Hi EFyodor,

just wanted to ask you directly: do you have any clou why updating to the "Desire HD custom toolbar with percent battery" doesnt work? (at least for some users)

this icon was the reason i installed this rom. (i dont regret it, because its the best i ever used :) )

another thing: what setcpu-settings do you recommend?

and another thing: i really like that you include clockwork, instructions and stuff into your download...keep that up!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EFyodor:
You should do this from the directory which contains 6 ereader files:

D:\ereader> adb push EReaderLibrary.apk /system/app

D:\ereader> adb push EReaderLibrary.odex /system/app

D:\ereader> adb push EReaderViewer.apk /system/app

D:\ereader> adb push EReaderViewer.odex /system/app

D:\ereader> adb push EReaderWidget.apk /system/app

D:\ereader> adb push EReaderWidget.odex /system/app

Next reboot your phone.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EFyodor:
This ROM mounts the second partition of sdcard to /data. If you mount this partition in yor PC, you will see a lot of dirictories on this partition. Android uses the /data/app directory to store user apps. If MDJ's ROM, which you are using, stores user apps in the app direcory and this directory phisicaly placed in root of the second partition you will have all your applications in this ROM already. But I recommend you to save apk files from /data/app directory, delete all directories and files on the second partition instead of the lost+found directory, and delete the .android_secure directory from the first partition of sdcard before you will install other ROM. Next you can install all applications which you saved from /data/app. You can do it by adb or directly in your phone in any file manager.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jigners:
my device already has raiderx ClockworkMod 1.2 and the sd card partitioned using

CWM partitioning feature,

Partition layout is 400mb

Sd card partitioned to 1GB

at present i am using MarkinuX HD Extra Clean V1.2 [app2sd+, fast, small, DesireHD-WO Sense

my apps and apks are all stored in the sdcard partition.

i am interested to test your build, but my only question is, will the apps and apks

i have in my current setup be left intact, save me from installing them all over again:(:p
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EFyodor:
Yes I know the reason of the toolbar update issue. I created this update for ROMs which store framework in NAND. Therefore you can install it to any Desire HD based ROMs which store framework in NAND. My ROM stores framework in the second partition of sdcard, therefore it is necessary to change the installation script of these two updates. The script must mounts the second partition before copy a new framework file. I will attach fixed update later...

You can install it without update. Extract the framework-res.apk from needed update.zip file and run comman:

adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/

Next reboot your phone.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EFyodor:
I never installed MarkinuX's ROM, therefore I do not know how it store user apps, I do now know when and where it mounts the second partition. If you know answers on these questions tell me and I will answer on your question.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Nimroth:
Sorry to bother you but i never worked with adb before. Can i insted just overwrite it with a root explorer?

thx for your help
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EFyodor:
Please, look at this post
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EFyodor:
It is very simple. Start root explorer and copy framework-res.apk file to /system/framework/ directory.

P.S. I recommend you to instal Android SDK. This toolkit is very helpful.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EFyodor:
I can not agree with you. I do not have any performance issues after ROM finished all configurations.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EFyodor:
Use the libhardware_legacy.so library from this ROM.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Nimroth:
well...using root explorer was not a good idea...imediatly after replacing it phone crashed and now its stuck in a boot-loop.

will try to fix it using adb...if that doesnt work ill reinstall the rom.

besides that i can second that this rom is running very fast!
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EFyodor:
I do not have this problem. I use WiFi every time.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EFyodor:
Yes use adb. Push stock framework-res.apk, reboot, and push custom framework-res.apk again. I had bootloop too after using root explorer.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] gigaboss:
Ok I'm having a little problem here...

After flashing and everything, I start the ROM, it says HEC, quietly brilliant, after a little while it boots, I get the lockscreen and the PIN code screen, but when I unlock the phone, nothing happens, only get the white screen with the HTC logo on it... nothing is launching...
[HD2 Android NAND Development] jigners:
like many Desire HD build, its just too much for our ageing HD2.

Ive tried many HD build since they first came out from SDcards

but many people prefer to stick with Desire HD builds and look

for optimizations to make things a little bit faster. If you are one of them

i recommend to start on this build.:)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EFyodor:
Toolbar updates are fixed now

I have attached the fixed version of tollbar updates. Please, try it who need percent battery.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EFyodor:
You should wait a some time. I waited about 6 minutes. It is only for first boot.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Nimroth:
Works!

directly after flashin the system.zip i also flashed update.zip for the %.

btw: i just reinstalled the rom because i couldnt figure out how to use adb correctly :)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] SsZzliMm:
Hmm ... Maybe my SD card speed is the problem ? What do you think ? Which class of SD card is the minimum recommended ?

Thanks !
[HD2 Android NAND Development] SsZzliMm:
I disagree. The hardware difference between the HD2 and the Desire HD is small.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EFyodor:
I use Transcend 6 class 8Gb.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] EFyodor:
Small? What does it mean? :) I tell again, I do not have performance issues.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] SsZzliMm:
I have 16GB Nokia Class 2.
[Android Themes] Boonja:
Android Agenda Widget is good for this. The look is very customisable, has a transparency option, and you can also have gtasks showing on the same scrollable widget. Very nice, and free.
[Android Themes] PalaNIN:
I suggest using Quickdesk as an alternative to having folders or anything like that. Essentially, double tapping the home button brings up an extra homescreen (can be from inside an app, too) so you can quickly get to a range of apps and widgets.

I have two homescreens - one for clock/weather/calendar/controls and one for my generic tools (Tweetdeck, Market, Maps, etc). Quickdesk gets me to a bunch of specialist applications, and the app drawer gets me to the rest.
[Android Themes] raven369:
Updated my setup. Now I'm using Go Launcher Ex instead of Launcher Pro. To keep things even more minimalist, I have a single dock icon which takes me to Quick Desk when tapped. I set my home button to Quick Desk as well, so I can easily switch between my apps when I'm not on my home screen. Quick Desk is an amazing multitasking app which basically gives you an extra home screen, where you can add apps and even widgets for easy access. The best thing about it is that, as I mentioned before, you can set this app as your default home button.

This is my setup. I don't know if it will be of any use for you since everyone has their own personal preferences and needs. Maybe mines will give you a different perspective or spark some new ideas (or maybe not).

I only use 1 home screen with Go Launcher Ex and with my status bar hidden. I have never seen the need to have multiple home screens. I tried to keep everything as efficient and minimal as possible while still maintaining some degree of aesthetics. Whenever I'm bored with my wallpaper, I could always swap the painting with another in Photoshop to give it a new look. :D Due to this, I don't need to change the layout of my home screen, move widgets around, or switch icons because the layout of my wallpaper is consistent. I like it this way. The rest of my widget and dock details are down below.

Home Screen

- swiping up on my home screen opens the app drawer

- swiping down on my home screen launches Quick Settings

Widgets

Android Agenda Widget

- tapping on individual calendar events opens its events details

- tapping on the bottom right corner of the widget opens its "uber" menu where you can add events, change settings, or view your whole calendar

This is a great widget in my opinion. It can sync to a lot of third party calendar and task apps such as Astrid. It has a lot of customization options as well. It's scrollable too if it's a feature that you need in a calendar widget.

Simi Clock

- tapping on the left side of the widget launches Clock

- tapping on the middle of the widget opens its quick 5 app menu

- tapping on the right side of the widget launches Genie/News and Weather

Simi Clock has all the daily info that I need in one small package including time, date, weather, battery, and it can launch apps.

Dock icons

Apps

- tapping launches Quick Desk containing my most used apps and widgets

- while in Quick Desk, tapping on the "Multimedia" icon in the top right opens Apps Organizer shortcut that contains a folder of my 20 most used multimedia apps (music, video, photo, games)

- while in Quick Desk, tapping on the "Misc" icon in the top right opens Apps Organizer shortcut that contains a folder of 20 utility apps that I occasionally use

- swiping up on apps dock icon opens notifications (in Launcher Pro and Go Launcher Ex you can assign dual functions to your dock icons for tapping and swiping)

I didn't want any scrolling to make things more efficient. That's why I only kept it down to 20 apps in a folder, which is the most you can fit on the screen at one time, or at least on my Captivate for that matter.
[Android Themes] Tsjoklat:
@raven369 you place the picture in the frame on the wallpaper? Or do you use a picture frame widget? Like your layout :)
[Android Themes] raven369:
Thanks. :) It's actually a part of the wallpaper that I put together and not a picture frame widget. I couldn't find any widgets with any good looking frames so I just Photoshopped it into my wallpaper.
[Android Themes] ipottinger:
Thanks Boonja for the suggestion.

I did find Pure Calendar widget but have noticed a few rendering glitches with it. Sometimes the agenda items don't appear at all. I'll give Android Agenda Widget a try.
[Android Themes] ipottinger:
That looks very interesting. My concern though is that according to it description it might not work with LauncherPro. I'll give it a try and see if it works and how it feels. Thanks for the suggestion.
[Android Themes] roy g. biv:
@raven369 I love your icons. I think they're perfect for me. Care to share them? :D
[Android Themes] ipottinger:
Wow, nice and clean. And just one screen too. You've set the bar quite high.

This looks very promising. I'll definitely try this. Thanks for point it out!

I should try and take move advantage of Simi Clock app launching ability. I don't know why I've ignore it till now.

This sounds complicated. The description mentions labels which I've not heard of before. I'm fairly new to all this. I got my Samsung Vibrant just a couple of months ago and only worked up the nerve to start mod'ing it a few weeks ago. I think this app will take some thought before I could effectively utilize it.

You certainly have given me quite a bit to think about. I can see now that there is still plenty of room even on a single screen to have all the info and functionality I want. It might take me awhile to get there but at least now I now how far I could possible go. Thanks!
[Android Themes] raven369:
Apps Organizer is actually a very easy app to use. It can be downloaded in the market plus it's free. I can teach you how to use it.

Once you open the app you have 2 categories: Apps and Labels. The Apps category pretty much just lists all of your apps. If you go to the Labels category you can create labels which are essentially folders. Just use the menu key on your phone to create a "New Label." Once you've created your new label hold/long press it and click on "Select Apps." From there just check off all the apps you want in the label. You can also rename your label the same way by long pressing it and clicking on "Rename."

Now if you go back to your dock on your home screen you can create an Apps Organizer shortcut. Just long press on your dock, select "Change Shortcut," select Apps Organizer, and then choose the label you want as the shortcut. If you don't like the icon just long press it on your dock and select "Change Icon." I'm sure you know how to put shortcuts on your dock already so this paragraph may be redundant information to you.
[Android Themes] Fidyyuan:
Can you save and upload your settings for Android Agenda Widget. I just can't get it to look like yours no matter what I do :/
[Android Themes] |flyte|:
So glad I stumbled on this thread - the design goals in the OP is exactly what I am going for, and I was tired of going thru tons and tons of pages in the various "Post your homescreens" threads here on XDA and AndroidForums to gain inspiration. Now hopefully I can just come here instead!

Is it any different than FolderOrganizer? I use this and i think it is excellent.

Also, I find that the minimalistic text widget to be awesome. It is super customizable and has tasker integration, which is way cool.
[Android Themes] raven369:
Apps Organizer is actually made by the same developer as Folder Organizer. Folder Organizer is more feature heavy. Apps Organizer can only organize apps while Folder Organizer can organize apps, bookmarks, contacts and also place apps in your notification bar as well. However, Folder Organizer isn't free and the lite version disables the majority of the features.

What phone do you own? I'm reluctant to upload my settings file because I don't know if mine will be compatible with yours if we use different phones and calendars. i just don't want to end up mucking your phone.

Have you tried these settings?

Appearance -> Themes -> "Minimalist" or "Minimal with date" (Sorry, I don't remember which theme I exactly used but I'm sure it was one of these)
Row Style -> inline
Row Settings -> Row Background -> off
Date Row Settings -> Day Row Background -> solid no pad
Date Row Color AND Date Row Transparency -> set everything to transparent
Text & Font Settings -> Text Highlights -> everything off
Bold the Date -> on
Advanced -> leave everything off for simple and more complicated settings
Toggle Skin Elements -> on
Use Frankenstein -> off
Customize Skin Colors -> Skin Color Customization -> on
Widget Color -> set Background Tint to black while everything else to transparent
Buttons & Toolbars -> I had toolbars turned off. I had right button #2 turned on with uber button action and its style all transparent.

This should give you a layout similar to mine. If you have any other questions don't hesitate to ask.
[Android Themes] irish22022:
I use calendr for my calendar widget. It only shows one event at a time. Also, I use a lot of minimalistic text widget.

A knew one just dropped a few days ago, good for organizing apps on your homescreen: circlelauncher

pretty sharp looking too, you'll need your own icon though.
[Android Themes] |flyte|:
To me, any minimal calendar widget that doesn't display the location of the upcoming event is flawed. I also use Calendr, but I can't stand that I have to click on it to see the location of my next meeting.
[Android Themes] svennn:
This calendar widget and setting is exactly what I have been looking for. Thanks.

It even has tasks that sync to google incorporated into the theme. Perfect and minimal.

One thing, what setting kills the color of the calendar as a bullet? I want the totally clear look, no color.
[Android Themes] holgalee:
Thanks for sharing the icons. Are there more? :p I'll like to see web and profile/contacts if possible.
[Android Themes] kev0153:
sorry a question. Where did you get the text icons for the SiMi folder widget (reference, social, games). I like your layout very much.

____

Edit - figure it out thanks

Thanks
[Android Themes] Tsjoklat:
I have almost the same setup, but I use SiMi folder instead of Folder Organizer and I use Phantom Music Control for the music widget in QD. @raven369 why did you go with Go Launcher?
[Android Themes] raven369:
Go Launcher Ex combines the best of both Launcher Pro and ADW. You can assign dual functions to your dock icons and swipe functions on your home screen, you can theme it, resize widgets, add iPhone-like folders to your homescreen and inside your app drawer. It even has dock notification support for Go SMS, Handcent, and chompSMS. With more bug fixes and updates, I think this will soon become the best launcher for Android. Unfortunately, I don't think Quick Desk supports any of Go Launcher Ex's dock notifications. Quick Desk didn't even recognize the standard sms app. I hope that Quick Desk will eventually integrate unread counts from Go Launcher EX.

By the way Tsjoklat, does Quick Desk launch smoothly on your phone? I'm asking this because I do see a lag when I have widgets on my Quick Desk and I only have my Winamp widget on there. You seem to be using more widgets on Quick Desk than I am with not only Phantom Music Control but multiple Simi Folders as well?
[Android Themes] Tsjoklat:
That's why I am kind of stuck right now on ADW, because of the notification support which does show up in QD. I am not really thrilled about it to tell you the truth (ADW that is), and the only thing I really like about it is the ability of having a full screen without the dock at all.

I have the PMC widget and three SiMi folders in my QD and I can't say that I am having a lot of lag. I will watch it more closely to see if it actually does and I was just not paying attention lol.

After your summation I think I am going to give GL a twirl, being able to put folders inside the drawer is something that I could use.
[Droid Incredible General] JWorth:
My phone slipped out of my car when parked today and the screen cracked. I had the Verizon hard rubber case on it but I think it was just too cold for the screen against the street.

What can I do? I have insurance with vzw, but will I have to pay the $50 for get it replaced? If i do do that, will they end up giving me an LCD screen instead of AMOLED?

or would I just be better of buying a glass screen replacement and replacing it myself? This would probably void by warranty and should be a last option, but still an option.

Thanks ahead of time.
[Droid Incredible General] tcberg2010:
I've broken my screen a few times. It's not covered under warranty and the insurance claim is $80(at least for me it was) I received an S-LCD on my most recent replacement and to be honest it's not nearly as big of a deal to me as it was at the time.

From the looks of it here you might be better off paying the $80 for an insurance replacement.
[Droid Incredible General] JWorth:
$80?! dam.. it used to be $50 :/

i was hoping the replacement would just be the glass covering but i guess that's not the case.

Well this sucks... thanks for the advice tho
[Droid Incredible General] g00s3y:
i actually just recently cracked mine also. I bought the bezel from www.repairsuniverse.com and got the glass digitizer and a tool kit from amazon. Spent about $85 in total.
[HTC Aria General] glamx:
I bought an HTC Aria from Ebay and it came with this Cyanogenmod that I really dislike, I would like the original and default Droid interface. I've been reading around and it seems that I would need some sort of CD that came with the phone to unroot it but I bought the phone without the CD it was sold as "Phone Only" Though I do have the USB connector.

I would appreciate it if anyone at all could help me with this matter. Thank You.

I have the slyvania 7" android 2.1 tablet..........Ok i see universal androot has worked on this device. Where is a link or instructions please. Second question if i root is that like unlocking a windows mobile device. And if so can you use a rom update utility to flash a new os say like cyanogen running android 2.2 with flash is this possible. I have unlocked and flashed phones before windows mobile i would think the same principals would apply here since its a similar device can any one help me? I know that on the htc touch pros you can download haret for android 2.2 and use gen y dual boot loader. Cant something like that also be placed on this there has to be a way even if you root and someone has the galaxy tab image that could be flashed on so full 2.2 and flash 10.1 and official android market. And those haret files have a working google market..
