I haven't posted anything in a while due to being busy trying to help get everything ready for a mandatory 2 week "vacation" (lay off) at work next month, but I have been playing around a little bit over the past few days, and here's what I've done.
I am currently running the latest CM7 beta from Hroark.
The clock is courtesy of One More Clock from off of the Android Market. It has a high number of customizable clocks that come with the app, and it's well worth checking out.
The ADW launcher icons are from a highly customizable color wise icon pack called Metro Station from off of the market, and the Theme Chooser theme is ChromaBasic.
The weather on the clock screen is from Minimalistic Text, and the forecast on the second screen is from Beautiful Widgets.

Nice Cowboy ! I was a Harvick fan long before I moved to Bakersfield, Ca . For those of you not familiar with NASCAR , that's Harvick's hometown .
To bad he didn't get the win today . Outta gas and still a 2nd place isn't bad at all though . Go # 29 !
Could you please post the contents of your theme ? THX
I never was an Earnhardt fan, actually a Bobby Allison, Richard Petty, and Davey Allison fan, but pulled for Kevin when he raced in the Super Trucks for his dad, and then when he went to RCR in the Busch Series. Biker, since your around Bakersfield and into racing since Irwindale down south is closed and Mesa Marin is questionable, you ought to ride up 99 to Madera just north of Fresno to the paved track, or if your feeling like a good ride, you could go up around my old "stomping grounds" of Modesto and Stockton to the Stockton 99, or even the Altamont Speedway. There's a bunch of good IMSA dirt tracks around too, such as Chowchilla and Merced.
Chroma Basic is pretty much a HDPI theme that I found worked pretty good on the Prevail. It's just an unusual red and tan theme that themes out the notification pull down bar, dialer, and a few other odds and ends. It however has some drawbacks. Being it's for HDPI devices, the dialed numbers on the dialer screen are partially blocked, and then there is the high battery drainage associated with the theme. I actually scrapped it this morning after I got home from work, and am currently working on a new phone layout.

The theme is Blue Magic for MDPI devices. from over on XDA. It themes the dialer, notification screen, and other things with use from a Metamorph zip that's available. It seems that the theme was made for the Evo, hence the small HTC logo on the dialer or call screen, but that doesn't take away from it one bit due to it barely being noticeable.
The icons are from Minimal Metal from off of the market, and the clock is from One More Clock from the market.

It almost feels like we're in an arms race as much as we're changing our phones here lately.
The theme is "Black Funk" for MDPI from over on XDA. It themes out the dialer, and the notification bar. The icons are from "Clear" by Sonny Skelton from off the market. The clock is from One more clock from the market.
I'm a huge Dr. Hunter S. Thompson fan, so I thought that I'd try and theme my phone up in a little of "Fear and Loathing" style. I just noticed that the "Fear and Loathing" script is in either Dutch or French too. LMAO!!!!!
The theme chooser theme is the paid version of Steel Blue from Team Carbon from off of the Market. The ADW icons are the paid version Tha Crystal by Kovdev, and the clock is from One More Clock Widget from the Market.

I used to like Go Launcher, but as soon as I switched to Cyanogenmod back in October, I fell in love with the "changebility" of ADW. My new home screen consists of the Sense HD icons for ADW from the market, and the clock is "Brushed Steel" from Beautiful Widgets, and the theme is Crystal for the theme changer. The lock screen is a work in progress.... I change mine up a bunch, but I might leave this one for a bit.
So, the only way to download this them is to have ADW launcher? and is there an app that can edit the lock screen like yours?

Several other Launchers have customizable themes and icons too, but the choices seem limited. I prefer ADW for the reason that there is so many icon sets and themes to pick from that the possibilities seem almost endless. I am running Hroark's version of Cyanogenmod 7 so all I have to do is go into the Cyanogen settings or flash a CM7 theme add on through Metamorph and adjust my lock screen accordingly. There are several apps that are on the Market to change your lockscreen though if you aren't running CM7, but some don't play to nicely with our phones. Go Locker used to be a good app to use if you had Go Launcher installed, but I just checked and it's now incompatible.

I agree with you 100% Cowboy. There are a lot of options with ADW, CM7 and Metamorph.
i took parts from five themes to make it, and the background is a picture i took in eastern Wyoming
I also found if i set bw to use gps for location, and force gps with tracker booster, i can make the weather locate me (w/out tracker booster it wont lock... Gps pops for like two second, and no go on location...

My little addition, too. I emailed the ADW dev earlier to ask why I can't seem to hide the page indicator at the top since I've tried every setting I can find but with no luck. Maybe a bug? If anyone has any wisdom I'd be grateful.
Alright in every Android phone's forum I've always posted my homescreens for each of my different phones so this is for Galaxy Prevail users to post in
The Samsung Galaxy Prevail is an entry level device for Boost Mobile. Unlike some of it's Galaxy S cousins, you wont find some of the higher end "Galaxy S" features and it doesn't have the familiar TouchWhiz interface seen on so m... Read More
