Use the search feature... there are quite a few thread with this question answered...

In short, it move the dalvik vm cache from /data to /cache, giving you 40MB+ extra free space in /data to install apps...

What is dalvik cache -> http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Dalvik-cache

What is dalvik cahce relocation -> http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Dalvik-cache-relocation
[Nexus One General] hah2110:
I actually saw that after I posted. What are the negatives then? Just less room for cache from other programs?
[Nexus One General] craigacgomez:
Well, so far, no one's complained abt any problems cause by this, but yeah, essentially, this reduces your cache size. It could cause problems with OTA updates which can be large, but if you're using a custom ROM, you wouldn't be using OTAs anyway...
[Nexus One General] hah2110:
Ok thanks for the help. So if I do a data wipe to a new ROM, does this operation get undone and it goes back to normal?
[Nexus One General] Amdathlonuk:
Odd.

I'm running Cyanogen 5.0.3.1 and I don't have this in my spare parts?
[Nexus One General] craigacgomez:
@hah2110... no a data wipe does not move the dalvik cache back to the data partition. Don't know if you can uncheck it in SpareParts to revert, but if not moving it back has to be done by modifying/removing the init script which does it. Though keep in mind, if it cannot be unchecked in Spart Parts, it probably means it's not safe to revert...

@Amdathlonuk, CM automatically has this hook enabled. Enomthers 1.7.1+ has this as an option in Spare Parts
[Nexus One General] Amdathlonuk:
Thanks man.

Go away for a week and you lose all knowledge of what's going on!!

So many roms, so little time....
[Nexus One General] hah2110:
It actually is an option in Spare Parts, but it says you need to do a factory reset it you revert back.
[Nexus One General] craigacgomez:
Yep, expected that... didn't run Enom's for long so I wasn't sure... but from what I've read and understood, moving dalvik-cache to /cache is permanent... if u revert u have to clear everything via recovery and re-install everything!!

My suggestion, go with this... been using it for a while... no problems...
[Omnia II General] timv7777:
Samsung Omnia II: i8000, i920, B7610, B7620

Samsung screwed the pooch on this one... How many different phones (with diff HW) should be given the same Model number? I mean really???

It's a bit frustrating to be reading about some new app, just to find it's not for MY ONMIA II , but for an earlier model.

This is my last Samsung phone - I don't want to fall victim to not only their absurd modeling, but to their bloatware that bastardizes the OS.

Sorry all - just venting!
[Omnia II General] ptrd:
I understand your frustration as I'm trying to find more specific things for my B7610.

For B7610 you should look here

also the Omnia 2 has an extra place there:-)

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProFragger:
Hey Guys,

So I have really stupid question about using WM6.5 on Xperia. Essentially, I am trying to manually create a data connection/mms connection and in the past, I have always been able to figure out how to do this, but for some reason in WM6.5, I am just not able to get it to work because I think I might be making the changes in the wrong places.

So, can someone please tell me step by step on how to manually create a data connection on WM 6.5, possibly with the EnergyROM? I would really appreciate it! Here are the settings:

1. Click on Start.

2. Select Settings.

3. Select Connections.

4. Select GPRS.

5. Select New and enter the following information:

 Name: Simple

 Connect to: Internet

 Access point name: simple

 Username: <Blank>

 Password: <Blank>

 Primary dns: <Blank>

 Secondary dns: <Blank>

 IP address: <Blank>

6. Press Done.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackleung:
It's not the fault of WM6.5 but HTC. They hide the WM setting page and force you to use their settings tab (why we can't have both by default???). Use this

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo]

"HideSettings"=dword:0
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProFragger:
Thanks for response Jack. That value is already set to 0. Any chance you could provide me the steps of putting in those settings. I feel like I am missing something here. Thank you again for your help so far.

If anyone else can chime in, as well, I would really appreciate it. Thank you!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackleung:
Maybe I was a bit confuse about your problem. Isn't that you can't find the shortcut for "Connections" under Start > Settings > Connections > Connections?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkorn:
I think mytouch users complained about the same issue, didn't know it was present in the nexus as well. You could also rename the file, or depending on the rom there could be a script to look for recovery.img in /data/.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Gregalous:
This is a collection of all currently available Rosie themes (Stock, Espresso, Droid Launcher) in MetaMorph form.

Now, why should I use MetaMorph, some app I've never even heard of, instead of an update.zip, you might ask?

This will work for any ROM that is running Sense 2.1

You don't have to boot your phone into recovery or use ADB to apply it! You simply use an app on your phone and you can literally have a completely different theme in a matter of seconds!

It DOES NOT override any other themes that you're currently using! Whereas an update.zip will override any other theme (unless it's built into the .zip), MetaMorph only edits the files you tell it to edit, which means you can mix and match themes as your heart desires :)

To use:

Download MetaMorph from the market

Download the attached .zip(s) and place them in a folder called AndroidThemes on your sdcard

Launch MetaMorph, click Pick Theme, and select whichever .zip you want to apply. Follow the prompts from there and let MetaMorph do everything else :)

Espresso_Rosie just gives you the Espresso bottom bar with Stock icons.

Stock_Rosie reverts the bottom bar back to the Stock theme and stock icons.

DroidLauncher gives you the Droid Launcher theme. It does not change the icons at all.

Rosie_Icons just changes the icons. It does not change the bar at all.

Screenshots and .zips attached.

I would put up more screenshots but ddms isn't working. I'll see if I can find a link to a screenshot of the Droid Launcher

UPDATE: Fixed Stock_Rosie to include the navbar. Also the DroidLauncher theme now changes the icons back to stock.

**Rosie Icons ported over from here
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] mountaindont:
Metamorph is a really good idea, I know its been out for a while, just never got much attn from hero users.

Theme devs (regaw and treve) should really hop on this man.

I look forward to the possible uses of this.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] koricua74:
I'm running DarchLegend 4.3.1 and this sent my Hero into a boot loop. I downloaded MetaMorph, applied the Espresso_Rosie.zip and everything went crazy. I rebooted into RA applied the Darkstar theme it booted up but then everything from all my Pure Widgets, Beautiful Widgets, and Google Voice started force closing. I had to wipe then re-flash the ROM, then use my Nandroid backup.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] darchstar:
odd, i applied the droid launcher here and it worked perfectly for me, just a few initial force closes then everything was smooth sailing.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] marcusva79:
Dont think Darkstar for 2.1 does not work. I have tried to use Metamorph but a no go. It always says that the theme contol file cannot be read. Also how do you take screenshots of your phone. I know its some app of the market.

and with the ugly lockscreen ewwwww

Be nice if I could it all black. No rosie, taskbar stay the same from first photo, without the gay taskbar. I know metamorph can do it but cant figure it out

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] chirag2f4u:
Paid is donation, Most likely nothing is different

How long does it take you guys to do the initial testing when using metamorph?

and does it app want to force close?

I figured out the boot loop had something to do with either the dalvik-cache or ext partition. After being in a boot-loop for about 7 minutes I cleared the dalvik-cache and my ext and everything booted up fine.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] marcusva79:
How do you make a clear rosie for Darkstar theme? I am ready to learn
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ziggy682:
No go for me. This happened to me on Damage 2.0r5.

Metamorph completely borked my ROM. I launched the program, clicked the button for it to check if my phone was capable, clicked Always Allow when SU popped up, then clicked the test my phone button again, picked the Espresso Theme from the first post, it told me there were two files to install, I clicked the button, it started installing the first file, then it seemed to freeze, and went into an infinite boot loop.

Unfortunately, the last Nandroid I have is from Damage1.0, and I won't load that one because I would have to redo the PRI fix, so it looks like I have to start from scratch.

I tried wiping Dalvik and ext, and it doesn't change a thing. What a PITA. I should have known when the first comment under Metamorph in the market was another using describing the exact same problem.

I have installed countless ROMS, themes, task bars, radio updates, etc. in the 6 months I've had my Hero, and I have never had a simple program kill my phone. My advice to everyone is do a Nandroid before you do anything with Metamorph. If the OP would mind adding that to the first post, I'm sure we can save other people from having the same fate as me, because it seems like I'm not the first one to have this issue.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Gregalous:
Updated to fix Stock_Rosie and DroidLauncher. They should all be good now.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] phonetec:
when did u update? cause i just downloaded and installed like 20 mins ago.

EDIT: i got it before you updated it, woohoo!! no stock icons for me!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Gregalous:
:D

The new icons are also available in the OP just in case you do happen to go back for any reason ;)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Cordy:
Thanks for the themes. I always wanted to try metamorph but was always curious about which would work and which wouldn't. After playing around for a bit with it even after flashing back the stock rosie the phone icon does not revert to normal. I will admit I do like the way it looks with the stock app drawer and add widget icons. However I just wanted to give a heads up on this. Not sure if it matters but I'm running DCv2.05. Also not sure if it matters but it randomly force closes settings or market after applying a theme.

Edit:Also would like to add after applying the espresso rosie no other rosies will apply properly so I'm stuck with the espresso rosie however I'm no longer getting an FC's.

Edit2:After a couple restarts and reapplying I was able to get the other themes to work again. The phone icon still remains the same though.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] marcusva79:
http://www.4shared.com/file/25724781...ie-signed.html

Here is the link for the clear rosie. Memba trying to use it on darkstar theme without the htc stock lockscreen appearing and gray squares appear on the taskbar. If you can that that would be awesome.

i have tried to message you but i dont know if it worked.

sorry the link did not work.....
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Gregalous:
Ya, that's just MetaMorph acting up. MetaMorph is opening up .apks and stuffing new stuff in there while the phone is running which is kind of a risky operation, so sometimes things do get a little wacky. The force closes are nothing to worry about. (Market and android.phone FCs are the most common, but completely normal). If you apply a theme and nothing happens, reboot your phone and try again. That solved it for me.

You can find a clear lockscreen here. Like I said via PM, send me a working link to the Rosie and I'll gladly port it to MetaMorph.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] taicor:
I am unable to even load meta morph. Superuser fc's on me.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Gregalous:
What ROM are you using? As far as I know, all the current 2.1's have a perfectly working Superuser... :confused:
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] taicor:
I'm on fresh 2.0d. Most everything needing Su works. Just not Su from terminal and mm.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Cordy:
Thanks for the information. After a bunch of trying as stated before, after using the new rosie icons changing the rosie to stock or any other one for that matter since they are all using stock icons does not revert the phone icon to normal.

hi everyone

loving the site, really some good stuff on here. i'm gutted i missed out on the wavesecure beta by two days. i downloaded it off the web when it was still in beta but installed it off android market first forgetting that the beta had ended.

if i had installed the saved pc version would that have worked? and if so is there a way of wiping it completely off the phone (if i uninstall it and reinstall it remembers that i've installed it previously)

otherwise, i think i'll just have to pay the subscription, just gutted i missed out by two days . . .
[Desire Themes and Apps] deprecate:
even with the beta package installed, the start date for your account would be timestamped after the free window had expired.

Why is it garbage? Is there a free/better alternative?
[Desire Themes and Apps] FloatingFatMan:
He's calling it garbage because anyone with a little know how can just uninstall the app, rendering it useless.

Programs like Wave Secure are great; but they need to be uninstallable.
[Desire Themes and Apps] jbaldwinroberts:
but most would be thieves wouldn't have the know how, plus the phone can be locked as soon as u can get to the internet.

unless u mean it can be uninstalled once the phone is locked, hard reset maybe?

Sent from my HTC Desire using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[Desire Themes and Apps] FloatingFatMan:
Most mobile phone thieves wouldn't have a clue how to uninstall it or do a hard reset, but they DO know enough to turn it off right away, and LEAVE it off until they've sold it on.

The buyer almost certainly WILL know what to do to disable such security measures. The only way to truly prevent it, is for the program to be in ROM, so it can't be disabled. You may as well just call your operator and get the IMEI disabled.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] subliminalurge:
OK, I know right off the bat that this is a dumb question, but I just can't figure out what the big deal about Espresso is. I've searched many, many times, but that just brings up people asking how to install it.

What I'm curious about is what's the big deal? What does Espresso bring to the table? Functionally, not cosmetically, why would I want Espresso on my phone?

Because if it's just a cosmetic change, people surely wouldn't be cluttering up threads so much asking about it, right?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VinceOB:
It brings nothing but a newer looking Rosie Bar. I for one cant stand it and would prefer the stock Rosie to Espresso. Ive also grown to like the Droid Launcher...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] subliminalurge:
OK, thanks.

That's pretty much what I thought, but so many people seem so very, very eager to get it within 10 seconds of a new rom release, I thought maybe it might add some actual functionality.

But if it's just the cosmetic change, then I agree, it's butt-ugly. Stock Rosie looks much better. Haven't tried out the Droid launcher yet, I'll give it a look. Gotta say though, I'm not sure about ditching Sense. It's not so much Sense itself I'm attached to, but some of the widgets that depend on it....
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mountaindont:
I for one think any variation of rosie is ugly, I prefer nexus launcher. I also liked launcher2, with the app dock. That sinistermashes dudes idea for a dock as a launcher was a kewl idea. Conservative and intuitive.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dametzg:
Neither the Droid Launcher or Espresso themes ditch Sense. They just change the look of the launcher bars at the bottom of the screen. All the Sense features and widgets still work fine with either of them.

I like the stock rosie or the nexus launcher, at least those tell you which screen you're on. The expresso doesn't and it's big... too much space taken up.

I'll check it out. As I said, I'm not attached to sense, I just can't bring myself to get rid of a few of the widgets that rely on it.

That said, from a cosmetic point of view, I think Espresso is going about 10 years backwards from a UI design point of view. I also think the stock, Google developed Android launcher belongs somewhere in the Windows 3.1 league.....

Then again, I also don't understand why people give a crap about the lockscreen. I always just do a quick double click on the menu button and never see it in the first place.

Maybe I'm just not the target audience for these particular tweaks....
