[Q] Honeycomb clock font on ICS? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everybody. I was just wondering if there is a way of getting the Honeycomb clock font on my ICS start menu & possibly even on the lock screen. I love ICS, but I'm a sucker for that font! Is it even possible? I'm currently on a AOKP ROM on my 10.1 wifi. Just thought I'd ask & any pointers will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

You can always download a third party locksceen app like WidgetLocker and download a honeycomb themed clock.

Yeah, thought about that for the lock screen, but I am more concerned w/ the one in the bottom right corner. Thanks though!

Maybe search for a font changer in the Market... Your rooted so you should be able to find something that will works for you.
Edit: But keep in mind it most likely will change fonts in other parts that use the system fonts.

Many thanks sir. I'll keep searching the font changers.

[Q] Honeycomb lock screen

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knows of a honeycomb lock screen that we could put on to this bad boy?
I am currently using LP+ with the honeycomb theme and would love the lock screen to go with it but cannot seem to find ones except for those tagged on the 'CM7'...

Just installed this app, am very impressed with it's functionality and choice of themes.
Am hoping it's not going to effect the battery usage too much...

[Q] Changing Icon Sets

Hey everyone. I was wondering if there was a method to change the icon set in Touchwiz 4.0 (yes im rooted) to something else other then what they have as stock.
And furthermore, ARE there any icon sets out there? I saw a couple of cool looking screens in the post your screenshot thread, but i'm not sure if that was because they were using some different launcher.
Thanks,
diabolical
I am also interested in this. I really like touch wiz ui and all the features but i strongly dislike the childlike icons. Is there anyway we can change the icons without changing launchers?
I was wondering if we can have the
HTC Sensation XE Lock screen (with the circle to launch)
on the Samsung Galaxy S ll
The HTC lockscreen is cool. Just get the app Agilelock. It duplicates it perfectly. Only issue i found is right when you install, it pops up a message that you cant read, unless you can read some form of chinese. Hit the right button. The left button will download something.

They probably used a theme (with a custom launcher). I think launcher themes change entire icon sets. Other than that, idk.

[APP]GO Locker - WidgetLocker Alternative for Free!

Well, I'm a huge GO fanboy and GO Locker doesn't disappoint. I love it and I'd thought I'd share considering we have limited lockscreen options. I like the Fourkey Theme.

I noticed in Gallery there's drawable-hdpi (37) with all the image files in there. I suppose you could change #37, which is the background of the widget. I guess in theory you could customize any of those files to customize the locker. It's just a guess though and I haven't attempted to try to change anything though.
I wonder if this will eventually become a full blown WidgetLocker/Executive Assistant type replacement. Can you add widgets to this app? Now that would make this an awesome app!
Anyone else get the bonus feature of not being able to swipe homescreens from left to right every now and then unless you swipe the other direction first?
This would happen to me with GOLauncherEX fairly frequently on my GSII , and I have stopped using it because of that. Now I am back on stock TW4 with no issues.

FWIW, I've never had that happen to me once and I've been running Go Launcher EX on my SGS2 almost since the day I got it.
And I've been using Go Launcher as my go-to launcher app for quite a while now, across quite a few different Android phones.

Try switching to conservative governor. Might fix it.

I always use the conservative gov.
But I did a full wipe and reinstall today, so I'll check it out.
Update to the app today, lets you finally pick the background!
Does this let you put widgets on the home screen?
My biggest use for widgetlocker is to have a pandora widget and volume controls on my unlock screen so I can use it [in my workshop or garage] without needing to unlock every time.
Extract image from GO LOCKER ICS theme background
Hello all,
I recently installed GO LOCKER with an ICS and was wondering if I could use the locker background as the background for my phone as well?
Is there any way to extract the image from somewhere through a file manager?
Thanks in advance!

Use Sense Widgets with Non-Sense Launcher

While fooling around trying out different launchers, i have found a real gem.
GT Launcher Prime

All credit goes to creator of the app. Iam just posting it.

From your sign. it seems that u r stuck on 2.04 firmware
I havent tried it on Sense4+ rom. So cant really comment.
Iam s-off, bootloader unlocked . I used it on sense5 port of letschy with latest m7 firmware 1.29.**.13
btw, nice to see another indian with DNA :highfive:
Yes :'( . Nice to see you too

It's a cool launcher but if you disable the persistent search bar, you can't drag anything to the top of the screen.
That blows.
It's alright, but missing a lot of features that Nova and Apex have so I won't be able to use it. I can't get the Sense widgets sized appropriately to where they are not stretched or having elements overlapping despite messing with the row/column settings. Other things like not being able to change the app drawer icon, and so forth are a bother.

U can resize the widgets.
Icon packs for nova/apex can be used as well.
There r some niggling issues with this launcher, however if you want to use sense widgets and not sense launcher then it your only choice.
Sent from my HTC 'One' DNA
Tried it. Hated it.
Alignment was off on text and icons on adjacent screen, it kept reverting to default screen setup after arranging it with my setup, saw some screen redraw, and weather widget text and graphics were way out of line.
If these were fixed, i'd maybe try it again.

stock wallpaper vs custom wallpaper on GS4

So the stock wallpaper on the Galaxy S4 goes all the way to the notification panel at the top and makes it transparent which i love. I figured i would try and load a custom wallpaper and it would do the same thing, no go! This is kind of disappointing that the stock wallpapers have dimensions that sideloaded wallpapers dont. Has anyone figured out a way to cover that area so it looks as nice as the stock wallpapers.

This is well known, Samsung has come out and told us you only get the transparent notification bar on their wallpapers. Their reasoning, which makes sense, is that they don't know what kind of picture you would be using, and certain backgrounds would make the navigation bar text unreadable.
The only thing I can think of is if you use Nova Launcher, you can enable "transparent notification bar" somewhere in the menu, that might let you do that with all wallpapers.

You don't need the lock screen with Nova. Lock screen is a different APK. You can still change the two by going into your settings -> My device -> Display -> Wallpaper and then pick Lock Screen or Home Screen.
Here is my issue. I've gotten my luck screen to be transparent v by luck. I tested that luck changed wallpaper and lost transparency. Anyone else run into this

You could replace one of the stock wallpapers. I looked and they are packaged as drawables in the wall paper chooser apk (SecWallpaperChooser.apk). I may try to do it...it is essentially like making a theme.
BTW, the stock wallpapers are 1920x1920...I guess so they work in landscape?
