[APP] Google Reader v1.1.1 | Feed widget modded for dark wallpapers - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I didn't like the original look of the Reader Feed widget on my phone, and the alternative readers on the market either, so...

}
- Original Google Reader v1.1.1 (for ICS 4.0.1+).
- Nothing serious changed, only 6 xmls have been modified to get transparent look & white/blue text in the widget.
- Signed.
First you need to delete the original Reader from your apps!
Then put the APK on your /sdcard, install it via Root Explorer or whatever you have.
If an update comes from the Android Market, I'll update asap. (If you update from market, you'll get the original look back.)
Hope you like it.

Doesn't work for me. Stock (rooted) LTE Nexus; the app works, but the widget is not available in the widgets list. Also, you cannot override the original reader due to a signature conflict.

Hmm, then I think you should remove the original Reader. I just realized that last time I installed, I overwrote my previous version, and the signature conflict didn't appear.
I'll modify the OP, thanks.
None of the reader widgets appear on your widget list, or the Feed is the only missing one?

Sorry, I should have clarified that. I did the uninstall of the old one and installed yours. The only widget remaining was the 1x1 Reader feed widget. The 3x3 Reader, 3x1 Reader ticker, and 1x1 Reader unread were missing.
Looks great from the screenshots, though.

Great job!! Thanks. Hopefully you can update as newer versions are released - given the slow pace of Reader updates I doubt you'll have a problem

Well, that wasn't expected.
But of course, I can modify those as well.
Check this post for updates later today!

Gmail & Calendar are a bit heavier than I thought, as they're embedded system apps (not Market apps, like Reader).
Or I'm just too new to this modding-thing.
I'm in the middle of my exam period, but I won't give up, hopefully I'll have more time in the weekend and I can figure out something.
Thanks for your patience.

Thanks, doesn't matter if you accomplish that, only the effort is a source of thanks!! =D

Gmail in progress
Edit: not that easy as I thought... Background transparency was a piece of cake, but the widget uses common layout with the main Gmail app, so I need to write a whole new layout, add colors/IDs and everything to make the widget's text white...

Can i make a request? Can you add other text colours or can you tell me which file do i have to edit please?

[12-10-2011][THEME] TW4.5 SGS II theme v3.3 (CM7 version updated!)

12-10-2011: CyanogenMod 7(.1) version updated!
I'll be doing more work, to get the whole app themed with SGS II/ other nice icons that fit the theme
Ta-DAAAA!!!!!
It has arrived. My version 3.2 of the SGS II theme includes A LOT of SGS II app icons, even in your app drawer and CyanogenMod 7.
I will be working to make this better when suggestions are made .
Little question: Who would like to see a LauncherPro theme of this?
I'm also thinking about doing something else theme-related, but more rigourous. Who would like permanent SGS II icons on their apps, without a theme?
Aaaaand... Can someone get me some old MotoBlur icons? Want to make that a theme too Already have the new icons
The apps included are:
- Browser
- Calendar
- Contacts
- Email
- Messaging
- Downloads
- Settings
- Tasks (SGS II app)
- Gallery (A.K.A. Gallery3D)
- GMail
- Google Search
- Google Talk
- Voice Search
- YouTube
- Kies Air
- Calculator
- Camera
- Clock
- Task Manager (Samsung's)
- Phone (A.K.A. Dialer)
- AllShare
- FM Radio
- Memo (Samsung's)
- My Files (Samsung's)
- Video Editor
- Video Player (Samsung's)
- Photo Editor
- Samsung Apps
- IM (SGS II app)
- Vlingo Voice To Go (Both shortcuts have the same icon.)
If an icon is the same on every device, or doesn't work with your device, please tell me and I'll look into it.
Please PM me if you use my icons for a ROM/theme/whatever.
Why not post this in the TW4.5 theme collection? I have, with a link to this thread.
This is mainly to get it noticed, instead of it not getting noticed.
Apart from that, the thread is not very lively anymore...
I would like to thank my brother for letting me look at the activities which I didn't have anymore...
One last thing: I will be doing requested themes (I don't have PhotoShop skills, so it's better if you provide the icons ), and if someone can post the MotoBlur icons, I will make a theme out of those too.

This is on CM7, but ofcourse it looks the same as on a Samsung rom, because the icons are the same. Only the package names differ, that's why Bassie made a different CM7 zip.

Can you put some screen captures ?
Screenshots please
Screenshot or it didnĀ“thappen
WOW?! Reactions?
Will make some pics. It happened alright.
I don't have all the apps on my device, so I will list them in the OP. With that, a picture.
As you can see, they are a bit foggy in the drawer, but not too much.
Also, Samsung Apps doesn't seem to have changed. It should have a blue background, can anyone verify?
Little question: Who would like to see a LauncherPro theme of this?
Then as the last thing: I'm also thinking about doing something else theme-related, but more rigourous.
Wow very good
And where is the theme off notification bar ? It's very beautiful
Sorry to say but PNG are upscaled, they look little blurry. Try to capture big size PNG icons for apps

That's not possible, these are simply icons for the TouchWiz 4.5 launcher.

I know, they are upscaled. That was the only way to get them big enough in the app drawer, it automatically makes them look small in the drawer.
Therefore, I am asking for a fix. How do I get bigger icons that look right? Maybe take a pic of a theme on here?
The icons in the dock don't get made smaller, so they are fine in the dock...
And I accidentally thanked you for your post Well, you have that one from me already

I have the exact same problem.
It must be a bug in the launcher... Thanks for reminding me.
I will ask for a fix
My Phone has the icon of contacts, hmmm what can i do?
do the samsung apps work on this? like the feeds and stuff
@strickyy and maddoggin: what do you mean?
Maddoggin, if you mean the widgets (is there a full app called feeds), those should work, since it is a Samsung launcher. If you mean the icons: I have only themed Samsung apps, I didn't find more of Samsung than I said in the first post.

good start
Its a good start. Needs some improvements Im gonna keep an eye on it. Would like to see the ability to send messages from widget instead of launching talk. Also its crashing alot on me on axium 2.4. Sent a report
https://market.android.com/details?...UwMSwiZGUuRnI0Z2cwci5UYWxrV2lkZ2V0LmxpZ2h0Il0.
Wow, thought one would never come. Considering I use Gtalk almost religiously, it's fantastic that there's finally a widget of some sort for it. I've always wondered why something like Gtalk didn't have more support for it.
This app is a good start but like others have mentioned, sending messages from the widget itself would be awesome.
nice find. works fairly well, it just needs the interface cleaned up a bit
I would also like to see the ability to only show active chats. Its definitely a work in progress bi just really hope this gets the attention it deserves
Thanks! Works pretty well.

Thanks for the tip, it worked and the widget did download and install now. But now I can not use the widget. I go between a Sense ROM(Android 4.0.3 and Sense 3.6) and a CMX ROM(Android4.1.1) and the Sense ROM is the one I had trouble installing the widget on. On the Sense ROM the widget showed up once in my list of widgets and put the widget on my home screen. But it just opens up to the settings for the widget, and it does the same when I open the widget in the app tray. So I removed it from my home screen and now it does not show in my list of widgets but it is in my app tray still. I will be testing it on my CMX ROM later today and will post back with feed back on it as well.
Edit: I just now realized this thread is in the Galaxy Nexus Themes and Apps forum. I have a HTC Sensation but I found this thread by google search for a G Talk Widget.
Has this been removed from the market?
Is an apk still available?
TIA

[APP][Launcher] ICS Trebuchet Launcher

This is just the vanilla launcher from 20120617 CM9 Nightly for Tenderloin (HP Touchpad). No features has been added (yet). Incase you don't know, Trebuchet is the name for the stock CM9 launcher. See screenshots below for differences:

Tested on the 80G9. Not sure how this would look on the 101G9. Also, seems a little faster than the stock launcher.

There should be no dependencies.
However try integrating it into the firmware (it was designed to work from /system/app)- ICS does restrict launcher behaviour if it is not a system app (like for Apex- you can't put a widget from Drawer if it's a user app)

No, it is for all screen sizes (well, maybe except qvga but I didn't test this)
Like Trebuchet Concept, Looking Forward
Once I figured out how to use it, I kind of like the minimalist approach. Dragging app icons and widgets to the screens is much quicker than click, click, find, click, ... and the widget re-sizing dot feature touted in Jellybean is already there (but can be applied asymmetrically for some strange results).
However, this thing is still primitive. No properties except wallpapers.
I put on adw (former XDA launcher) just to have a more usable system. I do not look for fancy eye-candy like go. Just some simple properties like:
Grid density--I like fitting more icons on the page (I find the adw refitting not the best so leave that unchecked).
Along with this, might need the widget auto-refit idea from Jellybean.
Number of home screens (elementary).
Last but not least, a backup and restore.
Another interesting idea I got by accident in another launcher: superimpose icon over larger widget. When clicked, takes precedence, of course. Since screen real-estate, especially in smaller phones, is at a premium, this could be a "killer."
Two bugs I found:
Possible to place two icons in same place on app bar. Embarrassing.
Widgets did not "come back" after reboot sometimes.
Got a Nice Version!
There are multiple versions around for download, without any systematic way of choosing other than: The Biggest Has More Features Implemented. I found a 10 meg version in a flash-able zip that has most of what I wanted already there!
Still needs a backup and save, and important: way of resetting as the default launcher
The general widget re-sizing works great, even re-positioning to a halfway spot so the re-sizing makes sense. Great.
Minor bugs around:
The news and weather widget re-sizing works incorrectly. ADW does it fine.
Icon label text is cut off (at least on 5-row view). Vertical padding makes it worse. Needs be tucked in closer to the icon.
I might assume that a somewhat larger apk is around somewhere with more features and fixes. Once I can get it again as default launcher, I will play with it some more.
It did not passed on my 7 inch tablet :-( There is margins at the bottom and top with a height of regular icon size.

[MOD] BlinkFeed articles view modding (4.2.2, updated: 4 june)

Hi 2 all. When we are reading BlinkFeed articles we see that:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
First tweak remove footer with share button.
Second tweak made title and text of articles smaller.
And we get this:
Tested on TrickDroid 7.5.0, but must work on any 4.2.2 firmware (deodexed). Flashable zip in attach
Also you can revert back to stock look. See attachments
I cannot support this mod anymore - i came on SGS4
Perfect!
Thanks for this! Share button is pointless.
any chance you could remove the clock and weather from blink feed also? So redundant...

thought so, Thanks for confirming.
You can't modify any feeds as the list of feeds are only provided by a 3rd party site to the app itself. What needs to be done to blinkfeed is to recode it to add support for custom rss urls.

When you have blink feed up, the clock and the weather are useless to me and the ONLY reason I never use blinkfeed. Not having them there at all, and an extra news feed picture would be far better and more useful. I already have a weather widget, and the clock is on my taskbar.
Thanks!

[Q] How did he do this? Homescreen help!

Hi Guys,
I recently saw a homescreen posted in the homescreen forum for the HTC One M8 that I really just loved. I tried contacting the person who created it, but he hasn't quite replied and Im unsure if he will.
I don't mean to intentionally rip him off, but I just love the way it looks and how clean it is that I wish to have it on my phone. However I have no clue how to do this. I figured the best and easiest way was to ask him about it directly, or even ask in the forum itself. But it seems as though its been skimmed over and no one has replied, so I hope you don't mind me creating a new thread just for it.
He gives the zooper widgets for the top and bottom bars, which i downloaded, he gives the list of apps used. But me being a fairly new techy, I have no idea what to do. I can get all these apps, its just a matter of using them correctly.
I figured that maybe some of you guys knew what to do? Maybe help me on my way?

Here is my setup taken from my n5 and ported over to my m8: dpi at 400 and onscreen buttons hidden. double tapping the home screen turns off screen and locks phone.

But it seems as though its been skimmed over and no one has replied, so I hope you don't mind me creating a new thread just for it.
He gives the zooper widgets for the top and bottom bars, which i downloaded, he gives the list of apps used. But me being a fairly new techy, I have no idea what to do. I can get all these apps, its just a matter of using them correctly.
I figured that maybe some of you guys knew what to do? Maybe help me on my way?

Sorry, its coming up on my screen for some reason, i re-tried quoting his post and just copy+pasting it here, but not sure if thats worked...

heres the link to that thread, the homescreen I'm talking about is the very first one by 'djkinetic'
Cheers,
Also is a root required? As I currently havent got mine rooted, and I'm not sure if I should!
Cheers,
Get all the apps he listed. He's also using custom icons, looks like they're Cyrcle (in the store). Then, simply add widgets. Honestly, that set up looks like it took him a while. I'd download the launcher called Buzz Launcher, since there are many ones just like that in the community downloads
As it's fun to find out about and doing these changes all by yourself I'll give you only some additional information for success:
'Coming from N5' implements, he is running the GPE version for this device (any AOSP/AOKP rom should do as well - as a sense rom might behave different under some circumstances)
To change screen density you have to edit /system/build.prop by finding the line ro.sf.lcd_density=480 and change its value to 400. Reboot...
This set of icons always has to do sth with the word circles - a proper search might bring you here.
Remove everything from screen, check nova settings and now start playing around initially with zooper widgets and the rest of his tools.
The result should be this screen. Have fun! :laugh:
---- edit
Oooops - forgot the wallpaper. TinyEye reverse search will bring you here.
One more thing: Without root you won't be able to edit build prop. Remember: No root - no fun.
Looks to me like he's using themer.
Looks like a lot of work done using UCCW and a custom launcher such as ssLauncher to open up the whole screen
Anybody knows the white icon pack being used here?
Just download Themer from Google Play, there's dozens of themes many like this too.
