Changelog
iPhoneToday v1.5.2 (Apr 15, 2010)
Improved scrolling performance. It should be really fast when there is no wallpaper or there is a gradient or image background for the mainscreen pages. Under these conditions you could even enable alpha blend on background without any performance loss.
Improved animation performance.
Added new animation effects. The available ones are: "None", "Expand rectangle from center", "Zoom out from center", "Zoom in to center", "Expand rectangle from clicked area", "Zoom out from clicked area", and "Zoom in to clicked area".
Added "animation" tab in options where you can select the animation effect, the animation duration, and whether to launch the application before the animation.
The "out of screen" tab got more options. You can now configure to stop scrolling when there are no more icons in a given direction.
Added an option to tile the background images.
Included a couple of tileable textures.
Included an iPhone background for the BottomBar.
Included some nicer looking bubbles.
When adding a new icon, it is now by default inserted at the end of the list not at the beginning.
Whenever edit boxes receive the keyboard focus all the text in them is selected and the keyboard is shown.
For PNDs added a "KB" button next to the "OK" and "X" buttons.
icons.xml and settings.xml are now always saved with DOS new lines.
Center button of D-pad jumps to first page.
Added --goto:right and --goto:left (similar to the --goto:next and --gotorevious).
Added a "Cradle State" icon.
Fixed non updating "Calendar & Appointments", "Unplayed Voice Mails" and "Irda State" icons.
Fixed exec alt of "Missed Calls & Signal Strength & Operator Name" icon.
Fixed an issue when text's color is black.
Other minor fixes and improvements...
iPhoneToday v1.5.1 (Apr 3, 2010)
Using registry notifications instead of polling for updating notifications (bubbles, date, time, etc.). Notifications (and reloadIcon) should now appear immediately. Battery foot print should also be smaller.
Icon, text, circles, offset sizes, etc. are scaled automatically if the application is launched in a different resolution than the one in settings.xml (LastConfiguredAt).
Bubbles are alpha blended.
Position, size, text, etc. of bubbles are configurable.
Added background image support for static bars (bottom bar and top bar). Gradient background can now be used even when a wallpaper is set. The background (gradient or image) of static bars can be alpha blended to the wallpaper.
ShrinkToFit option of static bars now shrinks the text height in addition to the icon width.
Added font settings dialog.
Renamed "GPRS State" icon to "Cell Network State".
Added "Missed Calls & Signal Strength & Operator Name" icon.
Added "Unplayed Voice Mails" icon.
Added "Irda State" icon.
Added "Phone Profile" icon.
No sound or vibration on launch if current profile is silent.
When battery is charging a dot is shown before the battery percentage to indicate charging.
If operator name is empty show NA for signal.
Changed the field "type" in the icon settings dialog from dropdown to droplist.
Fonts in the fonts subdirectory are automatically added/removed.
Load strExec and strParameters (in addition to nScreen, nIcon, strName, and strImage) from HKLM\Software\iPhoneToday\Icon...\ when HKLM\Software\iPhoneToday\reloadIcon is set.
Added a separate text quality option for text inside icons.
Added new pressed icons.
Added minimize OnLaunchIcon option (you have to manually edit settings.xml).
Added UpdateWhenInactive option (you have to manually edit settings.xml) to always update notifications even when window is inactive. The default value is 0 to save battery.
iPhoneToday v1.5.0 (Mar 21, 2010)
Fixed battery drainage issue.
Improved quality of icons by using the averaging interpolation method for resizing them.
Added an alternative method for alpha blending to the background that should be faster but requires more memory.
Added an option to "use mask for transparency" that might help the scrolling performance on some devices.
Added text quality option (Default, Draft, Nonantialiased, Antialiased, Cleartype, Cleartype comp), but it is available only when alpha blend on background is disabled.
Added facename (font family) option for the text labels under the icons, the header text, and the special icons text. (you have to manually configure the XML, no dialog yet).
Added shadow and roundrect options for the header text.
Added --winkey command to display the start menu.
Added an option to show battery percentage while charging (enabled by default).
Changed default value of vibration for non phone devices to 0.
Fixed crash when copying icons from topbar.
Fixed bug with pressed icon not displaying correctly when alpha blend is enabled.
If reloadIcon is 2 icons.xml are saved after loading them from registry.
Installer now displays a warning that today plugin will not be available if you choose to install to storage card.
Some minor fixes and improvements.
iPhoneToday v1.4.9 (Mar 15, 2010)
Fixed degraded quality of images of previous release (image resizing is done by the Windows Imaging API again).
Fixed a bug with background resizing.
Added RoundRect option (for now only in the XML, no dialog yet) to display a black rounded rectangular behind the text (like Android).
iPhoneToday v1.4.8 (Mar 14, 2010)
Using LPNG library (an extremely light-weight library - it just adds 6KB) if imaging API fails (mostly helpful for PNDs where imaging API is often missing). This allows now all devices to load and display transparent PNG icons.
Huge memory savings compared to v1.3 when AlphaBlend is disabled (32bit icons are now converted to whatever the screen supports, usually 16bit).
Fixed text labels being 1-2 pixels left of the center of the icons.
Fixed background color of options dialog to be the windows default color for menu backgrounds.
Added --keyboard command to show/hide the keyboard.
Only for PNDs: added a help button (question mark) on the title bar of the options and icon settings dialogs (next to the OK button) that toggles the appearance of the keyboard.
The 3-letter abbreviation of the day of the week is now by default displayed in the language of the user locale.
Converted the included pressed icons from gray scale to true color since LPNG only supports loading true color PNG images.
Resized the bubble icons.
Added a warning that scrolling will be slow when AlphaBlend is enabled on devices that do not natively support it.
iPhoneToday v1.4.7 (Mar 09, 2010)

Uhmm, why did you open a thread about this again?

I believe because he's not the author of the earlier versions (he's picked up the project where the original author abandoned it) and wants to be able to maintain his own thread and starting post. If he had just replied in the original thread, the thread owner might not update the starting post links and only those who read the whole thread (which is 287 pages long) would find the new version. I think that a new thread for a new author and new "life" for the project makes sense.
tronikos,
It looks really good. Some things...
1. Tapping the screen briefly flashes an all-white screen (the same that shows when loading and during the "animation" when pressing an icon). If anything, it'd be nice if it (and the loading screen and "animation" screen) were black, but, ideally, there shouldn't be any flashing at all, of course.
2. Is there an option to not display the taskbar? I realize that that's the normal way to get at the keyboard, but it'd be good to allow for alternatives (like MioPocket's MiniBar).
3. Flipping pages isn't a smooth as it seemed in the YouTube video that you pointed me to earlier. Could it be that the "movement" settings have been changed or is my device's 400MHz processor not powerful enough to handle the program smoothly?
4. Even though settings.xml indicates an icon width of 45px, when I loaded the program, the "autoconfigure" set it to 51, which made the icons look bad. I'm guessing that the program picks an icon size based on the resolution, which is probably a good thing, but perhaps it should choose from icon sizes that are multiples of 8 or 16, i.e. ones that would still look good when downsampled from the original 96x96 icons.
5. An icon on the button bar to access options and add icons would be a lot more intuitive than clicking and holding the background. Do you think that that's doable?
6. Have you made any progress in adding multiple categories (ex. "Settings", "Tools", "Apps", etc.) and a nav bar to switch between them?
7. Have you made any progress in adding icons outside of the main area and bottom area, so that we aren't restricted to them? I'd like to be able to define an icon anywhere that I want, including by giving exact coordinates.
Sorry to throw so much out there for you to address. I'm just, as you know, thinking about how I might adapt MioPocket to it, especially without having to remove features (such as the quick launch button, the SideBar, faux taskbar with start menu button and so on). It's really good so far and suitable for a lot of other people's uses already, though.
BTW, you might want to include some more information and a screenshot in the first post for those who aren't already familiar with the project . I suspect that that's your plan... just mentioning it in case not.
Wow this is really exciting. I love this app, it's really given my phone a new lease on life without its stylus.
I'm really curious to know what the change log for this version might look like, since iphone today is so central to my usability I'm a little more hesitant than I would normally be to just dive in and try a new version..
Tronikos,
can you please add me to the project on google code project?
My google account is: [email protected]
Thanks
egzthunder1,
I created this thread for the reasons Osprey00 mentioned.
I got permission from MiToNiOeS to create a google code project for iPhoneToday and upload my changes there. I hope that this move will help its further development.
Osprey00,
1. That was a stupid bug I introduced just before uploading it. Only the exe version is affected. I fixed it and uploaded 1 hour ago. Please redownload it.
2. Check the "Fullscreen" option under Misc tab. Also since the taskbar will automatically be shown whenever iPhoneToday loses focus you might want to check the "Never show taskbar" option too.
3. If my bugfix for #1 didn't do it please experiment with the "Movement" settings.
4. Yes MiToNiOeS originally had code to autoconfigure the icon size based on the screen width. I might change it to be multiple of 8 but the included icons will have to be updated too. I included MiToNiOeS's ones that are 90x90 and not 96x96. For now change AlreadyConfigured in the settings.xml to 1 and set the icon size from a script depending on the screen resolution.
5. Yes it is doable but since I don't have a device anymore (I got as a gift a nokia phone that fits my gps needs too) I am not planning to add any new features, only bugfixes.
6. Manually enter a header text in the icons.xml for each screen and change the mainscreen's top offset and header height in the options. For changing screens if you don't like flipping you can use the circles at the bottom.
7. Sorry no plans to do this.
bluenote73,
I changed quite a few things that I don't remember them now.
Once I find time to look into my code changes I will create a detailed changelog.
mathwiz314,
OK I added you.
Anyone,
If you can help in any way please feel free to ask me to add you.
You don't have to know coding. The project needs a summary page and documentation in the wiki.
Nice work, I was playing around with it in the CE emulator. I renamed your .exe as SysInfo-Start in my emulator miopocket setup. It started up everything fine and Iphone today as GUI. I get the white flashes sometimes too, but other then that it operates good. I would like a full time clock display on GUI. I would like more pages( might be possible havn't played with it enough yet), and be able to edit the dot buttons to easily navigate pages by pic or text (i.e. multimedia, setting, navigation). Going into the task bar setting and unchecking keep task bar on top, completely hide task bar, which is good IMO. I need to test it more, but your doing a fine job with this GUI.
Awesome that someone gets his hands on this.
Can't wait to see what will come next.
Hi tronikos
Thank you for keeping alive this wonderful today plugin
Hi, I don't really know much about coding but I can lend a hand if there are any graphics that need done. I don't know if this is the issue mentioned above but I have an HD2 and the icon resolution looks really low. Might I suggest using some of the many icon packs available in the HD2 Themes and Apps section or something.
Sorry if I said something noobish lol I haven't had a proper good look at it yet.
Dan
As requested, can you put a screenshot in this thread (or, at least, in your google code page) ?
I think we'are reacting better with a screenshot...
As someone said in the past : 'A pic is better than a thousand words' !
Good luck with the project !
@Osprey, Tronic and all Miopocket friends
After playing arround a little bit, all in all a very good tool. It is easy to add some pages and also create a header for the pages, so Miopocket Windows seven page folders (Favorites, Navigation etc.) could easily adapted. Also vertical scrolling is possible, but I don't know how to create pages?
Flipping pages was a mess at the beginning, instead off flipping, it always went to icon edit mode. I played arround with the movement settings, but had the feeling nothing is changing. At the very end, I disabled right klick in the settings. Now flipping works very good, but the way to come back to the setting page is closed. ==> Any ideas?
Regarding icons:
I added two icons from this board (not allowed to link)
to compare. On the picture these are the first two adobe test and igo test. By far looking better, but no problem to change.
Sorry, I am not allowed to link to image banana and , so I have to attach the picture as a zip file
Use imageshack (or photobucket...) to upload your pictures and post the forum version of the links (with pic thumbnail). Without the attachments size restrictions the bandwith cost would go through the roof!
@frmariam
it's the same. I am a new member (Feb 2009!!!!) and not allowed to link to external pages. BTW also internal links seems to be not allowed.
Probably somebody could link to the picture?

Schlork,
Putting an original copy of setting.xml in your install will take you back to default.
I noticed that the clock and calender icon are actually the clock and calender and can be customized in options somewhat. I placed the clock on bottom bar. Still trying to figure out adding pages and headers and still working with it in CE emulator.

I don't know if we are all working on the same page. Some of the posters are redirected from Tronikos to post here. We are owning thumb GPS devices, which became Porsche's since Osprey developed Miopocket for. Even now more with ability to have iphone functions.
@[email protected]
Thanks! It's not a problem to switch back, I could easily write a script and put it on a button for that. But I am wondering, if there is not another solution?
@sinoo
pretty thanks! And OT how can I convince Mods to be not a spammer?
Hi, where can i fin the "full" changelog?
Hope I can help
I know a little about coding, but I make mean FAQ and display pages (see links in my sig). I am very happy that this got picked back up and look forward to new releases. Anyone from the old iPT forum knows how much I was involved there, and I hope I can help as much here and on the google code page.
At the request of a number of you, here's a little tutorial explaining how I made the theme below, I called abstract theme (do not ask me why ...)
(Note that I am not the inventor of this type of theme, I am inspired by many themes I have seen on other forums, I thank very much the creators of wallpapers I used (I never remind theyre names except EG Fox, sorry for that))
1/ So, to start, install Launcherpro (you can also take the "plus" but paying)
(for those who are using ADW, a trick is done at the end of the tutorial)
2/ Adjust the settings you prefer (this is only the parameters related to the theme I present now, but there are other possible parameters):
- Number of pages, the default page, the number of columns, the number of lines (to position your shortcuts, personally I have 8 columns and 8 rows) => Menu / Settings / Homescreen Settings
- Number of dock (the dock is the Quick Launch bar that is located right in landscape mode, you have 5 possible shortcuts in one dock and it is possible to have up to 3 docks (to slide up or down on the dock) => Menu / Preferences / Dock Settings (you can also specify, if you choose to put shortcuts telephone, email and sms on the dock, if you want to be displayed a count of unread events)
- The bottom of the Dock (in the theme as an example, I have no background) => Menu / Preferences / Appearance Settings / Dock Background / None (if you want to put a custom dock by you or found on the net, then you must choose "Custom" and pick the dock from your SD card)
3/ Choose your screen and resize it at 800x480. So that the bottom is not distorted, use Multipicture Live Wallpaper which allows you to set a different wallpaper per page (if desired). Multipicture Live Wallpaperr is managed as an animated wallpaper
The bottom will not be distorted but the 36 Pxls top will be hidden by the notification bar.
4/ Then you need to know, based on the number of rows and columns you have chosen, where you must place your text on the wallpaper. To do so, complete page fully of shortcuts. Then made a screenshot, I recommend the excellent ScreenShot
5/ On your PC, using your editing software (photoshop, photofiltre ... etc.) you can have your wallpaper nude and the screen as it will be on your Streak with the location where applications will be.
So place your text on your nude background by ensuring that these areas are easily covered by applications..
Your wallpaper is ready !
6/ Now install Desktop Visualizer, which allows you to put shortcuts transparent (especially)
(For those who could not find it on the Market : http://www.partage-facile.com/GYV6DGY6CW/jp.co.bii.android.app.dskvzr.apk.html )
7/ Desktop Visualizer works as a widget : long press on background / add a widget and choose desktop visualizer (it has different sizes, choose the one that best fits the space you have planned for your shortcut)
DV lets you choose the icon of the application to launch, get the transparent icon on your SD card (if you do not have a transparent icon, here's one : http://www.partage-facile.com/0GJIEOUAO0/transparent.png.html )
Then select the application you want to start.
Delete the text of the application and confirm (you can change or remove the highlighting that appears when you press the link to the application you're using, otherwise it will be orange)
8/ Once you've validated, you see nothing changed on the screen, it is normal because you have placed a transparent icon ! The link will always be placed to the top left corner of your home. Make a mong press along the top left, your widget will be highlighted by launcherpro.
You may notice a kind of tab in the lower right corner of your shortcut, by pressing and holding down while moving your finger, you can resize your widget as you like.
So give the desired size for your shortcut and press "back", the highlight disappears. Now made a long press on the top left of the streak and held down, move your widget transparent to the place you want on your home. (To verify that it is well positioned, have a long support for and release to highlight it)
Do this for each shortcut you provided on your screen.
9/ The last step is the Dock. You've already put in the dock transparent, but it remains the shortcuts on the dock that are visible.
Make a long press on shortcuts, you can either change an icon (change icon/custom icon) or change the shortcut and put any you want and you can still choose the transparent icon before finalizing this shortcut.
Then, I think I pretty much said it all. To summarize, here is my wallpaper ith some details :
This is obviously a simple example that you described above some customization capabilities. Unleash your imagination and make us great themes!
I hope I was clear about (and sorry for my english), do not hesitate if you have questions or additions
Some other example of themes done with this method :
My latest :
I compiled my wallpapers and you can download them (empty and modified) here (updated with the 3 latest) : http://www.partage-facile.com/O87TRUWWBJ/compil_theme.zip.html
For you guys who wants to use these themes but on ADW Launcher, if you have any problem with Multipicture Live Wallpaper, you can try Wallstreak instead of multipicture live.
Wallstreak is not available on the market, but you can get it from this link

Thank you to ramtix for this trick
Thats a easy to follow tutorial
& your english is 100 times better than my french so no need for you to apologise
Many Thanks
Nice tutorial easy to follow Big Thanks
Well done lestat89
Thanks!
Cant wait to start playing around with these when I get home next week
can i ask a favor can you pls upload the wallpaper on the 3rd picture i really love it...thanks testat89...greats work btw
Thank you for your comments
@skyscraper04, I had a link to download my wallpapers at the end of the first post
thanks a bunch
Cant open the zip file for wallpapers.
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
I don't understand why you can't. I did some tests and I never had any problem to open the .zip (on my PC)
Did you try it on your Streak or on your PC ?
Anybody else with this problem ?
Nice work mate...love it
very creative way to get a whole new look. Nice idea!
Thank you
But the idea is not from me. I was inspired by themes I saw on other forum.
For information, I updated the .zip at the end of the 1st thread with my latest wallpapers
dude..tried to use one of your attachment as wallpaper, but everytime it asks the picture to be cropped.How do I go around this? I want the whole picture to appear on the screen
I'm not sure I've well understood your problem, but I use Multipicture live Wallpaper who allow me to have one wallpaper per page.
Is it your question ? (sorry, my english is limited)
Hi Lestat, I sorted it out. I wasnt using MultiPicture Live and I use ADW Launcher.
For you guys who wants to use Lestat's theme but on ADW Launcher, try Wallstreak instead of multipicture live.
Wallstreak is not available on the market, but you can get it from this link
http://forum.pocketables.net/showthread.php?p=55644
Thank you for the information. I added your trick at the end of the tutorial
actually I also tried multipicture live on ADW and it works perfect..better than wallstreak, more options of customization..so guys, try it. Now my desktop is uncluttered and looks better..awesome work lestat! Hope you continue this work and more wallpapers to come ;-)
Cool, thanks for the new ideas !
In your fourth example screenshot How did you get gmail, sms and phone missed calls working like that? I thought that only worked on the dock.
Hey guys. I have few of these threads around the community. I mainly started it for the One X and due to many requests from other members from different handset forums i started to expand the thread to those forums as well. So i thought i do the same thing here and share the launchers and lockscreens that i have put together so you guys can have them all in one place. So without further a do here we go

Zeam Launcher
Description
To add Applications grid shortcut, select Add > Shortcuts > Applications grid.
Try toggle Manage wallpaper if screen scrolling isn't smooth, select Preferences > Workspace > Manage wallpaper.
Zeam, thanks to its minimal aesthetic, not only looks fast but feels fast. It's also incredibly simple to use, and unlike the other launchers it actually works very well out of the box.
My favorite feature in Zeam is configurable gestures -- but not only can you bind swipe actions, like ADW, but you can also bind double tapping the screen and the Home hardware button to actions.

Lightning Launcher
Description and features
Lose the fat, keep the muscle. Be warned, Lightning Launcher is on steroïds.
Lightning Launcher: Lose the fat, keep the muscle. Be warned, this launcher is on steroïds.
Tips, please read this first:
Use "LLW App Widget" if you want to add Android widgets.
This app is started through the HOME key and not from your app drawer since LL is itself a launcher. If you cannot select it through the HOME key then you need to clear the defaults for your current launcher.
for any question or suggestion, do not hesitate to ask: [email protected]
This application has been designed to minimize memory usage and be fast: the more memory you have for your applications, the faster they will run. In other words Lightning Launcher has been built from the ground to preserve your phone's resources and keep it smooth.
In spite of its ridiculously small size (less than 60kb!), Lightning Launcher is packed with a fair amount of features and brings to Android a very unique concept: the home screen can be seen as a giant surface on which you are free to put icons, shortcuts or widgets exactly where YOU WANT, and not limited to a 4x4 grid. Pinch to zoom in or out the desktop, use the home key to switch between a full scale view or the normal size, or double tap on empty space as in the web browser to immediately see all your icons. And everything stay functional whatever the zoom level is: widgets are alive, icons can be clicked, and so on.
Lightning Launcher drops rarely used features and focuses on useful ones but comes nevertheless with numerous customization options. Icons and widgets can be moved, scaled and even rotated freely. Each object can be configured independently, you can change the font, the label, the icon and much more !
The package is extremely small, only a few kilobytes. What it means is that the Android system do not need to load several megabytes to run this app. Lightning Launcher starts faster and run in perfect harmony with your other apps.
For people kindly asking why the CALL_PHONE permission is needed (notice that this the only one needed by LL!): this is needed for direct call shortcuts, and this permission is included in all major launchers, including Go and Pro.
For other people not asking why and putting stupid one star comments: go away, you have just lost a unique chance to try something new and better, have a good day.

Description and features
Make no mistake, this is the fastest launcher you'll ever run. Small, light, configurable. The Gingerbread launcher as it should have been. No useless stuff, no compromises. Performance and usability are the driving forces here.
On version 3.0 Pro users have a all new game to play now: The Pro version can use existing ADW, GoLauncher and LauncherPro Icon and Dock themes, giving FTL and unprecedented array of possible theming. You can even mix Dock and Icon themes from different launchers. Google Play is yours for the take.
And of course you still have the other extras: configurable homsecreen grid from 4x4 to 6x6, resizeable widgets, and, never seen in any launcher: control over core Android window animation speed.
Important: FTL supports all resolutions and ICS, but only 800x480, 854x480, 960x540 and 480x320 devices have 3D drawer enabled! Also ICS has no 3D drawer because it does not contain the "old" opengl interface. But as it is natively accelerated anyway, 2D drawer should be very fast.
Features:
Theming support: The Pro version can use existing ADW, GoLauncher and LauncherPro Icon and Dock themes, giving FTL and unprecedented array of possible theming.
Tweaked for extreme speed and smoothness
Fully accelerated 3D Waterfall app drawer
Option to use "normal" 2D app drawer
Configurable support for resizeable widgets: only when adding them to the homescreen, you cannot edit them later.

Configurable number of homescreens: from 1 to 9 with configurable default homescreen
Choice between 3 and 5 icon Dock
Configurable Dock icons size

Which is the most stable lockscreen in the list? I just want a simple lockscreen that will work with Poweramp and stuff. I seriously hate it when Samsung modifies the stock lockscreen.

Hello. After upgrading from Beans v22, I have questions about config options in AllianceRom, but I'm not able to post in those threads.
1 - The text, numbers and symbols (such as battery icon) in the status bar are a little bit dim for me and I'd like to make 'em easier to read. In Statusbar Options I downloaded a plain black image and set that to background. I don't see a setting in that section for changing the font. It's currently grayish. I guess I'd like to make it bright white to improve contrast. I can't see any effect from playing with the alpha slider in Statusbar Options.
2- Related to the above, I used that same plain black image to background the notification panel to block out the underlying pages and text. (Btw, I wish both the statusbar and notifications panel options included a colorpicker rather than only image-based wallpaper)).
Like the Statusbar section, I admit I can't tell what effect the wallpaper alpha slider is having.
What I'd like to be able to do with the Notification panel is get it more Beans 22-like so it's a one-step process to get to the toggles. In Beans they were waiting for use as soon as I slid down the panel. Default setup in v.24 is a two step process: lower the panel, and then press the icon to display the toggles.
3- Speaking of the toggles, could you point me to the settings area where I can remove/change the toggle choices? I'd like to slim it down to about 10 things I'd use most often.
4- While I'm mentioning toggles, I noticed that longpressing the WiFi Hotspot toggle takes me to the USB/BT Tether screen rather than the Mobile Hotspot config/allowed devices screen. Is there somewhere I can change what happens on a longpress? (Wow I'm a pain in the butt.)
5- Dropbox. I love Dropbox the service, but not the official Dropbox app. I prefer to access it from the cloud section of ES Explorer because I can browse without syncing and just pull over the files I want. In Alliance I don't seem to be able to uninstall the Dropbox app. Rather than freeze/turn off, I'd just as soon dump it. Is that possible?
Thanks so much!

Thanks for your work..donation soon
Can you add home button on/off phone call
and maybe something to re-enable blur effect on noitifcation panel in miui 8?
Or fullscreen notification panel in miui 8 in landscape mode?
Or customize color of weather change in status bar color miui8
Please add all the options in miui tweaks module. If those options are also there in it, it will be a perfect module for miui rom.
Can you add an option to remove blue effect in notification panel of miui7? Or make an option to create the same blur in navigation bar as well when notification panel is slided down. Because when i activate navigation buttons i get blurred notifiction panel & non blurred navigation bar, looks ugly.
As well as can you add an option to remove in call ui blur? Miui tweaks has this option but it doesn't appear in my list.
Im using miui7 based on kitkat for lg g pro e980 by @gtbluesky

Great!
Can you make the same module for MIUI 8? Some settings work but most doesn't, like, "Notifications Volume" (soft reboots the device).
Also, add an option for "PIN modifier" (like offset by XX value) when using current time as PIN. Thanks!
we will considered all your request..
thanks for all your input, advice and suggestions..

Explain please more detailed, I don't quite understand what you mean.
Also I want add "Shuffle PIN keypad" option to randomly change positions of numbers buttons.
For example, by default keypad looks as:
Code:
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
0
But when this option will be enabled keypad each time will be randomly shuffled, for example:
Code:
0 8 4
9 3 1
5 2 6
7
and so on...

There's an option "Pin with time" in your module which makes the current time as your PIN. What i meant was, add an option to modify the pin by an offset.
For example, lets say the time is 19:10, if i offset it by -10, the PIN will be 1900, by +10 it'll be 1920 and so on. So the PIN will be current time +/- offset.
I am already using this feature using "ProtectedApps" module. But it'll be great if you can add it.
Also I want add "Shuffle PIN keypad" option to randomly change positions of numbers buttons.
For example, by default keypad looks as:
Code:
1 2 3
4 5 6

That's one more awesome mod!
I have a few more suggestions.
1. Expand Notifications by default (notifications will always be expanded)
2. Extended reboot menu (reboot to recovery, fastboot etc)
Also, is it possible to arrange the apps by name in the default MIUI launcher? If it is, then an option for that too.
Thanks!

Now it works exactly as you describe above except that negative value can't be used.
Now (with enabled option), if you set PIN to "0000" then "real PIN" will be exactly current time.
If you set PIN to "0010" then "real PIN" will be current time +10 and so on.
So, as I said exactly what you ask except "negative offset".
Awesomeee... running multirom 6. 5. 26_4.4
