Hey, i just wanted to start a thread about LauncherPro themes. i change my phone's appearance alot so i wanted to see other people's ideas. please post ur dock backgrounds and app icons! here are screenshots of my phone
btw, im using lockbot pro for the lockscreen
Here's mine.
Only the main screen here -- found some nice, minimalist icons. Not using an icon background atm.
Anyone have good sources for high quality icons?
Hey - any reason you're using LockBot for that lock screen? You could get the exact same lock screen without needing the extra app by simply removing the "HtcLockscreen.apk" (if you're rooted, of course). Check around the Themes area for more info about the vanilla lockscreen.
I know this isn't really launcher pro, but I ripped the launcher icons out of here to use with LP.

I recommend you don't remove the HTC lock screen. From what I understand it will screw up the alarm clock.
No Lock is an app that does a great job of disabling the HTC lock.
Here's a few I've put together. Red dock by prodigy2007.
Here's what mine looked like.

Meh.
App Drawer is so laggy(cool transition effects though,love the sphere)
Cannot remove icon label backgrounds
Icons are small(well compared to iOS)
Set the wallpaper as a solid black color, lower the crap out of your dpi and delete all your widgets?
Or is that not what you meant?
There is a QQLauncher in the General Android Development Forum that's trying to imitate MIUI's Launchers behavior.
MIUI is as Close as you can get to iPhone (imo).
Then there's a 'few' icon packs that try imitating iPhone's ICONs aswell.

QQlauncher has an app drawer though.
There is a ported MIUI launcher but it's pretty laggy.

I use it as my standard screen now, its awesome

badtip.I bought the ADW launcher and it makes it look like an iphone.I also found an IPhone launcher port to Android...yeah it sucks..i wanted a modified one with widgets and drawers,but i found my answer in ADW.
Also,why dig this thread out of its grave ? @[email protected]
Espier Launcher will give you an iphone feel. Grab it before they get sued off the planet.
wow, that launcher is a pretty damn good attempt. Needs a little bit of work but would work well for someone looking for a springboard launcher
Q: I love the customization available with the various ASOP roms, however really like the look and feel of the various sense roms too. I'm running Virtous Unity 2.37 and its great.
Without using an application such as ADW products, can I tweek the look to remove the app name from the display? I know what's what and just want to make it cleaner.
I'm not very technical and have searched but nothing seems to apply.

Use Any Cut (free in Market). Create shortcut to App from within Any Cut...although it won't let you leave the name blank, it will allow you to just input a space so it appears blank. See camera in top row of screenshot

desktop visualizer will do the same thing, but i think it will let you leave it completely empty
I use Desktop Visualizer. Notice the NFL icon. It is a custom icon that actually launches the NFL '11 app that I use. Also notice how I shortened the name of the stock messaging app.

Thanks for the input. I went with Desktop Visualizer. It was free and extremely simple to use. I've already cleaned up the desktop and it looks clutter free. Thanks!

It's a work in progress. I'm stock rooted with the Ginerbread/Sense 2.1 rom.
The wallpaper I found on Zedge. The skin is sopL87's 2.1 work over in the DHD threads. It is the Glass Sense skin. I am planning on changing the battery icon blue. I got some nice things going on in the other screens too. All a work in progress.

I had to hop on PC to reply to this post and am noticing that my pics posted huge, instead of a thumbnail with a smaller pic. I have no idea why. Must be the Tapatalk app.
Just interested in your wallpaper. I have my very own custom blue carbon fiber skin.

I'm new here but I've been learning about custom roms and flashing them to my HTC One X from the amazing ViperXL Rom to CM10 and I was just wondering if anyone knows if its possible to flash Windows Phone 8 on an HTC One X...Maybe its not possible yet but i think the idea would be pretty neat to have it running or emulating on the device right? So anyone has any ideas or know about a developer who may have it on the works?

As far as I am aware, the answer is no. The reason is due to the different hardware(no driver support) and the closed nature of Windows 7/8 it isn't possible to make the rom.

Hmmm i'll take a look at it maybe over time the update fixes the slow feel...but i didn't know there were XDA Rules on that...
Everyone is always talking about launcher 8, but launcher 7 is a highly polished windows phone launcher that's been around for a long time and has flawless performance. Also if you really like the look there are great lockscreen, keyboard, status bar, calculator, SMS, and dialer apps. I tried it for awhile and it was kind of cool. I can dig up the names of them if you want

...or you can just buy a different phone every time you want to try something new instead of coming on XDA, rooting your phone to install custom ROMs and wasting poor cheesy's precious time, lol.
As others have said I don't think it's possible but I also think that it would be cool to try. Can I just say that the first time I ever used Android it was on an old Windows Mobile 6.1 device, it ran like **** but at least it was an effort and it was a lot more fun than just buying a new phone.

Well I was just about to suggest you try Easy Mode, there isn't anything easier/bigger then that.
Now I don't usually say things like these, but you bought your grandma the wrong phone. A flagship phablet is not for someone who finds Easy Mode confusing. Consumerism must die.
Windows 7 / 8 Launcher. Very simple.
Easier mode is the best. You need to guide her with heart. If easier mode she also can't accept. Then you need to make everything she need to use in one page.

You might root the phone and then in build.prop change screen dpi. Use nova launcher and place everything in one or two pages. Hide dock and status bar(so that she doesn't gets lost) and for battery info use battery widget reborn.
As simple :thumbup:
