aHome
The aHome G1 application is another excellent home replacement application that allows you to heavily customize your home screen with skins and widgets. There are quite a few themes, font sets, and widgets available on the Market – some free, some costing a nominal amount. The app ships with a few widgets, but these are limited to a few clock and weather widgets. You can also set aHome to enable up to ten screens on your G1. It also supports a dock bar that holds four of your most frequently used app icons that are persistent across screens.
The settings screen brims with customization choices: Empty Screen, Wallpaper Scrolling, Auto Rotate – all of which allow you to really customize the look-and-feel of your G1. Some of the icon choices on the default theme feel a little tacky, but some of the themes are definitely very professional, with clean icons and graphics. This is a great home replacement and customization app with a responsive and active development team behind it that responds pretty quickly to bug fixes and issues.
