Here’s my second take on doing a Googlish homescreen. This time I tried to incorporate some more colors into the wallpaper.
Instructions and resources: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/29210884/Holo%20UI%20rev2%20by%20fluffen.zip
Thanks to xniikk for the weather icons.
Hope you like it :)
/Christian
doesnt fit the i9300(sgs3) :( … to bad i love this ui!
@flwngmedia Do you got Photoshop? Try removing the black borders at the bottom and top and see if it works.
Well Done. Clean, yet Elegant. Diggin it a lot. (Leaf is kinda odd though)
clean and simple, yet beautiful done :)
i made a screen to, could you please comment with some feedback, like what improvements i could make to it.
One word: Wonderful!
What are you using as search widget near the top, looks like a tablet search widget but how do you enable it?
I wanted to commend you on not only your amazing tutorial in your Dropbox file but also your willingness to share everything you’ve done for this screen.
It’s really well done. Great job and thanks!
@UberSlackr I like leaves :D
@emildk11 Looks very nice and functional. On the design side maybe use the same icon theme for all apps
@semati Thanks!
@ZeDDiE They are shortcuts for Google Search and Nova Settings.
@phoenixwave Thanks man, really appreciate it. Well I like open source and I use alot of stuff for free from other people so I don’t have the morals to charge you for any money, since it’s just a picture in Photoshop :)
Thanks for sharing. I edited it to work with the Galaxy S3 w/ GoLauncher. Great work!
@Mr_Howard Thanks! Nice job getting it fit on the S3, it’s pretty tricky at times
Beautiful and easy to use with your great and simple tutorial. Thank you very much. This is my new desktop and I fucking love it !
@obibi No fucking problem :D Glad to help!
Beautiful as the v1. Curious as to why you didn’t include the time and date on this one, though.
I love your screens man, I’m currently using this one on my S2, it’s awesome, I really hope you will continue your great work (:
And maybe you wanna check out my version (;
@osully Time I can see in the status bar and date on Lockscreen and Notification drawer :)
@SuperChristian Great work on fitting it on the S2 :D Looked freaking awesome!!
Yea, im working on getting the same icons :)
Works great on my Samsung Galaxy Note! It is awesome!
@Daimen97 Nice to hear! Thanks :D
@Howard Can you please provide the Galaxy s3 modified .psd file? This screen made my sign up for this site. But I have an s3 and my photoshop skills are not the best. Thank you.
Just did it on my s3 and i love it, I had to crop the picture a bit so i cant see the social and u cause i had to crop them out to make it fit my screen, and it still looks good, good work once again :)
@lp93 Thanks :)
First of all let me say thanks for your excellent creation! I have one question though, is there a way i can get rid of the leaves and use a custom image? I’m guessing it will require Photoshop and a PSD of the background image..let me know how cause leaves aren’t that dear to me that i need to see them daily! Thanks in advance!
@clinch89 Yeah it will require Photoshop. If you don’t have it just send a email to fluff3n@gmail with your desired picture and I can help you.
excelent dude… but how to make the background wallpaper as a singel screen?
Too bad the lock screen will be that same image and you’ll have to use widget locker which on jelly bean sucks
@lilcoleslaw Some custom ROMS gives u the ability to change the lockscreen independently from the homescreen
@fluffen Emailed u!
thanks @fluffen for this great skin, i make some height adjustment for my S3 coz its higher than this. and i make inverted color so its dark, coz i like dark :)
btw here my screen mycolorscreen.com/2013/03/04/r3v3t3d/
@fluffen After watching some photoshop tutorials and following the notes on @2UK3y’s PSD file, i finally figured it out last night. You can discard the email. Thanks again.
Congratulation, this screen has been selected as Screen of the Day 03/07/13
Your theme on my Samsung Galaxy SIII LTE

Loved this concept. Thanks for sharing your files and tutorial. Here is mine running on my new Sony Xperia Z.

@Niklas how did you make the background image fit .. I suck at photoshop and dont know how to resize it.
My new homescreen :)
Fantastic job!!!
You absolute legend. Set it up flawlessly on my GNex, looks mindblowing! The nickname “fluffen” reminds me of a Counter-Strike player. Plus you being Swedish, there’s a very high chance you are. Are you?
EDIT: Here’s a screen:
http://i.imgur.com/jEBbtXV.png
@edinchez Yes I’m born and raised in Göteborg, but I’ve never played Counter Strike ;)
@clinch89 Oh I was just getting started.. Well good job anyways, hope you get good at Ps. Best of luck! /Christian :)
@edinchez @Matrix16wcc thanks
@neoghio Awesome to see it working on another device!!
@niklasvii Bra jobbat :)@2uk3y Wow, really cool! :)
What is the name of the icon pack?
@Qpa Minimal MIUI. Search for it on Google Play
Great set-up and thanks for the files.
@LFCFredda Thanks! Glad to help you out.
I would love to get a gmail dock icon, I tried making my own but I don’t like it.
trying on my galaxy nexus and the wall paper is just a little too big, at 768×1280, so cuts off the buffered border. any suggestions on getting the perfect fit? trying to set using nova wallpaper and just cuts off that little extra.
Can someone post a background for the S3 please??
@cjohnson481 Have you tried resize it in some kind of program?
@jak3z Do you got a nexus 4? I can make one that fits the N4 perfectly
@fluffen Could you make one that fits the galaxy s3?? btw your theme is awesome!
@fluffen Yes I got a nexus 4 :)
@jak3z Re-download the pack again, added a Mail icon :) Hope it looks good
@zuperpailon Sorry man, don’t got any S3 to test it on or time for that matter. Look through these comments, I think someone had a S3 and made it :)
@Mr_Howard What grid size did you use? And did you use the original background without editing and fitted it in a 720×1280 frame?
@fluffen Looks good! Thanks
This is brilliant! will be chucking this onto my s2 today! Noticed alot of people asking about sizes to fit different handsets… For those with photoshop heres a quick fix. create a new file the same dimensions as your handset (the S2 being 480 x 800 @217dpi) then drag the Holo UI rev .2 screen into it and resize to fit… Making sure you have the right DPI for your phone to ensure you get the best pixel density so it looks smooth and crisp.
@fluffen tried with crop wallpaper and it looks all jacked up. confused since i am used a galaxy nexus like you, and have nova launcher prime and following the steps exactly.
Wicked theme!!! On My Nexus 4 the background fits perfect but are you sure your nova grid is 6x7as the main app icons don’t seem to align?
@fluffen thanks anyway man! Keep up the good work
This is my edit wallpaper to fit Galaxy nexus. Everything eles you gúy just need to follow an awsome Christian Svensson’s guide :)

If someone can link the WP fitting well on SGS3, my photoshop skills are too weak :(
@phuongtv88 THanks for helping everybody out! Respect for sharing :D
@Major It should yes. Do you got width margin set to Large?
Everthing fits fine on a Note II with a desktop grid of 11 x 7. Except the Cloud and clock. I had to re-align those manually with Zooper/UCCW which is pretty easy to do.
@cjohnson481 I don’t got a Galaxy Nexus
@gamer228 Nice job :)
Thank you Christian for this great layout!
I finally managed to customize it for my Galaxy S3.
Here’s the result:
http://mycolorscreen.com/2013/03/08/google-x/
It’s very simple but attractive look ~
but I wanted to ask, what if I used the samsung galaxy ace II, which is still gingerbread and I use holo launcher, but confused looking for icons miui >___< because it doesn't support for holo launcher
Can i get the wallpaper for note 2.
Please..please help me out…
@niklasvii
Nice!!! You should remove the shadow of the bottom and top ^_^
@psycomagic You could still use the stock icons, but fitting the wallpaper might be a bummer.
@ornberg Looks awesome! :D
Hi, i want try to try this setup on my Galaxy Nexus, but i don’t have Photoshop, unfortunately. i saw the link that phuongtv88 posted before, but that file is no longer available. can someone who has the file, or was able to make it work on a Galaxy Nexus help me? even a resized screen from one of you Photoshop Gurus would do.
Christian, thank you for sharing this amazing work with us, I really loved this HS. Heres mine, with some minor changes. Hope you guys like it.
Device: HTC Sensation
Dock Icons: RoundGlassBlue (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=icontheme.blackbearblanc.roundglassblue&hl=pt_BR)

@carfreak715 For you, i uploaded some wallpaper i made for this awsome setup on my GNex, hope you like it ;)

Very Nice
@phuongtv88 thank you so much, you are awesome.
hi bro can i get the screen for my SGS2 ?
@fluffen Hey Fluffen, can you tell me how to change the leaf picture to a picture of my choice? I’m not very good at photoshop, so i don’t know how i’d do it…
UPDATE: I figured out how to change the image! and it looks nice! But the problem is… I have my phone set up to where I don’t have a nav bar or the notification bar… is there any way to make it fit?
@phuongtv88 If you could resize those to the original nexus 4 size that would be amazing!!!!! I don’t even have Photoshop so I’m not gonna even attempt it lol
Hi Christian,
Thx for your amazing work ;-)
Here is my little adaptation for 2 screens, with a bit of Doctor Who inside ;-)
https://www.dropbox.com/s/mnsfnse56vkzd0s/Holo%20UI%20rev2%20DWV2.png
Arms
@Arms Looks dope! :D
@fluffen Hey Christian, I was wondering if you could tell me how to make one for a Nexus 4 that doesn’t have a nav bar or a notification bar….
@mrjoeltan Do you got Photoshop? I made a .psd that I’ve tested without any status bar and nav bar https://dl.dropbox.com/u/29210884/Holo_UI_rev2_expanded.psd works great with PIE for example. Use the regular icons i provided, and change the Rows to 7. :)
Great work mate! I was wondering though… when I add the UCCW-widget (clock, date, name etc) and want to edit the text how do I do that? Coz when I click on the widget when its added onto the screen nothing happens and when I hold long the “delete” and “resize”-options comes up. Can you help? Thanks!
@Lunaspice Just press the widget once, then select the “Static Text” object and edit it :)
When I press it nothing happens whatsoever… hrm. Sjukt störigt!
EDIT: Reinstalled UCCW and now it works like a charm. :D
@Lunaspice Gött gött!
@fluffen Got it to work, and it looks awesome! So glad I can use this without the notif bar and nav bar in ParanoidAndroid. Thanks alot fluffen. (:
@mrjoeltan Awesome! No problem, just hit me up if you run into any other troubles
anybody tried.. using multipicture live wallpaper?? im also using nexus4.. having problems with fitting… still using apex..
@Christian Svensson can you provide me with the leaf picture i want to put it as screen wallpaper lock screen
@ImTheOne1998 https://dl.dropbox.com/u/29210884/726.jpg :))
Thanks :)
Hey, just found this and I’d really like to adapt this with some tweaks. Problem is,that I only have PS Elements at the moment and can’t open the folders in the .psd’s. If you could manage to upload the psds with single layers and without folders I’d be very thankful. Cheers and amazing work =)
Yeah! Got it working perfectly! Started out by putting the icons onto the wallpaper in GIMP 2, because that was the method you used on version 1 of HoloUI.. Then I realized you’ve made it possible to just change the icon in your launcher, which is PERFECT!
So this is what it ended up like: http://i.imgur.com/RhMo2T9.png
I removed the photo, since it was a bit weird on HoloUI-1, and added some info about my phone. Secondly, I removed that “Start” in the top, since I felt it didn’t really make sense for me. Thirdly, I removed the launcher settings in top right – I use “swipe two fingers up” to open it instead. And then finally, of course, I have changed the logo’s colors to suit the dark wallpaper! EDIT: And yeah, added a folder icon in the right side, to have more apps on the homescreen like ver.1.
Thanks a lot for a great UI! Think I’m gonna have this for a very long time (unless you make a rev.3 soon, hah).
Keep up the good work.
@Hamduden Looks awesome man, a perfect fit ;) Glad it worked out
@pollinho https://www.dropbox.com/s/qd4s1mzlxldpg6n/Holo_UI_rev2_psd_nofolder.psd There you go :)
Wow, thanks a lot =)
Thanks!! :D
Hey, your home screen is so nice.
I’m sorry to boring you, but I have few question…
I don’t understand how change the round image…and the wallpaper behind.
Did u change these on Photoshop?
Because I have just photofiltre, and I don’t speak as well English so it’s little bit hard for me to understand everything when u explain smth.
Btw, thx u if u want answer me.
@MarieRZ Yes it is changed in Photoshop. Might work in GIMP too (GIMP is a free program that is similar to PS)
Really Nice Work!
@flwngmedia just do a little photo shoping
amazing. looks neat and clear
PS: I’d prefer to use GIMP
@fluffen Amazing work! This theme has become my favorite to date! I do have a few questions, and I hate to sound like a broken record: 1. I followed your every instruction to the letter (I have a Nexus 4) but a 6×7 grid doesn’t align the icons properly. I have actually reversed it with a 7X6 grid and found this to be more suitable. Have I done anything wrong/overlooked here? The icons look more in tune but still do not fit the way yours does. Will I have to tinker with PS or GIMP? Also, 2. is there an easy way to change the picture of the leaf if desired? I’m sure you’ve got other things going on, but any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks!
UPDATE: I used GIMP to change the leaf image, so I’m cool with that, lol. But I would love advice on the grid/alignment so they fit like yours. Thank you!
@Kakito Thanks!
@Joshonator83 What size do you got on the icons? I used 90% and it aligned perfectly. Follow the instructions again and make sure you got everything right :)
I love this theme! I noticed that the icon theme is no longer the Play Store. Alternatives? Thanks.
@klavergne@XDA
You can get it here. Looks shady but it is legit, just installed. Not sure why KXNT doesn’t ahve it in the app store anymore. My favoriet icons set

@Christian
Love this theme very much. Don’t you have those grey dock icons in white pls? I’d like to change to a darker wp…thx
Can you please make the wallpaper for galaxy s3 sir??
Hi, I’m living this design but I’m stuck with the PSD. How am I meant to get it to show up on UCCW since UCCW only lets me open uzip files?
Looking for Dock and top icons for the dark version of the UI if you have.
Thanks!
@kaptawesome
