Not gonna lie, that lockscreen is pretty slick. What would we have to do to bring that look to Android?

Yea search for ownskin on the market. Then using that app, search "metro ui". Theres 3 words at the bottom of the wallpaper, but you can easily remove it by editing it
Tried that, in ownskin there's nothing to be found when searching for "metro ui" even just "metro" gets no result

guys, ownskin will only list the wallpaper that suit your phone screen size. so the wallpaper created by sofox must be same as your phone screen size then you can find it.....
anyway the easiest is to try make it yourself one, it is rather easy. try it at http://www.ownskin.com/livewallpaper

Is it possible to change icons? If so, how?

If you use launcher pro from the market as your launcher you can change the icons and the name too...
Long press on a blank space and add the app you want...tap on its picture to load your gallery and choose whatever icon you would like...there are plenty to download...

Download Desktop Visualizer from the Market. Allows you to put custom icon shortcuts anywhere on your desktop for just about anything. You can't change any of the taskbar or menu icons, but it does allow you to change/customize any icons you put on your desktop home screens.

Haha, thanks for the compliment! It really wasn't that hard to be honest. Just resize the png, rename it, and find where to put it. Once you figure out that you can open .apk files with 7zip, the rest is a cake walk!
The problem with most n00bs is that they don't want to get their hands dirty... and the laziness! Haha.
Me having way too much time on my hands. Fully working and fully customizable widgets. Widgets layed out to mimic WP7. This is Running Launcher Pro Plus. NOT A ROM. Stock 2.1 w/update fascy Bloatware removed.

Very nice.
I was thinking about creating one for myself.
Would you mind telling me how to create these custom widget for Launcher Pro Plus?
I think I saw it somewhere else in xda but couldn't find it.
a sort of step-by-step instruction would be nice
Thanks in advance.
There is a very detailed post in the general android forums. Its called android phone 7.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Here's what I did, I didn't read any other forum on how to do this. I just wanted it so I just basically did it how I would do it.
First, get launcher pro plus. You need LPplus so you can resize widgets. Hide your notification tray, empty out the bottom dock.
I'm using "Desktop Visualizer" on my Android phone. Check it out here: http://whatsonyourandroid.appspot.com/details?p=jp.co.bii.android.app.dskvzr
Download desktop visualizer from market. Then download icons from google images. Then just add the DV widget like normal. It will instruct you which app to use, super easy. Then just resize everything like you want it. Then repeat.
Did you not have any problems with Desktop Vis slowing down your phone? On my Droid OC'd to 1,000 it made my screens super laggy having around 16 widgets total.

Maybe slightly work on the wording fitting into the icons instead of floating. I have the original set on mine for the past week and love it. Was working on new icons myself haha.

Can get a screen shot of yours. It was very difficult to even come close with the wording. Resizing the widget also resizes the position of the words. Couldn't figure out the right rhythm.

Yea I saw your theme and that inspired me to do mine. I sent you a private message a week ago, about how you did yours, no response. So I had to do it a way I only knew how to. Using the desktop visualizer, a very rough way making custom icons.

Yep. Launcher Pro + DV + GIMP + Sick Day. lol.
I like the concept, but not the Win7 icons that are out there. I will probably take the time to fit everything better size wise later, but this was fun.
How did you get more control of the title icons. Using DV I didn't have much options with the resizing of the title.

put the title in the image you create.
The image and the title move dependent with each other using DV. I'm sorry im not understanding. Its very tricky cause the title and image are preset its just manipulating the size.

And now I'm wondering if there is possible to make my android phone (CM7) to look just like an iPhone?
Can you guys help me to collect all apps (SMS, Caller, lockscreen, bootscreen and so on) and maybe some cm7 themes that looks like iOS/iPhone so that I (and you guys) can make our android phones to look like an iPhone!
Thanks in advance!
Widget locker for the lock screen. Minimalistic Text for the lock screen clock. And finally using Launcher pro with custom dock and iPhone icons off the web.

I just saw this newly developed app, Themer: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mycolorscreen.themer&hl=en
Is anyone using it? How does it work? I guess the easiest solution is just to install it. But the waiting list is so long. I want to know if this app can install a homescreen theme without purchasing the apps that the original designers used. Thanks.
Looks like you can do the same stuff with exposed framework
Sent on my Moto X
yeah. I am using it. waiting for more themes. I check it every couple of days to see if I like any of them.
I'm not 100% sure what will happen if you get a theme that used widgets you don't have. The themes that come preinstalled use Themer widgets that come with the launcher so they work out of the box on any phone. One of the widgets is very powerful like uccw.
Sent from my Moto X.
Well, the waiting period was shortened. With this code "MSTRCD" I was able to use Themer...after five minutes, I decided to uninstall it for such reasons as: 1, not really customizable after I applied a theme. For instance, I cannot resize a widget. 2, There is no simple way to switch a default app if I change my mind later.
Themer indeed can do multiple homescreens. But again, it is hard to Create anything new.
So far, the major downside of Buzz is it consumes more rams than Themer.
If you are interested in using it now, I got the code from here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/10/10/grab-this-themer-beta-invite-code-good-for-40000-uses-and-help-mycolorscreen-test-its-beefed-up-servers/
freeintruth said:
I guess I am just trying to see the main difference between Themer and Buzz launcher. With Buzz, for the widgets to work, which I do not already have, I need to download them. Some recent screens on mycolorscreen require Zooper Widget that costs $2...and Buzz cannot yet do the overlapping widgets. I wonder Themer can actually solve all of them together and remain to be free.
Oh, forgot to ask one more question: the biggest thing with Buzz, for me at least, is to be able to have multiple wallpapers. Can Themer do various homescreens in case I like three or four screens?
Thanks guys for the input.

I bet most people that build themes will use the included widgets and other built-in features. You can have as many pages you want and can have different wallpapers for each of them. Have a look at this video about how to theme with Themer...

I am impressed by it and can't wait to see what they bring in the future.

Got a free code for Themer: TJMUH7. Enjoy
I tried it, but concluded that Themer is basically for the less experienced and the lazy users. The biggest problem with it is that it requires you to set it as your default launcher, which means that you lose all the useful features of nova launcher or whatever custom launcher you had before. No matter how simple it is to switch themes, the launcher is too important to the overall android experience to replace it.
With that said, if you take the time, you can port whatever full theme you like from mycolorscreen.com using the appropriate apps and get proper theming without replacing your launcher. Personally, themes are not a big deal because I feel like I will get bored of it very quickly. So I just stick with changing the wallpaper once a week and call it day.
Its a pretty cool app that makes theming your phone really easy by just selecting the theme, downloading it, then apply. It's kind of like the MIUI theme app but I think that was for just lock screens. There was a couple really neat themes I liked, I just couldnt sacrifice all of my nova launcher settings for this launcher. Plus having quick access to my most frequently used apps on the desktop was a must.

I agree. Why not make your own? There are some really nice features. The themer everything widget just like uccw but imo better implemented. You can easily, without another app, set different wallpapers for each page. I'm pretty optimistic that it will turn into a great launcher, possibly better than the competition.

They just removed this from the voting yesterday, maybe they are adding this in soon?
I ultimately stopped using themer for the time being due to lack of functionality with G+ and Hangouts. I really like the unread SMS and Email counter that you can add (like I did with my modified "Now" theme), but something similar should/could be added for G+, Hangouts and surely other things that people use (voice, skype, IRC...)
BTW, I have nothing to do with this app. I'm fighting my hardest to stay stock/unrooted with my Moto X and themer is pretty nice helper when I start to get bored.
