Question [Q] customisation apps (launchers, noled,lockscreen etc) can we see some video ?

after scouring youtube and finding nothing Im going to rely on XDA , anyone care to show off with video of their customisation, the S2 has no notification light, not a great launcher and a pretty janky looking lockscreen - otherwise seems a beast of a phone, would anyone care to show off? I would love to know if the very few shortcomings of the device software (and the led deficiency) can be fixed easily with third party software

pretty please?

sounds good but coming from a htc hero I love being able to glance at notification light when I enter my office again and know without waking the phone if i got anything new...

of course, you could show off the combo via some juicy 24fps streaming goodness ... ?

wow , that looks slick! I don't know the default lcd density for S2 but I assume that 202 was to fit more on screen? smaller fonts etc?
nice one!

Default density is 240, 202 is indeed smaller fonts and icons so you can fit more!

202 Seems a bit strange, It might look better at 200. By my calcualations the effective pixel numbers around there work out

Density
202
Resolution
950.4950495

570.2970297

Density

I appreciate that mate, nice to see a decent lockscreen and some non touchwiz in action
