Default Home replacement for Moment????

This is killing me. I am looking for a good home replacement. I liked the aHome lite, but they stopped updating it and is not even available to download anymore. I do not like open home, can not find pandahome on the damn marketplace.

Can anyone recommend one?

Thanks

Why dont you like open home? it can use ahome themes has 3rd party widgets support i think its just awesome and ive tried all them out and its by far my favorite the only thing i like about ahome is the option for up to 10 home screen but i guess the 7 with open home is fine.

panda home made my phone so slow it was hard to use. i would not recommend it. sorry i can't help with a positive, but i like the open home set up with ahome skins so i haven't looked much beyond that.

I have pandahome installed but I'm a little turned off by the lack of themes... and I finally found open home... I guess I'll give it a shot... maybe do the paid version, if I like it enough...

Question: does open home lite have the widgets disabled? I guess I should shell out the the $5 for the full version... but not if the full version can't use widgets... anyone shed some light on the matter?

runs fast on mine. only force close once and some minor hangs. i just wanted it for more home screens. would be nice if it had more themes.

you can import any openhome or ahome theme into panda home. i wish it worked better because i liked the set up. it was just always hanging. glad to hear others are having better luck.

the widgets work and the open home widgets that come with it for weather and whatnot skin themselves to match the theme your using.

Using Panda with Open Home's HTC HERO theme and it works great. Doesn't seem slowed down and has been stable.
