Complete WP7 overhaul - LG Optimus Black

here is some idea and apps ( obviously the "free" ones are attached hereunder...get the other apps from the MARKET....don't be a PIRATE) to completely overhaul the interface to resemble WP7.
the APPs are:
1. WP7 theme: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1219691...thanks Mushroom_Lord
2. METRO UI/ Launcher 7: any one of them as the launcher.
3. WP Lock - the windows phone lock imitates the WP7 style on Android it's fairly light (63 kb only)...also has missed call and message count like WP7 lock.
4.PEOPLE HUB & DIALER - The App attached here ("people hub") imitates the "contacts" interface of WP7..the WP7 dialer is also featured here..looks pretty good. u an also get the following from the market if the provided app dose not work: https://market.android.com/details?id=milkmidi.minicontact&feature=search_result
5.PhotoSafariPro - the WP7 style Gallery for android...the only downside is it dosen't allow multi touch...but there is a nice "film" interface
6. for Music....use UBERMUSIC and the "METRO SKIN" for uber music. both are available at market.
7.keyboard - u can get WP7 skin for "Skinnable" keyboards like the Better Keyboard. use this link: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.popfizz.seven&hl=en
8. 7) FACEBOOK - the FB has got the awesome "live tile" (like) look...
i don't use the WP7 look now, so cannot give u the screenshots. however, try them out and u can get a very nice "WP7" kinda feel.
drop me a "thanks" if this helps u in customizing ur black

12 NOVEMBER 2010
TOTALLY NEW VERSION AVAILABLE
-- Check the video preview at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7WV5PheWX8 --
TO INSTALL
Copy 'Desire 6 page + menus theme' folder to Program Files\Lakeridge\Wisbar Advance Desktop\Themes.
Open WAD, enter settings menu, change theme (if theme is not listed choose scan for themes) highlight 'Desire 6 page + menus theme', menu - set as portrait theme, apply.
Enter WAD settings menu, weather, and set the small/medium/large icon sets to those attached to this post. Leave icon type set to Weatherpanel/Pocket weather.
The wifi toggler, BT toggler Radio on/off (fligt mode) and call history shortcut are included just in case you can't already create shortcuts to these options using standard WAD commands.
The Text Back folder contains shadowing to place behind text under your shortcuts, to look a bit more android-ey.
The Power Control Widget folder contains all the images I made for it, in case you want to change them.
That should be it!!!!
I like this better then the original theme, if you have any questions please let me know and as usual, all feedback is appreciated.
Regards,
wildcardspv
EDIT:
In this version, I disabled 'slide to change pages' in WAD, because when trying to slide up to access the page selection screen, it was really difficult to do so.
I much prefer to have the 'slide to change pages' function active as it makes using the theme see more fluid, so since uploading the theme, I've re-enabled it and set the properties of the taskbar (at the top) to 'switch to page' (page is called 'page select') when the taskbar is tapped.
This is much easier to use and I wish I'd thought of it before uploading the theme!!
If you prefer sliding between pages, try making this change too.

Regards,

[Icons][WIP] Social Icon Pack (based on Symbian Anna)

We (myself and energizerpanda) are proud to present you an icon pack (150 x 150 px) based on Symbian Anna. Some of the icons were taken from a system dump, and some of them were self-made.
The current pack has several icons, but feel free to post which icons do you miss, and we will try to create them.
Changelog:
05/07/11 - First release !
17/07/11 - Added icons for: Evernote, eBook Reader, Winamp, Cozi, Pocket Informant, Waze, Folder Organizer
Screenshot:
Download link: http://db.tt/EeusEUe
Don't forget to express your opinion !
Post Reserved
Looks great, gonna check them out when I get home from work!
Very nice icon pack! I searched the theme you based it on & downloaded those as well. Going through them to see which I'd use normally & which more important (to me) ones are missing.
Going to use some generics now (generic Twitter instead of Plume), but can you provide icons for:
eBook Reader (I use 3 readers, so anything you'd like for now)
Cozi (attaching image)
Pocket Informant
Waze
Since I don't see good generics for them. Very happy to add these to my icon collection since I tend to change icons every few months!
Edit: Regarding attachments, please use the the 3 little loops tings on Cozi (not the text), and likewise the little car for Waze. Actually, for Waze, may be better modeling off the icon I see on the appbrain page (http://www.appbrain.com/app/waze:-community-gps-navigation/com.waze)
We will update the pack as soon as they're done.
Sorry but how do I install these?
Copy the icons to your phone and download Desktop Visualizer from the market.
Thanks for sharing
Here are the requested icons by polstein.
I tested them on my phone and they look fine.
For the moment I can't add them to the pack but you will get them soon enough!
How can i resize them to 72x72(HDPI) without losing its quality ?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
A number of different ways. Most common as mentioned is Desktop Visualizer. That's a widget that lets you pick an app/shortcut & use a custom icon. It also has an advantage that you can have it point to an generically named icon - then you can replace the icon, reboot & DV will show the new image. Very useful if you change icons every couple of months for fun!
(also why you might see me on several threads requesting the same icons over & over again
An easier way might be to use an app called Folder Organizer, which also allows you to change icons & text labels.
Advanced people can modify the apk of the install & change the icon, but has some drawbacks that go along with it. But it's also the only way I know of to change an icon everywhere (like in recent apps lists).
--
I see the new icons I asked for, they look very nice. I especially like the textured background on Informant. How many icons did you want to crank out? I always hate overloading designers, but if you're willing I'll keep handing out requests!
Keep on requesting. Don't forget to thank energizerpanda for his hard work. I am only with the organization and researching.

Looking good, downloading now!
can someone please make an lp pack out of these?
thanks for the hard work, always loved the anna icons
@cavihit - We're working on making a LauncherPro pack but we have to add more icons.
Latest icons:
Please help me with your opinion about these icons because I need to know if I can add them to the pack.
Icons look good! So far the only one I'm not thrilled with is Waze (more because of their cartoony look that doesn't match the rest of the set).
Something I noticed last night when I replaced some of the generic icons in favor of the correct app icon: Some of the original generics look better anyway!
F'instance, I was using the 'carhome' icon instead of Waze, but I think I'm switching back to carhome.
Another example is generic Music vs Winamp (currently on Winamp). Still another is Calendar vs Informant (currently using Calendar!)
Now in a couple cases I needed the specific app (like Cozi, and there wasn't an eBook one).
Of course, best of all worlds for me is to have options & change them when the mood strikes
I'm making every icon for its specific app. (If you use the Calendar app then you should use the generic icon found in the pack)
I hope you all understand that I try to create icons that are not in the pack and not to replace the generic icons. (Only if requested)
@polstein - Thank you very much for your feedback. I'm gonna post new icons when finished so please test them and reply!

Kite UI - Coherent User interface *Theme*

Kite UI Project (Theme elements for Android devices)
In front of you is reincarnation of popular user interface Kite UI.
Instruction on complete applying of elements:
1. You need launcher which replacement of standard icons is possible in. The theme was tested on Lightning Launcher,
which has necessary features: 1) possessing a large quantity of settings, it remains to be the fastest of offered on the Market. 2) Movement on the screen
can be carried out to the left, to the right, down, up and on a diagonal, in difference from other launchers, who offer transition between home
screens only by moving to the left and right.
After all that there is a question, what is Kite UI? How the movement on the screen should be carried out? If you saw a topic on xda-developers, you already
are familiar with structure. If not, I will tell you, it should be carried out comprehensively. Probably, with a little differences, than
in Lightning Launcher, but nevertheless, very approximately. Still App Drawer is built standardly in it.
Certainly, to achieve the necessary result in settings, you should spend a little time in settings of a launcher. From the most important points of
settings, I will note, in the line :Number of columns" it is necessary to put value 3, and in "Line height" - 75, if your screen has not got more or less than 3.5 inches.
Otherwise you should experiment with settings.
!!!. You can use any launcher for a theme, I only give advice. If you're not familiar with any of the launchers you can
just install a BetterCut app from the market.
2. You need to download the UltimateCustomClockWidget (UCCW) app to apply and issue the clock widget on the main homescreen.
3. Super Status Bar. Even with the trial version of this program, you will approach status bar of the phone to the status of a Kite bar as much as possible.
And everything is at a minimum of spent time. You don't need additional application of themes, which will be unlocked in the paid version. Standard design
is already approached. !!!. Similar programs, such as, for example, Status Bar +-Custom Status Bar are possible. But design of an appropriate look
I can not guarantee.
4. Music player. Not compulsory procedure. I looked long for it. I use TTPod with an orange standard skin, thanks to its fast speed of the circulation, the built-in 12-band equalizer, strengthening of basses, shake function imitation, and madly beautiful design.
5. Widget Locker. I included the backup settings of the application. Well, and Kite Locker certainly. So, I think it would not be a hard work to adjust it for long since everything here is provided by me.
It is necessary only to put icons and widgets there. As a clock for lockscreen for example I use UCCW too.
THE ARCHIVE CONSISTS OF:
1. 40 Kite UI style homescreen and 49 app menu icons.
2. A Kite UI clock widget, with author's backup settings along with 50 day and 49 night weather skins.
3. Nearly 80 HD, FHD and UHD landscape and 16 abstraction wallpapers. The Kite design looks perfect with every of it.
4. Exclusive fonts to set up date, etc... including original Kite UI font ("kite" folder).
5. The well-known Kite UI LockScreen on the basis of Widget Locker. Simplicity and grace.
6. The well-known Kite UI wallpaper with the clouds, recreated most approximately to the original taking into account more than 80 layers of a photoshop. The original eclusive KITE UI wallpaper is also included.
7. Many variants of demo icons and weather skins, so you could see all the progress been maken.

Thx a lot to everyone testing my work, still it's not ideal, but I did my best at my spare time. Of course I'd be very glad if someone could make a coding part, so it could be selling as a launcher on the market. If this superhero exists, feel free to p.m me. E-mail is entered at first page.
