[Motorola Droid X2] PotentChili:
Okay so I tried using the main SBF tutorial on the dev forum here and that SBF file didn't work for my Milestone X2. I'm pretty sure the main problem is that I'm on ACS (Alaska Communication Systems) and they're using 2.3.6 and probably some strange baseband versions. I got some "boot error 1" or something.

Anyway, I can't find a .sbf file for the ACS version of my phone. I was able to get the phone to boot again using this nTelos sbf, but I wasn't able to make calls or anything and saw a flashing triangle on my status bar.

So I guess a few questions I have are..

1) Does anyone know of a .sbf file that would work for this?

2) Can I somehow edit the nTelos ROM to work with my carrier?

3) If I take it to ACS will they be able to flash the sbf file for me? Or at least supply me with it....

4) Have I voided my warranty by doing this?

Any information is helpful. Thanks!

----------------------------------------------------

Figured I'd give everyone a quick update. I got the phone replaced. I went in and played dumb. She asked if I tried to root it and I said "what's that? I think I've got a virus!!" She had no idea how to fix it so she just gave me a rapid replacement.

I would really like to get the SBF files so I can at least try the 2.3.6 root and not worry about messing it up this time, but any company in Alaska is pretty hard to deal with for anything at all.

Thanks for your help XDA! I miss my Skyrocket :(
[Motorola Droid X2] CadenH:
I'm not sure if flashing a sbf file voids warranty. I imagine that it does because if done improperly or the sbf file is bad it could brick the phone. You're most likely going to have to take the phone to them.
[Motorola Droid X2] Xb0i:
you probably have to flash your phone in a similar method as a flash to cricket or metropc wireless except with your carriers information.
[Motorola Droid X2] PotentChili:
Not sure I fully understand, could you give a little more information please? Kind of nervous about taking it in.
[Motorola Droid X2] three west:
was it just the flashing triangle that means you have to activate the phone?

maybe that's all you need to do?
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
SBF files are given to us by Motorola. I wouldnt think you would void your warranty by using them unless its a leaked version or something. But even then, you could play stupid and just say you didnt know. They might buy it.
[Motorola Droid X2] king..kranium:
I mean if all else fails ask for an sbf from your service provider.

Glad you got it taken care of! Hopefully this time your modding goes smoother
[Motorola Droid X2] PotentChili:
Many thanks :) I shouldn't have made the attempt to downgrade first in the first place. This time I think I'll just attempt a simple root, which I've read worked for another ACS Milestone X2 2.3.6 user. After a root I can install ReRecovery and make a NANDROID backup right? Just in case anything goes wrong again? I haven't fully looked into it since I'm not rooted yet, but I'm assuming ReRecovery is just another thing similar to ClockWorkMod, which I have experience with. Too bad there are no 2.3.6 roms that I've seen :< I really hate this stock ROM and all its bloat.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Lol
[Motorola Droid X2] twobrare:
yes, I do not blame you. There are parts of the stock rom I like but generally I do not like it. I just rooted my phone 2.3.6 method and it worked. My only advice is to download Super user from the market before you start the process.

[Motorola Droid X2] PotentChili:
I do want to help, but do not want to risk anything until I can get my phone setup to a point where I can always flash back to this ACS 2.3.6. Is that essentially done once/if I get ReRecovery on the phone?
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
Yea RR should be flashed whenever you leave cwr!

You could test on your acs.

Trying to get hw virtual serial port to work see the cricket link. I had all this working back in july. Damn.

First of all, HUGE thanks to Taine0 for this marvelous thread. Without him, I wouldn't be here posting this!

However, his launcher was built for HDPI devices, and I know there are a lot of you out there cursing yourself for owning an MDPI phone (guilty). So that's where I come in. I've taken the time (not too much) to port his launcher to our MDPI screens (mostly 320x480 px). Here's what I've done:

~ Resized images so any size image you place in "/drawable-hdpi", the icon will look proper on your screen.

~ Fixed the shadow problem that many were having, such as kcls:

~ Re-adjusted the size of the dock, so now, the page indicators look just like Taine0's instead of awkwardly hovering too high.

~ Added some icons WHICH I DO NOT TAKE CREDIT FOR CREATING. ALL CREDIT GOES TO Jerry Leewright and Monty Desi

~ Added icon labels under each application in white text.

Hopefully you all enjoy this launcher which can be found attached at the bottom!

Some people have asked about using this launcher with a FUNCTIONING dock ( as in icons wont become super tiny, but on the other hand, page indicator wont be at bottom of screen). So Taine0 wrote an xml edit to change that for us MDPI phone-users.

If you appreciate my work, feel free to thank me :D

EDIT 5/16/12: NEW SCREENSHOT. NO OTHER CHANGES
[Android Themes] Taine0:
Nice one! Ha, I think we should put "MIUI Like launcher" in the title, probably would get more attention.

For me, this launcher is the smoothest one I've used, it's so nice even with awesome transitions.

Could You port that signa themed launcher?

[Android Themes] supetawesomedude:
Thanks! Okay ill do that when I get home. It is really smooth and the animations are awesome!!

I personally don't really love the sigma icons, but if you wanted to :

1.) Decompile the sigma apk and my apk

2.) Go into drawable-hdpi

3.) Copy all the icons from the sigma apk into mine.

4.) Recompile, sign, install!
[Android Themes] Unn113:
I'v got error while compiling. Could someone compile it for me?
[Android Themes] supetawesomedude:
Can you tell us the error? Or share your mod folder?
[Android Themes] rhythmyun:
ermm... sorry if i ask a noob question. I try to install this apk, but it failed. Saying, it is not installed in the end. I am using a galaxy ace with mdpi resolution. Is there anything i have to do other than just installing like usual apk ?

good work bro downloading and installing now :D

edit: hmmmm? Mine looks just like the nonedited version:o am I missing something? Someone gimme the wallpaper in the screeny?the dark grey one
[Android Themes] Askael:
please upload the CM theme.. o know this y mod but a wont it xD
[Android Themes] Sir_gpm:
Really nice work. Loved 360 now love it more!. :P
[Android Themes] supetawesomedude:
Sorry, maybe I forgot to mention, you have to uninstall your current version of 360 Launcher for it to work!

Really? when i had Taine0's mod installed, it looked terrible on my phone. if you want i can upload screenshots of what mine looked like. also, could you upload screenshots so i can see what yours looks like. the dark grey wallpaper can be found here: Just look in the description

I'm sorry I can't really understand what you're asking in the second half of your sentence. But this is the CM7 Theme Ice9

Thank you!!
[Android Themes] afrayed:
woooo!!! thanks man,you finally released this:)

questions:

1. if i want to replace some icons,what should be the sizes?

2. and for screen indicators,what should be the size?and its name?

3. are te shadows already applied by default? or should i put shadows on my custom icons?

thanks man^^,keep sharing:)
[Android Themes] supetawesomedude:
No problem, glad you enjoyed it :D

1. Same size as I used I think (118x120) but im sure similar sizes would work fine.

2. "default_indicator.png" & "default_indicator_current" Same image size, other wise it might look too big/small compared to the icons.

3. Shadows are applied as part of the launcher, so no you don't have to put them on each individual icon ;)
[Android Themes] afrayed:
thank,i think i got it,lol..

been lurking around on DA and here,watchin out for your release,haha..
[Android Themes] -Grift-:
O_O mine looks something like this nothing has been changed still got the default icons and totally wrong sized dock too small (damn small)

Please upload your version CM theme of topic, I know that it is modified in the status bar..

Sry for my Eng )))

[Android Themes] xxxMADxxx:
N this my screenshot from my galaxy ace
[Android Themes] supetawesomedude:
I'm sorry, I can't see what your screen looks like unless you upload your own screenshot :(

The dock is not supposed to fit icons in it. The idea is by Taine0.

I really don't see why you're getting different screenshots. Do you all have 320x480 devices? I dont see why bs828 has a very messed up screen :O madxxxpmc's looks correct.
[Android Themes] afrayed:
no problems here..everything looks fine on my lg optimus p500..

but i think some people forgot to remove those dock icons,just maybe:D

@OP

will you update your mod?cause taine0 has a new one,i think he disabled the dock,and the icons can be placed at the bottom..well i hope you do so:)
[Android Themes] supetawesomedude:
Thanks! Yeah, I think some people believe the dock is actually supposed to be used as a dock. :D

Unless Taine0 updates his launcher to something that I personally want, I will not change the coding or much in this app. In his newest release, he removed the icon shadow (which i will NEVER do) and rearranged the workspace (but since i use my phone's screens differently, i dont want) and i believe that he changed this app drawer to the vertical icon grid, but i cant figure that out :( .
[Android Themes] afrayed:
oh i see..the only thing im after,is the grid layout..personally i like the horizontal:)

imma post my screens here later..

gonna stick with this launcher,loooong time!!lol:D
[Android Themes] Pseudonym:
If you don't mind can I ask what font was used in that screenshot and what is that widget. Thanks! :D
[Android Themes] Taine0:
Just thought I'd post this here, I've made an MDPI version using my GF's phone and thought I'd share the code for a wider workspace (so icons goto bottom) I tried this version and it still uses the old workspace and slightly resized icons so they don't overlap as much in the app drawer. Guess you'd have to resize the icon shadow though

[Android Themes] Askael:
how did you do to display a transparent launcher status bar? I have it black, even though the firmware supports transparency exactly.
[Android Themes] afrayed:
use livewallpapers..multipicture wallpaper or superwall lite:)
[Android Themes] supetawesomedude:
Yeah I know what you mean!

Thank you! I'll add this to the OP but I'm not planning on including it in my personal launcher!
[Android Themes] rhythmyun:
Mine one looks like this, SGA.

Ermm, I'm pretty newbie. So what's wrong, and how can decompile and make changes as most users here said so ?

And is the dock suppose to come with small icon or transparent icon ?

Thanks in advance.
[Android Themes] PaxITIS:
Very nice! :cool:
[Android Themes] xxxMADxxx:
This launcher I guess very different with others..no dock in this launcher n that's the purpose..see the original thread by taine0..and indicator pages at the bottom its look so nice for me..if u want dock at the bottom u can used QQLAUNCHER modified by vipitus..correct me if I wrong..cheers all :beer:
[Android Themes] supetawesomedude:
I'm not sure what resolution SGA is but in this launcher, folders do NOT look right, because of the shadow effect. Here's the tool to decompiling apk's Apktool. I'm not sure what edits you would like to make. You can probably change docksize, icon application name text, size of default icons, size of shadows and other smaller things. Finally, no the dock is supposed to be CLEAR of icons, so yes, just the page indicators.

Thanks!

Yup! I'm still enjoying it :D QQLauncher by Vipitus is a viable alternative to this launcher, thanks for the advice :)
[Android Themes] baySF:
can you share your wallpaper with the squigglies lol.

EDIT: are we a loud to update the launcher or are we stuck with this version? nvm just tried updating and it removed ur version. i like the newer one more so i guess im not using this one. it was nice though.
[Android Themes] supetawesomedude:
You are free to update it on your own. I'm happy with the current set-up so I'm not going to change it for a while. Glad you liked it!

Btw, can you tell me the new features?
[Android Themes] baySF:
well, the icons in the app drawer are smaller. theres a home button in the app drawer as well. for more details go here:

[Eee Pad Transformer General] cspiby:
Just re-root after, what's the problem?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sbiriguda:
If they based the kernel build on the source tree for the TF101G, mempodroid is gone and unless you backed up su with OTA RootKeeper you'll lose root permanently - that is, until some other local privilege escalation vulnerability pops up (which could take a veeeeery long time).

--EDIT--

At least we know they didn't even take the time to look at the .config changes I sent them. Sheesh.

Bottomline: you'll have to wait until the sources for this kernel are out, then you'll have two options:

add CONFIG_L2TP=y to their shipped .config and rebuild the kernel for yourself (tricky)

wait until someone else on XDA does it if you don't like playing with cross-compilers and the like

Oh, you'll need root and CWM as well :)

Very easy! Open Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper, click Temp. Un-root (keeps backup), go to settings, about Tablet, Firmware update, Check for update, let it run. Go back to Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper, tap Restore Root and you are good to go! I can confirm that it works.

One caveat, you will probably have to have the stock recovery and not CWM for the update to work.
