[MOD]Xoom Honeycomb Tray Bar Vertical Layout - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
I want to ask if it's possible to but the honeycomb tray on left side with vertical layout instead of down with horizontal. What level of framework modification is required to achieve this? Could someone work on this, i could buy him some bears if he succeds.
Thanks

this belongs in Q&A dude

if you can buy me a real life bear I might could work something out

I offer 15 Euro for the start to the first who makes this possible. Anybody is free to add more.

Moved to Q&A.

I would love to be able to move the bar to the top. Much more thumb-friendly when the com is resting on its bottom on my lap and I need toaccess the home/back/task buttons.

That would be kinda neat to see.

You should really change the title from [MOD] to question or something... it makes it seem like you developed a new mod and from the view count vs replies it looks like i wasn't the only one mislead by the title.

Changing Duttys picture on boot?

I have searched splash screen on forums and really haven't come up with much. Is their a way to change the screen that dutty uses for his own picture with his name on it?
change your desired picture name to welcomehead.96 and drag it into the Windows folder on your phone.
make sure its 240X320

Please....just next time post this in Dutty's thread instead of creating a new one....
Please!!!
so to save on all the threads like this one. when the issue comes up add it to the wiki. may make life a bit easier for the newest members.
Dutty also needs to know their is a white square to the left of the windows logo that is very annoying, I filled it in with black but that is very unnprofessional to miss that.

Hey let me know when you make a ROM so I can rip the S*%T out of it OK.
If you don't like change to another one...there are numerous other ones to try...ain't nobody holding a gun to your head.
...and to critique a welcome screen which is probably one the easiest things to change show's real lack of knowledge and plain stupidity on your part.
So please keep your lame opinions to yourself....
It shows amatuerism on his part to not have the welcome screen corrected, I am using his new 6.1 version from feb 20th, it has white dot upper left hand corner that I had to take MY time and fix. I took the time to download his ROM I expect something perfect.

LOL you amuse me.
Umm...did you pay for this ROM?
Did you have a special request for this ROM. Nobody else seems to have this problem with there phone as there are over 320 page with no issues like this. Maybe check your own phone and make sure there is nothing wrong with it. I'm sorry you had to waste YOUR worthless time to fix this insignificant problem. You probably see the welcome screen for what like 30 seconds...I didn't know you were that critical of such a small thing.
You're beyond helping.
Just please next time post this in Dutty's thread...that was all I was trying to say in first place. I wipe my hand of this.
Oh and BTW Dutty didn't make the welcome screen somebody else did...so make sure you know what your talking about before you criticize somebody. Amateur. Oh btw amatuerism is spelled amateurism.
Dutty takes his personal time to package together an operating system and standard package of software that is well integrated and operates considerably better than the standard package provided with the phone, and you have the gall to say this s**t?
Since you obviously don't have a clue, this one is on me -- No non-trivial software is free of bugs. Dutty does this by himself, and he will make mistakes. Pay attention to the things that work so much better than what you had instead of nit-picking.
To paraphrase ATW- Put up, or shut up. Let's see what you have to offer to the community other than non-constructive criticism.
I don't know why you are attacking me guys I am just pointing out some constructive thing for Dutty to replace, nothing is wrong with my screen, I have installed it and hard reset, their is a white dot on his welcome screen that I fixed with putting a black small square over and looks perfect now. Maybe everyone was busy kissing his ass in the thread and not telling him what need corrected so his ROM could be perfect.
His ROM works very fast and I like it, I am not critizising the OS or anything like that.
jt
I don't know about any "ass kissing" in Dutty's thread because I see well deserved compliments on his hard work that he shares with the community. I do see an ass in this thread and it's not Dutty's. To criticize Dutty for not being professional for an insignificant white dot on a screen he didn't make is beyond asinine. Offer constructive critique but don't be a jackass about trivial matters when he provides us with great ROMs he makes on his free time.

Which Manila Mod?

Just curious: which Manila Mod do you like the most: Cookie's or MaxManila? It would be very nice if you give/describe your arguments for your choice. Thanks in advance.
regards, Kuzibri
I doubt many people will want to vote on this as a +ive vote for one seems like a -ive vote for the other, and they're both amazing mods.
I bet if you put an extra option of "I love them both" on there then you'd have loads of votes.
Besides, no-one on here has heard of NaxManila lol

you're very alert!!!
I'm mostly interested which one of the two is the most popular/practical/userfriendely, etc. Making a choice for either one does not mean a negative opinion/vote for the other one IMHO.
I'm willing to add the third option to the poll only don't know how to do/achieve that??
I don't think you can alter polls once you've made them, which makes sense really. Imagine doing a poll that says "which do you prefer" with the options "wm6.1" and "wm6.5" and you then add "iPhone" a month later lol. That would be funny actually
I've voted anyway. I like them both but have a preferred choice.

On second thought I do not think adding a third option (like them both) is necessary, because the mods cannnot coexist together on one device. So one has to make a choice between either Cookie or MaxManila.

Thanks John, I really do not mind whether many people will vote or not, or even comment on their choice. I also do like both mods but, just like you, I have my preference. Just curious how the odds are between these two amazing mods!
IMO the voting goes pretty well, though I would like to have/see some more arguments/comments regarding the choice one has made. I know that both mods are amazing but people must have made a choice based on arguments pro/con cause the mods cannot coexist on the same device. This poll is not meant to judge either of the mods (and also not to offend the developers of these wonderful mods), but just based on my personal curiosity why people choose either Cookie or MaxManila for their device. No hidden reasons/agenda or whatever.
regards, Kuzibri
Vote one for MaxManila!
I thought I would add a few supporting points as to why I prefer MaxManila.
Cookies is great, there is no denying that and ultimately, IMHO the best option would be to have them compatible with each other. If MM and Cookies could coexist I would be in a happy la la land of joy!
As it stand though, I had to make a choice. My reasoning was that, when it came down to it, Cookies really only offered me lots and lots of pages icons. I don't really need this. It was annoying on the iPhone as it was, it is also much the same as how the start menu is now, just side-by-side and a little more flexible in customisation.
MaxManila offered more than that. It offered a combination of features I would otherwise have installed individually; background for all tabs (including panoramic), increase number of quicklinks, transparent slider, customisable history and calendar bars, among other things.
The one thing that probably sold it for me was the clock options. I prefer the digital/analog side-by-side clock look to the original Sense UI. With eight layout options and many alternative clock appearances there is something for everyone.
Overall MaxManila is easy, flexible and attractive... oh, and have you seen what's to come next? See here ... I can't wait!

Franwella, thanks for your answer and arguments of choice. I also prefer MaxManila for almost the same reasons as you mention,plus the fact that it gives you the opportinuty to keep your homescreen as clean as possible. I know what is coming and it looks very promising. Awaiting the ETA.

I was quite interested to see that there is such a difference in the numbers between MM and Cookie users. I initially thought the results would be fairly balanced.
Obviously the poll is still only covering a very small group, but it makes me wonder what the reason for the imbalance is. Is it just that people aren't as familiar with MM? Are people looking for the iPhone like icon overload?
Hmmmm, it will be interesting to follow this thread and see how the stats develop.

Thank you very much for your reply and argumentation of your choice! The goal of the poll is just to know which of the two mods people are using and, if possible, why. It's not meant to be a better/worse poll.

Hmmm
I wonder if this poll will actually inform some people of MaxManila's existence? and will any one change from one to the other?

Sounds like a bias there to me
You're assuming that people have just take Co0kie's and don't know about MaxManila because of the poll results. That's a really unfair thing to say, and it sounds like you're assuming that the majority would want the one that you have.
I'm not getting into an argument about it, so I won't take this any further, but it does sound like you're trying to prove your own decision correct, rather than find out what people are actually using. That's all the poll tells us - nothing more.

Are you referring to Franwella's post or mine? If you're referring to me, then you have misunderstood me. I really do want to find out what people want/use/choose, but the difference between these two marvelous mods is unexplainable for/to me, that's all. Everybody has his/hers own freedom of choice and I do not want anybody to convince to take a certain/other choice. I really do not mind which one of the two people choose/use, I made my choice and probably you made yours. Hope this explanation helps.

OK, but nevertheless: see my last post to you.
On the other hand everyone is entitled to have its own opinion or express his/hers surprise/amazement/meaning of the huge difference between these two great mods without (having the intention to force) forcing anybody to change his/her mind. Personally I think, although I respect you and your work very much, that your reaction was a little harsh/negatively loaded (probably because you're a Cookie user and you are also the writer of CHT Editor) and I'm not pleased with the accusation of assumimg that people should choose what I want, unless you are just being sarcastic/cynical judged by the smiley you added to your post.
Because I respect you very much and do not intend to offend you, I would like to propose that we end this discussion by stating that we stand differently in this matter, but that neither of us, or if you prefer I, tries to convince people to make a certain choice.
kind regards, Kuzibri

Need a Rom Maker for this:D

Ok so ive been running this thru my head for days now. So this is me telling the world my idea and seeing if its worth a crap. I would like to have a tablet like rom for the g1. this sounds crazy but i found a app called lcd density changer and you can change the density to make the screen appear as if it is a high resolution one and things are smaller. Makes me feel like i have a large screen agian. i may be crazy but its just a idea, i am a noob probably a noob idea. but i would love to see this.
LCD Density Changer is in the market
And please if i am a idiot dont be to harsh just now getting into the whole android scene
I really dont understand what you mean. All the android versions running on current tablets are the excact same versions as they run on android phones. The screen is just larger.
Sent from my HTC Dream using XDA App
If your wanting to change android icons to be smaller, its not possible on the phones unless you get a widget that allows you to put 2 rows of icons on a regular single row. The reason why you cant just change icon size is because when programming apps the sdk automatically sets the amount of rows and colums for the screen device.

OMGZ THEREM's BIG COMPANIES LAUNCHING COOL TABLETS AT CES AND ALL I HAVE IS MY G1!! LETS SEE WHAT THEM DEVZ CAN DO!!!
-OP
Meh, leave him alone
@jfeyrer
like @Since001 says, the tablets are running the same kind of andriod, just a different screen res
Something like ADW Launcher can give you more 'app slots' ( which is why post 4 is such a laugh )
but at the end of the day you will gain nothing by having more icons on the 'desktop'
you will have more problems interacting at the 'finer' res ,
here is a stupid analogy
it would be like trying to play a blueray through a 1st gen 15" tft
you could probably rig it so it works, but why? a divx would be much easier.
I do apoligize i am new to all this just thought it would be a cool idea.
And thanks for the explanations they really helped me understand

Calling all graphic wizards out there!

For the Samsung Continuum, we are in desperate need of people who are good with designing and changing graphics and icons... Trailblazer has done most of the hard work in accessing/customizing the ticker, however neither he, nor I, have the graphic ability to make good looking graphics and/or icons... For those with Continuums, if you are interested in contributing, and gaining your 15 minutes of fame (okay, maybe not ), either send me a PM, or reply to this thread. We will ALWAYS give credit where credit is due!
On the other hand, if you want lame or none-existent icons/graphics, I can always call up Kolourpaint and throw something ugly together. But, trust me, you don't want to see that. Remember the old 8 bit Atari graphics? See, I thought so...
Ciao!
Hey Shadow, are there particular icons that you're looking for? I'd like to give it a shot, however there are probably many who are far more accomplished digitally. If you could give me an idea I'd be willing to post a couple here and you all can let me know how crummy they are ;-)
Peace,
Ray
Specifically, I have a couple ideas xD
For the first one, maybe a blue ring that would go around the WeatherBug Weather image on the ticker... As in, when you click the weather icon, it would clearly show that you areeee actually clicking it for once
Second idea, maybe a few small, colored dots that could be placed on the main ticker display... These Dots, which i could have say, for example, a small "M" for messaging, would launch Messaging when clicked... Preferably green, orange, and purple or whatever, then another blue one that i could set as the image when clicked....
Third, maybe a nice button to go on the main page that changes when clicked (just make two images) and maybe has "Continuum" or something catchy
More ideas to come:
Thank you Moon Shadow - MN for making this post for me!

well i used to work for a graphics design firm and clothing company a few years back. this weekend i could hook up my good old media pc and get it updated with the apps (adobe suite/paint) i could cook up a few things and will get back to a thread (ill post in this one for starts) feel free to pm me about it and throw ideas. havent been around lately (hands full taking my son cross state back to his mommas) but new ec07 is going pretty good for me. yall have been great to me.
thanks for everything
unpacked my media pc and yay no keyboard or mouse
and gotta format etc. pushing me back a day or so.
ps... do u think a moving .gif would work for softkey and ticker mods?

Did the mouse eat the keyboard? Did the cat eat the mouse? (Okay, enough!)
AFAIK, the icons that are used within Android are PNG's not GIF's. I know you can't animate a PNG, so I think it may be a sequence. Trailblazer would be in a better position to answer that item.

[Q] Paying $100 usd for a custom rom made for photography

My Wife has been a professional photographer for about 7 years now. her birthday is coming up within the next 2 weeks. I have purchased her an Htc Sensation for her birthday.. I would like to have a custom rom made for her with photography as a main theme and really the purpose of the phone.. Ex.. a photograhpy style ui theme. Camera tweaks etc etc.. i am no dev so i do not know what can and cant be done.
If any dev is interested in this please feel free to pm me or leave a reply on this thread..
I will pay via pay pal when the project is completed.
Sincerely Kevin
one comes stock with the fone, check it under lockscreen, and get a live wall paper called "photogrid" and the phone will now display pics when locked and unlocked.
the stock camera is really good for a fone, but there is a mod to improve it vastly
...unless i completely missed the point, there is no need to waste your money with a request such as this

I would guess he wants this to be the equivalent of the audiophile rom for the galaxy s 4g
For the most part i'm interested in a theme. I am no photographer or have really any artistic ability.
I would like someone to create a Themed ui that is represenetive in a way Photographer feels about their passion.
Foto tile slideshow is a much better live wallpaper to use i find.. Displays multiple pictures at once from a few sources

thats a tall order right there, for the most part, when i capture my "passion" on a fone i do it myself, kinda pointless if someone else's interpretation of an idea you try to conceive comes through...more often than not, you wont be satisfied...
on top of that, i done think anyone will make this for you on such a short notice for that amount of money...your best bet is to pm a few themers in the themes and apps thread and cross your fingers.
other than that, im sure she will love the fact that you got her this fone, it has a great camera, and really, its the thought that counts when giving a gift ;P
