For those who are unfamiliar with Heimdall, heimdall is similar Odin pretty much will accomplish the same function. But, there are a mac version and a Linux version.

Also, it may help some of you who have had issues with Odin not working for you. This is a good alternative.

I still prefer Odin, (probably cause what i started with) but It is worthwhile to have in your folder of tools

Here is the link

http://www.glassechidna.com.au/products/heimdall/

To all, the Heimdall site is a bit confusing, There is no need to login in order to download, there are several 1.1.1 links on the Heimdall product page/website, you will have to look around a bit.

Here is a fix for some who have compatibility issues on mac, it is a boot loader and can be found here for those who need :

For those who have front-end crash issues or alike here is a fix script link for that as well:

[Vibrant General] cjggilbert:
Thanks, have also only used odin, like you probably because it's where I'm comfortable, but I'm going to give this a try.
[Vibrant General] Bl4ckpheniX:
Thank you for the heads up, I will try this later today.
[Vibrant General] dasunsrule32:
This version had been out for months. ;)
[Vibrant General] bert269:
Yeah it is funny.......

On the bullet to the right is mentioned 1.1.1 is available. Clicking on it says that "unless you have a Galaxy tab there is now need to update"

But nowhere is there a link to 1.1.1, only to 1.1.0 ???????

Weird!

EDIT:

Login to the website, then you can download 1.1.1
[Vibrant General] Bl4ckpheniX:
Installed it but failed to open. Anyone have issues running this on snow leopard?
[Vibrant General] EvilAldo:
Yeah its not working on snow leopard for me either.
[Vibrant General] Benjamin Dobell:
Sorry guys I still haven't had the time to properly fix it up. However there is a work-around here.

There is no need to login in order to download, there are several 1.1.1 links on the Heimdall product page. You must have skipped to the bottom of the page and been looking in the "Old Releases" section. Admittedly it's not particularly well set out.
[Vibrant General] EvilAldo:
Thanks, I'll give it a try, if not I'll just wait for 1.1.2. I have odin on my wife's laptop, but it would be nice to be able to do all my flashing from my iMac.
[Vibrant General] oka1:
To all I have updated the op and it now provides some additional clarity to help those who may need the additional fixes/patches
[Vibrant General] blahbommer:
Anyone have this working in Ubuntu. I installed both the package and the user interface. but can't find them.

Sorry... Please Close Thread..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Persianity:
I first move the inputmethod.apk from /data/apps to /system/apps (rename it to make sure it has no -1 or -2), reboot my phone, then apply the update through metamorph, click apply, then reboot my phone again. After the phone loads up and I go to Language & Settings, Swype doesn't exist, but it's still installed on my phone. Any ideas? I'm completely lost. :(
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSilverStig:
You have to have swype on the phone in the first place. What release of myns are you running because swype only comes with rls 5. If you are running anything before that it wont work because that it just to put a theme on your already existing swype. It doesnt add swype, it just changes how it looks. (which is quite nice might I add)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Persianity:
i am running myn's new release of rls5. before i tried metamorph i downloaded swype from my beta invitation in my email. is that the incorrect way to do it?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacoballen22:
What version is the swype? And shouldn't you be naming it Swype.apk with a cap S. I made a video explaining how to apply themes but idk if that's what you're looking for.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robbyhousley:
I know that on Myn's RLS5, all you have to do to change the input method is go to any text box and then long press. It will then bring up "input method". click on that, then choose swype. I don't think it will change anything if you downloaded metamorph, but downloading the swype beta may have changed something. The swype Myn has included with his RLS 5 is the same one from the latest update from Sprint.

I guess if all else fails, start fresh? Wipe everything.

Hope this helps
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Persianity:
thank you this helped a ton but i realized i posted in the wrong forum. i'm trying to theme my swype on my DINC. still having trouble :(
[Android Software Development] MrPadie:
Right. So, on request from a few users below, I shall be giving a very broad description of what clickDot is, and I shall be updating this post with details over the next few days.

Let me just state before I begin:

I am not looking for any testers at the moment, so please, don't waste your time asking to test this. In time, I shall pick a handful of people to help me test parts of the program. Let me also ask that you guys do not ask for a release date - not even I know the release date yet, and I cannot commit to anything. I am a university student, hence I also have other priorities to see to. When I can work and update you guys, I will. Also, for those wanting to know what will be required to run this UI, you may take a look in the FAQ section once I've posted it.

So, back to the description. What I found in my personal experience is that, especially with typical home launchers like LancherPro, ADW, the original Android Launcher or anything of the sorts, is that information can become cluttered. You often need a single widget to display a certain piece of information, and for those who like to have multiple bits of information shown to them simultaneously, find themselves with cluttered home screens that have no consistent theme or look.

Where clickDot differs from most UI's is that it only shows the cluttered information on demand (Pictures will follow to illustrate the idea). The initial home screen of clickDot will only contain a simple bit of information in the center of the screen, mainly about your current surroundings, such as:

All of the above will be shown in a relative manner, that being all fitting into a set theme and look.

If you click on the center of the weather image (Better description and images to follow), a drastic change in the UI will occur. Everything mentioned above will scale away (disappear, with the exception of a few bits of information, mainly being time and date) and a circular disc will appear. The disc will be broken into segments that will contain links to certain other applications and sections of Android. So far, the list of applications that will be developed and built into the UI, are:

The idea of the disc is to give quick access to not only common applications, but information from these respective applications as well. If a segment is clicked, the disc is shrunk to a small circle with the icon of the selected program (hence the dot part of clickDot). The dot then moves to the bottom of the screen, and the respective application is displayed. Once again, images will eventually follow to make this easier to understand.

EDIT:

I have not been able to finish a promo image of the launcher (time is really tight), but here are the weather images I have created so far. Some of them need work still, but this is what I have at the moment. During the day, the sun will always be displayed, and during the night, the moon will always be displayed (as the relevant phase). All other weather images will be layered on top to show the relevant weather. Here is the image:

Thanks,

MrP.

Any screenshots?
[Android Software Development] xmRipper:
Well you've just created a thread to type "coming soon".

Just give us the basic things, then give the details later.

What is ClickDot ?
[Android Software Development] Gahh Its Lee:
I like this thread. This guy is on the ball hes so ahead of the ball that the details are simply the details will be here soon. But on a seriously note it sounds interesting. I like the name.
[Android Software Development] Lennyuk:
"coming soon" threads are against the rules on xda, especially when they are lacking any details at all.

I would not be surprised if you find this thread locked soon.

Unbelievable :)
[Android Software Development] le3ky:
Agreed!!!..
[Android Software Development] MrPadie:
Thanks all for your 'kind comments' :P

The "coming soon" part of the thread was simply due to the fact that where I thought I had time to write up the post, I ended up being dragged off to other plans. That said, I shall have a meaningful post up in the next hour or two :)

I'm hoping you guys will enjoy it, and please, feel free to comment and provide input.

MrP.

EDIT:

As requested, an initial post to briefly describe my idea. More detailed description to follow soon.
[Android Software Development] timmy16744:
i am very intrigued to see what this has to offer, the name sounds cool :P
[Android Software Development] Meltus:
No offense, but i really wish developers would actually develop something before releasing info about it. It's getting very tiresome reading "coming soon!" threads. Most of the time the UI never actually gets completed.
[Android Software Development] Asphyx:
Sounds like an interesting approach but I would need to be able to add sections and items to the DOT before I would be willing to adopt.

I pretty much try to organize my phone into the following categories.

Phone

Voicemail (I use Google Voice)

Email

Messaging

Location

Media

Internet

Social

App Launcher

Unfortunatly LP Pro only has 7 screens so I am up for a new UI that will allow me to do that.

Hope to see screens soon!
[Android Software Development] MrPadie:
Although you do raise a good point, Meltus, which I've seen happen countless times, and although even me, as the developer cannot guarantee that this UI will be fully developed and released in good time, I have to point out one simple fact:

As a developer, I find constructive criticism and commentary on my work a blessing in disguise. If I incorporate the requests and criticism from the community as far as possible into my work, I will hence create a product that is attractive in the sense that it's close, if not exactly what the community wants. Developing the product first could mean a lot of work going back and redoing parts to overcome problems and/or highlight points that I have overlooked.

In my eyes, this is a community. No where in my thread title did I state that the UI has a guaranteed release, or a Beta available, or a release date already. It's simply a post describing my idea to allow the community a chance to input into it before I create a final product, which I would like to finally have.

On a side note, I think this "coming soon" story that was originally in my first post has gone too far. It's got nothing to do with the fact that I'm spamming or trying to build hype, it simply was due to the fact that I had to leave for uni earlier than expected, and could not finish what I was typing up. Hence, I posted "coming soon" instead, and when I got home after uni, updated the post with the finished details, which, isn't even complete yet. Just clearing that up.

@Asphyx - thanks for your input. I haven't given too much thought into the customizability yet of the circle/dot, but it is definitely on the to-do list. I feel the same as you - the user shouldn't adapt to the UI, but instead, the UI should adapt to the user. Let me see what ideas I can come up with, and I'll get back to you. So far, what I have in mind is that the circle/dot will be divided into 12 segments. I might have segments that cannot be changed and segments that can, or I might have them all editable. Where I do not have a separate application developed yet for, say, Media, it will launch the Android default. What I'm also planning on doing is creating a system where you can create as many home screens as need be that you can use to add widgets, and then create a link to these separate home screens in the circle/dot. For example, if you have widgets that you use to view Media information, you can create a panel that is called Media. You can add and edit the widgets on this panel, and you can access it by clicking a corresponding link in the circle/dot. That might appeal to those still wanting to use widgets.

MrP.
[Android Software Development] Meltus:
Sorry, i didn't mean to question your ability or commitment to the project, i'm very aware that some projects just fall by the wayside every now and then and never get completed, which is no fault of anyone.

I fully agree with having community input, i just meant that maybe a photoshp "mock-up" or screenshot would help move things along tenfold.

That way the community can see what the final product may look like and can offer constructive criticism. Getting the code down is all well and good, but the aethestics are what makes a good UI amazing.

Writing what your app will include can be done by anyone (again, i'm not questioning your ability) but showing how these features will be implemented will get a lot of people interested.
[Android Software Development] MrPadie:
@Meltus - Duly noted. Being a uni student, time is often not on my side, but I shall whip up something and hopefully have it up by tonight.

Thanks again for the input,

MrP.
[Android Software Development] antonio1475:
I am really waiting for this!! Looking forward to see it soon!

:)
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
I think if someone's screen is "all cluttered-up" it's their own fault. My Droid X has the home page and 3 screens to the left and 3 screens to the right. I'm assuming most Android devices are somewhat similar. If you've got those ALL filled, I would love to see some screen shots LOL. Only thing I don't like is not being able to set the icon spacing; I can only get 4 icons in a vertical column, it has room for 7.

Granted, this UI is intriguing and may prove interesting. It might be cool to have a UI with just ONE screen...this "dot" idea. I can see it as some type of "fanned" menu or a wheel you can spin to get to items. Like if you long press "Media" the wheel (or dot") can open up "News, My RSS feeds" etc.

Like platters of a disk drive..you see one "flat" wheel, but 20 more are underneath. Especially if you can "flick" the top "wheel", it folds in 1/2 and you see the wheel underneath and can spin it and so on for remaining wheels. Like a stack of CD's you buy...you can have hundreds of virtual wheels :)

This could get interesting.
[Android Software Development] MrPadie:
Thanks Rootstonian for your comment.

I think you've described it the best so far - trying to incorporate as much of the UI into one screen as possible, and constantly change it according to what you're viewing.

To be honest, I didn't imply anything about multiple disc layers, but now that you've brought it up, I quite like the idea. I shall see what I can do about incorporating it into my design. It could really prove useful, especially for things like common settings (on/off switches).

Shall work on this and get back to you guys.

MrP.
[Android Software Development] Meltus:
Haha, i know how that feels! :D

Looking forward to seeing it!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] smee1216:
Hey just looking for some community help here.

Issue: Is there a way to enable the multitouch pinch to zoom feature on the doplhin HD browser. Running nook color of course.

If not thanks for the quick replies tried to do a forum search but came back with a service unavailable.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] -- X10B --:
Is your phone updated?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tunwear:
Run the 4.2 version. Link is in the notes in the Market. 4.3 breaks pinch zoom
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] -- X10B --:
Yup just uninstall youe dolphine and try downloading latest version.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] smee1216:
lol well i run an iphone 4. i work at At&T and have always eben using iOS. Made a nook color tablet instead of shelling out 500 plus for an ipad or galaxy and havent looked back since. Now an avid android fan
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] DatterBoy:
iPhone has great hardware but Android does more.

;)

For HD browser use 4.2 if you are on 1.01 or lower. If you have 1.1 Pinch zoom will work as it should on the most recent 4.3 version.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] burbank:
Dolphin Browser HD 4.3 breaks pinch zoom on the Nook Color. I think if you install 4.2 it will work fine. There's a link to 4.2 in the Market description for Dolphin Browser HD.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] woot1524:
Just want to put this out there for those who are running nookie Froyo. Dolphin HD 4.3 works beautifully in nookie Froyo 6.6.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jasoraso:
The latest B&N version 1.1 fixed pinch zoom, so now Dolw Dolphin Browser HD 4.3 has pinch zoom.

Actually, B&N 1.1 pinch zoom works in the stock browser, and other apps too.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Uberspork:
Yep updating to 1.1 fixed pinch/zoom for me on dolphin.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] BrianDigital:
depends on what android phones hardware your comparing to cliq yes atrix no
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] DatterBoy:
Regardless of what you are comparing it to, Apple does have great hardware. The integrated software/hardware allows the experience to be excellent regardless of whether or not a side by side hardware comparison is made to an android device.

I love Android. When we move into the realm where the Android hardware hands down is sperior to Apple's it'll be more interesting but it is the trademark smoothness that makes Apple products position themselves as they do.

Even with HC coming, at least in pre production, I note most reviews indicate a bit of stickiness and lag. That must be overcome for Android to eclipse Apple. (and a few other things)

Sorry for the Off Topic.

BTW, pinch to zoom on Dolphin 4.3 after 4.3 feels different than it did on 4.2 under 1.0.1. It's better, more responsive and redraws the layout faster.
[Epic 4G General] RushAOZ:
So this same issue happened to me a few weeks ago. I thought something was wrong with my phone hardware wise. I then flashed to the latest midnight and boom auto rotate works beautifully,albeit i had to do the lag fix but it worked. Now Im returning to 2.1 to be ready for 2.2 official and bam its not working again. Anyone know whats going on? Im trying a different file of the di18 official to see if that does the trick but i doubt it...

Does anyone know what the build before di18 was? gonna try flashing to that and upgrading via ota...
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
for screen rotation fix do this: get android terminal from market. type"su" (without "") then type /system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yahama and hit enter. follow the onscreen instructions.
[Epic 4G General] RushAOZ:
I knew that. If you reread my post I said I ran the lag fix on midnight. I cant do it on 2.1 because I dont want to root. root= no ota... right?
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
oh sorry i didnjt see that. if you dont root then no there is no other fix.
[Epic 4G General] spitefulrain:
Without root there is no known way to fix it. At least no posted way. A dev may be able to figure it out. Installing CyanogenMod fixes the problem without having to put in that code, so maybe noobnl or somebody else working on it knows how to fix it.
[Epic 4G General] RushAOZ:
Has anyone even experienced this??? I find it really weird that auto rotate wont work for me on a stock rom but it did on a baked one. Is there a way to unroot and undo everything that one click root 2.5.5.0 does? If so i'll root and fix it then unroot.
[Epic 4G General] RushAOZ:
Whoa when I had z4root it didn't even give an option as to perm or temp let alone an option to unroot. Can I haz teh apk pleez?
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
heres the apk.
[Epic 4G General] notsosmrtgeek:
I also had the same issue. I had to flash back to 2.1 (DI18) because I wanted my phone fixed after i dropped it. You can take it to the sprint store. The service repair tech said he has never seen that happen to an epic before and order me a replacement phone! I started laughing after I hung the phone up. down side its a refurb phone
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
Yyeah that's true. If you ever wanted to.get a replacement phone just do this trick and take it in.

Sent from my Evo Killer!!!
[Epic 4G General] notsosmrtgeek:
With my refurb phone. I rooted it then used odin to go back to stock and the rotation worked fine. When u was first rooted did u use ext 4 roms. That is the only difference between my last phone and this one.
[Epic 4G General] juise:
Root your phone, perform the fix, then unroot your phone, and wait (patiently) for the OTA.
[Epic 4G General] silentshab:
This is totally random, and I don't claim it to be a "fix" per se, but I have had this problem twice after flashing back to 2.1 from 2.2 and both times I was able to fix the issue by playing the included Asphalt 5 demo for a couple minutes (basically long enough to steer the car with the sensors for about a minute or less).
