My Lego Dock

So I made a lego dock for my wife's iphone before ( you can see it in the picture ) and figured until we got some good ones come out for the Captivate I would just steal some more of my son's legos and make me a dock for my Captivate.
Here is what it looks like, and of course with bluetooth holder on the side

Dude, that's AWESOME. I need to make one that holds my phone in landscape mode that way I can use the desk dock and my phone as a clock "radio".
I wonder if my knex would work well...

Oh I am sure it will. I was thinking about doing the same with mine, and actually I am quite sure it would be VERY easy to make it work in both landscape and horizontal mode..

Dude...that is legit..

HAHA yeah I gotta have my skoal pouches

man i love that are you willing to put up instructions for that

i love the captivate but I sure wish samsung would look at your side shot to see how dumb of a location they put the charge port in!

is that a theme or a specific weather widget you have on there? it looks really nice. actually i like the entire display format.

So heres my shot at this. Great idea and all the credit goes to the OP for the idea, I tore open my closet looking for my old legos after seeing this.
Heres my landscape version. Its raised off the bottom so i can use wide rubber bands as "feet" which are wrapped around flat legos.

Legos rule...I must buy some when I get home from iraq

Haha, that is awesome man! I think i'm going to have to make one too, hahaha. Thanks for sharing! Is there anything legos can't do??? haha
Peace

Ill get started developing one, debating weather to make it free or 99 cents D:. I need the money bad.

Can any one give me some images to see what "Light cycles are?" I've never watched tron, but im sure i can work something out.

I think a 1 or 2 second looping light cycle scene would rock, if you can get the loop to be some what seamless, me love you long time!!
The problem with the one available in the market now is the video quality is poor and it plays slow too

There is....it's an app called Video Live Wallpaper, making video your wallpaper does have obvious device performance trade offs but it's not nothing too serious. Check it out.

Thank you. I downloaded the app, but it's not showing on my apps list I deleted LauncherPro to see if that was the issue, but using TW didn't find it either. I've reset and still no luck, yet when I go into AppMonster, it says it's installed, but I can't launch it.
EDIT: Got onto the makers website and figured out that I needed to go into the Live Wallpapers like I did before and go from there. Thanks again.

Kind of got one made. Had to use the download app mentioned in the thread, but i think it came out pretty well.

Wasnt really thinking about uploading. Got it done pretty quickly, and trying to make an interactive version if i have time. Might upload the file on xda once work settles down.

perfect...........I cant wait for them movie to come out

I'd like that wallpaper if you ever post it up.

For anyone interested in trying to make one yourself I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=720676&highlight=create+live+wallpaper
Looks like it would be fun to play around with. I haven't tried it yet myself though.

[WatchMaker] [Moto 360] Easy To Use!

I have had my Moto 360 for 1 and 1/2 days and the first thing I did was try to figure out how to get a nice Watch Face on there. I am all about customization! First I looked at Facer, since there was a whole lot of hooplah about it. I downloaded the app and went to make my first Face. I couldn't! The app wouldn't allow me to when I tapped the button. I could look at the premade faces, but not make one myself.
So I went and looked at another app, WatchMaker and WearFaces.
WearFaces was much more complicated than I thought it should be...especially after using WatchMaker first. I downloaded WearFaces since it also gotten good reviews, just to see if it was better than WatchFaces. It wasn't.
The first official WatchFace I made was the free version...I called it Purple Haze.
After seeing what it could do for free, I thought I would pay for the app and then see if it opened up anything that would be worthwhile! BOY DID IT!
The ability to use the codes to have the parts of the watch face and add different notices like weather, temp, batter life (icon or percent), events based on time of day...etc....WOW. I am in love with this app!
The developer was also on point in the amount of time it took to answer any questions I had in regards to features!
My next two faces after 1 day!
Doctor Who Time and Rainbow Hearts came next!
I am working on a The Walking Dead one now!!

One thing I love about watchmaker is how smooth the animations are on phone and watch. This can really be seen with the smooth second mode. I love the draggable weather widgets too, only wish there were some extra themes.

New weather and battery themes added in WatchMaker 2.4!

Not yet, but it may be worth asking the FaceRepo guy if he would think about building one - he posts on here too, so would be good to get his thoughts.

do i have to buy master watchmaker if i want to set a watchface i downloaded?
when i press on set watchface it says "master watchmaker" in the title and the options are later and get now . if i press on later it doesn't set the watchface to the clock

One-time purchase of $0.99

I have imported several .face files from facer and it automatically converts most of the fields. I had one face that I had to add in a text field but that's easy enough to do.
I have been using Facer for quite a while, I just downloaded watchmaker this morning and I must say I like the interface better in WatchMaker.

is it just me or battery life with watchmaker watchface is pretty bad compared to stock rotate watch face?
i tried this 2 watchfaces which is not so crowded with details with smooth second hand on :

http://facerepo.com/app/faces/details/corv-imperatus-ruby-149481c6a72
maybe the fact the my watch is pretty new (got it yesterday and did 3rd charge cycle) effect battery life too .

I tried the Corv as well Jarvis, and although it's fairly smooth with WatchMaker, I was going to bed with 17-22% remaining, where immediately before using Watchmaker, I was putting it in the charging stand with 45-55% remaining at night.
I think you just have to determine what your priorities are... battery life or a sweeping second hand. I guess I'm more okay with a ticking second hand.

@Bimboy i changed the max frame rate in watchmaker settings to 15 , the second hand still moves pretty smooth and battery life is lot better in compare to when it was on 50 (default setting).
try too, maybe you won't need to prioritize

Well I just received my Smartwatch 3, pics and comparisons inside! GPS My Tracks etc.

COMPARISON PICS ON THIS THREAD WITH THE SMARTWATCH 2. From expansys UK. Cant see anything to do with WiFi etc yet. It seems a lot smaller than the smartwatch 2.
The interface is quite fidly but I guess im not used to it yet. Any questions let me know and ill do my best to answer.

Build quality is solid. Tue band is very comfy and easy to adjust. The charging port is quite awkward but I suppose its worth it for the waterproof.

Regarding WiFi. It's not available until Google adds support to it. Check Verizon page for details.

Downloading music takes forever. It transfers via Bluetooth from the phone.

is it possible to use normal wrist bands with it?
is it possible to use normal wrist bands with it? Not the ones that cover the whole watch from sony.. But normal leather wrist bands?

Hmmmmm interesting!

Just a quick update, ive now had this watch on for nearly 24 hours and after heavy use its at 54% battery remaining! this is much better than what i was expecting. This included transferring 100 songs over wireless, heavy "ok google" usage, 4 miles running with the built in step counter, general messing around. love it!!
The Watch took 20 mins to charge from 54% to 100% as well!

That is excelleny

Can you check the notification for new SMS.: I just get a '1 new message' pop-up window. There does not appear to be a way to read the message details. thanks

Yep I checked it, you swipe up to read the message, then you can swipe right to left to read the message thread, then again to reply by voice or prefixed message etc. It doesnt say when the message was received though.

Just some comparison pics of the smartwatch 2 vs 3. Ill be keeping the Smartwatch 2 for best as the metal strap makes it look way better. I hope Sony will sell the rumoured metal strap for smartwatch 3 seperately....I kind of like the Sony logo on the smartwatch 2 as well.

[Q] (Request) Putting numbers on a watchface.

Hi I dont suppose anyone would be happy to help me finish a project i have?
Im having trouble making the missing numbers (the picture will show what i mean) for a watchface I am making.
The watch will be in the style of my cars rev counter (Renault clio 200) which is shown here

I want the hour numbers going from 9 to 4, 4 being in red where the 8 on the rev counter is.
Could somebody if they have time, suggest a similar font, make the missing numbers or even add them to my PSD file which is uploaded to my Google drive?
The plan from there is to have the temp gauge as a battery meter and where the x1000 is I will put the date.
Once complete i will share with the community and another watch which i am finishing up which is shown here
Thanks all

I actually use paint.net (http://www.getpaint.net/). It has many nice features, pretty easy to learn, and best of all is free. I really take advantage of the layers tool and then always make sure to save a copy in their format (.pdn). Then when I'm satisfied with what I have, I copy each layer into a new image, flatten it, and save the png file.
It's nice having those separate layers. It made switching out the numbers for the bigger ones really quick.
