Got around to taking a screenshot.

The Life bar is the remaining battery power.
When you swipe the dock on the bottom to the left/right, there's the icons for GBCoid, Gameboid, Nesoid, SNesoid and N64oid.

That's a pretty sweet life meter. Which app is that? Or did the usual one get updated?

What do you mean by "usual one"?
When you tap it, options appear and you can change the heart style.

I usually see people using the 3-heart app, but this one looks kind of cool with 2 rows of hearts. And I didn't even know they could change styles -.- I'm dumb. Anyways, I found it.
Here's both of them :

edit: the app pingouin7 is using is called "Battery Health Bar Widget" while the other one is called "Heart Container Battery Meter"
They both have options for changing styles.

Only had my Nexus 7 for a couple of weeks, so other than unlocking the bootloader and rooting the stock jelly bean its had little done to it.

May have to get that battery health bar thing though :P
 
Five screens. I'm experimenting with hubs, can't decide if I'm keeping the text only thing but I think it looks good for now. Each screen has a wallpaper that kind of fits the content.

Evangelion OS, since it's system-y

Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai for social apps because the show is about being social. idk.

I'm not even an anime freak or anything, lol.
 
Clean and simple, im using a launcher called Holo Launcher and I attempted to make it look like a game console UI (XMB in this case), the dock toggles when I double press the home button and the Status Bar slides down the normal way. Not bad for a Ginger Bread with a locked bootloader if you ask me.

I have a rooted Nexus 7 but its not letting me take a proper screenshot. Basically I went a minimal-approach to my Home Screen.

Its just the Fresh Leaves Live Wall Paper with no widgets, shortcuts, or docks. Its completely empty. No widgets, because I soon-realized that widgets merely give you repeat information of stuff YOU ALREADY SEE in the notification bars. Why do I need a clock widget if the time is in the top right corner? Why do I need a weather app, if Beweather can give me the temperature in the bottom left corner?

I also hid the docks and shortcuts as I've setup my launcher to react to various swipes. If I swipe down anywhere, my notification bar gives me standard notifications as well as a controller for my media thats playing. If I swipe anywhere up, it gives me battery% info as well as shortcuts to settings, Bluetooth, Brightness, and so-on. If I pinch in on the screen, then a VoiceIP app opens to allow me to make free calls to any phone on my wifi-only nexus. If I pinch out, it opens up Solid Explorer, which is a beautiful and functional file explorer that gives image previews. Of course holding down home brings up voice search for google now, and finally, I just double tap the screen to bring up my app drawer. The app drawer of course is organized with useless aps and shortcuts like Play Magazines or Google+ remain hidden, while useful google apps are in a gapps folder with a separate folder with games. That way when I open up the App Drawer, there are but a few, easily found essential apps, rather than multiple pages of apps I don't use.
