OT question. Who ever uses the weather widget? I mean surely its just as quick to look outside the window or see if your feet are dry or wet. Ive never understood the point of them.

I use a combined clock and weather widget so that I can immediately access the forecast for Glos. airport as most forecasts are given from the other side of the hills at Little Rissington, which bears no resemblance to the weather here. See screenshots.

not sharing with us all then????:dontknow:

Yes very mysterious. I'm guessing its a saucy seaside postcard wallpaper that's too blue for a family forum such as this.

NEAT ROM LS8 + transparent status bar, blue circle battery, blue wi-fi icon, centred clock and configurable, blue, notification bar widgets.

Luckily for me... the LSJ version works on LS8. No more grovelling to Hawker...






for now! :(

Ironass, hawker has just posted a warning (in true Gandalf Stormcrow style), on the xda that it is not wise to flash LSJ mods on LS8... I am in the same boat as you though..

... and he is quite right to do so and I agree with him wholeheartedly. However, since he made the mod for me and as my screenshots demonstrate, this is the exception that proves the rule my little Gollum! ;)

Don't Know If Its Been My Usage Today(Quite A Bit Different From NormaL) But I Have Managed Almost 3.5 Hrs Screen Time(49% Of My Usage) And 30 Mins Of Calls.... Over A Period Of 12 Hrs, Taking Battery To 15%

This For Me Is Impressive, Especially As I'm Only Using Stock Kernel That Came With Neat Li, I Did Put Power Saving On, But Not Until 80%!!!!


As If You Needed It, But Thanks Again For unsurprisingly Another Great Job.

I Know Othe Kernels Are Working With Ls8, But Is It Advisable To Use Them Yet?

Also Does Anyone Have A List Of Things Missing From This, That Were Present In Lsj? I'm Assuming The Direct Dial(Just Lift Phone To Ear) Doesn't Work.

I Only Tried It Once, And Have Had A Busy Day(Baby Breach, Waters Broke 4Weeks4days Early, Becoming A Dad Monday If Nothing Else Changes!) So Never Got Doing It Again!

Look Forward To Seeing All Mods That Come...Hopefully With An Android Battery Icon In One(Hint Hint :p ) ;-)

Thanks Again Sale :)

I've applied my usual theme icons (wifi/signal/bluetooth) etc to the 23 toggle green circle mod earlier, but for blue circle, with blue toggles and centre clock.
No ironass, it does NOT have transparent status bar! (grovelling pending.....?)

This is for LS8

XWLS8_23Toggles_BlueCircle

I've only just noticed that flashlight is working on LS8 toggles! :)

It certainly wasn't working on LSJ. :(

A very useful feature for me. Particularly as it's Burns Night tonight and we may have to walk back from the pub.

I wish I had a transparent Status bar though... 2 x sets of rugby tickets + 10 pints of Guinness + Emelia Fox's number and, "Hawker is a babe magnet!", should have covered it.

(Top Tip: Hawker is a member of the Welsh equivalant of the Mafia... The Taffia. He once made me an offer I couldn't understand! :rofl:)

I shall keep my transparent statusbar away from all the hungry wolves.

or at least with a nice leak and some bara brith.
