more specifically are you referring to changing the wallpaper are changing to vanilla? Are you using froyo or sense?
I found Widget Locker in the market for $1.99
Might be a good solution for you if all you want to do is customize the lockscreen.
Turned out to be exactly what i was looking for when i was doing research on changing the lockscreen. There are multiple slider layouts available like changing from the htc vertical slider to an iphone slider for example.... many options available, one of my favorite additions so far

Hmm, I've not had any issues with battery drain. Not with WidgetLocker anyways, Bluetooth is what kills my battery quickest, Bluetooth & live wallpaper with high settings
Youtube has a few video reviews of WidgetLocker if you want to preview w/o having to purchase.

First of all, has anyone tried Laucherpro Plus? It has a ton of widgets that are built specifically to be similar to the Sense widgets (e.g., message widgets, mail widgets, calendar widgets, etc.). It's $2.99, basically if you dl Launcherpro from the Market you can upgrade to it.

Secondly, there are many widgets out there that replicate the Sense widgets. Someone mentioned Beautiful Widgets, which serves the same purpose but doesn't look the same. Do some digging on the forums and you'll find Fancy Widget. It was taken off the Market by HTC because it looks exactly like the Clock/Weather Sense widget.

Thirdly, the launcher dock for Sense acts like the launcher dock for Sense. Sense is the Launcher setup, which includes specific widgets, the same way that Launcherpro has its own widgets. Think of the launcher as the controlling aspect of the operating system; it defines what you can and cannot use in terms of shortcuts, folders, and widgets. So in short, no ... but you certainly can make one look a whole lot like the other. It just takes some work.
And yes Fancy Widget looks exactly like the sense weather clock, and works great, I have been using it on the LP for a couple of months now and no issues, Google it you will find it still in a couple of forum and you can scan and download it. I would post it here but I believe it is against the forum rules, so if you don't find it PM me and I will get it to you
Hello all,
As a new user I'm apparently not allowed to post links at all until I'm verified. So that means you'll have to a little leg work to find some things if you're interested.
This is my customized phone. I used the same background in my blog; The icons I made in a roundabout way—Bobbyperux over at Deviantart, made a pretty all inclusive tutorial on how to make them. It even had a video. You'll need to know something about Photoshop and have a tiny bit of patience. I changed the font to futura and the color to white. Except for the android market, ha. Little color never hurt anyone. The phone is rooted, non-market apps are enabled, and I can sync to my itunes with ease. Mac user.
Anywho give it a whirl--the icon pack is called up to date icons.
Id like to change my icon set too. Do you have to be using launcherpro or can u change them on the stock TW?
Thx.

The news widget is called buzz box-- its pretty nifty. You can choose from a ton of sources within the actual widget and it updates the news all day. I don't know how it effects battery life, but my captivate seems to be dealing with it just fine.

Yes, its LauncherPro. On the home screen I used Folder Organizer, as LauncherPro could can only change dock icons.
I know some people were requesting for the I9000 Honeycomb theme(s) to be ported over to Captivate. For those of you who were doing so, try flashing this theme with CWM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=958788. I am currently running FireFly 2.2, and haven't had any issues. The developer however did recommend deleting bootanimation.zip as it would sometimes cause a loop. I did so, then replaced it with a custom bootanimation. The screenshots in the original thread show LauncherPro being used. I however prefer ADW launcher, and it works flawlessly with the theme/ROM. Obviously its not exactly like the real Honeycomb, but it looks and feels awesome. Flash at your own risk. Take a look below.
EDIT: screenshots didnt work. see attached below...
Two more screens...
do u think it would work with cognition too? theyre based off the same rom rt?
I also flashed it to FF2.2. No issues. Looks nice!

I honestly could not tell you...I dont know much about the differences. I just flashed to stock, flashed FF, then flashed the theme on top. Had my fingers crossed the whole time....
Hopefully someone else here can indulge.

Guess not. But I do remember seeing somewhere on these forums a Honeycomb theme based off of Rogers 2.2. If I find it I give you the link...

What Calendar widget is that?
Good to hear its working. I will give this a shot. I was trying to cobble one together but its lacking polish since Im just replacing images and swapping XML files...lol.
I tried the other day but I think there had been too many theme flashes and something went wrong, so I had to go back to fresh sweet FF2.2

Give widgetlocker a shot. It's 2 bucks, but it may be the best paid app I own. If you decide to, then download "gauge battery widget" (without quotes of course), and put it on the lockscreen. Any battery widget will work with that lockscreen, and there are a lot of them on the market.

No problem. And give Phantom Music Control a shot. It's designed for widgetlocker and will give you control over the music on your lockscreen while it's playing.

I assume you're the developer. I could be wrong. I like the appearance of the widgets, are there anything more than the weather/clock widgets?
Thanks
Bought it. It's awesome. The widgets looks very elegant on my xoom's screen. The variety of widget sizes and looks make this one a great buy!
I was lucky enough to beta test this widget and it was a pleasure watching the developers upgrade and fix it over several months. They are quick to resolve issues and I purchased it as soon as it became available on market.
Edit: @ Saintfyre, the main 8x2 widget allows the forcast on right to be switched with a control panel similar to a power control widget. Things like BT, screen rotation, wifi can all be turned on/off. Beyond that, theyre just weather and clock. Its a replacement for Beautiful widgets.
@OP. What is the Theme you are using? And what is the small up arrow in the center of your notification bar?
First app I bought without much research, saw one review and small review at that in a blog, very happy I bought it, very nice widgets.
I decided to pick it up and was beating my head against the wall because I couldn't get the widgets to appear in the Xoom widget menu after long-pressing. Simple reboot takes care of it, for those who scratch their head like I did after configuring one and trying to find out how to place it. I like what I see so far. Thanks devs!

I believe he's either using a Galaxy Tab 10.1 or has found a way to run TouchWiz UX on a Xoom. Probably the first one. The arrow would be the shortcut TW has for the mini apps.

In your 3rd pic on the top you are using something that has large buttons as folders. What program does that?
Ok, while you're at it, where did you get that wicked Star Trek wallpaper? /drool
The folders are two apps. Desktop visualizer is a free app that lets you take almost any small picture and use it for a launcher button of any app or bookmark. Then you can resize it to whatever dimensions you want. I have that widget working with the app called folder organizer lite. You can put all your apps into different folders. Apply your own icon and resize away. It saves alot of screen area so you don't have 100 apps taking up real estate. I can post some pics if you want to see what it looks like. Both apps are free in the market.
And here is the uss enterprise wallpaper. But you have to use the multipicture live wallpaper (free) in order to get it to display correctly. Honeycomb crops the sh!# out of it.
