To the hardworking developers, with due respect, i have been using PAC ROM since long time on my LG OG, one thing i am missing from the very first day is the customize able rows and columns both in the Home Screen and App Drawer, and Re size able icons, specially in 4.4 build the icons are so big and have an order of 5 columns, so they don't look good, if the respected developers could please consider my demand. thanks to all in advance!
sorry wrong place, please delete,

Launchers of like Touchwiz, iPhone, MIUI and DELL android tablet use those squared backgrounds for the icons on their home screen.
I've searched XDA for a themer/dev who has done this but no luck.
People seem to rather remove the iPhone's icon style but I think it looks nice.
Now I want to achieve this effect on a Sense or non-Sense based ROM without photo shopping every icon.
So is there a way to mod a Standalone Launcher like LauncherPro or ADW to have this icon style?
I'd love to help if any dev wants to give this a shot.
Thanks.
Ah, on second thought, I posted this at the general android forum because I can get more answers there, sorry.
Please delete this thread.

RE: How to customize my phone to this extent...
Hello,
Before I begin, yes, I understand that I am new and that this is my first forum posting, please, do not judge myself.
---------------
Anyway, I'm a new to the whole customization scene. I stumbled across a website named 'mycolorscreen' (I can't link due to a lack of postings), some of the designs that our human race creates are simply beautiful... but, there is a flaw... a big flaw on my part, I have no-idea how to re-create any of them. I've been told it's simple... but I just cannot get my head around.
I am going to be as blunt as humanly possible when I say, how do I make this exact design for my device (again, I can't link the URL);

I've been searching for the past hour on how-to-do-so, I now have a severe headache.
I'm sorry if there's a tutorial that has been posted already, but again, I am new here, so you'll have to bare with me.
Any help would be deeply appreciated.

It looks like just heaps of Widgets added to the home screen using desktop visualiser mate. First of all get that. Then get some images you want as the tiles, and add widget

It just custom icon set and not interactive..
There is link for custom icons set in comments.
You can try launcher 7 for this type of customization.
It's all Desktop Visualizer with just different sizes & icons - nothing else.
Get 3 homescreens, set these: ://dl.dropbox.com/u/http://dl.dropbox.com/u/73796776/73796776/Screenshot W8 style.rar as individual wallpapers, using something like 'Multipicture live wallpaper'.
Download 'Desktop virtualizer' and set the widget sizes according to the size of the icons on the wallpaper. I think they'll be 1*1 or 2*2, you may need to change your launchers homescreen grid size. Then set the desktop virtualizer widgets to open the specified apps. (Set the widget that is over the 'gallery' icon to open the gallery app). Hope this helps (sorry if it didn't, PM me of you need more info/help).

Thank you has all.
Hi guys,
I'm sharing these applications because I find them really beautiful. First install Win 8 launcher and then install 8.1. Then you have to apply the 8.1 theme through the Theme tile which has a T-shirt icon.
Kindly please give feedback on this.
I want parallax and option to change background of tiles just like start theme in wp 8.1. What i don't really want is regular transparent tiles just like the other competitor. Here is the example of what my suggestion looks like:

You suggestion in not showing on IE. Do you mean like when multiple tiles are showing a single picture just like in pieces? If that is so I'm afraid you can't do that with conventional methods.

This is definitely the nicest Win 8 launcher I've seen yet.. AWESOME JOB!!
What are the chances of you sharing the source code? Would love to help out and add in some features to it, I'll probably try and decompile it and see if I can hack in some of it for now though but these are some things that would make it perfect:
1) support for more grid sizes like 5 rows instead of 4 in portrait mode
2) better landscape mode for apps, different grid size for apps (6 across 4 down)
3) better landscape for start mode (right now in landscape mode the top icon ends up filling the whole screen at once instead of keeping the tiles the same size and filling them in accordingly)
4) better support for 3rd party SMS apps (it won't let me change that at all for badge count)
5) support badge icons on other apps as well
6) make status bar when scrolled to the top of start screen stay color of the top tiles instead of default to the black (so it's like it is when its scrolled down but always)
Thanks again, your launcher made me feel at home again after switching to android from windows phone!
Any updates on this application? I really love my 1520, and now I have a Note 4 and I miss the UI and live tiles of Windows Phone.
can we have any other launcher.This is a great one,but want some more.
Same here.. Really looking for a good Metro UI Launcher for Android.. I HATE Androids home screen..
GOOD
