thanks for making a lame reply to someone looking for an answer...The way you replied to that question made yourself seem like you don't even know the answer....
and to the OP i think there isnt a Icon Pack...you might have to Download a home/launcher like Openhome or Pandahome....

You honestly think I don't know the answer..... I don't want sound like a jerk, but...
The reason I did it that way was because the OP probably never bothered looking for "icon packs" or whatever himself first. You new users should learn to use the search button and Google before coming here and asking a very simple question, to which you yourself can answer.
Believe me I know the answer, I've made more themes and helped more people out than you and the OP combined, I just don't like/want new users to think that XDA will always give them the answer flat out, without them ever doing anything.
And yes, there is an icon pack -- you don't have to use Openhome or Pandahome. Again, this is where searching comes into play. I'll let you do it yourself, since you seem to think you know "the answer".

Im very capable of using google and the search function on this site if thats what i wanted to do. Im sorry i dont have hours to spend sifting through a 1000 websites from a google search. I figured this thread would allow people to post what they are using and some of their favorites. Nothing wrong with having a consolidated thread for specific information that im sure would benefit others as well.

If you're looking at 1000 pages (exaggerating)... you're using the wrong keywords, thus the reason for it taking so long.
Try looking around XDA in general (and not just the Evo forums) to find your answer. There are MORE than enough icon packs around here, you need to find them, download them, and modify the size of the icons to make sure they fit the Evo's resolution.
You can also you use google to find website icon packs or other icon packs, which again need to be modified and recreated to fit the Evo. You could use the 2.1 icons from the Hero forums, which again need to be modified for the Evo.
Your "icon packs" are everywhere -- all you have to do is find and modify them.

Take a guess as to how I found my answer?
I used the search button.
I know not everyone knows everything from day one (I was in the same boat) -- however searching here on XDA or Google will bring up your answer (9/10 times) -- especially with something like "icon packs". Don't tell me that someone hasn't asked the exact question in some form or another here on XDA. My point is... people need to learn to use the search function and enter the proper keyboards, doing so will result in finding what you need. Period.
By the way, I think I've been pretty civil about all this; I could have just said... "Fu***** retards" and left, you know?
You should try making a "LMGT4Y" link, you'll realize it takes 30 seconds at best.

I looked at this thread hoping to find some answers on icon packs instead find the guy getting hated on for asking the same question I wanted to...

I took it as the OP was asking for our opinions on which icon pack we like, not asking how/where he can find icon packs. If you have nothing constructive to say, why did you even bother to post here? This didn't help at all. Its just like Cancer to this site.
I prefer Gloss icon pack myself.

This one has individual apps.
I get all my icons from Iconfinder. Some on the site are purchase but the large majority are free. you can also find icon packs in many of the theme threads on XDA that are set up to match the themes people have created.

White Rapper Soundboard (AppInventor Test)

So, I signed up for AppInventor on the day it was announced and I finally got the invite 4 days ago (I didn't even know! Haha) Anyway, I decided to mess around. This app was thrown together in 10 minutes. I don't have any coding experience. I just recorded a bunch of high pitched sounds trying to say "totally gangsta" things. The fact that I could even throw THIS together gives me hope that creative people everywhere will create real apps.
If you could just download the APK and try it out, you can see a really basic app that demonstrates the functionality of AppInventor. Oh, and once again- that isn't my normal voice. LoL.

P.S. Sorry it's like 2 megs. I don't know how to make it smaller. Also, since I'm too new to post a link I kind of went around it. I figured since I'm not spamming and trying to help the community, it would be ok. If it's not okay, feel free to remove my post. I'm sorry.

hhmmm I signed up for the app as well. DO you have a link to the app?

the link I used in the post above is a link to my google docs account. all you have to do is hiot "download". put the apk on your sd card and then use astro or something to install the apk.
but, if you'd like a link to use on your phone. try this-

The EASISET way to flash splash screens

I have personally confirmed this to be working on the original and updated firmware!! So no matter what you've done to your Sensation, this should work.
All this hooking up the phone to a computer to flash a new splash screen through fastboot or packing PM85IMG.zip files with a new splash is all WAY more complicated than this needs to be. I detailed this out in another splash screen thread but it's buried in the thread and I want people to be able to have easy access to this information.
You can keep various splash screens on the phone ready to be switched as the mood strikes you when you're out and about since almost 1 click access.
Here's what you do.
Creating a new Splash Screen...
First you have to make or get new splash screens. You can get them pre made all over this forum. If you make your own, convert them to img files using these instructions.
Now that you've got fancy splash screens to play with....
Create a directory on your SD Card called "splashscreens" (Or whatever you'd like to call it). This is just a place to store your splashes.
Put all of your *.IMG splash screen files there. Just be sure to name them descriptively since you won't be able to view them in img format. So if you have a splash screen of the Joker, call the file Joker.img and the splash screen of Batman as batman.img so you know which files are which. You get the idea.
Got that part? Great. You're halfway home. And you're all set up already for the next time too!
Flashing a new Splash Screen to your phone...
Now download an app call GScript from the market. It's free. All it is is basically a terminal emulator that saves scripts so you can run them off a menu instead of typing them out each time. (Brilliant, huh?!)
Save the following line as a script. Make sure it's EXACT.
dd if=/mnt/sdcard/splashscreens/custom.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14
Be sure to check that this GScript script needs SU access. (There's a box to check)
Now run it, and it'll find that Joker.img that you renamed to custom.img in your splashscreen directory and flash it to the right place in the phone.
Want to use another image tomorrow? Just rename custom.img back to joker.img so you'll know what it is next time, rename the new image file to custom.img. Go back to GScript and click your saved splash screen flashing script and boom! New splash screen. Go you, you're more awesome than your friends!
If you type the script in right the first time, it's 100% idiot proof the next 1000 times.
Warnings...
Do NOT use this script on other devices. Another device will keep the splash screen in a different spot and you might flash your splash screen over top of something far more important. The method should work on at least most HTC devices, but the exact location will be different for most. For example it's blk16 on the MyTouch 4G.
The images for flashing still have to be properly formatted as 960x540 IMG files. You can use the other tools linked earlier in this post for that. This won't magically make any old 200x200 JPEG into an awesome splash screen.
If you botch it, it's not my fault. I literally just did this seconds ago and it works like a charm if you do it right.
And if this is still too much for you, look up BootFlash on the market. For 99 cents it apparently does everything for you. (But it's not nearly as nerdy!)

Here's a few I made to get you started.
I didn't create any of the elements in these images. I just mixed and matched existing elements I found online. (Though I did type "Who ya gonna call?" without even needing spell check!)
The embedded images are JPEG's because that's how Photobucket rolls. The attached ZIP file contains the BMP and IMG version of all 3 pictures so you can either convert them yourself or just flash them right away.

You are a little late, there is already a similar thread and bootflash pro from the market is really the best way to go to flash a new splash screen. Good work on the splash screens though!!

Thanks Skipjack, i might look at this and see if you can copy from the pc to the phone with the same method,
then add that to my batch script if it works of course

that's a little unfair, Skipjack had posted this method before but it hadn't been verified as working on this new FW, so credit to him for testing it. I am happy that there is this option and the one i have created, I am 100% for the free method though and will never use or recommend an app solution!

I've never tried that, so I'm just guessing....but I don't know why you wouldn't be able to. I think ADB gives you access to the mmc blocks. (I said I think, not I know)
If it does, this should work fine.

I figured I had just flashed the new firmware...had a fresh nandroid backup....and the FW PM58IMG file was still on the SD Card. If it screwed anything up I could just reflash the firmware again in 5 minutes and be no worse off for wear.
And yeah about the BootFlash app...it probably works great. But I don't like having apps write to the dark corners of my phone without knowing exactly how the app works. It just takes 1 thing to go wrong for the app to think it's running on a different phone and write the splash file to block 17 instead of 14 and suddenly you've got a splash screen where something more important used to be.
Plus, that app takes any image off your phone....sends it to a server somewhere and converts it to a properly sized IMG file and send it back and then flashes it. That's a lot going on....and a lot of steps where something could get botched. It probably works 99.999999999% of the time. You could probably use it for years and never have a problem. But for some people, like me who are control freaks, that's not good enough. I like knowing each step of the process and being able to see if each step works right. But that's me. If you want to try BootFlash, go for it! I'm sure it'll work fine. If you don't like giving up that kind of control, use my method. (I say 'my' loosely. I didn't invent this. I just ported it from the MyTouch 4G where other smart people created it and tested it on the Sensation.)

this really is the easiest way, i have always flashed my splash screens like this. tried a few of the tools and they are just too much work rather than just typing in the command.

I'm sure he has. And the developer might be a great programmer. It doesn't mean I'm willing to trust an app made by someone I know nothing about to write to my mmc blocks.
Even then, it's that the app is made for use with multiple devices that freaks me out. When the app gets updated, if the developer swaps the Sensation script to the MyTouch by accident and boom...you've flash to the wrong file.
For me, I wouldn't take that risk. But that's me. I'm a wuss like that.
I'm sure BootFlash works fine. This method is for people who prefer to do it themselves.

What if the server that runs that file conversion program is down?
Servers do go down. It happens.
You'll be stuck with the splash screen you have for minutes...maybe hours! Your friends will think you're a loser because you can't change your splash screen!!!! They will abandon you. You'll still have hope to meet a beautiful girl who will love and marry you....if only you introduce yourself by buying her a drink. But alas....you're $1 short of what you'd need to buy a drink so you'll never meet her and you will grow old and die alone! If only you hadn't spent that $1 on BootFlash because you didn't want to set up a simple local script.
Seriously though BootFlash is great. This is an alternative to that if you prefer to do things manually.

Yes. All GScript is is a terminal emulator clone that saves scripts.
Everything works exactly the same if you typr it into terminal emulator
But you deffinately needto su first

Great! Works like a charm! I was lazy and bought BootFlash Pro, and it didn't work. Considering the time wasted playin' in Photoshop for a while to get that awesome image, the additional nbimg step to make it work is not that much of a trouble. I used Android Tuner Free instead of Gscript, so any program that can save scripts is fine. BUMP4thegreatergood! Thank you!

NICE!!!
I just loaded the splash.img, in the attachment (i found it somwhere on the forum and converted it), by your instructions in teh guide... it works gr8.
I actualy couldn't do it with standard Terminal emulator. I did it with GScript. I had some doubts as the GScript force closes after some test sctipt runs... and when i inserted the command from the duide it also FC-ed but it loaded the Splash.img succesfully. :victory:
Thank you.

[ROMS] [WIP] ICS AOKP and CM9 Alphas Moto Atrix 2 UPDATED (7/6/12)

Notice: These builds are experimental and most likely not fully, or at all working. Proceed at your own risk.
EDITS:
7/6- changed download link up a directory
7/6- added sd card fix that can be added to a build to allow sdcard use and JRW 28's build.prop to utils folder
This is where I am going to post all my CM9 and AOKP work. Please feel free to pitch in and help out if you can. You can PM me if you want privacy, but I would rather keep most of the discussion open in this thread so that others can see.
What do we have here?
Most if not all of what I will write about here is based on ROMS for other devices that can be found here. These ROMS are not meant to be used as a "daily driver" if you will, but more to be tested and hopefully improved until they work. The hope would be to get the radio working so they could actually be used to make calls.
Versions
I'm dividing the builds up into different categories
1. Nightly- They probably won't actually be nightly, maybe 2 some day and then not 1 for a week, but they are the most cutting edge, and may not even boot. Only nightly builds currently exsist.
2. Release Candidate (RC)- a bit stabler, will work fine, but will still have problems as listed.
Changelog
7/6/12:
Initial releases of AOKP and CM9. both are based of Droid 3 and AOKP appears not to boot
Problems
Here is a list of generic problems, along with ones specific to certain builds. I'll add on to this.
Generic:
1. No radio- This is the big one, no clue how we're gonna fix it
CM9 Nightlies:
1. no sd card
2. no wifi
3. no sound
AOKP Nightlies:
Downloads
All download can be found here: http://www.androidfilehost.com/main/Motorola_ATRIX_2_Developers/lkrasner/
Bug reporting
Please report bugs in this thread and be sure to state the following
1. which version (date +nightly, RC or Stable)
2. What the problem is
3. conditions required for it to occur
4 any other important details.
Example: 7/6/12 nightly no sound only in airplane mode also causing apps to force close when trying to play sound (that is all made up)
Want to help out with fixing? Please PM me or let me know here what you think you can fix, or ask me to give you a job. Thanks!!!

Just in case...

I will look into the taboo world of the RIL.... since I know that is off limits on XDA...
I will communicate anything through PM though, I just wanted to put it in here, so others knew not to discuss this here, and that I was going to see what I can achieve on cracking the RIL.

Because it has to do with the radio, and opening it up. Modifying or talk of modifying radios, cell unlock, S-off, and hacking free cell service are all off limits on XDA. I am not 100% sure on all of it, so you might check with our mod.
I also sent you a PM too.
About the only thing I can do here is give the correct build.prop setting for CM9/AOKP to work on our phone, and that is the following:
Code:
ro.ril.hsxpa=2
ro.ril.gprsclass=12
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=28
ro.ril.hsupa.catergory=9
What I am going to do is a little more back door and "forcefull" if these setting don't work for anyone who has it loaded or is going to flash it.
right now I can't flash my A2, because I am running another bootloader/kexec type of hack to try to get my unsigned kernel to boot.
This weekend I will try and see what I can do with the actual ro.ril.so files.

Downloaded...can DB for mirrors if anyone needs. May hold off flashing myself until a little more fixing is done. Very excited to see the ball rolling now though. Great job guys...keep it up!

@lkrasner. You sir are bound and determined to get us non stock roms for this phone. Thank you for all of your efforts. I have the weekend off so i will be testing these roms over the next few days to see if i can help in any way. Thanks again.

Here is a modified build.prop that does boot with AOKP if anyone wants to take a look at it
Build.prop
for those that downloaded the link please download this again as I had the wrong build.prop, it has now been corrected !!! My apologies!!!

I really like to thank all of you awesome guys for your so hard,dedicated and superb efforts to keep A2 one of the best and that too with so many many limitations and constrains.
I really salute you guys.God bless you.Keep up the good work.

Here is a modified build.prop that does boot with AOKP if anyone wants to take a look at it
Build.prop
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I noticed a few little issues.
1) The following line is in there twice with different numbers:
Code:
persist.ril.mux.noofchannels = 8
persist.ril.mux.noofchannels=9
2) The ro.ril settings are a little different than our "known good" settings:
Code:
ro.ril.hsxpa=2
ro.ril.gprsclass=10
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=28
ro.ril.hsupa.category=9
Try changing the the ro.ril.grpsclass to 12, as in my above post.
These are just the things that so far stand out to me to begin with.
If anyone wants to give them a try and let us know....

I think I will write up a quick shell script that changes the necessary properties in build.prop so that we can do it to any build and not worry about screwing up other things by totally replacing it.
How should I go about it? sed I guess? any other ideas.

awk and sed or Perl, since Perl has the interpreters and edit functions for text already built in.
It might be best to just have the script create the correct build.prop no matter what, instead of edit it, that way we know that the correct file gets used, and not some "accidental" flub up that someone might have played with... sort of like a built in recovery so to speak. you can always back up any other versions.

but won't that be a problem with different builds? isn't the build.prop different for AOKP and CM9 and even for different ones of those possibly?
I would do Perl, but I have never used it in my life, so I would probably screw something up pretty bad, or just take forever to do it.

Rils are modified and created in other forums, so I wouldn't think it would be a problem for us.

Updated OP with download link changed to my root directory so that you can see all my folders.
I will add other things that will be useful on the utils folder.

Yes you are right.... I am going to do something that has the possibility that I might have to go rogue and change and release proprietary code in an open format, and that is what is not allowed, and I can't even discuss it here. Anyone who would like more information can PM me.
Here is a rundown on the RIL, and why it is important:
http://www.netmite.com/android/mydroid/development/pdk/docs/telephony.html
We need it to be open source, but it is not, and it is usually propritary code. If I can find an open source version we are in luck and we can compile the CM9 version and just plug it in... otherwise I need to go and hack it.

Nope, that is the place where you can get the opensource RIL files and code... that is why I already knew about it... LOL you found it though so you know what I am on to and after here.
LOL, Yeah I expect a few of them to be honest, and I am guessing that once I crack the bootloader and the RSA cipher that a true suit will come... Oh well Moto can bite it...

[APP][Beta] Notes (Material Design) <-- Testers needed!

[APP][Beta] Notes (Material Design) <-- Testers needed!!!!!!
Notes (Beta)
Google+ Community - Beta signup - Play Store ​
Had to create a new community, apparently you can't change visibility to public after it's been created as private.
Hello world! I just (beta) released my own, first Android application to Play Store!
As of now it's in beta and I need your help!
I need testers!
I have created a group/community on Google+ where everyone is free to join (although it seems I have to accept individually.. Annoying!)
There you can find links to the beta signup and the app on playstore and you need to join the community to be able to download the Beta.
The plan is to take the app out of beta as soon as possible but that requires some serious testing and without you that's not possible!
So give me all feedback, even the worst kind! Bugreports, screenshots, hugs! Everything!
You can also share your ideas and thoughts. There is also a changelog section for updates!
Anyone speaking all but Swedish and English are very welcome to help translating the app!
Soon:
- Online storage
- Widgets
- Ability to share notes (E-mail, export to textfiles etc.)
- Themes (Color palettes basically)

I just downloaded this app and it looks very nice for a beta application.
I'd like to make one suggestion however. I can already see the security question you chose to implement in the security section of the app is going to cause a lot of fuss by the general public. I can already see people being weary putting their real credit card # in because they will think you will be able to see this answer. Then they are going to put in a fake #, forget what they used, and get locked out. This results in a 1 star review.
My suggestion is to create a list of 10 or so predefined questions they can answer. Even better let them type in their own question that they can answer.

Hi. Thank you for your time!
This has crossed my mind and had me thinking, but then I remembered the 4 last digits are the only ones that show (most of the times I can remember, anyhow) if you add a creditcard to a online site, for example. Plus its basically impossible to forget! So I thought this would make no difference, but I'm afraid you're right.
Other security questions will be in the next update (or after that one), because this is a very big deal. And ofcourse the ? button will be removed, its only for developer/beta purpose.
Thank you for pointing this out!

A bit weird on my phone
Sent from my GT-I8150 using XDA Free mobile app

its awesome but also on my device the floating button is like @handgun50 screenshoot, on my tablet floating button is just black weird looking and just white plus no pink color, when i go to settings and try change password whatever i do it says wrong password, i wish to see transparent status bar also or just like original material design 500 in app and 700 for status bar

This was fixed in the latest update. Try updating the app from Play Store and see if you still have this problem. Thank you both.

I am glad it's in active development

no problems now! GREAT!! what about the status bar? and what is offline mode? its say always to me currnetly in offline mode and cant switch , is that means it will have sync like google keep ?

Hi and thanks for trying out my application.
The Statusbar
It cannot be colored as in android L because you cannot mix android L with previous versions of android since its the developer preview (it's just that, a preview). So the only way to do this (for now) is by replicating the design and other effects to make them work in previous android versions where the coloring of statusbar obviously cannot be done.
I could however, make a separate app only for android L but imagine having to work with two apps at once.. Alone.
When they release the full thing this will be possible in the same app by declaring the sdk to L (or whatever it will be called).
Offline Mode
The offline mode is for when I have an online database to keep the notes. As of now its only local. When this is ready, you will be able to choose whether you want to keep your notes online or local.
Thank you.

And I'm glad you like it!

Just a couple of things:
a) Is there no longer a beta community? I go to G+ Community and then Beta signup, but all I see is:
Sorry – nothing to see here.
There may be several reasons:
The app that you’re looking for doesn't exist
or
the app developer is not currently running a test
or
you are not eligible to participate in the testing programme.
If you received the link to this page from someone, we recommend that you contact them for more information.

b) I have not installed it yet ... will do it soon, but in the meantime, on the screenshots, I see those label kind of things (Beta, Incredible, Similey, etc...) what are they? I mean, I would love to have either folders or "labels" as Gmail does so that I can group notes and then would like to have a lock/unlock feature for each group/folder/label.
c) I would also think it would be nice if the online feature allowed th user to save the notes to ones own Gmail or Google Drive account or even maybe dropbox or box.
Design looks nice.
Off to download, but will look at it only tomorrow.
Cheers!

its can be done look on lg g3 kk stock when you enter any app status bar change color, and also with an xposed module can be done that on rom but i wont use xposed (art reason), for example look on app "pushbullet" awesome transparanecy on statusbar and navigation bar am just suggesting so you will do what you like

The google+ community should be working as its supposed to. For me both links work fine. Have you joined the community before you try to join the beta?
These are tags. The tags are like categories. I am working on a way to sort these by tags. In the meantime all they do is to show you what kind of note it is.
To be able to share the note is one of my primary goals. You should be able to save to a local textfile, send by email and save to drive. I have successfully added a file in drive with the name of the title but the part where the content fills the file is very hard.
Thank you for trying out my app and thank you for f
The feedback. Much appreciated.

Gorgeous! Really good job here, here are some recommendations:
1/ Can you implement a feature, where I can restore my notes from Google Keep?
2/ Archiving notes, so only the important ones are visible
3/ Purple colored "Title" is burning my eyes!

Thank you for trying my app. And thanks for the kind words.
I don't know how Keep works (I mean behind the scenes) so that might be difficult. Worth looking into though since alot of people are using Keep. Great tip.
Yes this will be implemented. You will be able to swipe away notes later on. This follows android guidelines and its very useful.
Oh, really? Sorry to hear that it's the color that burns your eyes or the actual little text? Its probably not needed since the inputfield has a hint saying 'Title'. Will look into it

I will remove it and see if it still looks good. It gives the top part some color though. Might look boring without it, but I will try.
