Android is cool because it's hackable and open-source: If you're willing and able, you can root your phone and make it look exactly as you want it to. That said, not everyone is comfortable withhacking a phone just to get a pretty interface.

Luckily, you have some easy ways to make your Android device more attractive without hacking it.

Make Your Wallpaper Live

You'll find two types of wallpaper for Android phones: regular, static wallpaper, and dynamic, "live" wallpaper. Live wallpaper is nifty--especially when you're showing off your Android handset to iPhone users--but it can drain your phone's battery and bog down its software.

The key to choosing live wallpaper is to make sure that isn't too animated. Excessive animation not only negatively affects your phone's system, but also makes your phone look cluttered and busy.

Here are a few simple, appealing live wallpapers to get you started.

Nightfall Live Wallpaper Free
Developer: Jason Allen
Price: Free

In this wallpaper you get a slowly swirling purple-and-blue night sky, with a silhouette of trees in the foreground. The full version, which costs about $1.50, allows you to change the foreground silhouette and turn the moon and stars on and off.

Shake Them All
Developer: Yougli
Price: Free

This cute wallpaper uses your phone's accelerometer to propel Android droids across the screen. You can customize everything from the color to how the droids react to things (they can respond to light, music, acceleration, and gravity).

Wave Live Wallpaper
Developer: Crazy Zen Lab
Price: Free

This soothing wallpaper is inspired by the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable background waves. The free version includes 11 colors, three background types, and two touch-point icons, while the full version ($1) gives you more color options and a few other interesting features (such as shaking the phone to change the color).

Best Matrix Live Wallpaper
Developer: A.O.I. Studio
Price: Free

Who doesn't like The Matrix? True nerds (like myself) might notice that the imagery here isn't completely identical to The Matrix's raining code, which uses backward Japanese characters--but it's still pretty cool.

Aurora Live Wallpaper
Developer: Ketsoyan
Price: Free

This simple, purple-hued wallpaper simulates the Aurora Borealis. Tapping the screen produces bursts of stars.

Use Attractive Widgets

You know those neat widgets that you can place on your phone's home screen? They're Android-only--nothing for iPhone users here. Of course, not all widgets are created equal: While most provide useful information, many are bulky and unattractive.
