If there's a Pro-Android thread, there's a Quebert post shitting on it. Forum law.
Used to be a zen0 but I think he got slapped with a warning and ban stick too many times and he got the hint?
The clock on the notification bar is too small to read at a glance. Plus, the widget is words, which fits better with my battery widget (which is also too small to read in the notification bar, at a glance.
The reality is the iPhone's actually easier to mod.
I'm not an idiot at doing these things
What program for Android can give me the level of control either apps I mentioned do?
If you know how to code, sure the sky's the limit but that's going to make up a whole fraction of a present of the Android user base.
And seeing how Dreamboard adds widget support to iOS, if you know how to code the advantage of Android's probably not as great as most would think.
No single program- Android is more raw capitalism than the centrally planned iOS world. The equivalent to Dreamboard is T-Mobile's Theme Switcher, hundreds of widgets from the market, and alternative launchers. All together they bring in WAY more options than Dreamboard.
Actually many Android users change the OS to change the theme, hence my original point. Many many ROMs are basically theme tweaks or launcher tweaks. Modifying a ROM doesn't usually require programing skills, just winzip.
Can Dreamboard make iOS's status bar come down to the bottom? Because I can do that with a checkbox in community Android. Can Dreamboard change the DPI of the OS? Because I can easily do that in Android.
I could go on and on, but the point stands- Dreamboard and the like is only as powerful as the prepackaged options that come with them. With Android the sky is the limit. You can argue that one is easier than not, but you can't argue that Android is less "powerful" in its theming options.
