How to make my vibrant the coolest EVER!? - Vibrant General

I'm running on Bionix-V ''2.2 (Froyo)'' by teamwhiskey.
What else would make it really really cooler and better.
And optional: Whats the best apps?
Thanks!

depends on how far u wanna go to make it that kool.. the vibrant will never be the koolest fone ever.. not even wen it was released. but wut u can do is install a Front Facing Camera, flash the new gingerbread leak (has a lot of bugs, only in Beta as of now) and thats basically it. with gingerbread on it that should make it cool enough considering not a lot of android users have it

Simply Galaxy/Sweet Honey 2.5 is pretty cool. You should check it out. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=973208&page=50
When CM7 becomes more stable, you should definitely check that out

Axura or Trigger Axura has a boatload of themes in it CM7 when it is no longer beta......

Trigger + ADW EX + Ninja Apps + Widget Locker = Profit

@OP
I use atriarc, nothing else. no addition kernels, no modems etc.
It works perfectly the way it is.
It gets updated every week so its hard to keep up but i found the first version the best and i haent flashed a rom since.
Fast, beauty, and stablity usually don't come in 1 rom.

You make a wallpaper in photoshop with icons... then you set your wallpaper, and place blank icons over the wallpaper (the wallpaper is the icon).
If you use Trigger, you will love the wallpaper I just put up.

Launcher Pro;) 10/10

This home app brings Sense alive,
Especially if used with PaYs new BS ROM
Absolutly amazing
JD
I agree it is pretty good shame can't use some of the sense widgets.
Because i cant use sense widgets i wont use it..otherwise its very fast and nice.
Its far superior to helixlauncher isnt it
When added with pays oc rom it really does the business
JD
If i had the option to remove/replace the icons at the bottom it would be perfect for me. Nothing else added or taken away.
Its still beta, i think that will come in the alpha)

Anyone notice in the screenshots they have the htc clock running? Looks very similar?

Got a good free 1 for the clock
It's called: WF Clock widget
I think it looks better but u can't manualy update it so if it's not displaying the weather u should wait till it automaticly refreshes.
has anyone seen a widget/switch for mobile data/3g+/H that works with launcher?
you know like the ones you can set on sense via add widget>settings>data connection.

+1 for this, I'm just using AnyCut at the moment to shortcut me to the Wireless/Network settings.
I'm disappointed Beautiful Widgets doesn't have one too...

[Request] MIUI w/ stock icons

As the subject reads, I would love miui with stock icons. I know some of you may not agree, but people say that my phone looks a lot like an iphone at work when I show it off running miui. That's not a bad thing, I personally don't like it though. Anyway, if someone could come out with a "stock" theme (or whatever your want to call it) then that would be amazing.
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
You could just use LauncherPro or a similar dock. The icons will still have the colored box around them, but they will be much smaller. Obviously the four big icons at the bottom will be gone as well.
That's the thing though, I like miui's launcher, but I don't the icons. I don't like their blocky-ness, if that makes much sense.
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
I agree. The icons blockiness and the fact the app icons can't go into a "drawer" are the only reasons I went back to Virtuous.
+1000000000
No app drawer
No android stock Icons
Despite the fact that this MIUI Rom is awesome, those 2 things made me going back to my old android stock ROM.
And what is the interest to put an alternative launcher since if you put a launcher (LauncherPro, Zeam,..) You lose the MIUI advantages...
They should considerate that app drawer (and putting app in that drawer) is (in a ergonomic point of view) is the best thing ... Since Day 1 there's a "menu" in every phone, and seeing all my apps on the homescreen is a little bit ... disappointing me !

there is also a new calendar via the test market, which shows version 3.1, so unless google has changed their version numbers on their market, ie, Froyo's calendar is 2.2.1 and GB's is 2.3.3 then most of these apps are 3.1/Ice Cream apk's and are going to be backwards compatible with previous versions of android.
As a side note, Aerosmith and Cage the Elephant then Backstreet Boys? seriously...
Hahaha. I have a little bit of everything!
it overwrites the touchwiz right?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Not sure. Probably. I'm not using a touchwiz rom.
works on CM7 and MIUI if anyone's wondering.
it didnt over write anything if you just install it.
tried it, TW is still better though this is beta.

If you havent already, check out the "Recent" view in landscape. Pretty cool, Dont know why they dont have this option for all filters in landscape though...

So finally we have the gingerbread...

...on our Galaxy S,...
... But where is the Gingerbread launcher?!
Let me explain.
I've tried all launchers,free,paid,good,bad... But my favourite and best is the one from nexus s,or the "real" gingerbread... And I had it!... on froyo... And it worked perfectly! But when I upgraded to gb(jvb) and installed all the gb launchers I could find,they worked,but not perfectly,on the app drawer,all of the apps are blurry! And thats really bad...
Why is that? Is it maybe becouse the market versions of gb launcher are compiled for older versions of android? Is there a way to compile a version only for 2.3? would that solve blurry ugly icons? Is there a way to install the apk from nexus s? Does anyone have any idea how to solve this? I would really appriciate any answer/help. And please,dont try to tell me: "try adw/lp/go/ or any.other launcher" :-D
Thanks...

Please. You can use any damn launcher that you can get to work. You don't have to buy a new phone, nor should you...
To the OP: Have you tried this?

I don't like Touchwiz either so I installed ADW Launcher ex with the gingerbread theme. It looks exactly like the stock GB launcher IMO except that it has far more options to configure your UI.
Wave launcher might be worth a look .

@Duckbert
I'll second that. ADW launch + Gingerbread theme & icons - perfect !
I bought a used SGS from a friend best shape.
Then I upgraded it to rev B 2.3.3 and wantes to see the score in Quadrant.
The score was little 938 but at System information i got
Current freq: 400MHz
Any idea why?
So finally we have the gingerbread...well we did but it was taken away

Show your SSLauncher screenies and share your setup

I saw a thread elsewhere in XDA about this, but lets make it all about the Evo... because different phones can do different things. That being said, I am an ICS junkie, and coming from GB the one thing I really missed were the screen transition options and customizabilty of the launchers for it....Sure Apex and Nova are great, but lack the holy sh*t factor many GB launchers could give you with themes, icons, docks, and screen transitions. I haven't heard about this launcher in the Evo threads, so I figured I would share with others who hadn't heard of it either. Once you figure this launcher out, you will fall in love with it and what you can do with it. It plays well with ICS roms.. even HWA ones and works well with GB roms. Give it a shot, you won't be dissapointed. It evens gives you an option to save your setup in a zip file to share with others. Everything you see is fully customizable even down to the font.
Here is the market link for free version
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ss.launcher&hl=no
I will start with my ICS setup - AOKP 33.
GB to follow!
