try espier launcher found in android market!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Dousan:
I'll chip in aswell if anyone should've missed it, you really should try Espier launcher :p lol :D
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] hexen2006:
OMFG, it even have the receivedmessages and missed calls quantities notification on the icons/shortcuts as IOS, Even the calendar day number and name change every day as well, I'm gladly surprised, you can have 2 launchers

(GO launcher for me and the irespi for My girl )

Trying to make Android look like iOS is blasphemy. Android was designed to be an alternative to that monopolized iSheep crap, not a clone.

Yup I agree, anyway, it is cool to be able to disguise our androids as iphones, an shove it on the iphone users faces, as they cant disguise their phones in any way
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] memela:
Espier Launcher is the best and it's free but if they add widgets will be the best
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] hexen2006:
I think it also needs more iphone. Icons, or a least an option to manually assign the icon. (i.e. Pictures, YouTube, videos, etc...) just to have a better disguise
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Clienterror:
I'm pretty sure you're not going to fool anyone into thinking your XP is an iPhone by changing a couple icons.

You'd be amazed.

...I've had a SmartQ V7, and currently have the Herotab C8, a Motion M1400 and a Windows 7 N450 Tablet... and without fail, someone always asks "Hey is that the iPad?" when I'm using them.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] hexen2006:
I'm not trying to fool anybody into think I have an iphone, I just want to be able to mimic the iphone look and feel, so I can shove that into my iphone fans friends... Hehehe... If I wanted an iphone I would have bought it... But it is not for me.

I had someone ask if I'm using a	"PS3 phone" once (the console was so weak they made it mobile already, lol?), but never an iPhone. My sister has had tons of people think her Samsung is an iPhone though.

That thing really looks like an iphone, it is not that powerful tho.

Even more than the outer appearance, Touch Wiz 3 had lots of similarities with iOS. The stock first firmware of the Galaxy S and the iPhone 3GS were hard to distinguish.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] hexen2006:
Hehehe, I gues that's why Samsung is getting sued by apple... anyway... I used to love samsung and hate apple... but know thanks to the PLAY my heart is with SONY Ericcson... well I mean SONY after the purchase process is finished!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] captain67:
It's really ridiculous how Apple keeps suing everybody. They patented slide to unlock which is bull****, since they didn't invent it. HP ipaq handhelds had that feature back in 2003..

Apple steals tons of things from everybody else, and they dare to complain?

I'm glad Jobs is dead. His business practices were appalling, and his monopoly on mp3 players ruined things for far better manufacturers. Google turned that around with phones, at least.

That's what I'm kinda thinking also lol.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] captain67:
I wouldn't normally wish death upon anybody, or speak ill if the dead, but the world is better off without him. Do you have any idea how many people have died because they were robbed, and beaten to death because some brainwashed teenager wanted their iPhone/iPod?

It was a serious problem a few years back. There were quite a few newspaper articles about how iPod-crazed teenagers were jumping people and putting them in the hospital. I personally had a friend who had a knife held to his neck by a guy who wanted his iPhone.

And just for reference, I was living in a wealthy city, not a ghetto. That kind of thing hadn't been common there until then.

LOL... Apple fail! They sued everyone, but motorola had kicked their ass in germany!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] cyrusalmighty:
I dont like apple, because of their development being closed sourced & that they copyright everything and are exceptionally GREEDY wanting every penny for themselves, locking down the products even to the person who bought and owns their product. Whooo.*breath*

And even their Market (itunes) doesnt allow anyone to profit from creating/developing unlike the Almighty Droid market! But I admit that Google needs a competitor to not become an Apple. We cannot have good without evil*over the top*lol. Steve Jobs- R.i.p.

And it is greed that got people beat up for iPhones and Ipods not the device. People always find something to fight over. Jordans, jewelry, even Androids.lol. Seriously we need competition & Apple made some decent stuff in the past (before we realized they still controlled the device after we bought it & that customizing was out of the question.lol. )

But I do still have a Ipod for direct playback control off a car system.(Android needs this), because other then that my ipod is nothing more than a HDD for transporting movies to my PS3.

Battlefield....b*tch.

All of a sudden, my tablet is going crazy. Never had a wifi prob before. But since latest update it has taken a while to connect to the internet.

Then last night and into today, it is connecting/disconnecting every 2 seconds. It never locks in and stays with my router. I have to shut down and when it comes back on its good. But as soon as it goes to sleep it can never reconnect with a hard shutdown.

Anyone have any idea or similar problem?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] HubbertTyler:
I had a similar problem. It ended up not being my transformer but my router, turned it off and back on. Smooth sailing since.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rpavich:
In my experience, that's a sign that there is something corrupted in the configuration...credentials or whatever...

Even if you KNOW the information....do this:

Delete the current connection and recreate it in your TF...

that should take care of it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] npompei:
So you are both saying to delete the router, turn the router off/on and then reconnect?

I will give that a whirl...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Pierre118:
Did you install the Google Maps update? Version 5.10.0 form 8 september? I read that this update is the problem of the continuing connect/disconnect.

I'm pretty pissed that the amaze 4g is coming out in October..just got my sensation nd the amaze is a sensation with the little extra it needed..feel free to vent
[HTC Amaze 4G] gbzbar:
Vent about what? Four months after the amaze comes out, there will be another flagship phone... I guarantee it.

If you ever buy technology so that you can own the best and fastest, whether it's a phone or computer or something else, then dont bother buying. You will always be disappointed. Instead, maybe just use your sensation and be happy with all that it is and all that it can do.
[HTC Amaze 4G] GideonX:
No, it's a phone, you'll get over it just like everyone else.
[HTC Amaze 4G] bonkasnucca:
i mean ill be good..just wanted to see others oppinions..the reason i was pissed is that the only things that i didnt like about the sensation were..that it wud have been perfect with a gig of ram and a 1 or 2 megapixel camera..well thats exactly what they did with the amaze and it has the same body too..think im bout to flip my sensation while i have the chance
[HTC Amaze 4G] Flippy125:
No matter what phone you buy, it will be outdated within a month or two
[HTC Amaze 4G] undercover:
+1

Sensation is still very young. While we can't have HW limitations changed, there can and will be things done to work around it (ok, not camera, but how many people actually use it). RAM is enough, especially with all the optimisations lately. Few more quirks to work out and Sensation will be almost perfect. Who's to say that Amaze won't have more problems than Sensation?

So no, i'm not pissed off at all. Oh, and Amaze is UGLY.
[HTC Amaze 4G] bonkasnucca:
I'm pretty sure its gonna run like butter with a LIL more RAM nd sense 3.5..cuz with the specs the sensation has..lag shouldnt exist
[HTC Amaze 4G] kevinliu2336:
And its not really the biggest jump either, i mean

1.5GHz dual-core CPU(That's what we have just under clocked to 1.2),

1GB of RAM(dont realy need that much and were just off buy around 256 mb),

4.3-inch qHD display(got it),

8MP rear camera(got it) ,

2MP front(ok this is and upgrade but who uses the front camera extensivly:rolleyes:)

dual-LED flash(got it).

So all they did was not under-clock the cpu, raise ram a tiny bit, make the front camera 2mp and made the phone ugly:D.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Warhero141:
Doesn't matter that much anyway. This phone will be overshadowed sooner or later by quad-core soc's like the tegra 3.

Every phone is outdated specwise around max. 4-5 months after their release.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Divine flaw:
im happy with my sensation. and as mentioned above there is really that big of improvements on the amaze. and also the sensation as is with all phones will be outdated a few months after its release.

if you are really upset with the the release of a newer phone so close to the release of the sensation, than go out and buy an iphone. atleast there hardware dont improve so quickly and you wont be so upset after buying it and a few months later they release a better one cause it wont happen so close after its initial release.
[HTC Amaze 4G] frenchie746:
Sure I'm a little miffed about the specs, but honestly our phones will blow the amaze out of the water until they get cm7 on it. After buying the sensation I decided I'm not buying a new phone until it can be completely hacked s-off/rooted ect.. And an official CM build is a available for it. Otherwise the phone just feels like crap despite the specs due to sense/bloatware.
[HTC Amaze 4G] happyendin21:
I am only mad about this because i have had 6 sensations and each had major issues weather hardware or software and at times each have been practically useless.... If they took the time to assure this wouldn't happen I wouldn't mind so much. However, that hasn't been Tue case... So I will be ditching my sensation as soon as the amaze is available.

Also correct me if I am wrong but doesn't the amaze also have a 42 mbps radio and also built in 16gb storage amongst the already mentioned specs.

I love HTC but they really let me down with this phone........

[HTC Amaze 4G] sn0warmy:
If the release of the Amaze 4G pisses you off, don't ever buy a new Macbook Pro, or any Apple computer for that matter.

Dropping $2k+ on a new computer just to watch a new version come out a month later with more ram, faster processor, better graphics card, longer battery life, wings, beer dispenser, and a $100 bill printer built in will really make you want to punch babies.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rawrfische:
Haha you really can't win no matter what you do. Buy "THE" Android phone today, it's old hat in four months.

It was the exact opposite when I was on the Apple ship. Buy an iPhone today then wait a year or more only to find out the next big super secret release is some marginal upgrade. See iPhone 3GS to iPhone 4. Worth another two-year contract? I think not.

I'm not one to upgrade at every new release, but they say craigslist and ebay are good ways to get rid of old phones. :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] Lysiana:

[HTC Amaze 4G] Waveblade:
Not particularly as I bought mine out of contract. If you buy on contract yeah you might be a tad 'upset'
[HTC Amaze 4G] alyoder:
Yup. If you're buying a piece of technology so that you can feel good about having the "best" you're pretty thick.

You purchase something you feel delivers the best quality you can afford at the moment you are ready to purchase, and then enjoy it for what it is.

Sensation was that for me. Best choice for me at my moment of purchase, and I'm still quite happy about my choice.
[HTC Amaze 4G] daewond3r:
What's really intrigued me about the Amaze is the camera and the data speed capability. Really though, I cannot stand Sense and that camera is attached to it at the hip. I'd drop Sense for CM7/AOSP-based rom in a second, losing one of the key features that sold me. As for the data speed, the more I think about it, the more silly it seems. I don't stream movies or anything like that. The speeds my Sensation gets is very suitable for my life right now.

Also, I also saw comparison pics with a Sensation XE and it's a bit thicker. I can't rock a phone without a case, so that would mean the Amaze would be a pocket buster with one on. My Sensation with an Incipio NGP case is chunky enough for me.
[HTC Amaze 4G] azsl1326:
The Amaze has HSPA+ which will enable it to get faster download speeds (up to 41mbps-in theory) than the Sensation.
[HTC Amaze 4G] undercover:
Cool! Now show me ONE network which provides such speeds.

By the time networks will, amaze will be long forgotten as outdated model.

Is it true that neither Barnacle nor Wifi Tether works with any of the gingerbread leaks? If so, are there any wireless tether apps that do work?

Thanks in advance!
[Verizon Droid Charge] cueball2010:
There is always PDAnet which works with the GB 2.3.4.

I'm tethered as I type this with Barnacle running EP1W 2.3.4.

So I say No!:D
[Verizon Droid Charge] billku:
Wow, which version of EP1W are you running (bloated, deodexed, etc.)? Did you have to do anything special to make Barnacle work? All I've been reading about is how none of these wireless apps work with Gingerbread, that's great news!

[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
Gents, I've goofed something up again and humbly request your assistance.

Last night I installed Metamorph, swapped out a few notification icons (Wifi, battery, etc), did a full Ti free backup (not Nandroid) and everything seemed to be happy. This morning I noticed the background color of the status bar could be also be changed and gave the 50% transparent bar a whirl.

A random reboot or two occurred which quickly started me looking for an undo procedure. I had some time (10 minutes?) in between random crashes but it eventually began boot looping.

I have no problem going into the startup menu and doing a factory reset if that's the easiest way to correct the situation, but I want to be sure this will not make things worse. I have learned another lesson; please advise.
[Motorola Droid 3] TheDeathly:
Meta morph probably mucked with framework-res.apk and blur probably didnt quite like it or something, one idea would be to use

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1255198

and flash over /system with the system.img and see if that helps

(only if your running USA d3)
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
Its a USA D3, rooted stock firmware, bloatware removed, running Go Launcher EX with a bunch of app substitutions. I was finally happy with everything just before it started looping (though it could have used a few widgets).

I'm working through the "[FIX] Phone Bootlooping?" thread now. I'm hoping to keep as much of my setup and learn something along the way (pushing files), but figured I could use the factory reset as a last resort if I goof things up further.
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
I have completed the "[FIX] Phone Bootlooping?" process.

Do I need find a stock/matching version of framework-res.apk or are they all created equal?

Does a simple "adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk" do the trick?
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
I found a system dump at the following link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1164736

Another site indicated pushing the framework-res.apk will fix the issue (though I presume it clears all my custom status bar icons :( ).

Can someone confirm the above link's D3 framework-res.apk will be compatible?
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
I get as far as "shell@cdma_solana:/$". "su" outputs:

Permission denied

[1] Segmentation fault su

I used the one click method to root the phone and followed the bootlooping fix mentioned above. Any ideas?
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
Sorry, talking myself through this...

Went back through the process and gained root@cdma_solana:/#.

One step closer. Just gotta figure out the command...
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system made things writable.

I pushed the file, the phone rebooted... rebooted again... rebooted again...

No dice. Any suggestions? Factory reset?
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
Once again, factory reset to the rescue. I lost a bunch of stuff but its functional. The downfall is I no longer have the Backup Assistant to do it all automatically. Gotta go fix that....
[Motorola Droid 3] bgdwiepp:
Do you need to set permissions on the framework when you push it?
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
I didn't change any permissions beyond mounting and making the system folder writable.
[Motorola Droid 3] NyghtGT:
Good thing to know...make sure when you are applying metamorphs they are for Gingerbread and not Froyo ;)
[Motorola Droid 3] wootizzle:
I just figured out I had ran (I believe) a froyo version of the notification bar.. Went back to do it for gingerbread. I'm not sure if any real damage is done or not. Phone is fine but I know the version that wasn't gingerbread changed the framework my wallpaper was returned to stock and I had the old market. The market updated itself but Idk what else may have been done.
[Motorola Droid 3] NyghtGT:
Wouldn't worry too much about that instance...same happened with me and im still good.
[Motorola Droid 3] wootizzle:
True? I figured it may have been like a downgrade.. I just wanna change my icons and the pressed state now. Then i'll chill til custom roms are possible.
[Motorola Droid 3] kshen1:
Is there a reason that I can change my battery icon but changing signal status, 3g icon, etc wont work?

Has anyone changed the notification background yet? I'm wanting to give it a whirl but am a little apprehensive, don't want to go through the trouble trying to fix a soft brick.
[Motorola Droid 3] wootizzle:
Yes. I have the bar changed and I saw someone changed the dropdown bg + battery icon. I think we need a thread for ppl to verify what metamorphs worked.
[Motorola Droid 3] kshen1:
how do you make the system folder writable?
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

The above command makes the system folder writable. My silly question of the day:

Do I need to issue a command to make it "non-writable" afterwards or is that accomplished by simply rebooting?
[Motorola Droid 3] Phibernaut:
Another oddity I've noticed is the status bar reports 10% less battery life than widgets and the System menu. My guess is its simply due to the way the mod rounds its numbers, but its annoying.
