!!!
...brings Live Tile, Online Backup and Riddle Hints to the game ! Get it here:
http://social.zune.net/redirect?type=phoneApp&id=fc23cc5c-e9a0-e011-986b-78e7d1fa76f8
Marketplace Description
Are you a good Alchemist ?
You are tasked with rebuilding the universe, bit by bit, or rather Element by Element. Starting with just 6 Elements (no, not just 4) and combining them using your skills, wits and knowledge, you will unlock 1600 more and 26 Realms.
Do you think you can you discover: Atomic Energy, Zeppelin, Chuck Norris, Atlantis or even ‘Angry Birds’ ?
Similar games include Doodle God, but please note that this is brand new, built from scratch, taking the concept directly from the old 80s ‘Alchemy’ and reinventing it in the process.
IT’S HUGE !
The game includes 1500 discoverable Elements, but grows with updates and your suggestions. In fact if you have an idea for a combination or feel that two elements should react, the game provides a direct link for the suggestion.
UNLOCK REALMS:
As you progress, you will find new Elements which will unlock more Realms
SCORING AND TARGETS:
A scoring system is included (but you can also have fun without it) that gives big rewards for target key Elements or unlocking new Realms. You also get a Target Element of the Day !
ONLINE SCORES:
Once you feel like bragging, you can post your World Discovery % and score on the Leaderboard. Leave a comment and tease your friends !
FRIEND MODE:
Have a friend who wants to play ? Check “Friend Mode” in settings.
HINTS:
Finding some key elements can be a (reasonable) challenge but it wouldn’t be fun otherwise. A multiple hint functionality that doesn’t spoil too much of the research process is available. If you are really stuck please check the companion app !
WORLD STATUS:
Shows Realms. By tapping on an element tile you can see the reactions where it took part.
WIKIPEDIA:
Helpful and interesting, you can access an Element page by tapping on its name.

Check the website for hints and leaderboard !! http://www.alchemicphone7.wordpress.com
Please note that this game is brand new, it was built from scratch, both the interface and it's reactions. I played the old Alchemy game on MS-DOS and later incarnations, but noticed they tend to follow always the same reaction tree and sometimes I find some stuff repetitive.
With this game I tried to reset and rebuild the world, following scientific and historic logic when possible, and also attempting to use as much of the Metro interface as I could.
Following that principle, there is readily available a link to suggest new combinations. At the same time I'd also be glad to receive emails with comments about reactions already in place.
The Alchemic World in your phone is in expansion and you're welcome to contribute to it !

we will reorganize and push about 100 new elements from the suggestions in a short while, after we get some more input about the new realms

Update 1.2
Updated to 1.2 with the brand new scoring system. Mostly you will get rewarded base on how hard it was to reach the element
You can find the scoring system in the game of course and in the blog:
http://alchemicphone7.wordpress.com/
Also since someone was really-really stuck, help tip can be obtained every hour
Have fun !

Thanks to everyone that sent suggestions !
A first -small- batch of them, around 40 new elements, have been pushed to the marketplace certification and you should see it soon.
For anybody that is having problems finding 'Radiation', as reported in the blog, there was a small bug which is solved in this version.
Keep sending suggestions !

Version 1.3 up in the marketplace with a bunch of user suggested elements (thanks) and a squished radioactive bug

Had a few reports of users not being able to update/download the game. Please note it's a widespread issue and it's happening to the entire marketplace.
Enjoy the blog in the meanwhile !
[EDIT] solved now it seems !

thenks ..................

Like it!
I like the idea, I think that you can make use of better graphics though. I feel like a nice touch with a graphics designer friend's help would make the game more enjoyable!
Keep up the good work =)

Thanks ! All my graphic designer friends are either too busy or totally broke and left the activity. Talk about finding the right middle hehe
If anybody is willing to assist and provide around 600 icons (yeah, that's what is in the next update)
I agree interface could be fancier, at the same time I've always thought this game was a blast on MS-DOS basically without graphics...
oh, by the way, thanks to all those that downloaded the game, it's climbing the ranks quickly and making first place in this poll: http://www.bestwp7games.com/top-wp7-games-april-2011-poll.html

Won april best game poll ?
Is it my browser that has problems, or we actually made first spot in the April best game poll ???
http://www.bestwp7games.com/top-wp7-games-april-2011-poll.html

Actually the graphics is not my strong side, but I'm struggling with sounds too. Anybody has an idea for a "Places" Realm sound ?

Update published !
700+ elements
4 new Realms
More hints
Random Target of the Day
smoothness improvements
always free !!!

I have to say, I am loving this game! I convinced my friends to play other Alchemy games for themselves (because they either have an iPhone or an Android Phone) and they love this version so much more. They say it's because of the actual scientific aspect of it. I was at 40% before the update and now moved down to 26% :O
Thanks so much for a great game!

Hahaha glad to hear that. I too played other versions, old ones on the pc and new ones on android, but then wanted to do it in a different way, glad you like it.
Prepare to be moved back a bit more (850 elements) with the upcoming update, which has a surprise too...
The actual scientific/historic aspect is being taken care of, but lately I'm also finding a lot of funny suggestions. I hope the balance is kept, maybe check the website and leave some votes in the polls regarding it ! Thanks

Velvet Themes - Support & Feedback, Communication

Hey everyone! So after a bit of a break I'm back and I've brought along some new themes for everyone to enjoy! Some of you may remember me over the past few years from various LG devices. So what the purpose of this thread is, is to provide support, feedback and allow me to communicate, interact and discuss my themes with all members of xda. I know that a lot of people now are pivoting to telegram but honestly albeit convenient it's just not as good for people to find things. With this format other members can view the thread and see suggestions or issues that have been brought up or add their own. I much prefer it this way and with all of my other threads I've found XDA to be the best way to provide support and gather feedback from members all over the world. There are a few rules that must be abided by. First, the purpose of this thread is exactly what the title states; "Support, feedback & communication". It is not to generate sales/revenue and as such I request that no paid links be posted. I understand some people like to make life easier to those who can't find a link but I forbid this as does XDA rules. XDA rules (11) states that
Don’t use XDA to advertise your product or service. Proprietors of for-pay products or services, may use XDA to get feedback, provide beta access, or a free version of their product for XDA users and to offer support, but not to post with the intention of selling. This includes promoting sites similar / substantially similar to XDA-Developers.com.
So let's keep it that way. Next, I don't mind if you ask me about eta's. I know some people get quite fired up about that but it doesn't bother me. This doesn't mean that when you ask, that one magically shows up. My life has become much busier than it was in the past and I spend considerably more time creating themes than I did when I first was making them for the V20, G6, V30. After those devices it became possible to theme more elements and I also believe my abilities improved. So I really try to focus on attention to details. Next let's have some fun in here. After all this is supposed to be a fun hobby that we all share (customizing our devices). I absolutely love screenshots so if you want to post some of your home screen setup while using my themes, by all means show off your creativity. Lastly be kind and courteous to each other. If you've read this far I thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing your input and feedback. Update info:
In closing some of you may ask about (insert theme name) that you used to use on your old (insert name) device. Some of these themes are anywhere from 2-4 years old and honestly they likely won't be. After about a year or two I normally stop updating a theme. Some themes in all honesty don't require updates. More on that in a bit. But here's the thing. LG has an interesting way of doing things. So for example let's say you used pixel experience on your G7 of V40 and you liked using it. Sure I could technically update it to work on the V60. But by doing so it would cause it to stop working on the G7 or V40. That is simply not fair to do to those who have not changed their devices. I've tried to make it work in the past and it always causes more harm than good so for that reason I generally avoid that. Back to update frequency. As I was saying, not all themes will require frequent updates. A theme sometimes reaches a point where it is pretty much bug free and eventually it runs it course and I don't just update for the sake of updating. An update serves a purpose of either improving of correcting something and sometimes less is more.
Now for my first theme which has an optional add-on system icon pack:
E for Extinction​

So I really debated making this theme for a long time. I had the odd email here and there over the years asking if I could make this and I always politely declined. But I decided finally to do it... Why not right! Anyway I think this turned out pretty well and it has dark and light mode styles, icons and wallpapers. When you want to switch switch to default theme, then choose either light or dark mode and reapply the theme. If not the icons won't take properly. Here's some more screenshots if you'd rather look at them longer than shown in my video. Anyway I hope you like it! I'm honestly not sure how many more LG themes I'm going to make. It seems with LG discontinuing their mobile division that interest in themes has died down quite a bit.

Really like this theme. One thing i would like to know is if you could update the brightness slider for android 11. Other than that excellent theme. Thanks for the LG support

Well this by far is the quietest LG themes thread I've ever had sadly. Anyway folks a couple of weeks ago I made another theme and I never announced it here. Anyway this is it here. Check it out. I hope you like it. I honestly don't know how much longer I'm going to continue making LG themes. I've been doing this for a very long time and interest is really dwindling now and I just don't know if I'm going to keep going for much longer.
