Android ~4.0.4 Xperia devices such as the P and the Acro S have some pretty neat animations in the UI.
I'll just describe some of them here, for lack of a demo:
• The way the screen collapses into the middle when going to sleep; creating a kind of a blinds effect
• The way newly-opened apps kinda zoom out a bit before filling the whole screen
• The way dialogue boxes appear: zoom in a bit too much before going back to normal; creating a small bounce effect
Is it possible to recreate these animations, especially the screen off animations, on a custom ROM? There's already an Xposed module for screen off animations but it doesn't include the blinds effect I'm looking for.
If it's possible, how can a n00b (like me) implement it? Thanks!

I like the ripple effect on the lockscreen, however I am little bored with it. Just want to know that is it possible to modify it? I want ripples to have more density or depth, just like we have on "honeycomb" lockscreen. Also, can we add more effects similar to ripples?

It's not go launcher, it's called next launcher. I've tried it yesterday, it's really nice and smooth, but I have a problem with every launcher other than stock, I miss sony's widgets, so every time I return to stock!
From the middle of nowhere to the center of everywhere...through my Arc S!

I was wondering if themer can allow us to put small pieces of images, or shapes into a screen, to make screens more eye-catching.
Why i´m asking this?
Some themes (like SKY theme) are just GREAT on images, but they uses dividers, ribbons, trays, or boxes, all drawed together with the wallpaper. Some guys, like me can be free to change just the picture, but keep the other graphic elements, shapes and lines that make the theme so interesting.
Other lack of funcionality is that sometimes I try to add a new page to a theme, and we have problems to make it 'similar' to the other ones existent on the theme, due to wallpaper differences and other things... One-click theming is awesome, but some guys cant stand it and go ahead with customizations :cyclops:
Do you themer guys think this might be a good idea or this can be a problem for memory comsumption point.

Have fun, once Zooper Widget also becomes integrated you'll be able to create shapes there too :laugh:
hi i am working with a developer on a custom navigationbar app, he doesn't know how to make blurring of a wallpaper working i want the back of the navigationbar to be covered with a blurry section of a wallpaper top create the illusion of transparency, heres an example of the result i want but without affecting the outside of the navigationbar, i also want this to work inside apps too, Another thing we've yet to figure out is any way to detect when the navigationbar turns White to force Icons to go gray, right now it goes White causing the White Icons to vanish because they are White too, theres also a bug we've come across that makes automatic navigationbar color after app stop working at random times, this bug only occurs on Android pie it wasn't in Android oreo
I received Emui 10, it's really great, good looking and so, but, there are still major and minor features that could make Emui awesome.
I made a little list of what I would really love to see :
● Smart reply
● Change accent color
● Navigate in music notification from lockscreen
● Switch apps by swiping left or right from the bottom of the screen
● Quicksetting tile for : Dark mode, reverse wireless charging, battery saver
● Swipe down to access notification panel ( maybe implement swiping down from the edges )
● Schedule Dark mode ( + auto switching wallpapers for light and Dark )
● Force Dark mode in every apps
● Personalisation for AOD and Fingerprint look and animation
● Change the way of activating google assistant from the edges because it's conflicting with the one handed mode
● Get the little pop up for the auto rotate activation when it's off
I have missed a lot I think, reply with yours ?
I am sorry to break it to you, but they won't bother adding majority of the features you mentioned above.
However I would too love to see these features.
I have only one feature request:
-Better 3rd party launcher support.

Yeah I know, but some of them are just Android 10 features that are missing , and that's what I really want, the others are just dream fonctionnalities that would make Emui really great
I will add to your list the Full Rotation meaning landscape even from the home screen (I have had a Sony XZ1 before and it was available from stock).
A big miss for me
I think because its beta thats why
Just received First patch of the beta for Emui 10, they added a dark mode Quick settings , that's one tick in the list haha
I missed the Google like navigation gestures.
Some of the features were already announced and they are missing. Best example colorfull AOD
I would like to see the option of turning off the AOD notification for the fingerprint entirely, as you can with the S10 line. I don't like the way it flashes every time you move your phone and I basically know where my finger needs to go anyway.
Camera zoom (really?) via volume keys, more customizable settings like 16:9 resolution
Yes there is no clock style options in AOD..
