(THREAD CLOSED FOR NOW). SORRY GUYS. WILL REOPEN SOONER THAN LATER.
Here is my first attempt at a live wall paper. The settings are very basic. Go to settings> size and make the biggest size and leave FPS alone.
I am still NEW to this and i know it doesn't fit fully on the screen. I'm working on it. Give me time since I work 2 full time jobs LOL.
If someone would like to make a video of it for a preview that would be great
Also, I'm open to suggestions
NOTE. VERY LITTLE BATTERY

Hey, I am getting lots of downloads but no feedback. Please let me know what you would like to see. I am working on an update right now. Please check back tomorrow morning for an update on my status.
I'm really liking your theme. I look forward to what updates bring to it.

At first glance for a first version its not horrible, some work and this will be worthy of 2 - 5 bucks on market
A sharper graffic and text would make this a lot better.
Suggestions
Placement options ( top-middle, bottom-middle, center, left-center, etc. )
Multiple graphics ( colored versions of beats logo, multiple logos )
Multiple or custom text.
Text highlights. ( would be nice if you could get a nice scrolling highlight like old vanilla boot animation. )
Movement only when playing music. Like oe livewallpapers
Touch input beat ? ( option for a deep drum beat upon tap. )
I downloaded 5 hours ago to test.
I have noticed that the animation slows. I don't know if the gpu is low on mem or if its just normal.

Thanks for the input. I'm still super new to all this. I will take all these into consideration. I have been having trouble editing the settings.xml and having it resign. Won't install after doing updates to it??? I will continue working on this and all suggestions.

First off this is not my app. I went back to the vibrant for a bit and found this. It works perfect on the MT4G so I figured I'd show it to you guys.
It was made by avdaga and his original thread is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=918945
Pretty much it's what the 3D gallery should do. Not just sway the pictures when you move the phone but actually scroll through them.
*If you have the aosp 3D gallery installed already you'll need to uninstall it before installing this one.
Heres the original post:

Hi there,
For a school project I have modified the Gallery3D application to enable scrolling, zooming etc by using the accelerometer.
I have made a short demonstration which can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xYkblRYPcY
The mod is based on CyanogenMod-android_packages_apps_Gallery3D-a63279d.
It would be very cool to use scrolling for the selection of pictures within the album grid, so one could open/close the picture by shaking... However, the sourcecode was not so well documented and we couldn't find some functions that would help us implementing this... I must note, the source contains 50+ classes, we have only looked into a few.
For installation instruction check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=752007
Current Functionality added
VolDown: en/disable motion (disabled by default)
Gallery:
● Scroll by tilting
● Reset to first by shaking
Image view:
● Next/Prev by tilting L/R
● Zoom in/out by tilting U/D
● Reset zoom by shaking
With some help I hope to add the following in the future:
● In grid mode: Select center image
● In grid mode: Open image by shaking
● In grid mode: Prevent scrolling out of the grid range
● In picture mode: return to album by shaking
● In picture mode: initialize zooming at current tilt angle, and zoom from there by holding an overlay button (next to the zoomin/zoomout overlay buttons)
If anyone could help me a hand with the image selection, e.g. by giving me a direction where to find functions for this, I'd be very greatfull!
I'm wondering what you think about it, your questions/remarks are very welcome

oh and on a side note I never saw you post those icons i sent you... i couldnt remember if you asked me to just send you links straight to the flashables though lol sometimes I just lost in piles of msgs

I dont remember ever getting the icons, I was just thinking about that yesterday. Maybe I missed the PM or something. I will have to go back and look. I was just playing with my buddies Vibrant. He just put the Froyo update on and was wondering if the lag fix would work. it is so laggy compared to the Glacier. I couldn't believe it. I didnt think his screen seemed much better than mine (good screen) and his seemed kinda color tinted. I dont watch movies or anything like that, I am sure there is a big difference there. I probably couldnt watch a movie on it anyways, that would require me not messing with it for like 2 hours and that aint happening. lol
Hey I saw you were making a zip for that guy in the other thread with the batt icons...YOU ROCK PACK!!! Thanks for everything!!!
Ha...when I posted this you had posted 420 times....I guess I know what I have to do!!
ill resend em to ya... no big deal... I always lose stuff in the ridicules number of messages i have lol

if it says cannot install... you need to uninstall the original one like I said in the OP
in root explorer goto /system/app
goto gallery.apk or gallery3D.apk (cant remember what its called)
and delete it
then install this one
i installed it again in root explorer then appmonster backed it up then deleted from appmonster. then moved this apk and installed. works perfect! Thanks for the tip!

The reason for that is because it is made from the original gallery app. So when you try to install it your device thinks your installing a duplicate application and denies it.

thanks a lot zentronic. i actually followed your video tutorial on how to make boot animations and i was able to get one working. not the one that i want but a trial one. not very difficult at all. the problems i was having was actually getting a decent video of mario getting the 5up. i downloaded an emulator and ran through 3 levels while recording my screen. i am able to watch the video just fine in wmp or other video players but when i try to import the video into a video editor it doesnt want to show up. the screen is mostly black in the video and not usable at all. very perplexing to me and i have no idea how to remedy the situation.
the only other way that i thought of to get decent video of mario is to have the right card in your computer to plug a game system directly into it and capture that video. i currently dont have that option so i figured it would just be easier to ask.
i figured it would be much easier to capture that video and edit it than to try to create that video from scratch. i want it to look like it came from an actual NES. i love that 8-bit look, dont want it to be too cartoony or anything.
i do have a capture card lying around somewhere that i will try to find and install into my computer so i can mess with this or at least have ready for the future.
EDIT
ok found my capture card and will be installing it in just a few min. i know i can edit videos captured this way without problems (ive done it before) so hopefully i will be able to start on this animation today.
I would like to ask in advance if i can use this in my Mario theme?

i am making progress on my version of this. im not sure if zentronic is still planning on taking a stab at it or not. when i get mine done i would have no problem with anyone using it. zentronic seems pretty cool so i doubt he would mind either but better safe than sorry. since this is my first real boot animation it will take some time but i will work on it every chance i get...i think i want this more than anyone else. i have a video now and im in the process of editing. im not a video editor by any means so there is probably an easier way but i dont know about it so i need to take baby steps to make sure i dont screw up. please have patience with me.

hey be patient, took me about a good month to comprehend everything in regards to themeing and theres still alot that i dont know.. patience is key and thanks in advance... =)
ill probably continually post in here to keep anyone interested up to date on my progress. im done working on it for tonight but i think i made a ton of progress today. i was thinking about possibly changing the "5UP" text to something else. maybe "booting" or something like that. id love suggestions as to what you all think could go in its place. i will make sure it looks good though so im thinking a longer phase might be a bit of an eye sore. who knows though. any suggestions will be considered and most likely tested.
huge progress today. the video editing is going much smoother than i though it would (adobe after effects is a pretty sweet program) i should only have 2-2.5 seconds of video left to edit. i over looked that part when i was first doing all my photoshop work. so i need to go back into photoshop which will probably be the longer of the two operations. its very possible that i will get the video editing done today, just taking a break. im sure i will get back to it later. off work for two days so it should be done, at the latest, by thursday evening. now i just hope i dont run into any unforseen roadblocks. i will also post a youtube video so you guys can preview...i love when previews are included.
Keep at it!

So there doesn't seem to be a thread for this specifically for the Optimus line. It's just like it would be for any other device. The best way, I feel, to start is to describe widgets/themes used. If you like what someone has as their setup, compliment them. It's pretty simple. And I would like to remind people to please be appropriate. All that having been said, here is my setup.
I am running Cyanogenmod 7 on an Optimus T, but I'm using the Optimus One's Rom because the one specifically for the T has a camera issue and still doesn't have wifi calling working which would be the one reason I would swap.
I'm using Minimal Magic theme by UpwardSpiral for the T-Mobile Theme Chooser which is part of CM7. I am using ADW Launcher EX and a medley of ADW themes with ADW.faded being the main one used.
This is my Green Lantern Theme. A bit nerdy, sure, but is anyone else as hyped for the upcoming movie?
Left screen is mostly for convenience. I have the power control widget with an assimilation of apps that I use most often.
Middle is the main screen. I'm using picture frame, Minimalistic Text, and Clockr.
Right screen is used mainly for widgets/media. I have my DoubleTwist widget, my countdown timer, (counting down to the premiere of Green Lantern, of course )
date provided once again by Minimalistic Text, and my Pandora Radio widget.
UPDATE!
Ha update on my homescreen. Got tired of the average feel of it. Made it seem too generic android, so here I present to you, the new and improved Green Lantern theme for Optimus.
UPDATE!!
This is the complete theme! I'm much more proud of this than I was before. This is the result of several hours lol. I think it's worth it just for the bragging rights of having something vastly different than everyone else.
Left Screen still for convenience. Minimalistic Text. Middle/Main screen is much more avant garde and I'm thoroughly pleased with it. It uses Desktop VisualizeR that leads to a SiMi Folder with all my apps with a circled png Green Lantern emblem. Right screen is for media/games.
Final Update for my Green Lantern Theme
I know I said the last one was finished, but now I'm done. At least until I figure out how to theme the market. Thanks go to the creators of Minimalistic Text, Dont Panic for his morph dialer, the UOT Kitchen for helping me with the hard stuff, Me for my hours of work on theming/perfecting this lol, and of course, the Green Lantern Corps. haha. But in all seriousness, thanks to the aforementioned. Without them, I would be staring at a dismal looking phone still!
Details: my Green Lantern emblem is a .png for Desktop Visualizer which I have connected to SiMi Folder with all my apps. If you click "in brightest day," you get sent to the market. If you click "in blackest night," my handcent opens up.
My Handcent theme:
Haha last Green Lantern theme
Here is the last update. I can finally focus on making another theme after friday because that's the release date!
Rad theme dude! Looks super sick!

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I checked the whole Optimus sub-forum. Just a broad search, but it yielded no results. I'll check it out.
This is my new theme. I'm calling it Gory Graffiti.
For whatever reason, the red doesn't look uniform on the screen shots, but it is. It's the color #A10000 which is much more vibrant than the one shown. What do you guys think?
So Ive been working on a theme for bleach for awhile now and im very close there is very little left to be done a few more icon's possibly some theme added to the clock and maybe some widgets then it will be finished.
if anyone would like to help me finish the last little bit like i said im very close i will post the screen shots i have and if people want what i have so far i will upload it
i also have a few other wallpapers to go along with it that are sized to fit the phone as well.
I i will post more details later tonight in an edit
Ive added the wallpapers i have so far to the first post and will be adding the theme i have as well. Keep in mind there is still some slight glitches and its not finished there are some aspects that im still working on so bar with me as there will be more updates to come. I plan on changing as many of the default icons as possible and will eventually incorporate more themed apk's in the future.
Things not working:
1. The pull down menu quick settings don't display on and off under there labels but check marks and such do work as well as there function simply so a purely cosmetic problem.
Theme Download
This is the download for v3.0 as said above there will be more to come and more updates as i edit more and im open to suggestions and willing to change things if you would like them changed. If you like my work and would like to see another type of theme pls let me know and ill do my best to accommodate requests.
Hope you enjoy the theme.

nice. if you could get the lock ring to look "bleachy" it would be perfect.
I thought the hollow mask was but im open to suggestions. I was also thinking the hollow flame icon possibly as well. Post an image you would rather see and ill make the change.
Good job looks pretty good...would you mind hooking it up with the wallpaper in the screen caps TIA

Unsure if this has been posted before but by replacing the gta3.set in Android/com.rockstar.gta3 (I think that's correct) you get lights, shadows, blood, better rendering etc. There is no TouchPad specific version that ive seen but this one works. Backup your original just incase.
http://db.tt/CA4uhInX
After you replace it, start up the game and go into controls and move the virtual buttons back to their original positions as they get moved.
Again sorry if double post.
Thanks!
(I take no credit for the modified file)
didn't even know they had GTA for the TP. I'll be looking into this one for sure.
Yep in android market, you may have to tweak build prop for it to show or buy with a different device and side load.

Thx love it!, and lags not so much! Seems alright no overclocking
Okay, after testing I had to revert to original .set file. The new .set file was causing my miui.us to crash randomly on it's own. At first I thought it was caused by my tweaking with overclocking, but even after I reversed those changes I would still randomly get booted out of miui. After I reverted the .set file the crashes stopped. Bummer. I really was digging the brighter graphics (and the blood, lol)-although it the game was noticeably more laggy.
