Due to the similarity between the motorola triumph and the droid x, I would like to remove the carrier name entirely or make it say Verizon Wireless... Is this possible? even making it saay just "android" would be better ;P thanks...

Why would you want to do that?

Maybe he secretly wants to fool his friends... I have no effing idea, and he never replied to your question.....
He has another thread he wanted to make it his name or what ever he wanted. At least I think it was him. Either or that would be pretty sweet but I think they said its not possible because it updates from the carrier.

We have the solution for this now, right? Either services.jar or framework-res.apk, and somebody very kind pointed me to the latest version of apktool for de-and re-compiling those files.
I've had bad experiences just moving them with a file manager, so a better way of doing it would be to use a combination of adb push to the sdcard, then running a shell, su, and... Crap. Was it a cp or mv commands from there? I forget.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
Change it in framework Res/Res/layout/status_bar_latest_event.XML, if I remember correctly. You could always use the uot kitchen to change the carrier text and color.
Edit- just read the guide on how to change it. Disregard my previous statement.

There's a specialized color changer available on sdx if I remember right, in their Motorola Triumph section.

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!!!

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

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only android phone capable of taking a screenshot out-of-the-box is the LG G2x/Optimus2x. Every other android phone required a screenshot application such as drocap, shootme, etc.
That's correct, I use Shootme, you have to be rooted to use it. I believe MIUI has something like it built in to the ROM.
Wait a minute.... aren't you the same djk7777 that made a ROM? But you can't figure out the screenshots???

Great point! That whole "Donate To Me towards getting a nexus prime or htc holiday" is WRONG WRONG WRONG. Get rid of it.
it's how you went about the whole thing. you didn't test it. it didn't work. you accepted donations. when it didn't work you argued with people defending your lack of knowledge. you asked devs to fix it for you. and in the end you promised ports from the gs2 and a sense port.
wanting to learn is one thing. I'm in the same boat there but I test things before they get posted. I resolve my own issues. I read and pull things apart to learn about what's inside.
maybe I didn't need to bring it up but if yoy don't see something wrong with that then I'm sorry. I don't know what to tell you.

if u build something. do it right. and dont ask for donations. thats just rude man. let them come to you. second. you call it "making", if your using another dev's rom base that is not making. extracting the factory.rfs with magic iso and going from there is called making. my stock rogers rom i did all myself. deodexed, zip aligned, png optimized, etc.

good point. there are a few here starting out. I made explicitly sure it was clear simply honey is not my work and I won't accept donations till I move on to another project as I don't want to take from the creators. that thread is about dead now sinse I have little time and an unresolved issue or 2. actually I may wait till I get that "recognized developer" tag before I put up a donations link.
I didn't make that Rom I "ported" it. I may "make" a basic Rom soon. but time is an issue.

I believe that's to be used with Kies + 3rd party software like wondershare mobilego. You plug the phone in via USB and load up the software, everything you see on the phone shows on the screen and you can screenshot it with the program.

Even if it is is, MOST of the things people are paranoid about with CarrierIQ, the carrier can ALREADY do! IE: See what sites you visit, your texts, your phone calls. They have had this ability for a long time, carrier side.
But doesn't having this on the phone also eat away at precious battery life ? By the way, is this on both the OSG2 and sky rocket?

Would also like to add I bought my Siii from radio shack and it didnt come with carrierIQ on it, maybe we can find an original image of radio shacks rom to be using for these custom roms?

The reason you aren't finding anything on the market is changing Live Wallpapers requires root access.
Try Easy Profiles it won't cycle your Live Wallpapers, but you can set a different one for each profile. Maybe if you request it the developers they will add that option to app.
