HTC HD2 3D UI (Full) Tutorial

Key Takeaways

I'm not changing my do you guys wanted a tutorial on how to do the 3dui on the HC HD2 um so this is it but uh sorry it's so long I have to compress pretty much everything I knew into like 10 minutes so that's first thing you'll noticed is the lock screen uh it's actually an app called Ripple lock it's pretty cool down from at market for free I'm pretty sure well basically this project started out as me just wanting to kind of change my phone into more of a tablet like feel cuz couldn't wait for the Nvidia c tablet to come out so I thought I might just try doing something cool like that first thing you want to try and do is um download saen mod 7 nightly ROM uh I think it's version 3.02 uh the reason for that is because of this it's the notification bar at the bottom so apparently it doesn't work with newer versions so it's quite like that um and as you can see I've got some swipe command swiped down to remove it swipe up to get to the normal app drawer okay if you go into settings okay the launcher I'm using is AWD ex so go into settings and this is the setup I have to kind of make everything work first you're going to have to change the icon size um so select new icons and for new icon settings I have the text size as 10 icon size is 53 now that's a fair bit smaller than the usual and um just cuz I think it looks nicer really yeah you can play around with that if you want uh main dock I decided to hide it so just expand the desktop really also looks horrible pretty much the style horizontal fling going into General behavior um animations this is where the business happens really so screen transition effect was Effect one the original uh scrolling speed 677 desktop bounce and this is important if you have it too high it just looks silly so 28 is what I have it on but because the dock is hidden at the side to have this to actually open up the app drawer so that's there'll be no way of doing that if you had that and this as I mentioned earlier was just to hide the status part that just pretty much gives you that secondary option secondary motion you can see there but to get the actual main flipping what you need to do is download Multi picture Live Wallpaper now I just go to the settings here see what I've done change the saturation of it on screen three sorry I have the background Fade to White I'll show you that in a bit um a transistent type you can i' chosen 3D rotation but you can actually do quite a few things and random I tried that it looks pretty cool but it can get it pretty hectic so not try that right now um so I got a couple of Reflections going on I'll show you that in a bit um yep double tap when you change the picture picture interval I said 30 seconds I I think that's about it so show you what I meant by the white so you can see it's kind of gray and you flip more screens and it goes to Black go back this way and does the same kind of thing there okay so I changed my mind this is what happens when you put it on random transitions so no it's this is kind of cool have to get real whatever you want do so yeah cool thing is um that home still works but it actually just stays on a picture you have pretty much if you double tap changes your picture changes all of them except I've made this one stay the same you can do that in the options so that's always the same yes you see when you double tap one changes all so go back double tap it's changed and that will be changed it's quite interesting just having variety every time you look at your phone it's always different which is it's really great works fluidly most of the time but as you saw there a bit of stutter but that's very very rare so that's why I recommend this ROM as well it's fast it's a lot faster than some of the stocks you find are coming out second thing you want to going to do is download honey bread theme for AWD launcher so go settings themes and preferences you can see it's honey bread download that install it and that gives you the stuff down the bottom if you can see it it's blurry and kind of if you get an option say um or like this Google is a bit different most of the notifications that come up and pop up in the screen they'll be a bit different as well which is pretty cool um uh this music application is called three that's it um it's quite nice pretty good and uh another thing to stop my screen from randomly rotating around I've downloaded um this quick app called Orient ation control orientation yeah orientation control what that does pretty much is just stop your screen from flipping into portrait randomly or when you auto rotate you can obviously disable or put it on auto rotate if you want but um I just found that really helped a lot of things C the lock screen okay so here I've got an app called semic clock that's this um this is a circular battery which you can't really see there um that's tasks um and this is weather uh it is called Beautiful Widgets I'm pretty sure and um just the weather one can't remember I'll put it in the description um what else I've got a calendar app called um jte as you saw on the top I'll put that in the description all these apps will be in the description by the way so um it's quite nice it's actually a really nice calendar so just replacing the stock one really can do most things with that as for the widgets as you can see they're a bit different so text message is a bit different calendar you can see there YouTube whatever um so what I did for that so if I just go and edit it I've got different theme packs for AWD launcher icon packs downloaded Android Phone 7 and AWG Mac OS theme and those are both free I believe so that's what kind of gives that kind of feel in my computer and I've made a few system folders and everything made them everything's a lot smaller this is colorized widgets Facebook um there's a few of them and I've just made it um transparent I'm pretty sure so if you click on my system it's got most of my settings and stuff I've downloaded something called toggle settings which is quite good it's got like know different profiles and stuff and so if you want to turn on 3G just a quick place to get to it Wi-Fi airplane mode all that kind of things this is my video it's extremely good it plays pretty much anything you want it to so this is what I used in the video um so even if it gets to something so you see everything's got previews but if it gets to something where it doesn't cuz the format is unrecognized you play it and you'll be like oh no sorry it can't be played but then you go here and soft decoding and that actually will play it for you and that's not the actual audio that's actually music that's come up I'm not sure why but yeah um you can resize it like so um we can increase the volume I mean brightness increase It Whatever volume turn that down um good chip clip to choose I guess um yeah I can skip across whatever yeah this player is called mobo player just in case you're wondering just quickly show you the text messaging out as you can see customized it's called Chomp SMS keyboard's different um it's actually a keyboard from XDA pretty sure it's called um Droid X keyboard it actually screwed up it's Mally nothing like this but um this is how it turned out and um I don't know and just B than the stock messaging up little customize that background text whatever you want really so it's pretty cool so yeah that's basically it now um i' say if someone could make this into a ROM or if I could make this into a ROM we' be pretty pretty happy like built everything in the apps and everything will'll be pretty much the best there'll be no more of that searching around for the best HTC HD2 one would just be this cuz really played around with a lot a lot of SD cards a lot of RAM sorry your RAM ROMs and ROM ROMs and really it's just this has been the best the smoothest fastest more could you wish for anyway hope you enjoyed the video and uh yeah don't forget to rate comment and subscribe all right cheers and catch you later here's an iPod Touch 4G let's have a look how customizable this is it's pretty good hey
