Don't want the hexagon style start menu! How to change this?

I know it's in the cpr files, but when i tried to change them, the start menu didn't work at all. I want 4 icons besides each other and 4 colums. It should be possible, but I don't know how.

Something like this?

Thanks, but this isn't what I'm searching for as this is a program which has to be opened each time and slows the phone. Despite this I'd like to have 4 columns, not 5.

This might be what you are looking for http://www.wmskins.com/thumbnails.php?album=35

I also would love this, will make a request over there. They don't have it exactly, just want (if I am reading the posts correctly) 4 icons across by however many down in a square grid, not honeycomb. Just looks silly esp. now don't have the honeycomb grid behind to give it structure.

Move Slider to the bottom of the window?

Hey guys, is there a cab to move the lock screen to the bottom of the screen instead of the top?
I tried to install swipe to unlock, but when i unlocked it with this app, it went back to the lock screen.
So i was wondering of there was a stand alone cab for this?
Thanks guys

just tried this one and it looks and works good

Working great on my HD2. Cheers

Hi, very nice, but is there a slider which does not work only the horizontal way?
I think it would be a lot better if the slider was some sort of an arc which follows the natural movement of the right (or left) hands thumb!?
Is there something available?

Great app!
Works fine with my HTC HD2.
Thanks a lot, finally I can answer my phone onehanded!

thanks! i've tried and it works so far! many thanks!

Its working on my HD2 (Singapore SingTel set)... Thanks!!!

I'm not using swipe to unlock, is there a version where I can just get the lock button to the bottom but standby button retains locking functionality?
Edit: Ignore me, Thought I couldn't lock anymore. =p

I also got some Lockscreen at the Bottom with a cab for the original one.

AFAIK, if it's a cab, it can be uninstalled. I installed the Center slider cab. The other one seems to be to revert back tot he original Leo. If uninstalling doesn't fix things, install that original cab.

setting ringtone from storage card
y is it i cant set a file i have saved in my storage card as a ringtone.....ring tones can only b set to the default tones except u save the file in the phones memory and that slows down the phones processor....plssss is there any smart person that canhelp me with this

LOL!!!
No it don't mate. It doesn't do that at all. Files do not slow down "the phones processor"
Anyway, save them in the "my documents" folder on the storage card. That should work. If it don't, save them on the phone in "my documents". It REALLY doesn't have a detrimental effect on the phone's performance at all.

Just installed the .cab, but nothing happens? Are you ameant to be doing anything else to change it?
Edit: Seems like I needed to restart it, as it worked when I turned it back on. Didn't like it so reinstalled the orginal one.

File explorer will not do landscape

I have no clue why but file explorer will no longer do landscape (rotate). I have installed new roms since however still won't work. anyone know why this is?
thanks

It's not meant to.
You can use BsB Tweaks to set file explorer to work with auto rotate, or try PLToggle in my sig - it gives rotation with a long-hold of the call button, so it's only when you want it.

lol. I must have been spoiled by custom roms from the get go since they always had it. Please excuse my ignorance!
Thanks for the help.

Hi,
You can enable File Explorer autorotate by changing the 'AutoRotation' value from 0 to 1 here...
HKCU/Software/HTC/GSensor
Soft reset obviously.
PS This also provides autorotation in Excel Mobile and some other applications too. It should work in Word but doesn't appear to.

Try changeScreen. Works reliably for me, better than BSB.

Anyone like this bootscreen////anyone willing and able to port it?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=648555
Looks pretty epic if I say so myself. I dont even care about the ending animaions, but the award bios bootup is pure winz.

this should be under the theming section

If you just want it as a bootscreen, I'll make a zip. Gimmie a few.

I lied. I can't get it to work...Could be cause I need sleep. Maybe someone else can or I'll try again later.

I couldnt decide where to post this...maybe since I was tired because of finals. But, your right and it should have been obvious that this belonged in themes vs here. I went ahead and reported this, so maybe a mod will move it.

Ohh
Woww, that would be nice if we can get that to work on the Hero

I actually tried them out a few days ago, I'm not the best w/ graphics, but all someone has to do it resize the images and it will work. runs fine, just too big.

It's made for 2.1 roms. Follow the instructions in the thread it should just work. The guy says it was pulled from villain Rom which is a gsm hero Rom. If you're already running a 2.1 Rom and have problems rename the zip bootanimation.zip and copy it to /system/media using root explorer or push it through adb and reboot.

EDIT:
Got it working it's attached.
Push the GIF to /system/media/bootscreen/
I think I need to mess with the lenght still its begins to loop again.
Not sure hwo to fix that.
But I think that is what the Part 1 folder is for.
I renamed it dancing.gif before I pushed it so I wouldn't ahve to mess with the XML file, but you guys do what you will with it.
Works fine on my phone other than the Fresh boot music doesn't match and it begins to loop a second time LOL.

Kcarpenter said:
I looked at it and maybe I don't know enough about the boot screens, but I thought our Boot Images where animated GIFs. The zip he has here is a series of PNG's. I would be more than happy to play with it if someone can confirm this is how 2.1 boot screens work.

they work the same way, this is just another way to do it. If there is no /system/media/bootscreen folder, it defaults to using the bootanimation.zip
either way works.
I looked for the villain rom one, couldn't find it.

I can't make an update zip I am on my work PC. Probably get yelled at in a few for runing Gimp instead of PS. They like to spy. LOL

i'm making an update zip. hopefully it works.
edit. ok i have all pngs resized to 320x480 now trying to animate. 90+ images surprised not more really.

Moved to theming as this is not related to rom development.

Did you resize one by one? Gimp lets you open them all as layers and then resize all of them at once.

ok my pc is sucking it up. i have the 90 some individual images resized and everytime i go to save it photoshop just closes out so i have yet to make the gif.

no i made an action in photoshop and resized them all. i'm having problems trying to make the animation.

here's the right one
the first one doesn't loop, just reload or right click and view image
edit: see next page for download

Sooo 90 images is a little much for PS to handle at once. I am not infront of mine right now BUT there should be an Import as Layers options some where. Gimp is "Open as Layers". When you take all 90 images in as layers each layer is a new frame of the animation.
Once they are all in one gif, then resize the whole gif instead of all of them individually. This will take the strain off PS.
Then on mine, the animation needed to be brought out a little bit longer.
You can either do this or just take my gif I posted a few posts above. It needs the timing played with though.
I have a feeling that even when it is set to Not Loop, the boot screen will loop it regardless. I distinctly remember telling it not to loop but it did any way. That or GIMP is jacked up.

[MODIFICATION] add to Blacklist from Call Log in CM-5.0.8/CM6.0.0RC1/RC2

I'm not an Android or Java guru, so I'm sure there's probably a better way to do this, but it works...
This is an update.zip which has a modified Phone.apk and Contacts.apk in order to allow the user to add an unknown number in the call log to the Blacklist.
As usual with this stuff make a backup first.
And of course I take no responsibility for anything.
For CM-5.0.8
BlacklistFromCallLog-eclair-signed.zip
For CM-6.0.0RC1
BlacklistFromCallLog-signed.zip
with working accept/decline sliders
BlacklistFromCallLog-slide-signed.zip
For CM-6.0.0RC2
BlacklistFromCallLog-6.0.0rc2-signed.zip
and the diff against cm-6.0.0rc1

You don't need the diff. It's just if you want to compile it yourself or see the source code.

Oh, ok, thanks for the MOD

Thanks for this, I've been wanting exactly this for a while now-it only makes sense. I hope cyan or other devs take note of this and incorporate it into their roms, to keep up with newer releases of the phone/contacts.apk's that they use.

Sorry if this is a little off topic but i figured you could take a look at it since you're already poking around... but does anybody notice that the blacklist clears itself after each reboot? its a little frustrating readding the numbers all the time

I don't have this problem on my g1 or slide.

I pulled the links. Apparently it breaks the ability to answer the phone
I'll look at at when I get home from work.

cant wait for update :fingers crossed:

File has been removed from the server....
Can you please re-upload this file or attach it to the OP?
Thanks
Bert

I finally got around to looking at it. Apparently the problem was not with my changes, but somewhere in my build environment.
Essentially whether I build the phone app with or without the changes, I am losing the onscreen answer/decline sliders. Gonna have to look into that because I am using a slide which lacks the hardware answer button rendering my phone app unusable to me.
So since it does actually work, Here is the new diff. It is essentially the same but with a few code cleanups. I am going to hold off on posting the apk's however until i figure out why i'm losing the onscreen sliders. If anyone knows, please let me know.
