Hi all, is there a way to add and remove tabs to the TF3D? I would like to add Calendar and Task tabs and remove the Sprint TV tab and music since I dont use those. My Phone is CDMA
Thanks
Search for Sprint Calender Tab in the Diamond forums. Also, to move your tabs around, use TF3D Config also found in the Diamond forums(just delete "tweaks" from the file)
I'm gearing up to get my first Andoid phone hopefully next month, and was wondering if there's a port or an app already out there that's similiar in look and functionality as S2U2?
thx.
There's Lockbot out there ;-)
It has iPhone lock style, Hero lock style, Donut lock style and even flair lock style!
Good new: it's free except uf you want to download skins (which doesn't even work on my magic) or want the flair theme (which is the ugliest one)
and even free version let you customise your own themes
cheers
Maybe "Lock 2.0" many skins available for this app!

Thanks!
Lock 2.0 sure looks just like it.
Yes,you can get a free demo or buy full version!
Just bringing this back up since I just got a new Evo and am coming from a Touch Pro which had S2U2. I have tried some of the options on Android, but have not found anything even close to S2U2.
Does anyone have any other thoughts on how to get my calendar entries, notifications, texts, etc to show up on my lock screen (it also needs to look as good as S2U2 did 2 years ago).
Thanks.
Check out WidgetLocker.
I think it's by far the best lock screen replacement, and is fully supported by the developers at the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732986
You should just youtube search "widgetlocker" and you'll see many video reviews of it in action. Note: hardly any of the videos go over the fact that it can change from stock Android slide to HTC slide even to iPhone slide to unlock.
And to rs1990, yes it can add whatever widget you can think of including ones relevant to everything you mentioned.
Funny that you just mentioned WidgetLocker. I am actually looking at that right now. It seems ok at this point, but not as polished as S2U2 is.
I actually think that the problem that I have right now is that the calendar widget kind of stinks. I am looking for a widget that just shows any upcoming events and nothing if there are none upcoming. The default one shows that obnoxious white box that says "No upcoming calendar events," which is ridiculous.
OK, I just found Pure Calendar and it looks somewhat promising. It will allow me to put a nice looking widget in WidgetLocker to show my entries. So, I am going to look into that a bit and see if it suits my needs.

WidgetLocker + Android Agenda Widget + Music Mod Widget + Beautiful Widgets = NO reason to ever unlock
You could try CalWidget

You might want to try CalWidget http://www.androlib.com/android.application.net-eggenstein-android-calwidget-qxjt.aspx - sorry I don't have the Marketplace url.
It's not bad. Can be a bit slow to load up and refresh but it's surprisingly good for a free productivity app. And it works well with WidgetLocker
Is there a way to get something beautiful and usefull like S2u2 for android? i think Lock 2.0 is a real flop, widgetlocker is ok but s2u2 is way better... i would say it's the best lockscreen i've ever seen.
There is nothing even close to S2U2 on android. I only miss S2U2 app from WinMo world. There was so many options/customizations..
I agree with both of the last 2 posts...S2U2 is unmatched on Android. I have "settled" on using WidgetLocker and Pure Calendar. It's ok, but not as good as S2U2.
I agree 100 percent with both of you. WinMo was ok... android is great... but damn... i miss s2u2 like hell.
s2u2 is the swiss pocketknife or Macgyver of lockscreens...
Yeap,
I also miss S2U2 from WinMo. I just bought a new android phone (ZTE Link) and I do miss S2U2. May A_C could port S2U2 for android? Does somenone knows him?
The application I think is closest to S2U2 is GOTO (although its paid :-()
Best,

WidgetLocker, as already mentioned in this thread, is a very capable, attractive, and flexible lockscreen replacement. There are also others on the market.
I for one won't miss the random "won't unlock" weirdness with S2U2, although infrequent, sometimes I had to yank the battery to get out of it as the screen would be frozen after. SOMETIMES I could long-power press and get the reboot dialog and I could get to a task manager and kill it but usually it was stuck.
Is there any possibility that the creator of WinMo S2U2 try to code that app for Android? Or make some coop with somebody who can do that for/with him?
Asked somebody something like this to creator of S2U2??
Thanks so much.

I can just agree to the above, the only thing i miss on Android is S2U2 and G-Alarm. I tried widget locker and i had to reinstall my whole system. When it was active i pulled the right thingy on the locked screen and then it was all black and locket. But i liked it the little i did see when i was exploring it. Now i don't dare to install it again..
EDIT:
Yesterday i tried LockBot but it could not get it to work at all, when i read what it could do it was ONE of the most imprtant thing i miss from S2U2, it was locking the hardware buttons. But nah... no go here either.
I never used S2U2, but what are the features all of you miss so much from it? In the videos I see on youtube, I don't really see anything that makes it standout from any other lockscreen, like WidgetLocker...
The key with widgetlocker is getting the right widgets installed to work with it, but because of that it is pretty much infinitely flexible.
Hey XDA,
I have a question about our Sense UI, it really looks GREAT, but is there a way to make it look like the Touchflo on the HTC HD2?
With the slidingbar down there, and when you slide it you get certain tabs with specific information, like weather, news, apps, etc.
2nd question, what is the live wallpaper called from the nexus one with the moving grass? the one, you see on the bottom of your screen grass, and when you tilt your phone, the grass moves, I love it, but I can't seem to find it
3rd question(last one), how to enable live wallpapers in SenseHero 2.1 Build 5.0?
Thx for reading, I hope you guys can help me!
First Answer: have a look at XDA's Android Themes Thread, at forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=527
Second Answer: I've seen that wallpaper at the Marked, i belive it's called moving grass or something
Third Answer: You need to innstall the livewallpaperpicker.apk
multiupload.com/05Q6DK6DO7
Can't post links yet, sry
Ah, you need both the LiveWallPaperPicker.apk AND the LiveWallpaper.apk to get live wallpapers to work.
Google for them, i don't have time to do it now.
Hi there
Some days ago I have sadly changed my HTC One M9 Plus after 3 and half years of service, the last of a 10 years experience with HTC from the HD2...what a sad situation about the brand.
Anyway I have bought a Samsung S9 Plus which seems not bad at all but I have some questions about it:
1) I have seen that is it possible to change the resoution of the screen, currently I'm on 2220*1080 but I could go for 2960*1440, anyway some widget already have small text, I have tried the upper resolution and a lot of things (icons etc) doesn't seems define enough to support it. What do you suggest?
2) I miss some HTC hystorc widget like the weather flip-clock and the contact widget for making quick call, do you know if there is a chance to install them on the samsung?
3) Is that possible to change the disposition of the system lower key (home, back and multitasking) ?
4) Is that possible to wake up the phone from the always on with a double tap?
5) Is that possible to have a wallpaper for the home and a different wallpaper for the all apps menu?
Welcome over from HTC. I too was a fan of their products until the last 4 years.
1. Yes, Settings -> Display -> Screen Resolution -> Select WQHD+ although will use more battery.
2. Download Sense Flip or Flipv2 from marketplace.
3. Yes, Settings -> Display -> Navigation Bar on the bottom -> Select your preferred order.
4. Not entirely sure if it's possible.
5. Not entirely sure. I prefer using a different launcher like Nova Launcher and use it to mimic Google as much as possible.
Hi there!
Thanks you very much for your answears!
I have tried the 2 widget that emulates the HTC flip clock but I don't I guess it's not the same thing as the original, also the have a low resolution for this phone.
I have also searched a contact widget to add photo of favorites contacts for quick calls, I have found some but they all are too much small for the resolution of the S9+

Use edge panel for favorite contacts with their photos, otherwise you have stock contacts widget which works just fine
Ok edge panel is nice otherwise the contact widget add too much small photo of your contact and also also you need to manually add one by one, you cannot have a table
I have a favorite Widget I have used in every phone since my original Android, the legendary HTC Evo.
It is the last call Widget by Mark Brady, it is sooo useful and even though it's an old school Widget, no longer supported, I have been able to successfully use it on every phone with no issue, the latest being my Google Pixel 3.
I just got a new Pixel 4, and when installing the widget, it is no longer 2x1, it is enlarged to 3x2, which is way to big for what it does. Previously I was able to resize it. Does anybody know what I can do to get it to be 2x1?
Really appreciate any help or advice to point me in the right direction.
hello I have moved your post to q/a as question and answer posts belong there.
