hi,looks good, I linked your work to two UIs threads here on xda.
It's similar to "the host".
Since it seems the author has no time to work on it, why don't you message him and keep developing both apps in one?

looks promizing !

Looking forward to live tiles.
Thanks for sharing

+1 Please

How do you start this without rebooting phone every time? It runs fine on reboot but if I exit, I can't start it again without rebooting phone again. Running the exe from the instal folder only ends up in an error message that requires it being shut down.

i move (cut) the file MetroHome65.lnk from \windows\start to (paste) \windows\start menu\programs, and i can run everytime i wish without any bug, and do not start ant reboot.

Thanks but, that didn't work. I still get the same error when attempting to start it up without a reboot. It did give me an idea - a shortcut to the shortcut in startup folder - but that didn't work either.
