Awesome, I'll test it out!
Works really good actually, I like the app drawer.

Weather & Toggle Widget looks distorted on desktop.

Hello Everyone,
Does the Weather Toggle Widget work properly for anyone on the Dell Streak? I tried this on 1.6 and now again on 2.1 but it always looks messed up. The clock looks great but the weather is always compressed and cut-off on the side. I have tried different skins but always the same result. I really like this application and just want to get it working.
Check the screen capture to see what I mean.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
PS. I did send a support email to the creator as well so I hope to hear from him eventually.
[FIXED using ADW LAUNCHER (Free) in Market Place]
I was informed that ADW Launcher allows many customizations, including widget sizes. I use this as my home scren now and couldn't be happier having total control over my widgets.
Yes mine was cut off and it is cut off on Beautiful widget

What widget r u using?
I use beautiful home screen, and had a time issue when i flashed to 2.1 in that the time wouldn't change.
Sent and emial off to creator and got a reply very quickly saying to exclude it in task killer and it now works.
Only problem i have now is that the minutes section is over lapping on the right, not a big deal but still an issue.
Have to say tho the beautiful home live weather wallpaper is amazing.
Yeah i tried it too and it wouldn't line up correctly so i had to ditch it.

[REQ] Scrolling photo gallery widget

I am looking for the following that I haven't been able to find by searching:
-Widget with different sizes
-Widget will automatically slideshow from selected drawers at a set interval (with random as option)
-You can scroll through the photos by swiping, preferrably seamless (with the help of a launcher that allows scrollable widgets I guess) so you can scroll really quick
-Clicking a picture will bring you its source
Would this be possible (or is there such a widget already)?
I have not found anything like this but would love to have it.
Would like this also... thought i'd 'bump' the short thread.

Great idea.. Whoever decides to jump on board should test with one of the new 7 inch tablets as well.. Having extra screen estate means bigger thumbnails for Widgeez especially anything picture related.
Multi Picture Live Wallpaper does more or less what you want.
You can have an empty screen and cycle the background.
Obviously not a widget, but it comes close to what you want.
(can't yet add the link for you unfortunately)
I know exactly what you might be looking for...
I had a "Sony Xperia Arc LT15a" on gingerbread.. and it had a scrolling gallery widget where the pictures shuffled in folder order when you touch the widget and I cant find it anywhere. If anyone can find anything similar msg me please!
If you haven't already you should definitely check this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1857493
Its good but what I'm really looking for is simply an automatic slideshow version of the stock android photo gallery widget. I like the way it stacks the photos, shows them in high res and responds to flicking through them - I just wish it would animate automatically!
I need slide widget 'xperia style' too. Is it present?
Up!

Simple but damn important and useful, True silence. Basically with one click it makes your android completely silent, instead of android's crappy 'silent' mode which leaves the media volume on, and if you go to adjust that manually it will play to you the current level of media, which will be loud and might turn heads towards you..
Also I use rimshot widget for fun, and pure grid calendar, but it costs so.

For quite mode I use "phone silencer" <- you can set when the silence mode will be switched off
A client with this phone came to me for a problem she had. The thing is that she had the same home screen effect as sense for htc phones and i am shure that she does not have a rooted or modified phone. I tought at first that it was the weather network widget since she had this on her screen but after downloading i see that this is not what made the effect. When you want to select a shortcut or widget on the home screen with this effect you have to tap twice to disengage the effect. Does anyone know of what widget or app im talking about because i really want this one!!!

You could try the experia arc launcher, follow the instruction carefully, it's a great launcher, quick and you can have multiple widgets and fully customizable homescreens!! Not sure about the size of the icons in the drawe3r, they seem to be the same size as the ones you get in most launchers. Give it a try!!

The arc launcher is one fot he best launchers i've used for simplicity, downside is that it has no landscape support which is the only thing that lets it down

OOOh, yeah!! I forgot, I don;t know exactly where it is in the x10mini forum, but somebody modded one of the arc launchers to support landscape!!! You'll have to do some digging, but it's there and the post includes screens. Im not sure it was on the first page though
Hope this helps!!

Ok, I have found it!!!

This great member made it work in landscape too!!! Just scroll down a bit
rowleyfa - You can also drag apps from the sony style app draw right onto the desktop/homescreen!!!

Awesome, thank you.
Also, have you had a problem with your phone not remebering the sort by alphabeticaly?
I set it to the other options and it will use them options until i change it.
But when i do it by "Alphabetical" it automatically changes back after i've launched something.
I havent had that problem yet, alhough the problem I did have was that the launcher would forget everything whenever I restarted the phone!!
I realised I had been installing the app instead of moving it to the correct folder with root explorer and setting the permissions correctly.
just follow the steps they set properly (they are on the first post I think) and you will have no problem.
i personally think the "xperia active" launcher is better than the Arc launcher. u can have 16 shortcuts in the 4 corners of the Homescreen. multiple widgets, and a very nice iteration from the ARC launcher, that is, when u pinch to get the "widgets overview" mode, the widgets are not "stable" but are "floating" in the screen. VERY nice tweak. try the active launcher.
In my experience, the xperia active launcher seems to position widgets a little to the right in landscape mode (makes their right ends go off the screen.)

Xperia Ray default theme and app drawer

Hello all.
I recently bought Xperia Ray. So far I feel good about my purchase, but there is a minor problem, for which I cant find a solution.
I really like the looks and performance of Ray's default theme (its called Timescape if I Googled ir right). The problem is, that Timescape's appdrawer dont have tabs on top of it (I mean the menu with 3 options - All, Recent, Running). is it possible to add this menu to the default theme's appdrawer?
use go launcher instead
I am using GO Launcher at the moment.
Anyway, I kinda prefer the default one, so, if there is any chance of making default appdrawer to show thos tabs, i would really appreaciate any help.
EDIT: The main reason, why I like Timescape, is because of the widgets - music playing widget and Pic&Video preview widget. If I use GO Launcher, I must use additional widgets like Winamp, which, tbh, I dont like.
AFAIK, that would require a lot of developer skills to add those tabs to default launcher
and its not called timescape, its called sony ericsson home
timescape is just an application from SE
I see. Thanks for the answer, will try to tweak GO Launcher so I actually start to like it...
