Vibrant Home Dock "ported"

Well, not ported as they already mostly worked, just fixed a couple of hiccups. Nothing very clever going on here, but may be of interest to some folks.
As per request in another thread, I've fixed the Desktop Home app for the Samsung Vibrant so that the one thing that doesn't seem to work properly, the "Alarm" button, is now ok.
You can grab the APK from:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I've also partially fixed the Vibrant Car Home app so that the icons are centered and the "Contacts" link works. The "Search" button doesn't seem to do anything and it seems to be hit & miss as to if you get a "Browser" icon or a "Voice Search" icon as pictured below. It may be a compatibility issue with the JME firmware I'm running, I'll have a play later. Anyway, you can grab the .APK from:

The app is incredibly no-frills, there's no other settings or options whatsoever other than what appears on the screen. I'd suggest using the Car Home v3 app from the market instead, although this one does look pretty.
The apps don't lock the screen on either so are probably not terribly useful without an actual dock.
If I can decipher the decompiled smali code some more, I'll replace the "Search" icon with a "Music" one. Changing the app an icon runs is easy, implementing it when it's not already doing something is less so.

[Q] Dock and Icon help, please.

Can anyone provide these icons and dock, im on a CM7 ROM and can't find the jpg's at all. Oh and the included "phone" text next to the phone icon aswell, your help is much appreciated guys.

I can't provide those for you, but i can tell you those are stock HTC sense icons and it looks like a dock for one of myn's evo roms. Could be wrong on the second part, but that screenshot looks like it's from a sense rom.

Use Root Explorer and copy and paste the System apk, phone apk and whatever other apk that relates to the other icons onto your SD card. Then copy them all to your PC and extract each apk...one at a time so as not to lose track of each...with 7-Zip. Then look in the "res" > "drawable HDMI" folders for the icons and dock.
The apks will be in the "system" > "app" folders.

Oh ok ill try that and see what works, thank you guys I appreciate your efforts!

Oh no man not the sense icons on the homescreen, but the icons used for the phone, app drawer, and adding widgets down on the dock there.

[Q] how to change font?

i have a nexus s on ics 4.0.4 and i want to change my font to this: http://www.dafont.com/easy-speech.font
is there any tutorials or w.e on changing the font? or has someone already got a similar font that i can flash?
thanks
edit:
actually the font i originally wanted was this one:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
if anyone knows what font that is, that would be great

There are a few fonts that look similar in the Font Installer app, though not exact. Personally, I think I might like Eager Naturalist better in that style. It may at least be a quick and easy stopgap if not close enough for you.

If you are rooted , you can download rom toolbox. It has a font installer and it has allot of really good fonts to choose from. Over 100+ fonts I believe. You can download it from the market.
Sent from my Serendipity 6.4 flashed Captivate using xda premium

use a root browser to drop any font you like into the font folder to use it. system/fonts/(drop it here).
make sure permissions are fixed to rw-r--r--
that should work

font for nexus
this type of font you can get in, go to setting-> display and then font option also you can download front from google Play, even if your phone is not rooted,
if your phone is rooted then there are several ways to change the font and you can also get lots of font
please press thank if you found this helpful

Pls help, word suggestions bar not visible after root (android 2.1), 9 key unusable

I had a problem after rooting my nook touch where the no keyboard was capable of displaying a suggestions bar. Word predictions, dictionaries, etc. have no problem and if set to automatically choose the first prediction, it would work fine as 'auto text prediction'. I've tried about 10 different keyboards/input methods and they all seem to work except the suggestion bar is gone from all of them. This is regardless of which application or application settings.
The main problem with this is, the first prediction isn't always the right one, and it makes 9 key keyboards impossible, as well as any non romanized language (particularly Chinese which depends on the bar to choose the correct character).
So, I'm wondering what in the firmware could cause this effect, and is there any thing I can do to patch it?
My device details:
Rooted nook simple touch (touchnooter) running on 1.1 firmware with android 2.1.
The keyboards were installed (as required) to system/app by installing to data/app and then copying the apk into system/app and rebooting. This is necessary supposedly for the nook touch as the keyboard settings screen is absent (the normal android settings menu has been totally replaced with the nook one) and default keyboard must be set by another application which requires the apk to be in the systems directory.
Hopefully there is some android guru's out there who can figure out what may have caused this weird problem. Thanks!!

Here are some pictures to illustrate:
How it SHOULD look with the word suggestions:

Honeycomb 3.2.1 Launcher [WIP]

Hello. First, let me talk about my obcessin for this wonderfull piece of magic called Honeycomb Launcher..
IMO it was the coolest launcher ever made by google, with that 'APPS' and ' + ' button at top, dizzy :silly: animations to change wallpaper and enter in the app-drawer.
So I started a project, to port it for our Notes ^---^
I grabbed a 'launcher2.apk' from my xoom 3.2.1 honeycomb stock room and decompiled it without dependencies.
I'm having a hard timing figuring how to port it, just because I know nothing about this. But every help will be apreciated.
When i arrive at home I'll provide some screenshots and files that I'm using. :highfive:
'Launcher2.apk' itself from my old rom will not install itself. If you force it on sys folder on note, you'll see that it is listed as a Launcher in Home chooser, but when you try to open it, it'll force close in your face.
Every little piece of help will be apreciated, and if someone, by a miracle, wants to do the job, it'll be blessed by my 'thanks' in every single action in their life.
So, albeit I'm in my job, I'll post some screenshots of HC launcher from stock rom. It looks like this, and this, and this :good:
