Took some inspiration from recent posts to set up my new phone. Cheers for the help.



Nova Launcher, Zooper and Circons Red Icon Pack.
Holy moly I never realized how useful three battery meters could be! I have to add this to my rig so I can always know how much I have left without having to move my eyes too much.

Semi-related:

Does anyone know of a battery life widget where the units are in episodes of Naruto?
Ex:
BATTERY LIFE:
2 MORE EPISODES OF NARUTO

I'd like something minimalist if possible.

Decided to try Miui on my Nexus 5. Aside from a few small issues it's surprisingly nice.

That looks very nice but I'm curious about why you like having a clock adjacent to another clock and why you choose to keep that awful menu button.

I set thing down, typically. Or I wait until I don't need to be carrying thing, because hey, what's so important on my phone that I can't wait 2 minutes?

Certainly nothing as important as having your phone be a picture frame for the second between you unlocking your phone and opening an app.

That's what the "emergency dial" button at the bottom of the lock screen is for, ding-ding.

Also my wallpaper rotates. I didn't choose my wallpaper for you, noirstronaut. Taste is subjective.

Except yours is objectively bad. If you want something that just rotates through the logos of your favorite brands, use one of these. That way you can also have a functional phone. With things on it.

I really like my new Nexus 5. I'd like a way to get the icons and clock to line up with the wallpaper better, but I don't want to stop using Action Launcher. Any suggestions? Also, a numeric percentage for the battery icon would be nice.



What does the pokeball do?

Nova launcher and Voxel icons. My attempt at using a :black101: wallpaper. I think the colorful icons do very well against the black and white background. The name stretches across all screens, so it works like a scroll indicator.

It would be neat if the icons all used the same light source for shadows.

That is why I use Minimal UI's icon pack - making a flat square icon is something I can do myself.

Boy I'd love to have to do work any time I downloaded a new app.

Haven't used it, but with that amount of problems it sounds like it's not even worth trying to fix.

I took inspiration from Stoat and made something similar for my Nexus 7, put it together with Nova Launcher + the Voxel pack in about 15 minutes.


They should really make the icons have the same light source.
