I have a wallpaper that I REALLY want to use on my Vibrant. I just can't get it to center the way it needs to be. I use the weather widget clock, (Sense looking clock widget), and would like the prism to fit under the clock.
This picture was taken at Primrose Hill in London.
Any help or advice would be VERY GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I'm no pro but I'll see what i can do...
Take a screen shot of it on your phone with all your widgets so i'll know how it has to be adjusted. Then post that here.
Ok. But, my phone is not rooted. Can I still take a screenshot?
I'm not sure... I use a program called shootme and with that you have to be rooted. Dont know if there's something else out there that'll work.
Why aren't you rooted? It's sooooo easy to do and does so much.
Btw, can't you just highlight the picture and choose the part you want so that it fits to your needs? Just resize when choosing the wallpaper...

I almost always root my phones. But, I haven't really had any need to with this one. Can't think of anything I want that it doesn't already do. (Except screenshots I guess...haha).
No, that actually stretches it out bad. And, it makes the pyramid huge. I tried resizing, and it puts the pyramid right behind the clock.
If you have ADB working, you could enable USB debugging and use DDMS to take a screenshot.
I'm not the greatest at Photoshop/GIMP, but here's my contribution:

I used the smudge tool, hopefully it's not visible. It's exactly 960x800, and I used Fancy Widget as a guide (the one you use is paid and goes with another widget, right?).
Yeah that pic is amazing

I REALLY appreciate the help! The smudge work is good. But, the light entering the prism on the left is off a good bit. A would also like the prism itself a good bit smaller. I am not criticizing at all. I am thankful you went thru the trouble. Just not quite what I was trying to get accomplished.

Also, it would be really cool, (although I don't know if it is even possible), to still have the people at the bottom remain in the picture. It looks like they are paying homage to Floyd. Haha.

been a while, but i think you go to the home screen, hit menu, edit
it should zoom out and show previews of the windows with an "X" icon on the upper corner. form there you should be able to delete and add screens.
You're a god..... thx
home screen issues!
i just got my FIRST TOUCHSCREEN/ANDROID phone! Motorola atrix 4g... and i hate the quick launch buttons that you cant send to trash! but though i really just wanted to keep stock,, i eally like the others! (adw, launcher pro, and go launcher ex!)

So, this here would be my very first post to XDA Forums! With that being said, I think it's safe to say I'm somewhat, if not very much a noob.
But let's get into it shall we?
I recently (2 days ago) flashed the Liberty 1.5 Rom onto my D2. Previous to that I rooted my phone about two months prior using the Z4 easy root app, but shortly after realized I didn't really know what I was doing (all I wanted to do was delete, what I now know is called 'bloatware' apps off of my phone) Then I found Liberty. so beautiful! .. so I figured out how to flash it easily by dl it from my pc and copy and pasting it to my sd card then loading using D2 Bootstrap Recovery.
Okay okay, now REALLY getting to what this is all about..
I saw, and fell in love with the Kovicon Hybrid icon pack. I want it!.. I just don't know how to go about getting it! I already dl'd it onto my pc from a Droid Forum site droidforums.net/forum/xeudoxus/48683-release-kovicon-hybrid-icon-pack.html to be exact. And now I'm not sure where to go from there. Do I use MetaMorph, do I unload the .zip file from Bootstarp Recovery?
Please help!! I'd be eternally grateful!!
Thanks for bearing with my, how you say, noob..ie..ness?
It's all good. Everyone has to start somewhere.
I glanced over the article, and it looks like you'd use Metamorph. I am, honestly, to lazy to type up a full set of instructions, so if you will forgive that short falling, I will direct you over to a set of pretyped instructions:
http://droidpirate.com/2010/08/18/installing-custom-metamorph-theme/
If ya have any further questions, encounter any problems, need some elaboration, etc feel free to ask.
Oh, I understand, I too suffer from said laziness .. Okay, I am looking into it now! This may take some time ha Thanks for responding in the first place! :-D
Omgosh!!! I did it!!! Thank you sooooooo much!!! this is awesome .. now I just need to find out how to change the launcher thing, the thing that normally has the app list button, and phone button and browser .. do you have any idea how to do that???
Congradulations. And, I prob do (or atleast can find instructions if i dont), but I am not sure what you are wanting to change? To a diffrent launcher? Change the buttons that are there? Change the look/background? Something else entirely? Give me alittle more info, and I'll do my best to find you the info you need.
hahah alright, well I tried posting a rather amazing picture that summed it up completely, but since I am so new it wouldn't let me .. Okay, it's the button(s) on your main screen. The one that is normally in the middle, if you tap it, it brings up all your apps. And then next to it usually on the left is the phone button to dial numbers. Then usually on the right is a button for a browser or sms! .. Ya know???
That's usually how it is by default? Unless you mean you wanna apply a new theme to it?
Maybe try PMing me the pic/link?
Sorry to get back like a whole day later! .. I found out it's called a dock. And yeah I was just wondering if I could custom theme that, and where to find different dock icons and such .. I know I could always use Adw Launcher, but I can never really get into that.
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App
I dont really think you can theme the stock launcher that much. Though custom launchers - such as ADW, Launcher Pro, etc - have a wide variety of customization options.
Gilgamesh, you are pretty wrong. You CAN theme launcher2.apk
If you look at my pink steel theme it is completely different from other launcher2s. It has 4 shortcuts at the bottom 6 items in the menu and a 3d app drawer. I could even make the dock invisible if I wanted to. You can't do as much to the stock launcher (launcher2) but you can still do a bunch of customization.
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App
Didn't say you couldn't do it at all, just was saying the options were more limited compared to the other launchers. Being that the other launchers have far more options, far more information, imo are easier to theme, and again imo preform allot better; it would, as always, imo, make the OPs life allot easier if he focused on the other launchers.
I have been waiting on this for quite a while. VTL Launcher! A scrolling dock bar across the bottom in landscape and portrait orientation. Gojimi of the GTablet devs has done it again. Still beta but works great and is built using ADW Launcher source.
I installed it earlier today on my GTab and loved it, so decided to give it a shot on the Nook and it works great on it too. As I said, it is still beta so there are a lot more features to be implemented over the coming releases.

Be sure to give gojimi a big old thanks for all his great work when ya go to grab it!
Have fun..... HTR

Hmm I'm using opera on the nook and when I go to download it it gives me the file as launcher.zip. I've also tried to download on the computer using IE and I get a zip file as well. Tried dolphin and it downloads as an apk so thats weird but thanks for your help.

That's very strange. Must be an Opera thing, you could have most likely downloaded it as a zip file then renamed it to .apk afterwards. When all else fails you should try the stock Android browser which is what I always use for downloading.
Glad to hear ya finally got it downloaded as an apk.

I can confirm that you do have to rename it to APK if you downloaded as a zip from Opera Mobile
This launcher is nice. Thanks for the link.
I'm getting a bug where it defaults to a dock that looks like the original ADW one. Anyone else getting that? Restarting the launcher fixes it.
Liking this currently. Thanks

I've had the same thing happen to me several times - the dock reverts back to the default, and restarting the app fixes it.
Other than that the launcher is perfect for me, thanks for posting it!

I have had that happen a time or two and all I did to fix it was rotate my nook to portrait mode then back to landscape.
Just a heads up, v1.4 beta is now available from same thread. Has a few fixes and a few new features. Most notably, right and left side docks.
Don't know if the aforementioned bug was fixed in this release or not. Let me know if that bug pops back up, will do the same for y'all if it happens to me.
Sent from my GTablet running CM7
The addition of side docks and a centered bottom dock finally made me switch. So far its good
It's interesting and pretty slick already... I tried it for about an hour and then went back to Zeam.
I wish someone would create a launcher that let me specify which edge of the screen I want the dock on and then have it stay there even when rotated from portrait to landscape and vice-versa. The icons themselves should rotate, of course, so they are always facing up, but I want them to rotate in place, not move to another "wall" when I rotate the device.
bump: A lot of the bugs have been fixed in v1.5

HomeCustomizer by Adrian DC : http://arcsgatebyadriandc.comze.com/ics_homecustomizer.html
Useful with : [Script] XperiaHomeManager for SONY ICS ROMs
The application will allow you to set your own settings on the Home application of the SONY ICS ROM,
just by following simple choices at the beginning !
The script handles the apk decompilation, editing and recompilation,
aswell as the build of flashable zip at the end for the installation of the files !
Provided apks are working fine with the SONY ICS ROM 4.0.3 and 4.0.4.
If you find anything wrong, or have a bad rendering on the phone with some of the options,
please post a comment with explanations on the problem and the Installation Details string,
for example, "HomeCustomizer-4.0-7Scs-A5x4-Rot-Ion-HAFI-ALFI-HTD-11px-HWA".
Thanks to vr5411 who helped me for some of the functionnalities and for the new Home apks !
Thanks to Pandemic who first tested the Application with Xperia GX Home !
Bye !

No that's because I don't want any old versions linked online,
I first want to have a version finalised before release..
I'm still working on little changes and improvements,
therefor beta tests are welcome and much appreciated,
like papayayoghurt did since the beginning.
I'm someone who prefers a finished work over a rushed one.
I hope you do understand.

I have a version 2 Beta 2 working pretty good, contact me by PM, I can give the link directly.
Tried the beta version...
Chose nxt home

But I got the screen indicator at top (xperia s)
chose 4*4 app menu

In the Beta 2 you tested :
As indicated, the Ion indicators aren't finished at all,
I started it 3 hours ago? something like that..
It needs to be finished.
I'm working on the Ion for 3.1 Home, will get on 4.0 afterward.
Yeah, the 4x4 has to be reactivated, don't worry..
Hi! I don't know if it's possible but could you also add a feature to include a dockable corners like the modded homescreens on gingerbread? You know.. The bubble like thingy on the corners on which you could put your shortcut icons.
I'm not sure about that at all...
First I'll try to have everything working fine, then I'll see how the corners work..
I think my ion settings are working great, looks fantastic on Home 3.1, but Home 4.0 still to be finished.
Static wall never worked do far so I'll look into it soon, same thing for 1 screen home..

Thanks! You could take one of the homescreens of the smaller Xperia devices like live with walkman, xperia mini pro etc. They have the bubble corner thingys in their homescreens.

Yeah don't worry I know where to look.
But I'm not sure it'll work with 4.0 aswell, maybe only the 3.1 will have it..
I'll try, don't worry, but I need some time since I have other things to do too.
News, sorry for double post :
What do you guys would think of a beta version released?
I might release HomeCustomizer v2.b3 as a Beta test version,
almost everything works fine now, I even got the static wall working,
though there still is a bug with landscape static wall, still, nothing bad..
I tested top corners, woaw, I hate both their design and functionnality xD !
Won't work on Home 4.0, they removed the unneeded things..
But I'll try to see if I can add it too...

There's a problem I need to solve before releasing HomeCustomizer.
I did add Changes Logs on the webpage if someone's interested..
I think he's asking for the home.apk with 5x4 desktop mod in your screenshot not the home customizer itself Just clarifying things out

Yeah but since the Home I presented was a test build with my HomeCustomizer,
and since it wasn't finished at the time, meaning the Home.apk wasn't perfect,
and since it still isn't 100% perfectly finished, you can see both things
are more then directly linked together ;D
But the problem I was talking about earlier seams to be gone, so release nearing itself ^^
