Im not big on creating new threads but I noticed alot of threads asking about removing bubbles so I created some apks of mymode themes that have the bubbles removed. enjoy
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8756559/mymodes.zip
EDIT: Should mention I am using SlideMeRoot5r1. I haven't tested it on stock or other roms, but it should work.
ok I have included system themes now. just push these to /system/app/"themename".apk
example: go into recovery and in adb do: adb push C:\Android\Hoops.apk /system/app/Hoops.apk

Great stuff! Also works fine on a non-rooted phone. Is there anyway you can put something under the icon text? Those of us with light backgrounds have a tough time reading the text.
Any way you could do this for Nest? I mainly use that theme with different wallpaper. Awesome job btw.

Only issue I came across is that the preview images for these do not load in the mymodes app when you're changing the themes.
Also, randomly it froze up and kept trying to reload the home page but kept freezing and repeating. If this happens, just power down and back on.
It'd be great to see the other themes get this as well
Previews showed for me, I really like these as well.

all you need is astro. these apks are not signed the same way market apps are signed so non-rooted phones can install them also

my phone is not rooted.
I got the issue solved now.
This is just a warning for those with non rooted:
Your phone could freeze up from these modified theme files.
If they do, you will not be able to get past the mytouch slide startup screen.
If you get frozen you will have to do a long battery pull (i let me out for almost 7 hours, i'm sure its shorter, i just did it while i was as work), then boot into recovery mode. This shoot then boot to the red triangle/exclamation. pull battery again (short pull), power phone up to the boot manager and do a fastboot. Hopefully if anyone else goes thru this, it will help them. I wouldnt want to see anyone else freaking out like i was this morning.
Note:Hard reset wont fix this issue
I have been waiting on this for quite a while. VTL Launcher! A scrolling dock bar across the bottom in landscape and portrait orientation. Gojimi of the GTablet devs has done it again. Still beta but works great and is built using ADW Launcher source.
I installed it earlier today on my GTab and loved it, so decided to give it a shot on the Nook and it works great on it too. As I said, it is still beta so there are a lot more features to be implemented over the coming releases.

Be sure to give gojimi a big old thanks for all his great work when ya go to grab it!
Have fun..... HTR

Hmm I'm using opera on the nook and when I go to download it it gives me the file as launcher.zip. I've also tried to download on the computer using IE and I get a zip file as well. Tried dolphin and it downloads as an apk so thats weird but thanks for your help.

That's very strange. Must be an Opera thing, you could have most likely downloaded it as a zip file then renamed it to .apk afterwards. When all else fails you should try the stock Android browser which is what I always use for downloading.
Glad to hear ya finally got it downloaded as an apk.

I've had the same thing happen to me several times - the dock reverts back to the default, and restarting the app fixes it.

I have had that happen a time or two and all I did to fix it was rotate my nook to portrait mode then back to landscape.
Just a heads up, v1.4 beta is now available from same thread. Has a few fixes and a few new features. Most notably, right and left side docks.
Don't know if the aforementioned bug was fixed in this release or not. Let me know if that bug pops back up, will do the same for y'all if it happens to me.
Sent from my GTablet running CM7
The addition of side docks and a centered bottom dock finally made me switch. So far its good
It's interesting and pretty slick already... I tried it for about an hour and then went back to Zeam.
I wish someone would create a launcher that let me specify which edge of the screen I want the dock on and then have it stay there even when rotated from portrait to landscape and vice-versa. The icons themselves should rotate, of course, so they are always facing up, but I want them to rotate in place, not move to another "wall" when I rotate the device.
bump: A lot of the bugs have been fixed in v1.5

I already downloaded like 20 different ones and they all don't work at all. I enabled them and tried to use them in dolphin mini and messaging and by simply holding the keyboard pop up button. It only activates the stock cm7 keyboard. I went into keyboard options and selected the keyboards and when I go to messaging and open keyboard it's the cm7 one. When i press the settings key it only shows the cm7 keyboard...

You have to long press a text box and choose input method... this is fundamental android options...

Yes, I'm fully aware of that function. However the only method that is allowed is the default keyboard option. Know of a specific keyboard app that is bigger, nicer, ans easier than the stock cm7 keyboard that works on all system apps and dolphin mini?

First "Enable" then "Long Press" ...If your phone cant enable more keyboards, you might as well throw it out the window for an iPhone now.

Please don't take this the wrong way...
If you download a keyboard.. for example the "Gingerbread Keyboard" from the market, (Which is the one I use and looks much nicer than stock and is resizable to fit your needs). Then you go into the settings menu and enable this keyboard from the Language/Keyboard options menu. Then you go into a text message or something and longpress --> input method.. you WILL see two keyboards there, one Android keyboard, and the other will be your downloaded keyboard...
If you choose the downloaded one, it will systematically
change your keyboard across all apps within android to that one...
This is what I was speaking of... and this WILL do what you are asking...
If this is not clear please let me know..
^^ What a nice guy you are

Just tried downloading gingerbread keyboard. It says package file was not signed correctly. I'll try closing market and try again. I'm running the latest cm7 for the atrix.

I installed hackers keyboard and it doesn't show up in the input method list. Trust me i've done this so many countless times on none cm7 roms. Just never tried it in cm7. I believe it will not work. I don't like that comment above where the guy seems frustrated explaining it to me. I already know exactly what to do. I am doing everything 100% correctly. However because of the fault of cm7, will not allow any other input method other than stock to show up in the input method field. Please confirm.
*On a fresh latest cm7*
Later
By any chance have you flashed any kernels?
May be that if so...
Also, try reinstalling the rom if it's not too much trouble..
My last time I loaded CM7.. certain widgets would never show up in the widgets list...but after I flashed a second time, it would work.. Its real finicky.

I figured out what I was doing wrong. I have to only select 1 keyboard at a time even know it lets u select several at once. Kind of weird. Anyway Gingerbread fixall is pretty damn solid and I like it a lot. Not quite as amazing as the keyboard on Hyperdroid HD2 roms but it's a lot better than stock.
THANKS BRO
BTW - I pulled the latinIME.apk from the Hyperdroid hd2 rom and corrected permissions and I get force closes after reboot. Maybe it's because it's not QHD so it simply won't work. I wonder how easy it would be to port it over? I really love how that hyperdroid hd2 keyboard looks and it's the easiest to use.
Later
I noticed that if the keyboard installs as the same name as a keyboard you already have it will only show one when you long press. I have found that if your third keyboard has a unique name it will show as a third choice ... but I'm glad you got it worked out, I like the qhd one in my last post, it installs as 3vo keyboard and is kinda awesome transparent!

Hello,
I've recently installed the CM9 ROM (p4wifi v20) and so far its looking great! I understand that you can you use the volume keys to move the cursor when typing, in fact I think that I had this working once, but now I cannot find out how you set this up and get it working - any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Ackoman
The rom is aokp. Not cm9.
It is in rom control, under settings
oops. I meant the keyboard settings.

Ooops, yes you're right - I should have said aokp.
I still cannot find the settings you refer to I'm afraid - I've looked under rom control, and also in the keyboard settings (under language and input) but cannot see anything which refers to using the volume control to move the cursor. I'm probably just being dim. Would you mind sending a screenshot please?
Thanks,

go to inputs... look at all the keyboards... click on the settings icon to the right of the android keyboard.
the cursor setting will be in the middle. If you are not using the stock keyboard this may be why it is not working. Probably only works for it.

Hey, well its good to know that I am not alone! The weird thing is, for a short while I definitely had this working, immediately after flashing with the p4wifi rom, I've clearly done something since that has knackered it.
I did flip back to the CM9 ICS kang rom using rom manager a couple of times, but don't see why that should screw up anything in the aokp installation.
OK, perhaps I'm getting somewhere now - just put a fresh installation of aokp on my tab, and lo and behold I've now got the option to have the volume control move the cursor when typing!
I reckon something I restored or installed on my tab was screwing it up - will systematically retrace my steps and see when it stops working again, and will beam back the results here.
Thanks,

Right, it didn't take me long to get it to stop working - I installed gapps.zip, and straight away that screwed it! So, next question is, should I not install gapps? Or perhaps I'm using the wrong version? I'm using the version that I downloaded when I put the CM9 ICS rom on.
If I shouldn't use gapps, how do I get market on my tab?

OK, I'm a tw*t - just re read the installation instructions for aokp, and it specifically says do not use any other copy of gapps. So, I guess that solves that.

I love this feature, but I do not use the default keyboard. Would be nice if there was an app that enabled this feature for all keyboards.
I cannot solve this problem. The Sound Search widget doesn't appear in the widgets list in 4.4.2 or 4.4.3 (using love4k21's build, or rogersb11's build). I tried installed CM 10.1.3, and sure enough, I can add it no problem there. Other people seem to be able to add it with those builds. No idea why I'm unable to. I think actually the last time I was able to add it was when I was using an official CM build (10.2). Once I switched to non-official builds, it disappeared. Any ideas?
search
I know the widget you are talking about. Why it is missing, I have no clue. Pressing the search button (on the bottom right) should have the same functionality. You could also just add a voice search shortcut instead of the widget.
If you really really want it without installing a newer rom, use the google now launcher. By default it is on the home screen.
