but with a great design from scar45

​

Download:
bWidgetTest.apk-1.1.1.apk​

Changelog:

• 1.1.0: added settings page (when you add the widget to the home screen) to choose skin and to show "tab/dock" or just %, fixed install issues, centered the widget in home cell
• 1.0.1: added shadow behing text, app icon fixed
• 1.0.0: initial release

Old versions:

• bWidgetTest.apk-1.1.0.apk

Want to help ?

Source code: bWidgetTest-src-1.1.1.rar

Thanks for the widget. One suggestion though if you put the % level on the two meters it would make it easier to read. I think it is easy to remember which meter is tablet and which is dock. So only % would be needed. This makes the widget simplistic and easy to read.

As the poster says above the text needs changing. Most widgets or text for icons are done in white with a drop shadow on the text then no matter what color background you have you will always see it. At the moment I can't read the text at all with the water live wallpaper.

Otherwise great job.

 

[beeone42]

thanks for the idea, i've just made this modification

 

[flumpster]

Nice one.

I just came back here to post an updated version for you but you had already done it.
One quick question, did you zip align the apk or did you make other changes also because mine was 51k and yours is 66k.

Only changes I made were as follows on both your textviews.

android:shadowColor="#000000" android:shadowRadius="1.5" android:shadowDx="1" android:shadowDy="1" android:textColor="#ffffffff"

Interesting stuff nice to have a battery percentage for the dock since it got taken away with the updates. Thanks will give it a go, maybe you might make some other looks like the gauges look just an idea, thanks keep up the good work.

Forget about my earlier question. I just decompiled the new one and see you've added icon and preview graphics.

I went ahead and installed it...but does not seem to show anywhere on my TM...I am on Primornal 3.1 with the latest 1.4 kernal...

 

[king_dani]

installed, the widget does not show up in the list, stock 3.1 unrooted.

 

[beeone42]

I have the same issue. the widget chooser do not show the widget immediately. You can reboot to make it appear

 

[pnnorth]

Works absolutely fine for me on stock 3.1, thanks
