Description
HTC Sense Modification to my theme "Lighthouse 3.1".This really isn't so much a functionality mod as it is a visually pleasing mod to Android, but it includes the sexiness Sense has always come to be known to have.
The Weather/Clock widget has been updated to include no extra features but now matches the matte style of 2.3, 3.0, and 3.1. Tapping the widget leads you to the 15 day forecast brought to you by AccuWeather. No that was not an ad, I just like their 15 day forecasts.

Keep wishing buddy, I ain't gonna do much with this thing anymore. But I like your optimism! The world needs more people like you.

1st- I love the concept. but....
2nd- In my personal opinion (take it as you may), wouldn't using a UI such as this kinda go against HTC's style? Theirs is flowing, simple, and beautiful. While this is visually appealing and simple, it isn't as much flowing or beautiful. It almost resembles stock Gingerbread (Nexus S)
But that's just me. I would still use this. It's pretty amazing :3

I for one, cannot stand HTC Sense. I think it's an unnecessary, overly obtrusive skin atop Android, and I would personally never use it. However, when I was presented with the ability to design a concept, I jumped at the chance. I tried my best to make it as close to stock as possible (hence what you noticed). I recently re-did this skin. Check out my profile (HTC Sense 4).

Well, for me, the reason why I love it is because smooth, and it has the best music app and the best widgets there are. Plus, their phones themselves are amazing.

Do you know where can I download such cell phone wallpaper from?
Thank you!

I would imagine searching Google would return the best results for what you are searching for (be sure to set the size to your phone's screen resolution), but if you can't find it, I'd be happy to upload the image I used online.

Could you provide me a PSD of this? Thanks in advance!

Yes, I will upload it soon. I can't upload the phone part though (like the hardware), a user named Zandog was the original creator and I cannot re-submit his work.

Yeah, no probs! I have tried a hand at it myself - HTC Nexus One ! Check it out!

Wow! That is fantastic! Nicely done! I am jealous of your design, I had been pondering something like that for a while. What is the font you used for the clock (widget)?

Well, I googled 'Android 3.0 font' and got one from a website! I don't remember it now, though! Sorry!

No problem. I have skills with Google. I uploaded the .psd(s) you requested. The main (phone) version is just the PSD, whereas the Sense UI for Honeycomb is in a .rar format, with the PSD inside (it is huge!).

Since 3.0 is only for tablet, and that android will branch after hitting 2.6... no.

Glad to see you're optimistic.

It's not optimism of what's at stake here anyway, i never said it wasn't a wicked cool design, i just don't think it'd be 3.1...
Release some more elements as a similar image, and you'd have your theme made into a mod and slapped all over XDA in no time.

Ah, I see. You're very right. Looking at the difference between Android currently featured on tablets (3.0) and the current smartphone version, I could see Android changing itself up a lot. Then again, I released this before Android tablet 3.0 (whatever it's called) was announced, so I didn't foresee such a huge change in UI design.

Hmm, okay. Taken into consideration.

It's only a concept for now. Maybe later I will release it.

This is awesome!
Is it possible to make this? I see you've provided the icons and link to weather icons. Are there any skins for clock/weather widgets (beautiful widgets or fancy widgets etc.)?
Once again great work!

I admit I'm working with some of my computer-junkie friends on making the skin, and if everything works out I'll release it. But that's still a ways away (or sooner than I think-I could use a break-through).

Sweet! I wish I could help but I'm not great at that kind of stuff.
