Here is a little holiday weekend gift for everyone.
Since we don't yet have a built-in custom power menu, here is a 6 way power menu
which can be used to replace the stock built-in power button completely so we can
reboot download mode, recovery mode, power down, soft reboot and screen off
without the need of the usual 3 finger salute. It even looks like it's part of the firmware.
You can add this power menu to your home screens. (this is not a widget)
Here is the download link for it: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347809104
Install it like any other apk... Requires root access.
Here is a screen shot of what it looks like:
{
"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"
}
Good luck!
Thanks for this. Works good.

What launcher are you using for those icons?

The icons works with most 3rd party launchers like Next Launcher 3D,
Nova, ADW, Action, Smart and Go Launcher.
However it will NOT work with the stock touchwiz launcher at all.
Personally I like the Next Launcher 3D the best.
You need to get the "Cobalt Icon Pack from the playstore to get it working.
Here is the direct link for the "Cobalt" icon pack at the playstore in case you
want to check it out: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dustinb.icons.cobalt
Good luck,
Have a great day!

Here's a picture of my home screen. I like to keep things simple. It's the adw minimalist homescreen. I was wondering if there was a way to get the battery color to not be green.
I was looking at some themes, but didn't want to download the entire theme to just get the status bar.
Is there a theme out there that's super simple like my homescreen?

Oops, hit the thanks button instead of quote. So I'm not sure if there is a like what you want, but the status bar can be modified by changing the framework-res.jar file. If you find a theme with a battery you like, you can grab those images from the framework-res.jar in it to mod your own. (You'll have to search to see which files they are---I'm not a big modder of the file myself.)
Alternatively, you can try using the online kitchen at this site: http://circle.glx.nl/. They allow you to select from a wide variety of battery types where you can customize the color scheme. They also allow you to modify other elements of your framework. After you make your selections, you just upload your existing framework-res.jar and download the one they modify for you. If all you want is to change your battery icon, this is probably your best bet.
EDIT: An alternative home launcher must be installed to take advantage of the "Activities" option. I have LauncherPro installed.
This is a simple workaround for those of us who have had a problem with the World Clock disappearing from the app drawer...I have attacthed the apk if you can't find it on your system!
First-Verify that Htc Clock is installed by performing a Google search with the search soft key (This is the only way it will work)...

}
Second-Long press any home screen and tap shortcut...
Third-Tap Activities (It may take a few seconds to load)...
Fourth-Tap Clock...
Fifth-Tap WorldClockTabControl...
Sixth-Place Clock Shortcut on any screen and enjoy
]
I don't think it's ever been in my app drawer. You get to it by tapping on a widget on the homescreen.
And for your workaround, you need LauncherPro installed. It does not have to be the launcher you are using. The "activities" is a LP feature, not a sense one.
I've only had this phone a couple of weeks but I remember when I first got it there was a shortcut in the app drawer....however, a few days later i recieved and OTA so maybe that's why it disappeared. Either way, this may help someone find a quicker way to get up for work in the mornings
Please read the second part of my post. You left something out of your instructions.
oops....your are very correct. forgot all about that part
This method does not work for me (the apk fails to instal). Does the phone have to be rooted?
I messed up again. Wrong apk. Bear with me, I'm still learning. Lol
I'm away from my computer for the nxt couple of days, send me a pm and I'll email you my old desk clock to use untill I can post the correct apk.
In the meantime you can always access deskclock by tapping the time on clock widget

I discovered an app that allows the home screen to work in landscape mode, as well as the dialer and most apps. It does cut off the labels on some of the icons, and make widgets sized a bit odd sometimes, but for the most part it works and is AMAZING if you want to HDMI out through a MHL cable and would like it to stay landscape locked while mirroring.
The app is called "Orientation Lock" by "coin soft" and is available for free download via the android market. It does not require root.
I thought i'd share this because I've seen people ask if there's any way to run home screen in landscape and I always just see people reply with "install a 3rd party launcher" so I thought i'd share the solution for people who'd like to stay on TW. Another note is that this works across most ROMS that are TW based I've tried it on stock, stock telus, dabomb v1.0, and have even since installed a 5 icon dock mod, which does not make this method not function, but does hide the 5th icon while in landscape mode. This method can also be used to view your app drawer in landscape as well. If you have any apps you'd like to mirror via MHL cable in landscape but only view in portrait by default, wasting a HUGE portion of the screen on your big shiny hdtv, you can force landscape.
Please hit "thanks" if I have helped you!

Simply install them as apk and press thanks if you like it.
Note: Clock widget will only work with the motorola launcher.
Nav bar is not included.
I'll have to try it out later when I get home.

So far I've only tried it on ICS+ based roms and on the following devices: GSII, GSIII, GNexus and Tmo Note II. Worked on all.
Oh man if only this (circles widget) worked with Apex launcher. That would be fantastic. Tested on JB it is working but only with the Moto Launcher, which I really don't care for. Anybody know how to "fix" the circles widget to work on other launchers?
Sorry only way to get a widget similar to this one is to download the "One More Clock Widget Free" or the paid app in the playstore and choose the chrome circle clock skin.

Awesome thanks. That'll do.
I figured we could use a thread to share our home screens and our themed home screens. Always seemed to be a big hit in the other areas I was in.

Mine is simple right now.
Nova Launcher Prime, Zooper Widgets and Moonshine Icons.
Felt like changing it up just a bit. Still keeping it simple. (I do have a page to the left and right of the home screen with a few widgets on them. Weather, Google Search, etc..)
Did not go too crazy on the home screen setup this time but i got BlinkFeed running with flipboard and a few folders (School,work,games,etc)
