Default KIN Skins

Well, the time has come.

Kinuser1 has gotten into the phone and was able to reskin and change configs a little bit. Making the phone have no icons and no status bars on bottom (time and recent).



Also a few glitches were found.

Indeed sir. If I get access to the KIN's filesystem, then I'll try to make some modifications to Themes, Apps, and maybe Sounds.

Interesting, very interesting.

But on the other hand, i think that skinning is the last thing we should do, if the OS storage is opened.
Trying to open any non-kin-native App and/or the storage to the "user" like crazy peeps could be better.

So i like that "few glitches" instead "reskin"

you can follow all the progress on FaceBook page.

I personally want to reskin the most. If new OS becomes available, then I'll update.
