If you modify Rosie, you can tweak the default Sense launcher to look the way you want, AND stilll have access to the HTC widgets.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kjjb0204:
I guess I'm still confused, as you can still change the launcher and still have access to htc widgets without modifying rosie. Is it a theme? Is is a full Sense UI replacement? I'm just not grasping it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bcgaynor82:
From all I've gathered through this community, Rosie is like a theme on steroids - HTC uses it as a key piece of branding across nearly all their devices. In addition to being the main user interface in terms of widgets, buttons, launcher, etc it also includes an number of hooks and tweaks into core Android itself designed to make the experience more friendly for non-geek users (no insult implied!).

There are two main camps when it comes to Rosie - some dislike it since it adds bulk to the simplicity of vanilla Android, while some others love it for it's prettier user experience and all its widgets. I personally am in the former camp and have learned to love AOSP vanilla.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zoon0n:
Actually, you can't. If you change the launcher to something like Launcher Pro (which I <3), you can't use the stock HTC Widgets for FriendStream, Mail or more popularly that beautiful 4x2 Weather+Clock. Granted, if you buy Launcher Pro Plus you can get very similar social widgets, and if want that clock Beautiful Widgets is the way to go if you ditch Rosie for LPP.

Rosie, in simplest terms, is the black bar at the bottom of your homescreen. She gives you access to your app drawer, dialer and settings - and if you take her away, she takes the HTC Widgets with her. However, all other HTC Sense UI elements, such as the lockscreen or the black status bar all stay in place.

Rosie is just the launcher. She is in charge of your homescreens.

As previously mentioned, the reason people modify her is they don't want to lose the HTC Widgets for whatever reason (too cheap for LPP + BW?), but they want to have a custom look or replace the settings option with say the browser.

That clear it up?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vernox701:
Did for me.... Thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kjjb0204:
Absolutely. Thank you! The term Rosie didn't come up on any Android glossaries I found online. You should submit your description...

On a side note, I was a devout BB user for years and I feel like a kid again learning this whole new OS from scratch. I was as deep into BB as many of you are in Android, so just making the change was a huge leap. Some people close to me think I'm obsessed with technology, but for me it's what I find interesting and fun and challenging.

[Android Software Development] elgo:
I am looking into starting a project that will result in a robust multitrack recorder/MIDI sequencer for Android. I am thinking that Ardour, Rosegarden or Audacity could be used as a foundation for this project. I know that they are very different from what runs on Android due to X11 and other factors, however.

I am not a great coder but I am a producer and musician who uses similar programs on OSX and Linux, and I would love to talk to any coders who are interested in helping me me this into a project. We could make an Android multitrack that rivals anything the iPhone/iPad has to offer, and which can take advantage of the current explosion of Android hardware, including the Galaxy S Series, the Droids, and the upcoming tablets, which all offer ample power and memory for such a project.

Is anyone interested?

EDIT: The above programs are not going to be effective since Android uses Dalvik, but there is an open source multitrack written in Java: "http://frinika.appspot.com/" - It is fairly robust. We would need to completely rewrite the GUI at a minimum for Android.
[Android Software Development] sergioalvarezmac:
WOW!!! I wish I knew programming, but...:(

I hope you manage to do it, seriously. I'll pay for something like that. I'm a happy Ableton Live user, and I hope one day I can make riffs or patterns while I wait for the bus, etc...

Good luck with this project!
[Android Software Development] elgo:
Sergio, it has to be done, whether by myself and whomever chooses to join me, or by somebody else... so of course I would rather it be us! Hopefully some gifted coders will be down to become involved with this and we can make it a reality.
[Android Software Development] scrizz:
maybe this could start like beatmaker for iPhone.

BeatMaker is Siick.

That's one of the programs i miss from the iPhone

;)

http://www.intua.net/products/beatmaker
[Android Software Development] elgo:
Scrizz- that sounds great - it could start out with a focus on MIDI rather than audio. Now we just need some coders who want to be involved!
[Android Software Development] niraj87:
We do have some apps similar to the beatmaker for Android n they're koool

- RD3 Groovebox

[Android Software Development] Scott Spillers:
A robust professional audio recorder/editor for Android would be a killer app! There is a huge void in the Android Market for pro audio applications.
[Android Software Development] dajbyco:
Another vote for me - I'll definitely buy such an app. But good piano roll has to be included! I'm not good in singing - I do most of work in piano-roll (Cubase).

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] starfcker69:
What the OP is missing in the post is the word notification.

The top battery led indicator (see page 16 of the G2 user manual "Notification LED") doesn't flash as notification of missed calls, e-mail, etc and a fix should be available soon. I contacted HTC and that's what they told me.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] starfcker69:
Trackpad notification indicator

One more thing, HTC refers to it as a Trackpad, not "Digital track ball".

Try the app noLED. Not perfect, but a decent alternative work-around.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] InGeNeTiCs:
I'd be careful with this...this was made for the amoled screens and it worked well because it only needed to light that small portion of the screen. lcd's are backlit. This has the potential to kill your battery crazy fast.

I love this work-around. I only use it for texts tho, but have yet to see any battery drain.

All credit goes to Slayher for the install method used by this script. Credit to Karnovaran for making the install process easier . Also got lazy and just gutted DarkOnions dooverclock.sh to make this script, so if it looks similar there is a reason.

Was really tired of constantly reinstalling the FM radio after switches to new roms. All the reinstalling was done mainly to see if it would magically work better on new releases.

So here it is if anyone cares.

Linux Only.

1. Open terminal

2. Cd To download directory

3. sudo chmod +x Zed* (Not sure if needed 100%)

4. ./Zed_Radio.sh

5. Rock out with your FM radio..... if it works.

[Captivate General] ShaneS429:
Let me first say I'm writing this on my Captivate now, so it's not completely fried like you may think.

Earlier today I plugged in a flash drive to have it not work on my pc. I plugged it in a different pc and nothing so I assumed it just died after 4 years. I then plugged in my captivate so I could mount it real quick and get my homework on there to get to class. Now this time I got the errot message "usb not recognized." I installed drivers, restarted, and even reinstalled windows , and still the same problem.

I then tried on my bothers pc and it still said not recognized. At this point, I had my brother buy me a flash drive on his way home from work today. Took it out, plugged it in his pc, worked fine. Plugged it in mine, worked for 10 seconds, took it out and theus b connector was really warm. Reconnected to his pc to get the"not recognized" error again.

I took apart my old flash drive and it smells and had a burnt spot on a chip, my guess the usb controller.

Now anything plugged into my usb ports get fried and stop being recognized.

My phone still works but anytime I mount it via usb it can't recognize. No doubt the pc fried the usb controller chip in the phone.

would I be able too take this back to att? if they open it up they will most likely see a burnt chip on the board some where, equaling hardware failure, which they can't say that I caused. I also rooted my phone and deleted the att crapware. Any way to completely eeyore my phone to factory? Keep in mind I cant mount this phone any more so I'd have to download any files straight to the phone.

Thanks
[Captivate General] ShaneS429:
I should also add that I had an external microsd card in my phone. After the while incident that I think fried my phone. The microsd no longer appears in my phone to mount, un mount, or see available space. But if I take the micro sd out and put it in a usb card reader it still works fine. It only can't be read if its in the phone, this leading me to believe something fried internally with regards to the usb controllers and what not
[Captivate General] derekedw:
You could probably get away with a warranty replacement if you don't mind being dishonest.

#1) I doubt they would open it up and see the problem

#2) how can they prove that a hardware malfunction with the phone didn't cause it?
[Captivate General] ShaneS429:
Im going in on friday to see what they can do. It wasn't like I was hacking it or modifying the hardware, just plugging it in got it fried. Even tho it was my pc that caused it, I guess they can't ever prove it was my pc or that the hardware didnt short out on its own.

So will odin restore me to stock and give my att apps back? Can I do it without access to a pc since I can never mount my phone any more?

recently my screen has stopped locking when i stop using the phone. if i press the power button, it will go black and will lock. if i use the phone (call, message, anything) and just put it down, the screen dims slightly but does not go black or lock, i just have to touch the screen and it brightens. i have tried setting the screen timeout for different lengths of time, but that didn't help. any ideas?

another example is when the alarm goes off in the morning, i will snooze and have to press the power button to get the screen to go black.

thanks!

[HD2 General] reijkelhof:
Suddenly, youtube didn't want to open, claiming too little memory.

I checked and saw I had only 1.3MB left internally.

I decided to remove some installed apps, but that only gave another 5MB or so.

Then I used explorer and checked the program files directory and saw that the uninstalled apps still had directories in there with files in them.

I manually deleted those folders and was back to 50MB free internal memory.

strange.
[HD2 General] xaccers:
Treesize mobile is free from MS Marketplace and very useful for tracking down those large folders.

Thank you for that tip, and sorry for the late reply.

Treesize mobile helped a lot.

It was about 79MB of cab files, using internal storage memory, which I did not need and had no idea were there.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] OX.Desire:
Eric Schmidt: "Initially, Google felt that they needed to build a device to help Android along so they worked with HTC to create the Nexus One handset. Schmidt says: “The idea a year and a half ago was to do the Nexus One to try to move the phone platform hardware business forward. It clearly did. It was so successful, we didn't have to do a second one. We would view that as positive but people criticised us heavily for that. I called up the board and said: 'Ok, it worked. Congratulations - we're stopping'. We like that flexibility, we think that flexibility is characteristic of nimbleness at our scale."

Bollocks! I knew I should've waited!! I loved my Nexus One until it was stolen. I loved the fact that everything came there first, as far as updates etc. It was so obviously Google's own phone. I didn't like that I had to use Dialer-One and Launcher Pro though (not crazy about stock Android dialler).

I love my Galaxy S's hardware, but I'm not loving this RFS stuff. How can I recommend a phone to people if they're going to have to lagfix it.. How do I know some OTA update isn't going to break it a year down the line and then they all start phoning me ?!

A Galaxy-S Nexus would be cool I reckon ..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Inquitus:
A Galaxy S Nexus would be half decent for someone looking to buy a phone now, but also certainly not worth any Desire or Galaxy S owner spending their hard earned cash to get hold of, it is the Galaxy S pig with lipstick painted on at best.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Fr4gg0r:
If Gingerbread does not bring gpu acceleration with, it seems to be quite senseless. -.-

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sergioalvarezmac:
This is only a mock up, cause there is no real image available. Materials and final

shape could differ a little, but imagine something like the Galaxy S with stock Android

and probably, but not confirmed at all, 1.2Ghz processor.

The person who published the notice on gizmodo says that this phone is almost the

same aspect as the Galaxy S, glossy plastic, 4 inch screen, and so, and so... with

a front facing camera, witch is logical cause Gingerbread it's suposed to have video-chat

trough Gtalk.

We must wait only 2 weeks to discover if it's real or not. But IMO I think that this

news is quite credible.

Little to no wait for updates availability

No RFS / lag crap

My only issue is the "leaked" image could have been spoofed. I'm taking this with a grain of salt. Hell, I could spoof my HD2 to say version 3.0, but the baseband would give it away.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Logicalstep:
It's not a leaked image, Gizmondo don't make that clear under the image, but they do say in the article that it's their impression of the N2.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] LvDisturbed1:
I was talking about the image on the first post.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kanttii:
Yeah, it's easy for those who know how it's done. I don't, but I don't even see what's the point in it - other than spoofing purposes. If Gingerbread is to bring significant (?) updates and changes to the UI, why would Settings menu look the same? In my understanding it should bring more finished look to different parts of Android, not to keep old stripes etc.

I love my Magic & 2.2.1 but would also like to have a UI with same intuitive ''touch'' as Gallery3D.
