You want to theme your Desire without Root?

---

Hi there,

For the customizations addicts, I just made a new Home that allow you to theme your desire very easily!

http://www.cyrket.com/p/android/com....162.FreedHome/

You will loose all your HTC widgets, but if some graphist want to work with me on this, just contact me.

I am now developing this home on my new Desire Silver :-p

Give me feedback if you have time.

FreedHome allow you also to hide the notification bar if you want ( press menu to see it) and this kind of fullscreen mode is quite cool!

It also allow you to uninstall applications by dragging icons more than one second. I get this idea from launcher+ and home++ ( thank to them)

Any feedback appreciated.

I just made the option to choose the size of the icon grid.

A 5*5 or a 4*5 is really nice on the Desire!

Looks just like Helix to me. But i like the idea of 5x5 icons.

I think the main difference between the 2 apps and what I am focusing on is to allow the user to create easily his own theme by editing some ressources on the SDCard. I wanted to make this feature really easy to do for everybody.

Maybe I am wrong, but I haven't seen such a stuff on other home replacement for now.

That's a feature that I would like to develop on my application.

You can now add your own shortcuts with personnal icons!

Theming has never been so easy!


I still need a little bit work on the UI and correcting bugs, but all seem OK for general use.

Let me work on it a few weeks and all will be perfect.


Hope you will enjoy my hard work.

Nice work, will be a great tool when finished.

Is there any way of getting a 5x5 grid onto the original sense UI? I really want the extra line for app icons but don't want to loose the look of the sense set up. Also can you add extra screens to the sense UI? It would be great to have 9 screens like other mods but keep the sense look and the helicopter feature.

Cheers,
Keiran

yeah i miss those features too, but still, great app!

There are elements of Sense, HelixLauncher, and FreedHome that I wish all of them would take from each other and put into one home replacement.

Sense: The pinch Expose-like feature to see all workspaces is fantastic.
Helix: The ability to add small shortcuts on either side of the program launch icon at the bottom (but I wish you could add widgets, too!)
Freed: The ability to customize number of icons per row and column is excellent. Wish you could define that per screen, perhaps, but it's good.

So if somebody made a launcher that allowed shortcuts at the bottom, had pinch-to-Expose, and could define different grids per screen, I'd be in love. As is, well done with FreedHome, profete. A very nice app so far.
