What do your X Screens look like?

Is there a way to put the dock that is along the bottom of the home screen, vertically on the left or right or at the top of the screen?

Could have sworn i have seen this somewhere but have searched all over for about an hour and a half and can not seem to find anything.

Thanks for any help :)
 
So I finally rooted my phone :) It was surprisingly easy. Nothing fancy here. Just a slightly modded dock with LP+. Here are my first screenshots :)

These are currently my 3 main screens (out of 7):





Thanks to newone757 on xda-developers.com and paulmz in the Android Themes section.


I'm experimenting with these to see how I like them. The LP dock shown uses a transparent icon in all 5 slots, so apps can still be accessed as normal via press/swipe gesture -- the center circle is set to access the App Drawer as usual. I have extended the dock left and right (that is, it doesn't loop). So I just swipe the dock either left or right to access the addl docks where I have anchored a few LP icons.


If anyone is interested in the graphic icons, check the links I posted above.

Where and how do I get that colorful app button (I think it is), in the middle bottom of your screen, what image do I change?

How do I get that stuff on your lock screen you have? how to apply, what you used???

Thank You
 
The battery meter in the notification bar, what is that? Part of a theme or mod?

I got it as part of Fabulous's Revolution theme, but I bet he can port it over as a metamorph if you ask him nicely...

Edit: I think it may require a different framework.res or services.jar file due to the way it increments. Fabulous would know best.

That colorful circle is actually Dolphin Browser HD, the icon is the icon for Google Chrome. I just did a google image search for a Google Chrome icon and used one I found. I have a swipe gesture for that icon that opens my app drawer. The customizable dock is part of LauncherPro, you can customize all the icons and the dock background.

I used WidgetLocker for my lockscreen.

Were you able to auto-populate your calendar/agenda widget with DST, Election Day, etc., like you can do on the Outlook Calendar, or did you have to put those in yourself? If auto, please explain how you did it. Thanks!
 
Thanks, wish someone knew what site it came from...to see if there's others like it. but that'll suffice for now.:D

You could ask in the Revolution thread. I had shown it earlier in this thread and had some requests for it so I put it up for download. I believe the post you were responding to was one of the requesters.

The DX version of Revolution is a port and I don't know how long it has been around on different Android devices. It may have been created by the author of Revolution or he may have obtained it from somewhere.

You can subscribe to calendars that have holidays and important dates with the google calendar.

app drawer > calender > press hard menu key > more > calenders.

you can change the visible/sync options for the calender here for all your accounts.

Yep, go to google.com/calendar and subscribe to the holidays calendar

Then on your phone make sure holidays is one of your calendars that syncs, then you are all set

To be honest I just found it in the Goodies zip that came with revolution, but I agree that I would like to know where it came from too.

Thanks for the info Greg.

I talked to Fabulous, he ported the theme over from someone else so I'm trying to contact the original creator. I'll post up if I find anything out.
