[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Caldair:
lol, yeah it outputs in VGA only. So you have to set your monitor either to have black bars on the sides or zoom(which is perfect for widescreen movies). I watch all my movies at home streaming using the divx web player so I am used to 480p on my HDTV(they may be a little smoother looking on the HTPC since its outputting 720p). These movies look pretty good to me(tho HD mkv changes everything). And free increases the resolution ten fold!! ;)

Anyway, back on topic... I have never tried in GBX because I do not use an official cable for TV-Out and because of this I have to "trick" WM by changing the registry so that it will recognize my cable as a TV-Out and not just a headset as it senses automatically. It actually has to change the function of the pins of the mini usb and thus the headphone jack of the multifunction dongle. The sheer hackiness of the solution in WM tells me that there is no way in hell that it will work for me in android with my current hardware.

And, to be honest I don't really want it in android. Lets face it, without external power you could probably watch like one TV episode before the battery crapped out(okay, a bit of an exaggeration, I know, but you know what I mean).

EDIT: Even more off topic but I can't resist. I have ordered a usb OTG cable from hong kong for a buck and once I get it my next experiment will be trying to play a movie using TV-Out, off of an external hard drive, hopefully while on external power.

As long as there are still new things to try on my rhod I can put off getting a new phone... but I am running out fast!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
Either you haven't tried OMGB, or you're just not aware...

But that build gets as good if not better battery life than WinMo. Thanks to ACL's amazing work reversing the batt driver for WinMo...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] detule:
As good as winmo eh (or even better no less)... That would be something...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Caldair:
Yes I am aware of it, but you are right, I haven't tried it yet. I do see a lot of good things about the battery life, but I am still too fond of WM to call it quits... i know, i know, probably time to "embrace change"!

I actually get great battery life from you guys GBX (I have hacked the crap out of it). I go easily all day and night doing everything and more than in WM. I love them both!

I actually have never tried to watch divx (or anything else for that matter) on android. Have you arrrghhh?[EDIT: or anyone else?] Any experience with watching local video files on the rhodium running any build? Do you need any app?

I am curious now?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Caldair:
I can now answer half of your question: You definitely have the ability to watch movies on the rhod running android.

I have just installed MX player from the market and am about 20 mins into a 700mb divx movie on GBX0C with kernel 3.4. So far it is playing very well (much better than I expected, especially with no OC!).

MX installed no prob, then when I started it up it said something like "no codec installed. Install from market?" clicked yes, market comes up with Codec for MX Player (armv6), install that then play movie on card. Great!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Slipdoozy:
i can tell you that OMGB rom does not have a tv-out or at least my phone dont recognize the tv-out cable and flat screen to "see" my phone either. i have one of those tv-out HTC Multimedia ACT100 TV Out Cable for HTC Fuze/Touch Pro cables. works in winmo not on android. but i havent tried any special apps either.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] MDavisiw:
speaking on the quality of the output video in Winmo when put on a TV. It has a lot to do with the file your playing obviously. I carry the same sentiment previously mentioned the RCA out and the offline GPS (tomtom) are what keeps me attached to my Phone.

I use the TV out nearly every day I hook it up to the Gym TV to do insanity or P90X, and listen to the audio via BT headset (I already looks like a fool jumping around I don't need to cause more displeasure on people making them endure Tony Horton or Shawn T). The video shows up not perfect, but I have super compressed files, its good enough to tell what the exercise is and how much time is left)

This setup would be perfect If core player (.mp4 files) would accept AVRCP inputs on the rhodium but that is where my perfect setup falls short. I suppose rather then viewing new phones I could purchase a 32gb sd card and just get different file formats of the videos.

Thank you all for the input, ill live with what i have for now, great work to all the devs as far as they took this project.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] horizons1:
I have tried four free divx players on the Google Play Market on my Rhodium running GB0X. The best performance I found was with Seaman Player, I think that is what it was. MX was sketchy for me, and none of them play as sharply as watching the same files in CorePlayer in WinMo.

To keep from getting to far OT, I have the dongle and it works great in WinMo, but given the playback performance on the built-in screen my hopes are not high that we would have good results on TV-out.

Alright i know im probably about to get flamed for this but i'm kind of a newb. I've had my nexus for quite some time and love the device. love it to the point where i didnt see an overwhelming need to flash/root it. however, with the new JB update release id really like to install it to play around. Is there any tutorial i could be pointed to that would walk me through the steps? I search around through the Verizon Development section and couldnt find one. any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] @xDeepS:
*Click image for high res. version.​

It has been a while since I made a real homescreen, I had been using Windows Phone for a while before I got my Galaxy S3. You guys have no idea how suffocating those tiles were (But I still love the MetroUI).

So, I call this setup DropUI cause of the raindrops in it. I have this strange fascination about them, they calm me down. You might notice the edges have black spots, they're there so that the screen looks rounded too. Inside the screen is another layer (or I call it a base). The base has the nav, the dock and the folders. I had to include the dock inside the wallpaper and then use blank icons on my launcher cause 7x10 grid was a pain to work with.

I had seen many setups before I created this, the best and the most unique ones used SweeterHome which is a beta launcher and is clunky. I believe in functionality over looks so I chose one of the best launchers out there, Apex Launcher. (You can use GoLauncher too but Apex has some nice gesture controls.) I made most of it, I had to mash up two icon sets and add in some effects to them. (resources are listed below). Unlike most of the complex setups which make it really hard to change wallpapers, each of my homescreen changes its wallpaper automatically. I had to make couple of wallpaper variations but same wallpapers get boring after a while. The folders are made up of Simi Folder widget and the text is made up of Minimalistic Text.

Hey SilentRazor,

You wouldn't have the original masks you used over the backgrounds still available would you? Without the system icons etc.

Glad you figured it out, its pretty easy.

I dont have masks but do have it all layered up in a PSD. The emboss on some backgrounds is pretty simple to replicate. I'll release the PSD on my site too.

I do not know how to make a flashable zip but my tutorial will be short. Setup time will be around 20 mins.

Swamped in work, this weekend I promise :fingers-crossed:

here they are....

---------- Post added at 05:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:39 PM ----------

ok.. here goes a small tutorial on how to

requirements: apex launcher.. multipicturelive wallpaper, download the wallpaper in my previous post

widgets used: pure grid calender,pure messenger widget,player pro(i use poweramp tho)

1.install apex launcher and multipicture

2.choose multipicture as wallpaper..go to settings..select add individual settings.. choose the pictures from the downloaded zip and assign each pic to each screen

almost done

now select your pure messenger and pure grid calender widgets as fit it into the wallpaper slots..

i have selected my apex grid as 7*10...

Now you can put your appropriate shortcuts into the dock and change its icon into the blank icon provided in the zip...

i have no idea what the widget in the leftmost first screen under settings is tho..

all credits for this cool theme goes to silent razor

thanks to masze for helping through a few hiccups too...

I have the PSD on my site now.

I am not making a flashable zip, too much of a hassle. Do it yourself, will take an hour max.

I am sorry, crazy week. Live now.

I posted on there first! No one saw it because their thumbnailing system is stupid. Here's the link to it: http://mycolorscreen.com/2012/06/29/drop-ui/

Up now, sorry!

They are Power Controls widgets. 3 bars with 3 buttons.

Looks really great, nice work.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] dantheman122:
I built it, looks really awesome!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] lessness:
I've built it and it looks fantastic. I just have a couple of questions:

- Did you manage to hide the little blue bar that shows when a home screen is changed? If I didn't miss something, the guide doesn't talk about it.

- What do you do for notifications? With the status bar hidden, it may happen to miss some text message/skype/etc.

Thank you!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] dantheman122:
1) Go to Apex Settings, Homescreen, and untick Show desktop indicator.

2) Edit: Got it, Apex Settings, Advanced Settings, turn on Unread SMS count and Missed call count and choose the right app thats hidden in the dock, shows up beautifully. Just gotta restart Apex launcher to get them going
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] lessness:
Thank you, those fixes both work perfectly. Now I just need to figure out how to show missed calls/sms on my lockscreen. Did you try TeslaUnread/MissedIT?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] dantheman122:
I'm gonna have a play with Minimalistic Text and stuff, see if it can show unread messages, like "3 Messages" in nice font on the lock screen with WidgetLocker
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Anymoore:
Woaw ! Looks Amazing ! I 'll try :)

Thank you so much

edit : Sorry cause i'm french, but when i'm in apex launcher, i just set the 5 folds with SiMi folder but how can i success to set the "minimalistic" as wallpaper and add it to the folders ? I can't find it
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] dantheman122:
Sorry Anymoore, not sure what you're getting at :/

But I used Missed It! for my lockscreen with Widget Locker, works awesome.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Anymoore:
Hmm I will try to explain you with other words.

Actually i have a problem at this step :

I just created the 5 folders, from the previous step.

But now i don't understand this step, where can i activate multipicture ( it doesn't appears in my homescreen apex :/ ) and add the 5 customs screen.

Thank you
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] @xDeepS:
Glad you got it running! And thanks for helping others.

I just swipe down for my notification bar. I like dantheman122's suggestion.

Hadnt thought about the desktop indicator.

I am working on a MissedIT layout for the lockscreen :)

Oh you have two apps confused. The Multipicture app is a live wallpaper. Other app is Simi Folder.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] dantheman122:
This is using the Widgetlocker Clock/Slide and Missed It.

Any chance of you editing the wallpaper so we can have Notification Bar showing?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] @xDeepS:
Hm yeah, Ill make one tonight.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Aur0r4:
Hey just want to thank you for this amazing work. Starting tonight but I was sooo tired ..takes around 2-3 hours to set it :silly: but i am really happy with your Drop UI now :) ...its so smooth lol

Keep it up! Will try to donate you asap.

edit: ok it seems like it has a huge battery drain :( after 5 1/2 hours battery is at 35 % (without using s3)

edit2: everythink is ok now, see my next post
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] @xDeepS:
Hm what apps do you have running. The only intensive apps are Minimalistic Widget and WidgetLocker. Try uninstalling it. Ill make a stock locker theme later.

Its just a few widgets, I get 10 hours on full battery..
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Aur0r4:
Hey it looks like ist better today. Only 9 % After three hours. I think it was just a bug with an app.

I write back later! :)

edit:

Everything is fine ;)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Aur0r4:
Question!

Is it possible to increase the refresh rate of the minimalistic clock?:confused: I am asking because its a little bit annoying when I want to look up the time and it shows me the wrong time :(
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] @xDeepS:
Uh it does it realtime.. thats weird. Might want to contact the app devs.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Aur0r4:
I mean .. i can see the correct time, but it needs 1-2 second(s) to show it.

For example: I activate the display and look for the time..it shows me 7 25PM ...after 1-2 second(s) it is correct with 7 28PM
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] @xDeepS:
Oh I have noticed that on lockscreen.. still looking for an alternative. Might do something in the next update.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] hykhleif:
god that is a long long process how I wish this could be a flashable zip .

Would making this great theme a flashable them possible at all
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Aur0r4:
Mhh...cool i am curious :)

Just do it...it is worth it :)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Aur0r4:
I have just read, that you can let minimalistic-text update even when display is off! The feature is available in the donate version of MT and come to the free version soon.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] @xDeepS:
Aha thanks, guess we found a fix.

And making a flashable zip is a pain in the butt. Plus we have a few paid apps used so it isn't possible.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] @xDeepS:
Just got done with the statusbar version. Heres how it looks like. Anyone want it?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] dantheman122:
Love to try it out, also, anyone know if there's any way to back up widgets with Apex?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] @xDeepS:
I switched to using Nova.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] bragon2010:
Can you share the wallpaper in this captures?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] dantheman122:
Ah and it does it well? What grid size did you use for Nova? I tried it but didn't see 7x10
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Z3roCz:
I would be really interested in the updated version!:)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] sambwel:
Just wanted to say thanks for sharing a detailed howto on this slick theme. I worked through it on my gf's phone last night and although the way everything is set up doesn't quite suit her, it's been a great learning process for me and will be the jumping off point for working on a customised set up tailored to her needs & tastes :)

So thanks again for sharing knowledge instead of just a flashable zip, really useful and good for the community!!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] @xDeepS:
You're welcome! Not a fan of flashable zips myself for such easy things.

I'll prepare the PSD files for the update with a new wallpaper pack.

7x7 works quite well for me.

Have a look: http://youtu.be/evoF68fQEW4

Also, one thing I added was links to each screen on top of the screen's name, like "Shortcut to Page 1" under System, "Shortcut to Page 2" under Social etc. The 7x10 grid fits perfectly with the 2 icons under the right name and they sit just above the dock so if you press the name it takes you to that page.
