Circle bat with 5 bar signal

Hey just thought I'd share this incase there is anyone out there like me who really likes the circle battery indicator but also really liked the 5 bar signal indicator aswell...all I did was pull the
Circle bat from Frankencat here:
viewtopic.php?f=27&t=684
and replace the battery icons from jjohns63 in here:
viewtopic.php?f=27&t=687
all credit goes to them for their work, all I did was swap the one for the other.

Ok so I dont have a lot of time to redo the colors but I've had several requests for the colors to be tweaked (the blue to be more inline with the Nero remix blue) or the Green
any votes on specific colors?
I'm not making any promises but depending on what people want I'll see what I can do

wow so no opinions on colors eh?

I have Nero v3 aswell and I was hoping to find a smooth all blue circular battery. Is this close to what your developing?

Can this be used on Nero v4.1?

This is a segmented circle battery with differing colors depending on battery and battery % displayed in the middle of the battery. also it changes the 4 signal bar to a 5 signal bar

Id love a green setup if you could

Working on this, but in the middle of moving so haven't had much time
OP updated with Screen Shot

btw quick update this does with with bionix v1.2

This is a great mod which which works just fine with TW Bionix V 1.2. I wonder why Team Whiskey or the creator of Slightly Better Gingerbread (SBG) do not incorporate this battery mod as it is infinitely more readable?
Are there any reports of unreliability?

I've had no reports of Unreliability.
I do want to mention though that if you do use it on Bionix V1.2 it will revert the "H" icon back to "3g"

Warning I have serious suspicions that this will NOT work with Bionix 1.2.1 (due to the new Lock screen/changes to the Framwork.res)
I've been working on this but things are still crazy busy...and I've needed to spend more time with the family.

Sorry, but shouldn't this thread be in themes and apps?

No Tuch Wiz 4 - 2.3.3 update coming next month

i had talk with a guy working in samsung he told me that there is no tuchwiz 4 for galaxy s and update is expected in april ( In europe)
Same funcations as I9000XWJV1 with bug fix

Damn, again a "had talk with a guy working in samsung he told me that" thread. Again a waste of time ;s

Well i believe we will get 2.3 final when there ready and not a moment before
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

too bad, would really love touch wizz 4.0
i don't like the icons in touchwizz 3.0, they are to big

as tw 4 is the only real benefit of the s2 i 'd really wonder if samsung was so stupid to give it to the galaxy s users.
i'd probably fire the responsible manager as sammy marketing chief if that actually happens as user i hope for tw4 of course, cant be worse than tw3 or cm as it is atm.

I would like to try TouchWiz 4. The YouTube videos of the SGS2 seems to be very nice. TouchWiz 3 was great, but has some problems, like the homescreen is left and not in the middle.

We wont get tw4 as we are only single prossesor and that will be reason and all these mates at samsung stories starting to get boaring only fact is beta out and final will be realesed when they decide to .be content with what we have amd thats the number 1 mobile on planet that initself should suffice but we want gingerbread are we ever going to be satisfied i dout it

That's a fact. However, I'm sure TW4 will be ported by someone someday. Hopefully.

For that you could try gtg465x's modded touchwiz 3. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=822523. It has middle homescreen, adds alphabetical order of app drawer and a nice 5 columns fixed apps on the bottom. You only need a rooted device and works on stock ROMs

Are people realy taking this kinda post seriously?

Can we have an "Anti-Thanks" or "Kick" button, please?

Well i do also know around 100 people at the nordic samsung support and they have no clue when 2.3 will be out but as they say seeing that 2.2.1 did just get released again i wont expect it before the nexus s are on 2.4 lool... or like this... around summer time.

WHAT THE... hell! And what about far superior hardware? Does this not count at all?

bah..tw3 or 4 are slowly and heavy ,,realy i prefer cyanogenmod..

I hear that the 2.3 will come out before Milestone 2.2.
p.s. I just a angry mob just switch from MS to I9000

Still no Gingerbread/beard so I guess we'll just have to wait until end of March/beginning of April which is just around the corner. =)

A guy at work told me that his cousin's wife works at Samsung somwhere. She said that 2.3 will in fact have touchwiz 5.

There will be people who don't like TWlauncher, but it's just a matter of haters gonna' hate. Besides, there will probably be a lot more people complaining if things were drasticaly changed.

App opening animations. You know, like the ones ported from ICS to GB

In previous alpha builds the gallery would freeze up on me viewing pics and videos. Do you see any lagging or have any weird force closes yet?

What's horizontal swiping like?
The LPB kernel on CM9 works great, with the exception of a much longer swipe being required to go from screen to screen.
Edit: should add the GPS module works as it should on LPB as well.

Thanks a lot for saving my work. Please update it with more points, it will help us all.

No, gallery very smooth. And I have lots of pics.

Android Concept: Dual screen

Hey!
I thought of a concept that will be hard to achieve, but awesome if it works.
This is it: The OS acts as if there are two screens that you can control independently. This way you can do things like editing a file while looking thing up on the internet. I realize this probably would not work, and in terms of technology I'm kind of a noob, but this is just an idea that would be cool and not actually anything I am working on.

I know of the Sony Tablet P, but I meant that it would be something that any Android phone with enough power could use. But thanks anyway!

If you split the screen in two, don't you think the screens would be way too small anyway? I mean it is a good idea, but who really does anything majorly needing that on their phone?

Maybe if you got the Kyocera Echo's source you could trick the display into doing it
http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/13/kyocera-echo-review/
But it wouldn't be practical on a phone, maybe on a tablet

OP, I think its a great idea!
You would have two 6.25 cm (2.5") 427x480 (or 480 minus a few pixel rows for the status bar) app windows.
It probably could be implemented, but I doubt it will

It would work for the window you were accessing, I presume.

You could press the menu then swipe left or right.

Or press menu and drop-down bars appear then swipe down which one you want.

Or perhaps you can make it so it opens for the "screen" you used last.

This is just for multitasking though. The DS was a good idea, but the real innovation was the touch screen - not the two screens.

This might or might not be useful. I thought of it because to me it seems useful when looking things up or something. And yes, the screens might be small. But I do not think they will be too small.

There's.a Nokia dual screen check it on youtube I def was not impressed
Sent from my R800a using XDA App

I would find this useful because you can have your music player on the left/bottom of the screen, and have any other app on the other half of the screen. That way you wont have to change constantly between apps so in other words it is great for multitasking.

Imigine that you can swipe the bar between the two apps to make one bigger or smaller... that would be nice...
EDIT: Heard about Cornerstone? It does something very similar:

before the update i couldnt even open the app without it crashing now it opens at the led works fine till i turn the screen off and back on or put the volume up to high

WIth the update the 'Recently Played', 'Most Played' and 'Newly Added' are back
The Played song have a bold effect in the playlist, the played playlist too
And there's a new easy way to open a menu for every song, before u need to tap for a few seconds the song, now u can tap the arrow in the right corner to open the menu, also with album/artist (dunno if u can do that in album/artist before)
And I'm not sure, but I think LED eff works a little better, nor good enough as 4.1, but maybe is not Walkman related, because the light beat eff is not in walkman app, is in Settings>Display

I don't know why you all use the flickering led visualization. I thought the Walkman app is for listening music and not for watching "psychedelic colors". It's a not needed feature.

Dude, the LED effects is the main reason why the SP stands "peculiarly" out with the rest of the Xperias with the LED strip design. You could say its just superflous but too others (including me), its a novelty function of the device itself...and to lose it after doing an update is just unacceptable. I'm hoping that this functionality is restored on the coming update (FIX as others call it) of the .266 FW.
