using ultimate launch i can slide to different tabs. the home tab is blank and less cluttered, if i slide to the weather tab i get the htc home plugin so its not always there.
I'm still trying to figure out a way to get this as a simple install but it might be a step by step tutorial instead. there is A LOT of configuration involved so we will see. It should be available shortly though
it seems much better than HTC home!!!!!
wonderful

id sure hope so, it is a lot more involved and way more possibilities than htc home, i do like the weather in htc home though but the other tabs of it are not needed

How do you manage to remove the tab bar in the HTC home plug?
Even if i only have 1 icon/tab the bar is still there
looks great waiting for release with simple way

thanks. i'll give it a go
Whoa!!!!!!! U R The Man!!!! These Look Awesome. Waiting Eagerly
thanks guys, i appreciate the compliments!
Beautiful theme, really can't wait to see some step by steps on how to replicate your theme.
No, I don't mean the app specific themes, I mean deeper than that.
Essentially I have a theme which I used entirely (up until I reflashed MCR and realised I love default Sense style ) but now I want only to apply the lockscreen and the notifications blind.. How would I go about doing this?
Also, what images make up the dock of Sense? Just incase I decided to mess with colours (folders on the phone and name please).
Thanks.
The dock of sense is in the folder res/drawable-port in Rosie.apk

Those are the default Home, not Sense..
EDIT: they were in drawable-port-480x320
If I want to apply them with Metamorph do I need to include every image in the drawable-port-480x320 folder or just the edited ones?
Also, anyone able to answer my other Q's?
Just the edited ones.
Anyone able to drop the names of the Lockscreen pull bar and the Notifications blind images?

Has anyone inverted the color of the gtx theme. I like the look but i honestly wish it was black.
Anyone?
I've seen more people requesting this.
The 'problem' is that when you invert it, you will get nearly the same look as the original HTC theme.

Yeah but i love the original htc but i also love some of the fonts and design choices made in your original work.
A combination of stock and your work inverted would be in my opinion perfection. Not to say i'd expect anyone to go out of there way but i'd done a google search and nothing came up.
I think the main point for GTX is having a bright color theme and Black Text Font, which cannot be intefere with the White Text Font in Original HTC Theme. So, demand for the black GTX....? Not necessary
Black GTX? Try out the Dusk Skinsuite by grzegorz10!
Original Touchflo slider
Hi there!
Does anyone know where can I find the original slider icons (icons+slider background) from TouchFlo3D from Blackstone or any other VGA/WVGA device? I'm trying to find it, but all I have is some modified versions. I have a HD2 and hate the current Sense 2.5 slider look. I'd really love to have good old TF3D... Please, help me with that or at least tell me what to enter in the search engine (I've tried slider / icon / iconset / default / manila / stock etc. in every possible combination - nothing!).
Thanks...
Hey guys, could someone direct me to a tutorial or write one up for me on how to make a custom lock screen? I found a wallpaper I wanted to use and I'd like to make one that fits the theme of the wallpaper.
Thanks!
The easiest way to go about it is to simply purchase WidgetLocker and use one of the many themes that have been made for it that can be found in the Android Themes section of XDA. If you simply want to change the sliders and wallpaper for just the unlock screen you will have to edit the framework-res.apk, the files for the sliders are in the "drawable-hdpi" folder. There are tons of tutorials on how to edit framework-res.apk all over this forum and the rest of the site. I'm not sure how to go about changing the wallpaper separate from the home screen wallpaper, though I know it has been done using MetaMorph so maybe look into that. I hope you were able to get some idea of what you need to do with this! Good luck!
I just found out that when I go to settings--->display--->skins
there is a skin called '' blue edition-blue sense'' and that changing the theme on your phone and you get theme on the clock widget and desktop look like sense 4 don't know where did it come from but looks nice even the clock font of the numbers is like sense 4 them thin numbers even if you kill me dont know where did it come from...looks nice though
yes I found out where did that thing came from....it is from there http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1549580
that means that it works on completely stock unrooted rom you can delete the thread sorry if its useless
