7/10, clock is too bright against background and icons look out of place to me. Also you should install that update.

3/10, way too busy and cluttered looking and your icons aren't centered.

7/10 - Doesn't make that much use of the screen realestate.
>>43140556
It looks like 90% of the homescreens on here, but still nice. If you got rid of the taskbar it would be 8/10

Pretty ugly, but the theme is extremely consistent so it comes down to personal taste. 9/10

8/10 icons are a little bright against the background, but it looks nice.
>>43148881

icon pack?
btw simple is the best
>>43147130 here
>>43140556
7/10, move everything at the bottom down a bit more, or just the icons.
>>43140673
6/10, clear notifications for screenshots, get rid of shadows, use stock statusbar icons
>>43140815
2.5/10 start over
>>43140932
5/10, keep the placement and wallpaper but get better icons and widgets, or just an artsier font
>>43142251
7/10, not the biggest fan of the icons but they're not bad. Get rid of the reflections on the dock if you can
>>43142293
>Nova
>Icon pack
>shitty widgets that can be made yourself
There you go, 95% of the responses
>>43142513
9/10, try to find a really excellent wallpaper. That widget is incredible. What font do you use?
>>43142539
6/10, make your navbar transparent, shrink your calendar and feed widgets a bit to giver them more space at the edges, try a different/less bold font for your clock
>>43142555
3.5/10, get rid of icon labels, use a more colorful wallpaper or less colorful icons, use a less boring clock or just get rid of the shadows around the edges, get rid of your statusbar clock, get rid of the numbers in your battery indicator and get rid of the 3g icon
>>43142791
8/10, nothing to change.
>>43143883
6.5/10, even though Lucid Rounds is my favorite icon set I don't think they match here. Try a plain white set. Move your widget up some, make your icon grid less short and wide, and get rid of shadows.
>>43146616
4.5/10, get a complete icon set and a less boring wallpaper, make your navbar transparent and use the stock icons
>>43143883
Wow...
How?what? How did you make this?
>>43146631
7/10, nothing to change. Maybe your wallpaper could be more interesting

>>43147538
show all of your pages and get a better wallpaper
Also, do something
>>43148799
3/10, get rid of shadows, get a less busy wallpaper so you can actually see your stuff and get a less boring clock. Put your clock at the top
>>43148881
5.5/10, make everything at the bottom bigger, see if you can make the icons line up with the navbar icons, get rid of shadows, clear notifications for screenshots and use the stock statusbar icons. Try a less boring clock
>>43148926
5/10, get rid of shadows, put icons in a centered grid and get a better icon set that's complete and matches, make your statusbar a different color and use the stock battery indicator, clear notifications for screenshots
>>43148954
4/10, use a less minimal icon set that's complete and put them in a grid, get rid of shadows and center clock, clear notifications for screenshots
>>43149055
6/10, use a less boring font for your clock, get rid of shadows, and use a more interesting wallpaper.
>>43147130

>5.5/10, make everything at the bottom bigger, see if you can >make the icons line up with the navbar icons, get rid of >shadows, clear notifications for screenshots and use the stock >statusbar icons. Try a less boring clock
I don't like everything at the bottom any bigger. I adjusted it pixel by pixel until it "felt" perfect for how i use my phone. I would like to get the dock and navbar icons to line up though, that's something I'm messing with a lot in my free time. Not sure what shadows and notifications you're referring to, as i see neither. The status bar flat icons from Flux are one of my primary attractions to the theme as well as the dialer and keyboard theming so I'll probably leave those too.
Overall though, i appreciate that you know how to give constructive criticism rather than being a cunt.

Nova slide effect
They are probably part of the widget
>>43142283
I used the Android L preview for a couple weeks and I wasn't impressed with the UI. The status bar clock font is worse than in KitKat and I don't like the navigation buttons. I'm not in love with the notification shade either. Really once the novelty of new Android wears off, it feels like an amateur iOS theme. I hope they make some huge changes before the final release.

How did you do it? Widgets? Icon packs?
I'm so fucking sick of this phone. My plan was to wait until September and try to stick it out for either the Galaxy F/Note 4 or the Xperia Z3. But I hate this phone more every goddamn minute I'm stuck with is.
I'm half contemplating just picking up an LG G3 right now instead. I just worry that the 801 can't handle everything at 1440p, and the overheating worries me.

I have an LG G3 right now and surprisingly it handles everything well, I will admit that it does get a bit hot when running demanding programs, but nothing to worry about. Its mostly shills telling you to not buy 1440p, its all personal preference as I love it.

Why do you fags use themes? They feel so unnatural. They're pretty to see a screenshot of but in reality they're not very efficient.
>>43163115
it's the shitty stock launcher, the second I switched to nova it was smooth. Plus all the bloatware can contribute too, but if you plan on rooting you should be fine, if you don't just worry about the launcher, either fix works.
Nothing new here. Shinobu is still being cute.
>>43163358
If your theme is hampering your efficiency, you're doing something wrong.

>>43161333
Shitty iPhone 4S. You can understand why I'm eager to leave.
>>43161389
I've read a lot of reviews and XDA posts where people complain about the overall lag and frame rate drops in games, not to mention the overheating and screen over sharpening effect on text. Of course, almost all of that is fixable with root via xposed mods or kernel tweaking, but the point is that you shouldn't HAVE to start messing with root to make a phone useable.
Of course, coming from an iPhone that required jailbreaking and a whole slew of mods to even come close to the functionality of Android (with even less stability) means that I'm not one to talk. And the G3 is still my favorite phone out right now.
But that Z3 looks niiiiiiiiice.
>>43165194
Well I came from the 4s to the g3, see>>43156974
and I gotta say the differences between the two devices are overwhelming. I sort of miss the premium feel of an iPhone. But the performance of the g3 is really amazing. Once you put nova launcher on it really flies.
I also had verizon so my choice in phones was pretty limited. No xperia, nexus, 1+1, oppo, etc.

>How to you get those side bar drawers?

Maybe there's an overlap option in Nova or something that I enabled

>>43179455
If your phone is red why didn't you get the red theme from the same dev (that's the one I'm basing my custom theme on or will end buying)?
>>43180894
I actually noticed a few minutes ago that theme existed in several colors and just downloaded the red one.
>>43180923
Oh, nice then. I'm sure it looks a lot sexier now.
>>43140556
just got it yesterday so I haven't done too much.
>>43175294
Way too cluttered. Get a wallpaper and remove the top Google search bar.
Good music taste though.
>>43175453
Not a fan of Windows Phone, but at least you put effort into ricing it. I would change the background of the tiles to something different.
>>43176464
Pretty neat, but I would decrease the saturation of the red color.
>>43176900
Not a fan of the icons. Other then that there is not much there. Update to Android 4.4 so the statusbar icons will look better or use a custom rom that lets you change the color.
>>43177524
Appdrawer icon doesn't fit the rest since it doesn't have a long drop shadow like the rest. Get a better font for the widgets. Not much there.
>>43178473
>>43178487
I would stick to one icon pack for consistency sake.

I'm running a setup pretty much identical to the guy you're replying to, except without clover on the homescreen, so pure stock.
I'm running it mainly because it almost doubles my battery life, and eliminates wakelocks even with fb, whatsapp, steam, google now and location enabled.
If it really bothers you that much just wait a couple of months, on release you'd have a gorillion modders just itching to tinker with it and throw every feature known to man on it, including the cm themer, which will fix your so called problem.
>>43181421
I see.
Maybe it would be better if you changed it with something like estimated time left on the battery. It would certainly be more useful.
>>43147130

>>43151660
You should style that text app so it has an icon which matches with the others
most ROMs allow this
>>43176900
would look a little better with the icons shifted .5 to the right
