Is it just me, or market is lacking apps that support the large size tile in windows 7.8? Could not find any that fit the rectangular size tile.. anyone?
Agree! I'm especially interested in weather apps with double wide tile!
The SDK 7.8 isn't (public) available yet, so no custom build applications can implement the large size tiles. Until the SDK is released, no applications can be build with large tiles.

But I already have apps that already has double wide tile - how was it made if no one has the SDK?

I'm quite curious too, maybe he used WP8 API's for the large tile size, I don't know...

Hi all. I just got my Lumia 920 today and am loving it so far (except for a yellow tint my hardware buttons have). I have never used any Windows phones before and had a couple of questions. Is there a decent app that will let me put a clock live tile on the homescreen? Also, does anyone know if you can put your own custom notification sounds on it? Thanks for any help anyone could offer.
You should be able to modify sounds in your Settings.
As for the LIVE Tile for a Clock? I would say, give it a Month and I am sure something will come out. Just recently we got the SDK (well, the general public). Also takes forever to get these App's accepted.

Plenty of Clock apps in the store. If they say "With a live tile" then they should have the ability to be pinned to start.
For anyone with the HTC, the HTC app may be pinned and will display a nice large digital time.
I just got my 920 Friday. I too want a live clock that has big numbers. But I tried every clock in the store and so far none have a 'live' tile. I'm assuming that some devs will make them soon now that they finally have the SDK. In fact the HTC clock states that 'due to limitations' it's not live so I expect it will probably be one of the first.
I'm hoping for the same with a calendar. The clock and the calendar are the two things I dislike about my phone. But give it a month or two.

I love this about my HTC 8X. I wish this app was available for other Windows Phones or something similar to it. Just like the other member pointed out, the SDK has only been out for a few weeks. Should start seeing some more apps popping up.

It's unfortunate that there have to be exclusive apps.
I mean, no one is going to buy an HTC phone just because it comes with a big clock live tile.
What's the benefit of exclusivity?
Why not help further the entire Windows Phone community?
I have the HTC 8X and I quite like the integrated clock / weather tile.
I would just just as happy with two, separate, tiles.

I was directed to http://www.wpcentral.com for an HTC 8X forum.
They seem to be a much better place to talk about Windows Phone.
I have also found that you can only add custom ringtones (not notifications).

Well the title says it all. Its a nice feature for app developers. I know there are apps in market ... But it would be nice to have native support in the ROM .. and also when ADB over network is enabled, there should be quick tile available too .. Its neat, clean and goes with the current philosophy of the PA
A quick tile isn't needed, but adb over network should be included. I thought it was an aosp default feature
It isn't in AOSP
need it
We need this feature, it is very useful. :good:

A quick tile might not be needed, but I think that would provide the best access to it. Seeing as you'd mostly just be toggling it on and off, even if it's part of the network dual tile, it would be really convenient.

Ever wish that LG had given the V10/V20 more widgets in the second screen? Well, wish no more! BoredSigns adds many more widgets to your SignBoard (get it? SignBoard --> BoredSigns?), ones you may need and ones you may not.
The best part about BoredSigns? It doesn't need root! That's right; you can get some brand new widgets on your completely Stock V10 or V20. In the future, ADB may be necessary for certain widgets, but right now, you don't need your computer at all.
Current widgets:
— Information
— Weather
— Image
— Navigation Bar
This app is open source! If you aren't willing to pay $0.99 to buy it, feel free to build it for yourself. I only ask that it not be re-distributed without substantial modifications (i.e. more than changing the theme and name).
GitHub: https://github.com/zacharee/BoredSigns
Google+: https://plus.google.com/communities/105544332208886942595
Feel free to open an issue on GitHub to suggest a new widget!
Package name is com.zacharee1.boredsigns
I already have it and its working flawlesly ?

I bought it in the play store (I want to support any development for the 2nd screen).
I have to thank you just for the simple fact that at first, I didn't know how to run it... so I went into the 2nd screen options. I had no idea that I had other widgets that I could run. I never thought to tap the "..." on "Show when main screen on" so I have been stuck with the basic options this whole time. Worth my $1.05 right there.
So, after using it for a few minutes, I noticed the persistent notification for BoredSigns, so I long-pressed it and turned off all notifications. Will this negatively affect the operation of the app? I did notice that when I swiped my notification shade down, or when switching between widgets, the 2nd screen options would come on, so I restarted the phone. It doesn't seem to be doing that anymore, but I did have to toggle weather on and off a few times to get a real location and not 100*F in Philadelphia.
Bonus question... where can I find out more about the "yet unreleased AOSP implementation of the 2nd screen?"
Found the perfect image for the second screen a mod one of the best football team in the world...perfect fit and color !
Happy user here....thank you again for this :highfive:
So someone suggested I do a navigation bar widget. After lots of Java reflection (the actual tool, not thinking about my life with Java), I went with a simple Accessibility Service.
Because of that, these functions will be available:
- Back
- Home
- Recents
- Split Screen
- Power
- QS Pulldown
- Notification Pulldown
If there are any other (simple) buttons you might want, suggest them. I'll add them in if I can.
Here's what it looks like right now:

Title says it all, I hate the bubble toggles that take up the entire screen and require multiple taps. I'm familiar with rooting, and flashing just curious what ROMs are available to help fix this. Thank you in advance!
To the best of my recollection, none as the UI elements are baked into the source code. To go back to the Android 11 UI I think you would need to use an Android 11 ROM, none of which exist for the P6.
Aosp mods does but u lose icon name. It's great to have circle icons again
Use Nova launcher and you can change the look of a lot of the elements. No root needed.

The UI involves more than just the notification shade, which wasn't mentioned. Could have been more specific.

Well, the OP did mention bubble toggles in his opening post. Agreed that being more specific would have helped. Thank you for the reminder about what kind of work it takes to mod the UI, as I haven't done it in years, especially with Substratum making it painless.
why couldn't someone build android 11 for the pixel 6? any reason it not possible?
I guess the OP is talking about the ugly quick settings with large tiles that take up space and requires multiple clicks to adjust internet and other settings.
The product design of software is the worst I have seen.
Nova launcher cannot alter the quick settings.

TBH I don't have a major issue with the Android 12 toggles except for the behavior of the connection toggles, and I already fixed that with Better Internet Tiles so there you go.
This module has a ton of options for the UI. I used it for a while and it seemed fine but I haven't reinstalled it because I didn't really want the added bloat to change one thing (wifi and mobile data toggles).
