Guest Loconinja Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 (edited) Whatabout a speedometer style graphic? I have considered something like this: The benefit is that coding the needle movement would be fairly straightforward.

Guest Loconinja Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 This screen-shot shows my test widget (no graphics). The API returns the signal strength as ASU, which ranges from -1 (no signal) to 31. However, 16 or 17 seems to be enough for maximum bars on the standard signal strength icon.

Guest Loconinja Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 Got some initial graphics working now: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mobiholic Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 (edited) Looking great! With your findings about signal strength and the number of bars shown by the stock indicator this widget could become invaluable when testing a new device since the number of bars displayed isn't that accurate as a signal strength indicator... is it Apple :angry: Edited July 13, 2010 by mobiholic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to decide how my widget will report the signal strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest yosemite-sam Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 (edited) @Loconinja, is it possible to get a copy of your golden gate bridge wall paper? does it span afew screens like the uk o2 one?

I need to decide how my widget will report the signal strength. Can we get an extreme beta version? I too use ADW without the status bar. If not, looking good man...

It's the default wallpaper on the from-Dell Streak, and it spans 4 screens! I'll post them up later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you mate, that will be great! mines came with the O2 arena on it bit boring lol Edited July 14, 2010 by yosemite-sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Loconinja Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 (edited) Now this is embarrassing, but I cannot find the image files on my device. /system/Wallpapers only has one file in it. I have searched the whole device using Astro, and browsed everywhere using Root Explorer, but I cannot find them! Any ideas? What I did find were the files for the Dell start-up animation. Edited to add: OK, a bit of Googling tells me they are in Launcher.apk. Finding a way to extract them now. Interesting. Launcher.apk only contains the thumbnail versions. I still cannot find the full-screen versions. :angry: Edited July 14, 2010 by Loconinja Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest fards Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 looking good so far.. I was really excited when it said H on mine, but then I noticed data wasn't even connected... switched back to G as soon as I turned it on.. like the airplane mode smiley, nice touch :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Loconinja Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 Android 1.6 doesn't seem to be able to distinguish between 3G and HSDPA, so you will never see a true H unfortunately. It showed briefly as it is the default image. I'll change that in the next version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest IceXcube84 Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Nice widget. That have been nice to have on a Huawei U8220. I have try it on my phone with 2.1 and it only showed a H and no data connected :angry: Nice if it have been working with UMTS/3G and HSPDA that we are using in Europe. Very nice widget anyway =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can install and place out the widget but it dont show any thing of the network connection or so. But i can test it for you and report if it work or not. It seems it dont support the phone networks we have in europe. Nice work you have put down on to make this very nice widget :angry: Edited July 15, 2010 by IceXcube84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
