And now I'm working a porting a popular theme (i can't tell you which theme it is yet) to cm6 and cm7, also making my espresso rom sense, and releasing v1.2 of my tweak/mod for bl & mp versions and releasing v1.0 of the mp & bl versions for the entire androids community (those will be non specific to android phones), and I'm working on my gingersense rom and making the setup less time consuming (basically making the theme setup by default flash of the rom), also I'm porting a rom to our heroes (can't tell you yet), also I'm compiling my own rom and making a custom kernel, not to forget helping/finishing PMGrands rom
.....so I guess you can call me the multi tasking master

That's what I'm up to

Is this really kifno's theme? Or is this the android 7 port that andyriot posted?
It sure looks like the same as the android 7 themes... what makes this different enough to get its own thread?
Seriously, did you just start a new thread to make it look like this is YOUR work?
How many times do you have to apologize before you start thinking before you act?

There are many other threads that contain the icon pack for the android 7 theme. All this is my custom icons for mdpi devices with my own custom dimensions for the android 7 theme. So this is my work just the method of applying it isn't. I did nothing wrong bro, I learned my lesson already.

not tryna be rude or anything.. but this isn't your theme.. its just an ICON PACK u made..
this was done back in sept 2010 found here
and i even created an "ICON" pack found here back in sept..
its been done many times over and probably doesn't hold much interest anymore.. but to start your OP off with "Kifno's LauncherPro Theme" isn't the right way to go about it..
also.. you could use some pointers in creating your icons, cause most of them either look stretched or squeezed..

The thread I mention has many people posting their icons. Currently yours is the last post on that thread. It says you are almost done with your icons.
Now... you made a new thread to show off your work and separate it from the 30 page thread full of other peoples contributions.
I think you need to ease back on how proud of yourself you are. This seems to be kifnos icon set for a theme, more than kifnos theme. Just like your roms... they aren't your roms, they are your mods to existing roms.
So far you aren't a themer or a dev, yer just a modder. A modder who seems really full of himself, who makes long posts telegraphing his long term plans to anyone who will read it.
Your skills are being overshadowed by your boastful self-importance.

I'm not trying to be full of myself I'm really not, sorry if I come off that way at times. I'll just ask a mod to delete this thread and take down my icon pack I don't want any problems

Mondays are good too. Still fresh.
Kifno, I think you should try not to spread yourself too thin. This forum needs thinking and enthusiasm and will reward creativity - but there are too many informed people to try and embellish ones creations.
It's quality not quantity that counts most. Focus and let your work be your voice and not your voice.
People here are actually trying to help you with developing and with life in general. You don't have to be "the best", be your best and just relax and focus.
Don't take your ball home- just play smart. And whatever you do, don't try and sell your story on these threads and don't come off as a victim- you will lose respect, not gain it. You're young and have a lot of time.
Also, don't break your neck doing head spins.
Good luck.

WP7 For HTC EVO... Well kind of: Launcher 7

Hello all,
I have searched the forums for the EVO 4G and found nothing on this so I thought I'd share.
I recently came across a wonderful home screen replacement in the android market. I was looking for a way to get a simple UI for my phone that didn't use many resources. I began on XDA and then branched out from here. A couple Google searches later, I found an app in the Android Market that replaces your home screen with Windows Phone 7's Metro UI. This UI is simple, easy to use, fast, and above all it works 100% of the time for me. I wanted to share it with you guys because I know there are quite a few people interested in a WP7 port to the EVO. This application is probably as close as we will get for a while and it comes really close to mimicking the UI of WP7 perfectly. You can set custom backgrounds, add any application or non-HTC widget as a tile on the Home Screen, adjust the animations for more eye candy or more performance (although full eye candy works just as fast for me), and many more.
I am going to try and build a ROM with this Homescreen replacing HTC sense to free up both internal and RAM memory. If I can accomplish this using the basic ROM kitchen, I will post another thread about this in the development thread and provide a download.
I have the link to the Android Market page below but if you want to install it straight from your phone, just search for Launcher 7 in the android market. There is a free and a paid version. I have the free, but I am going to buy the paid version very soon. If I make a ROM, it will include the free version for obvious reasons.
Links To Android Market pages:
Free version: https://market.android.com/details?id=info.tikuwarez.launcher3&hl=en
Paid Version: https://market.android.com/details?id=info.tikusoft.launcher7&hl=en
Disclaimer: I did not make this application, nor do I claim any rights to it. All credit goes to the developer,Timo Kujala, for their awesome work on this application. I am not responsible if this messes up your phone (it most likely will not) in any way. I am also not responsible if you get hit by a bus while playing with your new layout lol.
I hope you guys enjoy this awesome little app as much as me and give feedback on whether or not you would like to see a ROM with this as the main launcher.

Nice find!

Reply to rbrainard
Thanks for the post but that's a different app... It looks cool too but I'm working with Launcher 7 specifically as far as asking permission from the developer. I am not claiming to be on the cutting edge with this. Launcher 7 itself has been around quite a while. I like the idea of posting other WP7 launchers though so if you have them go on and post them.
Sent from my Kinged & WP7ified EVO

Anyone that would be willing to try the ROM if I built it? I don't want to spend the time if no one wants it.

I'm actually very surprised that there isn't a WP7 Clone ROM out already. I would have thought that if this developer was spending so much time on these various apps... that they would naturally compile them into a ROM.
I would say that OMGB or Salvagemod would be an excellent base for AOSP... or a deodexed stock ROM with minimal bloat or SalvageSense for Sense.
You would simply replace these WP7 apps with those that already reside in the base image and theme to match.
I'm sure I'd play around with it, but could never use it for a daily.
All in all... If I wanted a WP7 look; I'd sell my Evo & buy a WP7 phone.

Hell yeah, I'd try it. I'm playing with WP7Lock and Launcher7 right now.
To other poster, the devs haven't created a rom, because they wanna create something that'll work on all devices, is my understanding.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

Alright cool. I'm starting work on it now. It should be finished by Sunday I would say going by how much free time I will have. I have Ubuntu now and I am figuring out how to work the kitchen. The ROM will originally be just stock rooted Sense (I have yet to determine which dev team's ROM to go with) with the launcher baked in, then the second release, if I have enough interest, will be an AOSP ROM with everything stripped except apps people request and will have Launcher7 as the home screen and the WP7 lock screen. Keep up the good feedback guys.

So, you're thinking first release would be stock sense with launcher7 baked in as the default/only launcher?
I gotta say, I don't quite see the point. I mean, how is that different than than simply setting launcher7 as default launcher? Not trying to come across rude, or anything. Just saying I don't quite see the point, or maybe I misunderstood your intention.?
Very interested in seeing this, though. And yeah, using aosp for this project is a great idea IMHO

miui-development-wip-port

Just so the people that actually wanna know whats going on yes we are rebuilding miui not because the other port was a bad port there was just to many issues with thee rom (eg fix one thing break 40 more things...) SO the decision was made to just start from scrach porting it from the vibrant using the latest gb leak and rebuild everything back up for the sgs4g. Yes this is still a port but just at its base. Everything will be edited and working for the sgs4g. It wont be released tell its stable enough and all the features people need are 100 percent solid. (visual errors excluded that can be quickly fixed har )
Anyways Me A few members from rootz and eventually desexton for the speedtweaks are working on the rom we will use this thread to communicate updates to you all as we see fit and when we have stuff for you to read thats worthwhile...
Thanks for your understanding.
Please note if you plan to toll this thread be warned it will not be tolerated and posts will be reported promtly to the mods stay on topic enjoy...

Great that you decided to go ground up. Sound be another great ROM when it's done. Thanks and keep us posted.

I'm willing to help. I'm not as good as you guys, but let me know

Is this just a theme on 2.3.4 gingerbread?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

OK, gingerbread for this phone, is now 2.3.5 not 2.3.4, and on that note, MIUI is a rom, not based on samsungs 2.3.5 at all. So, do some research before you ask questions like that.
This is not trying to be mean, just a heads up.

I am happy there is still work going on ...but although u said u will not release until stable ...but I love this rom soo much ...not problems but ring...if u did fixed it already just post it ...

A stable release is well worth the wait. We got a taste and this news is awesome. Thank you guys!
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

I think waiting for a stable rom, hopefully an almost final, release would be better than releasing a stable rom with lots of issues... for example a beta. I mean, Raver does have the phone and he knows most of the issues. Sooo for me it keeps the thread clean and he doesn't waste time helping people solve miscellaneous problems. Bottom line: there's no point in beta testing when dev has the phone. Just sayin'.

when its done not before then
