I'm thinking this fella is not browsing this thread any more. I and others have asked what DOCK that is and I haven't seen any replies.

Thanks for that, had my son looking through the entire app store;-0 (kids are great) and he found it. There is a pay version and a free version. It's called AudioManager. The lock is Widgetlocker, it's a pay for widget. They both work great.

Good luck

Glad you found it. Unfortunantely, I don't have any kids to send on the chase to identify the dock.

.png is the right type, you must have placed them somewhere the phone cannot find. you can download astro file manager to browser files but i always just saved mine to the downloads folder and they show up in my gallery

I was refering to the clock, dial looking icon to the right of the clock icon, and the camera icon, where did those come from. I clicked on the link that was at the top of this page, and it takes me to a site but where do i actually get the icons, and how? Thanks a head of time!

Anyone using Launcher Pro has trouble with the 2nd dock icon works as a swipe while the other icons works if you press them?

On LauncherPro you can make all the dock items accessible by either press or swipe. I'm guessing that with item #2 you must have accidentally set it to work as swipe instead of press.

Press and hold the icon until the "Edit Dock Shortcut" pops up - you'll have the option to "change shortcut", "change icon", or "swipe gesture action".

Personally, I 'double up' my icons.

Pressing my phonebook icon pulls up my phonebook. Swiping it pulls up my contacts.
Pressing my sms icon pulls pulls up handcent (sms). Swiping it pulls up gmail.
Pressing my app launcher icon pulls up the app tray. Swiping it pulls up AppBrain.
Pressing my nav icon pulls up GPSTest. Swiping it pulls up Google Nav.
Pressing my browser icon pulls up Skyfire (browser). Swiping it pulls up my camera.

Some of these may only make sense to me, but they work for me. You could quite easily make your own 'combos' for ease and accessibility.

I like this as a screen. Though your link has similar droids, they are all looking off to the left. How do I get the one on your main screen?

Thanks, Tomween1

It would be very easy to edit my screen on photoshop and add a front facing droid, when i quickly made this screen i didn't notice he was off to the left and that the original one was straight, just copy + paste another droid on top =)

What wallpaper is this? And what are the swipe wigets? It looks wicked.

WidgetLocker from the market. Place widgets on home screen and have alternative swipe unlocks.

Are all of these features only for rooted phones?
Is it possible to get these two things on a non-rooted phone?

The phone icon is simple, you can just use bettercut or something comparable to make a custom icon on your home screen.

The battery icon you need to be rooted for.

Hmm...Using the Desktop Visualizer app, can't get a icon on the screen that routes a folder...Any way that's possible? I can only get it to open an application or something.

Umm..? I just need some way of changing a folder's icon.

kiwijunglist · Sep 5, 2010

use desktop visualizer or folder organizer (both free) to change folder icon.

The link in my post brings you to an image on deviantart that includes all the icons. To actually use them, you have to open up that image in photoshop, cut out each individual icon, save it as a png file, save it to your phone, and then use bettercut or desktop visualizer to place them on your home screen.

Thanks, Tomween1

I've only had mine for a couple of days. Upgraded from samsung eternity. So this is my first "smart phone". The customization is unreal. I'm sure it will change a lot in the coming weeks but this is what I have got so far.
