About this app

This is a UCCW skins pack with which you can theme your device to look like Ubuntu phone OS. There are several hi-quality app cards with shadow effect and there's a beautiful clock. Plus header skins to categorize each homescreen.


== FEATURES ==
* This Ubu theme pack contains 3 sets of skins + a mind blowing clock. The sets are
** Favorite. Contains a header skin + 6 app skins - Game, Maps, News, Files and 2 more.
** Essentials. Contains a header skin + 7 app skins - Calls, Contacts, Text, Settings, Calendar, Weather and one more.
** Media. Contains a header skin + 6 app skins - Music, Gallery, Browser, Camera, Mails and one more.
* Plus a superbly beautiful clock.
* Assign the apps you want to each of the hotspots. Total of 21 hotspots.
* You can change color of the text and hour format of the clock too.
* There is an alternate version to this theme available. Check in "More from developer" below.


== INSTRUCTIONS ==
To use this skin, you have to install, apply and optionally edit/assign hotspots to the skin.

Install -
* After downloading the skin app from play store, launch it.
* Tap "Install Skin" button in the app.
* Tap "Ok" when it asks you whether you want to replace app. This step is replacing the skin installer with the actual skin. OR
* If you are using a KitKat device, it'll ask whether you want to update the existing app.
* Tap "Install". When that finishes, tap "Done". Skin is now installed.

Apply -
* You must have latest version of Ultimate custom widget (UCCW) installed. http://goo.gl/eDQjG
* Recommendation - Use Apex or Nova launcher. Grid size 8x6. Horizontal and Vertical margin = None. Dock as overlay and hidden.
* Place a UCCW widget of 2x2 size on the homescreen. You can do so by dragging the widget from app drawer or by long pressing homescreen to pull up widget menu.
* This will open the skins list. Skins installed from play store will show up ONLY HERE.
* Tap on the skin you want to apply and it'll be applied to the widget.
* Repeat the steps to place any number of widgets.
* Long press on the widgets and resize them. Header skins need to be resized to 6x1 and the app skins need to be resized to 2x3.


Edit -
* After applying the skin as mentioned above, launch UCCW app itself. Tap Menu, tap "hotspot mode" and tap 'OFF'. UCCW will exit.
* Now tap anywhere on the uccw widget. It'll open in uccw edit window.
* Scroll through the components in the bottom half of the screen. Assign apps to hotspots in this window. This IS a MUST.
* You can change color, format etc too (optional) in this window.
* When done, no need to save. That won't work. Simply tap Menu, tap "hotspot mode" and tap 'ON'. UCCW will exit. Your changes will now be applied to the widget.


== TIPS / TROUBLESHOOT ==
* If the "Install" step fails; go to Android settings > Security and make sure "Unknown sources" is enabled. Reason explained here - http://wizardworkapps.blogspot.com/2013/12/ultimate-custom-widgets-uccw-tutorial.html
* To change temperature unit between Celsius and Fahrenheit -> Launch UCCW app itself. Tap Menu, tap settings. Here, if "Celsius" is marked, temperature will display in Celsius. If unmarked, Fahrenheit.
* If weather info is not displayed/updated, Launch UCCW app itself. Tap Menu, tap settings, tap location. Make sure "Auto location" is checked and that the third row is correctly showing your location.
* You can also tap Menu, tap settings, tap 'weather provider' and change the selected provider.

* App doesn't need any permission now. Yayy.
