Description

ShakeFLO for Sony Ericsson
by Yongobongo

----------------------------
WHAT IS IT
----------------------------
ShakeFLO is a dynamic wallpaper for 240x320 Sony Ericsson mobiles.
It makes use of the unique "shake" function of the phone to create a realistic auto-rotating simulation of the HTC TouchFLO interface.
ShakeFLO completely replaces your standby/desktop screen on your Sony Ericsson mobile, so you can remove the operator and time/date from your layout_main.xml for a much cleaner, sleeker look.
ShakeFLO includes widget support (which are auto-rotated with the phone, as well as the built-in clock), so you can choose what you see on YOUR mobile. Included is my own Walkman "now playing" widget, and the source-code of this widget.
You can customise ShakeFLO to your liking with wallpaper, clock colour, clock format, turn auto-rotate on/off and use your own custom widget!

It's 100% free!

----------------------------
WALLPAPERS
----------------------------
The wallpaper is named wallpaper.jpg.
The recommended size for this file is 240x320.

Included is a sample wallpaper file. If you would like to use this wallpaper, copy it to the ShakeFLO folder on your phone and name it wallpaper.jpg.

If you do not want a wallpaper, simply delete wallpaper.jpg and the default background will be used.

----------------------------
WIDGETS
----------------------------
Widgets are saved in the ShakeFLO folder as "widget.swf", as they are loaded into ShakeFLO with this filename.
The widget dimensions are 240x100.
Widgets must be saved and exported in Flash Lite 2.0 format or else the phone will not read them.
The widget will automatically rotate with the phone.

IMPORTANT: When using variables stored in the _root of a widget, you MUST reference _root.(yourvariable).
This includes dynamic textfields. For example, in the Walkman Widget:
- There are 3 dynamic textfields
- There are 3 _root stored variables
- Each dynamic textfield's Variable property is referenced to _root.property (for example: _root.TITLE)
- For auto-rotation to work correctly it is recommended that any textfields embed their font into the file.

For an example of how widgets are made, see the source included for the Walkman widget.
