My custom theme

Middle Screen - handcent, apps, market, phone

App tray that pops up when apps icon is clicked

Right Screen - facebook, gallery, gmail, settings

Left Screen - task panel, calendar, music, browser

The apps icon is the only one that brings up a list, all other icons open up that app

digital clock widget

having a bit of an issue with it....the 1x2 and 1x4 widgets both look the same.

 

[daihl92]

the 1x2 is if you want your date to show as 1/18/2010 and the 1x4 is it you want you date to show as Monday, January 18

The calendar function stinks don't waste your time. Use Pure Grid Calendar for Pure Calendar.

Good advice. That's what I did. I added a layer with Pure Grid Calendar, and another one with Pure Calendar, for the agenda view. Thanks to the transparent skins, those widgets will go with any theme I will create.

However, they do not update. I have made a few modifications, like changing the color of the text, and selecting a new starting day of the week, and nothing happened. I rebooted the phone, just to see what would happen, and now, they won't even load.

I also have added Weather Widget donate to another screen, and it's the same thing: I get the Loading Data..." message, and nothing else.

The only way to get them back is to edit the theme. However, I suspect they will not update if I modify the settings.

I'll be happy to get any clue to resolve this.

The developer of SweeterHome has a private beta in testing that should resolve the problems you are having with the widgets updating. This is a known issue, one that will hopefully be fixed for all in the very near future.

That's good to hear.

I encountered another bug this morning. Everytime I select a contact from a contact bloc, I get a FC. I tried to delete, then create a new bloc, creating the bloc on a different screen, etc. nothing works.

While on the subject, The contact bloc could use a little more features IMHO. How about being able to select the type of contact displayed: normal, starred, one group in particular, etc. Also, adding the option to display the contact picture would be nice. That would make this "widget" a lot more useful.

Why not just do as I have and create a custom block, and add shortcuts to the contacts you want in that block. Then you would have pictures and the contacts that you want in that block.

I thought about doing that. However, It would be a lot simpler to just assign contact to a special group, HomeDisplay for example, and have them automatically added to the list instead of editing the object every time I want to add or remove a contact.

Even better would be to have the same kind of bloc, but for SMS. Just scroll through the list and select a name to open automatically the messaging app to send a SMS to that contact.

With the kind of customizing SweeterHome offers, it would be a killer feature.

My custom theme

Daihl92, that is a VERY nice theme. I am trying something similar, but I can't get the size of the icons quite right. Yours look sharp, though.

What pixel size are you using for the icons? What's the padding space?

Have you rebooted, or killed the Sweeter Home app? When I blow up icons, sometimes they look blurry .... but then they look crisp after I kill Sweeter Home and it restarts.

I find if you increase the size of a clear border it works better than padding. I use 128x128 pixel icons.

Icon blur is fixed team, it'll be in the next public build.

Getting a lot off of force closes for sweeter home .. any ideas?

If you get a force close, make sure you log a bug report afterwards - Menu > Report Bug.

The next release should clear up a lot of buggy behavior.

You need to make sure the Custom Tray is unlocked, and 'receive shortcuts' set to Yes.
