Yeah often I found jorte missing on reboot or even just randomly "problem loading widget" as if it had been forced to sd but it hadn't.

Eventually bought pure grid calendar which is great. But when I found a 3rd party ics theme pack for go widgets, I had to stray.


I mean, come on...

It's not that it looks like ics to me. It's that ics happens to look how I like things to look. I'd try this look even if ics didn't look like this.

Good thing is that because it does, lots of theming going on to make an overall look

Not rooted so the shots are via "ScreenshotIt" not the best quality but here you go. I'm still using Launcher Pro as I don't get the benefit of Go over LP :thinking:

Here are my shots:

Lockscreen - using Widget Locker with a 100% invisible lock slider on the screen, if you don't know where it is you ain't getting in to my phone lol One side of the slider unlock and the other opens the camera. The clock is SDS Clock Lite

Home - with Beautiful Widgets Home Weather, Extended Controls and Custom Icons in the dock. I've set swipe actions for each one too e.g. swiping the settings icon locks the screen with Widget Locker.

Left x 1 - with various SimiFolders as you can see. Status bar contains Battery Status (green far left) with Lookout Security/AV next to it. Each SimiFolder contains relevant apps/links etc as you can see from the mini menu of my most visited sites.

Left x 2 - with Mixzing Widget at the top and Audio Manager underneath (metallic skin)

Right x 1 - is simply Jorte Calendar Widget so I know where the hell I am or am supposed to be lol with System Info Widget at the bottom using the Eclair icons only theme.

Right x 2 - Is just for me to remember why I do a job that winds me up everyday, using Android Photo Widget for my girls.

It's kind of minimalist really, but that suites me.

I've got Aix weather, Taskos, My Allowance & Business Calendar widgets on some of my other home screens. Business Calendar works really well but the week view widget is a bit ugly & everything else I have has already been displayed here so I won't waste space.


If you use widget locker, my earth theme would go nice with that homescreen:

xda-developers - View Single Post - [THEMES] WidgetLocker Theme Collection ;)
