Miui XJ 1.4.1 (Gingerbread 2.3.3)
 
this is my screen, been jumping between roms and now on oxygen with adw ex

the joys of transparent folders and swipe gestures inspired me to make this set up

This wallpaper looks better on my phone. It comes out too grainy here.

I don't like the notification bar but otherwise I like the Urban theme so I have to live with it.

If its the theme chooser version, you can upload it to the online theme kitchen and modify it

I LOVE that wallpaper. And the whole look of your home screen. Very nice. I agree about the notification bar as well.
 
^^ Blackbird love, eh?

Cheers. That's given me options now.

Btw, I noticed that the UOT kitchen runs unbearably slow in Firefox but it's fine in Chrome.

I found it unbearably slow in Chrome as well.
But that could just be our crappy sky internet connection.
 
It's a mod of BobClockD3 that I got over at XDA, but can't find right now, I'm afraid. However, the unmodded clock still looks amazing. :)

Anyway, I made a few changes again:

Sorry for the dumb question but.... how do I make something like this? I've got as far as running LeeDroid 2.4, de-sensed it and installed ADW Launcher.

How do I change my lock screen & get text instead of icons? I really fancy going with the minimalist look for a while - this looks really smart! Are there themes that I can install/flash and then edit or do I have to build from scratch myself?

Thanks :)
 
and again I played around....I got into a kinda honeycomb 'blue' ish mood after playing with Go Launcher and its honeycomb theme...though I've now gone back to LP+ again and ditched all the 'Go' products..


My custom Widget Locker theme screen, a custom iphone slider with GTA text :D

All the icons are a mix of default LauncherPro icons or found on the Launcher Pro droid site....and pure calendar is on full transparency....and the wallpaper is.....well....buggered if I know really...it was off my old Nokia 5800 back when I was playing with SPB Shell last march...so be damned what it is..
 
and I've got my tasks and agenda in one now with Pure Calendar Widget :D it rocks! lol

How do you find that? I had it linked with Astrid, but after reboot, the tasks were not showing, i had to refresh. I ended up getting the astrid plug-in to show tasks on a seperate widget.

I'd originally taken astrid tasks off my phone to have to-do list widget....but ended up redownloading it when I found I could combine it with pure calendar agenda..

and I dunno...I just downloaded it, clicked it....worked straight off...and I've rebooted my phone twice since then and one dead battery and its still there, so dunno why it doesnt show for you...:( which is sad cos I think it working handing in hand in one widget is perfect :D
 
well changed my wallpaper again, and just added a few things to homescreen and also added pure grid calendar now :D

oh...and yes my dock makes no sense...only cos I forgot to swipe it back to the main "sms, gmail, app drawer, phone, browser" one lol

How come a lot of people have such large icons? Is there a way to make them bigger?

yea use Desktop Visualiser free from the market...that way you can skin any app on the homescreen you want with a new icon and it will be much larger than the default one :)
 
I knew there was something I was missing.

Iphone clone, here I come!

you cant yet change the dock icon sizes though...and unless you install MUIU ROM you cant have just 4 icons equally sized and spaced...unless you did some funky awesome photoshop splicing and having like half icons to occupy dead space to give the illusion of 4 icons there..

That's all right, I was kidding about the clone.

I'm not a minimalist but I don't want to plaster the home screen with icons either.
