Hello All,
I am not de developer of this app, but I find it very usefull and wanted to share it. Its called SpareParts and people that have had previous android phones are probably familiar with it.
However, I never found it in any Xperia X10 rom, and everytime I tried to install one from the internet, it just wouldn't work, or didn't include some of the most interesting settings of this app.
Basically SpareParts is a system tweaker, and lets you change a variety of settings which makes it a very handy tool.
I recently found one which included Compcache and CPU settings that worked fine on my X10.
For those who don't know, enabling compcache allows android to compress RAM and results in overall better performance.
It also has working CPU settings (As you may know, most CPU control apps available are unreliable with the X10).
In my case, I used to have ramdom reboot problems , specially when I was heavy using the phone (ie, playing asphalt and streaming music at the same time) and after enabling compache with this app the issue went away.
Also, it allows you to lower the CPU speed without affecting the phone performance too much, so it definitively helps to save a lot of battery.
Anyone willing in to give it a try, here is the link, i suggest setting Swapines to 15 after enabling compache:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7864538/SpareParts-4.apk
The phone seems to be more smooth, but may be a placebo effect.
Please give it a try and share your results.
BTW I am using CM 6.1.1 ROM Tweaked and with extras with custom Sysctl settings posted in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=929448
PS.
You may also want to try changing the animation speed to fast (under original spareparts settings). The phone will feel a lot faster

Hmmm interesting, but I can't seem to use it to turn off some of the status bar stuff.

Some of the settings will not work. Maybe a dev can mod the app and just leave the working settings. This version of the app was modded for another device.
I'm on wolfbreak's cm v 4.4 and this definitely made the phone.snappier...
I had to uninstall the original spare parts before installing this one or the compcache setting wouldn't stay after a reboot.
Thanks for this!
would not be fully functional since we are not allowed custom kernals
Sweet!
Thank you! This does have a lot more capabilities than the regular spare parts!!! Will tweek it and give feed back!!!
Best regards,
Chris

I see you are using 2.1 ROM. I am not sure if it will work in 2.1. I only tested it in 2.2. However, some of the settings are specific for the device this app was originally made for so they won't work for us (ie the status bar tweaks).

If you want to change the status bar options you can use CM settings.
Hey, I just installed this version of spare parts and now my phone doesnt go to sleep when I press the power button. I have reverted back to original compache settings and default 60 swapines, rebooted and uninstalled. Please help

This app is no longer being updated and may cause issues on newer versions of Android. Use at your own risk!
Description
Font Changer allows you to change the font on your Android device. Some (most likely people from the HTC Desire forum section) may be familiar with an older version which required flashing an update, however these two versions don't require it (check the requirements section for more).
Basically you can put your TTF fonts in /sdcard/.fontchanger/ (location can be changed in the settings) and then you can apply a font once they have been found by the application (inside Font Changer there are more detailed instructions on how to do this). You can also set the fonts individually using the advanced mode. It works just by copying the selected font to the system partition and overwriting the current font. Backup is automatic, although occasionally it breaks resulting in the need to fix the fonts manually or with an update (usually the cause of messing with the fonts alongside with Font Changer).
Font Changer used to only have a paid version for the past few months, but with the new Market changes I have decided to add a free version. While most cancellations happen within a few minutes after purchase, not all do... and 15 minutes is just too short! Plus some people are not in a country where they are allowed to buy paid apps. Anyway, that's my reasoning.
The application should be removed from its settings to restore the default fonts and density. More information can be found on its Market page and inside the application.
Requirements
root
system write access (aka NAND unlock or S-OFF)
busybox
custom recovery (not a requirement per-se, but highly recommended in case something goes wrong)
Reviews
DroidDog
Coming Features
Fix up setting custom website for preview
Set dark/white theme
Rework UI for the font picker
Rework UI for the density changer
Need some icons for the Basic/Advanced tabs
Add more fonts to be replaced in Basic mode
Check font integrity
Shake for a random font
Really thanks for share.
Can't u upload the free .apk here? My camera doesn't work so i cant scan the QRCode. Would be nice
Thanks!

OK, done. Although if your signature is correct and you have a GT540, Font Changer doesn't have support for it yet as I need some information to identify the device (the person with a GT540 who was helping me has gone somewhat quiet and I haven't managed to finish it without his input).

1. There are multiple rooting methods for the GT540, and some of them work with Font Changer and others don't. I'm afraid I don't have any specific information on this. If 1 works, then check out 2.
2. The GT540 uses different fonts than the default Android ones. I know which ones and already have the code in the application to make it work, however all I need is to identify the device for which I require someone with a GT540 willing to help.
Anyway, feel free to give it a try and see what will happen.
Tried right now, works well. Looks **** cause of fail font.
Some informations for you: Got 2.2.1 based on CyanogenMod, Recovery 2.5.0.5.
Yeah. Thank you!

OK, your one works because you have CM which uses default Android fonts
You're welcome.
Version 1.7.1.3 has been released, per-user request.
It is now possible to specify in the settings whether the regular font should be used to replace the clock, or whether the default clock font should be used. Some ROMs make use of the clock font, others don't, so the option may not have an effect for everyone.
Doesn't work for me on rooted GT540 with stock Android 2.1 update. I am willing to help with any testing.
I've ben using this app for a while (paid version) and it works very well.
Seems to work on the HTC Vision /G2/Desire Z. Thanks a lot! (Got the paid version to support development)

Hi there. It doesn't work as in when you set the font it does nothing?
If that's what happens then you could try running the app which I attached in this post and send the report which it generates by GMail, or any other method that works for you. I'm missing identification information for the GT540.

Thank you, I added those devices to the supported list. A little surprised that they all have full root since they only came out recently. On the Desire we had to wait for a while... >_<
And thanks to all those who bought from the Market to support development, it's greatly appreciated.
Very nice app. Thank you for developing it! Works perfect on HTC Desire
It seems that only ttf files are working, if anybody has a font which is otf for instance you can convert them here http://onlinefontconverter.com/
Hope op don't mind that i posted the link.

Just a second. You are giving me conflicting information. Did it say you don't have system write access OR root? Both will never be shown at the same time, I checked the code twice just now.
EDIT: Never mind, I was able to see that page. I'll get back to you soon hopefully.
it said it doesnt have write access. didnt say anything about root. sorry about that
EDIT: it said it didnt have full root. i must be tired, or something, lol.

First off thanks to everyone from the various SGS forums for this, especially to fear2142.
This is the Touchwiz4 Launcher from the SGS2 ported to work with Galaxy Tabs running a DeOdexed Gingerbread based build (or latest Overcome based on GB).
Changes I made for the Tab:
Fixed XML's to support larger screen
Adjust size for workspace/edit screens
Set Launcher workspace to 6 rows/ 6 columns (fits good)
Set appdrawer to 6x6 layout as well
Adjusted to allow 5 shortcuts on bottom bar
How to install?
This is a CWM3 package, save to sd card, use recovery to install (choose zip from sdcard etc)
You must clear your dalvik cache after install.
Reboot, clear the application data for twlauncher to ensure it displays properly.
This is currenty setup for 240 dpi, I'm working on a version for 182dpi as I type.
*UPDATE*
Alright, I've attached the 182 version. Unfortunatly I just cannot get it to accept a grid any larger than 8x8.. though I suppose that's still 64 spaces right?
Known Issues
Screen rotation is not currently working
Nice one mate!
Nice work! The screen rotation does not work for me.
Nice! Can't wait for 182 version

Since I can't yet post in the Dev section want to pass along my initial feedback on the new Tiamat ROM (2.0).
- First and foremost GREAT job. I was very disappointed with the HC 3.2 release and went back to Taimat 1.1 immediately.
- Would love to have back the new features from BRD's 1.1 mod pack. Screen capture and the enhanced Shutdown screen were awesome.
- Still can't connect my camera in Tiamat. Works in stock 3.2 . . . but no way am I going back there.
- Like others I really don't care for the new battery icon.
Again, terrific job Team Tiamat.

It's awesome! I don't mind the battery icon. Just add quick boot and there's a screen capture app (I forgot its name), so I don't care about mod pack (I didn't install it when I was on Tiamat 1.1).
I love the logical placement /naming of the MicroSD and the usbOTG.
All is smooth and working well. I added back ADW Ex launcher and that makes it just perfect.

When you say that you can't "update maps", are you referring to Google Maps? Is it a question of not being able to update the version from Marketplace or something in the functionality of the Maps app not updating?
Thanks

I hadn't noticed the ADW settings issue until I saw it mentioned this morning. Yeah, mine's affected too. It doesn't bother me because there's nothing that I need in ADW settings, but it's weird what does get affected. One of my favorite casual games used to work fine full screen but now it looks like it's phone sized and there's no zoom/stretch to fit setting available for that one app. Go figure?
Thanks for the quick response.
Any wifi users with stock 3.2 using adw ex? Are you experiencing this too?
I tried editing the packages.xml too. No Bueno..... Does anyone have a fix for this?

the only thing is that my 3G won't work. or rather, it will if i allow roaming in the mobile network settings (even though my sim card should not allow roaming)... any pointers to what i might have done wrong (yes, i am pretty sure i screwed something up here )

I have a Google Apps account using 2-step verification, and as soon as I enter my generated password, this error pops up:
Sorry! The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
I followed all the instructions to install the Tiamat 2.0 ROM (i.e. full wipe) and tried fixing permissions, etc. After doing this 3 different times, I believe there is a bug in the ROM handling/syncing Google accounts which use 2-step verification. If I remove the account from Settings, the error stops. (I would post this in the development thread, but alas I don't have enough posts to do so.)
Hello again,
After trying every custom rom for htc chacha/status I decided to give cm9 a try. So here are my experiences after some modifications of my own:
Very nice, stable and smooth even at 600mhz. No FCs whatsoever. It will be ready for daily use when video recording is fixed (it records, but couldn't play it).
Still, few things are really bothering me.
Camera has no saturation and contrast settings.
There is no option for additional call settings - my phone number is hidden by default from my carrier and I cannot show my number since there is no option for changing that (or I couldn't find it). It is always hidden which is annoying. There are a lot of people who are not willing to answer when someone is calling them from a hidden number.
There is no option to turn of overscroll effect. I turn it off in every cm mod I have used and I would like to be able to turn it off in this one as well.
Overall, very nice work and I hope that some day we will get a fully functional cm9 for our phones.
Cheers.
P.S. If anyone knows how to show my number and/or turn off overscroll effect, please, feel free to share.

Nope, its still laggy.
But I think its the same problem as with my Lg optimus one:
there I use a Cyanogenmod 9, Android ICS 4.0.4, CAF Kernel ROM
and they also got the HQ Youtube Problem:

Try taking lib called libOmxH264Dec.so from cm7 and replace it in cm9 and see if that fix the youtube issue. I fixed it like that in a different phone. Couldn't check it for myself since I reverted to cm7.

Strange. I could swear that I checked additional settings and that I could only see settings for network and not for call display.. Oh, well I was tired and I must have missed them. Cannot check it since I'm back to cm7.

In order to get GPS working try suggestion from cm7 thread. Flash stock rom or some other stock based, turn on GPS and get a lock for your position (in maps or gps test etc.) and then flash cm9 and your GPS should work.

It should be working. I'm in Germany. Tested and verified with the latest CM9 build.
Try GPS Test from Market.
Also, make sure you go to System Settings -> Location services -> GPS Source -> Select Use internal GPS -> OK.
Well, I can confirm that HQ in youtube is not smooth. Not with the changed lib I mentioned earlier as well. With GPS I have no issues. And Alex, I still cannot find settings for call display, lol... I'm not using the default launcher and I just don't see additional settings anywhere Am I blind or sth.? Are they located in the main settings or somewhere else?
Edit: I am blind Open the PHONE, you said! In my mind I read open the launcher menu and then settings - which are the main settings, OMG Found it, thanks

THANKS, now its working!
Here are the steps I made (for everyone with the GPS Problem)
Flashed Hexgore Rom.
Installed GPS Test.. (and run it)
Flashed CM9 Rom + Gapps (dont forget to wipe data)
AND yeaah the ICON is showing up :laugh::good:
Hi i'm new and i installed the cm9 for the Htc ChaCha and yes HQ in Youtube don't work i have the sound perfectly but not the movie .
Any solutions to fix it ?
Ps : Very nice rom the best actually for the ChaCha i think ,waiting fix
For the Youtube no. And it will probably never happen. Read the above links.

GPS Problem
Hi,
First, great work with this rom, it makes phone usage much better experience than with stock rom. Too bad only few people works on it.
Ok, to the point, i still got problem with making gps active, ie. no gps symbol in tray, when it should be there.
I tried reenabling it in settings->location->gps source->internal gps and it still doesnt work.
Havent tried reflashing rom, like bok``888 did, cause there must be easier explanation.
Reflashing suggests some cache wiping or poking with hardware settings, maybe this the reason? (i cleaned it before flashing ICS, just saying)
Key mappings
Last night i installed CM9 on my ChaCha, and everything works wonderful for me, the only big deal is the key mappings, all the letters/numbers work fine, but the simbols.....they are all switched my low knowledge of android modding tells me its just a question of a mapping file, tho I dunno what steps to take =/ any help? (tryed SuperOSR and I didn't had to do a thing, just for the info)
My mobile phone is from Portugal, dunno if that helps, but how can i solve this issue?
Thank You for the wonderfull ROM

IN ROOT FILES : ( use root explorer ) and just change your file in system/usr/keychars/ folder. is the folder for keymapping
ht tp://goo.im/devs/adlx/chacha/keypads/ have some keymapping files,chose your country !
This can help you i think ( Boa ferias )

ok cool stuff
Currently on AOKP, because... I dunno I wanted to see what r4ins was working with and it's a bit smoother than Paranoid. I have a blanket DPI of 180 with a market that fixes DPI incompatibility so no need to switch back yet.
However I do love Paranoid (great job gs2user) so I remember my settings.
Tablet UI (small) although to be honest the phone styled notification center is better
Status bar 185
Lockscreen 180
Default apps to 185
Calendar and email look the best in Tablet mode. I changed settings back to phone UI.

I thought I'd add my own configuration preferences to this thread. I love this ROM. I've tried going back to other ROMS here and there but everything just seems prehistoric to me with their setups. The fact that this ROM gives you the ability to use the phone like a tablet is awesome. The user interface is perfect for my particular needs / wants. Not to mention the ROM is quick and smooth. Here are some screenshots to illustrate what my setup looks like and what settings I used to get it. Enjoy.

awesome can't wait to see what you got for a setup.
As for me I set everything low to make it all small, haven't done it just yet after the recent flash but I will and send over some screen shots.
I also use hybrid mode for workspace, everything else with Paranoid Settings is as it comes.
This is by far my favorite ROM of all of them out there, I cannot bear to even switch, I've tried lol. Just can't stay away.
