ADW Launcher - smoother, and more usable
Some one posted this over in Cyanogens site and on here.. (I don't take credit)
ADW Launcher - smoother, and more usable
1) Screen Preferences - Desktop scrolling speed - set to something low-ish like 150-200, default settings are just plain moronic here. Desktop overshoot should be fine at 30 or 40.
2) Drawer Settings - Horizontal Drawer definite on (this is far superior to the scrolling drawer if you have more than a few apps, and feels much smoother).
3) Drawer Settings - Zoom effect speed - 400 is a decent setting, default was way too high.
4) Drawer Settings - Columns/Rows - 4x4 is a nice setting for portrait, if you don't like a crammed screen.
5) System Preferences - Wallpaper Hack - check this. If you have issues, change wallpapers to something of a sane size.
6) System Preferences - Use Screen Cache - check this.
7) System Preferences - Scrollable Widget support - you should start with this unchecked. Only check it if you have issues with some widgets. In my experience it didn't make a huge difference in performance or smoothness.
There you go, 2 minutes invested in making ADW.Launcher faster and smoother than LauncherPro. If you use these settings and still find ADW.Launcher to be slow and chunky on a Nexus One, then there is something going on with your phone. I suggest doing a Wipe Cache and Wipe Dalvik Cache, or freeing up some memory.

i have this problem frequently thats why i make mods and roms. i can get it but not everyone can, and even i sometimes have to wipe, and/or a bunch of other crap. its basically at your own risk but you can look and the pics HERE; it does work, and im using it currently as is anyone else using my cyan mod. i havent had time because i been busy but my intentions were to add update zip form but havent got back to it yet. when i make a rom or mod i install everything before i sign it and thats why it all works in them. it does work, its just very picky. i have many pics. it works just fine other wise i wouldnt even know what it looked like after i themed it

If you're going to post tons of files it might be useful to have a little bit of a description of what each one does next to it e.g.:
SPRINT VVM UPDATE.ZIP - this is the OEM Sprint Visual Voicemail App
Very helpful thread, Thank you.
One question I have is how to change the home screen. I prefer LauncherPro to ADW but when I try to switch Home screens with "Home Switcher" LauncherPro does not stick as the default home screen. Any help would be appreciated.
Sorry if this is the wrong thread.
I have been searching for a way to access or change my PRL using CM6?
I have installed EPST.apk from another rom, and I don't know if there are more files I must include, or if it's simply not supported yet.
So far, the only way I have been able to change my PRL is flashing an eclair rom and then flashing cyanogen nightly.
Thanks

i switched my prl before i went to cyan and since ive been here i flashed the radio suggested in the first dev thread and everything works for me great. personally i have never noticed a difference in prl other than one time my market apps wouldnt update right and after i accepted the new prl it worked. that was way back on hero though. I dont really trust the ota stuff, but you are cyanogen now dont even have to worry anymore with the htc or sprint bs.
also check out your cyangenmod settings in settings. manymany options. if you have any questions just let me know or post...
Upon further reading of this post and some of the links, (please excuse my stupidity) I take it these files are meant for cyanogenmod roms. If you install or flash them on other roms, it might break something.
I was curious about the two voice mail files. Both are different file sizes than the one that is in my rom, so obviously they aren't the same thing. I was tempted to try them out, but my common sense told me that these are probably meant for cyan's rom. I take it that it would be a better idea to wait until the rom is released to the masses before playing with stuff like this.
Am I understanding you correctly with these assumptions or not? With me still being kinda newbish, maybe these questions could help other people that are newbs too.

Thanks for this.
Also, I'm in the camp that typically finds your mods a bit too loud for my taste, but as a few people said in the thread, I really dig power up. Nicely done. Not that your other stuff is bad at all, just different strokes for different folks.
I'll probably try this one out if I'm not crazy busy sometime soon.
I started an FAQ/known bugs thread, but they moved it to Q&A, which has rendered it almost useless. I'll link to this, but if the mods let this one stay maybe we should merge my content into here.

It really seems like since CM is getting so much attention there should be a sticky that gets regular updates with known issues and features so people don't post the same stuff over and over quite as much. The OP on the main CM thread isn't keeping it very updated, but he did state that it should be a temp thread, he didn't offer to keep it updated.
As far as my app drawer to get it running smoother I downloaded the free adw one theme, switched theme to adw one theme then back to default theme worked perfect... Also get the transparent app drawer instead of black background with default which is pretty cool

hey good thinking. i dont wanna break my evo either. give me some details and ill give you some answers. the vm apks are different because one is in update.zip form(flashed thru recovery like a rom) and the other is the apk alone. as far as the apps being for cyan only; most of them can be used on any rom. this is just a cyan geared assistance thread. but let me know the ones you want to be sure and ill let you know from my own experience, since ive used most every version of every rom weve had so far what works and what wont. most should work fine. if you are new, i do not recommend messing with cyankeyboard until i put it in a zip.
is there any way to get only the kernel of this rom becouse im unable to flash the rom i got error flashing it
-and yes i try to use a newer recovery but when i apply update.zip it goes back to the old clockworkmode
or can someone give me a link of a newer update.zip or any idea
OK, I've searched for days to try and find a fast, stable, sense-ui (Theme-wise) ROM that works on the HTC Hero. I've found tons of ROMS for the G1, I've tried the CyangenMod 6 ROM, I've spent hours searching for a good ROM. CM6 is a bit faster, but occasionally it will hang. (A bit better than stock 2.1) I don't like that a lot of apps don't work (After downloading an app and installing it, you can't click open or find it in your apps list) and I don't like that the fact that you can't group your contacts or have the Sprint/HTC widgets work. (The only widgets I use are the clock and the email, messages, and voice mail widgets that show how many you received.
Please let me know if you use one like that you can recommend.

For a good sense UI rom I would go with Zen rom. You can find it here.
I've been using this rom NFX-Hero 2.2.1 by nfinitefx45. After playing with other roms and the cyanogen ones, i've come back to this one. I've been running this for a couple weeks and it's pretty smooth and stable. So give it a try. Also, nfinitefx45 is one dedicated developer, he actually visits the thread often and help with answering questions, solving problems/bugs!

+1 nfinite's roms are put together well and are fast yet also solid.
I'm using the cyanogen rom. CM6. It's actually running android 2.2 (froyo) instead of 2.1, and I think it has a better keyboard and runs very well. I use the "digital clock widget", and the weather and "news and weather" widget, I think both are available in the Market, but News and weather came with the rom. I miss the bookmarks and calendar widgets from Sense, but its not worth going back. As far as voicmail goes I'm using google voice to handle my it, and there are widgets for it too.

I use CM6 as well, and prefer it over any sense rom but the OP wanted sense so I thought I'd humor myself
The CM6 with CyanogenSense theme looks and feels like my stock Hero, but runs way faster and has a better battery life. Zen makes a great rom, bit imo the CM6 is the way to go.

I've decided to try making a theme using the tutorial thread number 667951. (I can't post links yet I don't think, so again I'll just use this work around.) That being said, I've decided to stick with NFX-HERO for my ROM since the only thing wrong with it is the boot loop issue which I'm going to try starting from scratch to fix it today. So, the tutorial says that a good starting point for a theme would be to get an existing compatible theme and modify that one. (Great idea in my opinion. I've done this in the past with other phones I had.) Does anyone have an idea of a theme that would be useful for me to start off with? I want to change a lot of things on the phone, so the more intricate the theme is, probably the better.
Also, on a side note, if I remember correctly this thread had 3 pages before the site went down. I'm not sure why it was truncated. If any mods know why, please let me know.

We lost about 2 days posts when the site crashed
i used a theme called blue echo to learn where most things go. and in his rom there is a great vending apk that has the market themed as well. then i took a dialer from one of godzen's and moved it all to compare to my stock 2.1 files and made it work with a rom i am currently running. im just now getting into looking at the apps like clock etc but that was a good start for me since there is alot covered there.
OK, let me ask you this. It'll clear up some things I need to know on compatibility. What makes a theme compatible with one ROM and not another? Likewise, what makes an app compatible with one ROM and not another? Is it the structure? If so, how? I'm a computer programmer, but even though android phones are quite similar to a Linux system on a PC, I'm still not sure if I understand the compatibility issues behind themes.
Also, just so I don't have to post again to ask this in case it's relevant, are Blue Echo and GodZen's dialer compatible with NFX? I downloaded them, but it never said anything about NFX. Is NFX similar to Sprint's 2.1 in the sense that it will run any themes I make for NFX?
well the Rom im using is mostly stock so the framework and htc.resource files are the same. for say CM6 (and i havent looked into it just a example) may have say the status bar grey and i want black. in the stock i would change the statusbar_bkg file in the framework.apk folder but in CM6 it may be in the same plae with a different name or the same name in a different place or just non existent all together. as for if they are compatible the only way to know is to try. the only way to know for sure is to open them compare and replace what you need in the correct order. also i use metamorph to apply themes. you can find it in the market. but the Vending.apk theme must be pushed with adb for some reason or it will crash the market.
matter of fact now that i think of it, the Rom im using is about to incorporate NFX. go here and you an see my post where i put what i transfereed over and they should work as i think NFX is mostly a stock (so to speak) Rom.

You are using a Hero, right? Not a G1? That would explain the boot loop issue you had with NFX.
NFX-HERO was listed in the Hero ROMs section. You sure it's only for G1? Would another phone's ROM actually even flash to a different phone properly? I mean it works, but with boot loops.
Yes they will but may it may not work. And I'm sure that Rom is for a hero and I would flash over and look for myself but I have been threw like 5 Rom's today and just got it back normal lol.

OK, so today I had a chance to wipe and flash the NFX-HERO ROM again. Now the phone seems a bit more stable. I can boot it and it boots all the way up fine and I can click "Shutdown Phone" and have it shutdown without freezing and rebooting, but now right now I've spotted only one flaw. When I use the phone in disk drive mode, but then pull the USB out of the phone without switching it back to charge only, and it freezes and reboots on me. (This happened last time.) I've also noticed that the phone gets increasingly more unstable as time goes on, so I wouldn't doubt that it would do this even more later on.
Correction, no matter what I do, to remove the USB when I use it as a disk drive, the phone freezes and reboots.
Update again: I decided to use RegawMod instead. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=661991) It's super fast, no bugs from what I can see, highly compatible, and it looks slick! I even used a mod to turn my dialer pink. lol I can see this being my ROM of choice for a long time. The only thing I didn't like was that it was lacking the Google Navigation tools, so I installed GoogleApps.apk (If you're looking for this file, just Google GoogleApps.apk) from another ROM and rebooted me phone (So it would show up) and then it worked just fine. I'm not sure why it isn't showing local listings for destinations first, but that may be just because it didn't catch the GPS location right off the bat. I did set my location settings to being shared.
There is a pink theme in 2.1 catalog if i remember right. If you like pink that might be a good start for you to move the files around to see how they are built.

Haha... I see how that can be misinterpreted.
Yeah, NFX is a Hero ROM, I was asking if you were trying to flash it on a G1, because if you were, it wouldn't work.
I like Regawmod 2.1. Fast with a nice dark theme. Based off of damage control. Just my two cents.

Hello there everyone. I have many widgets that I use on my device, and each of them come with different sizes. Because of that, it takes forever to scroll through all of them, even when in reality, I only have 20 different ones in total (But if each has 10 sizes, it adds up...) I found an app that combines them, but it requires root. (Or does it? Here.) I believe that Cyanogen does this on it's own, but I don't want to root my phone or change ROMs because I would be unable to pay for a new phone if something were to go wrong, nor do I have a spare to get me by if it was bricked. I know apps like WidgetLocker override stock apps without root, is there a way to do that with the widget selector?
Also, is the selector a function of the launcher, not the operating system? I'm using GoLauncher if that makes a difference.
Thank you very much.
So it is not possible to achieve the picker I want without root?
In that case, is there a foolproof, 100% successful way to root and change roms? All of the ROM threads I see have endless posts of bugs, things not working, and bricked phones. They also throw around lots of terms (Like flash this... But to where?) without explanations for noobs like me.
Can anyone help me out?
Hi there,
Think you can try Golauncher Pro, it let's you to custom the number of icon you can put on the home screens (default 4 by 4 ) and also lets you to resize the widgets.. hope that's what you are looking for.

Hey dudes and girls!
I've had my Xperia Play for almost 6 monts now, but It's starting to get pretty boring. I actually don't play that much like I did in the beginning.. and there are no "super cool" games, that I first thought when i saw the phone.
First, I looked at the Blackberry, because I love the design and the keyboard, but I hate blackberrys os. Lack of good apps ect ect. Then I found HTC Chacha. The perfect combination between Blackberry's design and Androids OS, perfect!
So, as the topic says, I get my phone in 2-4 days. I'm no noob when it comes to Android, but I still wanted to make this thread. And I have made a little list that I thought someone could help me with.
1) Which launcher works the best IYO? I want one with the dock on the bottom
2) Which apps works great?
3) Which apps doesn't work? (I know the phone is to weak for most games)
4) Any app recommendation?
5) Any good themes?
6) Where do I get the best quality wallpapers for the screen resolution?
7) How about root? I know that the phone doesn't have much memory, so I need to install apps to the SD card. Is that possible on this phone?
8) others - tips, trix, things I have to know about?
Thank you so much!
1)GO Launcher EX -> IMO. ADW, Launcher Pro are also viable choices. Afaik there is no launcher that has the dock on the bottom - landscape issue.
2+3)Check Themes&Apps section. There are few threads around there.
4)Your call.
5)Launcher themes or custom ROM themes. Or UOT.
6)Google Images?! 480x320.
7)Unlock bootloader, su, CWM, busybox and A2SD. That's about it. Or use a custom ROM.
8)Check the guide in my sig for stuff that you may already know.

Will rooting the Chacha mess up the Scandinavian letters Å, Ä and Ö?
Because I really need them to.. you know.. write haha.
Btw, I just wanna root (so I can delete bloatware), no fancy pancy ROMS or such, just regular ROOT
Just got my 7.0 Plus P-6210, rooted it, and now I'm looking for "stuff" to do. I'd like to get themes, I'd like to use the LumTec clocks so I'll need Crazy Home (having trouble finding a compatible version), and whatever else 'cool' I can do. I use this for work and pleasure so I don't want to actually launch nuclear missiles, just up the alert level from time to time. Any ideas?? (And, for you flamers, Yes, I have been looking at the forum, FAQs, etc. as well Multiple sources are always good!)
Welcome to the gt+ forum. You can start by personalizing the user interface. I find the touch wiz to be quite dull. I am using Go Launcher Ex, there are plenty of themes and personalization that you can play with.
On the developer side, not much you can do, very few devs have dedicated time to our beloved tablet. You can install cwm version from Gary, and try a couple kernel setting to both overclock and undervolted your beast!
Have fun...

I'm a fairly new owner as well. So far I've played around with different interface options and so far I really like GO Launcher HD, Widget Locker for the lock screen, and minimalistic text for weather / clock / system info widgets.
There were several helpful threads in the Android Theme forum.
