Android Phone 7 Theme

Thanks. The pics from the links on page 1 download from dropbox are clear, but the ones on pages 19 & 20 from imageshack are blurry. And the link for dropbox on page 20 download, but opens with nothing. Not sure what I am doing wrong.

Well, I have never tried to do any of this without a computer. But if you insist on doing this solely on the device without the use of a computer:

1. When in the "Android Forums" app and browsing the "Android7 Theme" thread, press on the image that you want to download.
2. When the ImageShack page loads, long-press on the image and select "Save Image".
3. Press "OK" on the "Save as:" dialog box.
4. Done.

If you don't have it set already, it would probably be a good idea to set your browser to save all of the image downloads to a specific folder (rather than the standard "downloads" folder) on the phone memory (if possible).

Hope this helps.

I posted a reply to this yesterday but it didn't show up.

The only images I see for download on page 20 are these:



I download them just fine and they look just as I made them.

There are no images available for download on page 19 that I can see.

Also, the only Dropbox link I see on page 20 is for the MyriadPro font, which also downloads just fine.

If I missed something, please post a link to the posts which you are referring or post a reply or private message to the person who posted the images you are having problems with.
 
I read AWD launcher is not up to date... is it a good idea to use it?
(I'm using an HTC Incredible S with Android 2.3.3 btw, if that makes a difference)

I couldn't really say. I am using ADWLauncher EX on my Incredible right now. The stupid thing force closes at least once a day but, other than that, it is a great launcher.

It's not a big deal to change launchers. If you want to test one out and switch between launchers, download something like:
Home Switcher for Froyo

The standard ADWLauncher is free. I don't have any problems with that one. I would say it's definitely worth giving it a shot.
 
hm, ok... I guess I'll give it a try later this evening... or tomorrow. I tend to only start customizing things when all is going to be alright ^^"

edit: ok... I have ADW Launcher installed but it seems to lag... in the application drawer menu thing. I have no idea why.
 
Thanks so much for all your hard work and great inspiration. Your lockscreen post got me hooked on making new setups for my phone.
I saw resolution parameters for 320x480 resolution, and sizes for adw ex without notification and dock. Do you have anything available for both those conditions? I'm trying adw ex sans dock and top bar on lg optimus v. I tried the config tool for dekstop visualizer, but like you, had no mentioned in an earlier post, I also go no read out.
Also, this might have been clear and I simply misread: the figures for 320x480 for launcherpro...will those work without the notification bar showing? Like you, I'm starting to wonder at the fc's on adw ex.
Thanks, MP

MP, I just shut down my computer for the night and am off to bed, but I'll look into this tomorrow.

the ADW Launcher app drawer is lagging ... a lot. Anyone else have this problem?

I am not having that problem, no. I haven't gone into the non-EX version yet, but are there settings for different styles of app drawer? Or maybe turn off the "Animated Drawer" option?

Not sure. Just throwing ideas out there.
 
I'm using ADW Launcher EX and I just tried turning off that option, but it doesn't improve. Could it be that the standard HTC Sense launcher is still running in the background or something?

Also... when I zoom out to show all home screens I can't do anything anymore. All that works is the home button.

Did you try turning off the 'new sense preview' option? Helped a lot for me.
 
ah, yes... that works. And I also enabled the wallpaper hack option... which made it move smoother miraculously o:

well, time to get customizing I guess :D

No worries, thanks in advance. Oh, and forgot to post my measuring screen for you:

So I just took a look at your screenshot and the vertical ones are not adding up. Let's make sure that your ADW settings are correct: under "Screen Preferences"-> "Advanced settings" make sure that "Auto Stretch" is selected. This is the only thing I can think of why the height measurements aren't jiving.

Also, don't save those red and yellow bars by right-clicking on them. Those are only thumbnails. If you left-click on each one, it will link to ImageShack so you can download the full-sized test png's.

Post another screen shot after and I'll take another look at it.

Thanks for your help. Sorry about the auto sizing, you were right about that.
So I used the original pngs...and the 1x1 red would not show up. I suppose my device is so low res that it wouldn't register, not even on a white wallpaper. So I widgened (but didn't lengthen) the red line for the 1x1 seen below.
Edit: I took off the screen indicator at the top - don't want or need it. Maybe that will explain earlier vert distortion.

Okay, as strange as it seems, the widget image dimensions for 4-columns/6-rows without notification bar or dock are exactly the same as the 4-column/5-row with dock and notification bar.

So, building off of the original dimensions for a device with a 320 x 480 resolution, here are the pixel dimensions for Desktop Visualizer widgets using ADW Launcher set to 4-columns/6-rows with the dock and notification bar turned off:

Widths: 1=74, 2=154, 3=234, 4=314
Heights: 1=74, 2=154, 3=234, 4=314, 5=394, 6=474

Hope this helps.

DISCO! Thanks so much.
Just because I'm overly curious: is there a set of calculations for determining what happens with additional rows/columns? I think you mentioned 10px between widgets earlier, but I wasn't sure if that only applied to 4/6 layout.
Now I go play, thanks for all your hard work.
 
I'm not sure how change the docking settings, and make it look different. I'm using LauncherPro, not LauncherPro Plus, if that has to do with it.

No... there isn't a formula of calculations for figuring out dimensions. It's actually just placing some sample images (the red and yellow bars) that automatically adjust to the maximum size and then getting the pixel dimensions from Photoshop.

Most devices do have a 10-pixel gap between widgets. I believe that your device, however, has a 6-pixel gap. I don't know if this helps at all.
