>>51585582
Where do I get started if want to customize my home screen?
>>51587747
I might sound retarded, but why does all of your homescreens look like Lockscreen? I mean, my homescreen looks like this
Why do I always post in these threads right before I fall asleep
>>51587839
>using a lock screen
why?
no seriously, besides quickly checking the time (which you can still do without one) what do you use your lock screen for?
>>51587866
locking, m8
>>51587866
well, to lock my phone, but aesthetically talking for nothing.
My homescreen looks like niggshit, what app should i take? cuz im using Google launcher rn
>>51587898
>>51587884
without root locking your phone is next to pointless, you can just restart it, then reset via usb
Always wanted to ask guys, how are you doing this ?
Do you have ROM's installed or just launcher ? I can't make my G3 look so good.
>>51587930
>>51587805
hey, I'm using nova and klwp on my g3.
no root no Photoshop no roms
>>51585582
weather widget name?
>>51587821
Not here. Nobody's gonna help you out. I suggest you go to /wg/ and find the homescreen thread there.(big trump)
OP's links nicely explain how to start
In the market for a new wallpaper. I like my current layout, so I don't want to change that.
>>51587898 >>51587930
1) search nova launcher + whicons in the play store. mess around with any other icon packs that tickle your fancy along the way, but whicons just consistently works with a whole buncha shit (Zwart is the same, but in black)
2) there's two ways to get more interactive stuff, widgets are the easiest (zooper is getting up there in age, but it Jus Werks), but you can also try a live wallpaper, which can get incredibly deep if you want it to
These instructions are intentionally vague, but that's because most android ricing guides get outdated real quickly, and considering this is all about your customization, it's up to you to find out your comfort zone
>>51587821
Kustom live wallpaper, icon packs, widgets etc. There are lots of guides on ricing if you dig around
>>51587825
alright, thanks alot dudr>>51587988
Alright im check that out, thanks a lot man! Im new to 4chan and had only been on /b/ for a week, weird to see normal people out there lel
>>51587988
ACTUALLY WAIT ALSO:
In nova launcher's settings, go to look + feel, scroll down, turn off your notif bar.
Beware of the two clocks, for it eats at souls
>>51587988
Thank you a lot.
>>51588016
i too need an app to know when im thirsty
>>51588036
It's actually because I am mot thirsty, so I can drink like just 300ml a day, not even.
Now that I am forcing myself to drink 2L (with the app), I feel way better.
>>51587930
Get nova launcher, icon packs (in using line) and klwp
>>51588054
You need nova launcher to run klwp ?
>>51588051
i have to drink 1952ml a day accordingly to it
i do have the same struggle
>>51588063
You don't need it, but nova launcher let's you get rid of notification bar and make navbar transparent etc. It pretty much allows more customization
>>51588067
I will remove the app in some weeks, but I really feel overall better now. Less stress mostly.
>>51587747
How do I make my phone look like this? Plz send halp.
Rate
rank these 3 Launchers pls: Google, Apex & Nova
>>51588096
I'm using nova launcher to make navbar transparent and get rid of notification bar, klwp for everything on the background (time, song, boxes etc.) and line icon pack for the icons.
If you're having trouble with klwp look up tutorials, that's what I did.
Quick reminder that the ppl who made KLWP have the same interface for plain old widgets now:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.kustom.widget&hl=en
I never use the fancier stuff in KLWP and I have a senseless loathing for zooper so this works out great for me
>>51588109

Know that feel, I really like this. I think you could arrange your icons better though or add a few more

Great looking icons, what are they? And I would just shrink the clock by 5 px

Disable the app labels. Also for folders, select an icon for them to keep it more consistent.
>>51593082
Make the gap between your bottom row of icons and the bottom of the screen larger.
>>51593805
Pretty damn nice.

You're probably going for a very minimal look, so I'd suggest not.

Zooper pro is outdated as fuck. It's design is terrible. We either need an updated Zooper or a better alternative.

If you have gravity box you can change the color of your navbar to match the pape with a hexcode. You could give it a shot

Looks really nice and flashy, but I don't really like the animation of how text appears/disappears.
Also not a huge fan of having random animated characters on my phone.

Would be better without that red weather icon. It doesn't really match anything else.
>>51596162

Try getting rid of all the translucent black parts and move the clock widget down a little bit. Maybe hiding the status bar also.
>>51596166

Music player looks a bit strange with the text right on top of the album cover, but it still looks nice. Try changing the icons to red to match the rest of your aesthetics.

You've got that normie look down pretty well.
>>51596253
literal perfection. Get rid of the status bar, nav bar, and dock for more space. Then use nova launcher and make the icon size down to 50% and fill up the screen with clover.

It might be just me, but it looks too curvy compared to the many corners of the boxes you have going on.
>>51597454
Thanks, I'll look around for a sharper font then. Is this wp any better?
>>51597506
Yes, already became 8/10. I actually have that wallpaper on my PC rotation.

You'd be surprised how much that happens.
Are there any good apps that let you rice your lock screen?

If you have Xposed and on Lollipop/Marshmallow try Lock screen widgets [LP].
Been using this for months.
Hmph.

can I have that background/wp please?

Ayy lmao.
>>51587927
True, android is somewhat lackluster in security, of you can always just reset it through the bootloader if unlocked bootloader.
>>51599530
Better, but it could use some more work. You've got too much going on there. You should either stick with the horizontal row across the bottom, or the vertical row on the left side, otherwise the screen looks too crowded.
Get rid of the page indicator at the bottom, and find a different clock widget. Try finding a symmetrical one with less information and matching colors to the rest of your theme.

>>51600758
As far as I know, only through an xposed module like Wanam.
>>51600077
This is like, as far as I'd expect a real basic bitch user to take it.
It looks clean, but it looks very stock. Status bar, two clocks, the clock widget is probably a prebuilt, icons have names on desktop, still have a dock, basically it's a nicely organized but completely stock homescreen (except because of icon layout/pack I know you're using Nova or something)
It's a great start anon.

If you're on the S6 or better, I think you're able to install custom themes in TouchWiz.

Probably, since you don't have to worry about animations and such. But once you get used to Zooper you'll find KLWP a piece of cake to master.

>>51601693
Interesting, I'll give it a shot then.
>>51601722
My setup doesn't have any animations and only has one screen anyway, so for all intents and purposes I find it easier to use kwgt instead of klwp. If Zooper is even easier than kwgt then I'll definitely give it a try.

You could use WidgetLocker, although it's a paid app and has been abandoned by the dev for a couple of years.
Rooting itself isn't even that hard, just unlock bootloader if you need to, install TWRP/CWM recovery from fastboot and flash SuperSU.

Solid 8/10 desu senpai
It looks really nice, but there's a few improvements that can be made. Get rid of the outline around the music widget, and find a different place for the battery widget. Everything on your screen is symmetrical so your battery widget placement should be as well.
Other than that it looks really nice. Maybe try getting rid of some of the apps at the bottom since that's kind of a lot, but it would look fine without any changes there.
>>51602977
7/10 as it is.
Lose the folder, am/pm indicator, and page indicator and that should bump you up to ~8.5/10.
