So everyone is wondering why the Nexus One Launcher just keeps FC'ing, and how come the Droid can just install, and WHAM! it works. ANY ANSWERS????
the droid luancher is just a themed Rosie.apk. we already have Rosie (sense UI). the nexus launcher is probley having shared uid issues or something. thats just a guess though.
I think you have me wrong, Im talking about the native nexus launcher not the rosie 2.1 combo
use the open eclair launcher2.apk it works fine

no i was explaining what the droid (themed) rosie was. the nexus launcher is going to need opengl 2.0 to be fully functional. and to get it to instal ur gonna need an aosp rom. we had aosp build on the heroc forum but things went south with the leak of a .29 kernel. causing the drivers for touch screen to not be compatible with anything but htc built and modified builds. but before the .27 kernel came along i backported the opengl drivers from the .29 kernel into the old .27 kernel enabling the 2.1 opengl drivers which are opengl 1.1 for the msm7k devices. the nexus one like many other new devices has a different arch and gpu that alows them to have opengl 2.0. our devices just dont support it. the best lwp we can get are only lwp from the market that are half baked/ home brewed lwp. so yeah ther is a chance u could port one of the few builds that have support for the nexus launcher and other nexus goodies. but in the end it will be fairly buggy as it was on the heroc. ie Eris and heroc are basicaly the same devices. only a few minor differances.

Seems to work fine for me now, with live wallpapers as well
I seem to remember that when the leak first came out there was some "issue" with the opengl that shipped inside of the update. That *might* be whats going on here. I'd suggest looking around for that thread, as there may be answers to your questions in it.

I've been trying to say live wallpapers worked with the launcher2 from open eclair for a while..just not the wallpapers that ship with the phone

yeah the only real issue with the nexus one launcher that we had with the heroc, was the app tray was a little laggy and bothered a lot of people.
the lwp though were just issues with the stock lwp. like i said the ones in the market worked ok. some were a bit laggy though and would at times bring the phone to a crawl. i remember one did for sure. that was the "logcat lwp" i loved it but it was easily seen that lwp werent meant for our hardware.
but yeah i think its possible to get a few of the stock ones to work also. i cant remember what me a maejrep had to do to get them working. but i do remember them still being to buggy. but yeah most of the market ones were ok and would run for the most part fine.

My girl and i both have G1s. Her phone uses DXtop and is not rooted. Her DXtop has the ability to orginize APPs in her APP drawer. I have been looking everywhere and cant find anything that alows my rooted G1 to do the same. Is there anything out there that can manage APPs in the drawer on a rooted G1 running cyan 4.0.4?

Advanced launcher is a home replacement. I'm interested in a theme or application that is not running over my original home but allows the APP drawer to be customized. Besides, it also states that it is not usable with Cyan 4.0.4. Any other ideas?

its not a home replacement like dxtop....it actually replaces the one you have
did you even read the op properly?
I'm confused by myself. So here's the description: u17 ist still the old version for cupcake releases. There is a standalone and a replacement. Both are for cupcake based builds.
Then there ist v2.0.1. It's the new version. It's for donut based builds. And it's currently only the replacement version, standalone will come.
So don't use v2.0.1 on cupcake based builds (like cyanogen's 4.0.4 stable) and don't use u17 or u17_replacement on donut based builds (like the cyanogen experimental branch).

i.e........ u17 is compatible with 4.0.4 but not donut
read the op and use the replacement version instructions to fix up your build

i know what you mean xD
yesterday i spent 3 hours debugging another teams program. they had 6000 SLIC and it crashed on run time. I figured what the hell, im up for a challenge. well the whole program crashed because of one letter
fliers instead of flier
both flier and fliers were valid so it compiled fine but crashed when it was run. the exception being thrown was nowhere near (in a completely unrelated class) where the error was and the debugger on eclipse missed it completely.
turns out, the guys made bets on how long it would take me to find it. (i beat all their wagers. i told them to give me the pot or id report their asses. see, im super productive XP )
because of that diversion, i didnt get my team to finish their project so i made them stay after xD

LOL. Yea one lil letter, number, space, or character and that throws everything off. I've had to go thru line by line studyin everything to see whats been wrong and after awhile everything just blurs together. Luckly I'm workin on a couple different projects that use arbortext which makes everything alot easier. But there's those times arbortext messes up and its back to lookin at the code in text pad or word pad and wow you already know how that is.
UPDATE: seems to work fine for most people by just flashing, my phone had different problems.
it does work with this method when having trouble otherwise: wipe, fresh installation of mcr3.1/2, boot and do the setup, flash the clock. a wipe is not mandatory, it has proven to work without a wipe in many cases now. should work on all 1.5 sense roms.
in every case make a nandroid backup before! then flash the zipfile as usual from the recovery menu, no need to delete anything manually before.
who wonders what this is about, from 0:12 in this video. the flipclock was removed by htc in the 2.73 series roms, probably for performance reasons. since (especially) paul and teknologist have done a lot on the performance side it is worth a try IMHO. so far the feedback is good, ppl don't seem to notice an impact on the performance.

animations are always bad to capture in a screenshot. this is the regular 2x4 hero clock widget with the digits flipping over as animation, as it was in the 1.76.x roms. the animation was removed for performance reasons, but since a lot has changed performancewise i think it is worth a try.
i'll see if i can dig up a video. edit: there you go, about 13 seconds in.

and we still have to wait for long term results, i hope it doesn't drain the battery...
btw, it is still not working for me, dammit!
the latest Modaco rom 3.1, i wasn't getting any lag switching from screen to screen but i did go back to my back up cause it was abit annoying wait a few seconds to know what the time is, i didn't test all my apps lol all i did was surf the inter-web. All i did was to flash it as an update.zip and for me it worked perfectly

i leave that as an exercise to the reader flashed enough today, going to bed now. nandroid is your friend. my bet: won't work. try wiping, flashing the rom, do the initial setup, then flash the clock. and keep us posted
Flashed, clock still displays, force closes when the flip should happen.

this was taken from a gsm rom, so i wouldn't expect it to work in a cdma rom. i replied to a thread in the cdma section pointing them here, my guess would be that the procress has to be redone with cdma sources. i can't do this without having access to the running rom.

so i was right you could check logcat for errors, but tbh i don't think there is much that can be done, given the closed source nature of the sense framework.

Oh my gosh, I'm glad to hear that you're doing better.
Welcome back, Dr. Clover. Glad to hear you're doing better. I've always liked Blue_Haze. I may not use it that much anymore, but it's nice to see the progress you've made on it.
Do you have a theme for 2.1?
If I remember correctly, he put Blue_Haze for OpenEclair on hold until it's more stable. I'm sure he'll step in and correct me if I'm wrong though.
I just flashed this themed rom and i got to say i like it a lot ........ But should i chose to go back to stock cm 4.2.15.1 do i need to do a full wipe or can i just flash with cm updater ??? Also i reverted the ram hack thru terminal can i reactivate it thru terminal also?

No, since this is built completely from CM's source, a wipe is not needed to go back. To redo the ram hack, just flash the ROM again.

Would it be possible to port Pinch-To-Zoom Home Screen Previews to any non-Sense rom out there? I ask because people said that Launcher2 wouldnt work on Donut, and minus the wrap-around effect, it works very well on Donut. Also I believe super D is using htc framework in his latest build, so i was wondering if what im asking is even remotely possible to do?
Lol why would you want to? We already have the preview cards, why would you want to be able to pinch to zoom to do the same thing? I suppose that if you knew what you were doing you would be able to take bits and pieces from the rosie.apk and port it to the regular launcher.apk, and it definately is possible, but I'm just saying your gonna have a hell of a time doing it lol. And your running the latest radio? Since when? How did you fix it?

eh idk its nifty lol, i was just wondering if it was possible or not, since it seems these donuts are mutating into sense/eclair wannabes lol. itd be kinda cool actually. I wonder if anyone with experience would try that.
yeah i am, how did i fix it? i switched g1s lol. it turns out my old one had a hardware problem or something because no computer would detect it for adb, and the radio wouldnt update no matter what even with a goldcard (i managed to downgrade it tho ) lol. i tried to fastboot a radio but i couldnt since something inside the phone was preventing it from being detected and preventing the radio from updating...its been dropped a lot..lol.
Since SuperD already has the HTC framework, can't you push the rosie.apk and use that? You can even re-theme it so it looks like the standard donut launcher, or get somebody smart like ADW to merge it into his launcher for you.
I'm pretty sure that SuperD only has enough of the HTC Framework to run a few things (He mentions HTCMusic specifically so I think that'
s what it is limited to). As for getting it in non-Sense roms, I'm all for telling the lazy coder Anderwebs to get off his butt and try to code it
you get a very similar result when using the almost nexus launcher for donut builds, just long click the dots.

Problem with that (and the way I think he sees it), is that by the time you long press the dots, you could have flipped through all the screens. The dots just aren't practical for swiping through screens. The double-tap is a great implementation in HelixLauncher, but unfortunately, it lowers the response time for singe tap and/or swiping (it is making sure there is not a second tap).

on topic:
-afaik only "cyanogenized" donut roms contain the required kernel/framework stuff to even detect multitouch, so it would only work on those.
-the sense zooming thing is, imho, the standard "preview cards" just laid out differently and sligthly animated, not a real zoom. I've (almost)already managed to do this for an upcoming version of my launcher.
-the point here is to find a better (and compatible) way of triggering the previews. Longpressing is "slow", multitouch isn't compatible/accurate, doubletap can be tricky...
I tried a few ideas, but the one i like more is just tapping the "home" button. Actually it's implemented to "goto your default screen" but i changed it to show desktop previews and somewhat worked (need more time to do it properly).
I may try whatever alternative you ppl provide here.
How about the alternative where you stfu and/or buy me a N1?
I like the "home" button idea. I rarely use it anyway and I'm sure he's quite jealous of the other buttons.

eek! i honestly dont like the home button idea. maybe you could make the launcher similar to the sense style launcher, by replacing the dots with a slider like sense has and making it look like a pull up tab with a button in the center to bring out the app drawer, and at the center just above the button you could pull up on it (like a regular launcher) and itd show the previews...a lot quicker and easier to navigate through the screens than your current launcher if you ask me...maybe i can draw up a concept and put it up here...
been helping my buddy get his g1 flashed with the latest cyanogen mod, and ran across this thread, and noticed his fix for live wallpapers. Any of you devs who are far more familiar be able to do this on a hero rom to enable live wallpapers without breaking hardware 3d in street view, nav, and games?
lwp
when I first did the '3D' kernel for CE1.2, ( based on what Case_ did )
I hinted in the ramdisk's init.rc at what goes on here
the patch does two things
first , on boot it restricts access to /dev/msm_hw3dr and /dev/msm_hw3dc, so only root and the graphics group can access it.
Then, we give the graphics group to apps which have the android.permission Write External Storage
the idea being that Live wallpapers would be forced to drop back to software3d
( we know lwp worked ok(ish) on ramhack kernels ; )
but Gallery3D and most Games get given graphics group ( becuse they have the WES permission )
NB, this will not fix the 'Nexus LWP Pack' pushed from another ROM
only Market LWP will work on cm5 test3

you told him seriously though I don't think it possible for the g1 I my girlfriend has a mytouch 32b which if you don't know is just a g1 without a keyboard and they are very limited because of their hardware. Honestly didn't even find any good roms
You'll either hate me or laugh but what's up with the gay bodybuilder in your pick?
In understand what you're saying but this pretty device specific, so I posted here.

I used it fine on my buddies g1 now, I just want to know if a similar fix can be done for heros.

How is the performance if you don't mind me asking? Did you run cyanogen
yeah, cyanogen c5.0.7 test 5, with overclock kernel, runs great. Gets better linpack scores than my hero. Sadly, I can't get overclock to boot on my hero
