[Windows Phone 7 General] fc000:
Personally, I'd say it's not so much that the app should follow the phones theme, but it should adhere to the metro clean design method.

Some great examples of clean app tiles that aren't confined to the phone theme would be Evernote, Shazam, TED, Flixster (Live Tile Disabled), IMDB, and IM+. One App that still looks good, but isn't too busy would be 4th & Mayor.

Accuweather has a nice live tile, but does it really have to say AccuWeather.com on the bottom? It'd look so much better without that line.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FTC:
...well, if I understand correctly, you can change the paint (colours of tiles) with Mango. Maybe it is because of my age, but I am more fond of simple, classic designs which are not outdated after a few months like colourful, flashy designs.

I never liked the homescreen my WM or Android phones..... I don't need "eye candies"....
[Windows Phone 7 General] rmcgraw:
I have my Live Tiles and plain tiles in a checkerboard type fashion, bouncing from side to side, and separated in the middle by the Pictures and Calendar long tiles.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jakelou:
The tile system only becomes an annoyance when the developer completely screws up the tile for that app. In essence, making it super ugly where even though its a good applications, I can't stand to have pinned to the homescreen.

Colours... mix and matching really makes the Metro theme shine. You can have soo much contrast between two tiles, and it still looks beautiful.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Demaar:
Gonna put my voice in with the crowed that prefers the official/system tiles to match the theme and the third party ones to have their own personality. Everything sort of bleeds together if you have all of the tiles the same colour, and you have to really pay attention to the logo/title on the tile to recognise it. Having more unique tiles lets you glance at it and go "yep that's what I want" without paying much attention, which is quicker and more convenient to me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
Personally, I don't mind the different colored tiles. I just would like to see MS do 1/2 and 3/4 tiles to go along with the normal and double sized tiles.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FTC:
....I find this thread quite interesting. It shows that you can well personalise your screen, one thing Android and iPhone user claim that this is lacking with WP7....
[Windows Phone 7 General] pikacz:
i like mine shaken, not stirred
[Windows Phone 7 General] Andy.WP7:
I like tiles that show some "personality". IMO that way it easier to find an app than if all of them would basically be the same color.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nizzon:
I want the theme-color.

I cant stand it when my homescreen looks like some chaotic add-page from a paper, thats what I think it looks like when all tiles have different colors and they dont follow the metrostyle on the graphics. Its hideous.

I even wish the Picture and Zune-tiles would flip once in a while or fade in something to show the theme color.

I can accept if the tile has 50/50 theme-color mixed with something else though.

Just make it fit the style, otherwise it wont be on my startscreen, simple as that.

Since we are talking about this I might add that the red ball of hell on the Facebook-tile looks so out of place I cant stand that either.

Make it square and and use the themecolor!!!
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] maco designs:

Haven't seen a simple post with a how to for CWM 3 on a stock BL 1.2 image

Here it is:

1. Use nvflash or another method (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1039000) to get to stock BL 1.2

2. To use stock recovery, copy update.zip and recovery folder to teh root of your internal memory (SDCARD).

2b. To update from microsd see README file within the archive.

2c. To update recovery with NVFLASH see readme with the archive.

Of course this is not my work, I am just trying to put it in a place that makes it easy for others to find.
