Is it just me or is there WAY too many ROMs now? To be honest, options are always good, but it seems there are so many different ROMs being pushed out and that worries me. It seems the Development thread is getting polluted with all these roms. Most of them seeming useless, at least to me. But what do I know?

Note: Maybe I'm getting tired of waiting for TW ;)
[Vibrant General] thegreatcity:
This thread is D.O.A. People complain when there's too little activity in the dev section, but I've never seen anyone complain about too much activity...

Just because TW is your favorite team, doesn't mean they should be the only ones posting roms.

This has got to be the most BS complaint the vibrant forum ever had. Well that's just what I think don't know about what the others will say.

<rant> For god's sake can we please stop with posting threads like this? Its of absolute no benefit to the community. Like stated previously by tgc first people complain the community is dying nwo that its thriving yall want to complain more? If you think something in the dev thread is of no use to you then dont bother with it, choices are good, and i for one am glad that there are new roms being put out there by new devs/dev teams that are giving us more quality stuff to play with.

So once more I implore not only you but everyone to please stop posting these useless threads. </rant>

[EVO Shift 4G Themes and Apps] Dread 7us:
Introducing my 19th theme: Shades of Orange. The new version should work with any version of CM7 but I've only tested it on Stable 7.0.0. New version is an APK compatible with t-mobile theme engine (Theme Chooser). Bottom dock easily setup the same as in screenshots with instructions below. LauncherPro no longer installs with theme (download it on the market) neither do the bottom dock and icons (optional download).

Changelog:

New! 4/12/2011: T-mobile theme engine version available for Theme Chooser! This is version 1.0, so far everything seems to be working properly. Any issues please let me know here.

Disclaimer:

I'm not responsible for anything that may happen to your phone.

Instructions for new Theme Chooser version:

1. Download and install the APK (make sure you have "Unknown sources" selected in "Application settings").

2. Go into your apps and select "Theme Chooser".

3. Select "Dreads_ShadesOfOrange" (see pic below in screenshots).

4. It will say "Theme error. Sorry, this theme is missing assets for your device's screen size.", ignore this and select "Apply anyway" (this is a known issue with the method I used to create it - assets aren't missing and it will work just fine ;)

5. Reboot phone to make sure everything takes correctly, enjoy :D

Instructions for notification power widget:

1. Press "menu".

2. Select "Settings".

3. Select "CyanogenMod settings".

4. Select "Interface".

5. Select "Notification power widget".

6. Select "Indicator color".

7. Change the color to match the theme.

Instructions for old RC4.1 version:

1. Make a nandroid just in case.

2. Wipe Dalvik cache.

3. Use CWM 3.x to flash.

4. Flash over CM7 RC4.1.

5. Make sure you have "System" selected in the app "Theme Chooser".

Optional LauncherPro Setup:

LauncherPro is available on the market. The bottom dock and icons seen in the screenshots are on optional download (flash through recovery). Once flashed icons are copied to your SD card under "DreadsOrange". To easily setup the bottom dock as seen in the screen shots follow these simple steps:

Dock

:

1. On the homescreen on launcherpro press menu.

2. Select "Dock background".

3. Select "Custom".

4. Find the bottom dock under the folder "DreadsOrange" on your sdcard.

Icons

:

1. Press and hold on whichever icon you're changing from the bottom dock.

2. Select "Change icon".

3. Select "Custom icon".

4. Find the icon under "DreadsOrange" on your sdcard.

Setup the rest as you see fit.

Font too small?

1. Go into your app drawer.

2. Select "Spare Parts".

3. Under "General" change the "Font size" to your preference :).

I think he means a side by side comparison of each ROM based on features, modems, kernels, etc

Difficult due to the ever changing nature of each ROM and the ability to swap out kernels and modems. However, it's a good way to compare the ROMs without having to dig through hundreds of posts in the dev forum :P

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n.d.:
First time poster so I hope this is an acceptable place for this question. Can someone tell me if and which ROM is the most basic? By this I mean it is a blank slate with everything removed besides items needed to operate the phone, mms/sms, camera and internet browsing. Basically everything removed that cannot be replaced by an app from the market. I tried Preception (I think it was that one) and it was ok for a couple days and then it became unstable so I am using Serendipity.

Thanks everyone...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boborone:
Stability, try andromeda, basic, go cognition. I run andromeda. There is a reason that rom has been around for so long and the dev thread is so short and always on the second or third page of the forums. Just read that thread and you will see the stabiliy.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n.d.:
I tried Cognition a couple months ago but something happened. Not really sure what. I think I used SGS and removed too much stuff and thought it would be easier to just reflash. I was going to go back to it but it looks like the dev may be awol from reading the thread.

I will try andromeda but I am a minimalist and would like for my phone to be the same where if I personally don't need it but it is available from the market or other means then I don't want it on my phone. (not sure if that makes sense but I am pretty new in the custom phone world)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] axis01:
Andromeda isn't loaded down with a bunch of apps, if that's what you're talking about. If there's something on there that you don't want, you can just uninstall it. Not a big deal. Other than that, it just plains works WELL.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n.d.:
I am still trying to educate myself on the phone and proper terminology and so forth but for lack of better terms, yes I would like to have a "stripped" down phone with only apps nessecary for the phone to function properly considering its installed hardware components.

Also can you direct me to the place to read about uninstalling unwanted items? For example with Andromeda I don't believe I want:

Stock Apps Included:

•Allshare

•gmail

•google search

•latitude

•navigation

•google sky map

•Samsung Apps

•memo

•places

•voice recorder

•talk

•voice search

•youtube

•Car Home

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n.d.:
I want apps but just not these,if that makes sense. It is easier for me to add and remove apps from the market then the ones included in a ROM. I am guessing this is because of my lack of knowledge with dev??
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
so you dont want apps that are a core part of android??

gmail, google search, navigation, google talk

do you even know what AppWidgetPicker is??

its not an app that you run, it is a way to streamline your 'add widget' list and organize them better....

so many apps tie together to create the user experience of having a smartphone...i just dont understand

if you dont want those things, download the rom, OPEN the zip file up with 7zip or your preferred archive tool and DELETE those apps out of /data/app and /system/app prior to flashing....

we didnt include 'bloat' items in Andromeda, like what come with stock ATT roms, all items included are there to give you a better 'out of the box' experience without the need to download alternatives if they arent needed. nothing included is a resource hog nor does it eat up precious performance...

This is some of the info that will help me. Thanks for the post. I know just enough about phones, android et al to mess things up. But now with the info on this forum I can use the AIO tool box and play with various ROMs. So far Andromeda has been my favorite. It has a quirk or two but all in all my favorite. My next step will be to better understand tweaking ROMs (stock calendar and email doesn't work well with Yahoo but I may just change everything to Google like it should be. I like the Dolphin browser and a couple other personal preferences)and then dabble in the themes maybe. Thanks to all for giving me feedback and criticism!! :cool:

anyone here get acer launcher to install on the G2 on CM7?

if so, what apk did you use? does it FC on you all the time?
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] jpcdeux:
Its called Liquid Villian find it in the Dev section.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] takram:
I don't have experience with it, but this was the only thread I was able to find on XDA through search (that had any sort of recent replies). Did a search in the thread so I wouldn't have to read through the 10 pages and it doesn't seem like there was anyone reporting in from the G2/Desire Z camp to give success or failure stories, so you'll have to test it out for yourself.

The only other alternative I can think of right now is mentioned by joe3681 above me in the Liquid Villain thread. I flashed the rom when it was first released and gave it a couple of minutes, but it was a drastic change and I missed the features/familiarity of CM7, so I went back. It definitely isn't CM7 if that's what you're looking to keep, but if the launcher is something that's really that important to you, then this may be your only option. The dev doesn't seem to be actively providing updates to it as it seems stable/nothing to update, but a gingerbread port does seem to be in the works/planned.

It should also be noted that there is now an option in CM7 to have the status/notification bar at the bottom (under tablet options in CM settings). This might give you a slight compromise.

Hope I helped a little bit.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] tackleberry:
i know that...but lv does not like my phone...already been there and done that :(
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] tackleberry:
yea it does say not installed if you try to use the apk to install it. im guessing there is a compatibility issue
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] takram:
Launchers aren't typically listed in the app drawer. Once it's installed, push the home softkey and it will ask you what you want to use to complete the action. Set it to use the launcher of your choice as default. The same goes for ADW, LauncherPro, Go Launcher, and more I'm sure. Go Launcher does have an icon I believe though.

Or are you saying that the apk fails to install altogether?
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] tackleberry:
Yes I am saying it does not install at all
