instead of

Where did you get your big clock from?! Can't ifnd one anywheree"

How do you apply a new theme period? I just ordered my hero and I wanted to theme it as soon as I got it.

the big clock is part of Sence UI (htc default interface for the HTC hero)
themes, I believe you need to be rooted or custom ROM then you just apply update.zip of your sd card (don't hold me to this i aint tried it

NOTE: This only removes the modified homescreen and widgets. The HTC dialer, and other HTC modifications are untouched.

best rom for g1 not based on dream or hero?

If there are any what are the names of them and are they fast?
umm, really, the dream based rom is a basic android system, hero is htc touchflo
so you are **** out of luck for now
Not that I know of. What would you want a new one to be based on? I can't think of anything.
like right know I use Hero-V1.4r1 by Drizzy but it's so slow. The other hero roms dont get past the boot screen the one after the g1 logo.
okay this is what you gotta do
1. start phone in recovery
2. wipe phone
3. wipe dalvik ****
4.flash
5. enjoy
****enter this in the console
# mount /system/sd
# cd /system/sd/dalvik-cache
# rm * (removes all files within the dalvik-cache folder)
# cd /system/sd/app_s
# rm * (removes all files within the app_s folder)
# recovery
after doing all that what will I do next install the other hero roms? What's this 3. wipe dalvik ****
doing that what will I get out of it?
Also what is #4?

Clear Lockscreen

I need somebody with the knowhow to do me a favour!
I'm running the new MoDaCo rom for Hero, and I really don't like the standart HTC lockscreen, but I do adore this one.

Can some body PLEAZ make me a .zip for updating my rom?
You can remove "HTC Lockscreen" via adb commands,then you got
Lockscreen similar to this!
Also there are apps at market which can change Lockscreen to this!
Code:
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/app/HtcLockScreen.apk
adb shell reboot or adb reboot
hmm.. app not found?
Nobody..???
Plesse help needed here!
When I adb this :
adb remount
adb shell
cd /system/app
mv HtcLockScreen.apk HtcLockScreen.bak
exit
it says "cant remove, file is read only"
If your on the new rom, the default lockscreen (vanilla one that you want) is broken anyway. I doubt Modaco has fixed it (with all due respect to him).
VillainRom 10.3 however will defiantly have this fixed.

How to get a sick quadrant score!

Hi, I made a little tutorial of how you can get a sick score with your Optimus Black
And this should work with every device.
PS. You need to have Quadrant Advanced/Standard, there is different commands for each.
PS. 2 This is only temporary, so after you reboot you have to do this again if you want.
1. Root your phone.
2. Get Terminal Emulator from the market.
3. Write the following in Terminal Emulator:
su
mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /data/data/com.aurorasoftworks.quadrant.ui.advanced
4. Try quadrant!
For Standard, same for Advanced, just enter this instead:
su
mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /data/data/com.aurorasoftworks.quadrant.ui.standard
I have installed the Nova ROM so mine gets a little bit higher, you can find it in the dev. section.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
first of all, the command is the same for quadrant advance and standard, second of all when i write this one it says no such file or directories ...... and yes I have quadrant.
did you write "su" first? ohh, I'm sorry lol.. my fault, I'm a bit noob so please excuse that.
i sure did write su but when I open data folder with file explorer the directory is empty so....
I don't even find any data folder lol. Try again, if you have the standard edition I updated the command
i had already tried both versions of command since I figured it out that for standard it ends with .standard...same thing no such file or directory
this should work now...
Anyone else having issues with this?
it's working great with my OB.
any chance to have it permanent (e.g. fire on launch?!!).
thanks
edit:
scored 2442
am using ver. V11b

[BOOT ANIMATION] Simple Android boot

Hi guys, I was tired of having a super fancy boot screen and I wanted something really simple so I made this boot animation. It's basically just the Android logo with a loading spinner underneath but I think it looks really nice on the device
Download below!
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

Should work. Try putting it in either /system/media/ or /data/local/ keeping the same name (bootanimation.zip). You'll have to use either Root Explorer or you can use adb using these commands:
Code:
adb remount
adb push /path/to/bootanimation.zip /system/media/
OR
adb push /path/to/bootanimation.zip /data/local/
Hope this helps!

S5830 boot.img problem, can't find .rle

Hey all, my problem is that I can't find the .rle image in the extracted ramdisk. I can find a bunch of things except that , if anyone knows where's the .rle image, so I can replace it with the one I want
Image of what I find in ramdisk:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

3. wrap it all up and flash it to mtd2
Attached:
1. A boot image with these changes made. To try it on your phone, first back up your mtd2 image (the boot image). Type the following in a root shell to back it up to your sdcard:
cat /dev/mtd/mtd2 > /sdcard/mtd2.img
Then, unzip boot-rc29-customlogo.img.zip it and stick it on your sdcard and type the following in a root shell:
cat /dev/zero >> /dev/mtd/mtd2
flash_image boot /sdcard/boot-rc29-customlogo.img
(when you do the cat, it will tell you "write: No space left on device," which is fine)
To restore your original boot image, do the cat and then flash_image your mtd2.img backup.
2. Samples of the raw image as well as the rle encoded version.
3. A nifty photo of this working on my phone.
