So, I was very bored, and I made a concept. I'm sure you've all seen GridOS, and I know that you've probably seen many people asking for it. I really wish we could get something like this going on android. I know literally nothing about creating apps (yet) but I wonder if the designer of Launcher 7 would be interested, my concept is basically a 4-way-scrollable version of his existing app. I'd be willing to help with graphics in ANY way.

I feel that this should be in themes
It would be nice to see grid os, I thought it was built on android? They say they can use android apps so I'm assuming yes we just need to port or *a* port.

Actually, this isn't just a theme. This is a hopeful development thread for a full-fledged home replacement app. I contacted the developer of Launcher 7, and he said that he doesn't have time to work on anything right now. He did say, however, that he was playing around with the idea of a Windows 8 launcher for android, but that this looked much more interesting.
Very interesting idea, actually more interesting than the Win8 layout itself. I haven't got right now time for coding tablet, but if I prototype it again, I'll definitely look at this approach over win8.

Recently a hacker successfully installed Android 1.5 on the Iphone 2G. Is the opposite possible? (Android running Iphone OS)
alpha124
Only Apple knows how to do it. And they won't.
But in theory they could use ANY hardware. But they won't.
Why do you want to run IPhone OS on different hardware in the first place?
because we can?

If you manage to get ouch-phone OS (if you where to translate "iPhone" phonetically to Swedish you'd get the equivalent to "ouch-phone") running on other hardware than the fruit company's own hardware I'd take my hat off...

I'd like to see someone try! Even maybe an iPhone theme for Sense would be pretty cool, in an ironic way of course.
android is open source, so it's much more adjustable, therefore it's more "easy" to get it to work on the iphone, than the opposite.

yeah I also thought of that, but was kinda hoping it would somehow work.
I'm fairly sure it's possible, but I don't think it's possible to do it with full functionality.
well I would be happy if I can make and receive calls
Even if it is possible I am sure that the OS has a built in check to confirm it is running on their hardware.
I don't know if this counts, but...

It's as smooth as aHome?
I dunno, I've never used an iPhone. Just like the look of it.
i see that we have the capabilities to use animated wallpaper but our stock ones suck booty lol...is there any good ones out there cause i saw some that android uses and theres were pretty cool and im a loyal wm user soo we must compete lol...
agreed! anyone know of any good ones?
I dont but figured I'd bump the post up as I too am very interested
Interested in this also.

Another bump.... I searched previous threads and couldn't find anything useful...
there was a thread full of them but alot of them where just regular ugly wallpapers that people put then threw the animations from the stock ones on top. i wouldnt bother. wait till someone fixes android.
Hello all, I am new here but is there really no other real animated themes out there for win 6.5?
yeah,, i have been looking also, cant find any animated wallpapers that are decent........

Pass on the live pappers
Where are the live pappers

Apparently you can get some Live Wallpapers with Throttle Launcher. If that's something you are willing to do. I tried Throttle Launcher .8 and It was buggy and wouldnt work well. But it is just a suggestion.

i have seen a very cool feature on a friends galaxy S. a rotating wallpaper. when he switched screen by dragging behind was a wallpaper of earth which rotated with the screen.
that would be a really cool feature to put on the touch pro 2.
Cheers.

I was curious to see a "native theme" and to see if it asked for any Permissions when I went to install it.
It installed and I am able to select the theme and it even applied (pretty nice, even the icons are sans-backgrounds) but it's been showing as "Installing..." the entire time...

I did a Restart to see if that would kill the ongoing "Installing..." progress and that took care of it. I'll email the Developer and I figured I'd post my experience here, in case anyone ran into the same *issue.
It's a pretty slick looking theme, although the circuit board image is a bit too much for me. I like the clear icons and the Android-green throughout. I'll ditch the circuit board lock image, but it persists throughout (e.g. in the App Tray).
Some screen shots...
I'm one of the few that actually likes the mySense/TMO twist on Sense and while I've tried LP and ADW, I'm quite happy with stock. Standard issue just feels better sometimes.
I also realized some might not like the images posted inline, but I'm a fan of not having to click to open an image (unless it's got a thickbox wrapper).
I talked to the developer of this theme also (really nice guy)
He did an amazing job on it.
but the green is not my thing so i have been talking to him about how he was able to make it. (only one i have seen)
he said it has to be done by source so im looking into that.
i would love to start making themes for the my touch 4g.
i dont have the phone im just working on a port for the incredible and would like to make some themes for all the people using the port and would post them here also.
So far this is pretty sweet. It isn't too far ahead of (Or different than,) our stock launcher, but it is pretty fun to mess with. Dig around in it if you install it, I keep finding neat features.
Oh, from what I understand from reading the posts about it, the zip contains 4 APKs. You MUST install all 4 of them in order for any of it to work.
The widgets probably only work on the home that comes with this. That's what I did and it works. I am running pretty much stock rooted with the V8 Bootloader. I think that I.C.S. is really the only requirement. So it might work with many ROMs.
Enjoy!

It works and does look pretty cool I must admit. But you're right, sadly the circles widget only works on the included home app. If it ever works with third party ones such as nova prime it shall earn itsself a place on my home screen.

It has many clocks including the Atrix Ring, works with any launcher, I have it on my Razr with apex and looks great.

They are giving us the new Touchwiz icons that look like they are the result of Touchwiz being raped and getting a back alley abortion. Nooooooooooo. I hope they at least include themes so that we can hide that mess. Then again, by the time this is actually released by Verizon, I assume a lot of us will have already moved on to non Samsung phones.
I think the biggest UI upgrade I can recall occuring on a Samsung device was maybe when the OG Note got Jellybean and looked fairly similar to the Note II and picked up some new features. Otherwise, Samsung has traditionally let as little as possible trickle down from their latest flagships to "last year's" model when doing updates---look at the Note 4 or the Note 3 Lollipop situation , for example. Neither phone was as smooth or as refined under Lollipop as it was under KitKat (I do not recall if the Note 3 was better under JB or KK). I certainly do not expect things like theme support or manual camera modes to ever trickle down to the Note 4. I'll just be glad to get its RF and battery performance back to where it was with KitKat.
I highly, highly doubt we ever see this.

His demo phone seems to be very laggy as hell with MM 6.0. Hopefully by the time we getting this it should be better.
It looks like it has a few things I might like. But the icons, dear lord are they bad. Way to iPhoneish for my liking.
The settings menu looks decent to me though.

Exactly why I hope they throw in themes. I hope somebody asks on the youtube page. He's been answering questions. (I tried to ask, but youtube won't let me sign in since I deleted G+ and my YT channel.)
