This thread was created to have a single place for walkthroughs, program add ons, icons and FAQ's for iPhone Today made by MiToNiOeS (and now by tronikos).
The disclamer (everything has them now)
ALWAYS BACK UP YOUR PHONE; As with anything that you can do to your phone, if you do somthing wrong, you may have to hard reset (very rare); but if you backup your phone first, you will not loose anything. MiToNiOeS, tronikos and j101399j(myself) take no responsibility if you mess up your phone from doing something stupid. This program in no way can mess up or cause problems with your phone. Now that, that was said, back to reality...
Please do not post in this thread unless you have something to add helpful. If you have a question PM me or post it in the iPhone Today forum here:

==============================================
As you can tell, I have not been on for a while and have not had a chance to keep this updated. I no longer use my Tilt (except as a GPS); so I get very little time on it. So if you see something old or outdated, please PM me.
The Walkthrough
Preparation
FIRST and MOST IMPORTANT: Back up your phone
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Updated Feb 27,2010; based off v1.4+
How to install:
1. Start by downloading one of the iPhone_Today.zip files from here
This will install all of the needed files for iPhone Today to work.
If this is an update and you have already installed iPT; backup your icons.xml and settings.xml files. Install the new version and then put your icons and settings files back in.
2. Copy the iPhone Today cab onto your phone.
3. On your phone, navigate to the iPhoneToday.cab file
4. Click the iPhgoneToday.cab file and install it to your phone. DO NOT INSTALL TO THE STORAGE CARD
5. You have 2 versions installed;
a. The exe version is opened like a program (start menu --> programs --> iPhoneToday.exe) This is full screen mode. And it will exit if you press home or end. This works very well with programs that use tabs, like TF3d.
b. Or you can use iPhoneToday as a today plug-in. Go into "Start --> Settings --> Today --> Today items" and disable all other today plugins besids iPhone Today6. Use the icon and settings UI managers to add/edit icons (See below for UI instructions)
Adding Icons and UI instructions see post#3
How to update:
If you have v1.3 or older; uninstall iPT and follow the directions for a fresh install
If this is un update for v1.4+ then do not uninstall iPT; just download and install the new version. It will ask if you want to save your fles, select yes, and you are good to go,
The Menus and Options

Advanced Functions
Advanced:
1. There are two great weather script/applictions that display an icon for the weather.

#2 from arealityfarbetween
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=882110
1 (again). How Create Shortcuts (somewhat advanced)
1. Open NotePad on your PC
2. Type a one line command to what the link points to
a. The number before the # sign is the number of characters after the # sign
b. The text following the # sign is the location of the command
i. If this points to a file, it would look like “\windows\start menu\starfire.lnk”
ii. Since there is a space in the location, use quotations
c. The text after the file location is the paramters for the file; the below example pases the commands to open the SMS account and display it’s inbox location
3. Save the file with .lnk at the end
19#:MSINBOX -service "SMS" -open "Inbox"
2. MY XML EDITOR (more for editing text, link and mscr files)
I was unable to (no matter how much I tired or where I put the files) get PHM Notepad. I did find pocket text editor, which does work. Just copy the files to My Documents, and you can edit it from there. So far it works perfectly and saves the file correctly. File Attached
3. How to create a link to a phone number
I found using vj555 phone tools, you can have an icon call a phone number. You can download the phone tools here:
http://www.vijay555.com/
Just make sure you aim at the dialer.exe and set the phone number as a parameter. For Example
<icon name="Home" image="home.png" exec="\program files\vijay555\vjdialer.exe" parameters="8881234567" type="0" execAlt="" parametersAlt=""/>
When you hit the button, it will automatically dial that number. Remember no dashes in the phone number.
ANOTHER OPTION:
Here is a really cool program that will automatically create the contact links:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=555574
oldsap said it perfectly:
Manually creating shortcut files for sms and call sending to specific contacts requires using a text editor (in PPC and PC) and then manually typing text codes and memorizing the phone number for that particular contact, then repeating the same procedure again and again for each contact.
oldsap created a simple application to automate all of this.
4. Create an icon to a website
To create a link to a website, select the program you want the site to open in, in mycase, I use Skyfire. Under the parameters, put the exact website. Here is my icon to this forum.
<icon name="X-divs" image="\iPhoneToday\icons\XDADevs2.png" exec="\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Skyfire.lnk" parameters="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508429" type="0" execAlt="" parametersAlt=""/>
5. Create an icon to a folder
Set the exe file at your file explorer and set the paramaters to the exact location of the file to open. This is my link to my games folder
<icon name="Icons" image="\iPhoneToday\icons\icons.png" exec="\Windows\Start Menu\File Explorer.lnk" parameters="\windows\start menu\programs\games\" type="0" execAlt="" parametersAlt=""/>
6. Create an icon to a SMS and E-mail
Use the attached e-mail, outlook and SMS shortcut files, readSMS.lnk for text messages, use readHotmail.lnk for hotmail, ReadGmail.lnk for Gmail, and ReadOutlook.lnk ActiveSync e-mails; do not add parameters if you use these links.
Or you can create a shortcut (See #1 above)
SMS
Code:
19#:MSINBOX -service "SMS" -open "Inbox"
Outlook e-mails:
Code:
54#\windows\tmail.exe -service "ActiveSync" -open "Inbox"
Hotmail
Code:
40#:MSINBOX -service "Hotmail" -open "Inbox"
Gmail
Code:
38#:MSINBOX -service "Gmail" -open "Inbox"
7. Link an icon to a Settings
Attached are my "settings" shortcuts. These shortcuts take you directly to settings and functions on your phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3858415&postcount=547
I have also attached an all-settings-link zip file that contains all the settings available. They do not have fancy icons, but it covered everything. Please note, that some of the links go to a settings tab. For example the Backlight_Settings.lnk and Backlight_Battery-Power.lnk shortcuts go to the same backlight settings location, the difference is the Backlight_Battery-Power.lnk goes to the Battery-Power tab. Not all of my tab commands will work on all phones (sorry). So for that example, if you click both links and they both take you to the 1st tab; then tab selection is not supported for that settings location. And you only need one of the link files.
8. How do I rotate the screen
I have attached a switchrotation.zip file at the bottom of this thread. That will allow you to rotate the screen. {Thanks Jeannette for the program}
9. Link an icon to a Call History
To link to call history (files attached):
1. Download the LaunchMSItem.zip
2. UnZip the LaunchMSItem.zip and copy the LaunchMSItem.exe to your phone; (I reccomend your storage card)
3. Edit your "phone" or "call" icon and set the type to "Missed calls"
4. Set the ExecuteAlt to LaunchMSItem.exe's location
5. Set the ParamsAlt to CALLHISTORY_ALL_CALLS
This will, when you have a missed call, goto call history
10. Creating MortScript Files
This can be easy or complicated. I recommend vising the new thread dedcated to Mortscript, or tyhe one for icon programs here:

11. How to create an apple icon for Manillia Today Page (a tab for iPT on TF3D)
drjim said:
Back on page 207, post #2063, bbonzz created Apple slider tab icons that can be used with Manila Today Page to have a unique slider tab for iPhone Today (instead of having to use the boring MTP Today tab or a tab that you weren't using).
On page 208, post #2079 (or around there), bbonzz has a .zip file of two manila files that will allow you to have a pretty basic Apple slider tab icon (similar to the old-style whitish slider tab icons of TF3D 2.0 and earlier.
Well, being the generous fellow that he is, bbonzz created a colored Apple tab icon for me that fits in just right with my TF3D 2.5 icon set that is a part of Herg's 23412 build. See pic below.

Here are the FAQ's:
----------------------------------------------------------------
1. Q: How do I make the bottom bar go away? (aka the soft keys)
A: I have come across a few solutions; if NueNoBar does not work, try question 2. 1st try NueNoBar, there are 2 versions (v1.3 and v2.0); I recommend downloading both, v1.3 works on some and v2.0 works on others.
I haver attached NueNoBar v1.3 & v2.0 to this post at the bottom
2. Q: NueNoBar does not work at all, no matter what I try!!
A: Here are 2 more options:
------2a. Try dciNoBar; NueNoBar did not work on my 2ed phone, so I tried this and it works perfectly. You can find one verison of it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=356978
I haver attached dciNoBar to this post at the bottom
------2b. Also try a program called Second Today (thank you dustinmcd for this one and how to use it) http://www.chi-tai.info/cs_wm_tools_im_cs.htm#SecondToday; It has an option to hide the bottom bar and also gives the flexibility to use another plugin (such as Titanium) easily. Just enable no today plugins, set up iphonetoday as their "Second Today" and run it full time with minimal memory use.
3. Q. How do I have my calender show the days in my language?
A. Attached at the bottom of this post is a file called Settings XML files.zip this file contains the settings.xml files for all 4 phone resolutions and in English, Espanol (Spanish), Deutsch (German) and Français (French). Just replace your current settings.xml file in your "\iPhoneToday" folder on your phone with that one. Then restart iPhoneToday; now the days will be in your language.
I only speek English, so if I messed up; please PM me.
OR
You need to edit the settings file (located in: /iPhoneToday/settings.xml). Copy your settings.xml file to your PC. Open the file with notepad (ONLY USE NOTEPAD). Change the text inbetween the bracketed days:
ie:
English
Code:
<Sunday>Sun</Sunday>
Code:
[I]<Monday>Mon</Mon>[/I]
or Espanol
Code:
<Sunday>Dom</Sunday>
Code:
[I]<Monday>Lun</Mon>[/I]
or my favorite
Code:
[I]<Sunday>Rest2</Sunday>[/I]
[I]<Monday>Hell1</Monday>[/I]
[I]<Tuesday>Hell2</Tuesday>[/I]
[I]<Wednesday>Hump</Wednesday>[/I]
[I]<Thursday>Better</Thursday>[/I]
[I]<Friday>Party</Friday>[/I]
[I]<Saturday>Rest1</Saturday>[/I]
Save the file, and copy back to your phone. And reset iPT (disable it and re-enable it)
4. How do I add a new page?
A:
. 1. Go to your last page
. 2. Press and hold in any blank area to get the pop menu to add a new icon.
. 3. On the icon add/edit page, in the upper left corner is the screen # selection, it should already have a number. (I have 5 pages, and since the 1st page is page #0; it has the number a 4 in it).
. 3a. If you want to add the icon to the bottom bar, change the screen number to -1;
. 3b. If you want a new page, change the number up by one. For example, I have 5 pages, and I want a 6th page. So I changed the number from 4 to 5 (Remember the 1st page is #0, second page is #1, third page is #2; and so on...)
. Save the icon and now you will have a new page. Also, if you delete all of the icons from a page (like if you are moving them); once the page is blank, it will be deleted. So if you do not want the page to go away, there must be an icon on it.
5. Q: I was editing my icons and everything disappered
A: Chances are your icon's executable path has a special character in it [email protected]#$%^&*()_+=-/.,<>?; or one of your parameters has a " in it. The extra " in your parameters will crash iPhone Today
6. Q: I get a small keyboard at the bottom of the screen
A: Your screen height is a little too big. For some reason NueNoBar has a bug and causes this issue. Start by shrinking your screen height by 1. Open your text messages and close them. If the screen is still too high, the keyboard will still be there. Keep shrinking the screen height till it goes away. Unfortunatuly this will leave 2-3 lines of background/empty spcae on the bottom.
7. Q: How do I create icons to the settings on my phone
A: See the advanced walkthrough, link above; Link an icon to a Settings
8. Q: How do I link to my call history
A: See the advanced walkthrough, link above; Link an icon to a Call History
9. Q: How do I Link to my sms and e-mail
A: See the advanced walkthrough, link above; Create an icon to a SMS and E-mail
10. Q: My bottom icons are messedup/gone after switching back to portrait after landscape mode
A: Disable the landscape option in iPhoneToday settings. This is a problem on some phones and there is no real fix yet
11. Q: I have a scroll bar on the side
A: Your screen height is too large, or you have another today plugin turned on (under or over iPhone Today), or your icons are too big and over laping. You need to lower your screen height.
12. Q: Can we have a clock?
A:For those having problems to see the digital clock:
1 add a new icon, a blank one or one with only a colored background
2 execute nothing or, if you have, a shortcut to the winmobile clock
3 change the Type from 'normal' to 'clock'
4 Enjoy your time Thanks CU
13. What is the "dll" version?
This no longer applies
14. I have iPhone Today installed; how do I update
A: If you are going to install a new vrsion.
1. 1st back up your icons, icons.xml file to your storeage card.
2. Uninstall your current iPhoneToday
3. Restart your phone
4. Install
5. copy your backed up files back to the main iPhoneToday folder to be safe
Please note that for now you cannot backup your settings
You have updated your phone
15. During installation it says that the software in compatible with the operation system. I accept and continue the installation. When installation is completed I cant see the today plugin in the list.
A. {Thanks Jeannette for the answer and cab} you have to install the "RemoveSecurity.CAB " attached at the bottom of this post to remove the security warning. Also you have to install iPhoneToday to the device. If you install to 'My Storage' it doesn't show as a today item
16. How do I create icons that turn Bluetooth or Wifi on/off?
A: Download and install Raiisak`s Bluetooth Button and Raiisak`s WLAN Button from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398050
AKToggleWifi is also a great program for WiFi Toggle.
You can find AKToggleWifi here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442727
And you always have Sir. John's Toggle scripts:

Question: Is it possible to set parameters for an email icon that will open whatever email account has mail or does it need to be one account per icon?

I am sure there is a MortScript that can do that (Check each account. At the moment no; if I figure it out, I'll let you know

How many pages do you have, was the 3rd page the last page, or was it in the middle.
If it was the last page:
Press and hold to create a new icon, on the icon details page, in the upper left corner, you will see a "screen" option; change it to "2" (0 is page 1, 1 is page 2 and so on). Give the icon a name and save it. This will add a 3rd page. Now create as needed.
If you have more then 3 pages
You will need to move all but one icon off that page (to create a new end page see above steps). Then add a new icon to page 3 (if there are no icons, the page will delete). Move the last icon to the new last page. Since you have that new icon on page 3, it will not delete that page. Then you are ready to go.
Is it possible to create an icon that opens a new screen in IphoneToday? I created shortcuts to several phonenumbers. I'd like to group them. I mean when I hit the icon a new screen opens with the grouped shortcuts to the phonenumbers.

You would have to create a new icons.xml file that has just those icons and use MortScript to swap the files and refresh iPT. See this post:

Can you go over adding pages..
cyberhern said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sure,
1. Go to your last page
2. Press and hold in any blank area to get the pop menu to add a new icon.
3. On the icon add/edit page, in the upper left corner is the screen # selection, it should already have a number. (I have 5 pages, and since the 1st page is page #0; it has the number a 4 in it).
3a. If you want to add the icon to the bottom bar, change the screen number to -1;
3b. If you want a new page, change the number up by one. For example, I have 5 pages, and I want a 6th page. So I changed the number from 4 to 5 (Remember the 1st page is #0, second page is #1, third page is #2; and so on...)
Save the icon and now you will have a new page. Also, if you delete all of the icons from a page (like if you are moving them); once the page is blank, it will be deleted. So if you do not want the page to go away, there must be an icon on it.

After using iPT some buttons are useless now, like the Windows Hardbutton and the start menu (on my TP2. So, it would be nice to add some info to the guide to change the mapping og this buttons. You now how to map f.e. the Windows Hardbuttion to programs? And how to make a link to the settings, i mean just to all 3 tabs, not to specific phone settigs?

iPT does not disable or mess with the hard buttons when ran as a today plug-in. If you are using the exe version (start --> programs--> iPhoneToday.exe); then you will loose your hard soft keys bcause you are running it as a program, not a plug-in; same as any full screen program. If you run iPT that way, you will need to create icons to those settings/items. Since every phgone is different, I can't really create a guide how to add them

UPDATED TUTORIAL
[/CENTER]
The general idea of "Hubs" is to create a dedicated screen for each piece of media/productivity while providing a visual eye candy. "Hubs" is easy to emulate, and even easier to create your own style. Despite the lengthy tutorial, its actually easier than it seems. The fun part comes with setting up you layout!
What you'll need:
Main
Adw Launcer EX
Launcher Pro Plus
Multi Live Wallpaper
Minimalistic Text
Simple Text
Optional
Pulse (for widgets)
Cowon Clock/ BobClock Widget
Mizuu Movies
Launcher Pro Plus (Widgets)

Part II
FINAL
WALKTHROUGHADW Launcher Users[/U][/B]
-To remove top bar-Press and hold and empty area on your home screen then click on "Launcher Actions" > "Hide/Show Action Bars"
-Enable Widget Overlapping-"Menu"> "ADW Settings"> "UI Settings" > "Screen Preference"> Check "Overlap Widgets" in the Advanced Settings Tab
-Increase Retail Space on your screen-"Menu"> "ADW Settings"> "UI Settings" > "Screen Preference"> Increase the desktop "Rows" and "Columns" in the "Desktop Layout" Tab.
Launcher Pro Plus Users- while not optimized for 3.2, it still runs perfect.
-Increase Retail Space on your screen-"Menu"> "Preference" > "Homescreen Settings" > Increase the "Number of columns/rows" in the Homescreen Grid.
-Remove Icons From Right Dock- Hold your finger on the icon you wish to remove> "change shortcut"> "Blank"
*You may add screen transitions for each launcher if you wish, however my advise is to leave it at default as you can set transition for Multi Live wallpaper. Doing both launcher and MLW will make your screen look "too busy" IMO.
To set the "Bars" (Titles for "Home", "Music", "Movies" etc.)
Minimalistic Text
-To set title- Press and hold a free space on the screen > "widgets" > "Minimalistic Text" (size may vary per style however I use either 4x2 or 6x1 as long as its horizontal > ensure that "background color" is checked > "Predefined Layout" > "Custom" > "Custom Layout" > Click on the plus sign > "Misc" > "Static Text".
-Black Bar Tutorial click here
Wallpapers
-Set up - Load up your wallpapers on your sd card/internal memory and placing them into seperate folders and name them based on the images (ex. Music, Movies, Games etc)
- Long press an empty screen on your homescreen > "Wallpapers" > "Live Wallpapers"> "MultiPicture Live Wallpaper"> "Settings"
- For each "Screen _ Settings" Select the picture source as "Picture Folder" and navigate it to point to your corresponding homescreen.
- Additionally you make select the screen transition here that reflects your particular taste. You may also set a default wallpaper for your lockscreen.
Despite the dozen of widget on the homescreen and live wallpaper, battery use is minimal.I have provided wallpapers below to help you get started.
NAVIGATING BETWEEN HUBS
There are two methods in which you can navigate to each individual homescreen.
Method one: Prior/Alternate way for navigation text was achieved using this methodby trekkie0927. Using invisible icons in tandem with minimalistic text can make it easier to flip to each hubs. Please rate/comment his video.
Method two: I found a great alternative to Minimalistic Text in terms of using the text buttons to jump from one screen to another called Simple Text. Since it's only an icon and not a widget, it consumes no memory and provides a great minimal look.
User AcIdC0R3 has posted a great tutorial. (Please thank him!)
Make sure you have ADWLauncher EX
Go to the market and install Simple Text
Long press on the screen and select 'Custom Shortcut'
'Pick your activity', select 'Launcher Actions'
Choose which screen you want, 1 - 5 or 1 - 7 if your using seven screens
Click on the picture of the 2 screens side by side
Select 'ADWTheme IconPacks' and select 'Simple Text'
Select the grey box named 'Simple'
replace the word 'Simple' with whatever of your choosing like 'Video' for your video hub or 'Social' for your social media hub and so forth
Adjust your text size, Y and X coordinates, your shadow settings etc.
Click the little blue 'A' in the top right side of the screen and select your font (more on fonts further down)
You also have the option to select the color wheel next to the 'A' and adjust your text color
Select the menu icon on the task bar at the bottom and select 'Save Style' if you want to keep what you created for later use as well.
Click 'Save Icon' which will create your icon for you
Back at the black edit screen remove the text from the text field and click OK
You should now have a custom text icon that will activate whichever screen you chose for it. You can click any app icon on your screen and follow the same procedure for your apps so all your apps also have text icons.
[FONTS] In a file manager go to /sdcard/Simple Text/ and create a folder named 'fonts' (that is plural with an 's' at the end). Next go to somewhere like dafont.com and download you some kewl fonts and place them within that 'fonts' directory you just created. Now when you go into Simple Text to do your editing you will have more fonts to choose from.
That's all there is to it.
You can also work with layers within the creation of your Simple Text. Notice below where I created a new layer, rotated my new text layer and intersected where both words have the letter 'E'.
However you may notice that simple text does have it's limitations:
Icons can only be 1x1
Works best on adw
No way to resize; it is only an icon after all.
Miscellaneous
ISSUE: You may experience widget being placed "behind" the black bars. If so try this method provided by user SwiftLegend
1. Put the widgets/icons you want on TOP of the blackbar FIRST. You need these before anything.
2. Select a Minimalistic Text Widget, I usually use 1x1. Clear out the text options (Predefined layout > Custom, delete all of the things there)
3. Once you're back at your homescreen and see the MT Widget, just long press and re size it to your liking.
You HAVE to make sure that whatever you want on TOP of the blackbar is put on the screen FIRST. Anything put on after will go underneath.
ISSUE 2: Users have reported that Minimalistic Widget refuses to post/ show up on the homescreen.
1. Turn your tablet into portrait mode.
2. Add the widget whilst staying in portrait mode as you apply you designs.
3. Rotate back to landscape.
ISSUE 3: You can no longer take full advantage of the screen real estate using adw ex (particularly the corners)
1. Recent update kills the use of every inch of the screen. In his attempt to emulate ICS, anderwebs made the edges of the screen inaccessible.
2. Revert back to an older version (1.3.3)

One quick question...which launcher are you using? Is it just the default ADW without a dockbar?
adw ex. with no transitions as it lags a bit and looks less impressive (imo) on a larger screen.
What's the main widget on your Home screen?
Great work man. Seconding the question about your home screen widget. (The one with the weather and the time etc)
combination of minimalistic text, digital clock widget (by maize) and beautiful widget. Photo is "photo widget"
Cool, can you tell us how you got it to all look like one widget? My beautiful widgets and photo widget don't have the same background, so they don't look like they're all under the same "bar".
Also what are the widgets on your games screen? One looks like it's for xbox live and the featured widget at the bottom looks interesting.
This is an awesome idea. I set mine up with launcher pro and the text widget. I used the wipe effect for the wallpapers and I am quite happy with it.
Sent from my NookColor
What exactly is your number of columns and rows set to in the adw settings?
im using 10x10.
again those bars are minimalistic text with background and overlapped over icon/widgets
Ahh, ok regular adw launcher doesn't do overlap.
Can you tell us what those widgets on your games pages are?
Yes. Sorry I should've been more specific. I used adw launcher EX. Games sections is minimalistic text and my Xbox gamercard is spark 360
Anyone else having problems getting the images to change when you scroll to differnt screens? No matter what directory i set it to I just get a message "Picture not avail. Need to setup or reload". I have added five screens in the settings but it always stays on screen 3 when I scroll through the five that I have. Any specific setting you all are using?
You can run into issues with different launchers and settings like "Enable wallpaper scroll". All I can tell you is that adw.launcher seems to be the most compatible of the free launchers that I've tested out with Multipicture.
If you're on adw, try toggling the wallpaper scroll setting ad restarting your launcher.

Still working on my layout, here's what I have for now:
Hello guys,
Looking at the number of people asking for a Metro UI look Guide i have decided to make this,This is my First ever guide,So if i go wrong somewhere go easy on me
Necessary Softwares Required
1) ADW Launcher
2)Desktop Visualizer
3)Multipicture Live Wallpaper
4)Minimalistic Text
Step 1: ADW Launher
* Install ADW launcher
* Go to ADW settings -> UI Presets -> main dock-> disable main dock
* Screen Preference-> Desktop Columns =9
Rows=5 ( you can give rows and columns number like you please,this just adjusts the widgets size )
*Under Advanced settings in screen preference - Enable Overlap Widgets
* You might Notice an Annoying blue line on top of the screen (to Remove it)
-long press on the screen and Select Launcher Actions
-Add Show/Hide Status Bar.then add it to screen click it.blue line disappears and Delete the show/hide status bar you have added.
*Disable Wallpaper Scrolling.
Okay now you are done ADW launcher for now! Good job! Now lets procees to the next step .
Step 2: Multilivewallpaper
*Long press on main screen -> wallpaper->live wallpaper -> you can select individual wallpapers for each screen(this is left to you)
* So after selecting wallpapers,you can change the transtition effect and stuff to your taste!
Step 3: Desktop VisualizeR
*Download the Icons pack i have attached and extract it in you tab.
*On Main Screen ->Long Press->Widgets->Desktop visualizer-> Choose 2x1 or 2x2 which ever you like (1x1 is also fine) .
*You will notice a widget will be added on your screen -> click it-> now it asks you to choose an icon -> select an icon from the icon pack you have extracted(consider you are making " books" widget.so select books image icon)
*Next it will ask for an Action to be executed -> select launch an app-> Ebook app(moon reader or whatever you use)
*Clear the Text Label Which will be below .
* Press ok and you are done
***REPEAT Step 3 every time you want to add an widget .
Step 4: Minimalistic Text(if you get confused ,i would recommend you to see some youtube videos on how to configue minimalistic text)
* long press on the screen ->minimalistic text widget->2*1 Size
*Untick show background
*Horizontal block ->left
*vertical Block->Center
*predefined layout->custom
now click custom layout which would be enabled down
*now you will see some boxes .long press them and drag and drop on the bin (its like removing an icon from the homescreen)
*After Removing everything ->select the green plus sign to add button->misc->static text(drag and drop on top i,e left to the green plus button)
*click on static text->give text "start"
Style->accented
*done press minus->press ok
*Now go to Accented it will be few rows below custom layout
*you can select the text style which u want.(i myself used size 50 ,thats all i did not make any more changes)
*Check "disable Action on tap" .Check this one
*press ok and your done
Step 4:
* you will be able to see the minimalistic widget you created ,drag and keep at one side.
*long press->launcher action->open app drawer
*now long press the open app drawer icon you created. Delete the text you see now click on the icon->select picture->select the transparent picture i provided.
*now place this "invisible icon on top left corner*
Now what our intention is we want to overlap the start text we created from minimalistic text and invisible icon ,so that when we click start ,app drawer should open. now bring in the start widget on same row ,notice u will not be able to place widget on top of each other so just place it by its side,then long press on start widget and edit then resize the widget so that it overlaps on the invisible app drawer widget.
Step 5: HD widgets
I used this app for the Clock and Weather widgets
End Product should look like the Screenshot i have Attached.
Thank you.

Thank you for your comment.most of the apps which i have used are basic ones which come Pre-loaded in any ROM and HD widgets is a paid app i cannot put that one here.if u want something else feel free to ask.
Alrighty! I don't understand why Google wants me to have this omnipresent search bar on every home screen if there obviously is Google Now / Google Search embedded into the launcher if you go to the left page. So after some searching I found a way to hide it. But it will show again if you go to the left screen; no functionality is lost. Of course digging through the code I found some more things which are customizable

How to request a feature
theknut said:
Since the feature requests are poping up like crazy and users are not making an effort to explain the features and say thank you after I implemented it, I decided to only accept feature requests if you follow the instructions below. But that doesn't imply that I will implement it. I want to see some effort because I will most certainly have it and remember it's all done in my free time. It's not that I do this for living
So if you post a feature request please include
say "Thanks" and be grateful for what you already got
think about your feature and whether it is useful for others, too
properly explain what you really want
I never used Nova and such so I don't understand the request if you just name the setting you want.
I think this is only fair since I spent hours making this module and users don't even take a minute to properly explain what they want and even worse are not grateful for what they already got. For free.
Thanks to all who donated already.

Requirements
Xposed Framework
Google Now Launcher
new diaper
Instructions
download the module and install it
activate it in Xposed Installer → Modules
reboot your device
open Xposed GEL Settings
make all the changes you want
hit the restart button within the app to restart your launcher
Celebrate!
Known issues
In some cases the Google Doodle will not be loaded
How to resolve: pull down in GNow
State: This seems to be a problem of the launcher. This error also occurs if the module isn't activated at all.
If the grid size or hotseat count is changed icons/widgets may disappear (especially if you decrease sizes)
Severity: Keep it in mind
Resized icons or grid settings might lead to different sizes
State: working on it for the next update
Some settings will lead to icons being cut on the left and the right side even though enough space is available
State: working on it for the next update
If you've made changes to the launcher using apps like AppSettings (which is awesome by the way), you might encounter problems
Please report bugs if you find them! A good bug report includes repro steps and logcat and Xposed log file. You can paste them to www.pastebin.com. Screenshots and screen recordings are very important, too. If you provide all of this when reporting a bug it will make it a lot easier for me to help you.
If you report any bug mentioned above and/or ask questions which could have been answered if you've read the OP, please allow me to ignore your post as you did mine.
Thanks

Your work is appreciated. Downloading now
Installing now! I was waiting for this app. A nice feature could be the possibility of rename app in GEL
Superb start been waiting for a dedicated gel module.
How far can this be taken? Is functionality from custom launchers like Holo launcher possible? Such as gestures, animations, changing icons etc.
I do hope things like this aren't beyond the realms of possibility.
Looking forward to future developments.

not to be a grammar nazi, but what you mean here is the dock, right?
Would there be a way to disable wallpaper scrolling?
Looking forward to seeing this progress! I like GNL, but there are a few things keeping me on Nova launcher - swiping up on homescreen icons, category tabs in the app drawer (or at least folders), and the ability to remove labels and apply icon packs. Everything else I could take or leave.
Regardless of whether these features make it to your app, thanks for the effort and keep up the good work.
Is possible add support hotwork for all languages?

The search bar overlies over the other icons?! :-/
Edit: after enabling gnow it works, but i don't want gnow
Awesomeness!!!
Do you think it is possible to add just one more feature - swipe down to pull notification bar??
That would probably be all that one would need from GEL
Thanks for your work!
Any way to get this working on a Droid Maxx running Kitkat without GEL?
I like using the droid command center widget but when I loaded GEL it wouldn't let me add it to the homescreen. I got a message saying the widget doesn't work with 3rd party launchers.
FYI, the columns and rows feature is reversed...adding columns actually adds rows, and vise versa. Other than that, great module!

I use Google Keep a lot to jot down thoughts that come to my mind, thoughts that may come in handy in future. This leads to many many notes scattered all over the app.
To delete a note, I had to -
Long tap the note
Tap on the 3-dot overflow menu
Tap on 'Delete
It was a little bit annoying to have an extra tap to open the 3-dot overflow menu just so that I could reach the 'Delete' button. So I moved the button to the action bar.
Now, to delete a note -
Long tap the note
Tap on 'Delete'
In v1.1, I implemented a customizable icon listing in the action bar of the official Google Keep app. The users can select which icons they want to show in their Google Keep app action bar. Users can choose any combination, such as select only one among the menu icons listed below, choose any two, choose all three or choose none. Users can choose among the following icons -
Archive
Delete
Share
In v1.2, I implemented a customizable icon listing in the action bar when the note was being edited in the official Google Keep app. Just like v1.1, users can select any combination among the menu items listed below -
Archive
Show/Hide Checkboxes
After 2 years, with v2.0 comes a completely re-written implementation of the Xposed module. The code is more flexible and robust. Keep Trash now uses the new material design and new material drawables that are consistent with the official Google Keep app. Now, visibility of 6 menu items can be customized - Delete, Archive, Share, Reminder, Label and Color Picker. For more details, check the changelog below.
You can select the icons you want to show in your Google Keep app action bar and customize your Google Keep experience.

Initial Release
Yay I was waiting for google for sooo long to make this an option like on Gmail. Thank you very much. Also could you male the swipe action also delete the note instead of archiving? I presume it's not hard, only changing a method call
could you move the share button to the action bar too?

Google Keep is closed source. The code is obfuscated, so pin pointing the method is hard. But I'll still look into it.

This is feasible. It will make the action bar cluttered if I move "all" the menu options to the action bar. I'll keep this option customizable in the GUI, giving user the ability to choose which menu icons they want in their action bar, and which ones should be moved to the 3-dot overflow menu.
Thank you for the suggestion.
****ing awesome! This has been my long standing gripe with Keep. Thanks dev! :good: Now, if someone would find a way to remove the limits on the amount of text one is allowed to write in a single note, Keep would be perfect for me!
Oh yeah! At last! Thank you!
These are the kinds of modules which make Xposed really handy. Thanks a lot for this
So I wasn't the only one who was frustrated by Google's decision to keep 'Delete' button 2 taps away from the user. Good to know!
Maybe masterminds at Google just don't want the users to delete their data from their servers (if they even do that) , but instead just want you to archive it (for them). After all, the one who controls "user's data", controls the present and the future! Hehe.
Anyways, I am glad this module is useful for others too.
@xenon92 I am so happy to see your app being highlighted on xda portal.. Your development for galaxy grand is unforgettable.. And yet another brilliant app which is simply mind blowing.. Keep up the good work..

Please post the Xposed log and logcat with v1.1.
i got a really cool idea right now, how about a "keep trash" module for Google chrome? it would be really cool to have New tab, share, print and desktop mode buttons in the action bar of chrome

Please take a logcat and post here.
Follow the following steps:
- Reboot phone
- Start taking logcat
- Open Keep Trash GUI (v1.1)
- Open Keep
- Stop logcat
Post it here.
This is the source code from XposedBridge: THIS & THIS & THIS
So go to
Code:
/data/data/de.robv.___/conf/
and check if there exists a file named disable_resources there. If it is there, do your research as to why it is there. If you feel comfortable enough after your research, remove the file and test again.
Any plans to modify the acton bar that is shown when a note is open?
With my usage (widget on home screen, notes are accessed from the widget), this would be very useful! [emoji106]

Actually yes. I am thinking about moving 'Show Checkboxes' in the note editor from overflow menu to action bar. I use it there a lot.
I would prefer the Share button there. It seems more natural for me to write something and then send it to Google Drive by clicking on the icon in the action bar than having to go to the Browser screen and then save it.
Great module by the way, thanks.
Your module really rocks! Keep up in good work
But here are a little request.. Don't you think that icons on action bar are too big? MDPI device here

Google Keep can be accessed from a browser too - https://keep.google.com/
If you mean 'Share' icon to be in action bar while a note is being edited.. Maybe in future..

Yes they seem a little bigger for an MDPI device. I own a HDPI device, and they seem fine on my device at least (as you can see from the screenshots). I'll reduce the size for MDPI in future release.
