I got bored... So I googled things to do with a HTC Hero.... Found theunlockr then got pointed to xda.... Found out someone had stolen my username but I tried the username with my normal password and it worked :p
[Off-topic] BeerChameleon:
My first smartphone was the vogue and i enjoyed it how it was and knew about xda very little and found a way to stream radio and xm radio on here and havent visited it since 2008.

i then got a tp2 and actually was fine with it until i heard about wm 6.5 was out on custom clean roms so i finally got up the courage and time to read on how to unlock and flash roms.

i was addictted to mighty roms over at ppcgeeks and loved the taskbar mods and all the fun stuff such as getting rid of crapware that sprint put on it and made it better and had 6.5.5 a few months later and enjoyed it til i heard the first fast android phone with keyboard came to sprint and had all the hardware specs on it : The Epic 4g, unlock htc phones it didnt leave any feutures out of it and im loving it 7 months later.

i read up on rooting and rooted and started flashing roms and mods and been even more happy, this phone can do it all.

I also have a jailbroken ipod touch,

So it all started with my tp2 getting irritating waiting for sprint to deliver an update to 6.5 and the ugly colors on the interface of sense

Started with my linux based moto ROKR E8. What a pos that phone was, but i loved it. I made it do anything my friends iphone could do, basicly turning it into a monster that used wayyy to much power. Then i got a motorola defy. Flashed some of Higgsy and HandlerExploits roms. That wasnt enough for me though. I tried updating to 2.2 and kept getting stat. 7 error. Then i ended up here.

My first question is regarding adding patched, i wish to add the stock fonts patch but have no idea how to do this :confused:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] halostar:
Hello all,

First, I should say I'm a noob to the forums, so greetings! I have found lots of useful information on these forums, so hopefully someone can answer my question. I recently flashed eVoKINGS UNleashed Ultra Blakk R3 to my Evo. I added the mods from the Gravity on Ice mod. So far, all the mods work EXCEPT for the Gravity on Ice custom icons. Pardon me if this was a noob thing to do, but I tried flashing it first. But then, I read about Desktop Visualizer off the market. So, I downloaded that and tried replacing icons using that. However, even that is not working.

I'm a bit flustered here and am not sure what to do to get these awesome icons working on my phone.

Can anyone help me out here? Big thanks to whoever can!:D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LouRock:
1. Download an app from the market called folder organizer. They offer a free version that will allow you to change all the icons and folders you want.

2. Copy all the glass icons to a folder on your SD Card.

3. Unmount your phone from the computer

4. Open Folder Organizer

5. Click on apps.

6. To the right of the app will be a down arrow. Click it and choose Icon

7. Select 'Android Image Gallery'

8. Select 'Gallery'

9. Find the folder that contains the glass icons and select it

10. Select the icon you wish to use with this application.

11. Exit out of folder organizer

Now add it to your home screen:

1. Long press on home screen and select Shortcut

2. Select Folder Organizer item

3. Select Apps

4. Choose the application that you modified

Thats it! customized.

You can do this with labels and add your apps to the labels. Then on the second part of the instruction select Folder Organizer link instead and add the custom folder with your custom apps as well.

Folder Organizer kicks butt and has a tone of options. It also allows you to change the mail icon which used to change back to default with other apps like better cut.

hope this helps.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] mirzahodzic:
...on our Galaxy S,...

... But where is the Gingerbread launcher?!

Let me explain.

I've tried all launchers,free,paid,good,bad... But my favourite and best is the one from nexus s,or the "real" gingerbread... And I had it!... on froyo... And it worked perfectly! But when I upgraded to gb(jvb) and installed all the gb launchers I could find,they worked,but not perfectly,on the app drawer,all of the apps are blurry! And thats really bad...

Why is that? Is it maybe becouse the market versions of gb launcher are compiled for older versions of android? Is there a way to compile a version only for 2.3? would that solve blurry ugly icons? Is there a way to install the apk from nexus s? Does anyone have any idea how to solve this? I would really appriciate any answer/help. And please,dont try to tell me: "try adw/lp/go/ or any.other launcher" :-D o_O
