Android Phone 7 Theme

Curt, that was the fix for my icon sizes. Thanks so much!

Make sure you check "hide icon label" when you're setting up the SMS Unread Count widgets, that will make the icons the right size

I used the Incredible Templates that where posted earlier in the thread thinking they would work on my droid here is what I got

Obviously there not the correct size. Could someone post the correct size please.

Um... your "droid" what? Different resolutions produce different dimensions for the icons.

I believe Curt has a DroidX with a resolution of 480x854. If your phone has this resolution, then something else is amiss.

Please read thoroughly Post 1 of this thread.

Off the top of my head, I would guess that you do not have the "Auto-Fit Items" option selected in LauncherPro.

That's a droid screen? That should be 480x854 like the droid x...not sure why it's not working.

Good call, Curt. I just assumed that this was not the answer because the actual label was not visible.

Hey guys..new to site but read the entire thread. whew!!! Excited about this theme. Will start at the beginning again and try to customize my Fascinate. Might need a little help though. Great job by all who have posted. Sh!#*..some are very, very good.

 

[jackgibbs]

hi paul.

would it be possible to skin a gps on/off widget to match the others? curvefish has one I assume is skinnable...I have no idea how to do such a thing though. I have an evo so the res would be the same etc etc.

man, this is by far the most unique theme I've seen yet. great job everybody.

 

[Curt941]

If paul skins it for 480x800 i'll redo it for 480x854 haha.

The one thing I can't figure out is how to get apps off of my phone to play around with.

I want to mess around with switch pro, but don't know how to get it off of my phone since i downloaded it through the market and it is on internal phone storage.

I've been using AppControl by CurveFish to make a backup of the apk. It saves them in a folder called "backups".

Hope this helps!

Sorry its just the regular moto droid 1. I do have "Auto-Fit-Items" checked. I think I found the problem. A few pages back someone posted photoshop templates for adding the text that I used. I didnt realize they where for the droid incredible. Which I believe has a different screen size.

You are correct that they are different resolutions. There are Photoshop templates for the resolution you need in the very first post of this thread: Android Phone 7 Theme - Page 1 - Post 1.

Scroll down to: Desktop Visualizer Widget Image Photoshop/GIMP Templates

Hope this helps!

Here you go: View attachment paulmz_Blue_480x800_Android7_GPS_OnOff_v2.1.0.apk

Seems to work okay... I think.

I will also be adding the GPS widget to the entire package link for DropBox:

awesome job, thanks!!

I tried to do my own tiles for everything, but some of these were already perfect, so I'm biting style:

​

My favorite part about this whole thing is that it got me to buy widget locker, and I found out that I can still have the htc animated weather on my screen without having to mount the stock clock widget. I've been looking for some way to do this forever


and now that I've seen those great 50's inspired widgets, I want to start scouring the interwebs for cool retro ads and start this whole process over again. wheee

Was thinking about making my own droid tiles but i have no patience to make them. If someone else wants to have a go here are the images i was working with.
