A lot of people have been asking me how I made my setup, so I'm going to make a simple guide as to how to make it. It's easier than it looks, specially now that I'm helping you!

This concept was not originally mine, and I don't take credit for it. But I made it my way and I had permission to borrow his concept of control layout :)

This is how it turned out //

NOW Let's Start!

Apps you need //

Minimalistic Text

Palmary Weather Premium or Something similar

I was using Nova Launcher/AOKP B25/Black Nexus by Nitro

No Search Bar - 6x5 Grid

*Note that all of the minimalistic text is bottom aligned vertically and as well as all of them have a static “1spacebar” before the actual time/date/etc.

ie. time has [1space][hour][:][minutes][am/pm]

SCREEN 1

Minimalistic WIDGET SIZE = 3 × 2 – time – 122 dip size // PM/AM – 40 dip size

Minimalistic WIDGET SIZE = 2 x 1 – date – 40 dip size

Put the date on the 2ND ROW of the screen from the top and leave the top part of the screen blank

PALMARY WIDGET - 4 X 2 - Then resize to 5 x 3 fill the middle part

Minimalistic WIDGET SIZE = 2 × 1 – battery – 75 dip size

Bottom part of the screen

3 blank icons to place on the right side

ie phone app / messaging app / folder

SCREEN 2

Minimalistic WIDGET SIZE = 3 × 1 – memory – 55 dip size

To the right side, 2nd row again, leave top part of screen blank.

SWITCHPRO WIDGET - SIZE 4 - then resize to 3 x 1 to fit the wallpaper design

Picture Gallery widget - 5 x 3 - resize to fit the wallpaper design

Minimalistic WIDGET SIZE = 2 × 1 – battery temp is 72 dip size

Bottom left part of the screen

AGAIN

3 blank icons to place on the right side

ie phone app / messaging app / folder

Download the SETUP.zip I have attached and copy the Minimalisticpreference and fonts folder in your sdcard.

The images, distribute where you keep your wallpaper/graphics as well as the softkeys folder if you want them.

*For the softkeys, you will have to use ninjamorph and do it manually because I have no clue how to make a zipthemer or metamorph file.

Apply the wallpaper first and make sure you have the 6x5 grid already applied and have 2 screens instead of 5.

Start applying the widgets (LOOK AT THE SIZES ABOVE) and instead of laying them out manually just restore the preferences I made.

Now for the "Navigation" part of the wallpaper, you can replace that with whatever app you want. I have included a link to the .psd so you can update it.

*Note that I didn't clean up the PSD so you will have to figure it out yourself

IF and WHEN you are done with the navigation part, use the blank.png I included as the new icon for each app you have to make it transparent.

I hope by this time you already have it setup.

ONCE you have this setup, you will have an understanding as to how I layed it out and NOW you can START CUSTOMIZING YOUR OWN :)

Good Luck!

Please post screenshots of yours here so I can see the results :)

I know how to make ZipThemer files if you need them. This is wonderful
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jds0912:
I got an error message when trying to load the minimalistic text preferences. Any idea why? I copied them from your zip, to my sd card where the preferences for MT are, but got an error when trying to load them. No idea
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bleachedgin:
maybe make a backup of your saved preferences and then delete the folder of the pref again and reinstall minimalistic text, then just copy the files inside my folder to your new pref folder...

I haven't heard of this type of issue, maybe a corrupted transfer to your sdcard?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aardvark502:
Same problem has that guy
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stank0:
Looks cool.

I wanted to try it but it would be nice if you'd include a little more detailed instructions as how to set this thing up for us - lazy n00bs. ;)

I mean if I put the wallpaper images on the SD and then try to apply the wallpaper thru Gallery, it wants me to crop the image, which will end up over or undercropped so it won't fit the screen precisely.

Also I couldn't figure out how to restore the minimalistic preferences you've made.

So I gave up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aardvark502:
Maybe make a backup of your nova home screen and upload it? I don't know of that'd work though
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OSully:
Would you mind posting the PSD for the lockscreen? :)

Also - what are you using for the quick controls?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bleachedgin:
Alright, I added my nova launcher backup, hopefully that works...Also inside the folders, I included different color schemes for the wallpaper and Lockscreen...

ie. orange, red, yellow, etc.

For some reason, xda wouldn't accept the zip even though it's less than 11 mb. anyways, here are the files...Hopefully it works this time...

extra.zip

lockscreen.psd

Make sure that you are using AOKP rom and have 2 screens using nova launcher FIRST. Then maybe once you understand the layout, you can customize it.

IF for some reason the wallpaper isn't properly working just apply it and reboot, nova launcher is weird that way.

I UPDATED THE GUIDE!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jds0912:
My Alien (g2x)

Thanks for your help. I couldnt get your preferences to work, so I just went ahead and did the configuration. Doesnt look as good as yours, but not bad considering I'm using a G2X running CM7. LMK what you think.

Lockscreen- CM7 w/ gestures and music controls (no widget)

Homescreen- Beautiful weather, Minimalistic text, launcher pro, CM7 "crystal" theme, Multipicture live wallpapers (had to split your wallpaper into two screens to fit my smaller device properly)

Second Screen- Still not sure what to do here, I dont really need a power widget bc it is in my drop-down menu, maybe I'll add the temp and space, but for now I gotta get back to (real)work!

Thanks a lot for the wallpapers and ideas! I found this thread via Mycolorscreen btw
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bleachedgin:
It looks good already, I like your icons :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aardvark502:
Cool! I set it up manually but is there a way to change the minimalistic text to that tall kind without making it the entire system font? That's the only way I found out how to do it. Thanks.

EDIT: Never mind, got it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OSully:
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I love my new home screens.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bleachedgin:
oh wow that looks very nice! congratz! :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsminnis:
Well the alignment is not perfect, I believe due to my nav bar bieng sized smaller (36dpi) but here is what I have so far.

Thanx for the setup.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsminnis:
Could I get your wallpaper in red, I really love the calendar setup.

Also, which launcher icons are you using, it all looks good together.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dslider85:
Can you repost the preferences files? keeps giving an error on the restore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OSully:
I was getting an error too. I'll post my files and wallpaper when I get home.

The icons in the doc are tha icon MW3 white. Love them. Download the tha icon ultimate app in the market if you want to purchase them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsminnis:
Thank you, also which calendar widget do you use?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] inselstaat:
Looks really great! I'll try it today ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OSully:
bleachedgin, do you think you could edit the lockscreen for me so that the clock area will fit the new line for the weather?

I'm trying to do it myself but it has not been easy :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flowtime:
What icons are you using and what is that calendar widget? If you don't mind.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KingDavid63:
dude this is crazy wonderful...wish i had time to tackle this..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bethanensinger:
I am working on my own version and also if anyone is looking to get more lockscreens try using multipicture live wallpaper it allows you to set different wallpapers for different screens, so you could use this on 5 different screens if you wanted to
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OSully:
Icons are tha icon MW3 white. Calendar is android pro Widgets with ics theme.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flowtime:
Awesome screens thanks for the .pds (You weren't kidding on it not be cleaned up ;))

Here's what i got
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mohitrocks:
Thanks so much for the tutorial, gonna try this ASAP :)

Amazing setup :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flipvision3:
Nice!! Any way flowtime or Osully would be willing to pass on your .psd?? I also prefer the calendar use over the photos.

Thanks bleachedgin for the great ideas too. I love your work on myColorscreen:D

Also, might be a obvious question. But how are you guys applying the wallpaper to the phone? Any particular app? Im running AOKP toro b26, the default wallpaper makes me crop.

cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OSully:
Flip I will send my psd for you.

Its a little edited from the original though.

Flow time.. nice work. Would you mind sharing yours as well?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flowtime:
Again all credits go to Bleachedgin for this. All my tweaks couldn't have been done with out him.

Here is the Psd. You'll have to play around with the layers a lot to figure out what's going on. I'm using the same pack as osully mw3 icon pack from http://www.thaicon.thasyndicate.com/ (great choice osully)

I had to crop each page and I'm using multi picture wallpaper.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OSully:
Thank you sir
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] convolution:
YEA VANCOUVER BC!

Which part you from bro?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flowtime:
Here is a slightly more cleaned up version the psd.

Osully what font did you use for the galaxy nexus?

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11540025/blue semi clean.psd
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlackMamba08:
Thanks.

What calendar widget are you using?

I like Osully's set up with the calendar, but I need a calendar that can display events. Which one are you using?

Also would u be able to post the cropped images for each homescreen? I think I am gonna use multi picture live wallpaper as well.

Thanks guys.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chucklehead:
How do you get the palmary background to be transparent??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bleachedgin:
When you pick a widget it's going to ask you about the background transparency
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bleachedgin:
I'm glad to see everybody is enjoying this setup :) and thanks for sharing your version as well :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlackMamba08:
Couple questions to the OP.

1.) What icon set are you using? I want to add/exchange apps from the folder but I dont know what the icon pack is called. Can you provide a link please?

2.) Also I'm loving the set up but the wallpaper is way too dark. Would anybody be able to brighten it up a bit for me?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OSully:
Dude this setup is a monster. You're a hero. Thanks again.

The galaxy nexus is the actual logo. I just googled a PNG of it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hdXShade:
This is pretty tight, not fond of the images per say but the concept of it as well and a nice tutorial to go along with this as well thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chucklehead:
I think it was asked earlier but didn't get a response...

Where are the images for the icons in the folder? The simple white icons?

---------- Post added at 12:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:10 AM ----------

Here's what I got so far.

Love the idea of this. Great concept and thank you for allowing us to use and edit it too!!

Looking to get something else in the battery temp spot plus try and get the text in the CM9 music player changed to red.

Haven't fiddled with the softkeys yet either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bleachedgin:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bleachedgin:
Looking nice :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlackMamba08:
Loving this setup, but I have my softkeys hidden and this setup does not allow for the softkeys to be hidden.

I've tried hours and hours of (noob) editing and it does not work. It just ends up killing the whole look. I also find the wallpaper to be too dark, like the cyan doesnt pop like it does on everybodys screenshots. It really looks nice and vibrant, but on the phone it looks pretty dull. Even with brightness at 100 the only thing that gets bright is the white text.

If someone could make a version tailored towards a no softkey setup + brighten up the wallpaper. I'd definitely keep this theme.
[HTC EVO 3D] vboyz103:
It pains me to say but I'm leaving my E3D behind and going with iPhone 4S. Don't blame me just yet!

I have always been a fan of Droid and its power to customization. What happened was that I got the iPhone 4S for the wife and she gave it to me stating she don't want to learn about iOS since she's already used to Droid. Didn't want to go thru the hassle of returning, I accepted the offer.

I do still have a couple of droid phones to play around with though, so I'm not completely gone gone.

I already missed my droid after just a few days of iPhone. :(
[HTC EVO 3D] oohaylima:
How much you want for it?
[HTC EVO 3D] Bamba1260:
Sell the iPhone for some good monies :p
[HTC EVO 3D] evolving:
the hassle isnt that bad if ur still in the return timeline....it would be more of a pain and hassle to me to know i took an iphone over the the masterminds here at xda that i thank everyday for making my evo what it is.but hey thats my opinion.
[HTC EVO 3D] benjimatt:
yeah im now going to be using a g2x as my primary phone. :-( but ill still have my 3d as a voip phone at home. bye sprint hi tmobile 30 dollar prepaid plan
[HTC EVO 3D] JohnM:
I know, I'll get a lot of hate for saying this, but the iPhone 4S is a really good phone. Perfect shape, size, screen, camera, everything a man could wish for in a smartphone. But the dealbreaker for me is iOS. iOS just looks like an app drawer to me, and even after "jailbreaking" an iOS device there is still not much you can do.

TL;DR I would rather have an iPhone than an Evo 3D if it wasn't plagued by iOS.
[HTC EVO 3D] p3tr0s:
i was thinking about the same plan but i couldn't deal with a 100 minute limitation unless you know something i dont?
[HTC EVO 3D] Riff76:
Real "men" don't want a small phone. What are you talking about?

[HTC EVO 3D] Scougar:
You can EASILY sell the 4S for decent money and replace it with a decent sim unlocked Android phone if that's what you want.

BTW.. might be worthwhile selling it considering the phones awesome phones that are coming out of MWC soon :-D

EDIT: Btw... I had a GF (Who is now my wife), who said she liked stuff that was pretty nerdy, just so she could share interests, as she liked me. She later admited that she had no real interest, just did it so I would like her lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] kthejoker20:
I left the evo 3d for the epic 4 galaxy II.

Best move I ever made.

There just isn't any good development on this phone.

Plus we now have ICS.

Later Biatches.
[HTC EVO 3D] benjimatt:
lol maybe maybe maybe.

right now im using groove ip for wifi calling and calling over data. and yes this includes receiving calls.

im in-between using an external SIP client and groove ip im basically just testing to see which one is better. calls come in like 2 rings faster though!!! its so nice.

so here is the deal. since the plan comes with 5gb of data I simply use all of my calling through either tmobiles 4g or whatever wifi connection I am at.

and worse case scenario if I am in a really bad data area or a place with no data at all I still have the 100 minutes, and i think its 10 cents a minute if you end up going over. so if you really dont trust having 100 minutes for 30 a month. you can have 200 for 40 a month or 300 min for 50 a month. (and thats only if you go over)

this really all depends on how the data connection is in your area.
[HTC EVO 3D] vboyz103:
hahah some funny posts on here. I like android a lot but open-minded about iOS too, specially my job as an information security professional, I need to experience different platforms and it's only beneficial to me. All in all, one of you is right, I'm already back here. lol

All the bashing and joking are also part of why I missed this community. :)

BTW, checkout my blog site and read up some security blogs I have.

I switched from the Epic 4g to the the iPhone 4 and had it for about 2 weeks. Traded that for the Evo 3D and I must say I am loving it. Best phone I have had by far. HTC sense works for me, and I like HTC hardware in general. I think Samsung Touchwiz tries too hard to look like iOS.
[HTC EVO 3D] jyan_osu:
I put people like this on here in my ignore list.

Best move I ever made.

There's usually never good posts from people like this.

Plus now I don't have to see their posts.

Later. :)

Anyways, i'd like an LTE 4 core phone for my next one after 3D. Hope to see some good stuff at MWC for Sprint
[HTC EVO 3D] edufur:
When a person is tethering, they are merely using the phone as a modem at that point... so plugging it in would make the most sense. Battery drain is moot at that point. I have tethered 3G and 4G. 3G is a joke. I get at least 3Mbit on 4G and often 4.5Mbit. Plus, with WiFi tether, you are not metered and NOT capped.

As an additional point of note, Apple is trying to make it a criminal offense to tether without a separate subscription. That isn't all that surprising considering how many people they sue.

At most you will only get hit with a terms violation with android... but the chances of getting noticed are not high unless you are stupid.
[HTC EVO 3D] thizzlemania91:
What lol its not apple that's gonna be suing you its the service provider lol and I don't need a seperate subscription I jailbroke my iPhone for the same reason I rooted my 3d. To have some fun with my phone. And to not have to conversate with my gf and her friends lol

kind of mix and match and trial and error ;)

I came from X10 and there's a guide on mixing the roms (it's buried deep in XDA but you can still find it at Modaco I think)

It's important to have a well working rom (in this case CM7) to base on

Need to get it boot up and read the logcat and change from there

is it safe to format sd since this is based on the first release of the cm7 alpha 8 i believe it was they are now using 12
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] dodgepot:
OP says it's based off 12.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] nba1341:
is that an app that creates the home/menu keys on the right side like that or is that how miui is?
