Okay so like yeaah. This may sound stupid but here's what I'm thinking. Because there are so many UI's like the Blur from Motorola. Sense from HTC. Blaah blah blah, why not make a custom one. We can make it based off of what the people want. Honestly, I like Blur (Don't laugh at me!) So why not try to get t how we like it. I know everybody's going to want something different, but why not try? We can try to take different parts of different UIs, and put them together and make our own. I know it's lame and all, but think about it. Don't keep reading... pause for 5 seconds. Okay now think about it and stop reading. We can even make this UI use-able for Vanilla Android 2.1 and 1.6 (and even people on 1.5 [hahahaa]). And hey, maybe it'll be so good that the Swagger Jacker Windows Mobile users can Swagger Jack it from us. So what do you say, wanna give it a shot?
where do we start? im interested
Idk. I posted here to see if anyone who knew who to do it was interested and wanted to help. I think we should start Googling.
lol.. trolling is fun
Fosho it is =] I'm trollin on 22's.
But lets be honest, a custom UI like MotoBlur is just like a theme. You just falsh it over something and make it look different and add-on some more widgets and etc... Motoblur is just 1.6 with a custom UI. Not saying that I like it, but it's okay and I mean, what's different from MotoBlur and Android 1.5? Notification Bar, Widgets, More tabs on the bottom, different clock, and more Social Networing connections. How hard would that be to make. We already have our own Widgets. Fasttest I think was the first to make the amazing looking clock that is now used in SuperCSDIv4 Rex3MixCSDI has a Black Notification Bar. We can make some custom Icons. We could Theme ADW_Launcher and give the bottom two buttons some use like how on Sense, you can go to;
All Apps-Phone-Add Widgets
and on MotoBlur, you have;
Phone-All Apps- Contacts
Why not make our own. Give it some customization. Take some random peoples requests. All these UIs and stuff, their all (I think I'm almos 100% correct on this, think about it) Home Replacements. Like BetterCut, DxTop, Home++. They all chang everything and give you more widgets. With MotoBlur and Sense you get new Boot Screens. We can do that. Make everything look cool. We been doing that. Why not make it. Post it on Google.Code. Be everywhere. Everyone will be talking about us and how cool we are. Port it to all the cool devices. Other then a few apps and Modifications, Custom UIs are just Themes. Like Enoch, JesterDroid, etc...
I may not know too much about coding and things like that, but I have more than enough experience with graphics and such. I'm all for this idea so if you need any help designing or just ideas you can pm me or add me on gtalk: [email protected]
Yeaaah, that's what I was waiting for. I thought about the same thing not too long ago. My opinion is, that for maybe the biggest android community it shouldn't be a problem. So good luck
I'm interested in seeing what could be made up. There are a lot of great features from all of the different themes out there, and piecing them together could be awesome if done right. I think a design should be aimed at before you have a million people all willy-nilly trying to make them. We should design, then build, then post a how to, that way the rest of the community can make their own based off of a common idea.
Now can we get anyone up in here who know how to make widgets? WE NEED WIDGETS UP IN HERE!

Maybe you could ask Koxx he creates, very good widgets, with great functionality.
Thanks I'll PM him right away. This is going so well!
So any advancement in this?
I PM'd koxx, but he didn't say anything back yet. I'll wait. Until then, anyone know how to add the little tabs on the bottom, like how MotoBlur has Dialer/All Apps/Contacts, what do you guys think we should make it. Gimmie some opinions.
Re: [THINK TANK] Sippin' on Tea UI
ok kl. Im not sure on how to add buttons. maybe look at one of the launcher2 modifications where buttons were added.

That's a really good idea, I could ask one of those Devs. Do you know who made it? That's a really good idea I love you guy. As a bro.
Okay. Here are some links to some threads with customized buttons. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=645683 <-- link to helix launcher and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=630659&highlight=doc <-- link to launcher with buttons.
We'll be using the Launcher with Buttons. It's better becuase we can use only two buttons instead of 5. All we need to do is replace the Left and Right tabs, and make the Middle tab a different image so that the Launcher looks better. I think for the All Application Drawer, we could use the 2.1 rectangle. We could make it go like a straight line like the Espresso Launcher, but without the curved corners, ours is going to get all the way to the end of the screen. We could... give me some more ideas on what to put on the left and right tabs, what do you use most. For me it's Messaging and Brower.
Re: [THINK TANK] Sippin' on Tea UI
i think the left tab should be contacts, middle all apps, and right should be direct message. just like on GDE.

Taken into consideration, post will be saved for future refrence. Here's the thing, this is a CUSTOM UI. We are not trying to copy any ideas. But yeah I do text a lot so that'll probably be one of them. In fact, I contacted one of the people who makes Custom Launchers and asked him if he could make his a little different then it already s, so that people could choose what they want where. This is a Custom UI by the people, for the people.
Re: [THINK TANK] Custom UI *BY THE PEOPLE, FOR THE PEOPLE*
okay good. now we need to come up with a theme and a list of neccessary widgets needed.

Why are the new gingerbread ROMs (OMGB and Evervolv) themed and modified to hell and back? Why can't someone just import things (one by one) to build a stock vanilla gingerbread ROM, and then work from there? I don't want anything altered from the basic vanilla ROM but here we are, dealing with all these customizations and different themes already applied and apps thrown onto there (other than the basics like SU). I don't want any music app on my phone so WHY FORCE ME TO HAVE ONE? I don't want to only have to choose between 2 ROMs to enjoy gingerbread this early. This ultimately leads me having to alter things to GET IT BACK TO A VANILLA ROM.
Also, why must all themes have to be rainbow-eccentric and have no "flowing" colors? Most of the themes are just an eye-sore and make me think the "designer" is colorblind and leaves me to theming everything myself. No, the app doesn't look good if it has a STRONG RED next to a DEEP BLACK, with STRONG BLUE somewhere mixed in.
so, if you dont like whats being offered by the devs, step up and make your own ROM's. if you read through the threads, most users do like what is being offered and that is why they are so popular. personally i cant stand the vanilla android experiance and am currently rocking Nils Biz-sence rom...

This.
Why haven't you "imported things (one by one) to build a stock vanilla gingerbread ROM" if it's so easy? These devs are theming their ROMs to their (and other users') liking, and they are nice enough to post them here. Appreciate that for what it is.
I'd like a vanilla rom that I could customize myself, but I would prefer to have someone else do the work so I'll take what they give me.

I'm not saying it's easy, I can't do what the CM team has done, (because that's what they're doing; taking the CM fixes, applying them, and theming it to their liking) but why are the 2 only ROM dev's right now working on adding **** to a version of android that ISN'T already built for the Incredible? Why can't they make a vanilla ROM, AND THEN customize it to their liking?

what the hell are you talking about? have you even started up the gingerbread emu or searched screenshots of GB?
holy **** man, it is vanilla. that's how google released 2.3, with the black status and lime green/orange icons. use whatever launcher you want.
these are free ROMS from unpaid developers, who are porting the ROMs and allowing you to run them WAY BEFORE it would be available to you OTA.

The last build I tried, it said "WeDoDroid" instead of "Verizon Wireless" or even "T-CDMA". Also, the change you just mentioned, different kernals used, different music app, probably other things I can't remember.

ROM developing
step 1 - get a computer
step 2 - learn to spell "definitely"
step 3 - learn to program in java
step 4 - learn to use linux
step 5 - learn extensible markups and the android os
step 6 - cook a rom
step 7 - post it on xda and ask for donations for step 8
step 8 - buy a 1337 t-shirt and a case of red bull
almost there

I knew I shouldn't have posted here, it's like dealing with idiots. Most of you are missing my original point.
But to address you, I've put hours into making my own ROM so it's to my own liking, and no I'm not going to upload it to the forums or show you proof because I simply do not feel the need to prove something to anonymous forum users for satisfaction.

I am! I just wish that instead of giving us only 2 choices for gingerbread ROM, they'd start off with a basic vanilla one and then work from that, instead of customizing what they want before the ROM is even fully functioning.
Why is it not mandatory for people to post screen shots of their ROM, when submitting a new thread for people to try it?
I personally don't wanna waste time and hassle flashing a ROM to find out it's ugly and not well made.
You can spend hours, days, weeks building a ROM.. but can't take 3 seconds or less to take a screen shot?
Why should it be made mandatory? We all know what Sense ROMs look like. We all know what AOSP ROMs look like, we all know what Miui ROMs look like. If you cannot put two and two together to get four maybe you shouldn't be flashing ROMs. Screen Shots do very little to illustrate how well a ROM preforms. It just shows what it looks like. You don't look in the paper for a car and think "i want that car" without test driving it first. And you do not rely on other people test driving the car for you then reporting back to you.
I personally have no problems with them not offering screen shots for their ROMs. I'd rather download it and install it and test it for myself. After all it's easy for us to say what we like on your phone.
Because if the ROM is not themed (which will be stated) they all basically look the same. We all know what AOSP looks like, and we all know what Sense looks like. Why would you judge the ROM off of someone else's wallpaper?

So for new users who don't know where the sourcetree came from they wouldn't understand A,B,C,D,E rom's as they are all same so SS is required. But for people who does know the change log alone speaks louder than the UI. This is why most stick with pure CM7 (NB/RC/SR) based.

I understand where you are coming from. but though out time i'm sure any Android user has seen all of the different UI's. They might not know what they are named, but they know what they are, and have seen them. That's kinda the point i'm getting at. I'm not trying to sound like a jackwagon but someone doesn't need to hold their respective hands 24 / 7.
Self accountability and self responsibility i guess is a thing of the past.

And i completely agree with your judgment call on leaving vanilla just plain vanilla.
mmcblk said:
But you miss the point again. Most of those new roms now are all CM7 spin off and they honestly offer nothing new other than the Theme. This is not debate about UI as we know what it looks like but this is to shed light on the folks who puts a theme and declare it a rom. SS is needed because they have diff theme if it was plain vanilla they wouldn't exist now would it? Now I am not bashing any dev's but come on do we really want to go in that path.

I guess we are side stepping each others argument. We'd make good politicians . SS would provide a good insight to how the ROM is theme'd, and how it looks... And i'll give you that. But it will not do any justification on how well the ROM runs. How smooth it is or anything. My point still stands. Screens shots will not tell you how well a ROM is built it only tells you how it looks.
I agree with the OP, ss should be mandatory if you've done any form of custom graphical changes. While it wont depict the performance, it sure will give an idea on the appearance. Whether its food, cars, women & even roms, appearance is a deal breaker for me

This thread reminds me of trying to get my wife to pick out an adw theme...she was so fixated on what the wallpaper looked like in the sceen shots that it made her dislike some of the themes. There aren't many super themed out ROMs in our dev section, and the ones that are do have screen shots. Like I said, for the most part you are just going to get a picture of the wallpaper someone is using.
Hey so recently I had an idea that could get implemented in an AOSP rom. It would obviously need developed first and all of that good stuff as right now it is only a concept, but what if we, the members of XDA, made our own skin. HTC has Sense, Motorola has MotoBlur, and Samsung has TouchWiz, but what if we made something like HeroWare or something like that. Just an idea but it should be like very minimalistic, pretty much based off of adw launcher. Or another idea is what if we made a skin that looked like honeycomb and then just through it over CM7. I would not know how but we could make soft keys and make our own widgets, etc. LMK watcha think and if you'd be interested in trying to help me get this going.
Nope
®patience is a virtue©
I think the idea is good, but it would be more trouble than its worth to maintain, provide support for numerous devices, and really to be useful. I mean 3rd party launchers basically are "hacker" skins if you think about it.
I think its a creative concept and is possible but not very practical.
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
this would be asking way to much our development team is stretched pretty thin as it is, and that's what custom home launchers are for, and there's literally hundreds of them in the market.
Hmph, and all I asked for is a simple froyosense w/ espresso Rom port.

beautiful thought, and i commend you for that.. however, the dev scene in the hero world is rather lite at the moment.. so unless you have the skills to do it, bff's with a great dev, or just get really lucky; it probably wont happen.. plus like was mentioned cross device support would be nice.. you will need to try and get someone who would be willing to put the time into it.. that would be the key, and the hardest key to find.. there are a few devs left and one might take it up, it never hurts to ask.. just dont keep your hopes too high..

my pleasure.. i try to keep it positive, sometimes its hard around here.. hope it works out for you though, i may break out the hero, and flash it you get it going..
This is more a proof of concept i have been working on since yesterday. I love aosp roms but i hate the lockscreens, sense 3.0 is where its at. I stumbled upon a new lockscreen that may be ported into the cm7 roms soon. Its a honeycomb sytle lock. It is available in the OMFGB nightlies only.
I basically modded the framework.res with png's i found from the miui & widgetlocker sense 3.0 lockscreen themes. As you can see from my screenshots this looks very similar to the sense lockscreen. The only thing it will not have is the 4 shortcuts.
Now i need some testers and some modders to help me out in porting this from OMFGB to other aosp roms such as cm7 & liquid. I am a themer, not a coder. As you can see from my screenshots i cannot get the ring to recess at the bottom and when you go to unlock it cuts the top of the ring off. This is where i need help, i believe a resource file or xml in the framework needs to be modded, i cannot do this.
To me this has huge potential, we could possibly even port custom rings over like we have for sense roms.
*Credits go to whoever created this honeycomb lockscreen and to the makers of OMFGB.
Lets see what we can do with this guys. Pm me if you feel you can help finish off this mod.
http://imageshack.us/g/560/snap20110814101033.png/
Edit: I have attached two zips below. The sense_theme can be flashed via clockwork on OMFGB only to show you guys the work i have done. The sense3d zip is all the files i used to do the mod and the framework.res from OMFGB. feel free to use this to help get this lockscreen completed. So you know, i flashed a different style font to get the excact look of my screenshots, yours may look different depending on what fonts you use.
R2doesinc is now onboard to help finish what i started. He said he will include this in a future OMFGB nightly. But as we know alot of projects never get finished so if you feel you can help with this theme or use it in your aosp rom, get in contact with me. I definitely want to see this concept be completed.
reserved for whatever.

Definitely interested. Just went over to uber bamf and although very nice, to me AOSP is just smoother. But like you said, sense 3.0 lockscreen is amazing so I'm here as well to test out. Wish I could be of more assistance but I don't know how to code. hopefully this gets worked out.

i could make a black ring, we just need to find a way to make the ring recessed at the bottom and not cut off when unlocking. i doubt we will be able to make shortcuts as of now. i also love the look, we just need to get this ported to cm7 and or other aosp roms. right now it only works in OMFGB. hopefully the cm team will approve the honey lock into his nightlies, i know it has been submitted already.

Definitely interested. Just went over to uber bamf and although very nice, to me AOSP is just smoother. But like you said, sense 3.0 lockscreen is amazing so I'm here as well to test out. Wish I could be of more assistance but I don't know how to code. hopefully this gets worked out.

lol yeah, i have no idea how to mod xml's or resources. that's what i think need to be done to position the ring properly. best of all this works better than any 3rd party market app out there right now.
Heads up. potential for more tester coming your way... a link to the was created on Android Central

this was posted at rootzwiki as well. testers yes, i need them but i also need a devs help to edit the theme so the ring is positioned correctly. i hope we can get this to work on all aosp roms. as i said the potential for this is HUGE. i can see custom rings being ported over as well. it's like having the best of both worlds here while not taking away any elements from aosp.
Amazing. I don't normally run OMFGB so I can't use it on my AOSP rom right now, but I'll flash later in the day just to try it out.

i normally use liquid aosp but im switching to OMFGB for the time being to work on this.
to get this ported to all AOSP's would be awesome... no matter what ROM's im testing or trying, i always seem to come back to CM7.
Im going back to liquid until this can be ported over. i hope the cm team approves the lockscreen so i can theme it. if anybody wants to continue developing this to get the ring sorted out, pm me.
Hmm...400+ views and hardly no replies? Doesnt seem like alot of interest here.

I'm totally interested. Unfortunately all I can offer you is to be a tester.
Fix, I can test but cannot mod. I am running CM7

R2doesinc is now onboard. Im mobile right now. Ill update the thread tonight.
ive been talking to R2 and this will be available shortly in their nightly. he is also implementing the 4 shortcuts with a on & off type toggle so everyone can be happy. once this is complete i hope we can get the aosp devs to port it to their roms. the source will be available on the githubs. glad i started this and never thought it would actually take off.
