okay, am a noob so be gentle if i go wrong or violate any rule
in this post, i would mention some apps to get as close to WP7 interface as possible.
none of the applications attached in this post is made by me. each of them are collected from internet. if i violate any rule, feel free to warn me.
1) 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
2) Interface - i use Launcher 7 as it not only supports 2X1 horizontal tiles, but also 1X2 vertical tiles and widgets which is pretty awesome METRO UI is also good (it has a better WP7 statusbar than Launcher 7) both these launchers support "LIVE" tiles of Contacts (displaying pics of your contacts), counts missed calls, unread SMS/MMS, unread Mail count, etc.
3) 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
4)PhotoSafariPro - the WP7 style Gallery for android...the only downside is it dosen't allow multi touch...but there is a nice "film" interface
5) Music - there are many imitating the WP7 music player but the 1 which suits the QVGA resolution of our X10 mini is UBER MUSIC
6) Keyboard - the WP7 keyboard....this keyboard is also available in blue colour if you want, just surf up google
7) FACEBOOK - the FB has got the awesome "live tile" (like) look
if I helped you, kindly press the "THANKS" button

1st of all, i thank u fr da screenshots thanks a lot
nw f da PhotoSafari Problem, i used it wid my mini and it actually fitted the screen perfectly, even u can go to market and see for device compatibility yourself....and for contacts, i had da notorious "parsing" error, so i never actually got a chance to test the same.
and i am already searching for the WP7 mms/sms style for quite sometime now...will keep you updated if i find something ......anyway, thanks for taking your precious time and testing these apps, thanks
i found mms.apk, contact.apk, phone.apk allmost everything styled in WP7 for android but it is made for Galaxy S I9000 so if someone know how to comile it to our phone will be great

Hey ,
I saw a HTC video with iphone interface on Dailymotion.
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4uaqo_qtek-s200-spv-m600_tech
As you see, this basic rom with differents applications is very fast and stable.
I search this basic rom. Anybody knows what is the version that this men installs on his HTC? For the differents applications, I found by myself
Thank's a lot for your answers and sorry for me English... I'm a french guy...
that's not a special rom, it's just a ui software named" PointUI"
more info here:
http://pointui.com/
Thank's a lot
This is AWESOME!!!!
It's so much faster than iFonz and Throttle Launcher.....
I keep on tryin' right now.....
Does anybody know which Internet Browser the guy in the video use?

this application is awesome.
test it now.
Cool interface !
I tested it ! Very cool and very fast !
Internet Browser is "Picsel Browser" !
Smooth use and easy on the eyes
I've been using it for two days... it's not glitchy like the Throttle (which I like very much nevertheless), far beyond the iFonz... but it's not really a iPhone style other than the slide lock - though not as customizable - but uses far less resources; the weather forecasts are spot on with decent graphics.
The interface takes some getting used to - like navigating Applications - sometimes the scroll is so fast I miss the app that I'm looking for.
Good bit of kit, maybe someone could integrate this into a ROM... if that would be possible
Cheers!
yes it's possible
Hey Max!

I figured you'd know the answer to that... hope to see something sweet from you in the near future - your ROMs and MODs are always a pleasure
I'm not sure if the creators would give consent for it :S...
PointUI is a very great app.. If they only would make it more complete with some more features it would be perfect as it is really fast!
is it just an application?
can i install and use it without flashing?
thanx
sure you can.
Just go to their website and download it
Does anybody has a link for picsel browser?
I'm afraid, it is difficult to get....

Hi all,
WM 6.5.x is really nice to use but as a big lack of task manager.
As I couldn't find anything that works well I gave a shot at WKtask, thinking it wouldn't work... I WAS WRONG !
I already posted this on the Diamond BSB Rom thread, but I thought I'd share it for people with other devices. Hope this helps some people !
WKtask creates somekind of virtual OK button where it used to be on WM older builds. It can be set to various actions (OK/Close, Minimise, Launcher, etc...). That button is skinnable but unfortunatly covers up the last 2 digits of the time... so we make it transparent.
By changing, the position, the skin, Icon style and colors you will be able to adapt it to you're theme. (Use the settings in the posted screenshots to get what I did or play around to adapt it your way)
What do we get after this ?
If you use the same settings than mine, what you'll get is :
- A windows pc style taskbar.
- WM OK button, minimise applications and works simply as defined.
- WKtask invisible virtual OK is set to terminate applications
I haven't tested all the functions but everything seems to work ok, i tested :
- battery Gauge
- launcher
- hiding applications status
- exceptions
- skinning
It seems that WKTask disables the new WM6.5.x top ruban with Battery, network, etc icons... personaly I don't care but for those who do...
Thanks to Waku for a great little tool : WKTask Homepage
Thanks to MiToNiOeS for iPhoneToday : Original thread
My personal iPhoneToday theme : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5095211&postcount=2781

This is such a shame!! i would have loved to try this, but if it disabled the Topbar i cant use the WM Notification Manager as i have removed the HTC Enhanced Notifications!!
Is there anyway to get this to work as it is not really a solution if it breaks something else!
Really nice idea tho, i would love to have a try with it!
Can i ask, what version of total commander are you using in the screenshots? all the versions i have tryed are really hard to use on the HD2!!
thanks for your work and answers in advance

Did not help much it is covering icons

I no longer use BSB G Rom, I now use Benko's Ultra Light
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=606064
Some small things are not working fine on BSB'G... and this rom is tiny -50Mo
And, thanx to YOU, I use Sashimi so it really doesn't take long to flash and be up and running...
Anyways, by settings the right offset to half the screen if I press anywhere on the icons the rubbon seems to work (for now)
Another "kind of" workaround would be by using the WKTask launcher to access the functions you normally get with the rubbon.
On other this about Benko's Rom is that it includes a basic but perfectly working task manager and associated to Ameba a long press on the start button brings it up
See screenshot
As from Totalcommander it's 2.52 beta 2 available here

Sashimi rocks!!! best auto installer available!! shame the dev got permanent ban from this site for making it!
Apparently it is warez! It uses a trial version of SKTools through the command line and because of that its warez.

Wow, first Landscape for 2.5 and now this! You must be some sort of genius! Good luck and thanks for the efforts
I was only thinking about this 5 minutes ago
Really good idea - can't wait to see this one!
Thanks.
Sounds great... i just dont want to use manila 2.5..
that's interesting.. sounds very good..
If you can do that, may be you could also port Appointment Editor from 2.5 to 2.1..
it's so annoying to add and edit appointments in 2.1 via standard outlook dialogs.. with the stylus..
really looking forward to this - thank you very much for your effort!!
Any news on this?
very good news!! thnx, i love Manila 2.1 & full speed.
Wwoooooowww, Great !
It would be a really cool feature, thanks a lot.
this one really excites me.i look forward to see it.thanks a lot.when will it be released?

man you pull this off i will be in heaven.
awesome!! just today i am using a manila 2.1 ROM it's so fast compared to 2.5 right now and it's so hard to hit the button combo for to tri-color screen it. This is the best news I've heard all week!! wish you the best
Oh my... This is just plain awesome. Wish you luck!
This would be awesome, this and the twitter tab are the main reasons to use 2.5 and if we can get the shortcuts in 2.1 then I can live without the twitter tab!

Thats my story!
About 2 month ago i found a tablet for me! It was PoV Mobii! First impression was "WOW it is really better then china Iped stuff". Then i realise that this tablet is a good one according to its hardware specs but is really weak according to soft part of it! So after some time of normal usage i decided to make it better!
Now its 2 weeks i am dealing with different issues and weakness of soft part but i think i'm done now.
Curently based on CorvusVegaRom. I found this ROM most fast and stable!
Used soft:
ADW Launcher EX
Beautifull Widgets
Switch Pro
Desktop Visualizer
Trillian (as ICQ and Skype client)
Picsel Smart Office
Memoires
RockPlayer Base
Pulse
Power AMP
Better keyboard
Activity Express Task manager
So basicly i have deleted all useless apps and found most usefull apps i've seen!
Then i made some design for Launcher and configure all the apps to let then do what i want.
Ok and that what i got now.
Sorry for video quality! My webcam is prettu bad!
And sorry for half of tablet soft in Russian!
feel free to ask

HomeCustomizer by Adrian DC : http://arcsgatebyadriandc.comze.com/ics_homecustomizer.html
Useful with : [Script] XperiaHomeManager for SONY ICS ROMs
The application will allow you to set your own settings on the Home application of the SONY ICS ROM,
just by following simple choices at the beginning !
The script handles the apk decompilation, editing and recompilation,
aswell as the build of flashable zip at the end for the installation of the files !
Provided apks are working fine with the SONY ICS ROM 4.0.3 and 4.0.4.
If you find anything wrong, or have a bad rendering on the phone with some of the options,
please post a comment with explanations on the problem and the Installation Details string,
for example, "HomeCustomizer-4.0-7Scs-A5x4-Rot-Ion-HAFI-ALFI-HTD-11px-HWA".
Thanks to vr5411 who helped me for some of the functionnalities and for the new Home apks !
Thanks to Pandemic who first tested the Application with Xperia GX Home !
Bye !

No that's because I don't want any old versions linked online,
I first want to have a version finalised before release..
I'm still working on little changes and improvements,
therefor beta tests are welcome and much appreciated,
like papayayoghurt did since the beginning.
I'm someone who prefers a finished work over a rushed one.
I hope you do understand.

I have a version 2 Beta 2 working pretty good, contact me by PM, I can give the link directly.
Tried the beta version...
Chose nxt home
chose screen indicator at bottom (xperia ion)
But I got the screen indicator at top (xperia s)
chose 4*4 app menu
but I got 4*5 app menu...
Anyway Im really looking forward for the full version...

In the Beta 2 you tested :
As indicated, the Ion indicators aren't finished at all,
I started it 3 hours ago? something like that..
It needs to be finished.
I'm working on the Ion for 3.1 Home, will get on 4.0 afterward.
Yeah, the 4x4 has to be reactivated, don't worry..
Hi! I don't know if it's possible but could you also add a feature to include a dockable corners like the modded homescreens on gingerbread? You know.. The bubble like thingy on the corners on which you could put your shortcut icons.
I'm not sure about that at all...
First I'll try to have everything working fine, then I'll see how the corners work..
I think my ion settings are working great, looks fantastic on Home 3.1, but Home 4.0 still to be finished.
Static wall never worked do far so I'll look into it soon, same thing for 1 screen home..
Bye
Envoyé depuis mon Xperia Arc S.
Thanks! You could take one of the homescreens of the smaller Xperia devices like live with walkman, xperia mini pro etc. They have the bubble corner thingys in their homescreens.

Yeah don't worry I know where to look.
But I'm not sure it'll work with 4.0 aswell, maybe only the 3.1 will have it..
I'll try, don't worry, but I need some time since I have other things to do too.
News, sorry for double post :
What do you guys would think of a beta version released?
I might release HomeCustomizer v2.b3 as a Beta test version,
almost everything works fine now, I even got the static wall working,
though there still is a bug with landscape static wall, still, nothing bad..
I tested top corners, woaw, I hate both their design and functionnality xD !
Won't work on Home 4.0, they removed the unneeded things..
But I'll try to see if I can add it too...
Bye !

Ok, getting a lot of request so I'll look into it..
Would be pretty easy to release, just gonna have to reactivate its download
on my website and upload the pack, the tricky thing is to finally build
a beta 3 version ! As I am testing many things now..
Maybe tomorrow !
Will let you know..

There's a problem I need to solve before releasing HomeCustomizer.
I did add Changes Logs on the webpage if someone's interested..
I think he's asking for the home.apk with 5x4 desktop mod in your screenshot not the home customizer itself Just clarifying things out

Yeah but since the Home I presented was a test build with my HomeCustomizer,
and since it wasn't finished at the time, meaning the Home.apk wasn't perfect,
and since it still isn't 100% perfectly finished, you can see both things
are more then directly linked together ;D
But the problem I was talking about earlier seams to be gone, so release nearing itself ^^
