YESSS

Thank you so much for telling us, I am new and probably would have tried it lol
[G2 and Desire Z General] MrTechnikron:
thanks bro

that's funny because when i first rooted my g2( i was a noob) i used that permanent root. my phone works perfectly.

maybe i got lucky. :eek:
[G2 and Desire Z General] :
High risk meaning the brick WILL happen eventually? I rooted mine with visionary, and had no problem.
[G2 and Desire Z General] strawmetal:
Visionay freezes

:mad:Visionary:mad: installed but always froze on my Desire Z...had to use ADB to root...

ADB looked scary in the beginning but now i have no qualms...
[G2 and Desire Z General] Shinfang:
If your phone's fine then your good to go, if something would've happened, then it's most likely it would've been during the rootprocess
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
Visionary stopped being updated over a year ago, and therefore doesn't work on "recent" firmware versions for a long time now. I'm surprised people are still considering this root method.

I need help downgrading to Froyo. When I put any command in the adb shell in get, permision denied. I been using a guide that ask you to put cat/dev/msm_rotator in adb shell, I get the response dev/msm_rotator: permision denied. If somone can help me or show me a guide I will be very thankfull.

Never tried Visionary but do not want to take the risk of damaging my phone.

I used visionary to gain temp root after downgrading to froyo and it worked just fine. Not a single issue
[G2 and Desire Z General] crestofawave:
@kingclo615 Far as I know Temp Rooting using Visionary isn't harmful, but it's good practice to stay away from it.

[G2 and Desire Z General] MrKioFLow:
ocificel benefactors

I have been browsing over XDA for a while now, and came to a conclusion that most of the s off guides are either non compatible with perm root (i used visionary) or outdated. Then i came across this, and decided im going to try it. But as you know, i already have perm root from visionary, and none of these guides mention what to do, whether it should be deleted and remove root, or just let it be. If im going to use gfree, it says to delete visionary and is that all i do?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Nipqer:
I'd say delete visionary and flash a stock froyo rom.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkusPO:
just throwing this out - is it possible for the ns to run apache, php, mysql which other computers could then connect to via wifi / whatever?

for me, that'd come in insanely useful.

still thinking of choosing the ns over the sgs II. ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmetek:
I tried this way

I strongly recommend root explorer from the market to navigate to /system/app. You should then click on "Mount R/W" to mount the files as readable/writable instead of the default read only. When you are done, click on "Mount R/O" to prevent further changes.

But didn't work hehe :p
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] status_six:
You need s-off to do it while your phone is booted i.e. via root explorer or Ti backup. You can get s-off via www.alpharev.nl and there are a few good threads about it here on xda.

Otherwise I think you can do it via hboot and adb on your pc, but I'm not very experienced with that!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
+1.

S-ON, you can only remove it via ADB with a few commands, but not that hard.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmetek:
will try adb hehe....
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] navdra:
Try to do it with ADB, but from recovery. Be sure to mount with write access.

OK, here we go....:D

This is a port of my cm6.1 theme now for CM7

I redid a few images, mainly the battery and a few odds and ends....themed out Music, Genie, DeskClock and Power control widgets.

there are a few more things i'd like to do with this....;)

*edit* now fixed and with only 1 apk :D

Instructions:

1. Download apk

2. Place on the root of your sd card

3. Using a file explorer, install "alpha7_signed_11.apk"

4. Open theme chooser

5. Select alpha7

6. You will get this error: "Sorry, this theme is missing assets for your device's screen size." Hit apply anyway

7. Reboot

8. Enjoy!

Download: Alpha7

Addons:

Included in the attachment are several wallpapers, docks and if you use it, a widgetlocker theme :D

Haha. Solid. This is one of my favorite themes. Thank you. :)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] il Duce:
Nice looking work! I have a thought about the not installing correctly, the theme chooser apps only seem to render their fullness if in /system/app, if left in /data/app they seem to be less complete. I use androidian, and if I run it as a data app it doesn't apply the .png for the dropdown header, and if it's in system app, it does :confused: anyway, hope that helps...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jasonevil:
the problem is the theme Chooser. up till a certain nightly or RC, themes would show in the theme Chooser. now, they wont show but the number of themes installed will change.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] cp0020:
It wouldn't let me. I install the 1st apk and when I try to install the 2nd it asks me to launch the app or uninstall... like a if the 2 apk's were the same.

did it ask to overwrite existing. if so say yes
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] cp0020:

im asking because i dnt know flash em?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jasonevil:
Sorry, not trying to be snarky...my mom was just placed in the hospital....

Why we have to install two apk files??
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jasonevil:
because if i follow the directions in the android forum for compiling a theme in windows...it won't show up in the theme chooser, the number of themes change but it won't show up for you to select it....

it will work on older nightlies perfectly that way....

but for some reason, on any nightly or RC after 3/27...it won't show up

so basically, the two apks are the exact same thing with the exception of one thing in the manifest. in the first one....the \ for the theme preview is taken out. so it will show up in the theme chooser but if you try to apply that....it says it wasn't compiled correctly and won't do jack....

the second apk has the \ in the theme preview which makes it not show up in the theme chooser...

but if you do the first one, then install the second one right behind it, it will work....i'd love not have to do that but no one can answer my questions on why it won't work anymore...

most common answer is that the dev broke the theme chooser...but that can't be true

but no matter what, i can't get any theme compiled in windows to work on any of my test phones and i have 3 unless i set up two apks....

now if i had linux and the aapt from tmobile, which doesn't work on windows, to compile with....i wouldn't have these problems.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ULoveAriana:
Anytime :)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ULoveAriana:
No prob :)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ULoveAriana:
You can't from my knowledge...not in adw. You can use launcher pro or something for those custom docks. And you can't make the status bar pic go away...it's part of the design of the status bar
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] riggs32:
Alright well if I install launcher pro how do I do it on that?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ULoveAriana:
Make sure the custom dock is in a folder somewhere on your SD. Hit menu then go to preferences then go to appearance then dock or whatever it says...you'll see it, then select that & select custom then it will take you to your gallery where you'll be able to select your dock. Hope that helps :)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] user7618:
You can change docks on adw ex, not standard adw. Also, to hide the status bar you can set it to a gesture with adw. I have swipe up set to hide the status bar on mine.

See? Non standard dock and no status bar. :)

Second, what is the push icon for wi-fi supposed to be on this theme? Just a reverse of the regular radio icon?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] dpeeps74:
yes on the wifi icon. as for undoing anything the circle battery caused, flash the rom over the toop of itself
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] SwineFlu85:
I love your theme, great work all around. But I am getting the error "not properly compiled". I have read through the comments on this thread and see you started with two .apk's that needed to be installed over each other. I also saw that someone helped make your theme install properly with just one file. I'm not sure if the file that is now linked to "download" is the current, working apk. I have tried several re-installs to no avail. Any help in this matter would be appreciated.

Thanks,

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] dpeeps74:
Just click apply anyway. Why would you wanna click anything saying "bummer" after coming this far? Most themes out there for the cdma hero will all give that message.

Edit: if you're on an hdpi device then you're just getting an error that won't let you apply anyway and I'd bet that's working as designed lol
