[Nook Color Themes and Apps] sisterchick:
UPDATE June 16, 2011: Two more Metamorphs for Nook Color are now ready: Dark Elegance and WinterMix Dark. Screenshots and downloads can be found at www.sisterbird.com/android-themes.

I am updating and tweeking my Metamorph themes for Nook Color. The first to debut is Orange Slice Metamorph for Nook Color. Running great on CM7. Includes themed Settings, Framework and SystemUI - including Notification Bar soft key icons.

Install either via Metamorph or make a flashable zip with undo using Zip Themer (recommended). Both Metamorph and ZipThemer are available on the Market. Be sure to update Edify in Zip Themer before making your zip otherwise you will have strange spacing between your soft key icons.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] philburkhardt:
Very nice! Do you plan on tweaking any of your other themes for the Nook Color?

...your leather theme would look great on a Nook :).
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] luciferii:
its a nice concept but needs alot of work..
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] sisterchick:
Do you have any suggestions of what you would like changed? It seems relatively complete. I prefer to keep it simple so it is easy to change without reflashing the ROM. I have no plans to theme the app icons. That is best done through launcher themes to taste.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] sisterchick:
I'm playing with others. There's a significant amount of rebuilding involved. Nook Color uses mostly an MDPI resolution, but tweaks have allowed using HDPI stat_sys notification icons. Takes some work to rebuild those icons and remix.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] luciferii:
sorry, it was my fault.. i used the wrong edify settings in zipthemer and it left "gaps" inbetween the tablet tweeks softkeys. it is a very nice theme
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] sisterchick:
Ahhh...I did that the first time too. I just updated the OP to include a reminder to update Edify. Thanks for letting me know!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] sisterchick:
More themes for Nook Color

I've updated Dark Elegance and WinterMix Dark for the Nook Color too. Screen shots and downloads can be found at www.sisterbird.com/android-themes[/URL:)]
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ace7196:
Looks pretty good, but could you remove those splits between the icons in the status bar (home, back, etc). They look a big ugly/out of place.

Also: Yeah G1!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] sisterchick:
Update edify

Do you have more space between them than I do in the screenshot? If so, I suspect you did not update edify in zip themer before you made your theme. Do that and all will be well. The soft key icons are sized the same as stock - 60 pixels wide. Much closer together and you would have a hard time using the soft keys.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] neoblood3d:
Looks pretty good.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] luciferii:
i lost my original edify scirpt updater for the nook when i flashed cm7 nightly 106.can anyone provide me with em? ive googled for 2 hours without success.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] sisterchick:
For ZipThemer? It can update to the appropriate edify script from an existing ROM zip on your SD card. Choose Update Edify from the menu and select a Nook ROM zip.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] luciferii:
i used to have a proper edify script zip for zipthemer.. ive tried using cm7 nook and manuelnooter and neither of them work.. they both leave the spaces inbetween the softkeys
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] sisterchick:
That's odd...I've not see that issue. What version of CM7 are you running and where do you have it installed? Internal or SD card?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] luciferii:
cm7 nightly 107 with dals 6/18 kernel running on emmc.. im running the matted blues theme for the theme choser, dont know if that matters.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] sisterchick:
I suspect you are right...having a theme applied when creating a new theme caused some problems. I'd recommend creating your flashable without another theme applied.

On another noted, I'm testing Green REVO and LG Revolution themes for Nook Color right now. Will post in a day or two.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] matt314159:
I LOVE the clock in this theme, is there a widget apk maybe i can grab to just get the clock by chance? I've got my NC customized pretty well but I've been trying to find a clock that goes with my setup, and this looks perfect.

[Nexus One General] ROM_Guest:
Hi guys,

I recently bought a Mytouch 4g for $470 shipped from Newegg (should have bought brand new from Ebay in retrospect, bur was worried about the warranty/exchange ability).

Anyways, I spent about $20 before receiving it on a clarivue screen protector, and TPL Case.

I didn't like the phone for a couple of reasons. For one, the weight and screen couldnt compare to my nexus one.

The mytouch 4g also has a few quality control issues that can vary, so I returned mine for a brand new one from Newegg the other day. Should be getting a brand new (?) replacement over the next few days.

I found a guy with a nexus one with a small corner ding who might be willing to trade. I told him to look at the ebay prices on both phones and get back to me. On ebay, a Brand new Mytouch 4g goes for $346 shipped. A brand new Nexus one goes for about $264 + shipping costs (to be determined).

He's offering me $75 for the exchange/trade. Good deal? Would you do it?
[Nexus One General] Neitmrh15:
Do you want a front facing camera for video chat?
[Nexus One General] josemedina1983:
I really wouldn't. just root it and throw a stock rom I don't see a reason for trading it. Right Now you can get a Nexus one for 250 or less.
[Nexus One General] ROM_Guest:
Thanks guys.

I don't really need a front facing camera, but my nexus one's camera (no bar code scanning even), and proximity sensor don't work. You're right $250 is not that bad a price to save up for if i'm hurting for a nice nexus one.

I think I might keep it. I get the mytouch replacement tomorrow in the mail. There are two issues with this phone's build quality that question rooting. I rooted my previous one in order to Terminal emulate a command which tells me what kind of EMMC chip it has. I had the bad one, which continuous Romming might brick. speculative.

I also had the bad screen, which is the taiwan screen (surprisingly). It looks washed out. Apparently some come with a china screen thats more akin to the nexus 1s SLCD in quality.

They actually have a poll for your interest, on the HTC Glacier (mytouch4g) forum, asking what combination of chip and LCD people have. Its a real crapshoot.

Will see tomorrow what I get. Either way, I think i bought a losing product here in terms of return on investment. Should have bought an ebay N1.
[HTC Sensation] larsn84:
Hi

I've been testing and comparing some of the top candidates og android phones on the market now.

The competitors are: Samsung Galaxy SII, Lg Optimus 2x (CM7) and HTC Sensation

And I must say, I'm pretty disappointed with HTC Sensation so far. Don't know if I'm just unlucky, or if we should expect an update on this in the future, but the GPU is way behind in comparison to the two others.

www.antutu.com benchmark results:

4578 - Samsung Galaxy SII

4456 - LG Optimus 2x

3758 - HTC Sensation

Goint through the details, the most worrying is HTC Sensation scores low on 2d/3d graphics, about half of what LG Optimus 2x scores, which is the winner, with a total of 297 + 350 in graphics. Sensation scores about 300 in total.

Qaudrant benchmark goes like this:

3678 - Samsung Galaxy SII

3120 - LG optimus 2x

2170 - HTC Sensation

Basically Samsung wins because of scoring higher on both CPU and memory (1gb ram)

LG Optimus 2x got he best GPU and Database IO (data transfer rate)

HTC Sensation is just way behind

What is your results? Is it just me, or could we hope for an update?

I have heard rumors about HTC Sensation only running on half of the kernels ind the GPU, is this true?
[HTC Sensation] ImHuge07:
I heard it scores so low because of the Sense 3.0 requiring so much to run.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
Maybe HTC should start concerning themselves more with function rather than form. I think everyone hear would rather have a faster device with less eye candy. If you look at what Samsung had done since the Behold II they have progressively toned Touch Wiz down with each iteration. I just hope we get the boot loader unlocked quick.
[HTC Sensation] pdxrealtor:
I hated touchwiz, and still hate Samsung.

Always have liked the sense. To.each their own.
[HTC Sensation] redbullcat:
Sensation has such low benchmarks because it has qHD screen and Sense 3.0. Take Sense 3.0 away and this thing'll fly!

As I said in my own Sense 3.0 thread, having Sense 3.0 and qHD screen beats having high benchmarks. Benchmarks don't mean ANYTHING unless they're running the same UI overlay. Put them on stock/CyanogenMod and the Sensation will be a lot lot faster! :)
[HTC Sensation] ericc191:
I agree with this. Sense requires a lot of ram and so does the qHD screen. That's the only reason benchmarks are so low. Get some stock GB on here and you'll see the difference. It also explains why the chip is clocked at 1.2GHz. I wonder how much further it can be pushed, though.
[HTC Sensation] redbullcat:
I've heard the chip is underclocked to 1.2ghz to save battery...it apparently can go to 1.5ghz, at least.
[HTC Sensation] mysterioustko:
If you don't like sense then why buy the Sensation? That's like buying car that's a stick and then complaining because it's not an automatic. Yes sense is on the phone, yes sense may cause lower benchmarks, yes it's heavily intergrated. If those things bother you then perhaps purchasing a sensation was a mistake...not trying to start an argument, but really it illogical to complain about something you knew going in was a core part of the phone. I don't like touchwiz...so I don't purchase devices with touchwiz on them...it wouldn't make sense for me to buy a phone with touchwiz knowing I don't like it and then complaining about it.
[HTC Sensation] LittleMerc:
Some ignorant people just don't get the fact. HTC had been advertised about Sense 3.0 for Sensation and we all do know it is a core part of the phone. So don't get the phone if you are for benchmarks isn't it? this sound silly, doesn't it?
[HTC Sensation] larsn84:
Ah! Of course... the screen res is higher, that should influence on the benchmark for sure. Moto Xoom scores low also, but that too, has a higher res.

Im just concerned if it is still scoring lower when on stock. Does anyone have a true benchmark of the Adreno220, which is within the Sensation?

The benchmarks I found on the internet, the Adreno220/M8660 beats the crap out of LG optimus 2x and SGSII.

Anyone know if there is a truth to the "half cores only support" yet?
[HTC Sensation] redbullcat:
When we get s-off, we'll have some true benchmarks for all devices. Optimus 2x, Galaxy S II, Sensation, and possibly Moto Atrix. Put them all on latest release of CyanogenMod7 and benchmark them using a range of apps.
[HTC Sensation] Kit:
Actually its mainly because HTC chose to use old technology and use 2 second gen snapdragon chips which use the arm 8 instruction set, instead of using a cpu based on the new arm 9 technology which is what every other new dual core cpu is set up with.
[HTC Sensation] familyhousing:
As other people have stated, this view is nonsense. Scorpion is a parallel development to A9. It has advantages and disadvantages in comparison.
[HTC Sensation] Kit:
lol if you want to try and call it nonsense... I'm really just trying to help educate you and explain, but you can continue to think that if you wish :)

Scorpion incorporates some ARM 9 features, its basically like ARM 8 and a half and that is being optimistic -_-'
[HTC Sensation] mpjohns3:
Your post is wildly inaccurate... First of all there is no ARM 8 instruction set. All A8, A9, and Scorpion processors use the ARMv7 instruction set. Second, Scorpion is Qualcomm's own architecture, it is not based on the A8 design, they created their own design from scratch. It is not as simple as A9 > A8 for this reason. The Scorpion architecture implements features that are not available on A8 but are available on A9. The main difference between the Scorpion and the A9 is the number of pipeline stages. The Scorpion has 13 while the A9 has 8. This is positive and negative for both, as more pipeline stages improves throughput, but is more costly if an instruction has to be aborted and the pipeline flushed.

I have gotten a lot of responses telling me that the Scorpion is based off A8 and tweaked. This is not correct. If it were simply tweaked, it would not be able to have a clock over 1 GHz without overclocking, as that is the limitation of the A8 architecture. It also could not support dual cores, again a limitation of A8. The Scorpion also has partial support of out-of-order processing. This is impossible on an A8 processor, but is fully supported on an A9.

You are correct in saying that every other dual core is based off an A9 processor because the A9 is the only design you can license from ARM that can support dual cores. The only alternative is for a company to license the instruction set itself and design their own architecture (Qualcomm's approach). I should also point out that the A9 processors are synchronous, while the MSM8260 is asynchronous, allowing separate clock speeds and voltages to each core, which can greatly increase battery performance (especially on processes that only utilize 1 core).

I will agree that A9 is more advanced than Scorpion, but it is not by nearly as much as the "Scorpion is A8" argument would indicate. The MSM8260 can also support clock speed up to 1.5 GHz, so the Sensation can be overclocked without actually overclocking the processor.
[HTC Sensation] mysterioustko:
Exactly! I don't understand the logic of people that purchase a device that they know has certain features and then complain about it. That's like buying a phone with a slide out keyboard and then complaining saying you don't like the fact that it has a slide out keyboard. My thing is, Sense is not a surprise. Everyone knew going in that it was there, and they know what it is and how it works. If certain people don't like that, then they probably shouldn't have bought the phone. Doesn't make sense to complain about getting exactly what you were paying for.
[HTC Sensation] familyhousing:
Wow, informative post. That should stop the A9 >A8 (Scorpion) because it's a bigger number rubbish, for a while.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] nips_uk:
Yesterday i flashed my wife and my phones with MP7. We both have HTC HD2 T-mobile editions. First i flased with XBmod ROM and found while it was brilliant, Chinese isnt supported.

We installed about 100 apps from the marketplace that allowed us to input chinese, but everytime we sent messages to each other, all we got was a message with some characters, some weird symbols and lots of squares.

As we both live in China, its kinda importants for us to be able to read and write Chinese.

Previously we used WM6.5.5 and we had to install two .cab files (1 for the chinese font, and 1 for the input keyboard) I know MP7 is different and uses .xap files (hense its not backwards compatable), but ive seen on the 'net and here that the chinese fonts are in MP7, but as they are 14mb, most chefs take them out.

Does anyone know of a ROM that has the fonts is embedded or is there a way i can get a modded ROM and put the fonts in myself?

Thanks in advance!

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] rlydiard:
For what it is worth, I was in a public relations office in Taipei that represents Microsoft Taiwan. One of the managers of a Microsoft account has an HTC HD7. Microsoft Taiwan sent him a program that allows him to read and write Traditional Chinese on his HD7. I am not sure if it would support Simplified Chinese, or if it would work on an HD2 with WP7, but you might try contacting either Microsoft Taiwan or Microsoft China and ask them about your problem. Otherwise, it seems that your only course is to wait until the Mango update is ported to HD2, as I understand that update does support Chinese.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] nips_uk:
Thanks for that info, ill check it out. We are currently using the "i'm Chinese app". Its ok, but to write an email, sms or search the 'net, you have to open the app, type what you want, then it opens the normal web or sms or email, insert the chinese, then send! i do miss the keyboard from WM6.5 i had!

My next question is trying to get Windows phone device manager to work! i installed it (as admin), plug my phone in, close Zune and wait. WPDM says "connecting to Nips HD2", so it knows my phone is there. It then says "Nips HD2 plugged into USB", but doesnt show the total storage, cell network or battery info and when i click on sonething in the list (manage apps, explore files etc) it says connecting for about 5 mins, then fails with "couldnt connect to Nips HD2". My phone is hacked(?) with chevron, i checked. WPDM also seems to fail to install touchxplorer on my phone. (on the WPMD post it says it should auto install the first time you use WPMD)

Ive read all the pages in the XDA DEV post about WPDM and nothing has worked, ive tried their website, no luck. Ive even contacted themm but no reply. Do i need to give them a donation to make it work, or am i missing something and being a complete noob?

Any suggestions and/or abuse would be great!

Thanks!
