agreed i have both but i eventually switch to the other in between flashing roms right now i have launcher pro and when mikey new rom comes out and i flash it, ill switch to adw ex

Edit: or not, might play around with TW4 for a bit
[Captivate Android Development] s1l3nt:
it does not have it coming with the rom but you can get it from the add on kitchen on the website theres a few to choose from
[Captivate Android Development] halfsoul:
You must be talking about ADW EX which I never had. And yes, you can hide the dock bar with Go.

For the recent apps, I use the home long-press first which shows the most recent 6 apps (which you are referring to and is not part of ADW). If the app I'm looking for isn't there then I go to the recent apps in Go Launcher which shows a longer list (which ADW does not have).

You don't have to try Go if you don't want to, I can see you're quite attached to ADW. But please let's stop talking about it. It's off-topic.
[Captivate Android Development] Demonic240:
I've been using Go Launcher for a couple of weeks now. So far I like it far more than LauncherPro.
[Captivate Android Development] rvt1000:
Mikey....we're all dying waiting for your masterpiece....we've gone from talking about motorcycles, to cars, now over to launchers.

[Captivate Android Development] H3llstorm:
Just downloaded Go Launcher EX. I see where you can have a transparent dock bar, but not where you can remove the dock bar.

I rarely use the recent apps list. I usually just swipe up for the app drawer.

I've tried Go Launcher EX in the past and returned to ADW - just like I am now - and I'm more than happy to stop talking about it too.

Unless there are some major bug fixes, the only thing I see in 2.3.4 is the video crap for gmail that we cant use anyway due to no front facing camera.

OH! Final!!! :(

I have to say Mikey, tonight I am coming back, well, I am crawling back to Serendipity, because absolutely no other ROM that can compare to it!!

Also, extremely excited about the GB ROM!!!

I refused to flash any other GB ROM until you released yours. i know if I want a well made, stable ROM, only Mikey can deliver it!!!

I'm not too development proficient, so i'm gonna wait until i have all the instructions down pretty well before flashing, but meanwhile, I am gonna stick to the amazing Serendipity!!!

Thanks for all your hard work!!! (even through your surgery :( )
[Captivate Android Development] rrieter:
Up because my 11 year old daughter HAS to see the wedding. If I don't get father of the year for this...

I, too, refuse to flash any rom but Mikey's. Just saw the "final"designation. Amazing how attached we get. I think the community is a big part of that feeling. Learned so much here. Everyone is helpful and no question goes unanswered. Speaking of which, Albert Hammond sang "It Never Rains in Southern California". You're welcome.

Let's just say I've been a fan of designgears' ROMs for a while but when I tried Serendipity I was blown away at how fast and smoothly everything worked. I knew my Captivate was a fast machine but your ROM reset the bar. Recently though, with all the talk of Gingerbread, I got the bug to flash again and went with the Perception beta. Because of the bootloader issue, I won't be going back to a Froyo ROM. Mikey, I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do with GB.

Thanks!

Ya, right here.
[Captivate Android Development] Oxicottin:
MikeyMike, I was wondering if it was possible to change the default browser that's in the desktop tray? I know I can add a browser but I only use one browser and didn't want icons all over the place so I figured I could just replace the default one with the one I use. Can I do this and if so how. Thanks! I try other ROMs but keep coming back to this one for the smoothness and no errors! Well built ROM MikeyMike!

Hey will the gt 19000 serendipity work on my gf's tmous samsung vibrant????

Sorry if it is a dumb question
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Good point, however ADW launcher was and is free the EX version is the pay version. The standard version is definatly comparable w/ go laun. Within severl months go laun, will have a pay version as well (if it lasts);)
[Captivate Android Development] reinbeau:
The desktop tray - do you mean the dock? Are you using a launcher that allows you to reassign icons to programs? If you are, like LauncherPro or ADW, (I'm not sure of the procedure for ADW, this works in LauncherPro) Long Press on the icon and select Change Shortcut. Then select the new browser you're interested in using from the ensuing list.
[Captivate Android Development] H3llstorm:
On ADW EX, you long press to remove an icon from the dock, and then drag whatever icon you want in it's place.

I set ADW to "no dock" and just use icons. I don't need the same dock on every screen.

With that, there are plenty of launchers to choose from - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12207960&postcount=10275 :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] Oxicottin:
Yes I do you mean to dock and I'm not using a ADW or any other launcher besides the stock launcher. Can I just name my browser the same and substitute the system/app/ browser.apk with the browser i want to use?
[Captivate Android Development] reinbeau:
Well, yea, I guess you could go through all that (someone with more experience will have to confirm that), or you could use a launcher - which has much more functionality than the stock launcher. Try LauncherPro, you might like it.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Just out of curiosity, how many have switched over to GR-9/10?

I can't do it yet. I love the way serendipity looks. The matching Icons (Wifi, Cell Signal, Battery) the smaller Icons on the pull down menu (Without text). The no clock feature. The menu pop ups. The transparent notification bar.

I just can't do it. At least not until a kitchen comes out. But I understand it's still new and a work in progress. Keep it up though I'll be over soon. :)
[Captivate Android Development] iRide113:
Maybe a stupid question... but since it says final in the title, does that mean 6.4 Serendipity is the last? If so what is after?

Also the website seems to be down? ):
[Captivate Android Development] JayFReaZy:
I believe 6.4 is the last version of Serednipity that will be released. Check out his new Gingerbread Rom thread ( GR-10 ).
[Captivate Android Development] iRide113:
Do you think he will have a website up soon? Like he did with Serendipity?
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Idk the site is down right now. Which means he took it down for good or he's editing it for the new ROM.

I just really really hope he keeps the Serendipity stuff on there and just add his new ROM to it. Serendipity is still a current ROM, even though the firmware is behind.
[Captivate Android Development] iRide113:
I agree completely... And I know once I saw the website was down I thought he was updating it (with the new ROM hopefully).

Serendipity was just straight out... well amazing. So hopefully GR-10 will be even better! :D

I wouldn't say that... ;)

Oh god... now I have to choose between Serendipity and GR-10... how cruel is life?! :rolleyes:

Are you updating your website for Serendipity or are you adding GR-10 to it? I am so anxious!
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Mikey what does it mean?? fml :confused:

Wait are you making two versions of the same gingerbread ROM. GR-10 (SGS II Themed) and "UNKNOWN" (Serendipity Theme Gingerbread)! I read another post that said you have 8 different builds on your HDD. Please tell me it's true.
[Captivate Android Development] Oxicottin:
Im not moving to 2.3.3 until its perfected like the 2.1 and 2.2 ROMs. The 2.3 is still new and im sure there are all kinds of bugs and issues. This ROM is stable and runs great so im staying here for awhile....
[Captivate Android Development] ATT Intruder:
On the stock launcher...

Go into applications, manage applications, all. Find your browser and clear defaults. The next time you press out it will ask you which browser your want to open eng do your want to make it the default.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
Or do you?

[Captivate Android Development] edtonn:
Wha...?! Would be sweet to have Serendipity-themed 2.3...
[Captivate Android Development] rrieter:
I moved to GR-9 and it is VERY stable. To think it's going to get so much better is unbelievable. Gallery is really fast, my gps works better. There really isn't "all kinds of bugs and issues". I was going to wait, too. Serendipity is an amazing rom. Can't go wrong either way.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Really, the only "bugs and issues" are ascetic issues, which can be cured by themeing. As for the rom itself, its perfectly stable. I have to use my phone all day long on an everyday basis, so I cant be on a rom that is buggy or not stable... and Ive been on Mikey's GR rom for a few days now.

Still though, Serendipity 6.4 was freaking awesome.
[Captivate Android Development] ajh5408:
In the spirit of fairness, there are still a few things fundamentally broken in the GR build, but it's amazingly stable and feature-rich for such a new ROM. My hats off to Mikey for the excellent work he's doing... More power to ya if you plan to keep Serendipity going in spirit or otherwise!
[Captivate Android Development] ChikiBujia:
OOOHHH!!!!! Mikey, you tease!!!

I keep going back and forth with my decision to flash GR-10!!!

I was about to do it when I read your post!! Now I'm gonna wait to see what you're cooking!!!! :D

Coming home

I read a post here a while back and can't find it now to quote the author but to sum up what was posted the guy was apologizing for leaving serendipity for another rom. He went on to say how he intended for it to be a quick venture and to come right back which he apparently did. I just found my self in the same situation and felt like I was sneeking out for a while to see the city after dark. I won't speak of the things I saw but I will say this.. I am coming home tonight. now that I have seen the other side and know for myself that it is not greener I can appreciate to fullest what serendipity has done for me.i guess my story is exactly the same unknown author I mentioned above except he said that he ' pushed down, down, down(etc) to the option 'yes/this can't be undone'. I plan on pushing 'up, up, up ' because it will save some clicks and time and get me back home that much faster.

Thank you serendipity for opening my eyes and accepting me back after doubting you.

P.s. Why doesn't the xda app find this serendipity thread when I search for it? Lots of other rom threads but not this one. All I typed in the search box was 'serendipity'. You'd think that'd be all it takes..
[Captivate Android Development] Oxicottin:
Im not saying im leaving Serendipity..... why would anyone do that it the best ROM out there! What im saying is im waiting for the 2.3 version to be perfected. I want to convert but im sure there will be so many more changes.... awsome ROM MikeyMike hope you continue serendipity!
[Captivate Android Development] nawlage:
Lame as it may sound I went searching for another rom that had more theming available. Ill just have to learn to morph I guess cuz it turns out that the themes aren't worth the headaches. I loved redrom, I just would have liked it to have more elements like the extended power menu and notif bar and settings.
[Captivate Android Development] Rodman101:
On my lockscreen it says sun may. And the 01 is cut off under the may just a slight detail I just noticed.

I'm feeling serendipitous...
[Captivate Android Development] rrieter:
One reason to wait-updates wipe data. You have to reinstall all your apps. I'm on GR 9 and staying unless it's a major update. Pretty sure no wipe updates are just around the corner.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
@Oxicottin If I flash the honeycomb lock screen in your sig do I lose my Bluedipity Theme. I'm on Serendipity 6.4 w/Bluedipity. Also, I have the Transparent Status Bar.
[Captivate Android Development] bryman27:
You will lose some of the Bluedipity theme, but things like the Dialer, Calculator, and Calendar will still be blue. Things like signal bars and checkboxes will be green.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Thanks. Thats what I thought.
[Captivate Android Development] Oxicottin:
Look at the files it only replaces a hand full and the ones they replace dont have anything to do with anything other than that lock screen. I would have to disagree with Joe, I think it wont change any of your theming except it would make it a Honeycomb clock on that screen and the look of the circles. I would try it....
[Captivate Android Development] LlamaLord:

[Captivate Android Development] me_is_rushin:
Does anyone know if it is possible to output to tv with serendipity? I bought a 3.5mm to RCA cable today and so far have had no luck getting it to work. I searched, but couldn't find any answers.

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] :
Audio, yes. I have a 3.5 to RCA cable that connects my phone to my surround sound and it works just fine.

Video, no. You cant push video out of the 3.5mm output.
[Captivate Android Development] H3llstorm:
What are the Settings > Display > TV out settings for?
[Captivate Android Development] :
Video out of the micro usb port via special cable.
[Captivate Android Development] me_is_rushin:
I'm in the US so I used NTSC and even tried PAL just for the heck of it, but same result. Just random grey lines.

Are you sure? I know there is a USB to HDMI cable, but I am just trying to achieve SD picture.
[Captivate Android Development] :
I should be more clear... US variants of the Samsung Galaxy S feature video-out only via wireless DLNA technology. Im not sure if its a hardware or a software limitation, but the European Galaxy S can do video out of 3.5mm. I know that it takes a separate wire within the jack that will be used for the video signal, but Im not sure if that was put in the US phones or not since they went with wireless DLNA for video. I have not seen/hear of anyone doing video out of the 3.5 output though.
[Captivate Android Development] H3llstorm:
Not this cable?

[Captivate Android Development] cashrox:
I used to do video out with serendipity via 3.5mm jack haven't used this rom in a while though.
[Captivate Android Development] cashrox:
And a GR-11 themed like Serendipity would be incredible :)
[Captivate Android Development] Nuskul:
Try using the red or white cable from phone to the yellow on tv, the colors are different
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Just One More Update

So I know Serendipity is old news. But its still a great ROM. And many are still using it. But..would it be possible to have one more update.

With:

*50% time w/o signal script fix (I have an app that does it but any app I can get rid of is great. plus it runs on start up.)

*Increase the WiFi Scan time (For a little better battery life.)

Please just one more update. Or if someone can tell me how to do it myself.

But lets be honest Serendipity 6.5 has a nice ring to it. It's a good point to stop.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
TV Out

To who ever asked about TV out. I tried it and looks awesome. Can't believe I didn't know about it. I use a Composite (Yellow, Red, White) to 3.5mm jack. Turned TV Out on and NTSC. It was crystal clear and sounded great.
[Captivate Android Development] gcamp0730:
Yes, you can. You just have to swap the yellow and white ends. So white from phone goes to video input on tv and yellow from phone goes to white on tv.

Edit: This is with a cable that came with my camcorder; not anything special as far as I know...
[Captivate Android Development] me_is_rushin:
Glad it's working for you.

Saw others saying that, tried it, but no luck. I think I may just have an incompatible cable or something.

Thanks for all the helpful advice guys.
[Captivate Android Development] gluvox:
Hi, uh,

I've been running 6.4 for a while now with no problems. Lately the market is crashing my phone. When it starts to update an app, the Serendipity logo pops up and the phone (sort-of) reboots. ('Sort of' meaning there's no ATT or Galaxy screens; it just goes to Serendipity. Then my wifi doesn't work and I can't update any apps.)

This started occurring when I put an aftermarket battery (laza) on the phone, although it occurs with the original battery.

sooo, should I just upgrade to GR-11?
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
If one planned on stopping.
[Captivate Android Development] ChikiBujia:
Mikey!!!!

I feel like a lost dog just running around trying to find a home (in this case, gingerbread :p)

I'm waiting to flash your first official GR ROM (just trying to avoid the wipe all updates. Yes, sorry, i'm kinda lazy :o ) but now, I'm gonna have to wait to see what you do with Serendipity!!!!

So, I know I should never ask this, but just give me a ball park estimate, how much longer will I be waiting? :p

Your faithful fan,

ChikiBujia :D
[Captivate Android Development] ChanceM:
GR is just starting to take shape. Been helping Mikey with a few things.

as far as function it works fine we just need to add in some creature comforts.

[Captivate Android Development] ChikiBujia:
I've only read good things about it!! I can't wait to see what you guys do with an official ROM version!!!

To be honest, I'm thinking about flashing it, and just restoring with TiBu with every update :D

Will you be working on a theme for it? Maybe, and hey it's just an idea here for you to sleep on it :p, but maybe, you could create a purple or pink theme??!!!! :D
[Captivate Android Development] reinbeau:
Or you could just reflash Serendipity from scratch. If you really want to go to GR, go ahead, but it's not finished - Serendipity is just about perfect, why not just fix that installation?
