Folder Icons

I've made MANY...as I do the same...organizing my apps in category folders. I currently use...

Core or Home (the "main" apps that can't go on the dock...calendar, email, camera..)

Utilities (file explorer, back ups, battery monitor, etc)

Customize (custom clock widgets, beautiful weather...stuff that has an app for settings)

Tools (stuff that makes the phone and you productive. Dropbox, springpad, maps, QR scanners..)

Services (bank apps, travel apps, market, shopper)

News and Info (RSS reader, weather, wolfram..)

Leisure or Fun (yelp, urban spoon, netflix, imdb, youtube)

Connect (linked in, facebook, talk, various chat sites, ebuddy)

Games...

I almost always use an existing icon set that I downloaded, though it has to be a large one. I do also make my own icons.

Using any graphics program (Gimp, Photoshop, I use Illustrator), you can give them a background, title, etc. My current trend is to use Desktop Visualizer and make the folder icons 2x1, so they show up as special.

Posted some examples...the one labeled "various" has most of what you might be looking for. If you can't see it well, let me know. As you can see...I've been busy LOL

Hope that helps and gives you some ideas. If there is anything I can do to help, let me know.

Can you make an icon pack

Allow me to bump this thread...

I have applied an icon pack but they're not changing in Folder Organizer. I have tried many things, but no luck... Any suggestions?

Thank you

Pure htc sense you can try 3rd sense or gratiousslide, or miguels other sense rom that I forget the name of. Those have the htc animations and such. If you want one where everything works perfectly, grab miguel's 2.1 sense rom. Should be easy to find. I can't link it right now, on my phone.

I looked for everywhere bit couldn't find any link to clockwork recovery 3.0(ext4 partitions) or ny other that I can use with unrevocked..to make or erase ext4 partitions
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Using a recovery to partition ext will only partition ext2/3 at best. To get 4 you can run some scripts or something that will upgrade the ext partition, or you can format it using something like Gparted or Easus.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wildcardspv:
I definitely recommend doing any partitioning with Gparted, cos I'm running Clockworkmod 3.0 on an SLCD desire (installed during rooting with Unrevoked) and the partitioning option never works. Neither does ROM Manager, whereas Gparted has never failed me once.

Keep ROM manager on your phone though, cos sometimes, 3.0 cant flash a zip cos of some edify script issue, so if this ever happens, go into ROM manager and tell it to flash clockworkmod, then ask it to boot into recovery. It will boot you into clockworkmod 2.5.0.7 as a one off, and flashing these zips in 2.5.0.7 always works.

After you flash the zip and reboot back to android, next time you try to use clockworkmod you'll be back to 3.0.

Here's the thread where you can get Clockworkmod 3.0.0.5:

Does wiping SD ext4 partition works with clockwork recovery 3.0...coz that the only reason I need it for for partition I'm using g parted 2..n g parted works great..thx for the link
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wildcardspv:
Hmmmm, sorry man, I've only ever used an ext3 partition so I can't say for sure. I does wipe ext3 though.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
You should avoid using Rom Manager. It doesn't work properly and causes more problems than what it solves.

In my opinion, use CWM 2.5.0.7 because it works and all scripts work with it. Until there is an official release for 3.0, it won't work properly.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wildcardspv:
This would be the ideal option, but I found that when using 2.5.0.7 creating backups failed, which is a pretty important feature!!

That's the only reason why I changed to 3.0.0.5.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] senakiro:
Hello,

I recently got a brand new DHD from T Mobile UK. Naturally, I wanted to get rid of the bloatware that came with it. To cut the long story short, I tried to install the cyanogenmod software and ended up bricking my phone. At first it would not get past the cyanogenmod start up screen (spinning smoke thing). Now it will not boot past the T Mobile logo.

I am desperate and any solution to give me back ANY funstionality of the phone would e great. :( :(

Kind Regards.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jords12:
Can you get into the bootloader? Try turning it off, then holding the power button and volume down - I think the easiest method is to hold volume down, press the power button for a few seconds (still holding volume), then let the power button go and after that the volume button. Seems to get me into the bootloader reliably.

If you can get into the bootloader, you should be able to flash back to the stock rom by placing a file on the SD card - not certain of the exact method there but someone will know :)

I wouldn't worry too much unless you were flashing the bootloader (hboot) to get s-off - as I understand it, the only real way to brick these devices is if you corrupt the bootloader.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laxwillsch:
What exactly did you do? I agree with the previous poster that you probably did not brick your phone you just need to get into the bootloader and flash a backup, if you made one. Also what ClockworkMod Recovery are you using. I know that if you flashed with 3.xxx you will need to flash an older version of CWM something like 2.xxx

If you give us more info we could prob help more

What is the best vibrant rom for battery life? This is going to be for my g/f :P I am running MIUI on my evo and was happy to see the vibrant starting to get a taste of that greatness :)

Anyone have a recommendation for best battery life? I have flashed team whiskey's bionix but it's draining the battery like crazy, battery is dead in literally 6-8 hour with little use, no apps installed, nothing......
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
as batttery-wise..

Master's Axura has always done the trick for me.

But the key is to recondition your battery.

Recondition it on every rom you go and you will definately last 15+ hours easily with light-moderate use
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] All~G1:
Stock, bionix v, nero 5... either of these will do. If you want to see some great extended battery life I would suggest to dl the "superpower" and "setcpu" apps. If you tweak these two Apps they can make a big difference.

Most I got out of nero5 as 32+ hours.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
Gotta say, the Axura really has the best battery of all the roms I have used and I have used them all, but remember your specific usage habits affect the battery life results.....
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wearmaize:
Axura has been great for me. I've been on axura, bionix, and nero v5 and axura is by far the best.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyCharlie:
I've tried just about every rom out there at this point and they all get decent battery life for me. It's when I start using OC kernels that I start seeing alot of battery drain but even those are getting better.
[Epic 4G General] skeeterslint:
OK I will put this out there for everyone so we don't have a million threads going on this subject.

1 If your on DI18 stock and rooted with a simple root method you will get the OTA, you will lose root.Also having CWM installed will not break the OTA but you will lose CWM due to the stock recovery being flashed.

2 If your on a DI18 rom that you have flashed with CWM you will get the OTA but it will fail due to the rom not being stock the OTA zip will check for this and if your not on the stock rom the OTA will fail to install.

3 If you have a stock rom with any bloatware removed the OTA will also fail to install the OTA zip file will check your system to make sure its stock.

4 If you running a leaked Froyo build like DK28 or DK17 or any rom made from those leaks you will probably not get the OTA notification at all you will have to reflash back to stock DI18 to get the OTA.

The best thing to do if your running a rom is to wait on someone to make a flashable zip to convert from DI18 to EB13 or a zip to flash from a DK28 rom to EB13 it might take a day or two to get it converted but it will happen after all this time waiting for it another day or two shouldn't kill anyone.
[Epic 4G General] adelmundo:

I have stock DI18 with root, but I have deleted some of the sprint bloatware, what does that mean for me as far as OTA update, will I still recieve it or will I have to do a song and dance to get it. Any advice would be helpful :)
[Epic 4G General] djbacon06:
So my question is, I have stock DI18 (Odined back from dk28 last night) and rooted using oneclick root with CWM 2.5.whatever(not CWM3). I have read that if you are rooted and want to receive the OTA update you must not have deleted any stock applications. Oneclick root deleted the stupid asphalt 5 game demo and I am wondering if this is considered a stock app that may affect the result of downloading the update.

edit: just saw the post above mine after i finished writing this one!
[Epic 4G General] JettMartinez:

[Epic 4G General] squshy 7:
+1 ^^^

Seems to be a conflict of criteria...is asphalt demo not considered a "stock" app? If it is, then by the OPs criteria even havin root would break the OTA since one-click removes asphalt...

A little clarification please?

[Epic 4G General] Demianwulf:
I think the main point is everyone should just wait until a cooked up rom is released....who cares if you get the OTA? Ultimately, aren't you just going to put a custom rom/kernel on your phone anyway?
[Epic 4G General] squshy 7:
I'm gonna say this one more time. SOME of us just want to have the littlest, simple satisfaction of receiving the cool little feature of an Over-The-Air upgrade. Because really, how many times does it happen? Its like I want to go outside when there's a comet passing by. Yes, I could just pop in a DVD about comets with nice high-def imagery and commentary by Morgan Freeman, but I didn't actlly DO it.

So do not deny nor judge this opportunity for us. If you cant , then don't post here. The thread isn't titled "why the hell would you retards do an ota just wait for some warezzzzzzzzz! Lolzzzzzzzz!" So contribute if you can, otherwise don't.

Plus....SOME of us have been on a 2006 winmo powered brick for the past 5 years and we got to miss out on this fancy little thing called a firmware upgrade...over the air! OVER THE AIR!

What should someone do to prepare for the OTA

Well as someone said above, not every one has gone through a OTA update (I came to the EPIC from a true PALM when the software was really worth something) and some guidance may keep us from having major problems.

The only thing I could think of was to backup my EPIC. I used MyBackup Pro and backup to both my card and online. Anything else I should do????

[Epic 4G General] a2tz:
Thanks for the detailed informed post. We need more like them.
[Epic 4G General] bgreiwe:
I figure this is the best place to ask this.

I am stock and rooted with one click. I am not running any custom roms. Will there be a stock/rooted release that I can dl from this site or am I going to need to odin back to complete stock and take the OTA update. The majority of what I have been reading is to let your rom maker create a new one. Since I don't want a custom Rom yet, will I be able to get the stock/rooted update.

Thanks!
[Epic 4G General] iSaint:
After the OTA starts going out there will be one up on this site pre-rooted and complete stock within like 5 hours.
[Epic 4G General] bgreiwe:
Awesome... that waswhat I wanted to hear. I will try out roms eventually butwant to see stock first.
[Epic 4G General] In_da_buff:
So wait for the OTA - b/c it's a once in a lifetime event with Samsung and Sprint at the wheel?

Then wait a few hours to root it and use a custom rom cloned off the official 2.2?

I not sure how I feel about the "official" 2.2 - anyone think it will be filled with bloatware and have certain functions and features locked down (b/c ultimately Samsung and Sprint still see it as "their" phone so?

I really want the f**king Sprint Nascar crapp off of my phone - I could probably name a dozen others - but we'll have to wait and see what the OTA brings.

Ultimately, nobody really knows what is gonna happen with the OTA or the details until it comes out and some reverse engineers it and breaks it down.
[Epic 4G General] SkepticalOptimist:
What about ext4? Will the ota froyo work on etx4 or will I need to go back to rfs?
[Epic 4G General] skeeterslint:
Yes asphalt 5 is a stock app if it was on the phone the first time it was powered up its a stock app.I was unaware that the one click deleted asphalt so yes in this case more then likely the ota will fail.The changes that the one click makes are very simple changes it adds su and Superuser.apk and backups up one minor file that the update script in the OTA zip doesn't look at this is why normally the one click root does not cuase an OTA to fail, but if any of the apps are removed this will be the OTA.

This I cannot say for sure but the chance is high this might bork it also but YMMV with this.
[Epic 4G General] klownin816:
I had the same issues regarding the preloaded Asphalt 5 demo being deleted by oneclick root. After searching the forums, I came across noobnl's post about the stock D18 rom found here

[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Basically, if you want the OTA, odin to 2.1 and don't root. Update when you get the message, and then do whatever.

LOL just saw this after I posted!
[Epic 4G General] babystewie:
Sorry for being a newb. How do I install this?
[Epic 4G General] jnadke:
The biggest reason NOT to get the update OTA is in case they patched any root vulnerabilities.

You may not see root for a few days then.

Correct me if I'm mistaken, but it's easier to add root when people tear apart the update.zip, rather than develop a root exploit after the phone has been flashed...

Personally, I'm gonna wait a week until people get out a clean ROM with the DRM cooked out. Then I'll wipe my phone, so I can start fresh from a clean state. Maybe even go EXT4.
[Epic 4G General] blspyro:
Stock froyo will be rfs however wait a little bit and since ext4 is faster somebody probably will release a converter.

Having been through the last OTA here is a tip:

Make sure you download all apps (paid) in advance and back them up to your SD card

. Otherwise you're gonna have problems as Sprint and Google never seem to get their **** wired until a week or so later.

The only thing I really have a question about is if Samsung will have the EB13 tar file up on their site to flash with Odin right away or not. I ask because I have my Epic on boost mobile and obviously won't get any OTA. I saw the .tar file posted up on Samsung's site now but AFIAK that is just the source code and it won't do jack if I flash it in Odin.

I suppose I'll just wait for someone on here to post up a manual update since I prefer to manually update anyway. There are like a million devs out there and tomorrow is a holiday so I'm sure everyone is going to be up till like 6 AM this morning and then either crash or drink a bunch of Red Bull/5 hour energy to keep going lol. I have faith that there will be a manual 2.2 update out by tomorrow night as well as a root method. Z4 might even work right off the bat but I would not try until there is at least a EB13 .tar file out so if it bricks it is easy to fix.

For everyone else:

1 - If you are on anything other than stock 2.1 (eclair DL18) and want to OTA, then you should Odin back TONIGHT, don't root/anything and plug your phone in for a 100% charge. Then patiently await your OTA to push. If you don't know what Odin is or how to flash back there are a million threads on how to do it. It literally takes 5 minutes to go back to stock DL18.

2 - For Angry Birds or any other games you want to keep your levels/data/etc... download an app called Titanium Backup and backup all your user data. Once you get the OTA and redownload all your apps, restore the data and you SHOULD have all your stuff back to how it was before.

3 - Search Search Search. How to get back to DL18, RFS filesystems, Roms, Kernels etc... This site is massive and the internets knows all. If you can think of a question I will say 99% of the time it has already been asked and answered... multiple times.

I am looking forward to this update, but am skeptical of it really being much better than DK28. All I really want is the headphone passthrough for the car dock to work properly and the overclocked kernels that can come out now like 2.1 has. I've been running Truly Epic on DK28 for awhile now and the Epic at stock 1.0 GHZ is ridiculously faster than my Droid X is at 1.35 GHZ.

If I Odin back to DI18, obviously my auto rotate will be screwed. But will it be fixed when I upgrade OTA? Or will I have to root?
[Epic 4G General] AproSamurai:
If you're currently on DK28 then yes, that will be the case but what you do is once you're on DI18 you root your phone download a terminal emulator and run sensorcalibutil_yamaha go through the prompts and then reboot your phone. It should then work, then you can use titanium backup and backup all the apps you want odin back to completely stock DI18 and then you're back in business.:)

Sensor calibrations aren't wiped with the flash and since you went from DK28 to DI18 the sensors way of being utilized is a bit different making it unusable on an older firmware set.

Hopefully this is of some help.:)

You can unlock the levels of Angry Birds by running an app called "Angry Birds Level Unlocker" from the Market, although, it won't retain your scores.

I uninstalled a couple of the bloatware using an app called "Uninstaller for Root," and I don't have a way in the app to find out which ones I uninstalled. If I were to reinstall the bloatware, how would I find the bloatware I have uninstalled? Would reinstalling the bloatware make the OTA think it's a complete stock ROM?
