Hidden/unused theme engine on GS2? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

So I was messing around adding shortcuts to my homescreen with launcher pro and I saw an activity under settings/skins/theme picker 3d.
When I run the activity, it pulls up a screen that looks similar to the CM7 TMO theme engine, but there are no options to pick a different theme. Installed a cm7 theme from the. Market and it doesn't show people there either.
Anyone familiar with this??

how are you running launcher pro?
Install from market.
Same Question
I had the same question a few days ago and scoured Appbrain until I found Icon Pack - Minimum. It's great, albeit minimum, icon pack for Launcher Pro. I don't recognize most of the represented apps (Maybe iPood?).
go to laucherpro website they have alot of dockbars/icons. i made my MT3G look like its running an espresso ROM with out the ROM lol
just icons and a dockbar

Stupid Icon Question

So im putting together a different theme type thing on my phone, and i was wanting to use the stock launcher pro browser icon, but not in the dock (ie as an app icon instead; using bettercut). where from astro/root explorer would i be able to find this? and also, for the app drawer, i wanted to use the one from moto blur (little circle icon w/ arrow). where can i find this? thanks!
You have to dig into the .apk of launcher pro to get the icon and you will have to dig into the moto blur rom to get the icons. You will need to poll the /framework.res file from moto blur and the image will be in there as for launcher pro you might want to get the devs permission to us the icon

im not using it for a theme i plan on releasing or anything, i just wanted to use it as an icon in launcher pro. i found it on the icons website. so i dont need that one, but still would like the blur app drawer

Widgets

I am looking for some decent widgets for example the clock/weather widget that is on the evo. Same with a message widget similar to the one on the evo. Any ideas would be very helpfull. And if anyone has any snapshots of their screens to get some ideas of how to lay them out. Please list what widgets are being used with each screen shot as well. Thanks in advance.
Beautiful widgets it what u want for clock/weather which is a payed app. Only thing I know that has sense like messaging is launcher pro which is free for the basic version. Launcher pro plus is wa worth the money tho.

Can you post some of your screens?
Has anyone ever had any issues with Beautifyl widgets and the animations? I keep getting beautiful widgets needs to connect to the internet and download 1020kb for the forecast animations then it goes to download and doesn't download anything. Any clues anyone?
Sorry don't have access to a computer at the moment. But as far as your question I have not had that problem.

Here is my homescreen using nebula rom 1.0.6 twin jet, themed with the gingerbread theme, icons I found somewhere on here and tweaked a bit, launcher pro dock and, of course, beautiful widgets.
My BW widget skins are myriad-clean for the clock (this will change to either 42blue or blueglownaked when theimpaler releases his new theme) and Bullet_droid for the weather.

Quick couple of questions that are completely unrelated...

1. I have used the Calkulin remove sense zip that is floating around (obviously after I did a nandroid backup), and my ADW ex launcher is acting funky. It is now FC after switching home pages and I needed to rebuild all my widgets. Any ideas why this is happening and how to fix it?
2. Is there any way to change default icons? I am using ADW ex with the Tron Legacy theme and the icons look amazing. But I also use the Multicon app, and placing shortcuts into the widget makes the icon default back to the standard android icon.

1) Never used ADW EX but haven't found a lot of advantage to using the remove Sense zip. I am running LP instead of the Sense and there is no slowdown at all with it still on there. What are you trying to accomplish by removing the Sense?
2) Don't think you are going to have those options using Multicon because it is going to use the default. I would think the application itself would have to be modified to make this work. If you just want more icons on the screen than maybe look into changing the resolution instead of running Multicon.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
It's all good. I have heard that removing sense speeds things up, but, like you, I have not see an improvement.

Launcher with 4 icons

Now I've looked long and hard on this one. Thoughout xda and any other site that is similar. But to no success. So I ask...
Where and/or how can I get a launcher that has just 4 icons in its dockbar?
The touchwiz one is slow and the homescreen is locked on the first screen "iPhone" style.
ADW launcher and its EX version have been updated to not allow the old "secondary AB settings" anymore.
Launcher pro cant do it period
And the open home launcher is too difficult and I cant pay for it. Used up this weeks app budget.
So I need a launcher that has 4 icons in its dockbar. The new MIUI.ADW launcher has it in its settings but I dont like the scaling and size of the app icons in the drawer and homescreens.
Any help please?
And I mean 4 icons as in similar to touchwiz. Three changable apps and one app drawer icon.
Well you could set up LauncherPro with only 4 shortcuts in the dock. Just leave one of the spaces blank.

Yeah but that makes it appear disorganised. I wan one that's spaced the way the toucwiz launcher is spaced. Go check out miui for adw launcher in the market. Some Guy managed to alter it to use only 4 icons in the dock. I would just use that one with a different theme, but the icons are blown up way too much.
Download launcher pro icons via the market you can change the appearance of you dock 100%.

So you can make the just 4 icons (including launcher) appear evenly amongst the entire dock? There will not be an open space where an icon should be?

I don't think so. I just tried LPI and didn't see any option of making it have what you want. I didn't play around with it too much though because I wanted to uninstall it within the 15 minutes so I didn't get charged for it.
I know what I suggested isn't what you are looking for it was just a thought. You might want to check out this themed version of LP though. It comes with icons in the first 3 dock spaces, then the 4th one blank and the app drawer on the far right. Doesn't look too bad actually.

It does look nice but its not quite what I'm looking for. Does anyone know a way to mod the Adw launcher to have 4 icons in the dock?
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.adw.launcher.miui&feature=search_result
I tried this launcher for a few minutes but I cant get the icons to scale properly with another theme. They all look blown up.
Why not just use ADW Ex with no Dock? This would put 4 Icons on the bottom row and you could make one the app drawer. I am not sure if free ADW has the option for no dock, but I know for sure the Ex version does. I think this way will give you the best most uniform look available.
Live home... but havent found it in the gb market

Why dont you flash miui, if your rooted obviously. It has 4 changeable dock icons that seem to be what your looking for. I personally like it, except it has no app drawer if thats a deal breaker for you. I dont mind it.
