Ulysses S. Grant posted:The T-Mobile G2 has a one-click temporary root app in the Android Market called VISIONary. You have to have USB Debugging enabled to use it, and it only persists until you reboot. So far there are no custom ROMs for it, although some extra functionality is being hacked in through kernel modules like this one. So apparently the G2 is Jesus reincarnated in an inanimate object. Has already been OCed to 1.42ghz

I really like CM 6.1 RC so far but I absolutely detest the stock android dialer and contact apps. Does anyone know of any replacements that are full replacements? Every dialer I have tried is just that, nothing replaces the in call screen.

Casao posted:Because the in call screen is deeply tied into the OS, and it would take a ROM-level replacement to change this. It's ugly as poo poo, the dialer doesn't tie in with the contacts like the sense dialer does, and you can't search by dialing out the contact's name as in sense .

So I have an HTC Incredible and found a pretty nice theme for another sense phone and all I want is to use the dialer graphics from the theme in my current rom. I know how to extract and rezip apks, but don't know where the dialer graphics are located. I've narrowed it down to either settings.apk or framework-res.apk. Anyone know where they are located and which specific files they are? E: I thought it'd be HTCDialer.apk but the theme doesn't include this apk so I'm lost as to what's controlling the color of the dialer (specifically the number keys). travisray2004 fucked around with this message at 21:52 on Nov 6, 2010 |

flyboi posted:So MIUI now has a themeing system which allows you to replace the picture in any apk on the system as well as icons. Pretty spiffy imo. I know it's kind of the appeal of MIUI but is there any way to get rid of 1375 icons spread across 18 screens (not literally)? I've put them into folders but that's still pretty annoying. I'm used to the app drawer.

flyboi posted:I switch between MIUI launcher and Launcher Pro. I like it because it feels a lot more snappier than CM6 and I get the best battery life out of any other rom. 25% used and 17 hours since last unplugged at the moment. Are you using the stock kernel? My battery life is pretty good but I wouldn't say that performance feels snappier than CM6

tehfox0r posted:So I tried out and played with MIUI on my EVO. I liked it a lot, however the battery life was abysmal when idle and I couldn't get used to having a ton of homescreens for every single app I had and I missed the App drawer terribly. I know you could make folders for your apps in MIUI, but that just became burdensome after some time and I gave up. If there was a way to use MIUI and literally have the LauncherPro app drawer icon on bottom dock, I'd be sold. I've even considered putting every app I don't need on my home screen into a single folder and go from there, but browsing your apps from the folder view is burdensome and not very efficient in that small window. I guess I'm not very good at dealing with change This was covered earlier in the thread. I actually asked that question; just install Launcherpro.

I'm using MIUI right now but the battery life kind of sucks so I might switch to a different kernel. My two favorites are Redemptive Rom and MIUI.

Is anyone else getting horrible service with the CM7 nightlies? I went on a trip to NC this past weekend and half the time the signal sucked, there was none where there should have been (travel the area quite a bit), or it would have 1x where there was 3G service. Restarting sometimes fixed it but restarting every time it drop is a pain.

Dirk Pitt posted:Has anyone gone from CM7 to MIUI? This HTC Inspire is my first Android device and I am curious if I am missing anything in MIUI. I'm sure Casao is going to jump on this post and let you know what an orgasm of a rom MIUI is but compared to CM7, it's very visually polished and has a surprising amount of customization options. Gingerbread-based MIUI builds are supposed to be coming out this friday, but if you can't wait I'd recommend at least checking it out.

Dirk Pitt posted:Thanks. I can't really compare the two simply because I haven't been running MIUI long enough but from what I've read, CM7 battery life is kind of hit or miss for lots of people. Mine wasn't terrible but wasn't great by any means. If I remember correctly, lots of people were saying that they were getting good battery life out of MIUI, but to answer your latter question; battery life depends on signal,radio,programs running, and kernel.

Actually while we're on the topic of recoveries, I've always done this for I don't know what reason but I always wipe my phone, reboot recovery, then install rom but read on the MIUI forum this morning that you should wipe and install new roms in the same session. Any ideas as to why or why not this might be better?
