Does anyone know of an app or a theme that can make messaging on android look like the windows phone 7 messaging? i just love that minimalistic theme.
Me too :')
Go Sms and Handcent have a bad design :'(
Check out wp7android.com, they have gosms themes.

Youlu Adress Book have a very nice design for SMS, maybe someone can write a standalone SMS application like that.
Are there any addons/apps similar to Go Launcher EX Notifications? You know, those tiny number things that pop up next to icons that tells you that you have missed calls, messages, email, etc.
I need Go Launcher to run Go Launcher EX Notification but my launcher of choice is Apex, is there an alternative (preferably free)? UCCW?
I love this phone, but I am not that crazy about the icons on TouchWiz. Is there anyway to change icons without being on a ROM that has the theme chooser?

you cuold always try apex launcher or another launcher also!
APK Edit will allow you to change the icon and/or application name for any program... very easy to use.
see this:

OK, a lot easier way to do this is to download "Apex Launcher" or "Nova Launcher" from the play store. They both support icon packs. There are many free ones out on the play store (stock jellybean, motorola icons, lg icons, google icons, touchwiz icons...etc)
Launcher:

Icons (a bunch):

Sweet, thanks for the response guys that helps a lot.

Icon changer works for me:good:
I've been using Apex launcher for a while now an I really like it. The best feature is letting me change the home page grid size. I really prefer to have 5 x 4 instead of the default 4x4.
I find GO Launcher EX to be an excellent launcher as it has some many plugins available so you can customize every aspect of the O/S to make it look exactly like you want. It also has a complete widget series for further customization. I like the custom calendar, weather, and notifications it provides. Also there is a really cool SMS text message app that add many custom icons to your text messages.

Make it to Gingerbread 2.3.x please
The Play store is reporting that Solo Launcher is incompatible with my Archos 80 G9 running Android 4.0.4. I'm using Nova on it now with no issues, but given this tablet's limited resources (only 512MB of RAM) I'd love to give Solo a try on it!
Always some troubles with folder in app drawer ... the creator has changed the display its OK now but till last version no way to create or modify folder in app drawer...
Otherwise its a good launcher

I have set the unread count on go sms instead of my normal messaging app but it does not show anything. Is there a way that this can be added? Or am I doing something wrong.
EDIT: Works fine now, not sure why it didn't activate immediately

It's come a long way since I first tried it put. I would consider this a true contender towards Nova and Apex, but I will prefer Action Pro.

I don't know why your launcher need so many permission. Much Much more than the other launcher.
It seem you have not answer this question even many XDA member asked about this.
This launcher again? This is the third thread (that I know of) about this launcher and it gets taken down each time.
Dev also doesn't explain the need for so many permissions for the launcher.

The Dev of this app seem also try to make use of XDA's name in their (Chinese) app description to make people trust their app. I copy part of this below;
說明

hey I am using google phone as my default dialler app on my moto g3(2015)
recently google updated the favourites style to bubble type. But I don't like it and I want to go back to grid style in the previous versions.
I don't want to install old apk because it does not have dark theme.
Please help me
