Though newone757 recommends adding them to home screen as widgets

good guide. But i might recommend adding them to homecreen as a widget instead of shortcut. That way when you change icons in the app they automatically update on the homescreen without recreating all your shortcuts

also for anyone that didnt know. You can save your icon setups in folder organizer. hit menu then export and name your file. to recall it just import it, and restart the phone, boom, just like you left them. I always save my theme before i start editing icons again

You can download icons packs from the market or below

Wow! Highs in 102 degrees?! i would melt!

Wow! Highs in 102 degrees?! i would melt!

not hot. i got up to 110 f while charging and downloading. my laptop runs at about 145f when im working it good. dont see why a cellphone couldnt handle those temps. technically my macbook is rated to handle about 212f before maybe shutting off...

and get real, many places in the US get over 100 f during the summer. chips are made to well out stand those temps...

Does ShootMe really only work on rooted phones?

ShootMe used to only work on rooted phones, but it works fine on un-rooted EVOs.

Really? Pretty sure he meant it would be hot for a human being.

All the fotos you took by shaking your phone ended on your SD card, so just connect the phone using the USB cable that came with it - then on the drop down menu of the EVO choose DISK DRIVE - that should get you to see Removable drive in your My Computer, inside that is a Shootme folder containing your fotos. Now just upload. I used TinyPic.com

 

[jmxp69]

Or just get a file manager from the market like Astro and e-mail the picture to yourself. Browse to the picture with the file manager, long press, share via e-mail.

well since Ive had my phone for a week i have a lot more shots and transformation to share. chronological order starting from 1 hour old lol

 

[mbell75]

I have NEVER seen that level of customization on an Android device. Care to share with me how I can go about these types of changes?

 

[newone757]

^^depends which screen youre talkin.

main things of note are perhaps the launcher (ADW.Launcher) in place of the sense/stock launchers. and bettercut (not free), and free iconpacks in market to change Home screen icons/names.

majority of those shots were accomplished using only that. the clock widget varies too, beautiful home is perhaps the most popular. And digital clock widget is simple and free

Instead of having the Engadget app, you can use the included News widget and click Engadget feeds, kinda a cool option to check out -
