Thanks for quick response Ace (you're an Ace in my book ;)) LOL

I sorta figured that mentioning the root is to lure in other Android fans wanting a good phone.

They won't HAVE to root it. I've done all the hard work. or ... I've done all the easy work - ha.

Or does it not make a difference?!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
You could just give them a rom like cyan/enom/dwang or something but make sure the version is stable, he's gonna release a new version soon. You could also put a theme so it doesnt look boring.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OrganizedFellow:
Yeah.

I'll most likely put Cyanogens newest.

I've always run it themeless, but that's a great idea!

Thanks!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OrganizedFellow:
Am I correct to assume that the process of unlocking is a HARDWARE unlock, right?!

So since I frequently test/try different ROMs. I don't have to worry about losing UNLOCK - right?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melterx12:
i beleive so, yes
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OrganizedFellow:
Cool.

I'll be testing this out tomorrow.

I'll report on my findings.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shagge68:
Unlocking = HARDWARE

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quicksite:
I have found the trackball so hard to maneuver to the most simple locations in any kind of compose window -- to go from beginning of a line to end of line, top of composed text to end of text block... I would really like for it to move much faster in those situations.

Also in scrolling up/down a web-page for simply reading.

At the same time. I find it way too hair-trigger and uncontrollable when trying to locate the link you want to click, or the field you want to edit on a form or any page.

Is this all Android-controlled, or does HTC hardware and its Sense UI add controllable refinement and adjustments?

Thank you.

(Bonus question which I will search for by myself: Are the hard buttons remappable to other functions. If so, is it possible to multi-function a hard-key by having it do one thing with a very light touch, and another with a press & hold ? )

These issues, as well as my Q re capacitive vs resistive screen are all about discomfort from Repetitive Stress having to place fingers and finger tips is positions completely different from using Windows Mobile devices. I am sure there much be advantages I am missing. I really look forward to those.

I am having issues with my G1. I keep having a auto loop of the rainbow screen. (Fast boot)

It sucessfully installs DREAIMG-RC29.zip. But when reset it goes back to rainbow screen.

You installed the zip?

Or

Did you install the file inside?

the only thing i see that i am 90 something percent sure isn't possible is the black buttons with white text. the rest of it should be very doable. looks really cool by the way.
[Android Themes] shoemeistah:
I dont see black buttons, what do you mean?... nice looking theme
[Android Themes] Raziel07:
Thats a good looking theme....this is off topic so i apologize in advance, but do you live in oceanside?
[Android Themes] david1171:
first screen shot, in the part that displays the carrier name. while the color for that particular button can be modded to be white, if you have the button images that dark of a color, then they will not be visible throughout the rest of the system where black text is used.
[Android Themes] prash:
Agreed, the white text on button might not be doable, but rest of it seems easy to pull off. I actually have something with the black/cyan color combo in the works, its not what you're looking for but you get the idea.

I do like that launcher bar you have in your mockups though. Sorta wanting to see how it'd look in my theme with some things replaced and changed around now.

But as far as your theme, I'm sure it's highly doable, just need to get a working metamorph and start editing the included image to your liking really.
[Android Themes] aodpoe:
thanks theme devs!

@david117 So your saying that using black text is easier for developing this theme.

@prash, would you say its easier to create a theme using a metamorph theme as a template and work of it, or would it be eaiser to create a update.zip theme?

one more thing in metamorph it is possible to change the top bar into different colors?

@Raziel07 yes i do live in Oceanside.
[Android Themes] prash:
Regarding the first response, I think he meant since we have limitations on what text we can change colors of, the black button is possible but the text on top of that will stay black..its not something we can change easily.

As far as metamorph questions, I highly prefer metamorph theme template now a days because it does away with signing and flashing an entire update.zip everytime you change some minor images. The theme in the screenshot is being built using only metamoprh format. Plus theres no need to constantly reboot (unless of course you change something in frameworks) everytime you apply changes. And yes with metamorph you can change top bar into any colors. But the top bar is just an image, you change that and you'll be able to change it anything you like. Just keep in mind all the little icons that go along with it have to change. They're all located in frameworks-res folder.

I suggest if you do go through metamorph method, that you find the black-bar mods theme in metamorph format, it gives you a nice base to start with and it has the white text edits already done for you. This way you don't have to worry about hex editing and such and just focus on changing the images.
[Android Themes] Mikey:
My opinion over update.zip or metamorph??

Metamorph

You get a larger group using your theme as to an update.zip.........you limit just to users using a specific rom
[Android Themes] opasha:
last i checked, it is doable. if you change the button to black (status_bar_clear_background or something like that), you can use colorchange to make the clear button text white (clear=FFFFFFFF).

also, as i mentioned in the .Remix theme concept thread. get people to help you in PMs. i'm glad to see that you are willing to take the time to learn themes unlike the other thread. there are many people on here who know how to theme and i'm sure are willing to help you. your theme looks nice and seems very doable to me. good luck to you; hopefully this thread does not become another experion thread.
[Android Themes] aodpoe:
@Prash i just replaced a few tray/drawer images from Android-2.0-Stock metamorph theme and it worked! im relly excited to see how this turns out. As for changing the font colors i will hold out on that for the moment, i will work around the system font color to make the theme.

preview:

@Mickey1022 thanks, i will be heading the metamorph path!!! just bought the donate version on the market.

@Opasha thanks for the help. I will start pm theme devs for further help. I also do not want this turning into a experion thread.
[Android Themes] opasha:
if you need any help as to where things are and how to edit/place certain files, i have some time today and tomorrow. PM me. so far you're doing this the right way with actual edits to the theme. good job. also, edit the battery color to match your teal. it would flow better. since you're going for a sleek look, try adding some gloss to your status bar since the one in your mock up seems too solid (kinda like an in and out gradient black-grey-black...not feeling it IMO). however, it may look nice, i guess the notif icons are messing it up since they have a diff background than the status bar.
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
I like where this is going..........only one suggestion, make the lockpattern cyan too,,if possible...otherwise awesome job!!!!

Also if you and Prash combine your theme with his icons boy would that be sick...just a suggestion:)
[Android Themes] aodpoe:
Opasha, your right some gloss might look good with this.

Currently working on mockup but slowly replacing a few files to Android-2.0-Stock metamorph theme.
[Android Themes] aodpoe:
yeah Prash icons look great.
[Android Themes] opasha:
yeah he did an amazing job on those. however, since this seems like a sleek look, it'd be nice if he could make new icons to match the sleekness. black and teal icons (if you saw a while ago, randumaccess had found a an icon set from deviant art that was white and teal. if you could find those and invert them and colorize them to black and teal, that would look very nice/modern.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] pnxsinned:
Start over, en check after each cab when it happends. Not all modifications are for all ROMS, most of the ROMS use differense versions of sense/manila. Reading before you install a cab, if its compatible or known issues will help you alot :P

Do you experience this or know if this will be or is fixed in future 2.0 releases?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] juicy.cook:
Okay so there seems to be a good amount of people here with Sprint and Verizon as their carrier, but there is not that much support for MetroPCS, which is a growing CDMA provider. I thought this would be a good place to gather information as far as what can work with the network concerning the HTC Vogue, MetroPCS, and Android.

So far this is what I have:

Data is for sure working on Donut AOSP, but I did have some issues when trying to connect with facebook and google sync, but I was successfully able to access the internet. I will come back to this build later but am currently downloading this in the themed version and I will report back on how it goes.

Using this Hero build I can once again get data, text, and calls, but I cannot get any data apps to work, therefore rendering GPS useless, which I currently can't even check to see if it works.

So the only thing that seems to work with Android with MetroPcs is Data (browser only), Text, and Calls. Not bad if that is all you need but in this case I prefer WM. But I will continue to fiddle with it. Hopefully some more builds will be pushed out that will hopefully resolve this. And using the SD card method is the only method in which I have successfully gotten data to work. Data is a no-go for me with the NAND flashing.

To set up your data the easiest way is as follows:

-Activate voice dialer

-Say "Open APN"

-hit okay okay to open the APN

-Click on your current APN to edit the settings or activate the menu and create a new one

-Enter in these settings

Proxy: wap.metropcs.net

Port: 3128

Username: your number@mymetropcs.com

Password: metropcs

The other settings dont really matter. I always just left them how they were.

Credit for the initial data settings goes to L0GiC4L 3ViL.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] whitey10tc:

[Touch CDMA Android Development] berardi:
this is a stab in the dark, but did you delete your blank files off your SD card? I had trouble once, and by deleting the rootfstonand and systemfstonand files, etc and rebooting my data started working. Just something to try
[Touch CDMA Android Development] juicy.cook:
No I never did try it. I will have to look into it though. Was everything that required data working (maps, apps, and weather?) or just the browser?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] m4f1050:
NAND method works on Android using MetroPCS APN. I have one running, but only WAP, marketplace doesn't work, youtube doesn't work, googlemaps doesn't work, etc etc.

I believe the reason for these not working is they have their own way of communicating with network, so they don't use the APN settings, maybe this is wrong and they (google) should fix it (their libraries) to use APN information?
