[EVO 4G General] bendover101:
Not sure if this is an EVO or general 2.1 issue but here's what I've found:

I've tested this issue with 2 apps.

on Handcent, when I check the box to show unread sms count in notification bar, it doesn't work.

I'm also running My Battery Status which also doesn't show the battery % in the notification bar. I have to pull the bar down to see the %.

When I flashed Evolution v7 on my phone to test Froyo, I found that My Battery Status is showing a % on the notification bar. so I sent a txt to myself to test Handcent and there it is! A unread count on the notification bar!

The EVO is my first Android phone.

So is this an issue with the HTC's 2.1 or 2.1 in general since it works fine in 2.2?
[General Questions and Answers] kkssgg:
I know this will be for some really stupid question but.

If I buy app on App Market will I have updates (aka next releases of the app) downloadable/updatable for free? :D

Thanks for clearing this one out for me
[General Questions and Answers] tingen:
Yep. You will update for free.

[XPERIA X10 General] acmbc:
Some of my calendar appointments do NOT show up in any agenda/calendar widget I have tried.

I have two google-based calendars (work and personal). All appointments from both calendars DO show up in the calendar *application*.

However, only appointments in my personal calendar (default gmail account) show up in ANY widget, and NONE AT ALL show up in the default calendar widget.

As far as widgets are concerned, I have tried:

- Default

- Jorte

- Smooth Calendar

- Agenda Widget

Has anyone had a similar issue/any known workarounds/widgets which DO work?

Thanks!

Augusto
[XPERIA X10 General] Terul:
I use "Smooth Calendar" and have multiple calendars synced with it. These include calendars I own and ones I am sharing.

All of them show up in the widget no problem.

I recommend using it, as it is the nicest calendar widget I have found. One tap on it will let you enter config, refresh or calendar. Under config you can select which calendars will show up.

Cheers
[XPERIA X10 General] acmbc:
Have tried it, but it doesn't work (and I would prefer more calendar entry lines).

I forgot to mention that my work calendar is automatically picked up by the calendar system as it is a shared calendar visible from my personal account.

Ill try to remove the "shared" view and add it explicitly in the calendar app.

Thanks - any more suggestions welcome.
[XPERIA X10 General] Erik89:
Agenda widget

Does somebody now a widget for the Xperia X10 like the agenda widget on the Samsung Galaxy SII? You can scroll in that one.
[XPERIA X10 General] gio.ducatti:
any chance to sync to google??
[XPERIA X10 General] scoobysnacks:
use pure grid calendar widget:

choose android auto select for calendar input source

go to applications and sync, google account, then sync calendar

refresh the app with it's refresh button and voila your appointments are there
[General Questions and Answers] Blauvster:
Does anyone know of a program that can combine audio(from the mic) and video(from the camera) into a stream that could be accessed via wifi? Kinda like Qik without involving Qik servers. What would be perfect is VLC.

I have found a few programs that kinda do it, WebCameraPlus and Mobiola. But both require a driver on a computer and do not transmit sound.

What I am trying to do is use an old WM phone(HTC Wizard) as a baby monitor. I could use a PC or another smart phone to access the stream from pretty much anywhere then. The wizard apparently doesnt work with Qik, or maybe it is just an issue with the ROM.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
Looking for anyone who wants to help cut the fat on the Espresso SENSE UI.

I'm not a fan of the Legend Sense UI and I think their are a lot of good aspects to the Slide Sense UI.

I think most of these attributes are covered up by the bloatware and redundancies of Tmo, HTC and Google APPs.

Right now I'm just going through APKs, clearing out the non-essentials, and testing to see if I break anything.

I'll keep a list of Safe to Remove here in the OP.

This list is from ROOT, ENG-Build, and flash to SlideMEROOT2. If you have stock, SlideMEROOT2 is stock ROM with extras and allows you to use SuperUser through ClockworkMod. (keep the update.zip from SlideMEROOT2 Flash Thread)

Safe to Remove List (Not set in stone)

T-Mobile Apps

AppPack2.0.apk

Faves.apk..............................(Tmo's useless Faves // Kills dock button // you will crash Contacts if you click add fav)

FavesWidget.apk.....................(Will leave blank spot in Widget List)

mytouchmusic-signed.apk.........(Tmo Internet Radio)

HTCSetupWizard.apk ..............(THIS IS THE TMO SET UP WIZARD AT FIRST BOOT)

SelfHelp.apk .........................(Tmo My Account and My Device For Idiots) TWO FOR ONE SPECIAL!!!

vvm-signed.apk.......................(Visual Voicemail)

The first time you use Visual Voicemail requires Self Help. After that you can remove Self Help and continue to use the VVM.​

HTC APPS and Widgets

Mail.apk................................(HTC Mail App)

htcmailwidgets.apk.................(HTC Mail Widget App)

HtcTwitter.apk.......................(HTC's Twitter App: aka Peep)

com.htc.TwitterWidget.apk.......(Peep Widget)

Random Apps

amazonmp3_1.6+24_signed_zipaligned.apk....(Amazon MP3 Store)

BarcodeScanner.apk................(Useful QR Code Scanner but unnecessary)

IM.apk..................................(Google's Instant Message App)

THEMES

Hoops.apk

LightShow.apk

NatureTheme.apk Nest Theme.... I think

Palazzo.apk

Surf.apk

Wildflower.apk

Not sure where Red Rocks Theme APK is....

​

(Going one by one, so much help would be appreciated.)

If you remove something and things break put it back. Some things may have broke you just haven't tried using the thing it broke, so keep a backup.

NOT Safe to Remove LIST

SetupWizard.apk (If you remove this and wipe the phone you are ****-out-of-luck.)

Screws up Account Syncing

FriendStream.apk

HtcFacebook.apk

NewsReader.apk

Stock.apk

Weather.apk

WeatherProvider.apk

WeatherSyncProvider.apk

Does this help?

[myTouch 3G Slide General] HebrewToYou:
There's already a thread for this...
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
I posted that on someone else's thread and have been using it as a jumping point. There are a lot of Espresso stuff that is buried or mislabeled (probably on purpose). Gotta Catch 'Em All.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
That turned into more of a help group thread. I'm specifically looking for people that want to test and keep a list in the main thread. Not sure if the OP of that thread will be updating a list. It didn't seem like it and it was more of a help me shout out.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] HebrewToYou:
Well, if you're going to pursue making this THE thread for the subject, I recommend you copy the list of apps I've successfully removed from my Slide running Eugene's SlideMEROOT2 rom.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
Definately will. Thanks. You planning on cutting more out?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] HebrewToYou:
Yeah, for sure. I'm going to try to remove...

Faves

MyModes

My Account

My Device

Peep

Stocks

Weather

News

...and as many of the themes as I possibly can. I'm fairly certain that I would have to leave at least one theme in place in order to prevent a crash upon wiping the phone, so I'll probably be leaving the surf/beach theme on the handset.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] HebrewToYou:
Someone in the other thread tried removing Faves and FavesWidget which resulted in crashes/issues with the Contacts app. Someone should try replacing Contacts and Phone with the "stock" versions from a CM5 rom, either the dream/sapphire or N1 version.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] mesajoejoe:
FriendStream.apk

Removing this seems to be causing Facebook for Mytouch sync issues. It syncs but the sync icon never goes away, and going into accounts sync google sync stuff shows icons that never go away as well.

My list so far no issues:

rm -r amazonmp3_1.6+24_signed_zipaligned.apk

rm -r AppPack2.0.apk

rm -r YouTube.apk

rm -r IM.apk

rm -r Mail.apk

rm -r vvm-signed.apk

rm -r Faves.apk

rm -r mytouchmusic-signed.apk

rm -r HtcTwitter.apk

rm -r com.htc.TwitterWidget.apk

rm -r FavesWidget.apk

rm -r htcmailwidgets.apk
[myTouch 3G Slide General] HebrewToYou:
Wait... you removed Faves.apk with NO issues? Have you tried launching the Contacts app because someone else reported issues there.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] ratchetrizzo:
Also, which apk is for peep?

Anyone know what apk is for that setup icon thats a green "my"

-----

Edit, found what peep and that setup icon are:

peep

HtcTwitter.apk

com.htc.TwitterWidget.apk

setup icon

HTCSetupWizard.apk

friendstream doest work correctly if you remove faves so it looks like that one has to stay, at least for me as i like the friendstream for facebook
[myTouch 3G Slide General] mesajoejoe:
Exactly what he says ^

rm -r HtcTwitter.apk
[myTouch 3G Slide General] HebrewToYou:
We should probably limit the "official" apps that can be removed without affecting the functionality of any other apps. For instance, we probably shouldn't advice anyone to remove the Genius app when there's a hardware button set to trigger the launch.

The Peep app is, I believe, htcTwitter.apk. I don't believe you should be removing the Setup app -- I dont know the .apk name -- but it's your phone. ;)
[myTouch 3G Slide General] ratchetrizzo:
the setup app only displays those 4 options you get when you turn on the phone for the first time.

I am savvy enough to know how to enable email, social networking, and adding contacts all by myself without a program holding my hand lol
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
There is a stock Setup and there is a Sense Slide Tmo HTC one lol. I'm curious about the contacts app issue... My only problem is the damn app keeps changing it's name from People to Contact and back and forth... It hasn't crashed yet. It only does when you try to add someone but hitting the dock button does nothing, which is a plus. I'm gonna find the correct setup to remove and the T-Mo Account bs right now.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] ratchetrizzo:
It's a shame removing this crap doesn't get us more usable ram.

/data where **** gets installed to never changes and seems to be a different partition than /system.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
Where are you removing it from and how?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] ratchetrizzo:
/system/app where all the preinstalled crap is

I'm moving it to my sdcard for backup.

And yes, the files are gone, and yes df reports /system has more free space, but like I said, anything you install yourself gets installed to /data which is a seperate partition.

Do a df and see.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
Ohh, yeah your personal installs still get saved to RAM sadly. We gotta wait on Apps2SD to fix that, but for now killing the useless stuff preloaded will make room for the stuff you want and need.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] android007:
This is actually a really good thread. It sucks, I'm not home and all I want to do is remove these apps like Peep!

Im glad you guys started taking risks. I think I'll backup everything first and then do this too. Did anyone figure out how to flash a recovery image (other than the update.zip method)

I'm going to delete a lot of the apps but think I'll keep Faves around in case I hit that stupid button.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
The only way right now is through ClockworkMod's nandroid backup thingy. Just boot to ClockworkMod through the update.zip. Most of the errors you will run into can be fixed by placing the apk back where it was originally. I'll put a disclaimer in the OP.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
FriendStream is tied to Sense and Facebook for Mytouch so if you remove it it will cause an infinite loop sync that never ends... grrr
[myTouch 3G Slide General] goodwinm:
Would user installed apps (I'm thinking mainly replacements for system apps like K9 and your favorite social apps) work if copied to /system/apps while it is in rw mode?

Or, would there be a way to pare /system down to under 145M and switch mtdblock3 and mtdblock5? Would this require a modified spl, recovery, kernel? If only there was a good ol' fashioned /etc/fstab.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
I haven't tried your first question yet, but I will later this afternoon. As for the second... Apps2SD ftw... and I think it might be all of the above.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] android007:
Is it also safe (I'm hoping) to remove the associate .odex files?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
Yes. Odex files are an optimized support class for the apk. They are useless without their respective apk.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] android007:
OK guys, just letting you know some things after removing many of the apps:

I removed many of the apps that you guys have, amazonmp3, twitter, and their associated widgets. I believe I removed the FavesWidget.apk and the com.htc.TwitterWidget.apk as well and they still have a "place holder" in the Sense UI > "Widgets"

Basically, for those who removed associated widgets, Long press on screen > Widgets and just look around, youll see some placeholders and if you click, they force close.

But overall, so freakin happy I got some of these apps gone > buh bye AppPack
[myTouch 3G Slide General] ratchetrizzo:
Yes, copying crap from /data/apps to /system/apps work

I just moved a bunch of **** that I use a lot from /data/apps to it and it all still works, so it's a nice way to get more space.

Also, I really like how all the cache files are stored on /data. All your browser cache, market cache and application data is stored there thus reducing the piddly amount of ram HTC gave us to use even more as we use our apps. What BS. *Rolls eyes*
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
I removed SelfHelp.apk with no issue. Then I tried to use Visual Voicemail, but hadn't set it up yet. It requires Self Help to get your account information during the initial setup process. I replaced Self Help to activate it and then removed it afterward. The VVM is stable but I still need to receive a voicemail to make sure.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] eugene373:
Do you Guys want a BarBone Rom? I have one Made and using it, Just not uploaded it was all..
[myTouch 3G Slide General] turboyo:
Im sure everyone would appreciate that lol^ .. what exactly did you remove from it to make it bare bone? any force closes and such?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] android007:
This sounds great. Id love this, which apps have been removed though? And on your ROM, do you have blank or "false" spaces when doing long press > widgets? If not, how on earth did you modify Sense to know?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] mesajoejoe:
Can you give 1 example command doing this procedure. Like just pick any one file/apk w/e and show the command to do so please.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] ratchetrizzo:
mv /data/app/com.biggu.shopsavvy.apk /system/app/

that will put shop savvy into your system/app folder provided you installed it to begin with.

[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
Stocks, News and Weather are tied to the Account Sync and will break it if removed. You can remove the widgets with no problem, but not the actual Apps.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] HebrewToYou:
I figured as much. What a shame...

What about the themes?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
You can take off the themes, but you need to keep at least the one you are using.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] HebrewToYou:
As the OP, do you think you could group the .apk list in such a way that it's clear to people which files correspond with particular apps/widgets/themes?

I think it would make it a lot easier for people to clean up their Slide.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
Sure thing. Just woke up. Was gonna do it last night but I was dead tired lol. I'll throw the themes in the list too.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] HebrewToYou:
A bit off-topic, but have any of you installed SetCPU and used it with any success? Auto-detecting results in some success, but as soon as I reboot the settings are lost and the app gets all wonky.

It'd be nice to know what the safest min clock speed is for this handset/kernel -- I imagine the max is set at 600 MHz until a new kernel is released.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] eugene373:
Can Somebody make a List of the Barebone they would LIke?

Rosie

or No Rosie

Reason why I ask is who I set it up is all.

Thanks,

~Eugene
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
I haven't but I know that Eugene was working on a kernel to up it to 800. Right now most have said SetCPU doesn't work because the CPU is already set to the kernel's max. I would wager that is teh case for now.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] eugene373:
You are correct

&

[myTouch 3G Slide General] HebrewToYou:
I'd love to have the option to try both, Eugene, but I imagine that's a good bit of work for you to undertake. If I had to choose I'd say Rosie simply because the installation of ADW.Launcher will allow for most of the UI to be set aside.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
There is something to Rosie that I like better than ADW tho...

@Eugene I'll try making up a list this afternoon when I get out of me meeting.

[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:

I think they should hire people who understand ROMs and Apps at the main stores and set each person up with the Apps and (wishful thinking) a ROM tailored for their needs...

[myTouch 3G Slide General] bmfc187:
Quick correction:

NatureTheme.apk IS the redrocks theme...there is no .apk for the nest theme...all the mymodes themes are tmobile themes and come in .apk format...except for the Nest theme. Nest is the title given to the default espresso theme, and all the files/images for it are located in /system/framework/com.htc.resources.apk. it has no apk., its built into the espresso UI. it IS the espresso UI, unthemed.

also, some people were saying that you need SelfHelp.apk to setup Visual voicemail for the first time, but you can just remove vvm-signed.apk as well, then go download Tmobile Visual Voicemail from market, it works all by itself...

Hi everyone,

it's been a long time since my last project here on xda, but here I come :) I'm starting a new project and at the beginning I'd like to say that it's a loooong way to finishing it. So please do not ask for eta, because I just can't predict when and if it's going to be finished and released.

My new project is a new UI for WM6.1, 6.6 and 6.5.x. I'm doing ti for VGA but hopefully it will be easy to get it working on WVGA.

Seven UI is based on the new Windows Phone 7 interface. I'm not going to copy it all, I'll try to get some things done better. I just want to keep its style. I know that there are many themes/skins for SPB MS or other interfaces, but I want to build this from scratch, which will be really hard since .netCF doesn't offer access to some system functions or even to the sms inbox!

I had a question for you... have you tried the sub-pixel font rendering used in WP7 into our current mobiles?

I have created a few fonts for Manila but the Zegoe/Segoe Light do not look good because of this. Do you think you can help out on this?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Kamill:
Thanks guys, I really hope to finish this project!

NNagendran, I'm using Segoe WP - it's quite different than Segoe, imo much nicer and it looks good on the screen. Afaik you can't add antialiasing to the system fonts, you just have to use another font. Sometimes enlarging the text makes it look better.
