Home Screens

Over in the Dream section we have a section just for home screens i was wondering what the owners of actual Hero's are looking like if you've keep Rosie or not using here any more. Thanks!!!

Please help me make my phone look more like the Energy Rom :-)

Greetings!
I got my phone a few days ago to upgrade from my tilt 2 and it just feels like going from a Athlon 64 to a i7 LOL
A few things that are not quite there yet like the playstation emulation is no quite on par with what I have seen on Windows mobile..compatibility wise...I cannot get www.veoh.com to play even with Skyfiew and even southparkstudios is not quite as smooth (although much better looking) than on my tilt2 but I guess when Froyo is out the problems with Flash will be gone.
The main thing I want to work with now is making the home screen look more like my Tilt2 Energy ROM that I like so much.
I got the Launcher Pro + but I cannot even figure how to change clock and to show weather animation on the home page like the Energy Rom...or even if that is possible.
Any help is welcome.
PS Has anyone gotten the Amiga emulator to work yet?

The closest I can find to what you want is launcher pro and beautiful widgets (adds the home widget with the large clock + weather a la energy rom) hope that helps
Thanks.
I found fancy widgets which looks just like HTC.
Unfortunately the only live weather I have found takes a lot of resources unlike the one for our HTC phones so I guess I would have to wait a bit more on that one.

For appointments on your home page, try "agenda widget", It's great and very customizable. You can make it look just like sense, but even better in my opinion.
Thanks mate...is looking better already and this fun is just freaking awesome
I just need scummvm to be happier and a working amiga emulator as well.

4 Icons on the bottom?

Hi guys,
You know on the bottom of the Nexus One home screen you have three quick lauch buttons...?
[X][Menu][X]
I see in some screenshots in theme development where people have 5 icons on the bottom
[X][X][Menu][X][X]
How do you do that?
Thanks
download a different launcher... launchers are the general GUI for your phone....
Most people use either ADW Launcher or I prefer Launcher pro (i have the plus edition for the extra little widgets)
I would recommend you try Launcher pro first, its a little more polished in my opinion... ADW is an open source launcher and i think it has a lot of short comings and more bugs...
Yep. LP or ADW is what you need. You can theme both as well to change the dock graphics. I, too, prefer LP
LauncherPro is the best one.

Best home replacement

Hello to all my fellow xda-developers...
I was wondering what your personal favorite choice for homes are.
personally I use Zeam, its simple, straightforward, and has a dock! Unfortunately it is still missing some features that I absolutely desire (specifically an organizable app drawer).
Well anyway on to my question........​
What is your favorite home replacement?
We all have heard of those such as:
Launcher pro
Zeam
GDE
AHome
PandaHome
OpenHome
Others....
And then there are those that come default:
HTC sense
MotoBlur
TouchWiz
Xperia X10
(yes i know those are UI's but they have custom home's too)
So which style adorns your home screen?​
do we really need another one of these threads? anyway i say launcher pro, simply because it's awesome.
i prefer launcher pro plus

Agreed.
... but this does make this useless thread better
launcher pro plus gets my vote

LauncherPro.
i really liked SweeterHome. it;s really a fanastic launcher and it certainly has potential beyond all but LauncherPro. but it's a terrible ***** theming it. i walked away after a few days...
SweeterHome 2 is coming out, should be worth a look. anyway, LauncherPro is everyone's final answer but tell me this isn't beautiful: http://sweeterskins.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Borderline_promo.jpg
Launcher pro plus
I really liked Slidescreen, but it was a bit too heavy for my G1 - I imagine it would be superb on a bigger screened/more powerful phone. A major departure from every other home replacement, with a pretty steep learning-curve, but very pretty.

Launcher Pro Plus
Don't wanna be a pain, but what use of info do we get out of this ?
There are alot of people with different flavours, but don't we get to see this in the post your homescreen section ?
Sorry for this question
Greetz.
im using launcher pro plus and different themes from colormeandroid dot com

[Q] Searching for a new home screen replacment

Hello folks... I have been on the search for replacement home screen and maybe some of you have come across some new ones. I would love to find an alternative to SPB but all the ones I have found are not out yet. I have looked at all the regular ones like ADW, GO, LP and so on... I would love to do a review on the different types after I get a few more. I have about 10 so far. So lets start looking and list what you have found. Thanks!
QQ Launcher Pro, speed is good. Folder organization in the app drawer and comes with a lockscreen. Not much more to say about it other than I like it.

LauncherPRO is very fast, and looks very nice IMO.
There's a windows phone 7 launcher i was using for a while that i liked. Nice to change it up a bit.
If you haven't, I would try ADW EX. Its the paid version but is much smoother than the free ADW launcher. Use it on my XT860 and love it.
Espier launcher replicates iOS and is very smooth and supports lwp

If you don't mind, after you have concluded your search and have come to your decision, please post the launcher you went with and WHY. I am mostly just curious and don't have enough time to research all the available launchers myself.
