[G1 Apps and Games] M..N:
Hi I'm just wondering if there are any updates.
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
Nothing yet, I just rewrote the page changing system to allow for different animations other than just sliding. This also uses androids animation system rathen then my own rigged version.
[G1 Apps and Games] mgorman:
looks promising. will give it a shot on my mytouch when its released.
[G1 Apps and Games] Vez02:
real nice!ill be watching out for this..!:D
[G1 Apps and Games] M..N:
Ok thanks is there still going to be widget support
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
There will be no android widget support, but i may try to make my own plugin system to allow developers to create their own tabs.
[G1 Apps and Games] rawrjustin:
i've actually tried to make something like this a while back

i had the idea of creating a homescreen that would be similar to the HTC touchflo homescreens with a sliding lower panel of options similar to what you have here, however since I could not for the life of me figure out a way to make that sliding work, I settled with buttons and eventually scrapped the project as it did not turn out the way I wanted it to.

if you would like any help developing your project let me know.
[G1 Apps and Games] jay652:
If there's any way to make a widget tab, it would be a really great enhancement. To be honest, no widget support would be a dealbreaker for me, and probably many others. Keeping all widgets confined to one tab would be tolerable, but widgets seem to be the future of home screens and home replacement apps.
[G1 Apps and Games] grivad:
Kidder.. Dearborn.. Gilfillan..

Go Beavs!!

This looks great, btw.
[G1 Apps and Games] grooves12:
A plugin system would be nice... but like others, I think no widget support is a deal breaker. Widgets are what allow people to make their device THEIR device. They can customize their main screen in any way they want to make the app they use most right there front and center. They are easy to install and remove, and there are a TON of them out there.

Without widget support, your homescreen replacement, would have to do absolutely everything under the sun in order to be able to meet the needs of the masses. That is not possible for one developer, and you are not likely to get much support for custom tabs from other developers if you don't have the largest user base. Why reinvent the wheel??

I think a Widget TAB might be a viable solution... and I know standard widget support can be done in home screen replacements as others before you have done it. Maybe check with the developers of those apps and see if they can help you implement a widget system?
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
Haha yeah just finishing my first term.

As for widgets I'm not sure how much work would go into creating a page for widgets. Looking at the Launcher source code it seems like it will be a lot of work.

Personally I'm not a fan of widgets they are limited that's partially why I'm creating this app. It will be able to be themed and that's something that is not there with widgets. By creating a new application that instead of using widgets the "tabs" can have full access to all the rest of Androids functions is a superior method of doing things.

What widgets are actually used that much that they become necessity on the homescreen? The only widgets I see being used regularly are data stream i.e. (Twitter and blogs)

As for the code to do it, I can look at the launcher source and see how its done, but its going to require some time to integrate it into my application and in probably not an option for an initial release.
[G1 Apps and Games] M..N:
Thanks for the info I can understand what you are saying about the widgets. I'm liking what you have created so far and think you should definatley create a plugin system. Keep at it good luck.
[G1 Apps and Games] Icebergxx:
Idk didn't the guy say he was making this for himself and thought to share just to be nice?

If the guy doesn't want widgets he doesn't want widgets.

I personally use Weather and flip clock, overclock, message + text widget, and the pure calendar widget but if we compile a good list.

I'm sure he could just make his own tab to be better than the widgets.

Like if anyone's used 91iHome beta.

It has widget support, but it really doesn't go well with anything.

This is Manilla from Windows, not something new for Android.
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
Yeah like your list of widgets I don't see many users wanting to use them with my app beacuse there is already weather, a clock, calendar and text tabs.

As for saying this is Manilla from Windows, as it was the original idea for this project I think its turning into a hybrid of my own ideas and the manilla concept. For instance the top clock bar always stays on top.
[G1 Apps and Games] M..N:
I agree with iceberg if those could be incorporated in to the tabs I would be more than satisfied. It would then eliminate the need for the widgets.
[G1 Apps and Games] Icebergxx:
And since you're not making widget you can add some awesome animations to the applications :D

Lol
[G1 Apps and Games] jay652:
What about the Music widget?
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
Got plans for music control, im not sure if i should have a whole tab for it or a popup control when you push the volume buttons or something cause as far as i know you cant get the album artwork from the default music player.
[G1 Apps and Games] M..N:
Maybe you can have a tab with a list view of songs and music controls on the bottom.
[G1 Apps and Games] /checco\:
where i can download this apk? is it faster or not?
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
This is still in early development so there is no apk yet.
[G1 Apps and Games] Icebergxx:
That guy, what a jerk haha.
[G1 Apps and Games] Audinator:
I would definitely pay money for this, it looks awesome!!!!
[G1 Apps and Games] beatle7777777:
are you thinking about adding the ability to re-arrange the tabs? if not that might be a cool idea for a future update :)
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
yeah re-arranging tabs is a planned feature
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
what android version are most people using?

Im not sure which version to mkae it work for first currently everything works on 1.6.
[G1 Apps and Games] M..N:
I personally use 1.6 although others may be using hero roms which run 1.5 so maybe make it compatible with both. Also how the progress on the app anything new? Eta?
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
No eta, ive started working on the messaging part just loading the most recent message, i think im going to make it like the hero kinda where you can flip through the most recent messages of all the threads.
[G1 Apps and Games] M..N:
Ok thanks for the info any new screenshots?
[G1 Apps and Games] Icebergxx:
Lol I tried to get this application developed awhile ago no one's really picked it up and maybe you'd like to give it a shot

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=567240
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
Hrrmm that might be better suited for a full sms replacement but that would not be to complicated to make. I could maybe do something on a smaller scale for this app.

I've thought about trying to make a custom skinned android like fully skinned with better list views and stuff.
[G1 Apps and Games] Phil_McRevis:
I would develop for 1.6 because most people are either on a sense rom running 1.5 or on a 1.6 rom. people on sense roms are probably there for the home screen but many people on 1.6 are looking for ways to make it prettier.

Looking forward to a beta :P
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
Yeah im going to stick with 1.6 they patched the hidden calendar access in 2.0 so it does not work. And i cant figure out a new way to do it yet. So 1.6 it is.
[G1 Apps and Games] shinta4e:
awesome

is there any progress report on this? ive been watching the thread for awhile but the lack of updates makes me nervous
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
nothing really new yet basic loading of sms is done though, i have some work projects to get caught up on before i continue development.
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
Quick update on progress.

2 New screens on 1st post.

I've dont a lot of under the hood work, Also almost finished Messaging tab, I'm still not sure the best way to do this tab yet. Right now it loads the latest 10 messages.
[G1 Apps and Games] M..N:
Looking Good. I think maybe for the messaging tab you could load each person you have recieved or sent a message to and when you click their name it expands and shows the messages. any eta btw?
[G1 Apps and Games] severedembrace:
Are we gonna be able to customize things such as fonts, color, etc.?
[G1 Apps and Games] Godson1227:
:D

Good point I think that is what android is really missing on right now they almost have the "you" down but not quite once we're able to customize these things if will definitely be a phone that gets "YOU" lol Hope this makes it I love the look can't wait
[G1 Apps and Games] Alleviate:
Looking good :). Can't wait for the beta!
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
I have plans to make it fully themable.

As for the messaging tab, I have tried that playing around with the Threads for the individual people, but the only problem I have yet to figure out is that I cant get the correct name to show.
[G1 Apps and Games] sxfx:
If I could make a suggestion. You should try and make this metamorph compatible. Then themeing would be a blast.

Im not really sure how hard that is to do, but just putting it out there :)...
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
I think metamorph edits the files in the apk on its own?

I'm currently planning on having all themes stored on the sd-card.
[G1 Apps and Games] JAguirre1231:
It does, but it needs to resign the apk's, which hinders its support for third-party apps
[G1 Apps and Games] wizern23:
will this work on 1.5 or is it built for 1.6.
[G1 Apps and Games] SirFenwick:
Looking good. Can't wait to give it a go.
[G1 Apps and Games] alritewhadeva:
cantwait :D
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
This is built on 1.6. It may or may not work on 1.5
[G1 Apps and Games] jgu71424:
Wonder??

I wonder if anyone will make a ROM out of this uhmmmm??? :)
[G1 Apps and Games] tonira:
looking good:) can't wait to try out
[G1 Apps and Games] Rayman0625:
Uhm is right. That's all I really have to say to that response. I don't think you understand what a ROM is so http://lmgtfy.com/?q=What+is+a+phone+ROM%3F.

Enjoy.
[G1 Apps and Games] g1doobie:
Looks great! Can't wait for BETA
[G1 Apps and Games] inuyasha84:
Really looking forward to this.
[G1 Apps and Games] dying4004:
yeah man. looks really cool.
[G1 Apps and Games] mswiss:
looking great when are we gonna be able to give this a go?
[G1 Apps and Games] Phil_McRevis:
do you have a twitter page we can follow? or anything with updates about what your working on? Because this is one beautiful app and i'll be one of the first to jump at the opportunity to see it work.
[G1 Apps and Games] 3miki3:
BETA

made beta version please
[G1 Apps and Games] maxisma:
I would love to follow you on twitter or something like that to see this great thing progressing =)
[G1 Apps and Games] g1doobie:
The threadstarter should give updates through twitter. Would like to foollow the progress of this.
[G1 Apps and Games] bubonik:
A minor request, could you make this run as a launcher.apk replacement. The downloadable home replacements run both the stock launcher and the replacement at the same time. Slows down the g1 too much.
[G1 Apps and Games] SirFenwick:
Here is his personal twitter(I believe).

http://twitter.com/jasonpeinko

He follows all what you need for Android, so I'm sure its him. But of course he hasn't been active in the last week. Most likely winter vacation.

Probably see him tomorrow.
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
Yeah thats my twitter, I generally dont use it, I could try to start using it.

I have not been working on this app for a while, just started a new term. Ill have some time this weekend though to work on it.
[G1 Apps and Games] tmhung:
nice work . when can i use it :)
[G1 Apps and Games] guitargler:
Looks beautiful, I'm impressed. This might actually have switching off Rosie sometimes xD

Although I must say, when I saw the thumbnails of the screenies, I thought TouchFlo. But it's definitely not that. Again, awesome work, can't wait for a beta.
[G1 Apps and Games] blackgin:
Man release this as fast as you can xD
[G1 Apps and Games] tyweezy:
dude i would love to test this out
[G1 Apps and Games] M..N:
any update??
[G1 Apps and Games] Icebergxx:
How are things man?
[G1 Apps and Games] mobilemaster999:
How long is this going to take

dude apps have been done in less than a month
[G1 Apps and Games] tehseano:
How ignorant are you? Maybe he has a wife, maybe he has a child, maybe he has a job, maybe he has school, maybe he just has a life and doesn't have to spend every waking second making an app for free, just for little ol' you.

If you want this app to be released, how about sitting down, learning java, and writing it yourself you ungrateful ****.
[G1 Apps and Games] 3miki3:
a

But he can make *BETA* Manilla homescreen on market (this no complete version) and if he will have time, uprage it.
[G1 Apps and Games] tehseano:
People don't like releasing beta's to the public. Many features wont work, and first impressions last a lifetime. You can wait just like the rest of us, and simply support the developer, and wait as long as you have to for a release. When it's ready, it will be released.
[G1 Apps and Games] lilwing:
I get a little sadder everytime i find this thread and there's no progress..seems like a good idea id love to try it
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
I have not forgotten about this project, but for those of you that keep asking, it will be ready when it is. I have other things to do most of the time they play with android. I have school which takes up most of my time and usually when im not working on school work I work as a freelancer to get some income. The rest of my time is spent doing things I enjoy which includes this project.
[G1 Apps and Games] zonern:
Oooh yeeaaah

I'm really excited for this and can't wait for it.:)
[G1 Apps and Games] blackgin:
No more development? :(
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
There is, just really really slow.
[G1 Apps and Games] Purple Drama Llama:
Looks very nice! keep up the good work!
[G1 Apps and Games] Mast3rmatt:
Can we see the newest build of this?
[G1 Apps and Games] M..N:
Any update on this app. Any new screens. keep up the good work
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
Nothing new to show yet, I'm working on getting things usable, even if its only a few tabs working ill have something to show soon hopefully.

Do you guys like to be able to change / see your wallpaper? I'm trying to decide if the interface should be more solid colors and have larger elements or have more transparency and show more of the background.
[G1 Apps and Games] M..N:
I prefer seeing my wallpaper. but you could try and implement a feature where the transparency of the colour could be changed.
[G1 Apps and Games] zonern:
yeah i like being able to see the wallpaper to. if you need some input id be happy to test for you =] devinh91@gmail.com

[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
everything else is unskinned elements, not much to look at, I might release something once i finish up a couple more of the tabs.
[G1 Apps and Games] M..N:

I have a life other than making FREE apps for people.

Anyways about the big clock on top, on all screens or the just the home screen?

just the homescreen. means there will be more space on other screen.

Here is how the new homescreen is looking, probably going to have some kind of notifications at the bottom, but im not sure yet.

Looking Good, maybe have a strip of notifications under the clock on the homepage. although with the notifications bar it may not be needed. none the less very good.

Sent from my T-Mobile G1 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
Newer homescreen,

notifications at the bottom might have to little space, i might bunch the weather and clock up top. I'll have to make my own icons eventually (which will look like poop), but I cant use htcs.
[G1 Apps and Games] M..N:
Looking good. Maybe ask some themers to provide some icons. also any eta?
[G1 Apps and Games] jasonpeinko:
No eta, no one part is fully functional yet.

Today i downloaded the newest version of Babbler for Android. i use Babble as my main facebook app because the official one is still lacking a bit. i do infact use the widget that comes with the official app though because its very nice. the newest version of babbler is pretty lame and a lot of the functions dont work as well as they did on the last version. is there anyway to revert back? i looked at the developers website but i couldnt find anything useful there. any help would be great!
[G1 Apps and Games] sonikamd:
More than likely if you weren't able to make a back up of the older version your out of luck. IMO the best thing to do is let the developer of the app know what problems you're having with it. Most of the android app devs are pretty quick to respond to issues with their apps. If it affects you it probably affects others.

Make a comment in the market or even better if available send them an email with as many details as possible.

Hi guys,

I was just wondering if anyone knows of an app on the market that will let you use your g1 as a bluetooth keyboard or mouse. I've seen a couple of similar apps but they seem to use wifi or USB. Ideally, it would turn the phone into a Bluetooth HID device so it could be used with a PC or even a Playstation.

Any pointers would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Cyanogen will be implementing bluetooth obex in the next update for his rom. It might be possible to build upon that to enable these features. Cyanogens Rom

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rvashi:
Hey everyone!

Just as the title states, is it possible to use the entire AT&T Stock ROM but instead of Manila that comes on the AT&T ROM, can we use Sense 2.1 or 2.5/2.6? This would mean keeping the entire ROM intact including the themes and everything.

This would be just like having the HTC Stock ROM but including all of AT&T stuff from apps to themes/design/colors.

Is this possible or is there a pre-built kitchen that we can use to make this possible?

I've made ROMs from pre-built kitchens but nothing too much more in depth than that.

Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] chadster214:
its possible for you to install the Sense 2.1 but the "My Location" feature will not work since it needs other files for it to work. you will need google location, HTC Geoservice and HTC Framework. I'm about to cook a Bloatfree ATT ROM with Sense2.1 but i'm currently getting an error cooking the ROM once I get this error squared away I will be realeasing it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rvashi:
Thanks for the answer! I'll keep a look out for your ROM.

I totally didn't even think about Location Services.

I simply like the color scheme of the AT&T Stock ROM (clock, background, and tabs) in addition to couple of the AT&T apps including AT&T Navigator and AT&T Wifi.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] chadster214:
on my AT&T ROM it will have the regular Sense 2.1 colorscheme, however you can always change wallpaper. AT&T Navigator and AT&T WIFI are only software which I've seen floating around in this forum.
