Android users, how the hell do I get this theme?

Noni Juice · 15 Apr 2011 at 17:54

Hey guys I saw this picture online and I really, really need this theme in my life. NOW!

How do I get it? What do I do??? Also how do I get the circle battery meter in the corner?

I have an HTC Desire by the way!

Cheers!

You'll need to root your phone for starters, and then see if you can find any info about the theme itself on XDA (or wherever you found that screenshot).

Head over here for a browse.

Looks like a gingerbread 2.3 rom. Are you still on the standard rom?

Noni Juice · 15 Apr 2011 at 18:07

Whats a rom? Guess I have some reading to do.

By that i'm guessing you're running the standard rom. It's basically the software the phone is running on.

Looks like a very nice theme indeed.

Wait, wait, wait, hold up...

The only thing in that image that requires root would be the status bar, everything else can be done unrooted...

Unless I'm missing something.

Custom system font, doesn't that need root?

The weather and power buttons look like

and I'd guess the launcher is

I assume he wants the status bar

It's not stock gingerbread at least, both power and wifi icons are 'wrong' for that, are we sure it's not the stock status bar from something like touchwiz/motoblur/sense/other-crappy-manufacturer-ui?

Can someone post up a guide to do all this 'root' stuff and the 'rom' stuff. I love the above theme and am in need of learning all this stuff for when I hopefully get my desire next week

The terrible spelling would bug me every time I looked at it

The weather and clock is simi clock, the rest is just skins and wallpaper id imagine, perhaps adw launcher i know that's not launcher pro being used.

As for beautiful widgets, no chance as i have that.

Antelopethy · 16 Apr 2011 at 13:15

I can't help but notice there are no less than 4 different weather widgets on that - pointless or what?

weringo · 16 Apr 2011 at 14:24

Really nice background and clock on the first page

Wonder what they are...

the clock is simi clock, as for the background i dont know.

weringo · 16 Apr 2011 at 14:28

How do you make Simi Clock look like the one on the first page?

hux · 16 Apr 2011 at 14:41

You go into settings and switch on the battery stats and weather widget, it's quite simple to figure out, you just tap on the clock and the settings bar pops up.

weringo · 16 Apr 2011 at 14:53

I think you two are on about the clock on the second screen, not the first.
