Best iOS makeover for m8? - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I want to redesign my phone with an apple iOS feel, it doesn't have to be 1:1 but I'm looking for matching icon packs widgets (zooper pro) wallpapers, viper themes and the likes.
Any pointers? I'm currently using Nova pro btw.

Why, would you seriously want to make your android look like an iPhone?

Nova isn't a good clone. Try iLauncher with iNoty and Slidelock . That's as close as you can get.

Yes, that is my philosophy as well, it's what makes android so great.
Thanks for the input, I'll check them out once I'm home, any more suggestions?

I wonder if on an apple forum somewhere someone is asking how to make their 5s look like a M8.....
Those apps @Shu. suggested are a good starting point.

Yeeees, right. I shifted the end-letters for fun ...
I've been trying to work out how the SDK image would work on actual handsets, and the only answer I come to is "crashariffic". If you set up an AVD to run at 480x800, then it defaults to a regular Android skin, but Launcher crashes. However, it works if you set the LCD density to 100 or less - but then it would be unusable on all but the largest of handsets - the Desire HD or Dell Streak, for example.
If I had another handset.. er.. handy, I'd try flashing my SGS with it just to see.

Not a good idea.
But maybe some parts could be useful for optimization or theming.
I wanted to try out the new clock font for the lockscreen.
No luck so far. On Froyo, or Gingerbread it's Clockopia.ttf.
On Honeycomb it's split across two files named AndroidClock.ttf and AndroidClock_Highlight.ttf.
One for vertical and one for horizontal bars. I can only get one to display.
Any ideas on this?
gallery doesn't work too
Can somebody tell what works?

Nothing will work
The apps were built for a higher API Level, so it wont install without modifications.
You modify the APKs and hope that they dont use any new APIs.

Just read that it will work with 3rd party home like Launcher Pro so problem is in the Home app.

[Q] Today in History Widget on Launcher Pro?

I know it's an HTC widget, but is there any way to use the "Today in History" widget on Launcher pro? I'm kind of a hitsory buff and love this thing
Nope, sorry. Only works when using Sense.
Damn, I was really hoping there was a way to get around this, oh well. Thanks.

The dev this on his page on Jan 20th:
Look out for another update soon (maybe next week?) with a cool new addition for LauncherPro Plus users!

Still, though, I haven't seen the cool new addition that he might have been referring to with an update. I'm a new purchaser of LP and might be completely out of line but it seems a little bit like dangling a carrot.
I have a feeling LP is brewing up some really good stuff, it's been quite awhile since the last update.

Okay, i'm sorry but its crap
just one language, you have to register and really crappy graphics
Thanks for sharing. Someone's clearly gone to a lot effort here - though it seems a shame to hide Android under a Windows skin!
Very interesting. Definitely a lot of work put into this. This is deinitely NOT sh*t as stated above. It does have a few issues most importantly rotation FCs.
If it allowed for moving the non maximized windows this would be extremely cool. Still playing, but probably not quite polished enough or full home replacement... BUT really close and really cool!.

Pretty true.
Id suggest not to play with system strings. It can be verry risky. Nice attempt tho. Need graphics look a bit too animated.
Thank you very much for all comment. At this time I have went back to Zeam Launcher already.
Ok it is fine
just for the fun

Rom with Tablet-UI?

Hi, I am new with Android and I usually use iOS and Apple products, so I am sorry if this is a stupid question.
I am searching for a rom which has a Tablet UI and not an upscaled phone UI , like my Nexus 7 2nd edition has.
This seems like it shouldn't be too hard to find? All I have found is a xposed module that does it, it works so so..
Is there any other way for me to have this? Maybe I have missed something in the settings? TIA
