WM6 - how to get the pretty top-level screen?

I keep seeing you guys with the big digital clock on the home page....
Ok, ok, what am I missing? I grabbed one of the WM6 ROMs here, flashed it, it works fine, got my apps reloaded, all is good - but I can't figure out how to get the top level page to look any different than what I had for WM5!
I must be missing something stupid...... a quick pointer please?

Your rom probably wasnt cooked with that application. It is called HTC HOME and you can download it as freeware, just search the forums for it. But first if you haven't already done it, go to settings, today, and items and check if htc home is listed, if it is then just check it and apply the settings.

How do you change the default dialer picture?

I loaded the following dialer "DarchVader_Dialer_DamagedTrev.zip" and it has a goofy picture of Homer as the default pic. Does someone else have another "black dialer" or stock dialer or way to simply change the default picutre?
Thanks!

Click on the theme in my signature and scroll down to the bottom of the first post. There are a couple of black dialers to.choose from. Always nandroid first. Let me know if that works for you.

Actually, darchvader might be based on a legend Rom...(im not sure)....if it is than my zips wouldn't work. Either way, nandroid.

Actually it is. I made it for Legend, and Treve ported the dialer for sprint based Roms without changing the picture. If you want to get rid of Homer I posted a phone.apk, but that got erased with the rest of the theme thread. Or you can replace him yourself. The picture is in Phone.apk and its called phone_default_icon_png. You can change it to whatever you want as long as its in reasonable standards(meaning sizes).

Thanks for the assistance. Actually when it came to replacing it... I struggled to think of what I really wanted. I threw this together as a temp replacement. Piece of cake to do after your help.
Thanks!

Can someone tell me what notification bar icon is...

... the one that shows after an app has been installed from the market succesfully. I believe stock shows it as a down arrow on top of a couple of lines. Some ROMs show the Android Market symbol. Myn's latest twoPOINTtwo has this big, plain oversized checkmark and I'm trying to replace it... but I cannot find out which one this is for the life of me...
Thanks for your help.

I don't remember the exact name of it, but its in the Vending.apk not the framework. Shouldn't be too hard to figure out.

Ahh.... I see. Thanks for that - I should be able to find it now. I've been sifting through the framework and resources APKs forever!

If you are tlaking about the download arrow

, that is in framework-res.apk

Not the actual downloading arrow (or series of them) but the icon that remains there after the download has been completed and the app is installed.
I just found it, thanks to the above help. It's called "stat_sys_install_complete.png" and was located in "system\app\Vending\res\drawable-hdpi". I would never have looked there.
Related question - in cases like this, is there an easy way to just replace this single icon? Like maybe with root explorer or does it require a full out replacement in the APK package and complete reflash? I really don't feel like reflashing the entire ROM just for a few changes like this and would rather just make a mental note to repackage future ROMs.

Ninjamorph should do it

[Q] Change screen rotation delay in ICS?

(I am on the unofficial CM9 release)
Is this possible? I know the delay was set by Google to keep the screen from rotating when you don't want it to, but it doesn't bother me if it rotates on accident- and if it did bother me I'd just turn off auto-rotate. I'm not looking to speed up the animation, I want to remove or shorten the screen rotation delay. All I can find on Google is people misunderstanding this request, people saying "GOOGLE MADE IT AS A FEATURE I DON'T SEE THE PROBLEM" and people saying "AOKP ROM lets you change it" Okay well, how did the creator of the AOKP ROM do that? What file needs to be changed to modify screen rotation delay?
Thanks.
P.S: I'm not an idiot when it comes to modifying Android, I'm hardly versed in it, but I'm confident with what I do. I'm not some random idiot.

you need to change framework parameters. you can either change the SETTLE_TIME_MS= in the framework (see http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=24869) and compile the rom from source,
or try to decompile framework and change with the method in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1413304 which may work for ics.
both are somewhat time consuming to do though... so people would rather recommend you flash an aokp rom.

Well I'm not too keen on compiling a whole rom lol so I tried the framework.jar edit. I followed the directions exactly and when I rebooted I got the "Android Optimizing" like it does after an OTA and... No change.
Is the feature a default AOKP thing? Cause if it is I may have to check out the Uniporn rom.

In the unicorn Rom control setting at the bottom of general ui is rotation delay. I don't recall if cm9 has same option

Thanks for the help guys, looks like I'll be flashing UNiPoRN. Hopefully I'll be able to MMS with that rom as well.

Put these as your settings it'll work great! (Password is: CINGULAR1)

[req] notification toggles for stock roms

Guys I really need this. I am ex Samsung user so all samsung phones have this. I used to it. There are some apps on google play but they are not good at all. Can anyone do this? For dual sim support. If yes, I can share systemUI.apk. Thanks!

Open the notifications shade and click the right most button.

I dont think you understood what I want. That option is not so useful.

I know what you mean. AOSP has two separate tabs for notifications and quick toggles. Samsung uses an overlay called TouchWiz that, among other things, integrates these two tabs into one.

He mean this one form cyanogenmod.
