I really need your help... i'm looking for a good "post-it" application, BUT I want to display this note on the screen like a widget, and i don't wan't to type but draw the note.
On the TF300 there is a good app SuperNote, but i cannot display the note on the screen... And i've found many "note" application on GooglePlay, but all i've found it's only "typing on the keyboard" and this is not what i'm looking for, but draw.
I hope you understand (my english is not good...)
Thanks!

How about ColorNote Notepad Notes To Do?
I don't have enough posts to post a link to the play store
I haven't used it personally, but it looks like it has gotten good reviews
This might work maybe, I don't think you can write right on the widgets but you tap on the widget and you can write there, then it will appear on the widget. Haven't tried it myself though apmemo

I'm gearing up to get my first Andoid phone hopefully next month, and was wondering if there's a port or an app already out there that's similiar in look and functionality as S2U2?
thx.
There's Lockbot out there ;-)
It has iPhone lock style, Hero lock style, Donut lock style and even flair lock style!
Good new: it's free except uf you want to download skins (which doesn't even work on my magic) or want the flair theme (which is the ugliest one)
and even free version let you customise your own themes
cheers
Maybe "Lock 2.0" many skins available for this app!

Thanks!
Lock 2.0 sure looks just like it.
Yes,you can get a free demo or buy full version!
Just bringing this back up since I just got a new Evo and am coming from a Touch Pro which had S2U2. I have tried some of the options on Android, but have not found anything even close to S2U2.
Does anyone have any other thoughts on how to get my calendar entries, notifications, texts, etc to show up on my lock screen (it also needs to look as good as S2U2 did 2 years ago).
Thanks.
Check out WidgetLocker.
I think it's by far the best lock screen replacement, and is fully supported by the developers at the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732986
You should just youtube search "widgetlocker" and you'll see many video reviews of it in action. Note: hardly any of the videos go over the fact that it can change from stock Android slide to HTC slide even to iPhone slide to unlock.
And to rs1990, yes it can add whatever widget you can think of including ones relevant to everything you mentioned.
Funny that you just mentioned WidgetLocker. I am actually looking at that right now. It seems ok at this point, but not as polished as S2U2 is.
I actually think that the problem that I have right now is that the calendar widget kind of stinks. I am looking for a widget that just shows any upcoming events and nothing if there are none upcoming. The default one shows that obnoxious white box that says "No upcoming calendar events," which is ridiculous.
OK, I just found Pure Calendar and it looks somewhat promising. It will allow me to put a nice looking widget in WidgetLocker to show my entries. So, I am going to look into that a bit and see if it suits my needs.

WidgetLocker + Android Agenda Widget + Music Mod Widget + Beautiful Widgets = NO reason to ever unlock
You could try CalWidget

You might want to try CalWidget http://www.androlib.com/android.application.net-eggenstein-android-calwidget-qxjt.aspx - sorry I don't have the Marketplace url.
It's not bad. Can be a bit slow to load up and refresh but it's surprisingly good for a free productivity app. And it works well with WidgetLocker
Is there a way to get something beautiful and usefull like S2u2 for android? i think Lock 2.0 is a real flop, widgetlocker is ok but s2u2 is way better... i would say it's the best lockscreen i've ever seen.
There is nothing even close to S2U2 on android. I only miss S2U2 app from WinMo world. There was so many options/customizations..
I agree with both of the last 2 posts...S2U2 is unmatched on Android. I have "settled" on using WidgetLocker and Pure Calendar. It's ok, but not as good as S2U2.
I agree 100 percent with both of you. WinMo was ok... android is great... but damn... i miss s2u2 like hell.
s2u2 is the swiss pocketknife or Macgyver of lockscreens...
Yeap,
I also miss S2U2 from WinMo. I just bought a new android phone (ZTE Link) and I do miss S2U2. May A_C could port S2U2 for android? Does somenone knows him?
The application I think is closest to S2U2 is GOTO (although its paid :-()
Best,
Jº
WidgetLocker, as already mentioned in this thread, is a very capable, attractive, and flexible lockscreen replacement. There are also others on the market.
I for one won't miss the random "won't unlock" weirdness with S2U2, although infrequent, sometimes I had to yank the battery to get out of it as the screen would be frozen after. SOMETIMES I could long-power press and get the reboot dialog and I could get to a task manager and kill it but usually it was stuck.
Is there any possibility that the creator of WinMo S2U2 try to code that app for Android? Or make some coop with somebody who can do that for/with him?
Asked somebody something like this to creator of S2U2??
Thanks so much.

I can just agree to the above, the only thing i miss on Android is S2U2 and G-Alarm. I tried widget locker and i had to reinstall my whole system. When it was active i pulled the right thingy on the locked screen and then it was all black and locket. But i liked it the little i did see when i was exploring it. Now i don't dare to install it again..
EDIT:
Yesterday i tried LockBot but it could not get it to work at all, when i read what it could do it was ONE of the most imprtant thing i miss from S2U2, it was locking the hardware buttons. But nah... no go here either.
I never used S2U2, but what are the features all of you miss so much from it? In the videos I see on youtube, I don't really see anything that makes it standout from any other lockscreen, like WidgetLocker...
The key with widgetlocker is getting the right widgets installed to work with it, but because of that it is pretty much infinitely flexible.
Hello all any android apps like lockinfo intelliscreen from cydia, I'm mainly interested in seen my calendar in my lock screen ?

Ditto, and worth the price.
You can put widgets on the lock screen, multiple sliders for different functions, and a separate wallpaper. Heck, I even have my LastFM widget there for easy access without unlocking and my camera for the same reason.
I was looking for something similar, i was missing the mail addon for lockinfo, but i settled for widget locker + executive assistant. i think it's the best combination. though still not entirely like lockinfo (i'd like to be able to mark emails as read without accessing gmail app).
Im playing with executive assistant and am really liking it.
Thank you all..
Another vote for executive assitant. It's really good once you understand all the settings.
There are some nice apps out there that do these things and Widget Locker is ok, however coming from the iPhone myself and having used intelliscreen, widget locker is lacking in comparison. There is an app however that is almost identical to intelliscreen and I thing in some ways even better, its Executive Assistant. There are 2 versions a free version with ads, and the pay version. I liked the app so much I payed for it, but I think if you give this a try you wont be disappointed its really sweet!!
I've been looking for something similar to this as well! I'll have to try executive assistant out...
Don't know if anyone will see this, but I found executive assistant in my search for an intelliscreen replacement. I don't know if it fully does it for me though. The marking as read thing is killing me. What are the settings you suggest to make it good? Also anyone miss tlert?

Nothing lacks in comparison to the Iphone or any app on the Iphone for that matter.
Is there anything out for ICS like this?
Still Widget Locker. Runs great on ICS Passion.

Clearly, you never owned a jailbroken iPhone with lockinfo on it if you are making that statement. Several things are lacking in Android such as:
- Mail Enhancer
- Color mail labels
- and LockInfo.
While some alternatives come close, they are not good enough.
Hello!!
Sorry I forgot this was an English-speaking forum *face palm*.
I'm looking for a very minimalist pedometer. Something that could be integrated to UCCW or Minimalistic Text. Actually I only want the number of steps to be displayed, nothing too fancy.
Has anyone developped such app? I've looked everywhere on the Play Store but I didn't find anything really. I downloaded Accupedo Free but their widget is very ugly. :/
Thanks in advance.
EDIT:
So, what you want is podometer with a nice widget, right? Honestly I don't know if there's one, but Runstastic Podometer is pretty good.

No, actually I want a minimalist one. I wanted to add a UCCW widget that would just count the steps, I just want the numbers displayed with a rather small font...but thanks for the suggestion
Hey guys,
I'm trying to remember the name of an app which is a scrolling dock widget. Similarly to Launch-X... But I'm pretty sure it is not Launch-X that I'm thinking of.
Can anyone please recommend some apps like this?
Looking forward to hearing back.
I don't know an app that has only scrolling dock,it's a launcher that have scrolling dock. Holo launcher. I use it,and works pretty good.
Hey thanks for the reply. Maybe "scrolling dock" wasn't the best way to describe the widget. It is pretty much just a grid of selected apps, and you can scroll through them. Kinda like a folder, but you don't have to open the folder, it is always open... Showing apps on the home screen.

I am looking for a widget that does that too. I stumbled upon scrollcut which was described as such but it seemed to be an abandoned app. No updates and not working very well. I am still searching...
Hey sphinx1023,
Thanks for the reply.
Launch-X is a pretty good app. Seems to be unsupported these days as well (hasn't been updated in a while).
I haven't been able to recall the name of the app I was using originally, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't Scrollcut or Launch-X.
I'll keep you posted if it comes to me.
Thanks again.
--------EDIT----------
The app I have been thinking about might have been Folder Organizer.
I'll check it out when I get home.
I think I found it!

Try "Launchy Widget".
Awesome, thanks for sharing that sphinx1023.
Looks pretty good.
Hello
I used everything me since four weeks and missed really nothing in it. Today they announced to not continue the app and that they will turn off their servers.
I am really sad ?, do you know another launcher like that with production, this awesome search function and smartfolders?
I tried Google Now and Aviate but Google seems not to predict Apps and has only predict of weather or stuff like that. Aviate looks great but I cannot add any app to the home screen only widgets (or did I miss something?) And prediction is only in this small sidebar. Then I tried a version of Terrain Home ? (I had to download an apk as I live in switzerland) but it seems it have no prediction (or did I miss something?)
Which launcher could be my replacement for everythingme? I do not need 3D effects , but I did really like predictions, the awesome search function and smartfolders
Can someone propose me a replacemen??
Thank you
