Hey guys! I recently rooted my Dinc 2 and am LOVING incredible sensation. But I would like to jump into themes and moving a bit beyond the typical htc skins. Although I have yet to find an overall list of themes out there and would particularly love to see a white style. Nothing super complicated, just a white status bar(with proper black/inverted font color to fit) white dock, etc. Is there anything out there and is there any list for themes supported for this Rom? Anywho, thanks in advance for all the help. I'm REALLY digging this super speedy phone

there are currently only one standalone theme for that rom...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1227783 and i dont think its based on the latest release (which would have conflicts)
andybones has a few mods out for it...but really there are only skins out there
because the inc2 has a relatively small community (and fewer themers), you wont see many standalone themes for roms...in my case for our tsm roms i personally work on themes for them just for that reason

Hmmm that def makes a lot of sense (ha ha). Is there a comprehensive list of 3.0 skins or is it mainly fragmented though through different posts and off the market? Oh and will 3.0 skins work in sense 3.5.im seriously considering running the b,is of rummymede Rom. Thanks for all the help.

there are some large skin lists out there...but mainly just from certain individuals that made many of their own
there are some in the market...mostly its just all over the place on xda
sense 2.0/2.1 skins are usually interchangable...sense 3.0 skins i dont think will work with 3.5 given the big changes between the 2
hybrid roms it usually depends upon what version of rosie is used

I'm running Incredible Sensation v2.0 and it is 'Sense 3.0' but the build.prop shows 2.1
I have used a couple of these themes and they work fine.

yeah its 3.0...the op probably just forgot to edit it
So I can't post my thanks, or screenshots in the forum it belongs, so I figured I'd create my own post.
I have the T-mobile Samsung Galasy S II (rooted) with the Beastmod 2.5 ROM running LauncherPro (cuz I hate Touchwiz). My battery life has increased significantly, and the overall interface is much quicker and a lot smoother than the stock T-mobile with LauncherPro. I wanted to give props to |Melvin| for developing this, and anybody else that provided help.
I've attached some screenshots of my phone because something this cool has to be shared.

Most of the live wallpapers I use introduce lag when navigating around the home screen. Is this the case for everyone?
And if it is, why bother having them? Seems to favor style over functionality.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
I think everyone gets the lag. It's worse with some wallpapers than with others. It's not only the loss of performance but they also tend to use more battery. I don't bother with them. In fact, I like a pure black background.
Each to their own.
Yes its the case for everyone. Every LWP except "Phase Beam".
Paradigm runs well vertically with all lwp baked in the rom. Horizontally lags some. That said 3 of the lwp run well on my phone. Running stock and almost stock kernel.
bow chicka wow wow.

Then why have it? I don't get why Google would add a feature that slows down the UI. It's a tease. "Here, check out these really cool looking features that slows down the user experience."
Not yelling at you obviously, just ranting

It's not all live wallpapers. The ones from Maxelus (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...XhlbHVzLnNoYWRvd2dhbGF4eWxpdmV3YWxscGFwZXIiXQ..) don't lag at all - and the Galaxy Pack is pretty complex. I was using the Galaxy Pack for the last few months until I made an Aperture Laboratories (static) wallpaper.
I think it's more of a coding issue than the feature itself. 'Don't hate the game, hate the player' - as it were...
Here's a thread with more lag-less suggestions:

I was burnt out on Live walls when they showed up on the Droid 1
Disliked the performance hit then, dislike it just as much now.

I like Phase Beam because its subtle.
Ya know, if you turned off Wallpaper scrolling, that takes away a lot of the lag
Also, Force GPU Rendering on the UI helps a lot.
Renderscript is what runs Live walls, which is already GPU rendered.
I got really bad live wallpaper lag only on stock Gnex.
Flashed AOKP and franco and even the most sluggish life wallpaper is now smooth.
Hi. I just want to recommend this great speedy launcher. I am using plus version now and it is simply the best. Good performance, nice android 4 look, customizable. Also Holo Locker is very nice.
I totally agree. Quick, convenient, flexible launcher
It's integrated in my ROM..
agreed... nice launcher
hani nerede.kabul yok mu
A good launcher
It's a nice one. But it a bit lags on stock WFS ROM.

yeah it lags a bit... Id rather use LP give it an ICS/JB look its wayy better and a whole lot smoother!
yes, i used holo launcher for almost 2 years.. its not laggy, ang very smooth to use..
the UI is so impress but lags on WFS
I'm also running Nova launcher. It's recently updated its open folder background to kit kat style. Except you can control the transparency and the light or dark look. I imagine holo should be coming out with the similar updates soon.

im using this launcher for almost 2yrs and i love it!
Among the jelly bean-like launchers that can be used on gingerbread I prefer ADW launcher..
I bought ADW ex, and it used to be my favorite launcher. However, consider all the jelly beam like launchers are all updating constantly, ADW is the only one that updates one a year. Don't know what Ander Webb is thinking, but the launcher is far from perfect, his attitude towards his product makes not want to buy anything he makes, if he makes anything else. Perhaps they do things differently in Spain, and they never heard of concept of customer support. Anyway, I used to not like holo for I thought it was too plain, didn't have all the bells and whistles of launcher like ADW ex. But now my phone storage is full of apps, speed and space are my major concern, and holo launcher is nimble and fast. The DEV shows that he cares about his apps by updating it to kit kat look so it won't be out of style.

Just wondering if anybody else besides me notice that there is another holo launcher topic in xda forum. I think it's started by the launcher's developer. Nobody besides me posted anything there. Other than the description of the new updates holo launcher version. So why don't we move there and start given the DEV some suggestions?

holo is the best!
I agree, but where is every body?

its nice launcher

but i started using blinq now
its preety fast and smooth
try it
That drawing gesture has been a part of next 3d launcher since it first came out almost 2 years ago. I think I'm going to stick with next 3d. I barely use it when I have a slower device. Now I have to take advantage of my device 's spec and really enjoy some eye candy. One thing thought, main reason to use holo is to take advantage of its small size and speed. Even though it hasn't gotten any update in almost a year, holo still one of the few launchers out in the market that takes tiny admount of resource, but gives you lots of useful customization.

IF anybody is interested here is a great new launcher https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.buzzpia.aqua.launcher&feature=more_from_developer#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEwMiwiY29tLmJ1enpwaWEuYXF1YS5sYXVuY2hlciJd

I've tried it and it is really nice, but I uninstalled it because it consumed too much battery and ram. The final version when it comes out I will definitely try again
I use it, it works pretty good.
I installed this launcher to try the Chrome OS theme from mycolorscreen, The Launcher is pretty good, but i just cannot leave the fast and fluid stock one.

Likes good...has anybody got it to work on Nexus 7?
Edit: never mind I got it working on Nexus 7
Nice launcher, but it needs a bit more development.
This is amazing. Just downloaded it and it runs beautifully and love how it comes pre set up.
Rather confusing launcher, I think I will try it out again and try to get the Chrome theme on it, but honestly wasn't impressed.
This is not just another launcher. A completely new launcher.
Congrats guys, very innovative. More innovative than apple and Samsung all together
Gotcha, now after watching the tutorial video I see the potential this launcher has. Great work!
Just a very very good launcher, I'm impressed !
Buy it's very annoying to have to download a lot of gadgets for it to be perfect.
And some french traduction of the main app and of the widget are awful, that makes the application hard to configure.
battery
it indeed eats too much battery...but i have to admit, it does look good

yea it does eat battery on more ram but wait till they sort that out i think mite be up there with nova apex ect one day
second thought: after a couple of days using this launcher and paying close attention to the battery usage, I have to say that it does not drain as much as i thought. I guess it depends on what homepack you download/use.
This launcher really makes my phone a lot better looking, with very little time and energy. And the customization freedom is huge!
I have now officially uninstalled Go Launcher.

Its alot closer to SSL Launcher but in a clean more user friendly interface. Can't wait for it to be stable now. I put the Chrome theme on it that was shared earlier and its sick! Trying to replicate the Chrome theme on other launchers like Apex and Nova using Multi-Live Wallpaper and its becoming even more tedious. This makes things alot easier when creating a theme for mycolorscreen.
Corrupt colors and textures.. I was seeing alpha channel instead with some textures.
Beautiful and innovative home screen, high battery+ram usage, boring app drawner

This is a fantastic tool for customization, a congratulations to the app developers on this one. Let's hope it catches on and we get an influx of themes.
