QUOTE(polarzbearz @ Mar 24 2013, 12:13 AM) Thanks  As for me hiding status bar is kinda fine as I can swipe-down (or two-fingers swipe-down) from anywhere in the home-screen to access the information there. However as for the navigation bar, I've tried Pie Control and seriously I don't think I could get used to it, based on my style so for now I'll just stick with the default navigation bar. After all I don't really want to stagger the usability just for the sake of beautifying the device  Exactly the way I felt. Pie is just not for me. Sometimes hiding status bar is too bothering me. Haha

QUOTE(polarzbearz @ Mar 23 2013, 11:59 PM) Customisation completed. Overall nothing much changed except the wallpaper, icon pack & colour used in the widget  Rearranged the shortcuts to allow me to access frequently used ones much more easily when using the phone single-handed (right-hand). Previously it was really kind of darn-hard to reach the "Call" or "Message" button  » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « IU is nicely positioned  Nice one.

QUOTE(man_hakim87 @ Mar 23 2013, 10:16 PM) Well issit possible to develop the nexus 5? From the pic its like no bazel at all.  Possible but the phone can take NO DAMAGE from the side else 100% the screen will crack. That's the problem of bazeless. Unless they use flexible display else it should be very fragile. Why want bazeless?? See how well lumia 920 perform with that huge bazel QUOTE(zennasyndroxx @ Mar 24 2013, 01:58 AM) You can try carbon. Non root also can But need use with PC. No pc no talk

So I have a page of homescreen with only a clock and nothing else. Swipe left/right for widgets haha

Ionic GuardianUsually it's hard to find oversea cases locally in retail stores unless they're really famous / high demand. However the price will usually be jacked up so might as well as directly order from U.S. and save some $.

So far I change my wallpaper once every month-or-so, and I back-up previous configurations using Nova Launcher backup so I could fall-back to my previous designs as per required  But yeah, moving widgets/realigning them is really

So I have a page of homescreen with only a clock and nothing else. Swipe left/right for widgets haha Homescreen with only a clock? Child's play  My current setup Simple lockscreen with DashClock. The text is a bit difficult to see because of the light-ish wallpaper.. Might consider changing it haha.
Homescreen  It's as minimal as it gets LOL.
Two finger swipeup to access the dock. Swipe left and right on the dock for additional frequently used apps.
Two finger swipedown to access the app drawer.
It's fun having friends trying to figure out my phone. That's probably the main reason it's like this This post has been edited by TwoJay: Mar 24 2013, 11:31 AM

There's no app drawer button and they are having a hard time to figure out where it is (except one of my friend whom are android user himself, easily figured out that I used swipe-up gesture for app drawer; but did not realized that I replaced the home button to be the app drawer button too  )
