hey everyone.
I worked all night last night to bring this to you.
I am a lover of stock android so i ported the stock 3D launcher over to the atrix with QHD support. best of all, Its OPEN SOURCE!
Some of you may know that this has been done before. I did it so it could be open for everyone, and I documented the process.
PLEASE FEEL FREE TO USE THIS IN YOUR ROM.
it can be implemented in a source built rom or via apk paste
(just give proper credits)
GINGERBREAD ONLY
this needs to be installed in
/system/app
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
apk is in the xda link at the bottom
you also should
chmod 644 Launcher2.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
either through root explorer or via adb
there are more detailed instructions over on the guide listed below
if you would like to port it to another device with another screen size or resolution see my guide here:

--UPDATE--
Fixed texture tearing - source updated and apk uploaded

Had used similar launcher that Dorian included in Redpill. I like this -- clean and minimalist.
Thank you for including easily accessible source and a guide for folks.

adw is cm7's built in launcher so if you drag launcher 2 into a stock cm7 rom it will replace nothing

What method are you using to push it over? Adb? Root explorer? Try another method. Also what rom are you running?
using root explorer say me (if I remember good) ~3MB free of 350MB
BUt my internal memory have enough free space
My rom is the bell rom 2.3.4

hm... its possible the manufacture limited the size to exactly what they needed to put it. Im not entirety sure... first thing i would do is try a different method to push it over. try adb.

All-
Attached is a version of the new DroidX Multitouch keyboard that I have themed for my new release of xtrROM. I am not a fan of white or red and I like the raised key look screen shots below.
7/13/2010 - Updated new file that has a fix for the missing "<" key under ALT. Also fixed the long press on the "(" key. Please let me know if it works
A few notes:
includes fix for the dark keypad number for when you are in a number only field such as blue tooth.
vibrate on keypress has been fixed for Eris (not sure how it will feel on other platforms)
fixed the display of the "&" from "&;amp;" in alt mode
if you long press the "?123" key it brings up keyboard settings
voice to text support works well
[Edit per thenestor]
If you're using a ROM that already has a stock Android keyboard, you have to rename this "LatinIME.apk" and push it to /system/app, overwriting the vanilla keyboard (it uses the same package name: com.android.inputmethod.latinime). If you're using a Sense-based ROM, you can install it like any old APK.
This "should" work across phone platforms and on nonrooted phones however I have not tested.
This is my first themed app so let me know if it works and enjoy!
CREDITS to thenestor for helping me find the keyboard and which libs to use and unknown for the initial pull from the DroidX

I am using zach.xtr's ROM and I tried pushing this (without renaming) and I cannot seem to get it to take. I didn't rename because I don't think zach.xtr's ROM uses the standard keyboard. Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

Just to make sure, did you long press in an input field after pushing the file and select the Multitouch keyboard sounding option?

Updated .apk with dark keypad fix
I have updated the .apk on the OP with one that has a fix for the dark keypad number for when you are in a number only field such as blue tooth...
New version doesn't install.

So far this is pretty cool, i like the new look and the predictive texting seems to work better than vanilla.

Sounds like you are trying yo install via an app manager, you probably need to push like the OP states ..... I had to because the ROM I am using had the Vanilla Keyboard already installed
Im using sense and im not rooted. I installed the original white one using adb push and the original black one from this post but this new version fails

Sounds like you may need to rename this one to be exactly the name of the prior .apk that you pushed so that it overwrites the previous file... or you can remove the old one first and then push the new.

Hello.
Is it possible to port this Mod: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=724778 to our Hero?

Best regards.

I'll be back in a few hours, and see what I can do then.
Hey, I did a dirty fix til I've fully understood how Metamorph works
As always, nandroid/bart backup and then you can do 1 of two things.
1. If you've got ADB set up, fire up cmd (win+r cmd) and write:
Code:
cd \
adb remount
adb push framework-res.apk system/framework/
adb reboot
Make sure your framework-res.apk is positioned in C:\ or whatever the main drive letter.
2. Put the .apk on your sdcard and open up your favorite file explorer, copy it, navigate to root and then to system/framework. Paste it and reboot.
Good luck
PM or quote me if you stumble upon any errors.
EDIT: Ow, the color of the text that represents the percent is black and therefore blends in with the background. I'll see if I can find one with white text.
EDIT2: Fix'd. The new one should work, but as always be sure to nandroid just in case

I'm getting the same problem, I'll see if it's something related to the apk
I won't be able to do a port but I'm sure I've seen it be done for the hero, so I could try digging it up.
EDIT: It could be some kind of limitation in the kernel only allowing the battery to go in increments of 20 %. If anyone got a solution I'd be glad to hear it.

So happy you posted this thread! I'm looking into getting the notification bar working. Right now if anyone needs they can use SMS Notifications and Email Notifications to notify you. They are both free in the market and are customizable popups! You can set the popup background color and transparency! Hopefully this launchers notification bar will be working soon because the interactive bar and popups are real wicked!

Man,I dint use this launcher for about a month because it really slowed down my AOSP Magic rom with Fluff kernel,thats why I dint post themed version earlier.But I read that other people dint have the same "slow down" problem so I decided to give it another try on my Syndicate rom with Extreme kernel(not overclocked) and now this launcher flies.I don't know what made it slow before rom or kernel,but now this thing is fast with no lag.
If you gonna do work on this launcher,look in to this:It installs files(i forgot in what directory) but even after deleting these files and removing Breeze Launcher and NemoPlayer and clearing dalvic cache-after rebooting the phone these files are still there!I think they even come back after system restore,to make it short I think I had to Odin back to make them disappear,it just don't seam right,maybe acer spyware idk.
Ok, so the Estrongs File Explorer kept failing to mount my info or whatever so I wasn't able to use it, but I did get another root explorer and was able to get the apk's moved where they need to be. Problem is...nemo player installed and running perfect, Acer Launcher will not install for anything. Is there anything else I need to do or can try? I'm running ViperRom TRiNiTy 2.8.

What do you mean by install? You don't install the launcher like a regular third party app. You have to push it to /system/app and thats it! If you have root explorer then just copy and paste it in your /system/app folder.

hey everyone.
as with the launcher i have also been working on the keyboard.
the keys are about as tall as they should be on a normal 4in screen.
I also disabled full screen mode. i find it easier, if you dont like it i can post another version of the apk, and if you want to compile it, the change is in my commit history.

Any gingerbread rom, blurred, cm7 and

sorry if the questions are repetitive but it saves me time from asking every time.

Added a full-screen version. download the LatinIME_FULLSCREEN zip from below and install the same way as the rest
--UPDATE--
I need to make clear that this only works with cm7 based roms. no ics yet. im working on that next.
--UPDATE--
fixed autocorrect
fixed support for Neutrino V2.2
i think more languages got added. (confirm?)

it can be implemented in a source built rom or via apk paste

I am not going to write another guide just for the keyboard. because its much simpler. if you would like to know how to compile it look at the launcher guide i posted below and just follow the compile steps and use LatinIME instead of Launcher2

Are the permissions set correctly? What rom are you using?
Still not persisting after reboot here as well. I am on CM9 by Jokersax. Permissions are set correctly.

Ah this is gingerbread only. I could try to compile one for cm9 if you like
That would be great! It works fine until i reboot. Love the larger keys! Great work!

EDIT: NJ pwns!

CM7 is gingerbread, you just need to push it to the system/app folder and set permissions
From the lack of nvidia bootanimations made for the shield, i decided to create one myself.

REQUIRES ROOT
Backup the bootanimation_land.zip and bootanimation.zip in \oem\media\ before overwriting them!
Put the files:
bootanimation_land.zip
bootanimation.zip
in \oem\media\ using your favorite file manager.
Set permission on both files to rw-r-r and you are good to go!
Hope you all like it!

[UPDATE]
There was an issue with the portrait animation (bootanimation.zip). The file is updated and the problem should be solved.

Good job man.
One problem, where do I find " \oem\media\ "??
i cant change permission on Shield (root explorer) and nexus 5 (root explorer) =( -both on lollipop
maybe you can upload already changed files?
ok, you just copy files (root explorer) in oem/media and doesnt set permission and this work!
animation awesome

It's located in \system\vendor\oem\media\
While browsing via some terminal emulator, android is just linux system, use "ls -la" command to figure out files permissons, and use "chmod 644 file.zip" command to set the "rw-r--r--" permissions. You need to be root to be able to change those files permissions.
Take advance that \system is read-only mount point, you need to re-mount the partition in order to make changes. If you're not sure how to do that, use some APP to change files permissions. I think Total Commander app is quite easy-to-use one... it will re-mount partition after changing file permissions... (of course, You need Total Commander to run with root access.....)
Nice, this can be @60 fps ?
Would it be possible to add the sound effect as well?

Thanks for good work, on MM seems to be landscaped again and files path is changed to system\media\
The only game that I saw with a best animated logo than yours is from the game "never alone". Can you extract it?
Regards!

I'm sure it would. Was thinking about it, but from what i understand, it's quite the job. And as i mentioned in my previous reply, i currently don't have the time unfortunately.

This is how the tablets should have come. Nice animations. Look forward to a M compatible Portrait one. Landscape looks nice on both my K and M devices.

The portrait image is of the side of the tablet and it looks stretched out?

Yeah, I have the issue with the Portrait one on M too. Maybe it's just a simple fault in the desc.txt?
@kimern It is a simple edit of the desc.txt to fix the mm issue. I changed it on my own and it works beautifully on the 6.0.1 Vulcan preview. Thank you!

I sent you a pm with links to both the portrait and landscape, I made small edits to both I think, one of them only to change the resolution tho. I won't post links since I have no permission from the dev, and nowhere to host them.
Edit: I changed the resolution to 1200 x 1980 and vice versa for the two files.
