I'm kind of sick of using HTCH w/Customizer. Anyone have any better options? I've got about 93 different cabs sitting in a folder on my desktop and I am unsure which route to go. Which programs do you feel are essential for customization? I do require a nice looking digital clock but haven't found a great one other than HTCHOME
Here is what I have for customization other than HTCHOME:
SPB
Phonesuite
PocketPlus
Time
MobileShell
Full Screen Keyboard
S2U2 (which I like a lot cause it gives me the option to display a nice looking clock and .gif images while the phone is locked)
rL: Not to familiar with getting a great lookin, while user friendly interface, theme onto my phone.
Any suggestions or screenshots would be great. I viewed the show your today thread, which I got most of these programs from. However, I think many of them looked better with HTCHOME.
Maybe my question should be, is there a way to get rid of the 5 launch tools (today, favorite contacts, weather, launcher, sounds, and music player) and cut it down to three?
This should be the idiot of the week thread considering i never bothered to hit the download button on the customizer menu durr
It sounds like you need HTC Home Customizer. You can find it here .
lol gee thanks but i think i established that in the first sentence of the posts. Thank you for your assistance though.

Don't forget PointUI, Throttle Launcher, the LG Prada Interface and SPB MobileShell as your today screen.
You should check out the development and hacking forum more often

Let's keep this thread going!
I'm curious to see what everyone's home screen looks like. How do you manage your Home Screen(s)? I'm curious as where people place things, what themes they use, what wallpapers, etc.
Anyways, here are mine:
Left screen: for folders, media, and market app
Center: For most common apps, and a quick toggle app.
Right: Unused. Leaving open for when (more like if...) widgets are available.
Here are a few of mine.
..
this thread should be stickied. I'll post mines later today
Here is mine.
Should sticky this and put up the app and/or directions to capture screen.
get root, download Screenshot from the market and you're away!!!
you set how long it takes and then it saves to the root of your sdcard.
What theme are you using, dom2684 ?
What do you use to make the icons pics?
Thanks.

I don't recommend the Beautful widgets because they hog up more system resources. But that's based on my experience with it. The Flip Clock for the Weather Widget requires a lot less and can be themed.

That's productive. Why does this forum have a such a musky scent of asshole to it?
The majority of screencaps showing off cyanogen's mod typically show the Weather Widget Donate on it's first page, as if to say that it's part of the mod package itself. But, yes of course, why wouldn't everyone just assume that they'd go to the market and download something called "weather widget" when they're looking for a clock. Golly, lusers sure are silly! Thank god you guys are here to keep that pedantic nerd stereotype alive and well.

hey do you even know how to read??? i was the first person to tell him what to search for in the market, his question was answered. i posted a joke but apparently you lacked the comprehension skills to realize it was a joke and not a flame. if i was flaming the OP i would have never gave him/her an answer to begin with. I told the OP both of the widgets, did you just click the second page and not even realize there was one in front of it

Theme Gallery Up And Running HERE!!
Ok I got the swine flu so I decided to do something productive. I have seen many posts on here talking about a theme page and no one made one that is gallery stile. Every one I found is like Themedroid (not functional yet) and others that are forum stile. So I sat down and made a gallery for them. I updated this with all the themes posted here on xda. Yes I sat down and added every theme I could find on xda to punk-in. If you would like your theme removed please email me the name of it and I will gladly remove it for you.
I do not take any credit for the themes I just wanted a better way to view what each looks like. Now make sure you view what is required to run the theme. I am not responsible for bricked phones. Also I had to break them down into old themes, cupcake themes and hero themes. Now If I get good feedback I will organize it much better but for now This is how it has to be.

wow dude! What an implementation of a great idea! I like it! Good way to just scan through themes and see what they look like before even going to the threads! Congrats, dude!
PS: Sorry about the swine flu.
Not to shabby. Would be good for new people looking to check out themes. One thing I would change is you have 3 sections: Hero, Cupcake, and old. I would change Cupcake to just Android or something more general since cupcake is kind of old news now. Might confuse people running Donut.
how about section for themes for donut?
Could you organize them by build?
Saw a few that I liked but none that would work for CM 4.1.999

I think you should do that. Searching by build would be the easiest way for me to find a theme I like.

This is a really well put together site, thank you for taking the time to compile a list of themes out there.
PS: Sorry u got the swin flu
Wow!
Thanks for taking the time to do this. It's great.
You might want to go through alldroid.org as most of the new major themers have moved there
Wow! This is a great help is quickly checking out how the themes look like
Everyone is right the site looks great thanks for all the hard work. I do agree that a little more detail about what ROMs these Themes work for would be nice. Maybe the ROM specific Dev name like Cyan, JAC, Haykuro, etc would be nice but anyone could download a theme and make it work for that rom just by moving the files around. With 7 Zip and the Auto Sign tool it a peice of cake.
Get Well Soon but Enjoy the Time Off
nice work! you should put a search option
thanks for putting my theme
sorry you got that swine flu hope youre better soon!
Thanks so far for the feedback.
Thanks for the input. I feel ok to sit up and check up on some of my projects. I looked at alldroid.org and allot of the themes are there also. I will make a post there and see if they like the idea. I do not want to step on anyone's toes. I am just trying to get away from viewing all the themes via forum. I like to see all of them together and pick the one I like.
I also keep hearing people want it to have a Donut section. I will draw up an android maby eating a donut or something. LOL.
If everyone wants it more organized please give an example. Like All Cyanagin put together? Or all builds separate or how to do it? I would like to get it all set up now so in the future people can just add a pic an a link to there theme and people could look at them and do what they have to do.
Thanks for the feed back and support.

What do you mean? Is there another site that is better. I am just doing this to help but if there is another site that is better I would love to NOT have to maintain this. Please let me know.
Please note: I am trying to get away from the whole forum thing. I really like this site here http://g1wallz.com/ but they only have wallpapers.
So some of you may or may not remember a little old blog called Color Me Android from back in the day that was a screenshot based site. Well, it went down some months ago, and that was that. However. I tried to put a theme on my phone the other day (It's supposed to be so simple with the theme chooser, yeah?). Unfortunately, because it's so easy with CM7 and MIUI theme engines, that themes are EVERYWHERE. It takes you about a bloody hour just to find one.
So, I brought CMA back.
As a theme site.
It's a visual directory of all CM7/MIUI/ADW - type themes. It's in Open Alpha, and I'm inviting people to come, register, sign in, submit screenshots (Yes, I kept the orignal screenshot part of the site there) and help me find bugs while I finish adding themes. I've got 45 on the site so far. And I'm working my way down that ginormous list of themes that stickied in this forum.
So yeah.
Thoughts/comments/bugs?
or themes you want to see on the site? Tell me below.
http://colormeandroid.com
Sweet man thanks for bringing this back. Its great to have a easier way of finding themes and such.
sick idea. i'll deff be there alot as long as all the themes from miui get added there and lockscreens. =]

Once you register and log in there's a submit screenshot link that pops up so you can submit and view screenshots (a glorified 'post your homescreen' thread - but it's just like old school cma [hopefully])

Sorry, to prevent spam screenshots are sent in as a draft, and have to published by an editor (me). Otherwise people would just fill the form with crap. And it hasn't been notifying me, so I apologize for that. Also - the syntax for posting an image is the image tag in html not bbcode
so

Indeed you did. I can always go in and edit it, but it's nice for the people to know what they're doing. Especially since I'm the only admin/editor for the alpha. That way if I change something, I don't have to worry about telling other people about it

Glad to see you're back! I actually found you guys through custom android, or AE, any idea what happened to those guys?
Thanks for all your hard work.
AH. I got my new phone and then went to your site to find some nice styles but noticed its changed a bit.
Am right in thinking the old site was more customised home screens than themes?.......If so is there anyway to see them again because thats what I really liked. People saying what widgets they used and custom graphics to make cool buttons etc.
But still the site is good! Maybe have an option to go back to the old version aswell?

Yes, it used to be a screenshot based site. I am going to be bringing that functionality back in the near future. However, I am still working on finding decent hosting. I can't afford anything so I'm looking for a sponsor. Until I find one, production is at a standstill. But yes, the screenshot portion of the site is going to be at screens.colormeandroid.com when I get everything set up eventually.
u had some epic **** back in those nexusOne days!
Hey, I truly truly truly miss Color Me Android. I saw the new site up a little bit ago. Is it back down again? Also, will there be a way of getting the old themes/screen shots back? Like archived? Anyways, Hope to see this again soon, I need inspiration for my Droid!
Take care
