Where are all of the Android Skins?

I figured someone would have created some by now.

its kinda ugly in my opinion

I'd personally like to see one.

i dont think anyone cares.. I think its kinda ugly.. the phones ugly too..
the only cool thing is that you can move the icons anywhere you want.. other than that.. its meh..

why not judge the final product when it's done, not in the state it's currently in...

pff, already looks much better that any wm6 version i ever saw even with interfaces like mannilla 2d winterface pointui spb ms wad 3 ore anything like that!

Hey,
I would also like to see an Android Skin.
I like it, and its really nicer than WM, it looks like a fingerTouchOS.
Maybe we'll get a skin anytime.
greets doena

Cant be too hard to skin in Throttle Launcher, especially since the next version will support scrolling both vertically and horizontally and with support of panels and on screen object movement.

I don't think this will be easy in TL. Maybe HS++, probably WAD.

what i think was meant by the TL post is that the new version is going to have moveable widgets.
and honestly .. the way we do the skinning, application dev and hacking, and everything else is done around here..
we can do it.
the device thus far imo looks like a piece o chit!

the device is ugly and the skin itself is just a white topbar, a wallpaper and some icons, can be done with every app here.

Here is my skinned Android. Hope you like it!

egz whats the batt life on it?

I'd like to put here on snooze!

what i like to see now is some Android inspired apps.. i'm quite sick now of pseudo-iPhone apps (well, excluding A_Cs S2 lineup that is)..
how about an application such like the Android drop down notifications.. it's totally replace the bubble notification icon when you have more than 1 notification.. and it's easier to access than pressing that darn icon on the topbar..
it's pretty handy, if you ask me.. i hope someone develops something like that..
here's a video demo of what i am talking about..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy-YcGNyJds

I'm a big for on Android (I just ordered my G1 from T-Mobile), but I odn't think there's much to the user interface. The Standard interface can be completely customized so I'm sure we'll see quite a few variations once people actualy get their hands on it. Personally, I'd like to see a TouchFLO 3D type of interface on Andoid which will give access to a lot more information than simply having a desktop with a few widgets and icons on it.
If you're really interested in creating somehting like this, my suggestino would be to do it with Wisbar Advance Desktop. You can quite easily create the look, but it might feel a bit static since it's hard go get thing animated with it.

I believe this is a better Android Skin...!!!!

Better than to have just a simple skin of Android, would be to have the complete OS in our HTC devices!
That would be nice!hope someone is working on that
Cheers

Once they release the source to Android in October and more devices start coming out, I think Android is going to be hard to beat. I bet people will start skinning it right away. It has so much potential.

Almost all that android (the one in the first post ) does will be possible to do with next version of ThrottleLauncher:
- Scrolling footer.
- Widgets.
- Scrolling programs.
- Scrolling contacts.
I don't know if a miss something .
I plan to end a private beta during this week, and it the beta testing goes allright I plan to release it as "unstable build" publically so pleople can start messing with the new features .
I look forward an android skin too . When I'm ended developing this new release I'll gladly help anyone trying to develop a theme for throttle.

Port HTC HD Stock tab to Diamond

Hi,
Can someone port the STock tab to Diamond? Is it possible?

Doesn't this belong under "Diamond ROM Development"? Good idea, though, although I don't think it's possible... yet anyway

If someone creates a similar tab in functionality, then it belongs here, not in ROM development.

sounds good, hope someone can do it

Sounds good, but if you're from US, you're going to just an arrow going down, like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So just put that image as a tab, and you're all set...

Port HD stock tab to Diamond
This is not the place to discuss stock market ....
So can someone port stock tab to Diamond? or is there any resource to link to this request?

It would be a great thing to view my portfolio on this thing without having to log into E*Trade in Opera.
And to add to the stock discussion...stocks are just on sale right now...so calm down!

Seriously, what are you talking about? You obviously have no clue in history, especially, in this case, what the Great Depression (which originated in the USA) did to Europe.
There's nothing wrong with stating the obvious truth. If I made you uncomfortable because you choose to close your eyes instead of seeing the truth, well that's your problem.

This is not a forum for political comments.
BUT since you people started, it is AT LEAST lame to believe that US is what balances the planet. US can very well be what distracts the balance from time to time.

Yes, Hitler rose to power ONLY because of the Depression...
Of course he didn't. Massive oversimplification. It may have helped, but certainly wasn't the only, or probably even the main reason.
Also, yes the US has a massive bearing on the world at the moment, but China and Japan have grown in power massively recently, and with the world not in a state of post-War rebuilding, the situation is totally different.
I too would like a stock tab by the way.

OK everyone settle down. Let's focus. We all want this stock tab.
Currently, I'm writing my own local html files with links to http://stockcharts.com/avantgo/ charts.
I have been using this work-around for almost three years now and I'm really quite sick of it. I myself am willing to contribute monetarily towards porting this stock tab.

Is there no slight possibility HTC will bring it to the Diamond and Raphael in a subsequent ROM release?

sure there is
I expect the sliding dialer too

[WAD2] Windows7 Theme (Preview Release beta 0.2)

This is a preview of the WAD2 theme im working on called Windows7
-------------------------------------------------
Updated With beta files
PLEASE dont reply with this is incomplete or do this do that, the theme is not fully finished!
Enjoy it at your own will.
Common problems: Start menu items may need to be remapped (i made apps for my purpose, follow the procedure to make your own)
Lock device window shows for a few seconds when unlocking the device but dissappears after a few seconds.
This is not fully functioning nor is it usable for everyday use.
Copy Windows7 to Wisbar Directory and Windows_7 to root of 'Internal Storage'
-------------------------------------------------
My friend Bornotty has also been making a Windows 7 theme for QVGA, VGA and WQVGA
Head over to his thread at Lakeridge to see his preview.
please show him your support.
I wish him all the best!
-------------------------------------------------
The theme is going to function and look exactly like the Windows7 OS
VGA devices only​

Man thats freakin sweet!! Will it work for QVGA?

cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooollllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
cant wait for it.........
i hope it comes out wid vga/qvga/wvga.........
i request development for all.

That looks awesome….. Good work….

This is great stuff. Keep up the great work!

Man...i know my post will be useless...but if you'll release also a sqvga version...
...i'll marry you!!
One of the best themes i've ever seen!!

Fantastic. Great job. Keep on.

really nice work! looks very clean
only problem with this is that WAD is a rather old software and (to me) can't compete with the new UIs anymore that are currently around (spb3, SHBT MyHome, titanium, Touchflo, Iphone clones ...) It is such a hassle to customize someone else his theme on your device even with the theme import function. And it is not freeware...
And this looks really nice but I don't think it is that user friendly.
But don't get me wrong, I like what you have done with it, it's just not for me
keep up the good work

Looks great!!!
Like the Aero/Glass Effect
Any way you can tell us the minimum requirements needed to run it???

Thank you for the replies every one, much appreciated.
Sorry i didnt specify the resolution, will update first post now.
To clerify, this is for VGA devices only, although i may get a WQVGA if a friend is willing to convert, but no promises.

Thank you for you reply, WAD2 is completly customizable to your need. ok its not like touch flo or titanium but those were done by proper developers such as HTC and microsoft. WAD2 is maybe alittle old yes but updates are being brought out to improve funcionality and update user needs

Minimum requirements upto now is just a VGA device with Wisbar Advance Desktop 2 installed which can be found from link

I know, I have used WAD for quite a while, because I could cover up the ugly windows shell. but now WAD does not compete anymore with the scrolling in windows 6.5, the look and feel of 6.5, and the panels being created by people here.
But as I said that is just my opinion, I am pretty sure a lot of people will be really happy and will have a lot of fun with your wad theme

A new Manila version?

HTC is working on an update of his famous interface:​

That would be awesome! Hopefully as a VGA version too thistime, cuz the Diamond and Pro are everything else the "outdated"!!

It looks like a version to accompany the wm6.5 update for the Rhodium later this year.
Nice.

Probably it will be produced specially for future devices manufactured by HTC, which will have all (maybe) WVGA resolution...

Looking at the screenshots, it appears that they have moved on to developing exclusively for WVGA. For example the homescreen has the extra buttons at the bottom to launch favourites, on the TP/Diamond there is not enough room for these links to be visible all the time and you would have to scroll down to see them

Even in devices WVGA so, when there are several appointments displayed in calendar.​

They should make the clock smaller. The homescreen could be so much more efficient, and more customizable like SPB MS3. If you could combine those two you would have awesome software!

Those are similar to the screen-shots NRG posted a few days ago, but were quickly taken down!

Yes, very very similiar.
And kraize, you are horrible adding fuel to the new TF3D fire of unspeakable-ness!
*looks around suspiciously*
I think this might disappear soon , in fact, we all might disappear soon now!
*runs away*

I'm looking forward to the day HTC is getting the idea to put the alphabet on the right border of the MP3 Libary. Maybe in Manila V12 or V13... who kows!

It is real, it looks like TF2D more than TF3D.
NRGZ28 published a BETA 6.5 ROM for BlackStone last week with this new manila. But the day after he deleted all the screenshots and download links. I flashed it and used for an half hour, it was not ready for daily use yet. Main feature of new manila is that you can reach all the settings and customizations by manila.

ROM and the manila was little bit buggy, so I had deleted them.
Plus, I did not like this manila although it has many new good features, it was looking like having low resolution...

Double post. pls delete.

This is the best UI,why it's not being pursued?

I know many of you use touchflo 3D,with some SPB Mobile Shell.
But I absolutely ditch touchflo 3D first,it's not customizable,that's why I hate it so much,I need a smart UI (user interface) to allow me do whatever I like,for example,remove any icons from the desktop,and add any icons,links,shortcuts,widgets in any place of desktop.
And I will make the background of the desktop clean,crystal,open,sunshine,broad,bright....
This is the ideal UI I am looking for,just like the Window XP or Vista.
Touchflo 3D (or newer version HTC Sense) failed to bring all these amazing things.
Currently I am using SPB Mobile Shell 3.5, it's one million better than touchflo 3D,but it takes me too much time to customize it, for example,you need to remove all unnecessary default shortcuts,widgets from the desktop...in addtion,there are some features I dont think it's practical for users.
One day I saw eXPerience UI devoloped by digitalEXIPIDETION, I think this is the real UI I have been looking for,it's exactly like window XP, but unfortunately digitalEXIPIDETION seems to be closed,I only can download eXPerience for QVGA,nowhere we can find VGA or WVGA.
After painstaking search,I dont think anyone devoloping new version of eXPerience.
Why it's not being pursued? chased?
Does anyone know something about it? I am ready to pay USD50 for eXPerience that are working in HTC Pro2 (WM6.5 rom).

I agree with you on that. i think it(sence 2.1-2.5) should have better custom setting so we can make our ppc's how we want.

Very nice. Hopefully the actual WVGA version will be out soon.

Anyone knows WisBar Advance Desktop is ok for Pro2???

I think THIS is what you are looking for my friend.
Notice it's changed and will require a newer device, such as the HD2 or better to run it. It is 3D graphics accelerated.

Have you checked Infinity out?
http://forum.ageye.de/
It's brand new and still in ALPHA but already it's very usuable and because people can easily write widgets and skins for it, it will be more customizable than Sense and SPB Mobile Shell.

It's a way to do anything in the UI. You make your own UI. Many examples exist and you can make your own, including meters, shortcuts, clocks, agenda, calendar, contacts, etc. etc.
