Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

i just checked. teh large version says the entire thing
this is fun, re doin my issshhhh
Yes it does, look at mine above. The issue is there's a "No Background" box that defaults to "off" but you have to toggle it once to on then off for just the words to show up with no transparent background. Its just weird but you're right in that it doesn't understand what it's own options mean.
yeah I got it, used a different size of the widget
now I am trying to make shortcuts with custom icons and they just aren't showing up. grrrrrrrr. working on it.
edit - yeah. choose shortcut, application, change icon... and it just doesn't show up. no shortcut appears. launcherpro nooooooo
if general i would just use desktop visualizer
I already use launcherpro for how it all looks I don't want to add something else when this should work.
still don't see why it doesn't work but whatever.
thank you.
That looks amazing, what is that?
Agreed, how do I make my android look like this?
The problem is that it's just not working right. Ever since the upgrade, her phone signal goes from 2-0 bars most of the time, more often than not 0. This is making the phone work harder for a signal, and her battery dies within a few hours. The 3G and wi-fi also shut off randomly. Not just "the icon is dark and things don't download," but "the icon is gone and shit doesn't work." Sometimes turning off and on whatever is failing works, sometimes it takes a reboot. She's also not able to receive texts correctly, instead getting them in batches (i.e. a few people will send her texts, but she'll receive them all at the same time later in the day). All of this started literally the day after the update, and she hasn't installed any other apps since.
Seriously, Verizon has been no help. Taking it to the store doesn't help since the people at the store know nothing about the Incredible (the local Verizon stores mostly don't even carry it, just the X and Droid 2). Very frustrating.
You have to find one of their official corporate stores and deal with someone who works for the company and not just a licensed reseller.
Probably upgraded the OS but not the radio version.
When I jumped from eclair to froyo (rooted HTC Hero) I also upgraded the radio version, then cleared the battery stats. If you're seriously fed up with that Incredible I'd root it and throw something like cyanogen on it, but as mentioned doing so will void any and all warantees you have. Take it to the store first and see what they can do.
No man should have that kind of power.(Twitter)
Doesn't the SDK do it?
You'd have to plug it in, of course.
I have seven home screens, but I'm lazy and don't want to get caps of all of them.
The background is from a shirt that was featured on Woot once upon a time.
Yaaaayyyyy
Agenda is called Smooth Calendar.
high five
except I guess its getting shipped to my parent's house
oooops
Edit: Wait, what the hell. the email has the wrong address listed, but their website says it'll be shipping to the right one.
weird
I got desktop visualizer but it has like no icon packs
not a fan of applauncher
what other options are there?
so it'll work with other stuffs icon packs?
Me too!
SO EXCITED
I used it yesterday to send individual icons to my phone rather than having to sort through icon packs
and I just tried sending text and it can do that too, highlight text and right click, chrome2phone, and it gets sent to your phone clipboard.
everyone may know this already but I just found out, so cool.
AND SHE WOULDN'T GIVE IT TO ME
Yes. Android allows for a lot of customization options out of the box. However, a lot more become available when you "root" the phone. i.e. You bypass the internal security.
Oh wow, that's very cool.
Google maps pages opens them in google maps.
AND SHE WOULDN'T GIVE IT TO ME
I feel the same way and have as much customization visually going on as anyone.
yeah, I finally had it somewhere I liked it and then I saw an infinitely better style.
I am happy with it now though
I can't imagine investing in a phone like this and not being able to spend hours customizing it though
