so how did u get it to work?
[Captivate General] jbcap43:
Well apparently I didn't actually install the lag fix... after you install the ext2 files, install the lag fix v1!

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zwade01:
I'm using the latest version of xtrSENSE and would like to know if this is possible. Gohamstergo's tutorial will not work for this since this ROM is deodexed, therefore does not include HtcLockScreen.odex. Ya think I could just pull the .odex from another ROM and stick in in there and have it work?

BTW I don't want a stock/nexus lock screen, I like the Sense one :)

Thanks a lot man! Guess I should've searched "DE-ODEX'D" instead of "deodexed"... lol

i changed the smd 0603 leds under the home, back and menu buttons. (soldering looks more messy in my picture).

very easy to do if you have had experience with 0603 components. :) what do you guys think.
[Streak 5 General] uberamd:
Good job, looks nice!
[Streak 5 General] flumps:
good job brah! very impressive.
[Streak 5 General] coldfire2:
can I ask what the part numbers you used for the LEDs?
[Streak 5 General] tomqman:
There just surface mount led size 0603
[Streak 5 General] flumps:
on a completely unrelated note i see your from newport. im going to assume youve already seen this:)

[Streak 5 General] flumps:
heh, my bad :) small world, im in gosport :D

i really like this mod. how long did it take to mod it?
[Streak 5 General] tomqman:
Only took just over 5mins

So good he said it twice! :) looks nice m8.

If we're making the world smaller, I'm from Cowes. Keeping on topic, yeah very cool mod. Question is, how to make them flash when there's email or a message waiting?
[Streak 5 General] drstock:
Looks nice! How do you figure out the polarity on surface mounted leds?
[Streak 5 General] Muo:
Gorgeous! Very cool, thanks for sharing.
[Streak 5 General] AuirR:
Good mod.

Looks more colorful. :D
[Streak 5 General] tomqman:
The plan was to check using the led I took off(they have a tiny arrow on the bottom.) But also the board is marked under the led with a bracket to show the negative. So just solder the led with the arrow aiming towards that
[Streak 5 General] captainstu72:
I don't have a streak... yet... but this mod is sweet. So much better then seeing white all the time... makes me wonder if there is a way I can do similar on my hero.

Thanks for the info on polarity arrows for SMDs as well. Thats once less thing to google now!

(and small world - I'm from Fareham...)
[Streak 5 General] Jancy10:
Is this kind of mod possible on the Nexus? How great would this be!! lol good job btw, it looks awesome....
[Streak 5 General] illmatic75:
sorry but the logical question that comes to my mind is ....why ??

:p
[Streak 5 General] jdmnash:
I thought different led's drew different amps thus requiring you to also swap out the resistors.
[Streak 5 General] lordskaled:
The logical answer is... why not?

I might have to get myself some red LEDs... go for that evil look :P
[Streak 5 General] jmpak:
Has anyone tried doing this using ultraviolet SML0604 LEDs?
[Streak 5 General] DMax99:
wow...looks NICE :)
[Streak 5 General] gorlanda:
How can i get this?

ultraviolet SML0604 LEDs
[Streak 5 General] da_jojo:
nice job :)

i like this white leds a lot so i keep em.

but if any of you want to change the leds on the device you dont need to worry about the resistor or voltage as these are adequate for white leds so should do fine for other color leds as long as the parity is correct.
[Android Apps and Games] Uppy:
Recently bought an Android 7 inch screen tablet and I'm really loving it, however I

just bought abduction and it sorta works fullscreen but only in landscape mode so the tilt sensor is way off. any way to get this and labrinth (a ball tilty game, incase you didnt know) to play fullscreen in portrait mode? a reg tweak maybe? this would make the movements correct rather than reversed/inversed at a 90 degree angle.

Just made a quick image to show what I mean.

as you can see the ball isss technically moving in the correct direction if it was in portrait mode. anyway to for android to run the game the correct way up?
[Android Apps and Games] lambstone:
Yeah, which tablet did you buy? I saw many reviews saying that the recent tablets using Telechips 720mhz processor have problems with the accelerometer.
[Android Apps and Games] Uppy:
It'd the rockchip "dual core" apad with red LED the accelerometer works fine and the game is responding correctly to the movements, its just the game is rotated clockwise 90 degrees.

I want to rotate the game counterclockwise so I can hold the tablet upright, this will solve the issue.
[Android Apps and Games] Uppy:
bump.

Surely someone can answer this question? Don't let me down guys.
[General Topics] toothyXdip:
I've had the same cingular SIM card for over 5 years and I just ordered a new phone (Not sure if it matters but its the Palm Pixi Plus). In the tracking information it says that it's coming with a "Various SIM" which I'm guessing is just a new SIM card. I would like to update to the new card and I was wondering if I would be able to just copy over the numbers from my old card onto the phone then copy them onto the new one and delete the numbers off the phone. If this isn't the best way any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks
[G1 General] danez123:
Hi guys i am in the Uk and my Tmobil G1 is on ver 1.0, what can i update it to and how please.

It started off as 1.6, but after trying update to 2.2 and getting stuck in a loop at the end i tried to get back to 1.6, but somehow have ended up with 1.0. lol.

So any help please, i have searched the net, but everything i find is to do with the U.S version.

Please help if you can.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Calkulin:
For those that want to remove the Sense launcher & widgets from any ROM, this zip will do just that.

Make sure you already have a 2nd homescreen app installed before flashing because if you don't, the phone

WILL NOT

boot

Also do a backup before flashing
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mattrb:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] nebenezer:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MSmith1:
Haven't tried this yet but, nice work either way.

Do you have a list of what this flash removes? I've done this manually and there is A LOT of crap to get rid of. Want to see what this flash specifically removes if possible.

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bacdoliljo:
Yes, please. I would like a list of which files this specifically removes. I'm picky like that. I'm always a little weary about running things like this without knowing exactly what it is doing.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bacdoliljo:
we're not all as gifted as you... thanks.

Is everything running properly with all the HTC stuff removed? Do accounts sync properly, do apps such as alarm clock work properly, etc?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jerryparid:
This only removes the Launcher and Widget?

Not HTC Email, Calendar, and other apps right?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bacdoliljo:
from the list in the previous post, it looks like this only removes the widgets and launcher. all apps should still be there. hmm...

changing launchers pretty much removes access to all widgets anyways, so there really isn't any need to remove the widgets apks unless you really need the space. i thought this removed the apps. oh well..
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] gqstatus0685:
I think even though you change launchers Sense still runs in the background. I'm using CM6 and I'm not missing Sense. My battery is amazing with heavy use. I think its partly due to him getting rid of it.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bacdoliljo:
I just flashed this. It changed my clock time and messed up all my widgets. no clue what else it might have messed with
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] steelfatboy1:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] thenewguy821:
On the contrary... This makes so LITTLE sense.... :p
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] felacio:
I've noticed in the past when using. Autostart to disable some of HTCs things from starting up (like FriendStream) that ill get terrible battery life do to "Suspend" eating up more and more cpu time. Does this happen with this for anyone?

...in 1943, I killed a drifter.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] T Mac:
This sounds awesome. If it works, I will be going back to Fresh EVO from CM6. Anyone try this with Fresh yet? Sounds too good to be true.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] felacio:
I'm using it with BakedSnack 1.5 right now. Seems to be working fine. No idea behavior. Except upon first reboot after flashing the zip all my widgets loaded with "problem loading widget" but re-adding them fixed that.

I am getting an increase in "suspend" could usage though. I'll see how it goes at the end of the day. It's bad when its above 10 percent. And really bad when its 30 percent. Which it has gotten in the past. It's at 3.8 percent

Right now

Nice very easy/simple but yet very effective and efficient.

script ran less than 10 secs for me and all sense crap are gone. I can't stand the Sense UI :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] felacio:
It's funny.. when I first wanted the HD2. I LOVED how sense UI hid all of WM6.5s ugliness. But windows mobile, in the end, kept me away.

So I saw EVO with Android was coming out.. and it had Sense too!! I couldn't wait!!

But once I found there where homescreen replacements.. especially LauncherPro. (Which I love so much I bought!) I'm like.. "get this Sense crap OFF MAH PHONE!! "

...in 1943, I killed a drifter.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] twigums:
Whats the over all feel on this guys? Work well or having some problems still?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
oh nice great work caulk. I have my own script i was working on to release on the boards (removes pretty much all sense htc widgets and known ok apps) but looks like you beat me too it. If you dont mind I may take a look at the unsigned version and see what all you have being removed and if my script adds any value since it takes it to a pretty barebones system (for a nonASOP rom).
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jaypeezee:
What's the verdict guys that have run the script...? I'm looking to permanently replace sense with launcher pro but don't wanna run into any issues. Plus, I need all features/apps working including gmail.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] PhantomApollyon:
It definitely works but there is a good bit more that can be removed, I need to make a list. I always get rid of the twitter, facebook, footprints, friend stream, and all the other garbage social networking. The sprint stuff is all safe to dump as well.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jdmsohc22:
Did you have any issues with this messing with your GMail and such..??
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jaypeezee:
Since everyone was taking forever to report back, I took the plunge !:eek:

However, happy to report - NO PROBLEMS !:D

First, I installed Launcher Pro and set that as my primary launcher, loaded the Zip on my SD and booted into recovery. Flashed the Zip, wiped the Dalvik-cache twice, and rebooted.

GMAIL pushes instantly as it did w/ Sense, Exchange working w/o problems... I have yet to encounter a problem (knock on wood). If I come across any, i'll report back - so far so good!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] playya:
I have been running this on a couple roms for a week or so and with absolutely no issues at all. Hey if you are worried just nandroid you current rom, load up a launcher run the zip and see what happens. Not like this is WinMo and we are screwed guys. IMO - 2 thumbs up with no side effects...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] cruecu:
I flashed this about 5 minutes ago. I'm running latest fresh rom with netarchy kernel. I had already removed most Sense stuff, but I don't see where this removed anything else. Am I missing something?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] m4rk0358:
Flashed this earlier this afternoon and my phone seems to run a bit smoother. Perhaps a placebo effect? **shrugs**

Running Baked Snack 1.8 with Kings cfs #11.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jladronka:
Ran this today and have experienced no adverse effects thus far. Running Virtuous Custom Kernel v2 and Virtuous 3.1.

Have also removed quite a few other apks, applications and widgets and have experienced no issues.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] unvivid:
Did this last night on Fresh 3.3.0.1 with King CFS #11. I did not clear dalvik and had to re-add my Widgets. But otherwise fine. Certain functions do load faster (a couple of application pick menus) and free memory did go up a couple of MBs. All in all just what I was looking for. All of the other scripts remove the default apps (which are the whole reason I'm on Sense vs. CM6).

Very Happy, Thanks Caulk!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Death-M0nk:
Flashed this on Myns' 2.2 after setting LauncherPro+ as my default launcher, worked amazing. No problems here, thanks for the zip :D
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Mac N Ts Daddy:
Good Bye Sense UI. Excellent job.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] LoungeLizard:
I just flashed it on the same ROM and got all kinds of problems. Phone would never recognize SD card, programs took forever to load or force closed. Now I have restored the nandroid I did right before I flashed, and all of my settings and programs are GONE! I can't even get Launcher Pro to download from the market, says incompatible update or something like that
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Death-M0nk:
That's really weird... all this script does is remove rosie + widgets. It shouldn't erase data or cause any kind of corruption. Only thing I can think of was LauncherPro wasn't properly set as the default launcher. Did you make sure you cleared defaults for Rosie and set "use this action as default" when it asked for LauncherPro or Sense? I know that's caused some problems for people.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] radar5:
Worked great for me. I had used another sense removal + apps script, but didn't realize it was going to take out my flashlight, teeter, etc. This one did the job perfectly.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] groovdafied:
This is cool that it will remove the launcher, does this mean it'll remove HTC's copy and paste funciton? I really like that feature.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] antiphon:
Spare Parts was showing 100% wake time for me. Replaced my old services.jar and it went back to normal.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Michealtbh:
Im getting a better Linpack score with Sense running than with it removed running ADWlauncher. Back to sense it is
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] snovvman:
The script appears to remove the Sense-related apps and data. If they were not removed, some of these components will load/run even if Sense is not the default lanucher.

I can see in task managers that, for example, Sense Plugin Manager gets invoked by something and runs in the background.

Question is, how about those scripts or hooks that are configured to invoke/spawn these Sense services? I'm guessing they will still try to load these apps, but the .apks will no longer be there. Doesn't this cause some battery/CPU overhead?

Is there a way to fully remove any references that would try to lanuch Sense at all? Previous to this, I had some success with Autostart, but it was not a complete solution.

As an aside, is there a way to completely remove Carrier IQ and related stuff without affecting the rest of the phone?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] DirkStorck:
If I run that script do I than still have the dialer from HTC ?

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Nnyan:
You should still have the dialer (at least I still did).
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] omegasun18:
yes you will have the dialer. This script mainly removes the sense ui and the htc widgets. All other apps and those needed to run the basic functions are left in tact.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Death-M0nk:
Does this script work the same for a Sense 2.0 based ROM as well? If not, does someone have a way to find out what things have been added/removed in the new Sense ROMs so that I can modify it.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] :
Thank you

Thank you

God thank you

sooo sick of sense
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] neodorian:
Why not just install a non-Sense ROM? I am also not a fan of Sense (never runs anywhere near as fast as I want) so I just use Cyanogen or MIUI. I'd worry that removing Sense from a ROM with the Sense framework integrated would just cause problems.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Dstroya:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] jalai:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Ep1cF4il:
will this work on any phone?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ritalin:
I stumbled across and interesting fact the other day that I had never noticed. Picasa will allow you to upload video. As a bonus the max file size is 1gb per video on PC (for some reason the Picasa software on Mac is limited to 100mb:confused:), sorry Mac user.

Once the video is uploaded Google converts the file to Flash. This is exactly the same principal as YouTube, but there is no video length cap. It may take some time for the file to be converted. In my experience with a 250mb avi episode of Weeds, it took about 20 minutes to upload the file and for it to be converted for playback. I do have a very fast Fiber based connection so the times may be different for those with cable or DSL.

Once its uploaded and ready to play its as simple as going into the Gallery app and clicking on the video you want to play. The quality is just about perfect and streams without issue on 3g.

Now for the downside. Picasa only gives you 1gb of storage for free. The prices for additional storage are not too bad though as you can see below.

20 GB ($5.00 USD per year)

80 GB ($20.00 USD per year)

200 GB ($50.00 USD per year)

400 GB ($100.00 USD per year)

1 TB ($256.00 USD per year)

2 TB ($512.00 USD per year)

4 TB ($1,024.00 USD per year)

8 TB ($2,048.00 USD per year)

16 TB ($4,096.00 USD per year)

Now for the upsides to this problem. As it stands right now If you decide to not pay for your storage again next year, Google will NOT remove your files. You simply can not add more files.

Additionally you CAN add more then one Google account to your phone and have it sync properly.

The best part about this is that it will play flawlessly on ANY android that has the new Gallery. I might be incorrect but it needs to be the Google gallery as the HTC version on my friends phone does not show his picasa folders. I have tested this on my G1 running 2.2 and the video plays flawlessly.

I currently have a few friends and we are going to chip in on getting 1tb and start dumping our movies on there. Anyone else interested? Hit me up on PM if so.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] TheBrandonWRX:
That is very cool. Good find. I am not certain I would trust my "library" online due to the potential legalities. For the money this would be a simply trouble free solution. I am still hoping someone looks down a server variation for people to use from their media servers\centers. I would feel more comfortable with that.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ritalin:
I agree, but since this folder would NEVER be made public it should not raise any flags. I hope. ;)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] kizer:
I'm wondering how long it would take to transfer 4TB. :D
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] bdveteran18:
How young are you??? Lol. Might be waiting a while.

Good find. I don't see a problem with legalities if they are put in a private folder. I will try this with some of the movies on my computer and report back
[EVO 4G General] Stickboy46:
Is anyone else having issues with the Market/Gmail. I flashed several different roms and keep getting the "cannot establish a reliable data connection" message when trying to set up my gmail. I did hard resets, data resets, everything. Finally i did a nandroid restore so i can at least have my contacts and i still cant sync my gmail or get into the market. All other data and email accounts work fine.
