With the Release of Mass Effect days away I thought I'd share my bits and pieces that I use on my galaxy nexus.
I also use MultiPicture Livewallpaper so these wallpapers are configured to fit a single screen 720x1280 pixels.
I have a home screen with wallpapers on rotation and on the 'sub' screens I have a static image and another on the unlock screen (all set through multiPicture live wallpaper).
With that in mind here are the RARs:
ME_Notifications.rar - Mono MP3 Sounds that can be used as notifications
ME_Ringtones.rar - stereo ringtones
GNexME_Backs.rar - 720x1280 JPEGs that I use for the 'sub' screens and unlock screen
GNex_Walls_ME - PART 1.rar - 720x1280 JPEGs that I use for the home screen (part 1)
GNex_Walls_ME - PART 2.rar - 720x1280 JPEGs that I use for the home screen (part 2)
Please note all images and sound are copyright bioware etc and I'm only posting them here out of my love for the games
Now if you'll excuse me, I have some calibrations to perform.
UPDATE:
I've just uploaded some Mass Effect 3 rintones and notifications
ME3_notifications.rar
ME3_rintomes.rar
And some Dedicated LockScreens
GNEX_N7_locks.rar - screen shots of a couple added here
How about a few screen shots?
The walls would be good but unfortunately they are not formatted for the GNex and a lot of the picture gets cut off.
However, I am rockin some of the ringtones!
Sorry for the stupid questions but I haven't ever been able to get the wallpapers out of the .rar I've done the .zip where I can extract but how do I get them out of the .rar again. Sorry for the question but I've been eager to knw, thanx

Hi there, unrar the lockscreen to find .jpeg files
You can then copy the ones you want to your nexus.
Personally I use the lockscreen feature of MultiPicture Live Wallpaper to set mine but you should be able to use any app that supports JPEGs for this feature (widget locker for xample).

I dumped all of the default static wallpapers you can find preloaded on every Galaxy S, Captivate, Fascinate, Vibrant and Epic and thought about sharing them into a single package containing 52 wallpapers.
It also includes the colored yarn balls promo wallpaper optimized by me with the Gimp in order to have a standard (960x800) resolution without losing quality.
UPDATE: I included 22 new wallpapers from the Nexus S, making a total of 74 wallpapers!
You're probably thinking bentgrass and grass2 are the same wallpaper; actually, the one from the Nexus S (green2) is slided a bit to the left and has more vivid colors. The same is for rainbokeh and street_lights: the second one (from the Nexus S) is slided a bit to the left and has no lights on the upper-left and bottom-right corners.
Here's a preview (click to enlarge) followed by download links. Enjoy!

P.S.: Please, tell me if you think that some wallpapers are missing, so I can add them to the package!
bro...great job...these walls are very nice and fresh (the ones not on my phone).....big thumbs up for your effort....
Awesome. I love it.
Thank you, guys! I'm glad you liked it.
Thank you! They look great!
Hey dude thanks for these, can you post them in the Official Wallpaper Repo thread? Would be great thanks.
How to use it without cropping the resolution??
@sherwoodlee When you select the wallpaper, slide the selection square to the upper-left of the picture, then grab the bottom-right corner of the square and enlarge it until it fits the full picture. In few words you have to select the whole picture.

They're stored inside the folder res/drawable-hdpi of an app, which is /system/app/TwWallpaperChooser.apk for I9000/Vibrant/Captivate/Fascinate and /system/app/Launcher.apk for Epic 4G. Unfortunately, there's no easy way of doing this.

Can this be converted to a flashable apk so that these wall-paper show up as another category, maybe SGS Wallpapers in the wallpaper dialog?

Yes, you would need to add the wallpapers into TwWallpaperChooser.apk (or Launcher.apk if you're using an Epic), recompile it, resign it, and make a flashable zip. There should be no universal solution, since i think it's firmware-based (correct me if I'm wrong!).
If you think there's an easier solution, I'll do what I can.

Hi, can anyone tell me how i am supposed to use a theme for widgetlocker at all please?
I downloaded 3 files and chose the option of install and add, but there is only my phone lock showing, no icons to choose from and no wallpaper that was supposed to come with it.
I have no idea where the file has saved to or anything, and well being new to all of this android stuff i m a bit confused....
thanks for any help you can give me.
Click the following-
Lots of themes
Google is your Friend.
Hope this helps.
mmm thanks for that buddy.

Only the slider has appeared and i cannot it seems that i can see the custom made icons that were in the package.

Long press on a slider, or press menu then add slider and you can choose theme. It doesn't change the theme as soon as you install.

How do you assign the lock homie wsllpaper? I copied the the theme to correct location & naming convention is right but canae see paper? Do you have to save wallpaper to download folder and assign from there or am i losing the plot?

theres an option in widget locker settings under look & feel where you can select a wallpaper tick alternative wallpaper and select whatever you want
Is there any way you can make a theme just like this without the lock icon in the middle? Thanks.
Hi
Quick question RE: Widget locker
I've only ever used this biefly on my old Desire.....this was some time back so my memory is a little hazy
i seem to remember that on occasions that it would either flash up the standard HTC lock screen or require me to unlock one then the other.....or something similar to this
Does this lockscreen work without the above issues (or indeed, any issues) on the S2 ?
is there any lag or any other nasties ??
Cheers

Works fine on mine so far. always showing the widgetlocker except after a fresh reboot. slight lag on the slider at times. my only concern was battery life but it doesn't seem to affect much.

Hello Peeps, a black theme for widget locker
thought i'd share
hit thanks if u like
I have noticed that in the TWWallpaperchooser.apk that there are quite a few more wallpapers in there than the default 4 that we see in Wallpaper Gallery.
I was wondering if there was to enable the rest of them, and on a related question, is there a way to add your own into that apk too?
any response??
hey have you figured this one out yet.. i have been waiting anxiously for this answer.
Attached are zipped .pngs of the wallpapers. Credit goes to some XDA member - I can't find the original post. Extract and set them as you would any regular image file (gallery > set as)
Bonus cat wallpaper is from LPH leak. I don't think it's in the GB roms.
thanks for the response lonathe and the hookup. I think we're looking for the "How To" on tweaking the TwWallpaperchooser.apk to show ALL of the embedded wallpapers via Android's "Wallpaper Gallery" rather than just the ones they WANT you to see. For me I have both a SGS2 Skyrocket and T-Mo SGS2 (white) and they have different wallpapers embedded inside the apk. I am looking to extract ALL the Skyrocket's wallpapers from the TwWallpaperchooser.apk into the T-Mo SGS2's apk and then have them ALL visible via the "Wallpaper Gallery". Can anyone explain to me how to accomplish this?

Yeah, it's a achievable. I have done it in my new ROM. If you want, I can help you to open all up.
Just send me your system/app/TwWallpaperChooser.apk.
I can just link everything up for you.
Edit: I have tried open up GB rom and ICS rom TwWallpaperChooser.apk, they both have the same wallpapers plus hidden one. Btw, the cat is included too. They got more than 10 cool hidden wallpapers.
If you want my help, just pm me. I will be quite busy modifying my new ROM. I might miss your post here.

A lot of people have been asking me how I made my setup, so I'm going to make a simple guide as to how to make it. It's easier than it looks, specially now that I'm helping you!
This concept was not originally mine, and I don't take credit for it. But I made it my way and I had permission to borrow his concept of control layout
This is how it turned out //
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
NOW Let's Start!
Apps you need //
Minimalistic Text
Palmary Weather Premium or Something similar
I was using Nova Launcher/AOKP B25/Black Nexus by Nitro
No Search Bar - 6x5 Grid
*Note that all of the minimalistic text is bottom aligned vertically and as well as all of them have a static “1spacebar” before the actual time/date/etc.
ie. time has [1space][hour][:][minutes][am/pm]
SCREEN 1
Minimalistic WIDGET SIZE = 3 × 2 – time – 122 dip size // PM/AM – 40 dip size
Minimalistic WIDGET SIZE = 2 x 1 – date – 40 dip size
Put the date on the 2ND ROW of the screen from the top and leave the top part of the screen blank
PALMARY WIDGET - 4 X 2 - Then resize to 5 x 3 fill the middle part
Minimalistic WIDGET SIZE = 2 × 1 – battery – 75 dip size
Bottom part of the screen
3 blank icons to place on the right side
ie phone app / messaging app / folder
SCREEN 2
Minimalistic WIDGET SIZE = 3 × 1 – memory – 55 dip size
To the right side, 2nd row again, leave top part of screen blank.
SWITCHPRO WIDGET - SIZE 4 - then resize to 3 x 1 to fit the wallpaper design
Picture Gallery widget - 5 x 3 - resize to fit the wallpaper design
Minimalistic WIDGET SIZE = 2 × 1 – battery temp is 72 dip size
Bottom left part of the screen
AGAIN
3 blank icons to place on the right side
ie phone app / messaging app / folder
Download the SETUP.zip I have attached and copy the Minimalisticpreference and fonts folder in your sdcard.
The images, distribute where you keep your wallpaper/graphics as well as the softkeys folder if you want them.
*For the softkeys, you will have to use ninjamorph and do it manually because I have no clue how to make a zipthemer or metamorph file.
Apply the wallpaper first and make sure you have the 6x5 grid already applied and have 2 screens instead of 5.
Start applying the widgets (LOOK AT THE SIZES ABOVE) and instead of laying them out manually just restore the preferences I made.
Now for the "Navigation" part of the wallpaper, you can replace that with whatever app you want. I have included a link to the .psd so you can update it.
*Note that I didn't clean up the PSD so you will have to figure it out yourself
IF and WHEN you are done with the navigation part, use the blank.png I included as the new icon for each app you have to make it transparent.
I hope by this time you already have it setup.
ONCE you have this setup, you will have an understanding as to how I layed it out and NOW you can START CUSTOMIZING YOUR OWN
Good Luck!
Please post screenshots of yours here so I can see the results

I know how to make ZipThemer files if you need them. This is wonderful
I got an error message when trying to load the minimalistic text preferences. Any idea why? I copied them from your zip, to my sd card where the preferences for MT are, but got an error when trying to load them. No idea

maybe make a backup of your saved preferences and then delete the folder of the pref again and reinstall minimalistic text, then just copy the files inside my folder to your new pref folder...
I haven't heard of this type of issue, maybe a corrupted transfer to your sdcard?
Same problem has that guy

Looks cool.
I wanted to try it but it would be nice if you'd include a little more detailed instructions as how to set this thing up for us - lazy n00bs.
I mean if I put the wallpaper images on the SD and then try to apply the wallpaper thru Gallery, it wants me to crop the image, which will end up over or undercropped so it won't fit the screen precisely.
Also I couldn't figure out how to restore the minimalistic preferences you've made.
So I gave up.
Maybe make a backup of your nova home screen and upload it? I don't know of that'd work though

Alright, I added my nova launcher backup, hopefully that works...Also inside the folders, I included different color schemes for the wallpaper and Lockscreen...
ie. orange, red, yellow, etc.
For some reason, xda wouldn't accept the zip even though it's less than 11 mb. anyways, here are the files...Hopefully it works this time...
extra.zip
lockscreen.psd
Make sure that you are using AOKP rom and have 2 screens using nova launcher FIRST. Then maybe once you understand the layout, you can customize it.
IF for some reason the wallpaper isn't properly working just apply it and reboot, nova launcher is weird that way.

Thanks for your help. I couldnt get your preferences to work, so I just went ahead and did the configuration. Doesnt look as good as yours, but not bad considering I'm using a G2X running CM7. LMK what you think.
Lockscreen- CM7 w/ gestures and music controls (no widget)
Homescreen- Beautiful weather, Minimalistic text, launcher pro, CM7 "crystal" theme, Multipicture live wallpapers (had to split your wallpaper into two screens to fit my smaller device properly)
Second Screen- Still not sure what to do here, I dont really need a power widget bc it is in my drop-down menu, maybe I'll add the temp and space, but for now I gotta get back to (real)work!
Thanks a lot for the wallpapers and ideas! I found this thread via Mycolorscreen btw

Cool! I set it up manually but is there a way to change the minimalistic text to that tall kind without making it the entire system font? That's the only way I found out how to do it. Thanks.

Hi guys,
Total android Newbie here.
Just been playing around with my Nexus 7 and theming it.
Im currently running Nova prime with minimal MIUI icons (will upload pic soon)
I like the look of some of the large rectangular metro style icons which I would like to apply to my setup. What program would be best to assign actions to the images?
I tried desktop virtualiser and it uploads the metro icons but they look pretty small and theres no option for resizing.
Any help would be appreciated
You should be able to change them using Nova.

What the guy ^ there said, plus if you use uccw you can use those images, the metro style images, as either a background or insert as an image, scale as you see fit, then add a hotspot over them and assign the click action to whatever you want. Uccw is my go to for creating anything custom

You need to choose different sized widgets when using Desktop Visualizer. The 1x1 SS one will look like a normal icon, BTW. I haven't used it for a while, but it should have worked.
