Reduce Home Pages in Rosie UI Roms - myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development

Hello,
I have tried a few of these hero roms on my mt3g. I was wondering if there was anyway to disble certain home screens to save up on ram and possible speed up the roms a bit. Sorry if this is in the wrong section btw. Also I've done a few searches already and have found nothing. I appreciate any imput and suggestions.
Thanks a bunch! :]

There is a way, but I have not seen it on the Hero roms as of yet.. just 1.5 builds.. too bad they couldn't port it over.

[ROM] MghtyMax 1.9 Hero

After messing around with about 5 or so different ROMs i found, what i think to be the fastest Hero ROM ever.
http://htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=918
It runs really well, and is very snappy.
For myt3g, it needs the blurry fix, which he provides also... but after that... no bugs whatsoever. I am running this on a class4 sandisk 4gb flash, with 512 ext4 and 192 swap. awesome!
32A Or 32B ??
32B, since its for the MT3G/G1
32B. i am loving it!
Did he fix the boot screen so it doesn't scream Mightmax at you? I can't have that screaming at me at a client meeting
Faster than MLIGN-HeroV2.5.5?
Yes, better without screaming MightyMax! on boot

For my work well on a Vodafone 32b, only many app crash without apparent reason, any solution for it?
-CarMode
-FonMaps
-Buka
-SU File Manager & Terminal
And many others apps can't work on this ROM
Can you solve this feature?
And one more question, is possible base this ROM on Android 1.6? I think it can work more fast with Donut, because it is more optimized for 32b devices.
Wow!!!
I was a little skeptical about trying a ROM from a dev from another site, but man I'm glad I did. This thing is incredible! I've only been using it for about 5 hours but I think this just shut the Hero ROM game down! I made a 192MB swap partition with 80 swappiness, and clocked the CPU to 384-528. No force closes, no reboots, apps spring open, the desktop screens scroll fluidly, apps pop open immediately, very fast keyboard, so far this seems fast as vanilla Android! So far my only complaint is there is no weather on the flip clock for some reason. I have been using "Weather Widget - Donate" from the Market instead. Oh, and the Mighty Max audio clip during start up is a little annoying, but definitely not a deal breaker. Try it, trust me!
How fast? Good enough??
Personally I don't think talking about the word fast any more an issue for 32A Magic. I have been trying most of 32B Hero ROMs and there is noting significant I say about them on my 32A. Every Hero ROM looks frikin fast to me now.
I believe is that how much of battery would run along on a single charge that what we should address on Hero ROMS now. Drizzy's Blur 1.5.7 Hero ROM last long fine. After all its CyanogenMod 4.1.999 is that I can say the best.

Well I can say that with 32B devices performance typically varies greatly with different ROMs. So far I'm loving this on my 32B sapphire. Enjoy that extra RAM, show off .
smoothest hero rom yet for me, he did a good job on this

This ROM is posted here on xda in the dream forum -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=570700
I flashed it last night - 32b - and I have to say, I'm impressed and surprised. This one is running really smooth - and very responsive. "Best" one I've tried yet.
Where is this guy, and why is he not active in XDA?!
This is BY FAR the best Hero ROM i have ever tried... WOW!
THANK YOU FOR SHARING! (I could kiss you! haha)
MightyMax, I could kiss you too!
One question: Has anyone tried straining from the default swap settings, maybe enabling CC and backing_swap? If so, please post your results.
Personally I find this ROM flying, and even Benchmark Pi is FASTER than with CyanogenMod, but I am wondering what we could get by playing around with CompCache... In the meantime, I'm going to try and tweak it, and be sure to post results back here.

Well as pbaird mentioned in the post before yours he is active on XDA, in the Dream section. He goes by the name of mghtyred. After scanning through that thread I know he dropped Compache because it was causing problems. LS has always seemed faster to me anyway.
touchflo crashes all the time for me when i press the home button coming from an app, anyone else get this? i was thinking of extending the linux swap but i cant because im not an admin on my computer...anyone got any performance hints?

MotoBlur and Pulse.... Why??

Why is no one porting MotoBlur and Pulse to the Sapphire MT3G? Why is everyone so stuck on Hero?
There HAVE been blur ports in the past. Do a little research before you make generalized statements. And Hero is more popular because it already came off an HTC device. It's easier to cook.
Please do just a little research before creating a new topic!
now the real question is why we dont see these for the 32a
Moto Blur & Pulse
Question, and maybe someone can direct me where to find it but whats the difference between Pulse, and Motoblur?
Polaris and Ronni... I did research before posting and found only one pulse rom and 3 motoblur roms compared to the hundreds of hero roms. My post was simple and just a question. Why? That was all. If I was a youngster with no forum know how, then your down talking would be understood. Thanks anyway.

Sorry but your post "Why is no one porting MotoBlur and Pulse to the Sapphire MT3G?" makes it seem like you didn't research at all. Like polaris0352 wrote is that Hero is easier to cook plus it's more popular. But i hope it won't be long before we start to see more non-htc roms for our magics!
I think part of the reason is that GPS and WiFi don't work, which means the uptake is a lot less. Once WiFi and GPS are working (which apparently won't happen until Dragon is available) then I'd bet more ports of these roms will start to appear. I like Blur and would make it my permanent rom if the wireless wasn't an issue.

because hero comes from an HTC phone wich would lead one to believe it would be much easier to run on our HTC phones...
motoblur was alright didnt like the feel and its hard to make moto and HTC play nice
Pulse....welll.... i think pulse sucked others like it though
I know there are at least 3 pulse roms that are decent and there are 2-3 blur roms that run enough to use

Im running a Blur Rom that WiFi is working on but there were no instructions on partition setup, if any. It is real smooth but when I put my own wallpaper on, it seems to slow down a bit.

Can you Post a Link to the WiFi working Blur?
I've not seen any Blur with WiFi working at all due to the Kernel requirements.
I will have to find the link for you guys. The Rom is running on my MT3G 32B Rooted. Im going to assume that the WiFi works for that Im using WiFi Tether to connect to the internet with my laptop as I type. I will get a link after while. The file name is MotoCliq_v0.5.zip. I think Drizzy put it out. Not for certain though.

The reason for the lack of ports is honestly the firmware being so tied to social aspects. All the "cool" features are in the UI with the social stuff, but the rest of the firmware... well... sucks. I ported both and got bored in a couple days. Hero has new dumps and new versions of sense and the prospect of updating to 1.6 and eventually 2.0 These are done. One dump, one version, no projected future. Not much room to grow. Hero has all the features this does and then some, with the exception of universal inbox and the way launcher reacts. Pulse isnt really much of a ROM, either. Its just a cool UI and a bunch of paid apps put together into a firmware.

I hear ya. I just get tired of looking at the same bottom bar and out of all the times I try to ask for help, no one wants to share on how to get started making my own with my own look. I have seen a hero rom with a somewhat Pulse bottom bar and it looked killer but the slowness of the rom was not bareable.
I actually flashed the new Andriod 2.0 Eclair to my phone. It is a stripped down Rom and has nothing in it but MAN do I like the lock screen and menu play. Very nice, clean and cool. I wish I had Eclair with a MotoBlur look and feel and Hero internals. I do like Blur's social widgets. Nice!

[REQ] Panoramic Background for Leo

Are there any mods available? Is it even possible? I remember seeing it for Sense 2.1 but haven't found anything for the Leo.

Rebump. I can't seem to find one. I would really love to have this: Something like the google G1's background; It moves when you slide from tab to tab.
SPB mobile shell does this. But its a paid app. Try throttle launcher, that has it to (check windows mobiel deveopment themes and apps forum). I havent come across a mod for sense that does it.
I remember this for a few versions of Sense/ Manila/ TF3D ago. I wanna say it was TF3D 2.0 or something around there. I am not sure if those mods will work or are compatible with the newer versions of Sense 2.5
You could try that one:

Sense UI 2.5 Calendar Tab Icon ?

Does anyone know of a .cab file to modify the calendar icon on the slider of the Sense UI 2.5 interface so it shows the day of the week in addition to the number date? I thought i saw this once but didn't get it
Just think it would be nice to see a small Monday, Tuesday, etc. above the nubmer date on the calendar icon. YES, i've searched for this and cannot find anything, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
bump.....anyone?
Moved as not software release.
i guess since nobody has replied that this type of .CAB does not exist?
you know im not sure this exists but i could be wrong..........and will probably be proven right now..........
Ill have a dig around

You'd be the man if you find this. I could've swore i saw this or heard someone mention this while browsing around some site here recently, but can't for the life of me figure out where it was?
If it doesn't exist, i CHALLENGE one of the genious's here to make a cab to make it happen. It doesn't seem like it would be that hard, but then i'm no programmer and have no idea how to edit manila files, etc.
What i was gonna say tho, wot device u got and what rom?
Many of NRGZ's roms for example (and others with newer builds) have this on the calender tab already??
So would be just a case of flashing a new rom...simplez lol

TouchWiz Galaxy S launcher for g1!!

Ok ive been really looking into all the new galaxy s phones and ive fallin in love with the ui mainly the launcher, so i looked around and found a few apks for the launcher, but i guess the resolutions where all off, i pretty much gave up with out hope, but i was scanning around on here and seen a comment tht a guy was running it on his eris and i was thinking the screens were around the same size and all so i got the apk and tried it, it works perfectly scrolling is very smooth i am not sure if this will work with donut roms but i know it works perfect with froyo. i possibly just gave you guys all info you already kno but im new to xda and figured its about time to post maybe help some people out.. i also have a question where do i find the spot where i put my phone and what rom spl and all that at? like you guys have it at the bottom of every post and comment.
