Pretty damn awesome

Yeah. I actually like it

I like and dislike it
It looks like HTC keys

Yeah. I like it but being a little bit "meh" because of the home button. But i think its better than a circle.

Definatly
Exactly what i was thinking realy

Status bar is a little different also

In the middle of the screen the add/start button in the app is rounded as the material design.

That could mean that maybe Sony has implemented some material design in their UI.

Its more hybrid than before.
Instead of having half n half its more mixed up instead.

The buttons are not aligned properly. and the square seems a bit small in comparison to other icons.

Yeah. Look at these photos.
Original stock Google lollipop softkeys:

Some guys on Androidpolice thinks that they changed the home button from circle to home, because of Playstation home.

While the home button itself does not look bad in anyway, the misalignment and size difference makes it kind of odd. hope its not present when it finally lands on our phones

Looks good to me

uhgs.
first time i saw a picture of lolipop and material design i was like "but i do like my old navbar buttons"
Not having Xposed will make it even harder to change ~.~
But i fear the worst will be to find good looking alternatives. They do have to be at least a little modern / Material design.
Guess i'll have to create my own!

Sure! After some fine tune adjustment, I will publish here!
Hope you all love them!
I'm partial to blue and blue-grey themes also... anxiously awaiting your blue one, the teaser looks great! Do you include homescreens too?
the blue looks nice so far. Can I make some suggestions?
In the Red you have the video camera, i think it looks good. Not sure about the lips though.
Also is it possible to make the incoming caller picture larger then stock?
Cant wait to see the end product
xelashiu,
Very good... at least this is the skin that support smartdialing, and video call... maybe you can design something like here. I like the skin but it doesn't have all the function.
again... applause for your great job!

This looks wicked. Kinda like a mix of iPhone, Htc Home, and Vista styles all in one cool today screen. I know someone here could make it work on out phones, I just hope they take notice of it. Thanks for the pics.
i love it

this phone has some potential, the specs sheet is pretty imprressive. but i love a physical keyboard too much to get these touch phones, dang.
i am down to install this theme. please can some one get this for us?
coooool thnaks for sharing the info
That's actually realy eassy to achieve with Throttle or rltoday... If someone is able to extract the graphics for that one I can try to do a theme....
yes it is very nice device and that interface is very slick.
How about for the touch pro?
I have a coworker who plans on getting this phone. I still plan on getting the HTC Touch Pro. I wonder if anyone could make this home screen work for the touch pro?
New pic?
Hey, where's the homescreen?
Currently it just shows a pic of the side of the phone? :-S

Yes. I really like that one too. I just think it would be cool to be able to switch between the two. I like the bar on the right side of the i900 display.

Some guy in Thailand is doing this as his local business, but since he's charging small to do this, I figured this is something easy and cheap that we could do ourselves. The question is what material is being used to wrap around. Would love to hear some of you guys' feedback. I'm feeling it might be some Teflon tape? Any ideas?
OMFG the pink one is cooooool
also the orange one *-*
white body, red sides, mirror screen film... DROOL!

From what I see, he did not disassemble the phone at all. It looks like some thin film that goes over the phone.

Yes, you can notice on the hole to pull out the battery, film is over the hole
I want! Hehe. Great to hide those faded marks on my arc
any links for this item?
i want the sides to be all black..
for preventive measure haha
Looks like a very bad job. Look at the edges you can still see the chrome and there are dried up blobs near buttons.

yes but he definitely got the two-tones colours right, especially with the black and orange one, I'm gonna look around online to see if i can get something similar going with my arc.
beautiful ,i like the white/cyan colour.
reminds me of a white/gold combo on some Blackberry sets..
gold anyone?

Nokia 8 - WP8 Device Mockup

Hey guys!
I was bored today and created a mockup in Blender 2.6.
So what do you think?
Huge screen, super thin and an elegant design!

I dunno why, but I like sharp edged devices. This doesn't scream "Nokia" to me though.

I think you may be right. This isn't what we used to see from Nokia.
Anyway, Nokia is the only WP device manufacturer I like but their design is worth to be redesigned to a new modern and elegant type of design. They don't look bad, but they don't look as good as many other devices.
Thats why I created this mockup.

Mind blowing work..
Sent from my RaZr NeXus.
why is this in black and white....why not add colors ?
I thought black and white is more elegant than the bright colors from WP.
Sent from my CM7 powered Atrix using TapaTalk \o/
where is the new wp8 startscreen
Screw new start screen, I want "BUY NOW" button
// of course that the "silver" parts would have to be aluminium or some other metal! Not any (cheap) plastic or such stuff!

Something annoying about Sony's ROM (Warning: if you see, you can't never unsee it)

This is annoying. Nothing is aligned. The Home button is higher than the Back button and the Recents button is too small.
The screenshot is from Nougat. Can I change the icons with Nova?

Not with nova, but you can use your Sony's theme engine to create a new theme with aligned icons or possibly find another theme with properly aligned buttons.

this is expected, nor XZ get any visual changes comparing to marshmallow.
Sony decided not to give us look from the X series, and we cannot do anything about that.
I am okay with Nougat update, I was waiting for this mainly because of the ´new´ status bar, and multiwindow, also I was hopping we will get the same camera apk from XZ, but only no, only minor changes with front facing camera and the settings.

They won't give us look from X because no one would buy X then.

It has to do with looking 'balanced' to our eyes. If you made the recents button the 'proper' size it would look bigger than it is. The home button would also seem too small. It's about the trick of the mind.
