For the one who loves minimalistic design, give a try to MUZEI live wallpaper : it changes every day automatically; combine it with Helvetica font. It looks gorgious. :cowboy:

i posted a pic the other day of my homescreen, but i just learned how to add blink feed to nova launcher and wanted to show off my updated homescreen. i can make another video of how its done but im sure there will be plenty of tutorials in the suggested videos. i used nova and uccw. the black words on the left side open folders when i click the "+" to the left.



heres the vid:

I tried adding it via Nova Launcher then adding a shortcut to an Activity - but there are 24 for BlinkFeed, and so far none of the ones I have picked have worked. Is there another easy way?

After you select "launcher" delete the other home screens, remove the dock icons, and change the app drawer icon to a transparent picture.

Did I get an update that I shouldn't have? This is what I have instead of "HTC BlinkFeed" it's under the R's...

So if I pick the one that says "Launcher" under it...it FC's.

Same here, actually. Viper ROM 1.3.1, rooted, and everything. I've got the Dark Theme installed, but I can't see that making a difference. Maybe I need to find a way to switch back to BF as default, then open Nova 'once' and try it then make Nova default? I have no idea.

Edit:
So, I tried to make BlinkFeed the default home from Nova, and it gave the same description instead of saying Blinkfeed...then it FC'd again. Maybe I should flash 1.3 full rom again and see? It seems I have completely broken BlinkFeed somehow.

Yeah, the best thing you could do is flash viper again, and make sure you don't remove sense in aroma. Pretty obvious but just saying.

Question is, can I get away with a dirty flash, or do I have to lose all my freakin data? (I'll do a TB backup in the meantime I suppose) I was thinking get the FULL 1.3 download, flash 1.3, OTA 1.3,1, then flash the Dark theme, then see what happens.
