View 3 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Custom Launcherpro For Download
Sep 12, 2010I've been posting my customizations to LP+ all over and I figured it makes more sense to just start a thread. The LP+ theme is based off of manup and fabulous's revolution theme. All widgets are themed the same way, and yes the facebook widget is included. I plan on replacing the .apk with the most current version as soon as the new one is available, so please let me know if I need to make the new one.
*No root required*
Backup current launcherpro settings
Uninstall launcherpro
Put .apk on sd card and install via astro or any other file manager
Push home button then restore backup (non LP+ widgets will have to be readded)
Adding the market version with remove all customization
Tomorrow I'm going to remake the google search box and add it to this. And I'm open to making maybe another color or two and some other widgets (free or common ones)

Apr 12, 2012Most of the tablets with android 3+ have this large black bar at the bottom. I'm not sure how it is called but I mean this bar where the clock, back and home button and the notification icons are on.
On the middle area of this bar there is always much space depending on the number of notifications on the right.
My idea was to use this space for shortcuts to apps or tasker tasks. Just like in windows the Quick Launch Toolbar on the task bar.
But until now I haven't found any solution.
Here is what I have:
I'm using tasker scenes to build my own shortcut buttons. Then I displayed these buttons as always on top and half transparent directly on the screen in the normal application display area. It seems that tasker is not able to display these buttons over the system bar. So this isn't a complete solution of my problem since the free display space on the bar is still not in use.
On the other hand I do know that it must be possible to program apps which are overlayed on the system bar since other apps can be placed over it.
Anyway... I'm searching for a clean solution to get shortcuts on the system bar to start apps or tasker tasks with one click or touch.
General :: Custom Sized Shortcuts (NOT Widgets) With Apex Launcher
Mar 28, 2012I'm redoing my home screen, and I want to have a few text icons that take me directly to specific home screens. Apex launcher has action shortcuts for this, but they are only 1x1. I cannot use widgets to get these actions... I have to use shortcuts. I have done what I want with 1x1 shortcuts, but they are just too small for my taste. I really want 2x1 shortcuts. I have not been able to figure out how to make them with either Simple Text or Desktop Visualizer.

Aug 16, 2012My government gave us galaxy (10.1) tablets instead of books. But unfortunately this tablets's OS is not a normal android 3.2; It has been customized and we can't access many applications or other thinks. So I've decided to make a new custom rom for this tablets to offer in a competition of project. I have 2,5 months for this competition and I should make this rom. I've downloaded the android source (I want to work on 4.1jb) It is 4.2gb on my ubuntu 12.04 and I don't understand anything till see your answer on stackoverflow. I read and have some knowledge about system but It is not enough.. I know c# lang and I know general coding for 4 years.
I should edit the launcher (I said desktop but I don't know how calls It..). It has programs and widgets tabs and I want to put a new tab here. And anyone cannot see programs and widgets tab without any permission. This permission will give students's tablets by teacher ('s tablet). So, students can't play anything in the lesson but when it is over, stundents can play anything what they want.. Teacher will give the permission before leaving class..
This is what I want to do.. Briefly, I want to make a custom rom but directly using android source codes.Because I think I can't make this rom with using kitchen or just editing .apk files..
Sprint HTC Hero :: Create Custom Icons For Folders Or Add Shortcuts Into App Organizer Groups
Feb 11, 2010How to - create custom icons for folders or add shortcuts into App Organizer Groups
I've been playing around with the App Organizer, and been putting things into folders. However, I am trying to do a few things.
Add shortcuts into the groups App Organizer creates, and/or create custom icons for Folders I put on the Home pages.
For example, I have 6 mail accounts (don't ask) and want to put them in a group called mail. Using AppOrganizer, I can only organizer the main mail icon into the group, I want to add the 5 other shortcuts I created for each account. OR I group them into a folder, but I want to change the folder icon to an envelope.
Also, anyone know any good apps that puts email notifications on the top taskbar?
Android :: Making List Items Of Book Previews Custom Implementation
Aug 19, 2010I have used RelativeLayout for a custom implementation of a ListAdapter and I am not sure if I can continue using this or if I need to use TableLayout. In the first example I have the text positioned as I would like by using one image view and one text view containing the book name and the author name. However, I want to style the author text differently so I think I will need two text views. In the second example I have added another text view but it floats to the right. Second eg is Clipboard02.png. How can I make the second text view go under the first text (as in eg 1). I have done this in code rather than using XML layout.
http://carriehall.co.uk/Clipboard01.png
LinearLayout.LayoutParams skyParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams( 70, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT );
ImageView skyControl = new ImageView( context );
skyControl.setImageResource( R.drawable.the_eyre_affair );
addView( skyControl, skyParams );
LinearLayout.LayoutParams bookParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams( LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
bookParams.setMargins( 5, 10, 5, 10 );
TextView bookControl = new TextView( context );
bookControl.setTextAppearance( context, R.style.SpecialText );
bookControl.setText( book.getTitle( ) + "
" + book.getAuthor( )); addView( bookControl, bookParams );

Custom Drawable Making Edge Of Image Fade Out
Jan 22, 2014I have a custom drawable, where I draw a base bitmap image, then part of an image over the top of that that is clipped to a certain rectangle. For the overlayed image, I am trying to blur the edges, and I thought I could accomplish that using a BlurMaskFilter, however, I'm not seeing any blurring occurring.
Here is the content of the draw method from my Drawable class.The result is almost correct, except the overlay image is not being blurred.
m_paint = new Paint();
m_blurPaint = new Paint();
m_blurPaint.SetMaskFilter(new BlurMaskFilter(blurRadius, BlurMaskFilter.Blur.Outer));
[code]...
This code is written in C# using Xamarin, so I realize that some things are slightly different, but the overall methods will be the same.
General :: Making / Editing Custom ROMs Using Linux
Mar 18, 2013My ideal place to get to is to eventually provide the community here with custom roms and mods which everyone can enjoy on their devices, just like what all the greats devs do here day in day out.... but before I get there, I'm on a path of discovery. At the minute, I want to take a XDA dev's already pre worked ROM, go in to it and change a few things up.... edit the apps, maybe play with a few apks, change the ringtones etc, and then resign the ROM and flash it to my device.
I've been reading some great tutorials such as [URL] ..... which I am finding very useful, however....
They seem to be geared towards someone working on a windows machine. I dont want to do it in Windows, I want to do it in Linux... I dont wish to use "CygWin" and I would rather do it manually than use a kitchen - I could easily follow these guides in Windows and achieve my stated aim of a slightly modified custom ROM, however, the overall goal here is to acquire knowledge, and enjoy the process as it goes along.
Now, my current understanding under Linux (Mint 13) is that I can download a recovery flashable Zip, go in to it, and just change up some of the files as I desire.... but then I get confused when it comes to repackaging the ROM prior to flashing it to my device. How would I go about doing this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: LauncherPro Has Disappeared
Jun 5, 2010I just discovered something very strange. I had installed LauncherPro from the Market a couple of weeks ago to try it out on my Moto Droid, and was able to run it by selecting its icon from my list of apps in my app drawer. I recently downloaded an update for it, and now it no longer shows up in my app drawer. If I go to Settings:Applications:Manage Applications it shows LauncherPro as being installed... However, it is nowhere to be found. I have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it twice using Manage Applications, but to no avail.
Is this a problem with LauncherPro or my phone? None of my other installed applications have icons that have disappeared like this before.

Oct 29, 2010just got my first Android phone today - a Captivate. I've been doing some reading and think I might want to try out Launcher Pro (the paid version?) and Beautiful Widgets. I just want to make sure there wasn't a whole lot of overlap in these two products. Do they work well together? Do most of you run both of them at the same time? This could be a pretty silly question as I totally not even sure what exactly both of these apps do.

Jul 20, 2010So I have LauncherPro and it is working spectacularly, but I have one question. I really liked how when moving to other screens, the dX displayed the buttons to quickly jump to each screen or the home screen. Is there a way to do something like this on launcherpro, or do I have to hit the home button where it shows all the screens small and I can select one.

Don't know what else to try at this point.

Jul 17, 2010I don't know if any of you guys know this, but this was an awesome discovery to me. I found out that you can actually move left and right on the dock to add more icons! There are 2x more sets of 5 that you can add. I found this by accidentally swiping right on the dock when I wanted to change homescreens. I now have to change my homescreens because now I can add 15 of my most used apps on the dock, which will clear up the screen space for more stuff. I'm already having trouble filling up the 7 screens.LauncherPro is AWESOME!Have any kind of "secret" tips with this app?
