How to make your Android look like the new Nexus 5
With the official presentation of the new version of the system Android 4.4, better known as KitKat , and from its new flagship terminal, the Nexus 5, other issues of interest to more users have also arrived impatients And it is that although the release date of this device has been set for the next 8th, some of the applications have already been leaked that you will bring with you.Tools from Google improved compared to current versions and can already be used in some terminals more or less effectively.
With them it is possible to modify in a certain way the appearance of the terminal or test some of the characteristics of this terminal.

To achieve a desktop similar to that of the Nexus 5 beyond imitating its wallpaper, changing the appearance of the applications and menus, you need to follow a few steps.Thus it is necessary to install three applications extracted directly from the terminal.

Finally you have to install Google Home, the launcher or environment that modifies the appearance of the terminal. This time with small variations compared to Android 4.0 such as the translucent effect of the bottom bar, among other issues.
Apart from this question, it is possible to download the wallpapers, also filtered, which will bring by default the Nexus 5 Colorful and striking images that border on cubism and play with perspectives.In this way, the desktop would be personalized despite the fact that the guts of the terminal do not resemble the latest flagship of Google But what about the rest of the tools?
Among them stands out Clock, the widget or direct access of the clock that has modified its characters and that looks especially good on the new backgrounds. We must also mention Google Keyboard, the renewed keyboard that now includes emoticons Emoji Like this you can compose emails with them, or include them anywhere else you can write.
Hangouts, the messaging tool like WhatsApp also has changed. This time to introduce the SMS messages and establish itself as a unique tool from which to contact other people.Finally there are new versions with some variations like the email from Gmail, the notes application Keep , the calendar, the camera and the gallery where they are stored. Tools that may not work on some devices but can be tested now.
