DOWNLOAD:
Version 1.0:
Changed the default skin to something cleaner that uses text-based tab widget instead of icons. You can still use the old skin by downloading "Classic UberMusic Skin" from the Android Market (link)
Added a live wallpaper that will show album art from your collection and rotate it periodically.
Added a 4x3 widget.
You can now set different skins for the the user interface and app widgets.
Added index headers to the "Folders" tab.
Added an option to trigger a system re-scan of the SD card.
Added an option to force the user interface to be displayed in English regardless of your device's language. (Might not work in all devices)
Changed it so that unplugging the headset will pause the music even if headset controls is disabled.
Fixed a bug where the music wouldn't automatically pause when receiving incoming calls on certain phones.
Fixed a bug in the widget where the previous album art would stick if the current track had no album art.
Fixed a bug with the "Keep screen on" option not working properly.
Beta 3:
Added a new "Bio" tab to Artist screens.
Added an option to keep the screen on while the "Now Playing" screen is visible.
The App Widget is now skinnable. Please note that certain skins might not provide layouts for all widget sizes, so not all sizes might be functional depending on the skin you use. The default skin currently supports 1x1, 2x1, 4x1, 4x2, and 4x4. The 4x3 widget will come in next update.
Added overscrolling, a squeeze effect when overscrolling, and a nicer scrolling algorithm to all lists.
Added menu option from Artist and Album screens to go back to the main library screen.
Re-fixed a force close issue when opening folders with apostrophes in the path (turns out previous version didn't really fix it).
Beta 2:
Added all the translations submitted to the UberMusic translation project. If any of the translations in your language seems wrong, feel free to head over to the project page and submit better translations (if someone already submitted a better translation, you can help by upranking the best translation).
Added gestures for switching songs in the "Now Playing" screen. Swipe from right to left to go to the next track, and from left to right to go to the previous track.
Added an option in the settings to choose and apply a skin. Skins can be installed through the Android market once skin developers start publishing them there. If you would like to make skins for UberMusic, please read the UberMusic Skin Creation Manual
Fixed the Last.fm scrobbling through the official app that got broken in Beta 1
Fixed a force close issue when opening folders with apostrophes in the path.
Beta 1:
Note: The user interface is now driven by the new skinning engine. I'll be releasing all the details on how to make skins as soon as I'm finished writing them (will take some time). I think this app has the most powerful skinning engine on the market right now.
The official/default skin drops the WP7 look, but the skinning engine is flexible enough that it can be made to look exactly like the previous Alpha versions through skins. If you want the WP7 look back, you'll have to wait until someone releases a skin for it (which I'm sure won't take long once the details on how to make skins are released). The Beta versions have a different package name than the Alphas, so they can coexist in your device (you can install the Beta without overwriting the Alpha).
Also, I've started a Crowdin.net (collaborative transaltion) project for UberMusic. So if you'd like to see UberMusic translated in your language, feel free to head over to the project page and submit translations/corrections or vote for the best translations.
Changed the disable lockscreen option so that it only disables the lockscreen when something is playing. It should also work even if you leave the Now Playing screen, but it's not failproof.
Changed the layout of the Now Playing screen on LDPI devices so that scrolling isn't necessary.
Improved the track seeking functionality of the progress indicator. You can now click anywhere on the indicator to seek to that position.
Alpha 7 changelog:
Fixed the force-close when opening the Recently Added playlist.
Fixed the trash can appearing on the Album screen.
Alpha 6 changelog:
Playlists can now be edited through the app. Open a playlist and press Menu > Edit. Use the handles (up/down arrows) to drag/move songs. Drag them to the trash can to remove them from the playlist.
The widget's Play button should now work even if the queue is empty.
Added a menu item on the Now Playing screen to go to Settings.
Added an option to disable the lockscreen while on the Now Playing screen.
You can now choose to scrobble through the official Last.fm app, through ScrobbleDroid / SLS, or disable it entirely.
Fixed some problems in the shuffling code that were causing force closes.
Alpha 5 changelog:
Fixed startup force close that happened on some HTC phones.
Made the entire widget clickable, so that clicking anywhere (outside the play/pause/next buttons) will open the app.
Added the ability to delete playlists by long-pressing on a playlist and choosing "Delete".
Added an option to set the default tab to show when the application is started.
New option to use a custom status bar instead of the system status bar. Touch it to reveal more info (battery charge, Wifi status, signal strength, data connection). Swipe it down to open the notifications panel. Please note that due to limitations in the Android system, it's not possible to show notifications in the custom status bar or customize the notifications panel.
Alpha 4 changelog:
Fixed a bug that caused the app to fail to restore the shuffle setting when restarted.
Added a 4x1 Widget with album art, song info, and playback controls
You can now long-press any song/artist/album/playlist/genre to add it to a playlist. You can also create a new playlist by choosing "New" instead of an existing playlist.
Added a new "Folders" tab that lists any folders that contain music from your library. Clicking on a folder name will open a list of the songs in that folder.
Added a new option in the Settings screen to choose which tabs to show in the main "Music" screen.
Added a new option to show/hide album art in the "Now Playing" screen..
Alpha 3 changelog:
Fixed some out-of-memory FCs related to album artwork and artist backgrounds.
Fixed a FC when "shuffle all" was pressed before having played any songs.
Fixed the previous song's album art showing in Now Playing when no artwork is found for the current song.
Fixed a visual glitch for album art in the Now Playing screen on Honeycomb.
Enabled vertical scrolling in Now Playing (portrait mode) for low resolution devices devices like HTC Wildfire.
Modified status bar notification layout to include album art of the currently playing song.
Added menu item to go back to Library from the Now Playing screen (Menu > Library)
Added menu item to open the Now Playing screen from any other screen (Menu > Now Playing)
In the Now Playing screen, clicking on the artist name will take you to that artist's screen. Same with album name.
Disabled artist background downloading when roaming, and data roaming is disabled on your phone.
You can now long-press any song/artist/album/playlist/genre to add it to the current play queue.
Added compatibility for scrobbling with the Last.fm app
Added a Settings screen (in the main "Music" screen press Menu > Settings)
Added support for controlling playback with your headset. You can disable this in the settings.
Added option to download artist backgrounds only when connected to Wi-Fi to avoid data charges.
Added option to change the UI accents color (default is blue).
Added a provisional icon to the app.
I'm using this app and I really love it

hmmm... lets check it out...

So what do you think about this application ???

I havent used it yet, but it looks good... a bit like Windows Phone 7.
But I really like PowerAMP
It could a chance to leave PowerAMP... but the player is already in alpha status, so there might be some bugs.
I'll install the app this our and i'll show my notifications.
Update:
Looks good (in real), but dont know how to get the second picture (got a little cover - not a fullscreen).
I miss a equalizer.
Good navigation - easyto understand, better than PowerAMP.
I think I let it stay on the phone as a second player.

Yeah, it's still under development of LauncherPro Team.
It looks like WM7 and I really like this style. I think that in beta or RC we will have EQ too. ;-)

Any chance of baking in Dlna or cloud support?

I'm not a developer of this app.
I just found this on twitter of LauncherPro Team. ;-)

Does anybody know how to make the cover on fullscreen, as the screenshot?

Application needs network access. ;-)

Thank you for your hard work.I'm a Andriod Fan from China,and my English is not good.But I very like your APP.Hope more good APP.

Update !!!
The newest version Alpha 5 added into first post.

I'll check this out...

App is great, a bit minimalistic but with nice animations and UI, if it had an equalizer would be my primary music player. Awesom work to the devs

Best music app ever!
I was a itunes regular till I found Microsoft's Zune player. It is simply beautiful and I haven't cheated on her ever since. I wouldn't even have dreamt I'd be able to use that beauty on my phone. Thank you Mr. Federico. This is the best music app ever.
I'd love to see OTA sync with Zune player. After using the stock app for exactly a year, I finally make the shift to a new one, this one.

UPDATE !!!
New version Alpha 7 and the developer changed the name from FedeMusic to UberMusic. :-D

I like this. I saw it dowloads artists photos, is there a way to make it load custom artists images located o on the disc folder? Sometimesit loads very low quality pics and i would like to put higher quality artist photos.

Im loving this app. Fede has done very well since the first release.
Unfortunately the latest Alpha (7) has changed a load of my artists to 'Unknown Artist' which is a little frustrating. Version 6 didnt do that. Hopefully it'll be fixed next release.
Unless anyone here would have an idea around it?

Cool!! Ive seen dis player before!!! here it is luks almost da same!!! http://approb.com/android/apps-for-android/317-wp7-zplayer-for-android.html

UberMusic = WM7 Player ;-)

Hi. Have you got eq for this music player?

[SEP 17] FEWidgets Ultimate 1.0b12 - (100% native code No Flash required)

FEWidgets Ultimate is a Today Plugin for Windows Mobile 6.1/6.5 Professional devices (WM 5 and 6.0 are not supported).
IMPORTANT:
- If you've modified the scripting side of any widget on a version lower than 1.0b10, either disable the Fast Orientation Change option, or modify the new scripts, because now widget initialization must be performed on the onWidgetLoad event for the cache to work properly.
- From 1.0b10 sweeping horizontally is cached instead of vertically. Meaning if you had setup a window you'll now have to sweep horizontally to get it, instead of vertically.
- If your device doesn't have too much RAM or the app behaves strange try disabling the "Fast Orientation Change option and soft resetting the device.
This version of the application is 100% native code (C++) using the Qt Framework for Windows CE and does not require Flash at all (none of them).. It also should run faster than it's flash counterpart (the Lite or vanilla old versions).

Works Great with HTC X7500
Thanks
works great with HTC X7500/Athena
How can I change the background image?
Request: Hope in the future version you can make this app DPI-aware so that it can support 128dpi and 96dpi resolutions (In the Athena it works at 192dpi only,wanted to use it @ 128dpi 'cause the athena's screen is so big, icons in 192dpi are big [email protected][email protected])
My bad...it works @ 128 and 96 dpi...but
Well it works at those resolutions...but they stayed big (original size)
Bug: It doesn't show/start when themes are changed
@ 128DPI
wow thank you. it only eats up 3.7mb.

It's meant to be used on PDA phones.. don't really know if yours has a phone but it looks more like a vanilla Pocket PC.. phones tend to have a smaller screen and the images look smaller. I really don't take into account the DPI because I use the same images no matter what.
When you change the themes it probably tries to restart the plugin.. I've had some problems with that, so perhaps you should try to disable the plugin, change the theme and then enable the plugin again.

Actually it eats some more MB but on dlls (Qt dlls). Since WM 6.1 and 6.5 use a different address space (64MB for large dlls) I guess they are not showing on the Process Manager... or it could be the dlls are not fully loaded and it really eats only that size hehe. You could probably check the real size watching how much memory you've got left with and without FEWidgets.
Cheers,
Nico.
Do you guyz see any battery issues with these widgets?
I hope they take less resources than manila & SPB shell.
on my 6.5, it only eats 3-4MB, im sure of it
any option to remove the vibrate on touch?

There's an option on the Application Configuration item on the configuration window... on the User Manual every configuration option is explained.
found a small bug. if the widget bar is set on TOP of the screen, you cannot add a contact widget or shortcut widget on the screen.
EDIT:
also, after adding a contact widget, if i tap on it to add the contact i want, my phone hangs. (ETEN DX900)

Thanks, I'll fix it tomorrow in the afternoon.
EDIT: I've uploaded the full CABs hopefully fixing that bug. Also on this post is attached a zip with the Main Provider, you can replace the one on FEWidgetsUltimate\providers with this one. Keep in mind you have to unload the plugin to do so.
EDIT: sorry for the stupidity, the widgets were locked hahahahaha
replaced the dll, but still no go when bar is on top
guyz I need some update about battery before really trying this nice work, last time I tried fewidgets its was a nightmare for my battery

now adding widgets work.
if i tap on the contacts widget, it takes a long time for it to read my contact list. and when it does show the list, it's not in alphabetical order, so it's difficult to find the particular person i want to add.
Thanks for all the hard work. it's only a minor glitch so no sweat

Look on the first post for the Developers Manual. It explains how to create new widgets.

I'll see onto that later today
adding program shortcut widgets are fine. but somehow (although im not that sure) adding contacts widget increases the memory consumption.
also, everytime i reboot with a contact widget added, it asks me if i want to add a custom image or not
Ya, this rocks, Its good, I need to make some widgets tho, Thanks for another great version, I have been using 31 for the past 3 months on my TP

Changelog
iPhoneToday v1.5.2 (Apr 15, 2010)
Improved scrolling performance. It should be really fast when there is no wallpaper or there is a gradient or image background for the mainscreen pages. Under these conditions you could even enable alpha blend on background without any performance loss.
Improved animation performance.
Added new animation effects. The available ones are: "None", "Expand rectangle from center", "Zoom out from center", "Zoom in to center", "Expand rectangle from clicked area", "Zoom out from clicked area", and "Zoom in to clicked area".
Added "animation" tab in options where you can select the animation effect, the animation duration, and whether to launch the application before the animation.
The "out of screen" tab got more options. You can now configure to stop scrolling when there are no more icons in a given direction.
Added an option to tile the background images.
Included a couple of tileable textures.
Included an iPhone background for the BottomBar.
Included some nicer looking bubbles.
When adding a new icon, it is now by default inserted at the end of the list not at the beginning.

For PNDs added a "KB" button next to the "OK" and "X" buttons.
icons.xml and settings.xml are now always saved with DOS new lines.
Center button of D-pad jumps to first page.

Fixed non updating "Calendar & Appointments", "Unplayed Voice Mails" and "Irda State" icons.
Fixed exec alt of "Missed Calls & Signal Strength & Operator Name" icon.
Fixed an issue when text's color is black.
Other minor fixes and improvements...
iPhoneToday v1.5.1 (Apr 3, 2010)
Using registry notifications instead of polling for updating notifications (bubbles, date, time, etc.). Notifications (and reloadIcon) should now appear immediately. Battery foot print should also be smaller.
Icon, text, circles, offset sizes, etc. are scaled automatically if the application is launched in a different resolution than the one in settings.xml (LastConfiguredAt).
Bubbles are alpha blended.
Position, size, text, etc. of bubbles are configurable.
Added background image support for static bars (bottom bar and top bar). Gradient background can now be used even when a wallpaper is set. The background (gradient or image) of static bars can be alpha blended to the wallpaper.
ShrinkToFit option of static bars now shrinks the text height in addition to the icon width.
Added font settings dialog.
Renamed "GPRS State" icon to "Cell Network State".
Added "Missed Calls & Signal Strength & Operator Name" icon.
Added "Unplayed Voice Mails" icon.
Added "Irda State" icon.
Added "Phone Profile" icon.
No sound or vibration on launch if current profile is silent.
When battery is charging a dot is shown before the battery percentage to indicate charging.
If operator name is empty show NA for signal.
Changed the field "type" in the icon settings dialog from dropdown to droplist.

Added a separate text quality option for text inside icons.
Added new pressed icons.
Added minimize OnLaunchIcon option (you have to manually edit settings.xml).
Added UpdateWhenInactive option (you have to manually edit settings.xml) to always update notifications even when window is inactive. The default value is 0 to save battery.
iPhoneToday v1.5.0 (Mar 21, 2010)
Fixed battery drainage issue.
Improved quality of icons by using the averaging interpolation method for resizing them.
Added an alternative method for alpha blending to the background that should be faster but requires more memory.
Added an option to "use mask for transparency" that might help the scrolling performance on some devices.
Added text quality option (Default, Draft, Nonantialiased, Antialiased, Cleartype, Cleartype comp), but it is available only when alpha blend on background is disabled.
Added facename (font family) option for the text labels under the icons, the header text, and the special icons text. (you have to manually configure the XML, no dialog yet).
Added shadow and roundrect options for the header text.
Added --winkey command to display the start menu.
Added an option to show battery percentage while charging (enabled by default).
Changed default value of vibration for non phone devices to 0.
Fixed crash when copying icons from topbar.
Fixed bug with pressed icon not displaying correctly when alpha blend is enabled.

Installer now displays a warning that today plugin will not be available if you choose to install to storage card.
Some minor fixes and improvements.

Fixed degraded quality of images of previous release (image resizing is done by the Windows Imaging API again).
Fixed a bug with background resizing.
Added RoundRect option (for now only in the XML, no dialog yet) to display a black rounded rectangular behind the text (like Android).
iPhoneToday v1.4.8 (Mar 14, 2010)
Using LPNG library (an extremely light-weight library - it just adds 6KB) if imaging API fails (mostly helpful for PNDs where imaging API is often missing). This allows now all devices to load and display transparent PNG icons.
Huge memory savings compared to v1.3 when AlphaBlend is disabled (32bit icons are now converted to whatever the screen supports, usually 16bit).
Fixed text labels being 1-2 pixels left of the center of the icons.
Fixed background color of options dialog to be the windows default color for menu backgrounds.
Added --keyboard command to show/hide the keyboard.
Only for PNDs: added a help button (question mark) on the title bar of the options and icon settings dialogs (next to the OK button) that toggles the appearance of the keyboard.
The 3-letter abbreviation of the day of the week is now by default displayed in the language of the user locale.
Converted the included pressed icons from gray scale to true color since LPNG only supports loading true color PNG images.
Resized the bubble icons.
Added a warning that scrolling will be slow when AlphaBlend is enabled on devices that do not natively support it.
iPhoneToday v1.4.7 (Mar 09, 2010)

Uhmm, why did you open a thread about this again?

I believe because he's not the author of the earlier versions (he's picked up the project where the original author abandoned it) and wants to be able to maintain his own thread and starting post. If he had just replied in the original thread, the thread owner might not update the starting post links and only those who read the whole thread (which is 287 pages long) would find the new version. I think that a new thread for a new author and new "life" for the project makes sense.
tronikos,
It looks really good. Some things...
1. Tapping the screen briefly flashes an all-white screen (the same that shows when loading and during the "animation" when pressing an icon). If anything, it'd be nice if it (and the loading screen and "animation" screen) were black, but, ideally, there shouldn't be any flashing at all, of course.
2. Is there an option to not display the taskbar? I realize that that's the normal way to get at the keyboard, but it'd be good to allow for alternatives (like MioPocket's MiniBar).
3. Flipping pages isn't a smooth as it seemed in the YouTube video that you pointed me to earlier. Could it be that the "movement" settings have been changed or is my device's 400MHz processor not powerful enough to handle the program smoothly?
4. Even though settings.xml indicates an icon width of 45px, when I loaded the program, the "autoconfigure" set it to 51, which made the icons look bad. I'm guessing that the program picks an icon size based on the resolution, which is probably a good thing, but perhaps it should choose from icon sizes that are multiples of 8 or 16, i.e. ones that would still look good when downsampled from the original 96x96 icons.
5. An icon on the button bar to access options and add icons would be a lot more intuitive than clicking and holding the background. Do you think that that's doable?
6. Have you made any progress in adding multiple categories (ex. "Settings", "Tools", "Apps", etc.) and a nav bar to switch between them?
7. Have you made any progress in adding icons outside of the main area and bottom area, so that we aren't restricted to them? I'd like to be able to define an icon anywhere that I want, including by giving exact coordinates.
Sorry to throw so much out there for you to address. I'm just, as you know, thinking about how I might adapt MioPocket to it, especially without having to remove features (such as the quick launch button, the SideBar, faux taskbar with start menu button and so on). It's really good so far and suitable for a lot of other people's uses already, though.
BTW, you might want to include some more information and a screenshot in the first post for those who aren't already familiar with the project . I suspect that that's your plan... just mentioning it in case not.
Wow this is really exciting. I love this app, it's really given my phone a new lease on life without its stylus.
I'm really curious to know what the change log for this version might look like, since iphone today is so central to my usability I'm a little more hesitant than I would normally be to just dive in and try a new version..
Tronikos,
can you please add me to the project on google code project?
My google account is: [email protected]
Thanks
egzthunder1,
I created this thread for the reasons Osprey00 mentioned.
I got permission from MiToNiOeS to create a google code project for iPhoneToday and upload my changes there. I hope that this move will help its further development.
Osprey00,
1. That was a stupid bug I introduced just before uploading it. Only the exe version is affected. I fixed it and uploaded 1 hour ago. Please redownload it.
2. Check the "Fullscreen" option under Misc tab. Also since the taskbar will automatically be shown whenever iPhoneToday loses focus you might want to check the "Never show taskbar" option too.
3. If my bugfix for #1 didn't do it please experiment with the "Movement" settings.
4. Yes MiToNiOeS originally had code to autoconfigure the icon size based on the screen width. I might change it to be multiple of 8 but the included icons will have to be updated too. I included MiToNiOeS's ones that are 90x90 and not 96x96. For now change AlreadyConfigured in the settings.xml to 1 and set the icon size from a script depending on the screen resolution.
5. Yes it is doable but since I don't have a device anymore (I got as a gift a nokia phone that fits my gps needs too) I am not planning to add any new features, only bugfixes.
6. Manually enter a header text in the icons.xml for each screen and change the mainscreen's top offset and header height in the options. For changing screens if you don't like flipping you can use the circles at the bottom.
7. Sorry no plans to do this.
bluenote73,
I changed quite a few things that I don't remember them now.
Once I find time to look into my code changes I will create a detailed changelog.
mathwiz314,
OK I added you.
Anyone,
If you can help in any way please feel free to ask me to add you.
You don't have to know coding. The project needs a summary page and documentation in the wiki.
Nice work, I was playing around with it in the CE emulator. I renamed your .exe as SysInfo-Start in my emulator miopocket setup. It started up everything fine and Iphone today as GUI. I get the white flashes sometimes too, but other then that it operates good. I would like a full time clock display on GUI. I would like more pages( might be possible havn't played with it enough yet), and be able to edit the dot buttons to easily navigate pages by pic or text (i.e. multimedia, setting, navigation). Going into the task bar setting and unchecking keep task bar on top, completely hide task bar, which is good IMO. I need to test it more, but your doing a fine job with this GUI.
Awesome that someone gets his hands on this.
Can't wait to see what will come next.
Hi tronikos
Thank you for keeping alive this wonderful today plugin
Hi, I don't really know much about coding but I can lend a hand if there are any graphics that need done. I don't know if this is the issue mentioned above but I have an HD2 and the icon resolution looks really low. Might I suggest using some of the many icon packs available in the HD2 Themes and Apps section or something.
Sorry if I said something noobish lol I haven't had a proper good look at it yet.
Dan
As requested, can you put a screenshot in this thread (or, at least, in your google code page) ?
I think we'are reacting better with a screenshot...
As someone said in the past : 'A pic is better than a thousand words' !
Good luck with the project !
@Osprey, Tronic and all Miopocket friends
After playing arround a little bit, all in all a very good tool. It is easy to add some pages and also create a header for the pages, so Miopocket Windows seven page folders (Favorites, Navigation etc.) could easily adapted. Also vertical scrolling is possible, but I don't know how to create pages?
Flipping pages was a mess at the beginning, instead off flipping, it always went to icon edit mode. I played arround with the movement settings, but had the feeling nothing is changing. At the very end, I disabled right klick in the settings. Now flipping works very good, but the way to come back to the setting page is closed. ==> Any ideas?
Regarding icons:
I added two icons from this board (not allowed to link)
to compare. On the picture these are the first two adobe test and igo test. By far looking better, but no problem to change.
Sorry, I am not allowed to link to image banana and , so I have to attach the picture as a zip file
Use imageshack (or photobucket...) to upload your pictures and post the forum version of the links (with pic thumbnail). Without the attachments size restrictions the bandwith cost would go through the roof!
@frmariam
it's the same. I am a new member (Feb 2009!!!!) and not allowed to link to external pages. BTW also internal links seems to be not allowed.
Probably somebody could link to the picture?
img709.imageshack.us/img709/7913/capture004k.png
Schlork,
Putting an original copy of setting.xml in your install will take you back to default.
I noticed that the clock and calender icon are actually the clock and calender and can be customized in options somewhat. I placed the clock on bottom bar. Still trying to figure out adding pages and headers and still working with it in CE emulator.

I don't know if we are all working on the same page. Some of the posters are redirected from Tronikos to post here. We are owning thumb GPS devices, which became Porsche's since Osprey developed Miopocket for. Even now more with ability to have iphone functions.
@[email protected]
Thanks! It's not a problem to switch back, I could easily write a script and put it on a button for that. But I am wondering, if there is not another solution?
@sinoo
pretty thanks! And OT how can I convince Mods to be not a spammer?
Hi, where can i fin the "full" changelog?
Hope I can help
I know a little about coding, but I make mean FAQ and display pages (see links in my sig). I am very happy that this got picked back up and look forward to new releases. Anyone from the old iPT forum knows how much I was involved there, and I hope I can help as much here and on the google code page.

[APP] Desktop Visualizer - Custom Icons!

*I ran across this app and thought I would share it since it doesn't seem very well known on the forums..
*I have no affiliation with the application or developers and take ZERO credit or responsibility for anything to do with it at all.
Since there aren't many themes out right now and a lot of themes have undesired features to some users, I personally prefer to choose application icons individually.
This is where Desktop Visualizer comes in. The app allows you to set a custom icon, or picture, for an app or activity to your homescreen (it does not change the icon in the launcher) and also the ability to change the app label and style.
You can create a variety of different sized widgets or create a shortcut from Desktop Visualizer within the launcher.
By setting the app as a widget it will remove the 'box' that Espresso puts around apps, but setting the shortcut from Desktop Visualizer in the launcher will keep the app icon within that box.
The app provides a very simple way to help you further customize your homescreen to your likings.
Here is a screenshot to show how the different ways Desktop Visualizer makes the shortcuts:
The DropBox icon is the '1x1 small widget', the Facebook is the '1x1 small ss', and the BestBuy is set from the Desktop Visualizer app (not as a widget, so it still has the box). I put DoodleJump there to give a comparison to a stock icon. Icons are from the HD Icon Pack (link below)

Just edited the picture links, they should be ok now. Thanks for the heads up.
Nice find. Took boxes away from all the apps. Gives more of a stock feel. Wish could change app icons to that of vanilla icons tho
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
I'd liketo understand how to create an icon pack:
every time I flash a new rom, I've to reconfigure every widget. I make large use of Desktop Visualizer for this... and it's a pain to setup it back again...
also helps you get that WP7 look and feel
desktop visualizer suddenly does not work anymore...
suddenly I cannot set own widgets anymore- just tiny little shortcuts.
When trying to set a widget and have chosen the applications and the imagefile it just says something like " could set shotcurt or widget." and nothing happens.. I tried it with different images and widgets sizes nothing went anymore. I used it until now without any problems- does somebody experienced the same?
Solved: don't know why- but just happens when I use ES Datei Explorer!!!
Thanks for sharing. I will try it. ;D

Lightning Launcher
Description and features
Lose the fat, keep the muscle. Be warned, Lightning Launcher is on steroïds.
Lightning Launcher: Lose the fat, keep the muscle. Be warned, this launcher is on steroïds.
Tips, please read this first:
Use "LLW App Widget" if you want to add Android widgets.
This app is started through the HOME key and not from your app drawer since LL is itself a launcher. If you cannot select it through the HOME key then you need to clear the defaults for your current launcher.
for any question or suggestion, do not hesitate to ask: [email protected]
This application has been designed to minimize memory usage and be fast: the more memory you have for your applications, the faster they will run. In other words Lightning Launcher has been built from the ground to preserve your phone's resources and keep it smooth.
In spite of its ridiculously small size (less than 60kb!), Lightning Launcher is packed with a fair amount of features and brings to Android a very unique concept: the home screen can be seen as a giant surface on which you are free to put icons, shortcuts or widgets exactly where YOU WANT, and not limited to a 4x4 grid. Pinch to zoom in or out the desktop, use the home key to switch between a full scale view or the normal size, or double tap on empty space as in the web browser to immediately see all your icons. And everything stay functional whatever the zoom level is: widgets are alive, icons can be clicked, and so on.
Lightning Launcher drops rarely used features and focuses on useful ones but comes nevertheless with numerous customization options. Icons and widgets can be moved, scaled and even rotated freely. Each object can be configured independently, you can change the font, the label, the icon and much more !
The package is extremely small, only a few kilobytes. What it means is that the Android system do not need to load several megabytes to run this app. Lightning Launcher starts faster and run in perfect harmony with your other apps.
For people kindly asking why the CALL_PHONE permission is needed (notice that this the only one needed by LL!): this is needed for direct call shortcuts, and this permission is included in all major launchers, including Go and Pro.
For other people not asking why and putting stupid one star comments: go away, you have just lost a unique chance to try something new and better, have a good day.

FTL Launcher Pro
Description and features
Make no mistake, this is the fastest launcher you'll ever run. Small, light, configurable. The Gingerbread launcher as it should have been. No useless stuff, no compromises. Performance and usability are the driving forces here.
On version 3.0 Pro users have a all new game to play now: The Pro version can use existing ADW, GoLauncher and LauncherPro Icon and Dock themes, giving FTL and unprecedented array of possible theming. You can even mix Dock and Icon themes from different launchers. Google Play is yours for the take.
And of course you still have the other extras: configurable homsecreen grid from 4x4 to 6x6, resizeable widgets, and, never seen in any launcher: control over core Android window animation speed.
Important: FTL supports all resolutions and ICS, but only 800x480, 854x480, 960x540 and 480x320 devices have 3D drawer enabled! Also ICS has no 3D drawer because it does not contain the "old" opengl interface. But as it is natively accelerated anyway, 2D drawer should be very fast.
Features:
Theming support: The Pro version can use existing ADW, GoLauncher and LauncherPro Icon and Dock themes, giving FTL and unprecedented array of possible theming.
Tweaked for extreme speed and smoothness
Fully accelerated 3D Waterfall app drawer
Option to use "normal" 2D app drawer
Configurable support for resizeable widgets: only when adding them to the homescreen, you cannot edit them later.
Configurable Homescreen grid: From 4 to 6 rows, and 4 to 6 columns
Configurable number of homescreens: from 1 to 9 with configurable default homescreen
Choice between 3 and 5 icon Dock
Configurable Dock icons size
Configurable "swipe down" and "swipe down" independently to any of the following:
Includes anim speed: precise control over core Android windows/transition animation speed
Configurable Support for launcher auto-rotation
Configurable Infinite looping of homescreens
Configurable support for scrollable widgets

Which is the most stable lockscreen in the list? I just want a simple lockscreen that will work with Poweramp and stuff. I seriously hate it when Samsung modifies the stock lockscreen.

very nice...I'm liking this
This looks nice. Will this have the same functionalities as SWApp Link ?
If not, does SWApp Link work on Moto360 ?
awesome. its great!!!
*SWApp Launcher dev Update 1.01*
• Application UI is fixed on Lollipop phones
• Code optimization, the application is far quicker than before
• Middle panel is opened first on Watch too
• Option to disable vibrate when swipe to launch app on the watch
• New icon to force shortcuts sync (in case you use another watch for example)
there seems to be a problem with lollipop phones when trying to selects apps or shortcuts. I have uploaded a fixed version on the store, it should be available in a couple of hours.
Glad to see you here, man. Loved your work on the Omate while it was short lived, but here, nonetheless. Will absolutely give this a try and report back! :good:
Improvements
I have try this launcher on my LG Watch R.
It work good.
3 improvements.
1 - choose what kind of animation. I use swipe right to open. The launcher open with animation bottom to top of the screen.
2 - After choose a shortcut and close it, i must close the launcher. I think that it has sense that the launcher autoclose after choose one shortcut.
3- Choose background color.
Continue your great work.

It seems it disappeared!
When i woke up this morning, SWApp Launcher status was "unpublished" in the play store: it's play store page was unavailable ???

1 - choose what kind of animation. I use swipe right to open. The launcher open with animation bottom to top of the screen.
2 - After choose a shortcut and close it, i must close the launcher. I think that it has sense that the launcher autoclose after choose one shortcut.
3- Choose background color.
Continue your great work.

Great I'll test it
App on phone doesn't save settings. For example, I can't turn off swipe area.
Sync and cloud buttons also do nothing. No confirmation is received that it has done something.
I'm on a htc one m8 running kitkat 4.4.4

A little update...
After installing the app again, and never touch the settings... It doesn't display the swipe area. However... Close after starting app... Is on by default but it never closes after starting an app.
Also if you swipe on the watch (lg g watch r) it takes some time for swap launcher to appear... It's not nice and swift to react on user input. Maybe it can be made to react a bit faster?
I like the app and it's on screen appearance. So I hope it's possible to fix these Lil bugs ?
Great app, i'm using it to launch wear and phone apps.
I like it but i would that you could optimize the UI for square screen (i have a Sony sw3). For example permits to choose round or square UI.
Another feature that i would is choose background color.
Thank you :good:
