Show Your Homescreen II

Red Storm

I like these types of threads as I often discover new and interesting widgets/apps/themes to use for my phone. So please share your homescreen and tell us what you've got running! I'll start with mine:

The plain black background and virtually empty screen is because I have an AMOLED display (Moto X), so I like the extra battery savings. Running a few Xposed modules, namely GravityBox, GEL Settings, and NetworkSpeedIndicator. Using GEL (Google Experience Launcher modifier) I changed the nav keys so that when I'm on the homescreen the Back key becomes Sleep, and the Home key becomes the app drawer button. Holding the Recent Apps key toggles the flashlight. I used to have PIE controls on, but currently I'm trying out a shrunken nav bar.

Another great module is XVoice+, which enables all apps to send SMS through Google Voice, so in other words I can use Hangouts as my unified messaging platform without issue.
 
Does the MotoX not have toggles in the notifications panel? Always find it odd when I see people who have those widgets.
 
Note 3 running Nova, dpi at 380, and Wanam Xposed (to clean up notifications and status bar mostly).

Galaxy S4 with GPe ROM. Gel launcher. Xposed module with network speed indicator at the top. The weather widget (Chronus) also shows upcoming calendar events but I minimized it.

Note 3.

Nova Prime as always with Zooper Widget Pro (text info) and Toucher Premium (round dot) to quick launch apps and settings.)

Screens left is a full page Jorte Calendar widget, yatse xbmc control screen and screens right: AquaMail email widget and other lesser-accessed favorites folders.

I've been lazy, haven't changed this layout in months. Everything right where I need it.

Moto X. Pretty boring.

Page 1: Utilities (battery stats, torque, root explorer, transloc, screen dimmer, etc.)
Page 2: Communication (calendar & keep widgets, gmail, voice)
Page 4: Entertainment (music & audiobook widgets)
Page 5: Entertainment (pulse widget, games)
 
Mine is boring. After using Nova and Stark icons with my S4 Active and HTC First I'm simply using the stock launcher that comes with the N5. I'd like to change my icons but it's not a big deal to me. Swipe left, Google Now. Swipe right, 9 folders of apps categorized. Power toggles if I swipe down the notification shade. Digital clock Xperia.

Stock launcher with N5, how do you swipe left? I thought left screen is always the homescreen? Because I'd LOVE to have my homescreen in the middle without any mods installed.

Are you on your home screen enough to really see noticeable battery savings?
