ZPlayer – A media player that looks like the Zune Media Player of Windows Phone.
Just go to the Google Play Store and install the apps listed above. All these apps (except ZPlayer) have a free version available. However, paid alternatives are also available for WP7 Contacts, WP Notifications and A.I. Type Keyboard; but the free apps should be just fine for you.

Just press the Home key on our Android device and a popup will appear prompting you to select an app to perform the action. At the bottom of this popup, you will see a check box for “Use as Default”. Check that option and select Launcher 8.

The home screen is fully customizable and one can easily change the number, size, color of tiles on the home screen (and loads of other options). The Launcher 8 app also includes a custom lock screen that resembles that of Windows Phone (The slide-up-to-unlock type). You can also put a separate wallpaper for the lock screen. Similarly, password protection can also be applied to the lock screen. The home screen and locker can be edited and configured by pressing the Menu hard key >> Theme.
