The Big Text Home Screen

The Big Text Home ScreenWe've seen a lot of text-based home screens, but painfulpunches does something a little different for those that don't want to waste their time reading the fine print. Here's what it looks like.

A friend of mine asked me to design a launcher setup for his mother who was becoming quite visually impaired and was also a complete technophobe. i ended up really liking the cleanness of the whole thing and keeping it as my setup too.

The ROM is CM10 For Htc One S (Ville). The Icons are all custom images made in Photoshop using a font called Revolution II. I used Desktop VisualizeR to place and space them. (play.google.com)

The battery monitor is Circle Battery Widget, which just by chance happened to fit around the outside of the default Android 4.2 Analog Clock Widget.

The Launcher is Nova Launcher Prime, and swiping up toggles the notification bar, whereas swiping down expands notifications.
Needless to say I left these features out of my friends mum's version.

Do you have an awesome, tweaked-into-oblivion home or lock screen of your own that you'd like to share? Go ahead and post it on the #homescreenshowcase forum with a description of how you made it and it may be the next featured home screen.
