Transparent Nav Buttons - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible to have transparent navigation buttons with a third party launcher? I like how it looks on the stock launcher but the stock launcher is to laggy for me. I'd love to be able to have the same affect with a different launcher.
Thanks

Really biting my tongue here...... As a person that spends a fair amount of time reading through these forums I find that comment insulting. I just went through the last 12 pages in this forum looking for a similar question and I found 1, that 1 was not really answered.
I understand that it can be frustrating when the same questions appear over and over, but a comment like that does nothing to add to the conversation and makes people afraid to ask a question when they have them. That right there defeats the whole purpose of this particular forums which is to ask questions and get help.

Ease up on ur panties there slappy, there was a wink behind my comment, which means for the most part I was joking!!!

No worries. I just take a certain level of pride in my willingness to do my research before I break down and ask a question. Not a big deal.

Any way to use HTC widgets without Sense?

Yo,
Like many of you, I've noticed that the default android home program is faster than Sense. I miss having my clock and calendar widgets though.
Any way to get them onto default home without going back to sense?
Thanks
No. Search for alternatives.
I'd say thankyou, as I guess technically you answered my question, but there's no need to be blunt or rude about it. I searched this forum and others before I asked my question and asked it in a fairly polite way.
Basically, if you're going to take the time to write a reply, be civil or keep it to yourself.
I think just using another ROM that not using Sense... many of them you can find it here, in development forum.
Ah okay, so do some of the other roms (like Cyanogen etc) have HTC widgets included or did I just completely misunderstand what you said?
Cheers,
Jenan
Hi,
you can use HTC-widgets only with sense. As for the clock and calendar, take a look at beautiful widgets, I like it more than the one that comes with sense. For a calendar-widget, that looks quite as the one from HTC I bought launcher pro plus, the included calendar-widget looks nearly the same way.
Cheers man, I'll check those out. Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it

The question is asked over and over. Having said that, I didn't mean to come across as blunt as I did, I'm sorry.

That's fair enough. I just did a quick google to test it, and found that I'd have to dig through a few forums to find an answer. I think what it is is that people ask halfway through other, unrelated, threads, instead of opening a new one.

Just in case anybody's wondering or searching for this in the future, i've found the best method - for my purposes - of getting the benefits of the android homescreen and sense in one.
An older version of Fancy Widget I found on rapidshare is the only accurate replacement for the HTC flip clock, I believe it's version 1.2.5
Launcher Pro Plus paid edition has great Sense-like widgets that are actually faster and more responsive than the vanilla sense widgets. It's also hugely customisable and eye-bleedingly fast compared to Sense.
Hope that helps anyone who had the same problems as me
Sorry to say that there is a way better clock widget out there.. Take a look at "world forecast&clock"
It has weather animations as well..
This one is no doubt the one that comes closest to original HTC Sense clock

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...a55532c7d9a51eee6223a631#commitcomment-309301

Retweeted. I really don't care either way, but this guy is just being a pansy and trying to ruin it for the rest of us. I didn't even know that wallpaper was in there until this was brought up.

umm..does it really matter if they remove a wallpaper? its no big deal...reinstall it if you want it...I mean Ive installed plenty of roms that didnt have any wallpapers at all..just install new ones..its no big deal..
That said I'm not exactly familiar with this wallpaper in particular..but if Cyanogenmod's goal is to be another distribution of Android as Cyanogen hopes..and this wallpaper is offensive then it should be removed...
Can I have my 2 minutes back looking at this poorly titled thread?
I don't see what's so offensive about the wallpaper, everyone already knew soccer was a girls' sport.
Lol it takes 15 seconds to change your wallpaper what more needs to be said

if its such a big deal to them than why not just delete the image and move on? No need to remove it from the zip files. If you don't like it that much than delete it after installation

If you're going to be using your tab for any length of time, don't you think you should learn how to make your own button themes at the very least. You have the best resources (XDA) at your fingertips (literally). Learn to use the search function.
Then you won't have to whine about not having any.
Themed buttons take all of ten minutes to make....at the most!
Wow man what is your deal for the last couple of post I've done you have been a jerk! I understand you may have a better skill set then me, but doesnt mean you can just put ppl down I do not know how to make my own themes and with a new baby its hard to just read n search all the time so yea I'm gonna ask some questions! Don't think I haven't seen your work, I do like what you have done in our forums all your input has helped me & others but being rude to ppl F.Y.I. doesn't make you look so sweet. Plus ppl like you make it hard cuz no one want to be ridiculed for asking a question.
And to the other poster I have finally got Thor to work with everything for somereason my tab won't play Gameloft apk files unless they send me new one that was the reason for me not using thors rom in the 1st place

intent and perception.
If you perceived my post to be rude, that is YOUR perception, not my intent. I may be blunt, but my post was true. I see all your posts, most of which could be fixed merely by reading, and then doing, instead of whining. It's not a "skill set", once again, it's "reading and doing". For the time it's taken you to post all of your "whining" (when you have a new baby) you could have had it figured out by simply reading other posts.
If you perceive my posts as being anything but helpful, look within instead of whining yet again.
OK point taken and I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. Sometimes this tab frustrates me lol I didn't mean to take it out on ya man.

Lol. 'No knowledge'. You want to know why I don't publish a ROM? Because there are better outside. We don't need thousands of ROMs.
So you don't understand what people are saying....I never asked you to create one....read the question in the post....you really know what rom is ???? That would be the wonder ...you just dont know anything about but just come here for trolling thats all.....

he is in fact very knowledgeable, but he, like me, doesn't like people posting the same question in multiple threads
Could a moderator move the question to the thread it's supposed to be on the delete this one. Easy to find what you need.
before denouncing a person by saying that person has no knowledge, you should maybe take a minute to look through some posts of that person. if you had done this, you would've known that both dark_knight and slappy are definitely knowledgeable.
but anyway, me too would like to see this moved and cleaned or even better deleted.

Tip: your lockscreen can also have a live wallpaper!

I've had my S3 since the launch date and I've only discovered this feature yesterday. While looking at some settings, the help text said "you can't have this feature enabled if you have a live wallpaper set on your lockscreen". I was puzzled since I thought you can't put a live wallpaper on your lockscreen.
If you press and hold the home screen it will give you an option for "Set wallpaper for" and then "Home screen, Lock screen, and Home + Lockscreen". If you tap on "Lockscreen", it will give you "Gallery" and "Wallpapers" (and possibly some other app), but not "Live wallpapers".
However, if you go to Settings > Wallpaper > Home and Lockscreens, you can pick a live wallpaper for the lockscreen as well. I only need to figure out how to have a different live wallpaper for the lockscreen and for the homescreen.
ninja edit: wow, just figured out that if you tap on "home + lockscreen" when holding finger on the home screen, it gives you the same option. Now I feel dumb.
:good: I feel dumber because I actually read that
Useless thread ?

Totally agree.....and we all endured this "right of passage"......and we all know the difference between a bit of gentle teasing and being offensive....I would also add that a bit of fun mixed in with the important stuff does actually help build a sense of community, and from that an atmosphere of "all being in it together" emerges where people really start enjoying helping each other.....but the gauntlet, nevertheless, must be run

It's not that we are rude... XDA was never about servicing or supporting noobs.. it was never about end users coming to ask people how to do normal tasks. XDA is not a personal help desk. XDA was made for DEVELOPERS to come and collaborate together. It's pretty sad that people have become so entitled to think XDA is a community where you can demand things, ask stupid questions, and expect people to solve your issues for you. XDA was not created like that and honestly we should all be super rude to the people that really dont belong here so they leave.
You want a more noob friendly place, try android central forums or other end user forums... not developer forums. And this is just a general comment not directed at anyone in particular just in general XDA has gone way down hill and it's 100% because of all the noobs that have flocked here.
It's pathetic how lazy people are and expect others to do their work for them.
I've seen countless posts like:
Person A: "If you google it you'll find links"
Person B: "Can you post the links?"
Me to person B: "*****, what am I your personal google assistant?, go google that sh%t yourself you lazy ass"
What I really think they should do is create an XDA sister site called XDA-EndUserNoobSupport.com
I can honestly see why the more seasoned guys leave xda for a site like rootzwiki which still has noobs but a far number less..
The whole "well that's what xda is for" mentality is WRONG. WE ARE NOT HERE TO SERVE ANYONE OR HELP ANYONE! We choose to, but it's not OUR JOB to. the way some people make requests on devs sounds like a boss giving an employee things to do..

This is a community, if you follow the rules, you can ask anything (in the correct way), but others users aren't obliged to reply or make anything. If you doesn't want to to help out anyone, just ignore the thread and the post will get to last page ASAP.
If your mother didn't taught you, politeness is a good move what everyone should follow. I'll not continue to discuss it here, feel free to PM.

Quoting as bla bla, addressing someone's parental situation and in the mean time venting your view on the subject does not make you right or more polite. Shame on you.
I don't care if this place is full of Einstein wanabes, if someone comes here asking for help, you act nicely and redirect him to the apropiate place and not act like some self entitled ass&$ole because you know a few lines of code or like to flash your phone every week and think you are l337.
Jesus Christ, what is this place? Are all forum moderators like this?
I am pretty sure all those advertisement banners I see on the main page don't care if the clicks come from n00bs or l337 coders and neither do the people who actualy put money in to this site... my god, I ave like 15 posts on this website cos I only read, I rarely post but this sht makes me go crazy, self entitled mods here.... my god
