Thanks for sharing, but how do you apply these changes. Do I just install the apks with a file manager like astro or something else?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ranova:
you can adb push them, use root explorer to copy them to /system/app or from terminal do cp /sdcard/something.apk /system/app/something.apk

i used terminal
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] thatguy123:
Just to clarify, if I use terminal, I copy files to root of sd, go into terminal and type:

su

cp /sdcard/filename.apk /system/app/filename.apk

Press enter, and redo this for each file name and reboot? Thanks.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ranova:
yes, thats correct
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] yoe_cu:
Ok, I see that there are many problems, tomorrow I will start working to try to fix it. I've been trying to run the battery on circle mode but also get many problems. Thank you very much.

I tried few themes, and found most themes' screenshots look fantastic, but when come to real daily use, they don't really look comfortable.

iNexus is different than those themes, it looks beautiful even with all other apps' icons.

sorry for my poor English :)

Looks great but first thing I saw

Phone Slide Answer/Decline is seriously messed up

The drop down menu toggles aren't proper.

WiFi and Rotation work great but:

GPS icon disappears when inactive

Airplane Icon is always Bright White for both active/inactive

Torch Icon is always Bright white for both active/inactive

I also removed your drop down menu transparencies for the toggles, Carrier, and top "No Notifications" area. I have mine set to a dark grey and it looks very nice.

Settings>CyanogenMod Settings>User Interface>Status Bar

Uncheck Show Clock

Settings>CyanogenMod Settings>User Interface>Notifications Colors

Notifications Count Color: #ffffffff

No Notification title color: #ffffffff

Uncheck/Recheck: Custom Notification Bar

Bar Color: #ff000000

Uncheck/Recheck: Custom Pulldown bar

Pulldown bar color: #ff6f6f6f

Reset!

Is there a way to get rid of the swirly popup animations?

One of the best themes ever seen... thanks!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] thatguy123:
Love this theme. By far my favorite CM theme. Thanks for all your hard work.

I did have one small suggestion...On the notification pull down menu, is there a way to make that first grey area not transparent? This is where our carrier name is...I like the grey color, but don't like seeing text or graphics that are on the screen behind the pull down menu.

Also once I updated voice, voice search, and youtube I lost the icon changes. Is there a way to get those back?

And when you have an updated version of this to download, can we just flash it over the existing I-nexus theme, or do we have to wipe dalvik cache and cache before flashing? Thanks again.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] sl8125:
I don't know if you can change the color of the pull down area. I tried it keep changing the whole colors. I too like some suggestions.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] mercuryzzz:

[Desire Themes and Apps] alexrose1uk:
Hi guys,

Sorry if this seems like a silly question, but the mail app, camera apps, and customised explorer are the ONLY parts of the official Sense builds I'd actually miss.

The answer may be around somewhere, but I haven't seen it yet; is it possible to get these apps by themselves for use on a NON-SENSE ROM. So for example if I was to go to Oxygen, I'd get all the benefits of an AOSP ROM and the additional speed, but retain the customised camera, internet and mail app.

Honestly everything else I use can be downloaded from the market, its just these apps I miss when I move away from HTC/Leedroid, infact Im quite happy with Zeam as a launcher.
[Desire Themes and Apps] schiznik:
this has been asked and answered a million times already...

you cant run sense apps on an aosp rom - they require the sense framework to be running, which doesnt exist on a rom that doesnt include sense.

you can run a launcher such as zeam on a sense rom though, and the htc apps should work (dont think the widgets will)
[Wildfire General] Skellyyy:
Hi, Asorry got the dumb questions in advance). yeah well I'm new to the whole android os and I heard this is the website to be on for everything android related.

I'm just wondering,

how hard is it to hack my wildfire and what can I do with it once its hacked?

Also, my friend has a custom ROM called 'MIUI' or something along the lines of that... And I'm wondering, will I be able to get this ROM on my phone?

Last question - what are the downsides (if any) to hacking my phone? Thanks. :)
[myTouch 4G General] jjlean:
So here are a few cool apps I have found lately for root.

Adfree- disables all ads

Appbrain- not for root but recommends neat apps.

Elite bomb ultimate-text bomb app. With root can send tons at a time.

Music downloader pro-not for root. Just downloads music.

Shootme-for root. Takes screen shots.

Where's my droid- turns up phone volume and rings so you can find your lost phone.. Activated by keyword in a text from another device.

Cache mate-for root. Clears cache of most apps all at once.

If I find any other ones I'll let you bros know.
[myTouch 4G General] QUEDRO:
Where's my droid -wow cool! thx man, keep it comin'

Also

adbWireless - wifi ADB

Bump - exchange contacts/photos/apps with other phones (iphones, androids) no root

Dropbox - file hosting and sync-ing PC-Phone no root

PS: it needs to be posted in Themes and Apps though
[myTouch 4G General] Cheeze[iT]:
Where's my droid has to be the best thing in the world... only down side is if someone knows my catch phrase they can get you some stares in class =D

[myTouch 4G General] Mftek1:
Those are some good apps!

Sent from my HTC Glacier
[myTouch 4G General] aznpr1de808:
here are some of my suggestions:

metamorph - flashes themes like swype

vlingo - far better than genius button and the ui is flawless

apps2 sd - moves your apps from internal memory to your sd

boot animation changer - changes your boot screen on startup and its simple

barnacle wifi legacy - wifi tether your 4G network to any wifi enabled device

adb wireless - helpful when using adb push without having to use cables

setcpu - needed for adjusting overclock functions

poweramp - utilizes an EQ which makes the HTC speakers sound far better

quick boot - quickly boot into reboot, recovery or hboot with one click

titanium backup - if you flash roms often then you know what this is lol

these are just a few of mine ;)
[myTouch 4G General] jjlean:

[myTouch 4G General] beelbeel:
A lot of people mention root explorer as a great app. Is there a free alternative that can accomplish the same thing? I was interested in remapping my genius button using the tutorial found on these boards, but I don't really know if I want it badly enough to pay 4 bucks to do it and never use the app again.
[Defy General] Step666:
So I've had my Defy a week and I like it, more than I thought I would to be honest.

However, one thing that's bugging me is the battery life.

In their review, Engadget actually highlighted the battery life as one of the big plus-points of the Defy.

They state:

Now, I'm not using wi-fi calling but I don't think that should excuse or explain the fact that my phone barely lasts a day when at least one other handset has such significantly better battery life.

Anyway, I was just wondering how everyone else's Defys were performing.
[Defy General] disturkis4u:
Im coming from a vibrant and the battery on this is the best on android so far that i've ever used(g1, mytouch, mytouch 4, vibrant, etc.
[Defy General] Step666:
If you don't mind me asking though, how long do you go between charges?

As I said, I'm lucky if I make it much more than a day - certainly two days isn't possible.

But I'm not a particularly heavy user, a bit of internet and a few texts here and there but very little in the way of calls, so I kind of feel like I should be getting more out of the handset.

When I check the battery usage, it's quite often ~40% each for 'Mobile Standby' and 'Phone Idle'.

So the vast majority of the drain is just from the phone being on, not from anything I'm actively doing.
[Defy General] disturkis4u:
Is this your first smartphone? =)

I go a day and a half or so. I'm heavy on web use and playing 'slice it' all day.

for my usage, im THRILLED to have a phone that can still have 30-40% at the end of a long day.
[Defy General] shaftenberg:
Just try to reboot the phone after fully charged and detached from power. There is an issue with the "suspend" process in some cases (not only on Froyo 2.2) which disappears after rebooting. Mine lasts 2-3 days with average use.

The issue at Google (I am not allowed to post links as a new user :( )

code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=11126
[Defy General] mitsgsx:
I can use the web steady for 5 hours, this includes some streaming video, if I start at 100% its down to 10% by then. At work it lasts easily all day but it gets little web usage and maybe an hour of talking. I use battery booster and advanced task killer, my backlight is set at 70%.
[Defy General] nitewalkergr:
With moderate use (some calls, lots of texts, some web browsing) I get 2 days. It needs to be charged at the end of day 2, but I'm happy with it. I don't have any ot the social networking crap on so it's not constantly syncing. I think that may have something to do with it. I keep my backlight way down too.
[Defy General] xdaid:
Battery life? i got defy just a week ago and first impressions are good. You know, in the first days you make yuor phone working a lot, testing all the features, trying new apps from the market (so internet connection always on) , watching some movies, playing 3d games!

So a really heavy use, but power lasts at least 1,5 days. So i think using the phone moderately makes the battery life easily up to 3 days.

Try some task-killer app, and then test the power duration. Some softwares stay in background and keep draining power.
[Defy General] Step666:
No.

And I don't see what that's got to do with anything.

My battery life seems to be noticeably poorer than what the majority of people here are quoting.

If I were to use the web for 5 hours, there's no way I'd have anywhere near 30-40% of my battery left.

Having looked at your link, it sounds as though when that's happening, people can see the Suspend process listed in the break-down of what's using the battery.

I've never seen it listed, so I'm not sure that's the problem here.

I've got Spare Parts installed and it's set to 'aggressively' monitor and kill processes.

A friend recommended it over the likes of Advanced Task Killer because it's supposed to be better at differentiating between apps that are safe to kill and parts of the core software/system that could cause issues if closed.

I get what you're saying about using the phone more than normal because it's new but in the 8 days since I got it, I've spent 7 at work, so I haven't had that much scope to mess around with it.

I've switched the screen from automatic brightness control and I've disabled the background syncing for facebook, so hopefully that'll make a difference.

If not, since it's just over a week, I'm well inside the 28 days I can have it swapped for being faulty.
[Defy General] shorty66:
Quadrant: 1100 points, Linpack: 6,49 Mflops

Edit: ooops, should read the title more carefully next time.

My defy runs for about 40 hours on one battery charge.
[Defy General] shad0wboss:
i have to charge mine everyday at night after using it whole day, time to time. Not bad tbh.
[Defy General] disturkis4u:
A task killer is NOT necessary.

It seems like blur services are push rather than pull which uses much less battery (think blackberry). But im not 100%.

I've set up yahoo, corporate, facebook, and picasa just to test it out and it didn't make much difference in my battery life.

I consistently get a day and a half (unless i play games). Can push to 2 days if i put on airplane mode overnight.
[Defy General] nickownzya:
Found this on a german forum, as you can see, he was not in flight mode. I guess my desire's battery won't last that long. ;)
[Defy General] vermell:
I can go about one full day with moderate/somewhat heavy usage. Won't last 2 full days though.
[Defy General] Step666:
People keep saying that but I'm not convinced.

I mean, if I use my browser say and then finish using it and know I won't need it again for a while, why prevent me from actually closing/killing it?

It seems so ridiculously counter-intuitive.

Plus, if it's really not necessary, then why are so many of them being developed?

Even Samsung are producing task managers now for devices like the Galaxy Tab - if it really wasn't necessary, surely one of Google's top hardware partners would know that.
[Defy General] disturkis4u:
And samsung is so great at making stuff...? Touchwiz??

Also, samsung's task killer does not show inactive or background apps like most task killers do.

What is the harm in the browser being open? It uses no cpu+ this phone has more than enough ram that it doesn't need you to close apps to keep things running smoothly.

It also will not improve your battery if you arbitrarily close an app only to re-open it later and use more processes.

Just my 2 cents on this topic.
[Defy General] Step666:
Blur?

They're no Sense, either of them, that's for certain.
[Defy General] disturkis4u:
Yeah they're nowhere near being that bloated lol
[Defy General] MTDG:
Something i already posted in a german forum about my battery life:

2,5h gaming (Zenonia),

3h mobile internet (ICQ, Yahoo-mail, web, market)

2h of activated WLAN and deactivated sleep to copy stuff from pc to Defy

1,5h music (radio)

and 1h (and 6 minutes lol) of phone calls

After that day, i still had 30% of battery.

The maximum i reached were 75 hours including MY normal use with some mobile internet, some texting and 1 or 2 calls...maybe an hour of gaming at most.

I did not charge it first when i got it, because the battery was at 80% already/still and i wanted to play around.

Current running time: 26 hours...i activate plane-mode at night from now on. Low 70s now.

Everything at minimum display brightness (30%?)
[Defy General] xdaid:
In my opinion, a task killer is absolutely necessary.

All the apps launched keep consuming RAM even if they're not in use. I brought back 106 mb last time i performed a task killing! In most of the cases less ram means worst performances / more work for cpu.
[Defy General] xdaid:
@Step666

Are you using any LIVE wallpaper?

I tried one for a day, i had to charge at night. It looks like it drains a lot of power!

Now i'm back to a pict background, almost an entire day of normal use and power is 70%.
[Defy General] Step666:
Nope, no live wallpapers.

They strike me as fairly gimmicky.

The battery life has been better over the last day or two but I've noticed that seems to have coincided with T-Mobile's HSDPA signal disappearing at times (I guess weather-related).
[Defy General] Sorensiim:
Mine gets its fair workout throughout the day, texts, a few calls, constant Twitter and gmail through 3g, wifi at home and I usually have about 50-60% battery left at night when I plug it in. Buy the full version of system panel and you can set up logging of device usage, battery drain etc. I easily get twice the battery life that I got from the HTC Desire I had before.
[Defy General] etherea:
I've cut a bit my battery usage just turning on the Battery Saving; also installed the Task Manager that's killing unused apps to free memory avoiding battery drainage.

I can go for a whole day using it at its best with social network widgets always turned n and WhatsApp maximum usage =)
[Defy General] Caroliano:
Anyone with an very low usage of the phone? Like 3G/Wifi/GPS turned off 99% of the time, and about one hour of medium to light use everyday? Can I expect to last more than 6 days on one charge that way? Or at least more than 3 days?
[Defy General] milesg:
I'm sure you'll get 3 days+ with that kind of usage. I use mine a bit: WiFi and 3G on all the time (about a hour of browsing, a few calls, some GPS use, 30 mins of music, email and a couple of widgets syncing all the time) and I am getting about 2 and half days. I do switch the phone off from midnight till 7am.
[Defy General] trickyhenry:
I never signed into moto blur, I'm sure this is helping. I'm running launcher pro and a couple of widgets. I easy get a couple of days. Rock Solid! Best phone I have ever had.. and I've had them all (really).
[Defy General] scrannel:
Yeah, I agree with you; this is a weirdly great phone!
[Defy General] milesg:
Yeah, same here, skipped the motoBlur sign up, installed Launcher Pro immediately and don't use any of the Motorola social networking stuff.

It is a great phone and seeing the pretty unexciting specs on the Nexus S and the hugely expensive price (in the UK at least), I am so glad I got my Defy.

We just need a 2.2 custom ROM and we're home free.
[Defy General] stfnlg:
I'm very happy with my Defy, too. The battery performance is great. Yesterday i was "online" with 3g the whole day, including about 1 hour of music playback, 20 minutes of talking, about 1 hour surfing. There is still about 40 % remaining....

My first android which is working great, looking great. Ok, i'm not talking about the camera. But - finally Android.

anyone else here find this combination as awesome as i do? i mean, you get 2000 minutes of free calling over wifi/3g data with this. pretty damn good deal in my opinion. it allowed me to drop my plan from the simply everything to the 450min/everything data plan.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
I get unlimited minutes thanks to Google Voice and Sipgate One. I just use Fring for a SIP client instead, since it's a good deal more stable and clearer.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t3project:
it initiates a voice over IP call with either wifi or your phones data connection instead of using cellular minutes. just like if you have phone service through your isp.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t3project:
i use pbxes.org. i just configured fring with it and they sound about the same to be but sipdroid is a little spotty sometimes. we'll see. i tried sipgate one and couldnt get it to righ through to my phone or make outgoing calls. any suggestions?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guisar:
client discussion- sipdroid vs fring

I tried sipdroid and it's GV integration which works fine (when it works) but it's not reliable enough to use regularly. Specifically, much of the time on incoming calls it rings but when I answer there's no sound on either end so no go...

Fring and sipgate has proven more reliable. I forward my GV number to my sipgate number (voice mail turned off) and fring will ring. This allows all my incoming calls to go over data. The quality is not landline good but it's intelligible and in general better than sipdroid. Plus, so far I have had no audio issues with Fring. I'd prefer to use sipdroid but no go unless it's more reliable. If someone has figured out the audio issue please let us know. I don't think it's a codec problem or at least modifying them didn't have any effect on the reliability.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guisar:
reference below- just set up sipgate credentials in fring then have GV forward to your sipgate number. Just add it as a landline, etc as with any other line. You can test when GV calls the line to verify it. So fring in this configuration works reliably- much more reliably than sipdroid. The quality isn't perfect but it's "tin can" ok. My guess is Fring is using some very low bandwidth codec and the quality is a good as it's going to get over mobile data lines.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muppetman462:
I got this set up.....but I have the SIPgate/SIP Sorcery through pbxes.org going to SIPDroid. Yeah, it's a lot of stuff, but it works really, really well. I tried fring, and it would always drop out. Without the pbxes.org, the audio was not the best...
