Does Cyanogenmod come with a custom kernel?
[EVO 4G General] sgt. slaughter:
Well if I could memic the HTC widget with the clock and weather on the main screen in a non-sense rom I might convert on over. Just using the other launchers I find it troubling to find an equal replacement for some of the widgets, mainly that one since im so used to it.

Open to Any suggestions though.
[EVO 4G General] martouf13:
I am using a non sense froyo rom and use that widget.. Its called the fancy widget..
[EVO 4G General] psychopsilocin:
Google "fancy widget"
[EVO 4G General] myndwire:
ugh...maaaan, don't even remind me :( the weekend went so damn fast, it sucks...

de-sensed my DC 3.2.3 last night though, that was pretty cool. ironically without sense, using ADW/FancyWidget/SwitchPro/etc to replace all of the sense crap eats up like 10-20mb more memory than before, but I'm still tweaking crap. still sort of getting used to ADW compared to sense, a lot is different, but way more configurable. only makes me want cyanogen6 even more ;)
[EVO 4G General] mrmomoman:
Try the home screen of beautiful widgets. For more weather info with some really nice features you can also try Palmary Weather App.

Fancy Widget does what they Clock/Weather widget does as well. You get the fancy animation because that is part of the HTC Sense framework. But it does provide for a nice alternative.

You can get Beautiful and Fancy(not sure if they had to pull it off of market due to HTC asking them too or not) from the market.

You can search for Palmary Weather APK and download it from their site.
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
same here man. today is the only day i got off from work, and now i keep hearing that cm6 rc1 may be coming out tonight. sigh, looks like a long night again haha..
[EVO 4G General] myndwire:
yup. it's been taken off the market, but v1.3 of fancy widget is floating around XDA in APK form. i use this thing too -- way more configurable than the stock HTC weatherclock, and it looks 100% identical. booya, HTC. now if they'd only make more customized ones like Godzon's clocks with the cool shading / no grey transparency, I'd love that. Maybe they will with their 'changes' they're making to comply with HTC's cease and desist.
[EVO 4G General] MagnusRagnarok:
imho, i dont think there would be very many members here on the site,that would flash an ota froyo+sense even if it came out tomorrow, considering all that the devs here put into getting us rooted. I personaly would rather run a developers froyo port than the official release made from source for our device. Lemme think....do i want some buggy sprint hacked crap that has more bugs than a hooker with crabs? ORRRRRR a finely tuned completely customizable rom made by one of the most well known devs around? Not to mention all the other big names here and even the awesome less known devs we have here constantly working to make our devices top of the top and untouched by stock(tech&software wise:D) thanks xda devs +100; FAIL sprint&HTC for trying to control our devices and strip us of our freedom to do as we please(if i wanted that id just buy an idiot-phone)on a device that we all paid dividends for that is capable of SO much more...i cant wait to see what ill be running when/if the official froyo is actually ever released before ragnarok(the end of the world)...not that id ever CONSIDER actually using it:D

:Dthats just my 2cents, and the street value of it...:D​
[EVO 4G General] admorris:
Beautiful Widgets is as configurable as any out there...can make look just like HTC if you like. Has the animated weather and all that jazz as well.
[EVO 4G General] kellybrf:
even though they say its pulled and discontinued, this code still works and you can d/l it

http://androidcommunity.com/fancy-widget-for-android-20100612/

any good contact app to replicate the htc people one?
[EVO 4G General] OrionSX:
Slightly off topic and all, but I find it amusing that a great deal of Windows Mobile development involves tweaking Sense/Manila/TF3D and getting it to work on lesser devices, but the majority of Android development is spent cursing and getting rid of Sense. Irony? But I'm getting sick of Sense too. It bogs the device down so much, and I'm seriously looking forward to some awesome 2.2 speed. Only thing I'll miss is the fullscreen weather animations. I <3 my thunderstorm.
[EVO 4G General] sablesurfer:
LOLz....I love it too. I really like that smaller widget too that I can put on Home screen. Other part of Sense that really makes sense is the little number that shows up on the email icon.
[EVO 4G General] yutlin:
Are there any comparable replacements for the timer, alarm, and stopwatch features of SenseUI for those of us who haven't gone AOSP before? I'm looking forward to trying out Froyo and AOSP but want to avoid loss of functionality.
[EVO 4G General] adamrights:
Of course. You have a standard clock app with alarm features, and then you have a marketplace full of widgets and apps. Try BeautifulWidgets. I personally found the huge clock time a waste since I can already see the time in the top right...I instead use a Gtask widget in that spot that shows my most upcoming tasks.

Coming over from a Nexus One I cannot wait for Froyo/stock Android. I hate the Dialer/People sprint app and don't like Sense.
[EVO 4G General] dglowe343:
Thats usually how things go. Me personally, I'll take a dev Rom over an ota any day. Especially one with sooooo much going into it like CM 6. Is it Christmas.......I mean is CM 6 out yet?
[EVO 4G General] enragedpaza:
Yeah it's out, you can get it at your local walmart
[EVO 4G General] thegame3202:
If I push the worldclock.apk over to CM6, think it would run? I like the way the alarm and such works better.
[EVO 4G General] kellybrf:
oh crap, i forgot that ill be losing the smart dialer with this. that is such a great feature and so integral to how i use my phone. is there anything out there in the market like it?
[EVO 4G General] david279:
dialer one in the market.
[EVO 4G General] muncheroo:
yea i really like the world clock too =D

also does anyone know of the people app is a part of sense?
[EVO 4G General] myndwire:
Hey, I never got to ask... will it be possible to somehow use the rotary lockscreen in this? I wasn't sure if it was an AOSP function or what... I've just been using it on DC and love it :)
[EVO 4G General] kellybrf:
great, thanks!
[EVO 4G General] Negrito:
Well coming from the Hero where toast beat out HTC to a complete 2.1 release. I'd say its quite possible. Especially with all the talent that has an Evo. (toast, flipz, OMJ, Cualkin, cyanogen... etc)

Why do you think they will try to eliminate root? I dont believe they did so when they release the 2.1 update for tthe Hero. Then again I only ran Flipz ROMs once they were available. To me the only benefit of Sense UI is the Flickr integration. (im a photography student) other than that, and the pretty weather animations I really dont miss it. LauncherPro is an awesome home replacemnt, but i may end up switching to ADW, as i understand that comes pre loaded on Cyanogenmod.

guess ill jump on the off topic band wagon (sorry)

only widget im really going to miss is the bookmarks widget. only similar replacement i found was called bookmarks widget but only functions with dolphin browser. anyone else stumble across another alternative? i know i can make a link to a bookmark natively in android but it only show a small favricon and a generic icon. would really like it to have thumbnails like the sense widget. other than that, im ok with loosing everything else in sense1
[EVO 4G General] Negrito:
I think there is an add on for Dolphin Browser HD

[EVO 4G General] jerryparid:
HTC is gonna start making their engineers start patching Android Flash vulnerabilities?
[EVO 4G General] muncheroo:
last question:

does the aosp contacts app automatically merge facebook and google contacts?
[EVO 4G General] DomSim:
uggg lol i mentioned the dolphin add on in my post, please read the whole post before commenting :) i want something similar but for the stock browser if it exists.
[EVO 4G General] OrionSX:
Almost all the stock Android apps are replaced with a Sense version. This includes the Alarm, Messages, Contacts/Dialer, Calendar, etc... most of the functionality is the same on either versions, Sense just makes it look prettier and run slower, and adds things like Facebook/Flickr/Twitter integration a little more seamlessly. When it works as advertised of course. On Windows Mobile its great because the base OS doesn't offer any of that, but Android does so its kind of a personal preference thing. Hell my Droid was faster than my Evo since it had no Sense. Can't wait to deSensitize my Evo.
[EVO 4G General] muncheroo:
so i take it the stock contacts app does facebook integration, just not as seamlessly?
[EVO 4G General] phinnaeus:
I use a 3rd party app to sync facebook pictures to my Contacts, works great. It's called SyncMyPics.
[EVO 4G General] jmlott:
The only thing that I am going to miss from sense is copy and paste. That is the only thing they really did right. Stock android c&p is terrible. I seriously doubt anyone could do it, but if it were possible to pull that out of sense, I would be a happy guy.
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
What is the difference? Do you mean with the stock keyboard or the browser or what?

-------------
[EVO 4G General] muncheroo:
ah very nice thanks!

if anyone else is having trouble finding the app, it's actually called 'syncmypix'
[EVO 4G General] rockky:
absolutely... Sense's is an iPhone like c&p feature..excellent. Really thought it'd be done in Froyo...so far..not so.
[EVO 4G General] Eric-1987:
Ugh I am patiently waiting for this rom.
[EVO 4G General] grkfire:
It does integrate seamlessly with both Facebook and Twitter.
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
Do you just need the Facebook and Twitter apps, or can you sync by default?

-------------
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
i'm guessing we'll be finding out soon enough.. have patience ;)
[EVO 4G General] jmlott:
No, it has nothing to do with the keyboard. If you have a stock device, you can check it out yourself. With sense, you can easily highlight text by holding and dragging. With stock, you have to select a menu option, then select a predefined block. It's clunky and unintuitive.
[EVO 4G General] jpatterson350:
So who thinks this thing is going to drop today/tonight, Yes or No?
[EVO 4G General] Eric-1987:
I dont see it being released today.
[EVO 4G General] jerryparid:
Prove him wrong Cyanogen :eek:
[EVO 4G General] grkfire:
You can sync by default with Facebook since that is integrated. The Twitter app integrates automatically when you dl and sync with it.
[EVO 4G General] paulg1981:
Hopefully today, but I was originally hoping Friday :-)

I guess I will just be grateful when it arrives since I am not doing any work to get it, thanks to all the devs who are hard at work on this project
[EVO 4G General] thenamesian:
I bet it is released sometime tonight or tomorrow night. These people have lives other than just trying to please the masses. Let 'em work and have fun creating something amazing.

[EVO 4G General] Saturn2K:
Come on cyanogen, you can do it! Release it today, even with the camera app bug. We can take it :) (unless it bricks the phone)
[EVO 4G General] herbthehammer:
I hope they unlock the uploading ability from the browser and other things. That's so damn frustrating!
[EVO 4G General] sweteg:
There's already enough begging and demanding in this thread lol. I doubt anyone wants to sift through another 10 pages about a bug due to an early release that cyanogen already said he's trying to fix before the release. Let him do his thing.
[EVO 4G General] Eric-1987:
I would love that. Thats what I woke up today hoping is that this gets released.
[EVO 4G General] dschoenike:
i don't think anything said in this thread, is affecting his work with the rom.
[EVO 4G General] Topgun966:
Rather it not be rushed and have things working :P I can live w/o 4g, 3g in chicago is still pretty fast but need the cameras to work, let him do his thing :)
[EVO 4G General] 1970mueller:
Funny

Sad thing is, there will be 10 pages of additional crap, perhaps 100! You will see....
[EVO 4G General] Eric-1987:
There will definitely be up to 100 pages. Maybe by tonight even.
[EVO 4G General] thenewguy821:
Agreed... I'm in the Chicago area also. The 4g is "broken" on my evo, so even when I tether, I am only using 3g speeds and was shocked at how fast it seems. I can only imagine how 4g will be.
[EVO 4G General] thegame3202:

[EVO 4G General] Saturn2K:
I'm studying by my computer and have his twitter page up with it automatically refreshing.

Also, I agree with others. This thread will reach 100 pages way before the day is over.
[EVO 4G General] Saturn2K:
Thanks for the idea. Sleep is the enemy here, so we need to set up a fund to give Cyanogen amphetamines so he is twice as productive.

3 easy steps before CM6?

Could someone please list the basic steps

and easy links to best prepare our EVO"s for froyo=CM6

i.e.

1) root @ xxx

2) nand @ xxx

3) etc...

If the steps and links are here(PAGE 86?)... it will be easy for me(new-b) to follow the best steps possible to get my dessert plate ready for the master works of new "froyo" by the master chef => "cyano"...

[EVO 4G General] shadowhawk2020:
Will I have to go to 1.47.651.1 to run cyanogen?
[EVO 4G General] phinnaeus:
CM is its own ROM. It doesn't matter what you are coming from, as long as you are NAND unlocked with a recovery you can use to flash new ROMs.
[EVO 4G General] DarkPhoenix:
Most likely CM6 will need the new radios to work.
[EVO 4G General] shadowhawk2020:
That is what I was afraid of...
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
"Afraid," really? You have to flash 2 .zip files. Big deal.
[EVO 4G General] DarkPhoenix:
I agree, it's nothing to be afraid of. It's just like flashing a rom. Super easy.
[EVO 4G General] impactsto:
A few extra files to flash in order to run any of the future ROMs is a pretty small price to pay.

At any rate, I will be OCD with checking the site till I see this ROM downloaded on my desktop!
[EVO 4G General] shadowhawk2020:
After reading it doesn't seem to bad. When I first rooted, I got the missing sd card, and lost usb which panicked me until I got it working again. At the time it was possibly attributed to switching radios, so I have been gun shy to update.
[EVO 4G General] DarkPhoenix:
That's understandable. lol

I am so tired of following this thread lol but I can't stop. I have never had the cyanogen experience!

Dusted off an old laptop and ran SimpleRoot. Installed Fresh 1.0.1 ROM and restored apps/data via Titanium to test. All systems are "GO" for CM6 installation!

Where does one get the latest "radios" (whatever those are) and the proprietary Google apps? Do I back these things up with Titanium and then restore them under CM6?

[EVO 4G General] shadowhawk2020:
I may be an optimist, but I think it would come out sooner rather than later. If it was going to be a week or more I think he would have mentioned it last night when he said it would not come out last night. Especially after saying it would most likely come out this weekend.

But who am I kidding, I would be waiting right here for the next week for it to come out :)
[EVO 4G General] strung:
True.. good point. looks like they added a bunch of code to the camera stuff, since android 2.2 doesn't have support for multiple cameras OOTB. and tweaking and patching a lot of things. pretty impressive to me how quickly they crank that code out! fun to look at the git commits.
