Using it now on my x10. Im really enjoying it so far. Think I will keep it for a while.
Hmm not sure about it cant u change the live wallpaper? And end up with double lockscreens. Might have a go at editing the apk images dont like the icons

You cant change the live wallpapper But I think it looks good. Theres a issue with some widgets being cut (Does it with all beautiful home widgets) Dont have the issue with the 2 lock screens though.
Lol welli actually had 3 because im using flyscreen. Still prefer adw I think

I've tested it.
Here'sd the app : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=V44GIZEX
I like the black theme... but the lockscreen is laggy sometimes and the animation background freeze sometimes.
EDIT : Need to reboot once after the installation. Now there is no lag. I've also noticed a related post there : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=797660
Yes.
and this has been posted already yesterday, in the XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps.
tested it and I like it more than the default theme. But it is kind of difficult to unlock using just one hand. Its definitely something you can get used to but I kind of miss the dockng bar of adw launcher.

Sorry didnt notice the other topic. Though I only looked in this section.
Wait, I thought this was a worldwide thing?
Well, way to go, SE Japan!

It's not that difficult, actually...
You'lll just have to drag te blob upwards. Don't have to touch the lock icon.
But the thing that I don't like about it is that I can't change wallpapers. I like the screen lock part, but I wanna use my own wallpaper =/
its the start maybe in the next version it will have the possibility to change wallpapers and other settings
I like the lock screen but I don't see myself using the launcher much... it cuts many widgets off... and I love my widgets
i like this lay out
cool stuff
But the lock screen lags, so i'm turning it off for now.
so, the lock screen can by used separately?
The best part about this launcher is if you are in the Application Drawer, click the little wrench in the right corner, and you can uninstall programs right there. Awesome.
I wonder if default lockscreen app can be overwritten directly in the file system...
perhaps this way would prevent old lockscreen "flashing"
ambient time
who uses it? if so is it draining your battery way too fast?
I've seen on mine that even when charging it the battery is being drained
thanks for the comments
Regards battery draining, no.

this is awesome but idk why when charging my phone and using this them the battery seems to be drained faster instead of charging
anyone has the same problem?
For me, so far ok. Not much difference and I have turn off the ambient time screen lock.
But notice that it will slow down a bit when you finish a call as it will load the ambient time home screen for a while without the icons then go back to lock screen.

Something I did from scratch. Icons are from dreamflye (or how ever its spelled). I was inspired by his dock, I liked it but it didn't fit what I was going for. So I did my own. I've been toying with releasing it.

Yeah dude...you should release it. If noone else uses it...I sure will!

PM me your contact info and your color preference and I will send it to you. I can't really send the icons yet because they are not my work, but I will be doing some of my own in the future (text icons are easy). I can maybe do a small request of icons if you let me know.
I am working on getting the some variations done before I release it (Tab on left, right, or center). I kind of want to release a bunch of variations so people can pick what they like. And I probably need to do some icons (at least the basics).
droid 2, epic 2.5, modified stock theme
Hey faceless, you wanna' post your dock icons? I like the extended right tab a lot (and I'm also too lazy to make my own unless I really have to )
Anyone else have alot of lag when you open/scroll in the app drawer? I got alot of lagg and it doesn't look very nice. Anyone got this and found a solution?
I only have this problem after I updated to 2.1 like 3 weeks ago.
Yes i also have the same problem but that is only when using live wallpapers. Switch to normal one and see if it still lags.

Hey thanks that worked. What a stupid add-on to use Live Wallpapers if you can't use them properly.
Try launcher pro (free in the market) its much more stable and has tons of options! Pretty much everything is customisable...
You might have a lot of applications running on the background. Check the running application page in the settings. When I restart my phone I always go there first and shut down what I don't use, like the face recognition, etc...
Yea just turned off live wallpaper and no more lag on menu screen thanks just wish there was a way 2 live wallpaper on am not have that lag there

Doom LW is the one that gives me less lag in drawer, all the others give me a lot of lag in the drawer, a shame we don't have a good implementation for the gpu or the thing that give us that crap performance.
I get lag using the stock launcher and Launcher Pro, but not with ADW.
That's even with a live wallpaper, and I have ADW set to a transparent drawer so I see the live wallpaper there too.
I just bought the widget locker app from the market...BEST 2 DOLLARS EVER SPENT!!! You would not believe the features this app has. Rotary lockscreen, iphone lockscreen, widgets and shortcuts on your lockscreen. And, my favorite part, NO HAPTIC FEEDBACK ON THE SLIDER!!! I would definitly recomend this app
*I attached a screenshot. The second shot has the iphone slider. Third is sense pull-down
I actually just got this app this weekend so im fairly new to it. How'd you get all those different sliders like rotary, iphone, and sense.
Open WidgetLocker settings then check under 'Look & Feel' > 'Sliders & Layout'.

Cool thanks!
I like the app but the couldn't get the security pattern to work with it. It was either a double lockscreen with a pattern, or no pattern at all. If they had that working I'd buy it again
Meh. Its ok. Not quite the best two bucks I ever spent. Its a little slow starting and doesn't actually replace the stock lock screen so much as cover over it. When u wake the phone u see a flash of the stock slider before widget locker takes over. Petty, but that annoys me. Using unlock patterns with it is also flakey. I do like the app, but in its current state its more the quality of a free app. Hopefully they continue to dev and provide some updates. If not, I don't figure ill be using it long.
That about sums it up. Neat app, needs work. If you have 2 bucks to spare, give it a try.

Hmmm, to bad. The settings are really touchy and you definitly dont have it right if your seeing the stock lockscreen when you wake the phone. To bad people put negative feedback out there when they dont even know how it works, see it all the time with apps in the market

I get same thing, the app can't open itself fast enough all the time to cover up the default lock screen. It is a cool app but not worth 2 dollars when there are so many apps out there that offer more for less.
No free app I know of let's you customize sliders and put widgets and shortcuts on the lock screen. You can bypass the 5 second transition from stock lock screen to widget locker in the settings.
Not meaning to sound negative. It is a cool app. I just expect a paid app to be a bit more refined. Less buggy, let's say. I will continue using and playing with it for a while.

some reboots when unlocking, and sometimes the stock lock screen appears before widget locker. I have changed the settings both using root bypass and home helper. Both of those options alleviate the issue, but do not fix it entirely.
Hi,
I would like to have a simple app that makes it possible to use a wallpaper of choice. I know i can use apps like WidgetLocker, but that's quite overkill when all i want is to use a different wallpaper then the one on my homescreen.
How difficult and time consuming would it be to make an app like this?

No, i'm not using password/gesture on my lockscreen. All i want is to use one wallpaper on the lockscreen, and one on my homescreen, like Smokeey says. That's all

(Dev of WidgetLocker)
I don't have an answer to your question. But I have technical information on why such an app doesn't exist and how it possibly could be done.
At the app level, rather than rom level, the only way I can think of to do this without replacing the lock screen, and with the wallpaper behind (rather than on top of) the lock screen, would be for the app to change the system wallpaper when the stock lock screen starts and to change it back on USER_PRESENT.
I don't know how fast a wallpaper change can be done and this might cause annoying visual effects during the change, especially since most of the time the user is unlocking to the Launcher, so the switch would have to happen on screen. It could be annoying if the switch didn't happen until after unlock, also annoying, but maybe less so, if it happened before the lock screen disappeared.
Many thanks for your reply! I have WidgetLocker, but not using it right now, but can you tell us if you plan to release an update with theming support in the near future?
Thanks in advance.

ADW EX has been updated today with a lot of fixes and options for Tablets including having the dock on the bottom in landscape and many more! There are tons of fixes for Honeycomb tablets especially for 10" screens. If you are an ADW EX user, but found it too buggy before, it night be good for you now! You can also set the secondary dock as the default which has scrolling like launcher pro.

im new to this, love the speed of the scrolling screen when i had a quick play. but looking for advice
i want a clean home screen with none of the + signs, adecent weather /time/date widget and app shortcuts same size as stock
what are people using for this sort of things decent add on recomendations would be great
How to change apperiance of main black dock? I can change only bar with 5 blank spots..not this bar for tablets.. Any ideas?
My new homescreen
Ok, now that looks clean. I love not having those icons all over the screen. If this is from ADW, I'm tempted.
Only wish that we could put things all the way to the edge of the screen, with the dockbar. Can only do it without, and that's annoying too.
Is there a good way to set wallpapers with ADW? I keep getting a half black half wallpaper result.
Thanks in advance.
