Best iPhone theme or Program for Sprint Touch
 
I am trying to find the best program or theme to make my Sprint Touch more like the iPhone. I like the large icons and easy finger access like the iPhone has. Right now I use Wisbar Advance 3 for a better taskbar, but I don't like using my stylus all the time.

I see there are a lot of choices to make my Sprint Touch like the iPhone, but which is the best.

You have Wisbar Advance Desktop (itorx iphone theme). You have iFonz (but 1.00 has some problems). I think rltoday program. There is Winterface from Vito technology, looks promising, but it is incomplete. There is SPB mobile shell 2.1, but it is not really like the iphone, plus I just didn't like it.

What do you think? I am missing another theme or program. What do you think will work best on the Touch?

i would go with torx's theme... tried it once, a while ago, but i don't even like making my phone look like the iphone... after using torx's theme and jdume's diamond theme with WAD2, i've started skinning my own which in the end sets me completely aside from the iphone....
My friend with an iphone said to me last week "wow, that UI looks pretty cool (my custom WAD2), you're finally makin it look original and not like my phone!"

Thats when i thought, man, why the hell do we want our phones to look the the d*mn iphone? Maybe i'll just have it on there to show someone "look, i can do it too, but i'd rather use my own creation"

I would love to make my own themes, but I don't have the time. I own Wisbar Advance 3 and I just download themes other people created. Gant's theme is very finger friendly. I just hate using the stylus all the time. I want to be able to press an icon and get my program or type easy enough with finger, instead of a stylus. I doesn't has to be just like the iPhone, but I happen to like the setup the iPhone has, very finger friendly. I probably would have bought an iPhone if it was on the Sprint network. I have too good of a plan to ever switch, plus Sprint keeps giving me phones.

Doesn't Torx theme only work on Wisbar Advance Desktop 1 not 2? Is using WAD easy to use and setup? I am tempted to try iFonz, only because it is an all in one package, but I guess I would have to uninstall Wisbar Advance 3 if I do install iFonz.

torx vote for me also, very clean and fingerfriendly.

Seems like U just care about ur phones interface and not the phone can do. I see Iphone was mentioned countless times on the posts. Just go with the instinct if U cannot go to att. save U time and effort.

Can you post some screen shots for us? I completely agree with you. I'm tired of every UI being a variation on the iPhone. I would LOVE to see something better made for my phone.

Seriously agree with you there. I cant understand why people are so infatuated with making iphone look-alikes

Torx's is the best.

I was using Torx's for quite a while, but I found that WAD slowed down my phone and made it buggy. Since I got rid of WAD my phone's run perfectly.

I use SPB Mobile Shell 2.1 with a modded theme I found on XDA-Developers. But there are some out there that I plan on trying.
I have tried the iFonz - did not like it too much. I tried pointUI, it was not bad. I just am more concerned with a nice finger friendly interface, and not with having it look like the iPhone (that's why I was not too fond of iFonz).
