Modified Launcher:
Current features:
* Customizable number of home screen and default screen. (default 3 screens, can be set from 2 to 10 screens)
* Sensor-based rotation can now be enabled/disabled from the extended settings menu.
* Applications from the application drawer can be hidden by throwing them in the recycle bin.
The ones that are thrown away will not be deleted but in the background a database is kept in which the applications info is stored and i modified the application loading so that it checks against that database and the ones in it will not be shown. This way you can finally organize the menu...
* Ive added an extra menu option to manage the added features. ( Extended )
Updates:
21-07-2009:
Source added ( attached as zip for now )
Somehow the forums zip upload isnt working at the moment ( or it doesnt like the zip file ) , so ive uploaded it to rapid share.
22-07-2009:
Number of homescreens and the default screen can now be set manually in the Extended settings screen.
Added apk ( launcher.zip ) to the first post.
23-07-2009
Sensor-based rotation can now be enabled/disabled from the extended settings menu
Added apk and new dump of complete source.
Side note:
The source has been build/tested against 1.5r2.
Issues:
There is one little bug I know of:
The applications arent removed on first boot... if you reboot everything works fine... I will look into this issue.
Same goes for the settings... you will need to reboot before stuff will be saved correctly.
Downloads:
-- STILL WORK IN PROGRESS SO IF YOU WANT A FULLY STABLE LAUNCHER DONT USE THIS UNTIL ITS TESTED FULLY --
Latest dump of the source can be found at http://rapidshare.com/files/259200651/Launcher_source_090723.zip
Be aware that the code is only a test case. Ill start cleaning up / organize stuff as soon as all the features are done...
And the latest .apk is attached below ( zipped )
Would it be possible to have per home screen menuing, so a different menu can be used for each home screen?
Wow. That sounds awesome rogro! I can't wait to see it. I'll be one of the first guinea pigs
neato
dot folder
Did I hear right? You will now be able to hide apps? Amazing just waht I have been waiting for! Maybe you could password protect the app that "Hides the apps! This is worth donating for!
Since your sharing the apk, you should share the code at github. This way there's no debate if it'll work on this build or that. sharing is what this community's all about.
Will do... as soon as i have everything tested and finished ill upload the source...
Wow ,great job. Been looking for something like this to run on a cupcake ROM. I'm curious though ,the app launcher is it the bigger ones (i.e. 5x4, 6x3) or the original ones.
what happens if you throw that extra menu option, that manages the hidden apps, into the recycle bin???
Universe exploads?
Sounds too good to be true!
I can't wait to try it!
(subscribed to thread)
IDEA!
PLEASE
add a function of picking up and dropping the icon allows a context menu to come up that includes app info page and market info page. (like dxtop)
This sounds awesome.. If you put up a Git repository I'll pull it for sure into my build.
wow can't wait for this sounds great!!
think you can have some sneak peak screenshots of this launcher in action =D
build up the HYPE lol.
this does sound awesome.
can't wait to see release and details!
cyan, i hope you put this on your rom!
i love all your roms!!
i think i'm excited.
yup. i am.
ummm
Any way you could use your superior knowledge to make one that has 3 screens and no auto rotate? I love the idea of being able to hide apps, but am not too fond of 5 screens and auto rotate. I've been replacing Launcher.apk in cyanogen's builds because of this. Does hiding apps make things run a little faster when returning to the home screen with the app drawer open?
Ill first finish this version tonight and then ill look into making the number and default of the home screens customizable, so that everyone can choose for themselves
dude you are to nice with trying to compromise with everyones needs. thats a good artist if i could say. i can be a test subject if you will and willing to try with ne rom or whatever. do it up!!
Added screenshots to first post showing the removal of applications
we've been hurting for home replacements, free ones anyway. Since you're at it, could you look if there's something that can be done to the app-drawer tab to have three clickable regions instead of one? I'm thinking something along the terms of the Rosie tab. You could add options so that the user could customize what each region does (ie, region 1 brings up the app drawer, region 2 brings up the dialer, and region 3 brings up the widget dialog, like rosie). I'd do it myself, I've already worked some pseudocode for it, but alas, my Java syntax is about 6 years too old and I haven't learned much of android's implementation yet.
Hi folks,
I have even more customized the Launcher.apk from rogro82.
I implemented some functionality to create folders in the launcher and to move apps from the launcher into these folders.
As the result the "main menu" should be more clear and controllable.
I'm confused by myself. So here's the description: u17 ist still the old version for cupcake releases. There is a standalone and a replacement. Both are for cupcake based builds.
Then there ist v2.0.1. It's the new version. It's for donut based builds. And it's currently only the replacement version, standalone will come.
So don't use v2.0.1 on cupcake based builds (like cyanogen's 4.0.4 stable) and don't use u17 or u17_replacement on donut based builds (like the cyanogen experimental branch).
Ideas:
Code:
- In the app tray launcher give the possibility to group apps and folders so that they are divided by a thin line with the group name
- Fast up the icon loading even more
- More customization options
Installation (Standalone Version)
Just install the AdvancedLauncher as every other app - It's a "real" home replacement now.
Installation (Replacement Version)
- Plug your USB cable into the phone and your computer
- Make a backup of your original launcher: "adb pull /system/app/Launcher.apk LauncherBAK.apk"
- Remount the /system filesystem: "adb remount"
- Unzip the advanced launcher "unzip Launcher_update_x.zip"
- Push the advanced launcher "adb push AdvancedLauncher_replacement.apk /system/app/Launcher.apk"
- Remove the odex file "adb rm /system/app/Launcher.odex"
- Reboot your phone.
Reverting the installation after making a backup (Replacement Version)
- Remount the /system file system: "adb remount"
- Push your backup: "adb push LauncherBAK.apk /system/app/Launcher.apk"
- Reboot your phone.
Misc things

Update 15 - 30.08
Warning: This version is the first which is a "real" home replacement. This means it can be installed like any other app and you can choose between the original launcher and the advanced launcher. This also means the package name has changed which causes your configuration data to be invalid.
You can "import" you configuration data by copying it into the new folder:
Code:
cp /data/data/com.android.launcher/shared_prefs/extendedlauncher.xml /data/data/com.irrenhaus.advancedlauncher/shared_prefs/
cp /data/data/com.android.launcher/databases/extendeddrawer.sqlite /data/data/com.irrenhaus.advancedlauncher/databases/
cp /data/data/com.android.launcher/databases/extendedsensor.sqlite /data/data/com.irrenhaus.advancedlauncher/databases/
cp /data/data/com.android.launcher/databases/submenu.sqlite /data/data/com.irrenhaus.advancedlauncher/databases/
cp /data/data/com.android.launcher/databases/extendedhome.sqlite /data/data/com.irrenhaus.advancedlauncher/databases/
cp /data/data/com.android.launcher/databases/launcher.db /data/data/com.irrenhaus.advancedlauncher/databases/launcher.db
- Fixed the "cannot-add"-bug
- Fixed the "same-name"-bug
- Removed submenu settings
- Submenu handling is now done fully by drag and drop (Drop a folder from the launcher into the delete zone to delete it. In the menu there is a create submenu button. Long press close button of a submenu to rename it.)
- Added choice dialog when dropping an app icon from the launcher or a submenu onto the delete zone (Default action [hide, mvoe to main menu] or uninstall) so the apps can be uninstalled easier
- Added the possibility to create shortcuts to the submenus onto the home screen
- Hiding & Unhiding apps is now faster
- A few other things I can't remember
Update 14 - 24.08
- Well, no bug fixes, sry. u14 is u13 - but on CM 4.0.2
Update 13 - 14.08
- Fixed the "'" bug
- The only times when the app list is reloaded now is the startup and when you quit the settings dialog, so when you move apps using drag and drop the list is immediately updated. The whole thing is faster now.
The source can be found at my git repository
Have fun with it
whoa very nice gonna follow this development =D
nicee i really like where this is going. having ability for folders within the drawer and putting apps within those folders is AWESOME! subscribed. can we hope for one to come to the jac hero roms? haha
im assuming this is built off of rogro82's launcher mod right?
with this launcher are we able to choice how many screens we want? If so what needs to happen to get this to Hero so we can have only 3 screens while using Touch?
Wow, this will be very useful when done. I hope this gets into a nice theme too.
I would like to have something like this with the other launcher that can hide the icons. Best of both worlds, being able to hide stuff completely (ie widget icons) but also manage the apps you dont want hidden.
Good work
advanced features
Looks really good so far!
I think if you could add a feature that popped up a context menu when you pick up an icon and drop it. (like dxtop) Its way more convenient and 90% of the reason that I use dxtop. Uninstalling programs and finding them in the market takes a tenth of the time.
Please consider trying it, IMO, It would put this launcher over the top!
Amazing. I've been waiting for exactly this since day one of apps2sd. I cant wait till its ready. I'd love to beta test for you if your looking. otherwise, i'll just have the wait patiently.
Nice nice nice! Just yesterday I was thinking about this feature ;D
Very nice idea! I would love to hide all the useless crap in my main menu Like the themes and icon packs I have installed... or the default apps that I never use (google chat, amazon MP3, email, netcounter, Terminal, twidgit (it's a widget...), voice dialer, voice search )
Any way I can port this to Magic's cyanogen 3.6.8?
Well, the Launcher is based on the one out of the repositories from cyanogen. This launcher is the one from rogro82 with my patch to close folders when an app is started out of it.
At this point I just have customized it more so thanks to rogro82 you can completely hide apps AND create subfolders.
I really don't know on which mods it will run 'cause I ever used cyanogen's...
But when its ready, we will know for shure
I haven't tested this code yet.. Is it ready? Let me know and I'll pull from you.
Not yet ready but I am close to it ^^ I'll let you know

you never use Terminal!! wow, also u can delete amazon mp3, remount system as read/write and rm the amazon.apk from /system/app folder i wouldnt do that for email or google chat though
Looks really great. But what about performace?
Im also going to pull your code, so that we are on the same level again... Are you working on other features at the moment?
Im thinking about a setting to show the active homescreen number.
Too bad we cant use one thread so that this board doesnt get flooded with changes and will get hard to keep up with by users. Maybe we should setup a "shared" thread and use something like a google project to have a shared base. I dont know how you think about this.
Hi, i think your job is all we was wating , folders into menu! It's fast.
Thanks.
BR.
Does anyone know where i would begin to modify the browser.apk file codes from the lastest super d 1.4 rom? i like the browser better than the latest loccy version ( no disrespect) but i want to add the features that loccy had such as remove the notification bar, double/triple tap zoom functions and mobile web settings. I havent seen an update to the browser yet and its been out for about a month, i want to try and get to work on it myself, but im not sure where to begin or where to find the code. I have all the sdks, and im a intermediate user of adb, terminal emulator etc. ( 1 whole year havent bricked my device yet lol)
Thanks in advance devs
yeah son
loccy is slacking on his mackin, slipping on his pimpin... he should a definately been on it................. orrrrr is heee.. hmmmmmmmm.... ::Maybe loccy got flash working on the 2.0 browser n hes working out the bugs:: ... maybe not.. im a paitently waiting.. it a hapen sooner or later just a matter a time.. thanks for bringing it up though
Have you tried PM'ing Loccy? He PERFECTED the Cupcake/Donut browser... I'm sure he can do the same for Eclair.
i think he may have used smali/baksmali to do it http://code.google.com/p/smali/
Huh.. I was the one who backported it, and all the code is on my Github repository. It requires the new Webkit and Skia stuff which was also backported (and on Github).
I'm going to start adding some of his features if he doesn't

Also you should try and take flash from the hero so we can play on miniclip and do other things lol
PS: is your CM Updater made using JF updater?
@ Cyanogen : yea if u can add some of those features that would be cool. But would i have to have your rom to use it Cyanogen? Or can i rip the browser.apk from yours and use it on the super D rom? He says your rom and dwangs rom = his rom

Cyan... you ooze awesomeness. Every time I think, wow, this ROM is perfect, if only it had this feature... you add that feature in your next build. Even if it's one I thought we wouldn't see for a long time, if ever on a Donut ROM (Like the backported Eclair browser itself, for example).
Okay, enough gushing. May I make a suggestion? Automatically toggle fullscreen on/off based on the urlbar visibility. When it is fully visible, show the notif. bar. When the urlbar is partially or completely hidden, hide the notif. bar. Best of both worlds! You just scroll all the way up to see both bars. But the first thing it needs is a fix for zooming out and lifting one finger before the other... if you feel so inclined as to work on that....

MY updater is..lol...
well, the very first version of it was just the JF updater with a few words changed and graphics changed....
but we went from the BETA to 1.0 to 1.5 to 2.0 within a matter of days
infact, from the time of my opening post til it made it to market was 23hours 42 minutes...lol
so...yea....the core is based on the JF updater

Any updates on the browser progress?
Yes, are there any updates?
Welcome to February 2010
Trailblazer101's Custom Framework Maker v6
Now with my batch program, creating your own personalized Framework is as simple as 1.2.3!
This batch created by me was created with the "noob" in mind.. Of course this "noob" must already have Java installed, and should have ADB set up correctly
Features:
- Easy-To-Use Framework Chooser (with support for your own framework!)
- Softkey Themer (with easy access to create your own!)
- Custom Softkey Mapping Support (Nexus S included, easy to create and add your own!)
- 1.2.3 Package Creating (and Pushing/Rebooting into Recovery too!*)
- Unique Ticker Clock Color Selection (type in whatever color you can think of!*)
-Weather Icon and/or History Button Removal! (Actually removes the Icons, not just blanks them over!)
-Drag-and-Drop Functionality! (Includes all the tasks that you will ever want to do with an *.apk or *.jar)
-Automatically Checks for Updates! (Warns you if there in an update, displays text about the update, and opens up your browser to this page )
-Option to Set my Program as the Default Action for APKs and/or JARs! (So when you click on an APK and/or JAR, it'll open up my program!)
-Lots of Extras and Bugfixes! (Check it out!)
Developer's Mode! (You can find the option to enable it in Extras -> Program Settings!)
Future Proof! and Bug fixes (The method it now uses to set the Ticker Modifications works no matter what is going on with your Standbymode.xml file!)
Ability to Change Pressed Clock Color!* (You must be on a ROM that supports this to notice any changes...)
NEW: Compatibility with Gingerbread Mods!
NEW: Shows History in the choose file screen!
NEW: Set Update Settings from Program!
The function of this Program to create a new, all your own, Flashable Package that has your own personal touch to it
The wonderful thing about this program is that you can use this with any old framework-res file from any rom/mod package! This means that you can create your own themed framework from DJ20 up to EC07
There are only two stipulations: 1) that you are running a deodexed rom, which means that there are no .odex files located withing the system/framework folder or system/app folder... If you are in doubt about this, a stock rom straight from the store will NOT work! But pretty much any rom found on this website works 2) You have Java installed, and should have ADB properly set up!
Now, let's get down to specific details about the different functions and terminology:
1) Towards the top of the main page is very important! This is an easy view of what settings you currently have applied Always keep an eye out on this, to make sure that you have selected everything that you want to select!
2) Default= Not Changed... Whatever the previous framework had, this option will allow the new framework to have it too... This includes history button/weather icon removal!
This Just In: Add your own Color to the Ticker Clock! This is still in beta stages, so be careful when changing the color... If you see any error messages, DON'T ATTEMPT FLASHING THE PACKAGE... But if it works for you, you have the easy and convenient ability to set any color you want for the Clock in a matter of seconds!
Also, You can now remove the Ticker Buttons on the main screen automatically, within seconds! And the icons are removed, not just covered up!
A new feature recently added was the option for custom Softkey Mapping! This setting can be found under extras, then under Softkey Remapping As of right now there is only the Nexus S remapping, with the original added in in case anyone flashed the Nexus S one and wants to make a new package to go back, but you can make your own easily! Just use the original mapping as a starting point, and go from there
You are more than welcome, and actually encouraged, to add your own! You can copy in your own personal framework, and you can make your own folder with your own Images!
*Notice: Make sure if you do make your own images that the image names are the same as the original! This is important, or the batch will not work!
I have said this before, and I will say this again... Please, for the sake of the community, if you make a package, please upload it I will be more than happy to share it on the front page of one of my Threads, giving you all of the credit
If you have found this Batch helpful, almost to the point of a godsend, you can click that Donate to me button if you want

You got that right. Unless there's another below somewhere else =)
Re-Uploaded! Please download and try it out, and be sure to leave comments/suggestions!
hmmm well tried v3,
adb said successful push, wasnt, did it manually.
ticker color mod created w/o previous error via v2
flashed and after pause on bootup went black and did the vibrating jig.
restoring now...
tested w/o success gonna try with my pulled frameworks, might be because of recent added settings mod.
great job non the less tb101!
Yeah, build v2 didn't actually say an error message when it should've, so that is actually a good thing kinda, haha...
Can you tell me please what settings you applied? Like, what framework, softkeys (if any), auto-create etc etc
BTW: I am on the IRC, that might be faster
yeah i havent done anything to my phone since the restore after the failed flash.
i used the ec07 builtin frameworks, original softkeys, and purple color on ticker lol.
i opted to push in adb and it said it was successfully pushed, but it wasnt.
side note:
been real busy with tune up etc on the cars i own and work. hopefully this weekend i can try again. and fully set up my new to me dual screen xp64 media pc with adobe master suite. partitioned correctly this time to install the droid dev kit in windows and live cd....
updated OP with new version! has Weather Icon and History button removing
finally thanked the post, cause.... it finally worked for me. thanks again.
is there a dif from op and the one i got last night?
Haha, thank God it finally works for you xP you were like the only one xP
And uh, not anything big I don't think, haha... But probably safe to switch to this version anyways, just in case xP
Sent from my SCH-I400 using xda premium
Whenever I choose to remove the ticker history button and push the framework to my phone my phone won't boot afterwards. I've tried twice
Can you look in the log for me and see if anything is error-ish?
And how are you pushing the framework?
And are you using a framework that matches your current set up?
Sent from my SCH-I400 using xda premium
I didn't notice any errors. I pushed it using the script and doing it myself through adb like I always have. Yea I'm using the framework that I pulled from my phone right before using the script.

I made this for anyone who uses most of the same apps and stuff and dont care for the stupid side/dockbar and who don't know or dont want to hassle going thru all the crap to get the rom customized to the point where its actualy user friendly. You can now make FULL use of all your desktop space, you can add extra desktops and with all the most popular apps already installed you still have some memory free to install more.
Enjoy ....
Nice
One question, isn't SuperUser Elite a payed app?
no idea really. i just loaded from my backup apps folder, i hope not...
ext4 partition support?
Hi,
How can i use my ext4 partition on your rom which has formatted a partition program by windows based.
PS. i have never used this EXT4 partition..
i have tried CM and SuperOSR but,
internal seeing always 150mb in total.
If someone describe me using ext4 partitions step by step, i will be greateful
Sounds like you have partition issues, You are asking in the wrong section. This is a rom release, not a partition repair thread.
its good bro but not impressed, u just add few more apps to Rom n release it with very less internal memory..if u really would like to do with this ROM then configure front camera n release it or do some necessary changes for better experience..these application r easily available in market..everybody can add more application & release it with SuperOSR version 3 or 4...please don't copy someone's effort...
ROM is Already gud in itself...
O please, firstly i have taken no credit, neither did i say i changed anything on the rom. Secondly all roms are based on other roms, so everyone is taking stuff from everyone else. PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU POST.
Thirdly, this release is a UI customisation change, not a new rom release. the current superos has a UI that I don't like, all the icons are badly sitting awkwardly on the right hand side, the left column of the screen cant even be used. the dockbar is wasting valueble space and with such a small screen, very few people can click the dock buttons properly. the problem is that they didnt design the rom specificly for just the chacha but for more than one device and as such never took the time to sit with a single device and fix the little things, and If they dont want to fix the UI then why shouldnt i ?
Fourthly, you are right, i didn't have to add the apps, but these are apps most people will use and load anyway so why not just add them into the rom ?

That's why it's called open source.
Btw, munishjoshi, most ROMs are based on AOSP, which is Android Open Source Project, that has about 2000 people around the world working/have worked/will work on it and you don't see any credits to any of them.

my intention was not to steal thunder from anyone. Its just so bloody annoying that everytime i flash superos i must keep fixing the UI and reload all these apps and there must be others out there that feel the same way, this is reason i posted this. if no one has any use for it ill remove it and let everyone be happy...
I am already working on a release of a stripped down Stock Sense rom. and on that rom i am actualy editing the rom itself, not just the UI. Altho it will be a while before its done.
hey don't take it otherwise bro...i just would like to say that do something new...waiting for your further updates...
Apart from the UI there is nothing else to do on this rom. the rom is perfect as it is. just the UI needed adjustment.
Wait for my new rom if you want to see major changes ...

Please adhere to the old addage "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it". Customization is why we all come to xda, either enjoy what is freely given to you, or do it yourself.

Your language and tone are unneeded, but your message is fine. I edit your posts so you can see how to get your point accross without cursing. Please look.
Can we all try to get along?
Let's have this battle end here and now, and move on.
Thank you all.
Ok boss...thanks
Keep on the good work.. nice to see more people are devolping and customizing for the chacha..
does this rom fix wifi issues and front camera?
nope. i did not make any fixes to the rom itself, i just customized the UI to be more user friendly and edited some cache settings and stuff.

True, SuperOSR wasn't designed especifically for the Chacha. We focused our effort on making it work. What is a great thing of OpenSource is that people can help and join to the effort. In that case, if you fixed the UI as you say you did, do not hesitate to send your modification so they can benefit everyone.
Now, if by fixing the UI you mean you replaced Launcher with ADW, then IMHO you didn't "fix" it.
Changes made to the rom :
Changed UI to ADW Launcher ( the default launcher was crap, and also only allowed you to use only 3 rows of the deskspace for icons )
Removed Dockbar, screen is small enough and dockbar space is wasted.
Limited the screens to 2, can add more via the ADW Launcher settings.

lol, sorry wrong choice of words, i didn't mean fix as in it was broke. i just meant it wasnt very user friendly and customised it to be more so.
