A few customizations things I would like help with
 
I just got a Droid, rooted it, flashed smoked v4.0 and am loving it.

I have handcent sms and it allows me to change the notification light, what I want to know is if there is any app to change the notification light for missed call, new email and new voicemail.


Also I have a email notification widget, and handcent that show the number of waiting messages on the widget. Is there a widget like this for voicemail?


Last, when the phone is on the dock and you take a call the screen doesn't rotate is there a way to make the call screen rotate?


I really love my droid and just want to do some of this customization, any way to do that?

I remember seeing an app in the market called Missed Call that supposedly offered color/vibration customizing based on types of calls and whatnot but I never tried it. Might work though.

Not sure about the voicemail notification.

Unfortunately there is no landscape version of the phone screen. I wish there was also. When using the car dock I try to keep it upright for this reason but on the desk dock there isn't much you can do :/

I probably didn't help too much haha sorry

+1 for "Missed Call", although when I tried it I had some F/C's related to it.

Thanks for the reply's missed call is good.

Just need a voicemail notification app now.

I've heard people talk about YouMail also but I've never tried it.

I know you didn't specify this... but similar widget to Handcent is Gmail Unread Count. 1x1 widget that shows how many unread/new messages in your gmail account. Also clicking it opens the gmail app. (you may like)

Thanks, yeah, I have that installed and I love it.

I have been pouring over the app store looking for cool stuff and have found sooooo much.

I am glad I switched from my Touch Pro 2.

I just really loved SPB mobile shell for WinMo, it was like the droid interface just with a launcher and contacts at the bottom of every screen, and no third party widgets.

SPB mobile shell rocks! I actually wish they would come out with a version for Android...I liked having more control over positioning, sizing, etc of stuff on my home screens.

That is what I loved about it so much.

You could overlap icons and widgets, could have a ton of different sizes to work with, basically you really could make it your own, you weren't just stuck with a 4x4 grid that everything had to fit on.

It SPB came out with a home screen alternative I would buy it without thinking.
