PogoPlank - A SpringBoard UI Replacement

[Vasquez1978]

Wow, I was going to buy Pogoplank but after all the comments I guess I wont

[Tylus]

it's a great SB replacement.

been running it exlusively now for quite some time and love it.

I had problems initially with a theme some jack-*** uploaded, but it was all his fault. Not the programs.


I never have used the search function...so honestly don't miss it. I can do without it. It is annoying how the author of the program has gone 100% silent, but his site/program still promises an update.


it's worth the $2 IMO.

here are some screen shots of how mine is setup. 5 dock, custom glass orb icons, Bosspref for background swapping, custom winterboard icon/theme setup. tap to unlock/answer. I've culled parts and pieces from so many different themes that I cannot identify any one in particular. Other than the glass orb for the nifty dock styling. Running 50+ backgrounds that are PG-13 (for the most part)

went for as minimal/clear theme I could. whole point is to not obscure the background picture if possible

[Vasquez1978]

pretty nice dude!!! thats the theme i wanted (glass orb) but with all the posts was afraid to download it thinking it would crash my iphone 3gs.. ok then i will buy it and down load the glass orb them.. thx :-)

[Tylus]

thanks.

been tweaking it for about 2 months. think I'm about to do a full icon conversion to the entire glass orb pack. the icons just look so nice in the list since they are semi-transparent when compared against a normal icon

if I ever get it where I want it, I will upload it to here for the few, the proud, the Pogoplankers

I jailbroke about a year ago, and have been using PP for at least 6 months. I love it in conjunction with a 10 icon infinidock, glaskart (for clear icons), and GlasOrb for PP. I see my background clearly and everything I need is just a few clicks away.

My question is, how do I delete an app when using PP? Currently I have to turn of PP delete the app then re-enable PP. Is there a better way or is this just a limitation? Anyone figure this out?

Thanks

[Tylus]

that's how I do it. haven't figured out anything easier yet myself.

I just purchased and installed pogoplank, every thing worked but I was unable to change that handsome guy picture from the lockbackground to my preferred one. is anybody here knows how to do it? Thanks.

[Tylus]

pogoplank has nothing to do with the lock background

go to your photos and select a new background...or winterboard another background.

pogoplank only affects how the icons are listed around a semi-circle

[Upgrader]

Thanks for your quick advice but since i installed the appl I have the picture (attached) showed up on my lockscreen, do you know where it comes from? thanks.

[Tylus]

go into winterboard and deselect the wallpaper...any and all of them.

sounds like you installed a pogoplank skin and that background is part of that theme.


and like I said, go into your photo's and choose a new background...or use a different winterboard theme

[Tylus]

think I've got the hang of this thing now.

here is my first Pogoplank theme.

[lbroskee]

how do i change the names of folders and save it? i can make all my adjustments but then nothing saves, on a respring it even forgets what i did. and i can't turn it off

[Tylus]

SSH into the phone and copy a Pogoplank theme onto your computer.

Rename the folder to your preference, but keep it 1 word. Copy that to clipboard.

go into that folder and open the Theme.plist file.

you will see something like this. in the code below, change the part in bold EXACTLY TO MATCH WHAT THE FOLDER NAME IS. Even 1 digit difference will make it not work

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Name</key>
<string>Texas</string>
<key>WheelAlpha</key>
<integer>100</integer>
<key>AppListAlpha</key>
<integer>100</integer>
<key>FolderAlpha</key>
<integer>80</integer>
<key>CurrentFolderAlpha</key>
<integer>100</integer>
</dict>
</plist>

then make all of your changes, save and SSH back into the phone. the Pogoplank file location is in the root. /Library/Pogoplank








Added a few Pogoplank themes to the repository.


Pogoplank - Mustang Bullitt Theme
Pogoplank - Mustang Cobra Theme
Pogoplank - IronMan Theme
Pogoplank - University of Texas Theme



Please note, these themes are for the wheel, folders, and list only. A Wallpaper is included as well. These themes do not cover the dock or icons.

If you wish to use the wallpaper, SSH into the phone and move it from /Library/Pogoplank/Filename/ to the /Stash/Theme/ fodler. then Winterboard/Bosspaper

[lbroskee]

i can't change the names of the folders even if editing the actual pogoplank settings plist
