Why are so many roms coming with 5 row app drawers..I hate them..The scrolling on them is is jittery and the app icons are smaller..I wish more developers would include a flashable zip for the stock 4 row..The transparent stuff is wack also..just my two cents no one has to agree

Since I don't have to agree, I won't. But if you don't like it, I'm sure you could search this site for a mod to remove it.
Ummmm ok..thing is the developers have to make a mod...I've been rooted since the days of the G1 so I'm pretty knowledgeable..the mod would have to be on the same frameworks as the rom u have or you will encounter problems..can't just flash any mod for it..my original staement was as to why the 5 row drawers seem to come with every rom

If you don't like it, replace it. Get another launcher, like launcher pro, that you can specify rows x cols for your app drawer

Being a knowledgable Android person, you would know these mods are made in Rosie.apk, not the framework. And seeing as how every rom is based on stock, all you would need to do is pull Rosie.apk from stock unmodified rom and push it into your current rom, making sure permissions are right. But I'm sure you already knew all of this since you owned a G1...

LOL! That's great; I didn't even notice, and I'm a stickler for that kind of thing! Nice catch.
OP: As to why "most roms" come with a 5 column app-drawer, I believe it's because most people want that. Not to minimalize your needs, but if the masses demand it, give them what they want!
I don't recall anyone contacting me, via twitter, or irc, save one person in regards to the 5 columns.
Guess what? The person who asked me got their own personal package to flash.
Guess what else? Now that my PC went tits up, you just gonna have to wait, or go through one the above channels. I don't have a lot of access anymore to my stuff.
Yes I know the rosie apk can be pulled...I've done it before on the Htc Evo using root explorer and setting the correct permissions..I'm not a dumbass..there are times when the rosie simply will not worked being pushed to the system..this is my post expressing that I don't like them..if I needed help doing it I would have asked..some people need to spend more time realizing this is a forum and not tryna feel the need to prove something...NEXT!!!

And by frameworks I meant that I have pushed a certain rosie apk's to a rom and the colors did not work correctly with the rom...stop trying to pick apart my post..comment, help, advise, or don't respond..

Remember it's the internet, where he is right and everyone else is wrong, stupid, or doesn't know anything.
OP - if you don't like it, change it, the devs aren't required to do anything. Funny how you come here to complain about it but obviously didn't ask one dev if they could do it for you.

You pushed it wrong then. Other than that, only issue would be you have the wrong Rosie. Anyone will tell you Root Explorer is not exactly the way to push framework files and Rosie.apks. For a knowledgeable person, you seem to know so little.
Some of u are not reading my original post right..instead your trying to bash me on the internet like I'm a total dumbass which will not happen..I expressed something I did not like..I know there are launchers available..I don't want to use those..I also did not ask how to do it..I don't need someone trying to question my intelligence neither or try to make themselves seem like the "Android rooting GURU"..You like what you like and I like what I like, there is no right or wrong..I have knowledge using adb while some of you are trying to bash at me..this is a general discussion forum..I don't need to be attacked

There are many other threads that contain the icon pack for the android 7 theme. All this is my custom icons for mdpi devices with my own custom dimensions for the android 7 theme. So this is my work just the method of applying it isn't. I did nothing wrong bro, I learned my lesson already.
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA Premium App
not tryna be rude or anything.. but this isn't your theme.. its just an ICON PACK u made..
this was done back in sept 2010 found here
and i even created an "ICON" pack found here back in sept..
its been done many times over and probably doesn't hold much interest anymore.. but to start your OP off with "Kifno's LauncherPro Theme" isn't the right way to go about it..
also.. you could use some pointers in creating your icons, cause most of them either look stretched or squeezed..
The thread I mention has many people posting their icons. Currently yours is the last post on that thread. It says you are almost done with your icons.
Now... you made a new thread to show off your work and separate it from the 30 page thread full of other peoples contributions.
I think you need to ease back on how proud of yourself you are. This seems to be kifnos icon set for a theme, more than kifnos theme. Just like your roms... they aren't your roms, they are your mods to existing roms.
So far you aren't a themer or a dev, yer just a modder. A modder who seems really full of himself, who makes long posts telegraphing his long term plans to anyone who will read it.
Your skills are being overshadowed by your boastful self-importance.

Mondays are good too. Still fresh.
Kifno, I think you should try not to spread yourself too thin. This forum needs thinking and enthusiasm and will reward creativity - but there are too many informed people to try and embellish ones creations.
It's quality not quantity that counts most. Focus and let your work be your voice and not your voice.
People here are actually trying to help you with developing and with life in general. You don't have to be "the best", be your best and just relax and focus.
Don't take your ball home- just play smart. And whatever you do, don't try and sell your story on these threads and don't come off as a victim- you will lose respect, not gain it. You're young and have a lot of time.
Also, don't break your neck doing head spins.

Beg for someone to make customizations for me? Really now. Last I checked my last post asked to be pointed towards a do it yourself guide. Also the hostility is unnecessary. Why resort to such ill mannered forms of conversation because I rebuked your unhelpful and unnecessary post.

Same here. I have yet to see a dev give us the option. I guess most are like sheep and simply follow what seems popular. When we first got our Tbolt display units (I'm a VZW sales rep) this feature was one of my favorites.

I'm a noob (very). I am seeing alot of screenshots where people have really nice looking notification bars. I especially like the ones with the blue colored wifi, signal status and battery icons.
Are those from phones with custom roms? Can I get a theme from the market that will do that for me?
I am fully rooted but very new and feel I'm not ready to flash "stuff" yet...I paid $500 for our phone. I'm studying hard thought.
If anyone knows where I can download and an app that can make my notification bar look fancy I would greatly appreciate any info or links.

Well to the best of my knowledge you can't really tinker with your status bar until you have a custom rom and for the most options preferrably one based off of a Gingerbread (2.3 +) build. If you are already rooted then flashing roms is really safe. Do you have Clockwork Mod Recovery?

hahaha! thanks, you made my day.
oh noes! have i become a troll?!
@pagan HTC Vision. I only asked if you were trolling my forum because after I posted "I'm stock 2.2 froyo. Rooted. Bloat free. Fota fixed. Thats all. Very eager to learn"
You asked me if I have ClockworkMod Recovery. I'm stock how can I have CWM?...maybe you didn't read before you replied. It happens...you also said flashing roms is really safe. So a noob (very) like can flash easily?
Its all good. Lol..
I spend most of my free time racing (at the helm) sailboats. J22's (with spinnaker) mainly.
However I'm a diletante who has recently discovered modifying android phones. I am intrigued. I Want to show people what people are doing. Their genius.. and show off MY phone. I want to be able to do a what you all are doing...
You have gingerbread 2.3 is that custom? Or can I buy it stock?
Thanks for your replies. For real.

Just because you're still running the stock rom doesn't preclude you from having clockwork mod recovery, when you rooted an app called "Superuser" should have been installed on your device. Also you may have an app called "Rom Manager" installed as well, if you don't have that one it's free in the market (and I highly suggest getting it, it is very necessary). Check to see if you have the rom manager app and let me know, if you don't, then download it from market and post back. I'll help you get clockwork mod recovery up and running, then we'll get you a basic understanding of all its functions. After that you can back up your device and get you a custom rom installed.

@Jerry D - It looks like you have the Galaxy S 4G. If that is the phone you have, Clockwork is not quite ready for our phones. We do not have any custom rom's available at this time. So there is no way to change your notification bar.
@golmar88. Thanks for your reply. I have been reading or forum multiple times a day for a couple of weeks now and definitely up to date on our progress.
I'm that noob who is going to study and wait for something I can handle....
I saw rom manager on the market and thought wow this will be cool. I'll root and I'll have a "rom of the day". Lol.
I didn't know the work involved or the risk. After reading what is going on here I'm "hooked". I love learning new things and can't wait until I know a fraction of what some people on here know. I can't wait to flash my first rom.
Thanks again for all your help!

I know right?! As you can see, I'm a junkie (and I don't know anything either). I'm on here pretty much all day everyday, and we don't even really have any development to speak of.
Hopefully we'll get some stuff before too long.
Ok so I have the X-TremE CM10 1.5 Pure ROM on my Samsung Galaxy SII but the loclscreen is different than it should be, the icon that looks like a lock is replaced by some kind of dragon .. i've gone through all the settings a few times but I can't find out how .. I guess some place in the framework.
Can you ease tell me how to do this? And be specific because i'm a huge noob ...
I'll put a screenshot of how to lockscreen looks right now.
Thanks!

Have you tried widget locker lockscreen? Its a paid app ($3 US)definitely worth purchasing if you find yourself tinkering a bunch though.

Discussing pirated apps is not allowed here on xda. The widgetlocker developer is actually a member here.
@OP I suggest asking in the ROM thread since this is very ROM specific and it looks like the dev added it in himself. Otherwise, unless you are completely glued to this one ROM I'm sure there's another JB ROM without this dragon.
(Personally though, it looks pretty bad ass. I'd love it if it were my phone)

I apologize I never said pirated, bootleg or anything to infer that. furthermore I did encourage paying for the app. This attitude is why I have now 11 posts in nearly a year but in other Kernel specific forums I have hundreds a month. Gonna mind my own business and take what I bring to the table elsewhere.

You cannot get it officially outside of the Google Play store, unless its directly from TeslaCoil himself. When you download a paid app for free on another site, that is pirating.
If I said took this guys iPhone and sold it, isn't that stealing? But no I didn't say anything to infer that.

Please tell me isn't there anything I can replace in the framework files? What's the name of the lockscreen file?
