If it really works and does the things it was designed for, I will never, never install this.
Would be the final surrender and is a perversion of Android.

This does not work for me. I uninstalled FB and FB messenger, installed the 3 APKs found on that site. Logged in to FB and FB Messenger but there is no "Enable Facebook Home" option in the FB app settings. If i choose to use the FB Home launcher, i get a black background with the little circle icon with my FB display picture in it.
the resolution on our phone is 1280x800 is it not? that website lists the max res that is compatible as 1280x768.
Edit: This is on a Samsung JB DXLSE rom, maybe you will get a different result on a non-touchwiz rom

Worked for me... and I uninstalled it just 3 minutes ago Just wanted to see whether it did work. I get my FB picture in the middle and when I drag it I get a camera on the left (Doesn't work?) apps at the to along with status updates and on the right I forgot... either way it is now uninstalled.
Oh, and I was on Asylum CM10.1

I guess you need facebook camera app. Black screen for me but now works fine! Anyway ive uninstalled it because i dont want friends or unknow people as my wallpaper... the idea was great but... it's not what i want

I really don't see the point of the Facebook app. It's like going back in time, as you lose the flexibility of the Android OS, without any widgets or customization of the home screen. Does anyone else see any use for the Facebook app?
4.1.2 JB LSZ Union ROM v5, KSO Modem, speedmod K-5 kernel, Carrier: AT&T (US)

Don't work for me
The facebook app provided just gives me 'error try logging in again later' message. I tried the facebook app from play store but there is no option to enable facebook home.
Stock LSZ (rooted)
Edit : just read somewhere that facebook has just blocked the dev version of facebook!

same here when "error try logging in again "

They need to fix the FB app, not create a new one. When you use Facebook Home, it feels like using iOS, really fluid... but when you use the Facebook app, looks like a primitive java app, even the Facebook for every phone JAR its better than the stock android app....
Sorry my bad english

Can't see this catching on for more than five minutes while people test it out, the reason I use Twitter over Facebook is so I can choose which pictures I want to have rammed down my throat, Facebook is ok, but it really depends on your friends and what causes, situations and inane conversations they choose to share, and to have that plastered all over my home screen instead of my 3d fish or some other funky live wallpaper, with widgets that feedback up to date information is beyond me.

Facebook Home really sucks bad! I'm never going to use it. All I see is memes and funny pictures on my lock screen. And most of all, FB Home is such a battery hog!

after installing facebook home, it is mandatory to reboot, but will not work
used for 5 minutes and then took off yesterday, is slower than normal application

froyo 3d gallary portd for android 2.1

hi guys.i am new to xda.but I brought an gift to all the people who are using android 2.1 aka eclair.if you like the gallary in froyo there is a perfect way to use it on eclair.i ported the 3d gallary in froyo to eclair.but theres a main point to remember it works only if ur mobile supports multi touch otherwise it will be just like 3d gallary on 2.1.
you can follow me on twitter at wiineeth
all of you can download my app from the website given below and enjoy froyo gallary

doesn't work... tried to install and got message "application not installed". I'm using HTC Hero.
This gallery is not from Froyo, it is a dump from Nexus One ROM...
btw: run on Desire
it runs on my htc hero (cronos droid 1.7) though the Gallery3d icon isnt showing.
why didn't it worked on ur device.
it worked perfectly on my desire.
sorry in the hurry I didn't kept the icon
THis version of Gallery3D ROCKS! the only thing I personally would like fixed is the Gallery Icon itself. If that can be fixed, this will be the perfect Gallery 3D
Moguledyouth thank you .
I wantedly kept the icon,
because you would be confused between two gallary images will be same
I removed my other version, this is the only one I need, is there any way you could do an alternate version with the correct icon? I use ADW Launcher and with it I can have Icons without labels on my home screens, so the visual image is clutch.
sorry Moguledyouth
I don't have enough time.
I like different.
I don't like to keep icon because every one does.
I would recommend you to use zeam launcher.
you can follow me on twitter at wiineeth.

Working on my acer liquid, only issue is that it keeps saying "loading" "loading albums and photos" even though every image and album has already been loaded.
Hey there,

hey guys despite of some bugs I hope all of u liked my app.i noticed that the open home,a home etc., home replacements which changes the icons of apps had recognized my froyo gallary app as the main app and changed the icon of my app.
so if you don't like the icon of my app then you should have open home a home etc .
to get any app for free you can email me

alright then I will just have to try and figure out how to fix it myself, since it's the only thing that's out of place, I wouldn't even mind if say you inverted the gallery pic, but whatever that icon is, it's not a photo / graphics icon at all and that's what really annoys me.

Gallery3D Froyo Port
Ok people, since I personally didn't like the non descript icon for this version of Gallery3D I went about changing it, and for anyone who already has a version of Gallery, I went ahead and inverted the Icon for this one. I think it looks kind of cool, I hope you enjoy this little mod and please thank the original op, who made this possible. Camera does work with this one too. Just push it to /system/app.

sorry Moguledyouth,
it will not work
will not work with evo
Well, it won't install on my Galaxy S . My system partition is write protected, still searching for a way to change the permissions.
Quite new in the android scene, just got my Galaxy S a few days ago . It's rooted and i've installed a new firmware, but i can't wait to get my hands on froyo. Very nice gallery, if it would only install...

AOKP/ICS Tips and Tricks/Mods and Themes

Hey all. Been loving the ICS Roms for our phone and have been doing some research into themes and mods for us. Since there wasnt a thread I figured we could put everything we find here so we can keep each other aware of whats available. Big thanks to all the Devs for making all this possible!
Themes:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/15092-invertedtotally-inverted-gapps-updated-2-11-404-gmail-and-talk/
Inverted Gapps.
I have tested and have working: Music, Voice and Market.
Gmail did NOT work for me. Actually made app disappear.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467139
ICS flavored Apps.
I have only tested and used MMS (IMO the icon itself is worth using it)
I tried the ICS icon sets but they did NOT work on Apex launcher. They work if u use Nova launcher.
Tips and Tricks:
Swiping notifications away in pull down drawer
Flying ICS Android screen. Go to system settings/about phone/keep tapping the Android version. Hold down screen on Icon to change.
In browser address bar type in "about:debug" (w/o "). This adds Debug option in browser settings. Under those settings you can change UAString to Desktop for browsing.
Hold Home key to get recent apps. Swipe left or right to remove them.
Reserved? 10char?
Facebook Contact Pictures
A fix for facebook not syncing pictures with contacts is to download the free app from the market called SyncMyPics. It works like a charm!
Thanks I was wondering how to get to recent apps!!!!
Running build 27 for 1 day. Power amp freezes up a lot. Netflix has audio only and word with friends works but likes to be hang a lot. Most everything else working good

Uninstalled Facebook, my SGR transformed!

Hello, I read this forum daily but not participate very often.
Two days ago I uninstalled facebook because with the latest update its camera process would always stay open in the background, no matter what I did.
Since then my Galaxy R transformed, it is like I got a new phone, there is no UI lag, all aplications' effects work perfectly and fast, apps open instantly etc.
I was really surprised by the difference so I thought to share it with you.
That's Facebook for you , stays in the background so you can receive notifications from them .
You can also try force app close with Settings > Development > Stop app via long-press . Tick that and you can now close any app just by holding the Back button .
The iPad 2. Revolutionary. (jk)
No I don't care if you're anti-Apple.
I had completely turned off notifications and synchronization for the facebook app. Most task managers showed it as closed, yet I could see from time to time that it used system resources through BetterBatteryStats.
The thing is that it didn't just use memory, it made any non OpenGL animation on my phone slow.
Opening the drawer of GoLauncher? Slow as hell. Opening the weather of beautiful widgets? Slow as hell. Browsing photos through QuickPic gallery? Slow as hell compared to the stock gallery.
In the stock camera app, whenever I pressed a setting, the transparent menu with the available options would take 3 or more seconds to appear.
Since I uninstalled the Facebook app all these lags are completely gone.
I haven't seen a difference in battery though. It is just like facebook was keeping a hardware resource for itself, not letting other apps use it.
PS. The setting about closing apps with long press isn't available on the stock ROM. I think only CM has it.

List of apps i can safely remove or freeze.

Hey Community,
I been searching for the past 3 days on this forum. Can someone tell me or direct me to a list of apps that are safe to remove from the HTC One S...
THanks
Pretty much anything you want as long as you don't remove core asps that you need for your phone to function.
For example, I remove the stock browser, live wallpapers and wallpaper picker, picasa uploader, some of the gapps, and any launchers I don't use.
Just don't delete system ui or anything like that lol

If it helps, I've disabled these apps (running stock unrooted by the way):
411 & More (T-mo service)
Access T-mobile
Bonus Apps
Friend Stream
Friend Stream Lock screen
Friend Stream Widget
Game Base
Google Play Movies
Google+
Lookout Security
MobileLife
More for Me
News & Weather
Polaris Office
Slacker Radio
Stock Widget
Stocks
Stocks Lock screen
T-mobile Mall
T-mobile TV
Twitter
Twitter for HTC Sense
Twitter Widget
Watch
Watch Widget
Weather
Weather Widget
Zinio
You can probably safely remove these as well, but disabling them is just as good. The apps don't start, and it doesn't drain my battery like task killers would (services start and restart; disabling in ICS keeps them off)
Does anyone know what the screen shot apk happens to be? I keep on deleting a particular apk which kills the screen shot ability

Are you getting system-wide, permant lag and have Google+? Look here.

I use auto upload when WiFi+charging, great for our phones with limited storage, So I rely a lot on Google+ auto backup photos. I delete pictures from my local album to free space, but...
When I am browsing my photos through Google+, I CANNOT swipe left or right to go previous/next picture. If I do that, when I leave the app, my phone gets extreme lag, especially in home screen and notification drawer. I even thought this was some CleanRom related bug, but I'm using stock rooted and the problem is still there. I also thought this could be a Sense Launcher bug, but even with Nova launcher it happens.
Anyone else having this issue? I bet there a lot of people experiencing this.. It took me a while to figure out what was causing it, but it's very simple: Just open a photo on Google+ and swipe left or right to go the next/previous pic. Your phone should lag like crazy until you reboot it.

I get the lag too. I usually get it after closing YouTube, I also did the photo swiping you mentioned and was affected as well. Are you using the elementalx or bulletproof kernels?
Using stock rooted rom and kernel. I used to get similar slowdowns on ElementalX kernel, but I could never find the source. In this case I was able to nail it down, and I haven't experienced lag from other apps.

Honestly unless your a huge fan of Google plus I would recommend using drop box (which has the same feature) .
(Especially since it seems like Google plus failed to take off)
+ drop has integration to backup stuff from quite a few apps (fuelio & tibu for example)

I have used dropbox and box extensively before trying Google+ photos. What makes Google+ more attractive to me is that uploads at standard(but still high) resolution are unlimited. It also uploads my videos in HD, also unlimited.
It's not all about storage(I have a 50gb box account). When I actually want to view or download my photos , Google+ is much, much MUCH faster to load. Dropbox and Box are super slow to load, and they also don't sort my pictures by date. Google+ even highlights what it thinks are the best pictures from any given day, enhances them to make them look better and it even creates animations out of my burst shots.
For photo storage, Google+ is so much better, there's just no contest.
