I want to see what other peoples home screens look like, how do I take a screenshot of mine? Is there an application for that somewhere. I am working on compiling information for my website so I can easily get to it all. If people can point me to the best reference areas I would appreciate it.
Thanks
Please share your home screen with me

What do I need to do to get my clock large like your second picture.
These are a few variations I've used.
I'd love to see everyons home screens as well.. I have attached a program that takes them for all the people out there not knowing how to do it
Mine are also fairly simple & maybe a bit dark?
Won't show mine. Ohhh well
Here is my home screen, very simple and effective
Here is my Home Screen
Pretty basic, home plug, and the HTC Customizer, plus a wm6 theme I found online. My ode to the Florida Gators.
Let me know what you think......
I would like to see more too.
And thanks for the Screen capture program works like a charm.
HEre is mine
Let me know what you think. Its my ode to the Florida Gators. I use the standard HTC home plug and home customizer...

i would like to know that too. also, could you please list the used apps on your today screen
No problem, I have Spb PocketPlus installed with the bare minimum components for the today screen plug-in. Then on my first "Home" Page I have unlocked HTC Home (you have to do this to place it on a tabbed page of Spb) then under it is the meters that come with PocketPlus. Then on the next page I have rlToday with a skin I made and will attach to this post for any that would like to use it. Then the next tab is SBSH PocketWeather 2.0.5 that I slightly modified from the PhatPhinger skin you can find one there site. Then the next page is just a app launcher page that zips me to any of the apps that I use a lot. I have sense added a 5th page that has Windows Live and Windows Live Search plug-ins on it. The good thing is that even with all this loaded and running CRC's v12r6 6.1 ROM, I still have 42.58M Storage and 22.46M Program mem left. And I have a lot of other stuff installed as well.
Thanks for asking about my screens and if I can be of any other help just let me know.
thanks a lot!
one more question: how do you unlock HTC Home? i apologize if it's a stupid question, but i really don't know...
There is a CAB file on this forum somewhere that is HTC Home Customizer that lets you unlock it.

just replaced taskbar and bottom tabs. use crystal envelope on 'mail' tab also and a few other bits here and there which you cant see.
background goes through all the tabs as well, though annoyingly its slightly softer on the home tab. dont htink a fix has been found for this yet though!
So how's the iconset called ?

its really not very difficult if you search these forums.
the task bar for example, you'll need to install sdkcert cab (which i believe allows adjustments to rom files), then install the taskbar cab. thats all explained in the threads. the slider icons i used were again in a cab file.
generally anything thats compatable will tend to be explained well in the threads and installed in the same way as other 6.1 devices. be wary that this is a new phone though, so 100% compatable themes and the like arent going to be quite so plentyful as other phones!
ok no probs
thats why i have asked for a walk through from people who have done it on the TP2,
tried to alter the weather app the other night after doing a search couldnt get it to work then hamz22 did a walkthrough of what he did on a tp2 which was different to what i had been trying and it was spot on
i have sdk certs on so i will look for the task bar cab
thanks for the hlp

How'd you get the clock? I want to make an analogue clock like in HTC Touch 3G TouchFLO2D for TouchFLO3D 2.5/6.
just randomly checked the sony website, and there are two new panels...
Test CNN panel B10
and
Test Gokivo Navigation B10
http://www.sonyericsson.com/fun/wxh...ntentItemId=36424;ts=1247690304226;phoneId=-1
Don't know how long they've been up, so apologies if this has been posted already (i did quick search before posting and found nothing)
The Test CNN panel has a funky new 'roladex' style front page (3D), and it's generally smoother
The Gokivo is pretty slow to search for places considering I was on Wi-Fi connection, looks like a pretty good panel though, only had a quick look in the menu, and it's got traffic updates too. It's kinda like a cross between TomTom and Googlemaps. Didn't have time to test it, but here's the website link:
http://www.gokivo.com/
So maybe SE haven't quite given up on the xperia just yet....?
they have been out for quite some time, and you know what the good thing about WinMo is: even if developers stop making official stuff, XDA people still make apps that will keep ur phone hip and great for another 5 years
already gone
Found the panels also during a random check and immedatly download the Gokivo panel to try out.
too bad they already disappeared from the SE site. probalby not quite finished yet
I quickly tried Gokivo on my Xperia. it looks good but its very slow in searching and updating maps.
like mentioned in previous post it's in between TomTom and google maps but needs to be a lot faster to be useable.
I hope it gets back on their site soon!

Any chance you can share it? I went to the SE site and thought they might have hidden it from me because I'm not in Nth America or Europe - but now I see it was actually pulled.
well I was thinking.. since they have 2 more xperia phones coming out.. if the panel system isn't being ditched, then perhaps some would be reversely compatible?
just a thought.
Anybody download the cab and care to share the gokivo panel?

I hope everyone has been keeping up with the Point UI Home 2 development. These guys are coming up with some pretty creative stuff. The newest addition has been Point Sense Suite, a replication of the Point Sense UI found on the HTC Hero.

Thanks for posting this it looks great.
Compelling indeed.
Unfortunately the download is restricted.
I would like to test this app.
I didn't see any register information, any idea how we can access it? Legally of course!
Just download app and register with PointUI community to access all downloads. It's free to register, it's an online community... like XDA, sorta.
i saw the video but what realy turned me of was that you have to click the arros to move something???jeees..whats the use of a nice touch screen then..
Looks good but yeah youre right about the arrows thing
my god its realy different from the last point ui , it has much less bugs and i doesn't show conflict with spb3 panel (korean) you can adjust it any shape you like the new applets are perfectly designed its very smoth and doesn't have lag point sence and next gen add on are impressive the only bad things about it's costy and also like the previous point ui it needs to be out of panel modes to apply changes (themes , new software installed on it) oh by the way it takes about 10-12 sec for me to load it from the panels (with all the changes it was less than 6 but point sence add on theme makes it double) but for me it was worth it (sorry for my bad english )
nice wish someone can cook a rom with that interface woot woot!
Yes, I regretted purchasing the software ($20) but after this showed itself I began to feel a little bit more optimistic!
where can i download it? i just registered the pointui community but i cannot find any download link :|
EDIT: sorry i founded it out it's in the thread in this link -> http://community.pointui.com/topic/suiteto-come-pointsense-suite
EDIT AGAIN: now i have another problem i install the panel, the i install the point.sense.suite and the point.sense.home.screen cabs, i go into the panel, menu, customize, change theme and i select "pont sense" then i have a message wich tells me to close the panel and re-open it. after i do that the only thing i have is the default pointui home theme! what can i do? :S
Had the same problem!!
After you changed the theme, you'll have add the Pointui home applet..
you can do this by pressing the small icon next to the time and date in the upper right corner
thanx i got it
anyway has someone any kind of news on the release of the 2.0 version of this theme? thanks

I myself am not a programmer, but I do have a good idea for anyone that has some free time.
If someone could make an app that when the touch screen is tapped/pressed it makes a ripple or dot or some sort of signal of where the screen is tapped.
I've seen this in Microsoft PowerPoint slide shows...
Whenever i attempt to press a button and i am not hitting it i would like to know where i am actually pressing so i can adjust.
If this already exists please point me in the right direction.
Thanks

I wanna know where im tapping the screen, ive now also seen screen shots where people have an arrow cursor, that would also be pretty handy if anyone knows how to get that
so basically like Windows Vista's water ripple on Tablet PC
yes exactly
i'm kinda suprised it's not out there already. the palm pre has it and it's a nice feature. kinda reassuring. lets hope someone can pull it together...
yea i would see it as a staple in touch screen devices, but maybe it takes too much memory or it gets in the way? im not sure but i know i would definitely use it
I am all for this as well, it would be really nice to have.
That would be nice.

So if when u click on the screen it takes a screenshot and then does a ripple on that image...
I know Twolf has done ripples in flash, so if flash were an acceptable solution, that would be a method. Have to take more screenshots and load em in to keep it updated..

- You can now add your own background picture, just place bg.jpg in this folder:
> For WM6 (not sure about WM5) the folder is /Application Data/Volatile/FlashRipple4
> For WM2003 the folder is /temp/FlashRipple4
If for some reason this is not the folder, run it once and search for a folder called FlashRipple4 with your Explorer application.
As always, sourcecode and EXE included in the zip, I also included a background image for testing.

So i don't know how this app exits, but if it could output the coordinates to the registry or a return argument i could at least click on the today screen with them in Mortscript.
I assume BBonz is already half done with the app anyways...
I've been trying to figure out if this is possible from a coding perspective... It seems that (at least with the .net compact framework) that there's no way to hook screen taps. A program like this would actually have to be a driver for the touch panel. The most similar thing anyone has done is TouchResponse. Unfortunately, the author hasn't been online since November...so I can't ask for details on how it was done.
If anyone can help figure out how to create a program, service or driver that can globally hook screen taps and return coordinates...I can probably write this.
Hi xawen,
"If anyone can help figure out how to create a program, service or driver that can globally hook screen taps and return coordinates...I can probably write this."
You can hook all touch events via the PenTrac.dll approach. Have a look at Scilors Multitouch DLL thread. There I explained the approach and posted the sourcecode...
hm, but this is only an approach for the HD2's touch.dll. Not for all Win 6.5 smartphones...
HD2 is good enough for me
no but seriously, tried doing some (very little) research but came up with nothing

Hi Guys,
I recently saw a homescreen posted in the homescreen forum for the HTC One M8 that I really just loved. I tried contacting the person who created it, but he hasn't quite replied and Im unsure if he will.
I don't mean to intentionally rip him off, but I just love the way it looks and how clean it is that I wish to have it on my phone. However I have no clue how to do this. I figured the best and easiest way was to ask him about it directly, or even ask in the forum itself. But it seems as though its been skimmed over and no one has replied, so I hope you don't mind me creating a new thread just for it.
He gives the zooper widgets for the top and bottom bars, which i downloaded, he gives the list of apps used. But me being a fairly new techy, I have no idea what to do. I can get all these apps, its just a matter of using them correctly.
I figured that maybe some of you guys knew what to do? Maybe help me on my way?

Also is a root required? As I currently havent got mine rooted, and I'm not sure if I should!
Cheers,
Get all the apps he listed. He's also using custom icons, looks like they're Cyrcle (in the store). Then, simply add widgets. Honestly, that set up looks like it took him a while. I'd download the launcher called Buzz Launcher, since there are many ones just like that in the community downloads
As it's fun to find out about and doing these changes all by yourself I'll give you only some additional information for success:
'Coming from N5' implements, he is running the GPE version for this device (any AOSP/AOKP rom should do as well - as a sense rom might behave different under some circumstances)
To change screen density you have to edit /system/build.prop by finding the line ro.sf.lcd_density=480 and change its value to 400. Reboot...
This set of icons always has to do sth with the word circles - a proper search might bring you here.
Remove everything from screen, check nova settings and now start playing around initially with zooper widgets and the rest of his tools.
The result should be this screen. Have fun! :laugh:
---- edit
Oooops - forgot the wallpaper. TinyEye reverse search will bring you here.
One more thing: Without root you won't be able to edit build prop. Remember: No root - no fun.
Looks to me like he's using themer.
Looks like a lot of work done using UCCW and a custom launcher such as ssLauncher to open up the whole screen
Anybody knows the white icon pack being used here?
Just download Themer from Google Play, there's dozens of themes many like this too.
