Has anyone found any good live panels?
It seems that hardly any widgets actually support being re-sized like Samsung showed in the demos. I can just drop it where it fits and that's that. I am wondering if anyone knows any useful live panels. Being able to re-size my FML or facebook widgets and have a nicer design to them would be fantastic
You may be expecting a little much considering that the 'resize' feature was just added to the version of Touch Whiz on the Galaxy S2 line. This means the widget developers will have to code for this new feature.

Hopefully this is in the right place to post, but I had to share this for those that never heard of this live wallpaper.
Its easy on the battery since there's not alot moving, and overall just a nice informative wallpaper to have.
There's a free and paid version 65cents? Paid version doesn't really offer to much more than the free one, besides choosing a background and different color fonts and making the font move. But at 65cents not a bad deal I suppose.
Its called WP Clock on the market.
i just love WP Clock..
May I ask if anyone knows what is the widget that looks like the wallpaper with the clock and the tine n stuff but its a widget instead of a wallpaper.

Is this what you're looking for?
Been using this for a full month by now. It's by far the most useful/pretties widget replacing wallpaper I've yet to use.
And for its price, it's a steal.
this thing rocks... LOVE IT!!!
just bought wp clock and i must say it looks fantastic. one thing abt it though, i don't like how its a wallpaper so every homescreen's filled with the thing. really need the space on other homescreens for other stuff. if only they could make this into a widget. typoclock looks similar but i love the data connection and battery info. i tried using multi live wallpaper to have multiple wallpapers simultaneously but it doesnt support using a live wallpaper and a normal one from the gallery. so i guess im stuck, or has anyone found a solution for this yet?

the developer is really good at taking and implementing suggestions... I asked for drop shadow, but he wasn't able to figure that out, so he did the outline so I set my text to white (40% opaque) and outline to black (4pt 80% opaque) and it's almost as good as drop shadow... definitely gives enough contrast to where you can read it no matter what your background is... tell you what, I would actually like the same thing, so I will request it as well, and maybe we'll get it twice as fast =)

deal. noob question though, where can i make my request? market?
after scouring youtube and finding nothing Im going to rely on XDA , anyone care to show off with video of their customisation, the S2 has no notification light, not a great launcher and a pretty janky looking lockscreen - otherwise seems a beast of a phone, would anyone care to show off? I would love to know if the very few shortcomings of the device software (and the led deficiency) can be fixed easily with third party software
pretty please?

sounds good but coming from a htc hero I love being able to glance at notification light when I enter my office again and know without waking the phone if i got anything new...
of course, you could show off the combo via some juicy 24fps streaming goodness ... ?
It's not a video but here are my screenshots

wow , that looks slick! I don't know the default lcd density for S2 but I assume that 202 was to fit more on screen? smaller fonts etc?
nice one!

Default density is 240, 202 is indeed smaller fonts and icons so you can fit more!
202 Seems a bit strange, It might look better at 200. By my calcualations the effective pixel numbers around there work out

brill! love the massively wide toggle widget and of course the lovely speed, sadly its now going to be goodbye htc hero once my network has the S2
I appreciate that mate, nice to see a decent lockscreen and some non touchwiz in action

Morning,
Is it possible to change the CLOCK font on Fancy Widgets Pro?
Thanks,

Excellent question.
I really dislike the default font. It reminds me too much of the font used on the bottom of personal checks. You know, the one that looked high tech back in the 70s but now looks old and tired...

LoL! It totally does. I want it to match my system font. Half the frickin widget matches but not the clock font. Lamey McLamerson.

Beautiful Widgets has been free from GetJar for a few days now. I picked it up and its font is amazingly similar to the font used for the clock in the notification bar. I'm glad I was able to get rid of Fancy Widgets. Beautiful Widgets seems much nicer. Very similar, but still nicer.
Hi everyone! Im the developer of Moogly, a simple but useful todo list widget that started as a project for Honeycomb. The pr is after the break.
There have been reports that it doesnt work properly on some devices! If someone could be so kind as to try the Lite version and if it doesnt stretch properly, send me some screenshots and log files!
You can also post issues at the main thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202211
Thanks in advance!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MOOGLY
A simple but powerful to do list widget designed to be customized. Now with auto-hiding buttons!
Features:
★ Multiple independent, scrollable widgets
★ Quick, dialog based entry
★ Tick to delete or mark complete
★ Widgets are optimized for Honeycomb
★ Predefined themes or total customization
★ RTL support
★ Custom image backgrounds
This widget was inspired by To Do List from HTC Sense - for some reason, they were the only ones to get it right.
Lite Market link - restricted to 8 entries and only one widget
https://market.android.com/details?id=fahrbot.apps.moogly.lite&feature=search_result

This widget is THE BEST! Thanks a lot!
Love this widget, probably the only thing I missed about Sense.
Do you use HTC Classic Yellow?
Looks absolutely perfect on mine, SGS2 running ADW launcher, 2x2 widget and minimal dark skin.
An option to autohide the buttons at the bottom would be nice, as it sort of clashes with my minimal look, or even just an option to dispense with the settings and minus button?
I haven't bought the app yet, will probably do it in a couple of updates time. Your problem is kind of that you made the lite version too good - I only need one widget!
Great work
But do you only need 3 entries? Thats crazy when the app is only $.99

Yep - didn't realise the lite version had that limitation
Only found out when I tried to add a 4th - now I've got the pro version.
You're a good salesman.
Haha - gocha! Just kidding
great widget. hope will get more graphic enhancement in the future. it didnt look clean, it didnt look neat, its not stylish and sleek too but hey it works. thats the most important thing. now after you pushed all feature updates, make the visual enhancement so my friends will look at this widget with awesomeness not only with functionality, but with great UI.
What? It looks alot cooler than everything else on the market. You just seem to have questionable taste...

well, ok then~
Ok... i hope all those friends of yours can forgive me. I havent been making best selling apps all that long, its possible i just dont understand what im doing
Update should be ready tomorrow GTasks ftw!
Any issues to report?
Nope - working flawlessly and ive invested in your humble price and got the pro version
Ive now increased the Max number of entries that can be made in the free version - enjoy!
Any issues with the latest builds?
How can I hide Entrys? Is this only available in the Pro Version?
And a second question: Could it be possible to safe the Todo as a .txt-File and import it again e.g. after flashing a new Rom?
All lists are already saved. As for restore, i suggest you use Titanium or something like that.
Yep - the csv files can be found in RCBs directory!
as much as i like this phone, as much i hate hate how the interface looks with those dam big icons for apps, and their dull colours what a poor implementation of theme
i hope someone will come up with a great theme other than the ones floating around, i can't believe how ugly the theme of g3 is it looks like a dam old phone
U can find many themes that could change homescreen icons in lg smart world app !!
unfortunately all look childish and silly
Then switch to aosp if you don't like the lg ui
There's a few floating around on the Play Store
