Hey man what app is that you are using for the toggle controls???
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] DubsideWICKED:
how do i get this to work on my rooted hero with a stock NFX odexed rom
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Yep, that's expected. As mentioned, is doesn't change your rosie itself, just the icons inside / for the buttons.

Edit: Unless it looks VERY different before. What did your launcher look like previously? Also, from a functional perspective, is it "mostly" working for you?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
BTW, thanks for the comments guys. I appreciate it. However, you'll have to take it up with VinceOB, he's been my unofficial apprentice, and is quite the quick learner :).
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] VinceOB:
hahahaha Bout time I get the recognition. jk LOL Im still waiting on the .smali write up that you were gonna write up months ago...LOL
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] smstutler:
Flashed over black and blue theme, occasionally it will open the add to home when the drawer should open. Other than that it really worked out perfectly for me.

See, I like it. Looks nice.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Yeah, that's the primary bug I'm trying to work out. It is an easy reset, by clicking the phone icon, but a minor nuisance nonetheless, that shouldn't be there. Glad you like it though, and yes, I think it looks nice in your screen shot as well!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] mountaindont:
where did you get that icon set?!?!?

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] mountaindont:

would it be immoral to steal those icon sets and make a metamorph for the stock icons?

The icons sets are actually free.

Zen Rosie....

If you do prefer the different version of rosie you can just take your res and resource files from the new zen and then rename them after their sprint counterparts and then youll have it(if anyone needs a set in red just pm).
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Just be careful, as it can get confusing. I cheated and in the Rosie.apk, and renamed / modified the 'phone' icon to be the name of the old left arrow up/down icon, so that phone shows on the left, and vice/versa for the arrow in the middle, which has the old 'phone' image names...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
Ok, so this is THE coolest mod thus far.

BUT - I feel like it slowed the responsiveness of the buttons down just a hair. :(

Still, sticking with it because it makes a hell of a lot more sense for the buttons to be laid out this way.

i love showing off my mods to stock friends, this one is going to blow their mind! tysm js

when can we expect an update? :-)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
I hope to dig in this weekend. May have to start from scratch, not sure yet. Rest assured though, it'll get fixed if it's the last thing I do. I'm growing to really like this as well, so thanks for the inspiration!

Based on some other feedback, I'm going to also pull the modified Rosie that was built to support LWP, and apply the same fixes, so that there is a choice. I don't use LWP, and I prefer the weather animations over LWP, but to each his own...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] tejasrichard:
It is taking some getting used to, but having the tray in the middle really does feel more "right" somehow. This is a mod that I'm likely to use from now on....until a new shiny pops up and diverts my attention, that is :D !
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Thanks. I'm the same way. Haven't got used to it 100% yet, and find myself clicking the wrong location, but I agree it just seems to make sense. Ironically, when mountaindont first suggested the idea, I didn't think it was for me, but I was wrong. I'm digging it too :D. Not only does it feel right, I think it just looks better, aesthetically (more balanced).

Getting ready to post the LWP version of the Rosie in this thread in a few minutes. I have no idea what is different in the Rosie, but I just grabbed it from Flipz's site, decompiled, and added my changes for the button remap, etc.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Remapped buttons for LWP Rosie

As mentioned above, attached is a version of the Rosie that Flipz posted for supporting LWP. Thanks to Flipz, et al for that mod. I downloaded from his site and extracted the Rosie.apk from the update zip, and then added my modifications to it.

As mentioned, I have no idea what was done differently in the Rosie.apk to support LWP better, and I don't run LWP, so I am flying blind, but for anyone who may have a need, here it is.

Same caveats apply as mentioned in the OP, in terms of quirks, minor bugs, etc.

EDIT: Attachment removed in favor of updated apk found here.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] mountaindont:
hey man, no problem! my idea doesnt even compare to your work, so no thanks is due in my regard.

i too prefer the weather animations over the lwp(total battery hog, for me) so i hope you continue too keep them seperate :-)

"if its the last thing i do"

a man with a mission. now THATS inspiring :)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
wouldn't that make it a PITA to get to the phone app? I guess you could use the green button, but I am too trained for the soft phone key.

Not to mention that soft phone key resets stuff when it gets outa wack...as far as this mod is concerned at least.

Why do I always feel the urge to disclaimer my statements????:confused:
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Different strokes for different folks. I'm looking at this right now. Still have the dang bug trying to iron out regarding shortcuts appearing until it gets reset with the phone button...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
Could you spoof a phone button click everytime the appdrawer is selected?

I am not sure if it is possible to make it think it went through without poping it up on the screen. Just a thought.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] tstack77:
Loving the work JsChiSurf.

Not sure if you've already noticed this, but the zenulator build based off the MyTouch 3g Slide already has this switched. Maybe you can dig around in their rosie to get some ideas for this and other mods (it's pretty cool and very different)

Hope it helps :)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Rosie Middle Button Apps Launch Only

Okay, here is a FULLY functional, as far as I can tell, modified rosie that removes the left apps button and the right shortcuts button, and remaps the middle button, changing the middle button functionality from 'phone' to 'app drawer'.

Download and rename the attached file to 'Rosie.apk', and push to your phone's /system/app directory.

This only modifies the icons that overlay your launcher graphics (removes the arrow on the left and the plus sign on the right, and changes the middle phone icon to the arrow up/down).

I also got the middle arrow functioning show that it switches up/down based on whether the app drawer is open/closed.

If you are running a launcher/rosie that has the graphics for the left and right tabs, you will need to replace those graphics in com.htc.resources with transparent .pngs, so that all you see is your center button & icons.

This is ONLY for those who want center button only functionality. I hope to have the 3 button option fixed soon, just been a little busy with "real" work lately.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] VinceOB:
Did you get my gtalk earlier?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] looneylu:
@JsChisurf

I know you have a life and are busy, but I wanted to make a request... I've gotten used to seeing my taskbar without a clock to the point where I hate the clock up there. I've been playing around with the mytouch zen rom and was hoping I could bother you to port that fix to it...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] VinceOB:
He's not using the My Touch Rom. Im already working on a fix for that...There's a lot more too it than just a simple port. The framework is different.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] looneylu:
well... as long as someone is working on it... ;) you have an ETA on that?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] VinceOB:
Hopefully by the weekend.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] MagnusRagnarok:
Sweet. Glad you got the arrow going up and down now, thats awesome.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Thanks. Yes, the arrows not switching was bugging me big time. I actually just re-posted a modified version of this "mod", as the previous version had the up/down arrows positioned too high in the middle button. The screen shots have been updated too (see below), to show the better positioning. Also, dropping the 'phone' app icon on the bottom left of your screen works as a nice replacement, if you want/prefer a soft key for the phone as well.

Reference:
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Success, finally!

For those following this thread, I just want to report that I have SUCCESSFULLY & FINALLY completed a complete remap of the stock Rosie buttons, bug free as far as I can tell!

Please read the first post, as I have updated it with all relevant information.

There are 2 versions posted. The fixed original 3 button version, and the center button only option, for opening / closing the app drawer. In the 3 button version I also went ahead and replaced the right add shortcuts button with the MyTouch 3G style 'open contacts' button instead.

On a side note, of all the mods I have done, this one has proven to be the most difficult by far to debug and get working to my, and hopefully your liking. As such, I am probably more proud of this mod than any other, as I would hate to admit the number of hours I have invested in this bad boy. Therefore, I hope those who were looking for this type of functionality enjoy.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] looneylu:
loving it JChi, just wondering if you could release another version. I have the black and blue theme and the rosie highlights green... can you do anything about that??? if you can't it doesn't matter, i can deal with it like this.... anyways, thanks a lot for the hard work
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Thanks. The mod(s) attached shouldn't affect the rosie graphics itself in any way, just the icons that overlay the buttons. The rosie itself is controlled in 'com.htc.resources.apk', which isn't touched by this mod.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] looneylu:
oh... ok, i know what i did then... let me try again... thanks for the reply :D
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Cool. If you can confirm it is working as expected, that would be great. Screen shots even better :).
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] looneylu:
will do... i just messed it all up because before applying the rosie fix, I metamorphed my black and blue espresso rosie to the metamorph one with the green highlight... i didn't like the black and blue icons too much, and when I first tried to install your apk, it didn't take because the name wasn't Rosie.apk. Once i figured that out, i didn't go to my back, just pushed the apk, and the graphic stayed the same... will post up pics in a bit
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Ahh, shoot. I had that note in the original post, but when I re-wrote it after uploading the latest, I accidentally deleted the message, re-adding to the OP now.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] looneylu:

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Wasney:
So, I tried this and now I cannot use sense at all, and for some odd reason windows wont even detect to let me push my backup back. I have root explorer, but pasting by backup over the edited rosie does nothing after a reboot.

Any help guys?

Just tested on fresh 2.0d and it works also ported the palazzo rosie and lockscreen here. if you want to make a rosie theme for this the common_app_rosie_btn_middle_rest.png must be scaled to 166x44 or else it wont fit right.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] MagnusRagnarok:
Thanks alot. This is sick. I just put up a theme i was messing with after checking out vinceOB's last one, and it works great(I hate green, i made it for a few buddies. It was more of proof of concept). Im going to throw in your remap, but still use my rosie heatsink buttons i made and then the arrow for the middle appdrawer. This will look sick:D

​
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] thatguythatdid:
So I just tried to increase the width of the common_app_rosie_btn_left_rest.png but no matter what it won't increase the width on the the actual rosie. Any help
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] MagnusRagnarok:
Something about espresso and rosie is different, so if you try to throw parts meant for rosie into espresso, they get all jaggy. They dont line up anymore,and you get mad for wasting your time. Try using a rosie meant for rosie if you want to swap common_app_btn_rosie_middle, its meant to take a different shape.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] thatguythatdid:
I'm using the mt3g rosie.apk with live wallpapers that was posted for fresh 2.0d and that with no changes (by me) is too small. when I try to increase that it just overlaps the center button:(.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
FYI, I had to mess with hex editing the button_bar.xml file to get the MT3G icons to position properly on our version of Rosie, otherwise, the icons were too high. I tested this for positioning on the espresso version as well as my droid launcher version, which looks good:

However, it is certainly feasible that it will not look quite right in all scenarios.

Let me post a "test" version in a few that you guys can theme/test with, without my adjustments to see if it makes a difference. In my testing, w/o adjustments, the buttons were off badly, especially for espresso, which caused me to apply the edits that I did. So, as Magnus said, it may be that it is just not meant for certainly layouts...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] thatguythatdid:
Thankyou. will this be the live wallpapers version or just the regular?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] gomorrah:
I got it to work fine on my chopped Rosie. I didnt edit any XML's, I just editied the images...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Looks nice. Yes, the other (best) option is simply to adjust your graphics to accommodate the current positioning. Looks good. I don't think removing my XML edits is probably the right option, given what I saw when making this mod.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
I'll just post the XML file to replace in either.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] thatguythatdid:
Thankyou again
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Okay, as mentioned previously, I had to tweak the XML for padding, etc, in our Rosie, in order to make the left/right espresso buttons line up. Reason being, for example, in the MT3G the left/right buttons are 62 px in width, with no white spaces between the left/right buttons and the middle button.

In our rosie, the left/right buttons are 66 px in width, but they also include white spacing between the buttons. Therefore, I had to adjust the XML to accommodate our pixel sizes, without changing the images in com.htc.resources.

The attached XML below is untouched, in terms of padding, spacing etc. What this means is, replacing in the modified rosie attached in the first post, will result in spacing between the left/right & middle buttons if using the stock espresso for example.

So, if using the attached XML file as a replacement, if using espresso for example, you will need to remove the white spacing on the left/right buttons (towards the center button), and stretch the left/right buttons, I've found, to 67px.

Either way, for themers, by removing the padding I've added by using the attached XML, you should be able to adjust your button graphics, and get everything (hopefully) to line up. Bottom line, this is a "hack" to get this working, so you will need to take it and run with it to work in your environment.

Replace the attached file, button_bar.xml (remove the .txt extension), in the '\res\layout-port' folder of the modified Rosie.apk provided in the OP.

To show you what I mean, below is a screenie using the attached XML below, where I have modified the left button to remove the white spacing to the right, and stretched to 67px width. I did not change the right button, to show the impact of not changing the button width, while also not adjusting for this width in the attached XML. YMMV.

Thanks. Love it man, looks nice! Did you end up removing the extra white space and stretching the left/right buttons to get a nice tight fit?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] andyriot:
i believe what i had to do was modify the left and right sides by aligning them to the opposide side of the whitespace (towards the "inside") and then expanding the canvas by 2 pixels on the spaced side (68px total). does that make sense? haha. i can post the modified images for anyone who wants them :)

i also moved the phone and people icons down 1 pixel as they seemed a little bit high on the espresso bar compared to the arrow.

*random question* where is the evdo status icons? i cant find them in framework-res or htc.resources?
