Featured Theme: Muki, Android 4.0 Inspired

June 20th, 2012 Hornet

This beautiful theme, cutely named Muki, is inspired by Android’s Ice Cream Sandwich. Muki is a flash based them so it has a completely new lockscreen. Unlike the traditional ‘Slide Screen To Unlock’ this theme theme has a new ‘Tap to Unlock’ feature. All the user has to do is tap the lock icon and the phone will be ready to go. Included in the lockscreen is a nice horizontal scrolling live wallpaper which you can scroll sideways. As for the icons, Muki uses the good ol’ stock icons. Missed call and messages notifications also show up on the display. Only for bada 2.0.

Theme Review: Honeycomb Pro (by: prokshit)

May 31st, 2011 Dane

Do you find yourself loving bada but also wanting some Honeycomb goodness? If so, this is the theme for you! I was browsing the Samsung Wave theme section and came across what of the best looking themes I have seen in a long time. Designed by forum member and donor, prokshit, this theme is a great example of what a bada theme should be. It is clean, simple, not over-the-top, and works very well!

The design of the theme is very much like Honeycomb….from the clock widget, to the background and even the wallpaper…the developer did a fine job with this. As I stated earlier, the theme comes with some widgets (digital and analog clock, app carousel) that just make the theme that much better.

As far as function is concerned, some users stated that the app carousel was not working properly but that is being worked on it seems according to the forum. Otherwise, all the widgets work very well, the theme is smooth and refined, and the will work great on the Wave.

Overall, the design of this theme, the widgets, and even the little details like the battery indicator are amazing and with smooth functionality…this theme is a WINNER!!

Price: FREE | Developer: prokshit | Device(s) Supported: Wave S8500
