(CAB) -AWESOME START MENU (WVGA, list view) - From XDA user JoeWilcox

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=587631

sorry if this is supposed to be in the "hd2 tweaks" thread...


This is an awesome start menu mod (no pun intended) called uhmm..."Awesome start menu", lol

Turns your start menu into a list view instead of the columns and rows of icons we're used to hating. This is the perfect compliment to winmo on the HD2.

(this is not my screenshot, just the one taken from the XDA post, it looks exactly as shown and will work with your own background image and windows theme. I've found no issues or slow down at all on the stock T-Mobile rom)

Thank you for the link to this, in my opinion the icon grid startmenu is just annoying, I like the list better. So thanks again.
Just installed this and its simply perfect.

good find, I guess I am one of the few people who like the start menu in 6.5.

Yeah this a hundred times easier to look at as opposed to the regular start menu. Such big icons randomly spread all over the screen with miniscule text is just absurd. I'm so glad I found this.

Nice Mod, however I have no use for it right now thanks to Cookies Home Tab with 3 pages of 25 Quick Links per page. If I need to get to another application then the 75, I have them at the top of the 6.5.X start menu.
