Is that defrost you are using there?

Stench Blossoms · 10-08-2010 11:20pm

No just 2.2

Are you rooted? Is that a custom Rom. Been looking for a good stock froyo Rom. Tried defrost but the display was hogging the battery. Using neophyte now which is a compromise between sense and stock froyo, but would rather just have the stock froyo, much better.

I'm rooted. That's the standard Froyo rom i've just just customized it with icons etc.

Do you need to be rooted to get the custom icons? Either way, where are they from... also, the boards.ie one is a nice touch

I was all set to root so I could get 2.2, but then the OTA update hit, so I put it off again, but seeing these screens makes me want to root again!

Stench Blossoms · 11-08-2010 9:32am

I used BetterCut to change the icons. That's a paid app so you need to be rooted to get it from the market but I just found the apk online.

The icons are Buuf icons. I got them here.

I'm using LancherPro with a custom dock background. If you want that let me know.

Mr E · 11-08-2010 10:53am

Stench Blossoms · 11-08-2010 11:19am

What's the weather widget your using Mr.E? On the third screen?

Burning Eclipse · 11-08-2010 11:22am

What are those news widgets on the second screen? As always, do I need to be rooted?

Also Mr E... did you open the ill-fated "Mr. E" store in Arthur's Quay?

Mr E · 11-08-2010 11:36am

The News Widgets are separate apps in the market (one for games, one for tech news, one for mobile news and one for Film/TV news). Search for "mippin" in the market to see them all in one place. They have the word "Buzz" in their names.

The Weather widget (both the satellite map and summary above it) are from Weather Bug Elite (paid app in market)

If you're looking for a nice background, grab Mabilo Wallpapers. Download some wallpapers to give you a selection (thousands to choose from). The ones you like will be saved on your SD card. Uninstall it again when you're finished.

And no, I'm not that Mr. E.

M450 · 11-08-2010 12:18pm

Where do you guys get the 7 settings widget. I'm using the standard 5 settings one and a separate 1x1 widget for mobile internet so would be nice to combine them

tooth*grinder · 11-08-2010 12:38pm

Sorry for the semi derail - but for those of us who are little slow on the uptake, does anyone have any links to some decent skinning guides?

Do you mean changing the icons and wallpaper etc?

Mr E · 11-08-2010 1:01pm

You need a deodexed ROM to be able to skin your phone properly (i.e. change all assets). With a stock ROM, you can only change the basics (wallpaper, icons with a 3rd party app etc.)

Here is a topic about what to do to skin your phone:

Nice find, I quite like the Buuf icons and there's an absolute ton of them too!:D

Keano · 11-08-2010 1:55pm

What are you using on the first screen for the clock?

Mr E · 11-08-2010 2:17pm

Beautiful Widgets (a paid app in the market)

The skin for the clock and the weather is called DirtyPaper (both downloaded separately from the BW config screen). Widget transparency is switched on, so the background shows through.

Vokes · 02-09-2010 2:54pm

Lots of great looking screens above there

Mine is still a work in progress. Prefer the minimalist look with the background.

How do the counters for data, minutes and SMS work, Vokes?

osnola ibax · 02-09-2010 4:56pm

Lawstud · 02-09-2010 5:01pm

What's the widget with the football fixtures?

osnola ibax · 02-09-2010 5:15pm

apologies, should have explained:

The footy fixtures is just a calendar widget thats free from the market called calwidget. It allows fully customizable colors. I just synced the footy fixtures with my google calendar.

The power control widget comes with OpenDesire, its very customizable.

The battery widget is battstat (people should be familiar with that)

The icons come from Tron theme (paid theme €1) for ADW Launcher, thus the launcher is ADW.

The clock comes from Beautiful Widgets (paid app)

It's a DroidStats widget.

You set your contract's monthly minutes, sms' and data quotas, and those widgets will decrement accordingly (there is a configurable refresh interval). The App allows you setup patterns for the sort of phone numbers that qualify for your free quotas - so when DroidStats is first configured it will analyze your call log and sms log to see how much has already been used.

I haven't setup the pattern matching for the phone numbers correctly yet, so the widgets for mins / sms still show my full quota. The Data one is working fine though.

Ample Free ...? · 19-09-2010 4:10pm

Found this style of homescreen on XDA the other day. There's a huge amount of customization that you can do and I think it looks pretty cool!:o

Any way here's my attempt, it's still a work in progress but I'm pretty pleased so far. The background is just temporary. Although it looks darker and overall better on the phone. Same thing could be said for the dock.

There's also a few other designs and concepts by the same guy on his DeviantArt page.

oh and sorry did you not know most windows phones can dual boot? i got froyo ubuntu and windows under a 4.3" screen ... eat my dust fan boy

Dave147 · 20-09-2010 1:48am

Yes I'm aware they can dual boot, but if you want an Android phone so bad just buy an Android phone.

Blah blah, I'm a tolerant person but all your posts are so bloody annoying..

evolutionqy7 · 20-09-2010 2:57am

ha give an Android phone that can do as much as mine.

you make that montage yourself or is there an app for that? I love your button layout- it's a good idea.

I did the montage in photoshop. It's just a matter of getting a decent picture of your phone, inserting the screen shots and then manipulating the different phone images in whatever way you want.
That said though I can't take any credit for the layout or montage idea. I've taken a few different ideas from other people on XDA and just custimized it to how I liked it. There's a "Post your Home Screen" thread on XDA which you can get a lot of ideas from. The original layout concept came from newone757 and the Windows Phone 7 icons idea came from ahwang87.

Looks nice. How do you remove the phone/apps bar at the bottom and replace it with a phone icon like you have done. Does the phone need to rooted?

The ones I have are the samsung defaults. You just touch and hold the icon you need replaced and there'll be a popup asking you to choose one of default application icons, the launcherpro equivalents or the gallery.

Mine is rooted, but it should work for unrooted phones as well.. Its just an application setting

S.M.B. · 07-10-2010 2:28pm

So many people seem to be using the same dark wooden background, mine's the same.
