Is it possible for us to have those shiny panels on android?
Then we can place icons/shortcut on top of it to make them stand out?
*Note*
I remembered i could do that thing with window mobile phones

Seems like nobody knows the answer to this, please share knowledge if you have an idea

if those are just png files in android then I'm pretty sure you can but you or someone would have to make them look like that as in coloring the old image file from whatever apk those apply to then reload the edited apk back onto your android phone. So I'm saying yes with a more experienced package creator. I myself have been doing my own editing and picture creating, just haven't figured out how to properly compact the apk yet.

Those are panels in the mobile sense i believe they're not png files, its more like widgets i believe? then we can place an icon/shortcuts on top of that to makes them stand out

am still a noob in android world, but i think it can be done so am following this thread hoping to find an answer soon

Yes

Android Creators/developers/etc... look to look into something like this
So we can make the home screen icons look even more stand out with the shade/shiny panels...
The original screen is still cool but it a bit plain to my opinion

[FONT] BN 3rd Place DROID

OK so I've made it official and contacted the creator of the BN 3rd Place font asking for permission to modify his font. (I know this is long over due and most have the font already but now its legit)
The only modifications that were made were to make it look more like the font used in Verizon's Droid commercials.

The original font: BN 3rd Place
Created by Ben Nathan of hafontia.com
Modified by sickbox
NOTE: This is a Hebrew font and will show up further down the list than English fonts in Photoshop.
Ok, donning my flame-proof suit before asking questions. (I did try putting "BN 3rd place" into the search box first...honest, this was the only hit I got) So is this a font you install to your phone for your viewing on the phone? Or can you incorporate it into texts or emails you send from the phone so others see it? Does it work in conjunction with another app? How do you go about installing it? Just trying to get edumacated. Your patience will be appreciated.
Tanks,

I was actually hoping for something a little more exciting 'phone-wise', but thanks for the answer just the same.
Sorry, this was not intended to be a font to change the text on your phone it was fixed up for people who want to use [insert name of word processing or photo editing software] to create content with a verizon droid like font.
You may be able to use it on a rooted phone but I have no idea how to change fonts since I haven't gotten around to trying it yet.
It's pretty easy to do.
Rename the ttf to droidsans.ttf (It will only change non-bold letters, though.) and place it under /system/fonts.

[Q] Evo Dialer / Phone

I was playing with my friends evo the other day... and i really liked his dialer/phone app. is there anyway i can port that over? or is it phone specific? can i just grab the apk over from his phone or a rom?
Pictures &/ link would help quite a bit

Pretty sure system apps are phone specific, the framework is tailored specifically for the Evo.....you can try it, and it if doesnt work just do a restore

how would we able to tell if it would work on the vibrant just by looking at a picture? it doesnt matter what the app looks like.......its the dialer from the evo, which is a system app unique to the model...thats all we need to know.....its obviously safe to say that the app is most likely not coded to function on devices other than the Evo
I suggest just downloading Dialer One from the Market. It has a similar layout to the Sense dialer, and you can customize it how you want. That's why we have 3rd party devs
you could also try "takephone" dialer....just to give you some options
it has cool skins, and a very cool scrollable favorites bar
The EVO runs HTC Sense so there are too many differences in the frameworks that the dialer in HTC Sense needs for it to work. This has been a question that people have asked since the first release of Sense.
there are some system apps that can work on other devices, but it just depends on how much the manufacture of the device changed the system app to use things that they added to the framework. But this is one that will not work on a non-Sense device.

[Q] Mod phone.apk to display bigger pictures?

there are a lot of threads/posts on the forum with moded phones.apk to display bigger contacts pictures, i already tried a lot of phone.apk's and none of these are working fine in our galaxy ace (FC), maybe someone can do it?
i already tried to modify the xml files, but i got a lot of errors when compiling the apk and i don't even know if im right with some values (my first try doing something like this hehe)
yes, i know there is an apk called full screen caller id, but i like more the "android" style.
examples:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
info about how to do it, here: Russian
info here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1050251
im not asking for a full screen because of contacts pictures limitations, etc. i just would love to have a slightly bigger contact picture.
thanks

i am using Smart CallerID
i am also searching for modification of phone.apk.
this would be nice ... the only mod i managed to do with success on phone apk was changing that horrible green background ... bigger picture sizer would be awsome!

EDIT**
found the file:
just not good quality when applied to my phone, is there a way to fix the resolution? Im not good with photo editing
How picky are you about how it looks? I can't do anything about the original, but 5 mins in photoshop should produce a very close replica.

that would be sweet
Edit: Ok, here is the 800x480 version of the picture. The caveat is that I can not get it to display properly on my phone. Under the select wallpaper screen it fits perfectly, but then it shows up funky when you look at the actual home screen.
Edit 2: Use this version, but do not crop out the black. For some reason it is only displaying 1/2 of the image, so by adding extra it displays the whole wallpaper cleanly.
Edit 3: If you need a scrollable version let me know.

THANKS! now if only i could get the icons, your the best!
In the main Android forum there is a massive thread full of icon sets. I suggest looking there. You probably won't find something identical, but you may find something similar.

REQUEST: Inverted Flipclock (LeeDrOiD 3D 5.4 GSM)

Hi all,
I have been trying and trying but have been unable to follow all of the instructions out there in order to create this myself.
I really just want to swap white flip backgrounds and black number on the large clock widget to the reverse, black flip backgrounds and white numbers.
It seems this is a little harder than I though as just editing the relevant images in fusion.apk was not enough.
Please can someone make this for me?
thanks.
Can anyone help with this? I know there are a number of themes where the flip clock has been changed but none thhat stick close to stock and almost all for CDMA. It would be great if someone would take up this challenge for us GSM'ers....
I got ya. Might take me a day or two. (no free time right now) what I normally do is include it in a skin. I can take a "stock skin" look and invert the clock. Then all you will have to do is install a skin and select and walaa!

Thank you so much. Please do let me know if there is anything you want me to "pull" from the ROM or such like. It would be great is this can be done via a skin rather than a flashable zip!! I do know that the flipclock sits in fusion.apk though so not sure how well it will work.
Thanks though.
The ROM your using....
Does it still look like a stock ROM?
Sense 3.0 ?
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
Yes it does although it has LeeDrOiD tweaks which is an extension of Zeus mod I think, so it can edit colours and lockscreens and rosie on the fly. Just look at the OPENING of the thread in the GSM dev forum.
SwiftKeyed from my LeeDrOiD HTC EVO 3D
if your a DIY then see the zip i attached to this post. place the items in your m10 from your fusion.apk
if your a DIFM then give me just a little bit more time and i will have a installable skin ready.
