[Q] digital clock > suggestion/coop - Android Software Development

i currently have some graphics (png24 transp.) I created for for a digital clock widget... (224x110)
it should provide some basic informations like time (24h), battery % and a button heading to android settings (maybe customizable)
is there any guide for a beginner or someone who wants to cooperate?

[Q] How to get info

I am currently developing a live wallpaper (which is almost complete) but I only have an analog clock at the center of the wallpaper. I was wanting to also be able to replace the clock with weather icons, but I don't know how to obtain weather information (or any at all, for that matter) from a source and convert it to images. Does anyone know how to do this? Here is a pic of the live wallpaper: the arcs rotate around the clock (which is a built-in widget) at different rates and in different directions. What do you think?

So I've had quite a few people point out that the padding does not follow Material guidelines (which is 16dp).. Although I do agree that it needs spaced over a little more, but I'm not sure how I feel about 16dp yet (but it is growing on me the more I see it). Below is a screenshot of the padding adjusted to follow material guidelines..thoughts?

Looking between the current setup and the 16dp I personally prefer the 16dp
I'll have an update tomorrow with more UI improvements and small bug fixes. This will probably be the last update for a week or so, at least until I can get more of the important stuff done (ie pull to refresh..etc), I dont like having a bunch of small releases back to back to back, like I have been doing these last couple of days lol. But I want to get this next release out soon because it puts things more inline with Material guidelines.

Tbh as an end user I personally prefer having larger releases with more content unless it is just a bug fix release take your time to make a stellar product.
UPDATE:
v1.2
- Fix issue when no states file found
- Adjust padding to match Material guidelines
- Rearrange home_layout and fix xml formatting
- Move 'Total State Time' above 'Unused CPU States'
This will probably be the last update for a week or two, at least until im able to get more of the important stuff done (ie pull to refresh..etc), sorry for all the updates back-to-back.
Great man, thanks
I might take up the offer on the icon. Hello, existz, it's nice to see you again; back from the DHD days.

I have made a similar app before and has more functionalityy than this
I Just recently updated it with material design )
If you want to save some time you can update that one
https://www.dropbox.com/s/gmu3y80gynd1t4y/Cpu_States_2.0.0b199.apk?dl=0
If you want the source please PM me )
@existz
Do you mind changing that the app requires a touchscreen there are devices that do not have touchscreen such as TV based devices
From developer.android.com for devices that use android.hardware.faketouch
"Note: Because applications require the android.hardware.touchscreen feature by default, if you want your application to be available to devices that provide a fake touch interface, you must also explicitly declare that a touch screen is not required by declaring <uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.touchscreen" android:required="false" />"
