what rom are you using?

i am actually focusing on the sense version atm but download mrcharlesiv's from his post i am basing mine off of his with few changes

changes being a little further themed

_____________________________________________________________________________

EDIT:

also will have an update later today if not tomorrow with a few changed things

and added a themed dialer and contacts (keeps original dialer also)

added media folder so has ringtones and notifications from epic (optional)

and i'm gonna set it up to remove some apk's like htc music, htc clock, htc lockscreen and mail as they are just duplicates and not needed to have multiple of them

will keep htc gallery as it links with camera
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Jjday7:
Great work on the theme. I love this when I was on cm6 and missed it when I switched to Fresh. I have a couple of questions though. How would I make the notifications bar clear, when you pull it down? Is ther anyway to get the the battery with the number read out like the cm6 rom?

Is there a way to load this without all the AOSP apps?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] samrozzi:
yeah the galaxy s notification bar would be amazing, but seems hard, i just would prefer an updated icon pack.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mrpuffin:
well i did put out an update just now

the app icons are not really changed from what they were (as they are the same as epic with some from the galaxy) and the galaxy s notification bar with the shortcuts is beyond my knowledge so i didn't do that

things changed

removed htc lockscreen (now vanilla lock)

removed htc clock

removed htc deskclock

removed htc Music

removed Mail (still have Email though)

removed htc contacts (People)

kept Htc Gallery as it links to camera

added epic4g themed dialer/contacts

added media as requested (from epic 4g system dump)

changed a few icons but almost all are the same

and i think thats all hope i didn't leave anything out

EDIT:

looking into putting the Stock Android Browser in it +themed (i Can NOT stand the sense browser) -

ACCOMPLISHED

EDIT2:

apperently i can only get the contacts and dialer to show up if i flash something else first then flash this over it so i'm kinda stumped so i'm trying to get that fixed up

I HATE ISSUES LIKE THIS!

they do work but have to be installed differantly (contacts and phone)

_________________________________________________

CM6 release is gonna push back a little as flashing it causes battery to display as just a question mark battery on nightly 9/7
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] samrozzi:
i was wondering, say i apply the all theme and you have an update later, can i just flash the update over the current one? or will doing that mess it up?

also i tried flashing the theme over fresh's new 2.2 rom and no go. just keeps cycling at the fresh evo boot screen
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mrpuffin:
yeah good times gotta fix it for fresh 3.2 and gotta fix the contacts issue and gotta school shop and gotta do some extra work at home haha

i'll see what i can do today

(i tested and built around 3.1.0.2)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mrcharlesiv:
Mine is built off the new OTA.. Did mine flash on the older Fresh? I wonder what changed w/ the new release?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mrpuffin:
alright i have at least the theme and media out now for OTA but flashing apps causes boot-loop

and i have been on cyanogenmod recently so i did not follow sense Roms and was unaware that an OTA was released

i have several problems in the theme that i have separate fixes for but i am hoping to get it incorporated into the actual theme later on

and now that there is an ota i will focus on that rather then the older one but will at least fix it when i have time

and with this update on progress i'm gonna take a break for a while
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bobross:
Looking really nice. I was wondering, is it possible to just pull the App drawer from the Epic4G/Galaxy S to replace the one in Sense? I like the horizontal scrolling for apps, but would like to stick to Sense for everything else. What do ya think?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mrpuffin:
don't think it can be done sorry as it requires alot of programing and makes it harder since sense is closed source and i think touch-wiz is also

so if you want horizontal scrolling you will have to go with touch-wiz or adw-launcher

but interesting idea
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] DG4FREE:
I'm not sure which but either ADW Launcher or Launcher Pro offer a side-scrolling app drawer rather than vertically. I recall having it on my stock rom before even rooting but since haven't used either.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mrpuffin:
Its adw I use launcher pro and it doesn't have it but I have used adw and I know it does do that

Trouble downloading and enabling 4G

Hey guys im fairly new to the whole flashing thing but I have been noticing some issues with 4G and downloading stuff from the market. Im using Freak E Froyo v3I just want to make sure im doing this right. I downloaded the theme for Sense 2.2 and the other flashable contact to make sure the dialer and contacts work. Do i have to do a wipe or anything or can I just flash over everything? Do I need to use the OTA theme?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] samrozzi:
also any word of this working say on flipz new 2.2 rom with the new OTA?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mrpuffin:
so what i understand is the theme is working for you but your having downloading problems on market and 4g

if thats the case then might want to clear your cache

and the ota one if for roms based off of the ota (over the air) (i do not know what that rom is so cant tell you for sure wetehr its the newest ota or not)

i think that answers it but i don't know for sure

umm best bet is to just nandroid backup then flash theme to test it and to confirm

i'd try it and let ya know but probably be quicker for you to just test it yourself and let others know

Now I just need some free time!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JustRuin:
OK

So I have been running through this several times

(Stock Sense 2.2, absolute latest OTA, 3.30...)

I was able to install the apps, but only after removing a bunch of ones that I thought I didn't need. Speaking of which, are some of the supposed be named wrong (Calandar.apk, Phone1.apk)?

In any case, I only left Browser, Calculator, Calendar, DeskClock, Music, Phone, VoiceDialer, and Contacts.

I take this to mean that one of the apps causes issues with the new OTAs.

I have flashed both the theme and the media.

The only things that bother me so far are that, in no specific order:

1. The text of the clock on the lockscreen is the AOSP font. (I was hoping for the font on mrcharlesiv's, but this is not a big deal at all)

2. The USB icon on the notification bar (and perhaps others, not sure, haven't seen them) is still Sense style.

3. The color of the text on in the notifications windows is black.

4. The phone dialer is still the Sense one.

Any ideas?

p.s. sorry about bumping an old thread
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mrpuffin:
yeah sorry i haven't updated stuff much recently and as for the bump i was gonna bump it in the next day r two with a version for cyanogenmod 6.1

incorrect spelling answer is yes and no calendar is misspelled lol but phone1.apk is the themed dialer (themed aosp style one) it's phone 1 so it doesn't overwrite the existing dialer (sense one) and you have both of them

1 don't know the font ur looking at and don't think i'm gonna be changing it

2 usb icon is a quick fix now that i know how to change it and where it is contained

3 not exactly sure what is ment

4 as for the dialer read quoted text below (also goes with phone1.apk explanation on typo)

anywho i have been procrastinating alot recently on updating stuff but i just got my windows reinstalled so i should be able to start fixing stuff up

edit: would fix stuff up now but i gotta leave by 2:00 and be ready and it's 1:20 now
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JustRuin:
Thanks for the response, first of all!

Yeah my bad on the dialer thing; I didn't fully understand what you meant.

About the font on the lockscreen...yeah don't worry about that lol, I was just pointing something out about the difference between yours and charles...but really lol think nothing of it

Cool, cool.

I'll elaborate on what I mean about the color of the text in the notificationd later...I'm at work right now

EDIT:

Ok, so you know how on your second thumbnail, the text for your notifications (email/voicemail/etc.) is black? Is there a way to make it white?

I will donate to you right now because this is very cool and i love it :)

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JustRuin:
It makes your dialer look like this:

and yes, this is for Sense users, not Cyanogen users.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fixxxer2008:
you sure that's the htc dialer and not aosp one? i tired and it did not work for me at all.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JustRuin:
What do you mean by "htc dialer"?

Are you asking if this is the Epic theme that themes the htc dialer?

Did you flash the contact fix first before flashing the theme?

If you didn't, you won't get the theme, nor will your contacts work correctly.

by the way, he renamed the dialer (Phone1.apk) and calender (Calandar.apk) so that they wouldn't replace your current ones...he states that in his latest post

You could try renaming the dialer to see if it works for you

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lildoggs:
In order to get the wallpaper to look properly without zooming in on part of the picture, the picture has to be resized to 960x800, then the wallpaper will look sharp. Try this wallpaper and see if it works for you if it does then the issue is the size of the wallpaper your using.

Ok I just downloaded the wallpaper I uploaded but the size changed. So forget about the idea lol. Just take a wallpaper with a high resolution and use paint the resize it and upload it the your phone. Apply it as a wallpaper and your done.

[Nexus One General] borisb:
Hi All

Thank you for the great work however in order to enjoy the ROMS I will need to have a smaller boot.img in order to flash the roms.

The image must be 2.35 MB at most, A good example is the Enomther ROM that is flashable.

However the CM6 roms are not (except KANG O RAMA).

Since I dont think that someone is going to do it for me, can you at least explain how can I do that?

There are at least 10 more people that check this forum regulary looking for a solution.

Thank you.
[Nexus One General] craigacgomez:
CM6 boot image is just 2.25MB!!!
[Nexus One General] borisb:
OHH yea.... checked it out on his site yesterday, then how come rodriguez's image is bigger?
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
He's most probably using another kernel for CM6, just like MicroMod uses another kernel for TheOfficial.
[Nexus One General] borisb:
OK. How can I use those features with a smaller kernel? Is there a way?
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
1) Ask the kernel / ROM creator to "pack" it to fit in 2.5MB of space.

2) Compile your own kernel and make your own boot.img.

3) Try to mix your desired ROM (for example, Micromod's) with the kernel that fits your limited boot space (for example, Enomther's original). Or you could try to use rodriguez's ROM with CM kernel. To do that mix, replace the boot.img and the WiFi driver - bcm4329.ko - in their locations in the original ROM zip and resign the zip, then flash it.
[Nexus One General] HTCinToronto:
Why the need for a smaller boot.img?
[Nexus One General] craigacgomez:
Many N1s do not allow kernels later than 2.4MB (or something like that)... the kernel does not flash because of bad MTD blocks...
[Nexus One General] borisb:
OK. Thanks.

Can you send me a link with the instructions on how to change and resign roms?

[sorry for being a noob]
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
Unfortunately, I don't have any instructions available anywhere, but you can use some Google searching.

The boot.img resides in the root of the ZIP, the bcm4329.ko is in /system/lib/modules/.

Changing the files in the ROM is easy - ROM is just a ZIP file, you take a ROM you want to change, open it in WinZip / WinRar / your favorite freeware archiver, find the files you want to replace (the ones I've mentioned above), download the original ROM which is the base (Enomther for MicroMod, CM6 for Rodriguez), extract those files from there, drag&drop them into the ROM you're modifying, that's it.

Then you search Google for "android sign zip apk", and you get a couple of guides that show you how to sign ZIPs.

Then you load the ROM and hope it works.
[Nexus One General] borisb:
does not sound complicated

thanks.... I will try that.
[Nexus One General] djmcnz:
Yes, what you need is:

boot.img and everything in /system/lib/modules

It's important that you replace everything in /system/lib/modules with the correct content for the specific boot.img you're using and delete everything else.

My boot.img which is based on Wildmonks BFS 950 kernel supports apps2ext and 720p and should be sufficient for any CM6 rom. It's worth noting that the current one in Kang-o-rama 1.0 Final is not as stable as I would like and I'll be updating it soon.

Since this seems a bit challenging for some rom devs an alternative approach could be:

Create update.zip for small boot image (I can help with this)

Rom dev creates rom update.zip without a kernel (may not boot properly)

Install rom without kernel

Install small kernel update.zip

Or everyone could use Kang-o-rama... ;)

Hi all

Can somebody point me in the direction of the latest signed Froyo update .zip file - you know, one that I can install by copying the zip to the root of my SD card, power off and power on holding down the volume key, go to recovery and 'apply zip from the SD card'?

Also, I assume that if I flash a zip of this type over Eclair I won't need to do a wipe either, is that correct?

hey guys,

i tried to flash the froyo radio to my nexus one, so i could use the new CM6.

after doing a titanium backup and nand, i connected the phone to my computer, logged to bootloader and ran fastboot devices. after i saw the ID i installed the new radio, and adb said everything is OK

after that, i was still in the bootloader and wanted to get into recovery for wiping and flashing from SD card.

i clicked on the recovery and then the weirdness started. first my WIN7 said new hardware was found and didnt install properly and my nexus got stuck on the start screen (nexus 4 coloured symbol and the unlocked gray lock). its been frozen like that for like 30 mins now.

what should i do? can i push the power button? is the radio flash gone bad? can i pull the battery out if all others fail??

please help, feeling kinda scared hehe :)

thanks in advanced for any help...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
You had to reboot after installing new radio.

How did you flash it? Fastboot flash radio radio-something.img, while the phone was in fastboot usb mode (bootloader screen)?

If you flashed it using fastboot and it

comlpeted normally

- go ahead, disconnect it from USB, pull the battery, insert it back and power on the phone. It should boot normally.

after waiting like a hour, i pulled off the battery and was able to get into recovery, and flash the ROM :)

Go to Settings > Display > Animation > No animation

I found this tweak at anandtech. My SGS is now flying. It's amazing. Your SGS performance will at least double after setting no animation.

Turning off animation disables the fading effect when opening and closing apps.

Works on all SGS firmwares. It may not work if you are using the default TouchWiz home.
