Default [SKIN] Safari-HD MDPI Sense 2.1

This is a modification of the Slate.apk that ships with the Wildfire.

I took a majority of the images from Safari-HD theme that is posted in the skins section and resized them to MDPI.

Since I have no clue about building it into a user-installable skin and renaming it, I did what I knew I could do... replaced the Slate Skin with my own.

I loathe the rounded Sense Launcher. Not just a little.. a lot.

Installation is easy, as long as your phone is rooted.

Do this:

Quote:
adb remount
adb shell
cd /system/app
mv Slate.apk Slate.default
exit
adb push Slate.apk /system/app/
You may need to restart the phone, then pick the skin from the skin picker (Slate).

There may be bugs... I'm running it on JMZ's ROM and it's working well for me.

If anyone would like to make this into a user-installable skin, I'd appreciate it. Feel free to use it in ROMs, etc.. just give credit if you do. ;)

Enjoy!

That's because they're from a sense ROM. I pulled and resized them from Safari-HD.

I'm not one to copy people's work.
