[Q] Launcher like NXE?

Does anyone know of a home screen launcher that looks like (or can look like) the NXE (New Xbox experience) dashboard? I would swear on a stack of bibles that I saw one on a youtube video of an android phone.

No one?

There's nothing like you want, at the moment. But, perhaps you must consider
this when they have a final version in the market.

thats not really like the Xbox dashboard, but that does look very promising.

Thanks for responding. It's such a simple and neat interface compared to "screen full of icons", I'm surprised no one is trying to make it happen.

What about the XMB(XrossMediaBar) from ps3? Any launcher like that?

nexus s live wallpaper

anyone know where i can get the original nexus s live wallpaper the one that comes on the nexus s where the effects look like they are 3d.

Maybe try asking in the Nexus S subforum?

The real deal. Use it myself and it looks amazing. There's also a blacked out version (no background, looks amazing on the superamoled screen) somewhere on xda if you search for it.

Thanks for the link app is great

How did you get it on your device? It will not push to it from the market. I am running CM7.

use a sideloader.

I'm rocking the blacked out version and I love it. Makes me feel better about running a live wallpaper since it's mostly black.
If you're able to install from untrusted sources then you just launch the .apk and it installs fine.

I hate bumping such an old thread, but can someone post the apk of this? I can't download it and it's the only REAL version I've found that isn't just the nexus one's with a replaced background.

use that link you quoted to have the android market push install it to your phone.

It won't install, thanks for the help.

Thunderbolt apps htcconnectedmedia.apk and htcdlnamiddlelayer.apk

My buddy got a HTC Thunderbolt and was showing off its ability to stream video to the TV via windows media center using this connected media app.. he stated it also used the dlna to connect as well. Any chance these can work on the Evo?

I haven't tried it with these apps but I believe this feature is already available on the EVO via a similar app called iMediaShare Premium.
http://www.appbrain.com/app/imediashare-premium/com.bianor.amspremium
[EDIT]
I just tried to install these apps on my EVO running CM7 RC4 and it won't let me install them. I then tried to use root explorer and placed these apps under system/app folder and did a reboot. Once it rebooted, I tried opening up the app(s), it just opens and closes up again. I think they might be something going on with the lib files or whatever. Maybe someone can try them under a sense rom.

I believe those very apps are on warmZ and mikZ roms.

No dice on sprint lovers

Do they have the libs?
You shouldn't be able to install via root explorer I believe you have to push.

They come with and work on mikz

Thanks for your replies and info. I ran WarmZ and MikZ both and never even noticed this app on there. So I guess what I am wondering is if they can work on the Evo, what do I need to obtain from my friends Thunderbolt to make them work on a "Non Z" ROM? Or is it even possible for them to work on a standard Sense 1.0 ROM?
@mazdaraider23 Thanks for the recommendation of imediashare.. pretty cool program, but I'd still like to try and get this Connected Media working.

So if I could talk one of the Devs into including these apps with a Sense 1.0 / AOSP ROM they could cook in into it and it would work that way?

My recommendation would be if you're going to see about a Dev including these apps in a rom is go and find Virus and PM him about how to get these apps up and running. If they do require to be added on to a specific rom then he would able to tell you. The guy is very knowledgeable in this kind of stuff! Stop wasting your time talking to random people including myself.......GOOD LUCK bro!

Here's the URL for Virus' profile http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=2098136

Try virus inspire 4g port or bos inspired i've seen that app on both of those roms for sure
sent from a EVOlved device modded by the Borg.

Since it's an HTC app, it most likely requires the HTC/Sense framework. That means it would be a no-go on most AOSP ROMs because they don't include that framework.
OTOH, if it only required specific libs, you could possibly work it into an AOSP ROM.

I have PM'd Mik and Virus to see if its possible to get an installable package made for the app but have not heard back yet.

It looks like that was for getting Hulu Plus to work when the Sensation wasn't officially supported by the app yet.
I'm asking is it possible to watch videos on Hulu.com on the Sensation, ie via the browser, not the app?

Lol. Shouoda read a lil bit closer. Maybe set browser to view site as desktop if that doesnt work then idk. My bad
HTC Pyramid 4G

that help me

Doh, before loading any video, it says:
"Unfortunately Hulu is not supported on your platform."
This is with Dolphin browser with Desktop User Agent.
Has anyone figured out a way to watch Hulu on a Sensation (without the app)?

i wish let me know if you found away

Doh

Which brings another question to the table, why doesnt changing the user agent in browsers actually fool websites, and is there a way around it?

It does sometimes.
I think some websites look at the user agent and that's it.
While others will look at the browser and OS you're using. So if you're on "Desktop" user agent, but have an Android browser and running the Android OS, it's obvious you're not on a desktop.
I think it depends on the website, and how thoroughly they check.

Chameleon Launcher for All

I don't personally agree that app's currently free in the App Store in "BETA" should be locked to specific users. IF you want the BEST product, you should let as many people test it as possible.
So here you go, Chameleon Launcher for EVERYONE
ROOT REQUIRED
Install Chameleon Launcher Beta via the Play Store.
Run Chameleon Activator, and click Generate
Launch Chameleon Launcher and enjoy updates via app store
Enjoy

As far as I know, there were only a few widget's. I have no access to the official binary(unpatched) but all that was changed was a single byte in the entire app.
Grep'ing the widget catalog smali shows nothing about facebook(checking facebook, fbook, face, book, etc as terms).

It's a beta, I didn't write it, just felt more people should be able to test it. Hopefully the developers will watch the feedback here as well so they know too.

I believe it is not allowed to be posted in such a manner on the Play Store, so the developer is wrong to put it up as a selective beta.

My apologies, I originally signed it with cm9 platform keys which don't allow you to install it(you would have to copy into system/app)

When do you get the force close? log cat?
I've only personally tested on Moto Xoom w/ OTA JB, and my Galaxy Note(CM9).
Some clipping occurs on the Note, and on the Xoom I get force closes with the widgets if I add/remove them certain ways.

It works awesome on my htc one x! But looks like its created for tablets

working very well on my touchpad
but i think its not fully release . where is other widgets ?

Yeah I installed it on my One X too lol. It looks nice, some things dont scale too well (because its made for tablets), and the lack of widgets brought me back to Nova.
