Someone on Reddit had a Portal themed lock screen. I took it one step further.

- The number above the barcode is battery percentage. This is also done with a very small SiMi Clock

-The icons are hard-coded to the wallpaper, then a blank icon is placed over them using Desktop Visualizer to create the links (blank png for icons linked)

    Looking clean and simple with the black/white :D

    Very nice. I saw this on reddit yesterday.

    Awesome work! Black and white contrast really balance it all out.

    I saw this yesterday, and added a few of my on tweaks to it, I’ll post it later today.

    Very nice color coordination :P

    What icons did you use?

  9. Posted 2011/06/03 at 5:07 pm | Permalink

    Liking it. You could go a step further and try to make all the icons be Portal related. G.L.A.D.O.S.’s “eye” for the Camera, a Radio icon for Music, Cake for Internet Browser, etc. Not sure what could be used for Phone or Text. Maybe written out direct quote from a turret: “Is anyone there?” for Phone.

    How can you set this as a wallpaper? Android wallpapers need to be 960×800.

  11. Posted 2011/06/15 at 8:44 pm | Permalink

    Awesome idea, nicely reproduced. Portal reference = instant win :)

  12. Posted 2011/07/22 at 1:25 pm | Permalink

    Pretty cool! :D

  13. Posted 2011/08/03 at 2:39 am | Permalink

    @davidbisiach I second that, how did you achieve that look with the wallpaper?

  14. Posted 2011/09/07 at 12:53 am | Permalink

    I don’t understand how you can get the blank png icons directly over the icons on the wallpaper. It always snaps to whatever the grid is set to.

  15. Posted 2011/09/07 at 2:40 am | Permalink

    @Matthewscottk Change the grid. I have mine set to 6 columns 8 rows. Works great.

    @eventhorizon @davidbisiach There are ways to make it a “non-scrolling” wallpaper that takes a screen resolution of 800*480 or whatever your screen res is. I find the easiest way is to use wallpaper wizardrii (app in market) to set a non-scrolling wallpaper.

  16. Posted 2011/09/07 at 3:41 am | Permalink

    Pretty cool wallpaper but would be easier if it just had icons. I don’t even use the phone part since I am deaf. Obviously the music too.

  17. Posted 2011/09/07 at 9:15 pm | Permalink

    What did you use to change your grid layout?

  18. Posted 2011/09/10 at 8:40 pm | Permalink

    Thanks a lot Eric, that fixed it. Got this up and running and everyone loves my phone =) Awesome theme JoP!

  24. Posted 2011/12/27 at 1:38 am | Permalink

    I’m almost there! Struggling with simiclock though, any chance I could have more info on the settings you used?

  25. Posted 2011/12/27 at 1:46 am | Permalink

    so cool, how to make like that?

  26. Posted 2011/12/27 at 3:03 am | Permalink

  28. Posted 2011/12/27 at 6:12 pm | Permalink

    got the SimiClock great, but how can i get done the desktop vizualizer with the icons in the wallpaper?

  29. Posted 2011/12/27 at 10:32 pm | Permalink

    I made this for 800*960 resolution : http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/7329/portalwallpaper.jpg
    Result (HTC Desire) : http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/1894/device20111227232634.png
    But I can’t get the battery percentage in a place closer from the barcode.

  30. Posted 2012/01/12 at 9:39 pm | Permalink

    @ Goryini or 4wsm – any chance you could explain how you got the battery barcode working?

  31. Posted 2012/01/12 at 9:41 pm | Permalink

    Nevermind, I am guessing the barcode is just part of the wallpaper with a small battery % above it

  32. Posted 2012/01/26 at 6:47 am | Permalink

    I made my own version of this with edited assets from your own, using icons from the black_minimalist theme instead of the desktop visualiser system. Thanks for the inspiration! Totally amazing work.
