LiveWallpaper?

Are there live wallpapers on the glaxy s because they would be smooth as with tht prosesor and tht screen

Additionally, the Samsung I9000 Galaxy S packs all the updates brought by Android 2.1, like several new widgets and Live wallpapers as seen on the Nexus One – so, no need to envy Nexus One users for the animated homescreens, but keep in mind that this puts a strain on the battery.

Hi, I have the Samsung Galaxy S, my Live Wallpaper previously works on all menus like the Home Screen and Program menu. when I changed the live wall paper, only the Home Screen has it, the program menu is only black..
How can I set the Live Wallpaper on the program menu?
Thanks

Thanks good to know they are there
@DaRkMyk
I dont think they would display on the proggram menu they don't on the nexus either but i dont know for sure otherwise when the phone is rooted im sure its possible to make the menu transparent so that the live wallpaper is visible

my bad... yup.. the live wallpapers only works on the home menus... this is my first Android phone and i thought i did something...
i hope it can work on all menus....

well on my nexus the live wallpapers worked on all the menus.. but i was running cyanogen, but they also worked on all menus when i was running froyo as well. actually i mean on all home screens is that what you mean.. yes they did not work on the launcher/apps list

Thanks but i think he was talking about the app tray and system settings kind of things

are they smooth scrolling from screen to screen???

I suppose they would be i do not yet own one but i have been on one at the vodafone store and they are very smooth and are infact faster than the n1

HTC Sense 2 (new) - REMAKE - is this possible? patch or mod?

New HTC Sense is great home screen, may be best. BUT it doesn't have important feature - editing count of widget grid.
By default in Sense we have 4x4 grid:
{
"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"
}
This is example with 5x5 grid made in adw.launcher. See a lot of space for widgets
do not worry about "artifacts" on 2nd screenshot, its bug of screenshot software...
Well, i want widget grid resizing feature in new Sense, is that possible by creating some mode or patch?

It's a patch.
Forgot the name.
But doesn't work with HTC Sense.
Only works with stock android launcher if i'm right.

I mean not existing patch, i asked about creating this patch or editing sense resources

no new replies, i'm sad(

Sense is closed source. Without the source I don't think it's possible. Maybe it could be reverse engineered but there are also copyright issues.
Sent with Christmas cheer.

But in general, the OP has a very important point.
I dont use Sense UI simply because of the 4x Grid limitation. I usually go for 5 as well, since it gives me much more room for my important Shortcuts and Widgets.
If Sense UI had an option for something like this, I would prefer Sense UI, since its pretty beautiful in general.

thx for support, i'm totally agree with you

I would be nice to have the option in Sense but then you do get 7 screens which is surely enough to cram all your favorite widgets and shortcuts in?
Plus, more widgets usually means worse battery life, which isn't the DHD's strong point anyway.
Try an app called Apps Oraganizer, it lets you create custom shortcuts which when clicked pop up a box with whatever apps you want

You can use the Multicon Widget from AppBrain
It's one widget thet can hold number of incons.
It's a free app

Looking for a new dialer

Anybody find another dialer that works with our phones? I'm not a huge fan of the stock dialer.

Go contacts

Dialer One is pretty bad ass.

Trying out Touchpal Dialer by Cootek... I used Dialer One on my Nexus One and got on well with it but want something with a crisper UI...

+1 for Touchpal dialer.

ended up dumping touchpal dialer... Watchdog was flagging it as hi CPU even when the phone was idle... trying out GoDialerEX right now but have a feeling i'll find myself back with DialerOne... stock dialer is seriously lacking! why cant i click a pic of a contact after typing a few letters of their name and get actiuons like SMS, call, Open contact etc. the way I can with every other dialer??
Same about TouchPal... liked the crispness of the UI

+1 on this one, most of the apps they have are very good and user friendly.

go dialer/contacts is the best out, a lot of options/themes and stable

yup tried all 3 mentioned here and liked go dialer/contacts the most clean with options and had the functions I liked.

Yup... I'm running GoDialer EX at 200 as opposed to the stock 240 density and all is well... The green "call" butten is a tiny bit stretched but its tons better than the way the stock dialer looks at 200

Anyone know of a dialer like the one is sense...it was great at connecting pictures to Facebook and still only showing my Google contacts

When moving icons and folder on a screen you cant just put them anywhere you want its locked to a grid so is there a way to be able to put folders and icons anywhere you want on the screen?

If you want your folder/app stick to the point where u left your finger and not in the 4*4 grid - so you want it to stick at the exact position - well you can't. Don't know even why would you like to do that? You could mess with your shortcuts easily

Hope fully this will give everyone a better idea of what I am on about.

It would be nice to have total control but unfortunately we don't. I used to have launchers plus on my desire and it is probably the kind of thing you are looking for. Instead of a 4x4 grid you can change it to many others. For instance a 5x6 which would nearly double the amount of icons you could have on screen. You could also resize widgets which was handy. And if I remember correctly you could even have more quick launch icons at the bottom. Very nice app.

It's nothing to do with the one x. Your launcher and widets are crap.

COURTESY OF ANDROID CENTRAL

It's a pretty decent launcher even though on touchwiz most widgets don't work.
Plus been in communication with the Dev since he first posted videos of his launcher, he said there would be public beta but just posted this paid beta.
He already said he would be looking into the widgets issue.
Let's see.

The bad thing about this launcher is the long list to scroll down if you have lots of apps.

Not really. Just click on the begiining letter of the app you want and it takes you there. The app is too minimal in features is my problem.
If the action bar and covers were added to something such as nova it would be the perfect launcher. IMO
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2

I'm pretty well pleased with the Action launcher. Smooth and all the widgets I've installed worked well with no discrepencies at all. I think it is worth a try. I hope he follows with updates.

I really like the concept but features need to be added to make it a competitor.

It REALLY needs to expand the edges. If it would fix that I could see myself using it all the time. But as I use things like android pro widgets and wizz widgets, it just ruins it:
All that wasted space
However, I assume as he updates it more options will appear .

There's an option to reduce the margines.
