I've already confessed about my obsession about Sense UI developed by htc for Android, and I've already posted instructions on how to get its theme running on NITDroid, however, I couldn't help but to gimp a little bit, and voila! I've got it working in Maemo by the use of the best widget engine - Queen Beecon. Screenies: Sense 2.3 theme on Android (NITDroid) image courtesy of "MyNokiaN900" Sense 2.3 theme under QBW I can't see much of a difference, can you? Now enough talk, Let's rock: Prerequisites: Download Sensible_maemo.zip https://rapidshare.com/files/1130884...ible_maemo.zip Extract its contents (Sensible_Beecons, Sensible_Clock, sense bkground.jpg) to the root folder of your N900 (./MyDocs) Open Xterminal and execute: Code: root mv /home/user/MyDocs/Sensible_Clock/* /home/user/.queen_beecon_dir/ Wget Code: apt-get install wget Leafpad Clock Operation: Add a new Queen Beecon Widget on your desktop, enter its settings (tap the wrench tool icon) --> advanced --> yes --> import file to buffer In the dialogue box, go to Nokia N900 --> Sensible Beecons --> sensible_hr1 Returning back to QBW settings tap on export buffer to beecon This should take you back to the desktop for a while, then back to the first settings dialogue, on the title (Queen BeeCon Widget Settings [idx] note down the id in your head or on a paper, then tap save & run Reapeat steps 1,2,3,4 for sensible_hr2, sensible_mn1, sensible_mn2 After you've got all of the 4 beecons with their ids noted, insert 2 new beecons, and go to advanced, then import file to buffer, and choose sensible_tab and export it to beecon for each of these 2 new beecons, no need to note down id Carefully, add the last beecon and go to advanced, then import the file sensible_dash to buffer and export it to beecon. You'll be taken to the desktop for a few seconds, then back to the settings dialogue box. Tap on Edit Cmd, in the Command: section you will have something like that: Code: y=id34[]m=id26[]d1=id53[]d2=id23[]w=id43[]h1=id3[]h2=id4[]h3=id5[]h4=id6[] Erase the id next to y= m= d1= d2= w= The final code should look like: Code: y=[]m=[]d1=[]d2=[]w=[]h1=idx[]h2=idx[]h3=idx[]h4=idx[] where x is the number of the id you noted, and [] is the weird box symbol. Tap on save, then back to settings, scroll down to Update Policies & GPS/location. Change all the (No)s to (yes)s and change @Interval to 30 sec Scroll down to the remember me value, and clear that box don't let any number in it. Finally tap save & run, and rearrange the widgets ! Weather Operation: Download attached YahooWeather.txt to the root folder of your N900 (./MyDocs) Open it via leafpad Code: leafpad /home/user/MyDocs/YahooWeather.txt Search for the line Code: "http://uk.weather.yahoo.com/england/newcastle..." Erase it (what's written between the "") Go to this link: http://weather.yahoo.com/ Search for your location by name, not by postal code Copy the address of that webpage and paste it between the "" in the file ctrl+s on your N900's keyboard to save Ex: "http://uk.weather.yahoo.com/england/newcastle...." would turn to: Code: "http://weather.yahoo.com/united-states/florida/miami-2450022/" Note: By using this, you're experiencing some of my very crappy gimping, so any graphics guru (Qosmio, Switch_...) are wlecomed to enhance the .pngs. Oh and BTW this also works seamlessly on the modified portrait hildon-desktop:
root mv /home/user/MyDocs/Sensible_Clock/* /home/user/.queen_beecon_dir/
apt-get install wget
y=id34[]m=id26[]d1=id53[]d2=id23[]w=id43[]h1=id3[]h2=id4[]h3=id5[]h4=id6[]
y=[]m=[]d1=[]d2=[]w=[]h1=idx[]h2=idx[]h3=idx[]h4=idx[]
