Been seeing too many iPhones around now so I decided to change it up a bit. I combined icons from two themes, MOBILEOSX2 for my dock icons and GUNMETAL REDUX for my icons. GR didnt have all the icons I needed so I decided to make a few of my own with his outline. Change the clock to a Audemars Piguet Watch Face, the photo icon to a picture of my dog, ToDo List to the company logo, TTR to a mario dancing, Tetris to a basic tetris icon, lights off to a light bulb and installer to a box, Apollo to a AIM icon and all the other icons are originals from GUNMETAL REDUX. Changed the carrier logo to my name, added colors to the reception and wi-fi bars. and changed the "slide to unlock" to say "Mikey's iPhone"

I like that you can rearrange the icons. It would be nice to get rid of the ones you don't use, as well. In the end, though, I like Apple's icons better.

Changing the carrier logo and slider text is pretty cool, too. I wouldn't mind being able to do that.

How difficult is it to undo it, a simple reset.

From what I've been reading about Apple not honoring iphones that have been hacked gives me pause on doing it (if I owned one that is)

Plugging it into iTunes and choosing reset will reset it back to factory defaults.

I missed the todo list app - where do you find this for installing?
