Post sweeterhome 2 themes

anytime. i had to uninstall sweeter home and reinstall it. the last theme i tried probably wasn't compatible with the droid and it wouldn't allow me to put ANY other theme on. i wish people would put what phone they used to make it. that taught me a lesson.

Go into edit theme mode and it will give you a menu to upload. You can send it to either the internet or to your SD card.
 
Anyone feel like posting a quick tutorial on what the different functions are? I've watched the video (probably have to do so again) and the developer's docs are nonexistent.

I would like to be able to understand exactly what each of the "springboards", "blocks" etc. are.

Thanks!

I do not know if this will help, but it may get you started. I wrote a brief method of setting up springboards at the link below.

I can't imagine any tutorial being quick with this home replacement. Try what I have and it may give you enough knowledge to try things yourself.

I hope this helps.
 
Show great potential, but waiting for less minimalistic themes with better icons etc...

iphone theme is fun, but just shows how lame the iphone interface is.
 
I've been waiting for this release for a while now :D

Just curious for all of you who have been using this...how is the performance in comparison to A. other homescreen replacement apps and B. the default homescreen?

The reason I ask is, with 2.1 coming in the not too distant future, I was considering just using the default homescreen (now that it has more screens), I'm concerned how useful homescreen apps in general will be, especially if they decrease performance

My opinion is that it is better than other home screen replacements because you have complete, and I do mean complete, control of your setup. If you want a dock at the bottom, make one, etc.

As far as speed, I have not noticed any slow down when switching screens. It is very responsive. I do have a bit of stutter in the All Apps Tray when scrolling, but nothing major.

There are minor bugs here and there but they have not caused any problems.

It is free, so why not try it out. It is a bit addicting once you understand how to utilize it, and I am still learning.
 
Downloaded, watched videos, and read posts, but I still have a lot of "how to" questions. Not sure if this is the place to post those. I'm sure a lot of people will have many other "how to" questions because of how involved this one is. So far it looks like the best one out there without a doubt. I love how you can customize pretty much everything. So for now, should we start a "sweeterhome how to" thread?

Why are my app icons so pixelated (e.g. in the "all apps" tray)?

Nevermind, apparently if you change the pixel size the icon may look distorted unless you restart the phone. After restart, looks fine

how do you open it after you have it saved? i can not figure it out for the life of me.

Edit: saved from the SD that is
 
So, maybeI'm posting this in the wrong thread. but how does Sweeterhome affect battery life?

I was using Home++ for awhile but decided to go back to stock home app and noticed longer battery life. Just wondering if this will eat up my battery like Home++ did?

Why are most of the downloadable themes UNfinished??? And I'm not talking a little bit here. But like, there are some that are only about 10-15% completed. Is it really necessary to share that theme with the world at that point? :confused:

[rant OFF]


OK . . . carry on. :)
 
I do not see a point in downloading themes from others unless you use it as a template since we all do not have the same programs/widgets installed. Because of this, it appears unfinished. I know widgets are unpopulated so springboards are about the only thing of use.

I think it would be more useful for people to post screenshots, just to give each other ideas. Just my view.
 
Hey Joe you brought up a good point I've tryed a lot of themes and a lot only use one page. .lets go guys lets start seeing your created themes ill be posting my really soon

And quick question how do you get a wallpaper on the top and bottom screen even now there is no point for 5 screens when using all the springboards?
