[General Questions and Answers] IGM0937:
I have the HTC G2 Touch (the branded HTC Hero from T-Mobile) and I was sick and tired of actually waiting for the official T-Mobile upgrade for Android 2.1 and decided to actually download and install the official HTC RUU file.

I followed this post "xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=572683" to create a gold card and install the RUU. The RUU I downloaded the was "RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.38_WWE_release_signed_No Driver.exe" from this post "xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=559622".

This RUU was still Android 1.5, however after installing, I used the forwarding of the clock trick to make the phone prompt the first update for Android 2.1. After installing, I was also later prompted in installing the second part of the update OTA that actually installed the Android 2.1 on the phone.

I have to say, so far so good, I really like the OS and it has all the features that I had missing in 1.5, however the HTC News Feed widget and Friend Stream widget seem to be missing from the OS??

I looked everywhere, even the separate HTC option which downloads extra HTC widgets. I also googled this issue online but all I get is headlines that those widgets would be part of the HTC Hero update... BUT I CAN'T FIND THEM?... no one seems to have this problem!

Is it the way I upgraded or does the HTC Hero actually have those features missing?

Please Help, Thank you!

MAJOR UPDATE ON PROGRESS (8/2/10)​

SCREENSHOTS: preview only, final product will change / be improved

​

(*Any dithering artifacts are invisible to the end user when looking at the phone*)

I ORDERED MY NEW PHONE!

For those that don't know, this theme has been delayed for weeks because I am a clumsy bastard and shattered the screen on my phone.

I punched my bank account in the face and my new phone is coming on Thursday (8/5/10)

________________________________

This started off as just the clocks....but it has become very popular and people are asking lots of questions about other parts of the featured screen shot so I am going to release the FULL theme here.

It will most likely be a 5 step process that I will guide you through. A lot of this work is modified versions of other peoples mods which are in themselves modified versions of HTC or Microsoft software.

I have the knowledge to make my own cabs and make everything an easy install, but I do not want to steal anybodys work and pass it off as my own, so I may simply post links to the mods needed, then post my graphics that will make this theme.

So this weekend, when I update this page with a HOW TO on how to install this theme, you will have to do this...

1.) You will install the proper rom

2.)You will then install a few cab files

3.)You will then copy some graphics files to your phone and install a few more cab files

and you're done.

My skills lie in USER EXPERIENCE DESIGN (aka UX design). I know a bit of coding for Windows Mobile 6.5.x and I know a bit of Manila coding. But I am an expert at every single Adobe Program and have a knack for making graphics go well with any style UI.

______________________________________

WHAT IS THE NAME OF THIS THEME?

The temporary name I came up with is "Urban Vandal"

For anybody who knows who the graffiti artist "Banksy" is...I am a huge fan. I wasn't really thinking of Banksy's work when I made this theme, but when I tried to think of a name, I thought of Banksy.

Urban Vandal seems to fit BUT...

I want you guys to try to come up with a name

Either post a name in this thread or PM me with a name you think fits and I will probably pick one of your names instead of "Urban Vandal"...it's just something I thought of very quickly.

Just so you know everything is custom and not stock for the rom...font...font color...the clocks...all my stuff
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Rutster:
Hi jquill,

Really looking forward to this clock.

Any ideas when you will be releasing it please?

Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jquill:
Yes I have very little time on my hands I work in advertising and design in Boston. I just got out of school and I'm currently trying to land a job so as soon as I can I'll get this up. Even though I could post the files its not as perfect as it looks. The minute and hour hands need to be updated to the actual ones the watch has and theres no second hand. Plus when you swipe it looks kind of jagged as do the edges around the clock right now. Anyway, despite how much I like these I want it to be up to par for mass consumption :cool:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jquill:
Just so you know its not that I dont WANT to put them up right now its just that I am extremely busy.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Rutster:
No probs Jquill. I fully understand. Hopefully you'll find time soon.

Also, any chance you could send my your bottom softkey bar please (the two green boxes).

Many thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jquill:
Softkey bar in THAT theme is set to just the plain white bottom. The two green boxes come from a modified WM6.5.x theme, coupled with a cab that eliminates the "ok" and "start" softkeys leaving just the two softkeys. Looking to post everything soon. This is my fav look for windows...no need for a start menu softkey on the HD2.

I may change the title of the thread once I release the clocks because I already have a diff post as you know for the wallpapers. This post will probably contain the eco drive digital clock, custom analog clock (with reflecive numbers and black border), custom 6.5.x theme, font changing utility, and font color change instructions.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jquill:
So I have a very very very very....very very very very....very very very very....very very very very....sad update.

Long story short...I shattered the screen on my phone over the weekend.

Gotta order a new one for $327.99 directly through T-mobile. T-Mobile cut me a good deal because I didn't have insurance so they let me do an early upgrade. Still expensive but better than paying full price.

This is the part where I put a sad face and wait for my next paycheck...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] birkoffsjunk:
Very sad news :(

I take it, it wasn't possible to get a factory repair?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jquill:
T-Mobile USA does not offer any sort of factory repairs...because the factories for HTC are not in the United States. In the states we mainly get out phones covered through a company called "Assurion". Unfortunately, T-Mobile stipulates that you MUST add the insurance feature onto your plan for $7 a month within two weeks of buying your phone. I didn't get it right off the bat and now I'm kicking myself in the TEETH.

So T-Mobile USA does not offer any sort of factory repair program

I did not have insurance on my phone (If I did it would have been $100 for a new HD2)

But T-Mobile still agreed to give me the phone for half the unactivated price, which in my book, is a good move on their part.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jquill:

EVERYTHING in this theme will be available for download (both original files and cabs for everything / pieces of the theme) the moment I get my new phone. My phone is broken, I live in the U.S., and I don't have insurance...I am ****ed.

I like your customised chucky rom.

hopely everything gonna be alright.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jquill:
So...

I am getting a new HD2 this week so I can continue working on my themes!

Finally...T-Mobile let me split up the cost of the phone over my next 4 bills, so I don't have to pay $400 all at once for a new HD2.

Cost of phone + express shipping + taxes = $400

Kind of expensive but it's a brand new HD2 not refurbished and it's equal with the best price I've found online for a brand new in box hd2 with no contract. I'm happy with it.

UPDATES COMING THIS WEEKEND
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jquill:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jquill:
UPDATE

My new phone has arrived. Albeit one day early! Already flashed the newest Chuckyrom (Tabtastic, U.S. version).

Lets just say my phone is always going to wear protection from now on.

This weekend is still looking good for this theme to be released.

When I release it I may not include it right away, but I am going to get around to making a custom icon set. And then maybe a taskbar or two....

What I can tell you will be different from what you see in the screenshots....is the manila graphics themselves, that's really what I'm going to work on next. Polishing off the clock won't take that long. The GTX team did an amazing job as everybody knows but there's always room to build.

Right now I'm just happy my phone works!

I appreciate all the interest in this theme and it will be well worth the wait!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] birkoffsjunk:
Nice one, glad you got your phone :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jquill:
It is nice having a BRAND new phone...and being able to flash a Chucky Rom onto it as the first :cool: I feel so cool

For real though your roms are amazingly stable. I have never taken the next step to start creating my own roms but your seems extremely stable and therefore, must be a great kitchen to work with.

This theme is pretty deep. I feel like it needs its own rom, I might give it a go if I have time. Thanks for the roms!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jquill:
Currently testing new roms...

If anybody knows of a good BLUE 6.5.x taskbar let me know...creating my own taskbar is a bigger pain in the ass than I thought. I know how to do it, but it's a painfully slow process the way I'm doing it.

but due to the age of it, its very old, it runs but some of the icons are missing and the existing ones are kind of double the size (horizontally) - is there a kind of "compatibility mode" like in windows for old apps to run?? or, is it just too old-a-piece of software - period.

Anyone got any ideas....

[Galaxy S I9000 General] miker71:
I quite like the theming too.

What I don't like is that Samsung have messed with the stock Music Player and Clock App and others - this breaks other apps that assume the stock versions are installed. For example, the Samsung app won't get scrobbled by Last.fm and the Clock app, well, where's the frickin clock??!! (Yes you can install Better Clock from the market if you like force closes when pressing the music button, etc ...)

Overall I don't mind the theming, it's the broken functions that irritate me the most (I was spoilt with Froyo on my N1 ...)

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blas4me:
Just tested, and it's true

I removed the gmail apk because it didn't make sense having email & gmail, so I synced my gmail in the email app so I can manage all my accounts at once. After reading your thread I pushed it back and sent myself a apk file, and it displayed a install button, when I viewed the same message in the email app, it only gave the option to view, and it would'nt view the file. But you can install apk files from your gmail app. That's why I read the forums, always learning something new about my wonderful phone. Thanks:cool:
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zephyron:
really? damn all I get is "preview" when I test send myself an apk... Do I need to turn it on in settings somewhere? Does it matter that Im on CM6 RC?

you need to update your google apps. cm doesnt include them. use the one imfloflo posted in the CM nightly thread
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zephyron:
I have updated to the latest gapps, I flashed the one cyan posted on the official cm6-rc1 thread and Im assuming the gapps link in the nightly thread and the official cm6 thread are the same. I know gmail is updated because when I send a picture attachment to myself, there is a "download" and "preview button. It just seems like it wont play nice with apk attachments.

Also another question, when using the "download" in gmail for pictures, do your downloaded files get renamed to downloadfile.jpeg?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danguyf:
Yeah, and my attached APKs get saved as "downloadfile.apk".

I don't know if it's a coincidence or because of Cyanogen's Froyo rom, but ever since the 11th, I've had H a lot more often than 3G on my Nexus one.

I noticed H within a couple hours after flashing Cyanogen's RC1 Froyo rom and it's been mostly H with some 3G and E here and there.

Is H faster? I did a speed test* on H and got just under 1Mbit. I don't remember what I got on 3G last time I tested (Months ago).

*I was using the Xtremelabs Speedtest

Edit: I forgot to mention, that I've never seen H before Cyanogen's mod. I've used stock roms all the way up to Froyo before the 11th and only had 3G max.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jep4444:
the stock rom doesn't report H, it continues to show 3G, the only way to determine if one is on H in the stock rom is in the info panel(a ping test will cause it to switch from UMTS to HSDPA)

Thanks for the reply!

In speed, is 3G faster than H? I know T-Mobile was rolling out HSPA+ but that was supposed to run 7MBit (I think).

So I love froyo and for the past week that I've had it (via ota) it has been really great, but today I began having these sudden problems:

I can't install certain apps (market or sideloaded), even though I have plenty of room for them.

Random apps that are normally stable just crash out of the blue.

The phone just keeps slowing down and things are taking longer than they should for both 2.1 and 2.2.

The phone crashed today, meaning it decided to reboot on its own accord, once when I was running a few apps at once (something that I do almost every time I pick up the phone) and was switching between them, the second time was when I had some background processes and I was browsing the web.

I was just wondering if anyone else was experiencing these problems, and if you are did it just happen suddenly one day like me or was it from the beginning? I also want to know if anyone has suggestions or a diagnosis that I should consider before emailing google.

Thanks for all the help,

Liam
