First off am I the only one that wishes the original opengl would stick? Performance was alot better for that one (especially for the nexus wallpaper). Is getting the performance of the original live wallpaper we had and the sticking of the new patch possible? Right now that is the only problem stopping my phone from being the sex.
EDIT: Problem seems to happen when another widget is updated. Its not perfectly smooth, but not bad, but when a widget updates it really slows down the wallpaper to a noticeable halt. I doubt im the first to notice this, but for anyone else that really wants nexus wallpaper, having less widgets on your main page seems to help.
I moved the news+weather widget you see below to another page and it seems to jitter less.
I agree. Losing the performance from the new OpenGL isn't worth having LWP's. They might have a fix for this when Toast's Awesome Sauce ROM is complete.

Ive wanted them ever since i saw them and i think its pretty awesome
that we can run them @ all on a phone that has half the horsepower
as their intended to run on. be happy you have the option. If you like
them i dont really exp all this slowdown everyone is crying about now
that they work, and its not like a bounty hunting sprint dealer is going to
hunt you down and put them in your phone.........so the choice is yours
but no sense in being anything other than greatful for what we have atm
unless you have something to help us improve the issue as it stands.
Maybe you could try to solve the issue for us rather than wasting your time
posting about waiting for the devs who do for free to come up with the
next great fix.Good Luck with your waiting.....Ill be busy asking questions
and doing research to find answers and fixes to my issues. And Yes if i wasnt
happy with them so far thats what id be doing but i got my victory about
1 week ago when i stumbled across someone in another forum with the
patch for them to stick on another phone. My goal was getting them to
stick....and im very happy with what i have now. With that ability we
can now have FULL FUNCTION roms, which we couldnt do before.

Yeah I disagree with "there is no point in having them if it is slower".......the patch works pretty dam well with most wallpapers its just the peski nexus being alittle to slow to be usable for me. MagnusRagnarok my OP was not an attack on you at all. I am extremely thankful for what you have done, and hope you have not taken my post that way. I am just trying to see if more people feel the same way as me. For me getting the nexus one wallpaper running alittle bit better would get me closer to completing my phone.
Ill bump since I edited my first post. Hopefully someone finds it helpful.

Hey guys, I know a lot of us have been dying to get the nexus wallpaper working without having to do the opengl fix to make wallpapers stick, seeing as it made the wallpaper ran really choppy. I found a way to get it to stick, run smooth, and not have to change the opengl. I used the update zip posted by emerica6541 and it stuck right on and have ran smooth ever since. Granted he did modify the wallpaper so the lights are smaller, but I think it looks better that way on our heroes due to the smaller screen. It has survived multiple reboots, and over 30 mins of sleep time. I am running darch's legend rom though, so I'm not sure if this will work for damage's or flipz's roms, but its worth a shot.

Thank you very much for the post. I have tried flashing that before and it did not seem to work (this is on a fresh build). Ill try again, if not maybe a kind soul could look at it and see how to port onto fresh/damage build.
This is the point of the thread, not to shoot down other's hard work but to improve on it....I think thats what xda is about.

Just a note though, when you first set the wallpaper, your phone will freeze for a min, then it'll take you to the bootscreen. Once it reloads, you should be good to go.

I had it on my sd. Sadly it does not seem to make any difference. It is smooth enough (alittle bit jittery but not too bad) but once a widget updates it stops just like the other version of nexus wallpaper.

Hmm, that's odd. Are you running the new opengl fix to get the other wallpapers to stick? Because I am still running the old opengl that came standard on darch's Rom.

Oh no, i am running the new openGL. I will try the old one thanks! Should have read your original post better.
One thing that is weird is that the LWP stick with the old openGL if its plugged into the computer. Does the phone not sleep if its plugged into a computer?

Well your right, so I used the old openGL and performance was alot better, BUT it did not stick. Is it possible your phone is not sleeping?
I very rarely post, I'm just here for ROMs and apps and what not but I thought I would post this. http://www.digitalaria.com/
They have a creative UI called FX UI for Android and I have no clue if its ever been released but with MIUI out there now, I'm curious if this will ever see the light of day. Also here's the YouTube video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sr7x7zDYRzI
And if this has already been post I apologize...and I just realized I linked the wrong YouTube video.
Thread moved to Themes/Apps. Nice find, though for me, the UI looks a bit too cumbersome. This may be useful for others though!
It's pretty good looking, but it seems like TAT Home, a really good UI that will never be published.
Always good to have another UI. Looks intersting...but might be just too much for me.
The picture widget is total WIN!! all I can say about it... Who's porting it? Lmao
When is a port coming out???

I didn't mean to be so blunt (was drinking when I posted)... but I'm a noob and I can tell just by looking at the video that this would take a ton of work from the ground up... This has got to be highly entangled with framework....
this and TAT, why are they just showboating?!? They do look great tho, wonder how the battery holds up with em
first-timer and just rooted mytouch 4g. Took me whole month to do some researching and blah. Now, I'm getting there but still....hard. i give you example why. You see, the most of it required for everyone to watch youtube how to make it work but it is sucks because I am DEAF and in youtube giving instructions how to do it, and it does'nt come with CC(closed captions). Basically i am just watching video and have no idea what it saying. after many attempts and back to factory stock. Now, for last few days no problem and i am currently run FR-Sense-Faux with Royal Glacier. And its still seems no changes.
What I'm looking for is simple, speedy, eye catching icons with theme and easy to handle.
here i am thinking i am crazy to ask for....help
need to remember please don't recommend me to watch youtube unless it's including CC(closed captions)
thanks

One thing I always make sure that I do is to make a nandroid backup of my phone from the recovery boot menu before flashing any new roms. Believe me, you'll learn to love that feature.
As far as the look and feel of the phone, you can always try different homes. I use Launcher Pro which has all kinds of neat little page transitions, a nice app drawer and seems to be customizable beyond just the dock backgrounds and icons.
I am looking for a music player with a good graphical equalizer. I have yet to find one that works without flaws...
(Running MIUI ROM)
MIUI stock music player:
Sounds good, equalizer is satisfactory, but you can't tell it what folder to pull music from. It just reads the whole phone. It has a setting that you specify minimum file size for, but that's crap. Should be able to just tell it where to find music and only load that music... It also skips/cuts off etc A LOT!
PlayerPro:
This player has a really crappy equalizer. The only positive I can think of about this app is the ability to use SRS enhancement in HTC phones that have it. This one skips/cuts out music more than any other app I have tried. No matter what happens, screen turns off, like 5-20 rapid cutouts. Quality of playback is poor. Accessing certain features are a pain and needs to be able to be accessed from Menu button while in the player, not just the main screen. But the cutouts for anything happening to the phone, browsing for the next song, volume up/down. Minimizing, screen on off. Huge/a lot of cutouts in playback.
PowerAMP:
This was probably one of the better apps. Great equalizer, very direct navigation to whatever you need. But this player also suffers from the cutouts when locking/unlocking or interacting with the phone. This app does have that Buffer setting, but even set to huge (725ms) it still suffers from these cutouts. And the update that came out today.. well that just screwed it up even more...
UberMusic:
Smooth, looks pretty, can tell it's a complete rip from Zune so I know how to navigate it at least. Cutouts while navigating the phone weren't nearly as bad, or didn't happen. The problem with this app is that it doens't have an equalizer. I googled, and found out that Fede (many may know him from that scam app LPP) promised to implement an equalizer. That same dev also promised a re-write of LPP be the end of 2010 and look where LPP is at.. completely abandoned for this music app. With that history I won't buy his music app until the equalizer is implemented. But based on what he's shown with LPP I don't see that happening for 932750923 years.
WinAmp:
Loved it on my computers since middle school... But for the phone, the cut-outs are almost as bad as PlayerPro, and it also has a pretty crappy equalizer.
Anybody else know of a good/smooth music app, with no cutouts in music playback and a good equalizer?
Thanks!

have you tried any of those one a Non MIUI rom? Reason I ask is that there is APP issues with any and all CM based roms including MIUI. Main reasin I ask is I do not have this problem with any of the music apps you mentioned, short of the MIUI as I have never used it and never will.
I only used LeeDroid prior to flashing MIUI and the stock (Sense) player did everything I needed it to without problems.
I guess it's possible this is a MIUI problem. Such a shame... smoothest/fastest and most customizeable ROM I've ever had on a phone.

I use powerAMP and have used prolly every rom made for the inspire. With a few exceptions. I don't have your issues. ./shrug
As for Your Miui claim, You have only used Leedriod and Miui. You may want to check out a few other roms. You claim fastest smoothest and have only tried two things.
Thats alot like claiming MCdonalds is the best berger when you have only tried MCdonalds and Burgerking.
Truthfully there are alot of burgers out there and you would be "missing" out.
FYI MIUI is not the fastest/smoothest.....lol
I used many ROMs on other devices. Tried MIUI back then and it was also the smoothest for me there, just couldn't deal with the facebook issues, the camera issues, the GPS issues etc etc it had at the time.
Can you recommend another ROM that's as small and fast/smooth as MIUI?
Try Absolution. I too am an advocate for miui but flashed about 3 weeks ago and haven't gone back!!!

If the reason really is due to MIUI being based on CM7, then I think this ROM would give me the same result, no?
I'm willing to give it a shot this weekend though. I don't see any screen shots in the thread for the ROM though, (and no place holders like I get from blocked content [at work, ha ha] like other pictures) could you post an SS of the notification pull down? I've grown to really like the 2 page system on MIUI...

I am currently using whats in my sig. And I don't have the issues you are having. With the music player. (power Amp)
Its also better, IMHO then MIUI. Its got just as many if not more customization options and you don't have to look at an IPHONE want-to-be interface.
I Also found Gingerbeast to be great and then Ninja. Granted I only like AOSP roms for the most part.
I have never had GPS or Facebook issues on any rom I have used. Can't say about the camera apps as I am not into pictures. Don't use it at all.
Thanks tweaked.
So music playback is smooth/continues even when you lock/unlock or launch an app etc?
And can you tell me if the notification pulldown has the 2nd page for toggles?
Yea, I really did not like the iPhone wannabe launcher either, but I use an alternative launcher...

Sir, Download and flash Absolution. You will be amazed.
The pull down does not have the 2nd page for toggles. But you can add as many toggles as you like to the top.
I just tested it and it does not Glitch when I lock and unlock the phone. Even on Bluetooth.
All this tho and I bet the issue isn't the rom you are using. You prolly just need a full reset. I have found that sometimes I just have to Completely Wipe the phone and then install from scratch to get rid of little annoyances that pop up. I used Miui for about 2 weeks and never noticed what you are experiencing.

I will give Absolution a shot this weekend. But as for a bad flash, I don't think the ONLY people that responded to my comment agreeing that there is a problem would also have a bad flash. Not one person said they didn't experience this issue. Must be just a MIUI thing.

Well, MIUI is based on CM7; I'm having this exact problem with CM7 (latest build). As a matter of fact, I've always had this issue, and it's very annoying. I also have a problem with the sound cutting to mono when listening on a headset, and it's highly irritating, because the only way to fix it is to unplug and replug the headphones.
I wonder if a full clean wipe will fix this. I'm really thinking about giving it a shot, but the issue is that I'm going to be stuck with one of two options: either a Sense ROM or a CM7 ROM. I really love CM7, and have no other issues with it than this, so I'm wondering if it is indeed worth it to switch to a Sense based ROM.
I know I won't be going back to sense.
Think I'll just gu buy an MP3 player if it comes down to that.
This is a project to mix and port LG Spectrum + LG Nitro HD ROM to our LG O3D.I haven't got myself very far still, just started to play with it yesterday.As you guys can see, there is a lot of work to do and I need help. It is still buggy slow, but Launcher rolls much smoother than our LGHome one. The ROM is mixed with my V0.2 right now, but the idea is to use as much as possible from the other devices framework.
If you want to help, just if you really want to help, send me a PM and I will send you a link about my progress.
This is how it looks like:

To do list:
-Make new LGHome2.apk to load the app drawer.
-Make new LGHome2.apk to load widgets.
-I guess there is a USB Host drivers in the system dump.Have to investigate it and make get it to work on O3D
-Keep porting the rest of the system to our O3D
Reserved to me 2.
well...its looks really cool
best of luck on this....i hope you manage to work it out
thanx again for your continuous hard work man
looks promising,
It looks very good actually. Minimal lag there IA what I saw. And I noticed the important essentials are working, phone, wick. Wasn't able to obviously see if you got the GPS or data to work or even Bluetooth but definitely seems very promising my friend. Really good job bro.

sorry for my bad english
Updated the first page with a new video + 2nd post with a small to do list for those who want to help.
I think this is the way to go, as you guys can see it is way smoother than our launcher
Great work man..I can see much difference and more smoothness in this launcher..u think it's gonna be OK to use at the end??wish it would..
still can't downloaded?
Got it working nice, but FC started again.

When I get at least app drawer to load the app list. It is crazy how the launcher still very smooth even with the 7 screens totally full with widgets. Cant understand why LG havent released an small OTA update just with this new Launcher to us.
We can't understand a lot of LG's doing... Thank god we have a few devs onboard. Maybe LG should try to buy some devs too. Good luck with the launcher.

great work dear ThiaiZ..
i've a suggestion.. give it some animations.. when opening or closing windows or moving from one to another.. opening and closing launcher menu or unlocking animations.. it would be
perfect if it take pace!
ThiaiZ, What news about your disk? And whether there will be in him something new except the house screen. I am the admirer of your disks, but last 2.5 very astable in comparison with yours 2.4 (but there video record not so good) I am sorry for my English, I write from the translator
Nice to hear something about USB Host. Hopefully it work
