Looking for white Froyo-like theme

Hey,
I was wondering if anyone was in possesion of a file with a white Froyo-like theme - same as the one in Androbin & EzHero ROM releases to flash on other 2.1 ROMs?

Thanks but I did not made myself clear... It's my bad.
I use these two instead of the Sense, as a matter of fact my ROM has no sense whatsoever. Anyway what I AM looking for is that white taskbar with Froyo like icons and not the launcher. ^__^

Yeah, I've seen it. I don't think that I'll ever have enough time to learn it...

Custom Docks!!

found a thread on the LauncherPro Forum, docks are being shared on there.
http://www.launcherpro.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=854

Thanks! Love LauncherPro...

since i'm too lazy too create an account in the forum there i will post mine dock here. hope you like it. It's just a 2 tone dock nothing fancy.
EDIT: added a snapshot to get an idea of what it will look like on your phones.

sweet, thanks for the heads up

thanks for sharing your dock, if more people share could make this sticky

Yea, that would be nice. Come on guys let's see them docks.

Here is mine from my CM5 theme. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696285

I think you should change the title to
"Launcher Pro Custom Docks"
then people will realise what this thread is really about

HI, how can I get a dock like this on VillainRom 12?
Is it only for non sense ROMs?

Docks are gay and iphonish, sorry just my opinion.

create a folder on ur sd, place the docks in there
while using launcher pro open up the "appearance settings"
dock > custom > select the one u want, from the folder u created
ENJOY!

[Q] Finding amazing theme

Community,
I am sorry to make my first post a request. I was browsing through this forum the other day and came across an amazing theme/rom (cant remember which). I didn't know a whole lot about how to do what so I went to investigate what I needed to do to get my phone to look that cool. Now that I know what to do, I cant find the post that had the theme/rom. Here is what I know.
-It was in the past day or so that I found the post and I am pretty sure it must have been in one of the first pages of the captivate forums.
-It might not have been the main theme in the post, and instead been a link posted at the start (crediting the inspiration of the theme)
-There were pictures of screen shots in the post
-Its look was very metallic, almost rusty
-There was a circle segment going across one of the screens, I think it was the dock on the main screen
-very simple, dark and apocalyptic
If anyone has any clue which theme/rom this might have been, I would be forever in their debt. I would also appreciate any advice on how to search better for this...I have been at it for hours.
Thank you so much,
Dezdemona

Thanks for the reply. I do like that one, but it isnt the one I was referring to. The one I was looking at had a brownish red type feel to it.

Who knew? My browser history actually came in handy. This is the one I was looking for, if anyone is interested.

Different animations when swiping home screen?
Does anyone know what them or launcher uses the option to change how you swipe through your homescreens?
Also, when i was running COG 3.04 i had a scrollable bottom dock bar..can't seem to figure out how to get it. Couldnt find it in the options menu's.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The reason you had a scrollable dock in cog 3.04, was because it came packed with launcher pro (I think..). Launcher pro has the option to have multiple docks. It also has different transition options between homescreens.
Another that does the aforementioned is adw.
Hope this helps!

So you are running a HTC Droid Eris theme on your phone?

That's a nice theme, I'm likeing the keyboard/keypad interface. Has a very fresh/clean look to it, I wonder if I could use it somehow..

[Q] Rooted and ready to go. Pleas help.

I know it's android and I shouldn't want to do this, but I want a real looking iPhone theme/rom.
4 Icon Dock
iPhone Dock Style
I want it to look exactly like an iPhone 4 would, so no 5 icon dock with 4 icons and an app drawer icon. I want 3 icons and an app drawer icon.
Thanks in advance

research helps.
look into launcher apps first, no rooting needed for that.
"roms" or "themes" that need rooting.... you wont find one that looks like iphone
research
research
re- search.

Yeah I have been researching for a few weeks. I came across MIUI, and the ADW Themes, but they all look kind of.....off. I probably won't find anything closer than these b/c of copyrights, but I have hope

well ADW themes doesnt require root.
there are dozens of launcher apps, there are some that are really close to start. then you can go find icons and docks that look really close then put them all together. and BAM.
part of the customizing has to be done yourself. but the apps make it easy. by letting you customize.

MIUI is probably your best bet.
But can I just ask why you bought an android phone if what you wanted was an iphone?

I don't like iOS, just the look of it. I also wanted to try a bunch of roms to see what I prefer.

Sense ui is slow---but who says your hero needs to look boring to get speed??

Who says your phone needs to be boring to be fast??​
look at the screenies below and ill guide you to get your desired look
without sacrificing speed.
first you should pick the best vanilla gb rom you can find.
id recommend roms by elelinux and the OMFGB rom you can find it in the android dev forums for the Hero g2.
Im using OMFGB after using elelinux also, but i like some of the cool options and mods omfgb has although elelinux rom is a bit more speedy. ​
now ill tell you the apps i got on my phone tht cause the look
1. Agile lock ---- For the Salsa sense lock screen.....really responsive, even better than stock sense rom for hero.
2. LP Slate Sense is the sense clock without the animation for less memory consumption there are apps tht include the animation but i dont recommend them.
3. ADW Launcher EX and gingerbread theme for system icons and adw elegant theme for the dock icons. to change dock i cons drag and drop the app and just tap and hold and tap on edit and then on the icon then on adw elgant and choose icon u wish to use
4. for speed turn off animations, use rom toolbox to zipaling apps and setcpu to change ur cpu frequencies to max the closest to 710 the app ur using allows not in the 700 better something like 680 and min to 310-360 and scaling to smartass
5. now get the theme chooser theme finder app from market and look for theme naked simplicity
6. now if you have any issues just post it here and ill help you
dont forget to thank if you found this post helpful

Are you trying to tell us that vanilla is boring? You can do literally anything with vanilla, you can be boring (most people like to call it 'minimalist') if you want, and you can be super complicated.
I prefer to go with the minimalist theme, and for me, sense is ugly, the only advantage is widgets, and I get them with LP+ anyway. This is my last screenshot.
Boring enough?
Whatever... Thanks for the guide, but that sort of stuff is pretty well known.

Man, please tell me how you got that theme working! I've been looking for something this minimalistic for ages, with slidescreen dead and such.

+1, that looks sweet here is mine:

Andyt95 - could you write a few words about the setup? Looks like a killer to me. I recognize uber music widget, and I guess.. minimalistic text with variables for sms and missed calls.. the lockscreen is widget locker, right?

You're in luck that I write step-by-step instructions for most of my themes...
On the lockscreen is:
- widgetlocker
- missedit
- ubermusic 4x2 with Metro skin
- Cowon D3 slider
Homescreen
- Skinned mClock
- Missedit
- Ubermusic 4x1 with Metro skin
- some old dock which I found somewhere and I've had sitting on my phone for years.
Ok, follow these links for a bit, and you'll find out what's going on
lockscreen overlay and missedit.
wltheme // I've completely lost the D3 slider, so go fetch.
UberMusic and the Metro skin are on the market.
Wallpaper
mClock skin The xml is called 'miui178' owtte
The CM7 theme is an edited version of Z25's MIUI theme.

Thing is most ppl with a hero are always waiting for a sense ui release for the lates firmware just for the look, because they think vanilla is boring. truth is vanilla is very custumizable and speedy..tht is what i was trying to show.....i would thank all you guys who post ur themes and looks for the hero here...to show tht vanilla is the bomb for looks and speed.
thanks ;D

Truth is, on older phones newer sense versions feel like bloatware. I've been waiting for months for froyo sense (with camera, how can one live without it?), ditched waiting, went vanilla.
Never felt regret about that, even for a moment. There are better things in life than sense
Anyways, I wanted to keep it under wraps for a while longer, but whatever, why not mention, since we're talking here vanilla-power, how about this:

(can't post image directly, cause.. well, for a while I have an xda-noob status. ekhm..)
It's my own homebrew theme, so I could use some constructive criticism. Cause after what I've seen in post#2, it makes me wanna change the decor completely..

Hey
i love the clock on your homescreen! I downloaded the xml... but the background of the clock is not there. Is that just photoshopped onto your wallpaper? or am i doing something wrong?

sl slate clock is a pay version there is a skin for fancy widgets for free in the market,,

there is no clock background, it's the overlay for the wallpaper. Read the attatchments properly, there is an overlay thing in there... I get the feeling that the only overlay there is the iPhone-y one straight from Chris, but I cba checking... I edited a few of the images Chris made, you can do it yourself, but if you really really want it and don't want to do anything yourself, I suppose I could do some digging...
