[MOD] For My BMW Fans!! - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hey guys, don't know if there are any other BMW fans out there, but this is a simple launcher mod I did for myself so I thought I'd share it with you guys. This is on my rooted stock LTE 4.0.2 build, but I'm sure it will work with other builds as well. It is based off of the search bar removal launcher by djmcnz. Anyways the screenshot and flashable zip are found below! Enjoy

Hell Yeah!!!!
I had a 1991 M3 E30 loooong time ago. One of the best handling cars at that era. No electronic bullcrap to hinder your skill. Pure machine.
I'd love to get that M logo as an icon. Care to show me how to get it.

Ahh I'm so jealous! I absolutely love that car and would love to get my hands on one.
In any case, I tried the M logo real quick. I gotta realign it, but let me know if you like this and I can fix it up for you sometime this weekend:

Ohh, e30 M3 - the legend. I want one of those.
I've got a mint condition e36 3.2 6 Speed LTW Coupe... Estoril Blue with Dove leather interior. Number 288 of 400.
It's in storage now... 20,000 km's away from me...
Vanity plate is: M3AN

Liked it but didn't like the rest of the mods on that launcher. I do love the BMW roundel as the app drawer button. I want to make that work on ADW EX, as that is my launcher of choice.

You can use custom icons with Nova launcher.

Yes but I like adw because it stores my layout when I flash roms. No need to recreate my home screen layout every time. Does nova do this as well?

Agreed!! Looks very nice though! I am excited about this thread. With the display on this baby, we are gonna get some pretty impressive screenshots!
Will upload mine once i get my hands on my very own SGS2!
Well my first 24hrs on Android have passed, and I haven't enough time in the day to try everything out yet, so this is what I have so far.
The other screens aren't anything but icons so haven't spammed the thread with them.

Yes,that's exactly what i am saying,it will probably be launched in last week of May but it will be by June only when it will be available all across India.
Don't go by any bull**** retailers date{or anyone who is saying & spreading this false news of it's launch on 1st May}.
Network 18 Tech Guru,NDTV Gadget Guru,Times Now,iGyaan all these prominent Indian shows & Forums were there at Samsung Asia Summit held in New Delhi & have hands on with SGS 2 but they all have clealry mentoned June as the month of it's launch in India.
I hope it turns out otherwise, but i do not see it happening.

As the op mentioned, its called the htc sense mod launcher, but underneath its adw launcher. I used it on my sgs1 as well, and whats cool is you can also download the sense launcher themes that work with to change it up a bit. I hope the creator of it updates some of the features to make it more like the one from sense 3.0. that will be epic.
Here's a link to the orig thread.

This is making me look forward to my SGSII coming Tuesday/Wednesday even more. When peoiple are posting their screens can you also possibly post an overview of what you're using e.g. launcher, wallpaper source, any mods etc as would help people like me out loads when we get our devices Thanks
Mine was launcher pro lol... There was a htc sense version of it on here somewhere ages ago... and it comes with the htc widgets

Theme expansion- A little help deciding

Could the kind people around here please help me decide which of the two sets of buttons i should use in a theme:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I like set 1 as they are simple and elegant, but......
i like set 2 and they would be easier to expand into a theme.
Please share your thought's.
You can either post or vote your opinion in the poll at the top.
Which ever set is more popular will also be created in a variety of colours.
Thank you in advance and i look forward to your feedback.
Sorry, i forgot to ask,
What base would you prefer??
*GB 2.3.6
*CM7.2
*ICS 4.0.*
*CM9
The WIP name for the theme will be "moist couch".
Set 1 by far. Looks more professional to me.
1....10 char
Set 1, the second one does not feel pleasant to the eyes.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
As people above stated, definitely set 1 , looks more professional and more pleasing to the eye... At least to us, I guess
Yea dully mate set 1 looks hot. A theme with that would be nice. optional colours sounds even better.
Yeah thats what i thought,
I had already started overhauling the framework-res with style 1 but i didn't want to get too deep in to find out there would be no interest.
Here's a preview of the btn_check/circle/close/ that ive done so far, this might help make your decision slightly easier:
Awesome
I prefer ICS 4.0.3 base.

Lol sorry I was agreeing with the consensus, #1! And what you put up a couple posts ago! I'm on cm9 alpha love that highlight color your using. Used your themes on GB too thanks for all your great work bro!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Since at the moment most people are using CheckRom v6 or Hyperdroid v6 i would say GB base and maybe later if you have the time port it to ICS Samsung stock since I personally think that in the end most people prefer stock rather than Cyanogen if they want something more stable and fluid...
And I also voted for the first set
Ok so style 1 is 3x more popular than style 2 but i thought style 1 was lacking something, a bit of colour maybe on the normal button?? Anyways......
Style v1.1:
Better, Worse??
Thanks.

Haha thats what i do.
I prefer v1.1 for reasons you stated, im all about the colour.
Someone(quite a few) asked me to create something simple but with colour.
TBH, i probably wont even use the theme after i've created it, im still using Phone Candy and probably still will long after Moist Couch is released thats why im asking.

Galaxy Nexus N7 Mass Effect 3 Edition

Hey everybody!
I am a HUGE Mass Effect fan. And I mean HUGE. So I decided to mod my galaxy nexus to look more Mass Effecty.
This will be a multi-step project over Easter break.
The first thing that I did is order a custom laser etched battery door (Thanks Android etch!) and it came out brilliant!

Step 2 is the touchstone induction charging mod detailed here Parts are on the way I ordered them today
Step 3 is a custom paint job. I have a question on this one. What kind of paint would work best on this phone? Model paint? Also how can I safely remove the verizon logo?
Step 4 is a custom icon theme. My buddy (soon to join the forum) is helping me with this. The theme will be CWM flashable and have custom icons as well as custom navigation buttons! Suggestions appreciated.
I'll update with more pictures as I progress in the mod.
Thanks!

Where can I get a custom back plate? Yours looks awesome!
Thats pretty cool. If I were to do something like this. I would try to find or make a vector image of Commander Shepard in an action pose to go along with the N7 image.
But still cool nonetheless.
I'm Commander Shephard and this is my favorite battery door in the Citadel.
Big fan here as well. Played all 3 with my Paragon Infiltrator Shephard. I won't go into details of the ending though lol.
Bit of a setback. The inductive charging modification doesn't quite work with the custom battery door so tomorrow I will order a modified design on an extended door. Thinking of Normandy SR2 right above the n7. That or "Fight for the lost".

Choose red I heard you win a reason to argue why the ending was rubbish.
45 dollars and they couldn't etch it without doing it wonky? Nice..
This is awesome. I take a break from starting the entire series over (did paragon, now for renegade), hop on XDA and see this. I may have to do something similar, such as:
Shepard.

Too bad it's on Gingerbread. Porting this over seems like a step backwards.
Maybe if they actually upgrade it to ICS...
But the 3d launcher is just too cool.

Yeah I used Google Translate, and watched the video. The video guides you through it step by step.
My SH-06D has a 720p screen, so the theme looks perfect on it.

I thinkif you set system theme to dark it will at least go grey instead of blinding white.. Other than that, I think an xposed module could change that!
Standard question: Why not simply using Nova Launcher? Will do this and much more.

I think that would definitely be true if we were back in jelly bean/ice cream sandwich days. The phones weren't the most powerful, the os wasn't as mature, and tyre apps weren't as optimized..
But now, dude, our phones have 6 Gigabytes Of RAM! And with at least 64gigs of storage and a beast mode processor, I doubt there's anything our phone can't handle. (Within mobile computing of course lol)
So, I definitely think you should try nova. I've been using it for 2 or 3 years without any problems whatsoever. It's a well developed app, I wish it came with more phones automatically, it's of fantastic quality. Try it!
