Nexus like navigation panel?

Is it possible to change Hero Sense navigation panel ( the one which is in the bottom, like semicircle ) to one that Nexus has? Or even android standard one?

You can change to android stanard very very easy without doing any modification of your phone.
Go to your apps list and select "htc sense" or "touch flow" whichever is what you see and then click "clear defaults"
Then press the home button.
At this point it should give you an option to go home with either "home" or "touchflow" click home and you have default android. But will not have any of the htc specific stuff e.g. widgets.
You can always revert back by clearing defaults in "home" in app screen (assuming you set it as your new default)

do you mean from this to this? i to would like to no if this was possible i think it looks so much better

Yes it's possible to add the Nexus One style launcher. However, I believe it'll only work with 2.X roms.
THANKS TO: REVOKED
Download LAUNCHER2.APK
Then:
adb remount
adb push Launcher2.apk system/app
Voila!
If it doesn't work, rename it to Launcher, and it'll just wipe it over the top.
If you have any problems, let me know and I'll sign it as an update.zip for you.
BE WARNED THOUGH: Due to the demanding graphics, although it strangely runs MORE smoothly than the stock Android 2.1 launcher, it can on occasions cause your phone to SOFT reboot.
Happy to help!

Actually the modifications to Launcher2 to make it work on mdpi devices were done by me... Says so at the source posted by jnwhiteh .

couldn't install it on Modaco 3.2 Beta 5

Thanks for the Launcher2.apk. It's working wonderfully on my GSM Hero running KaguDroid 1.2.1.

No need for that, just copy to sd and install it with a file manager or with adb install from your hd.
To remove go to Settings:Applications and remove it from there.

Thanks

No development until we can figure out what exactly is breaking and we can fix that... hopefully itll fix itself next month when we get HTC 2.1 framework.

I have been using it since yesterday afternoon with no problems (cept when I tried to use the Nexus One Live paper and got stuck in a reboot loop ) Awesome work man, now my phone feels like it has 2.1 on it!

[rom][sense 2.1] Clean Eris4Hero by Lox

Hi guys,
From now all my work will be on h_t_c_p_e_d_i_a, announcement of new roms or any other work from me will be on h_t_c_p_e_d_i_a.
So to be informed follow that thread.
Regards,

Weather
Have you moved from your island to have 0°C and rain? Going to install it, Sense is bloated so it could be the thinner one. Thanks

flashing

What did you remove from this? What's ''Clean'' considered as?

I gonna follow this one, looks interesting!

so is this rom faster than the other roms? ive noticed a keyboard lag which is really annoying

works quite good i likes it
what is new on this besides the pinching home screen which is quite funky
(wonder if apple are gonna try to sue for that)

As it's running 2.1, it means you can install all the latest Google goodies and software that was not compatibl with 1.5. Goggles, maps with buzz , gogole translate with voice etc
Oh, and also - open your home screen with the large clock/weather widget and wait some 5 seconds and see what happens. Took me almost 24 hours of uisng these new roms to notice.

No root

what about mms is it working on this rom???

I haven't downloaded this ROM, but the root problem with the initial BeHero (and Villain seeing as that's based on BeHero) was the su file file was in the xbin folder and could not have the correct permissions.
This was resolved by moving it into system/bin and setting the permissions on it there. I did the same for sqlite3 too in my ROM.
I'm guessing (and this is pure speculation) that by trying to clean the ROM Lox has moved the su file back into system/xbin then installed the ROM without formatting his ext partition This would install fine on a Hero that already has root permissions, and maintain its root capabilities, but on one with a wipe the root permissions would disappear.

google earth work ??

is this something we can do ourselves after flashing it or does it have to be done by the rom cook?
as I don't see remounting happening without root.

For the amount of people needing the fix it would be better if the ROM cook provided the fix.
I could modify the ROM for you but I think that would be offensive to Lox so I won't. You could do it yourself using dsxida's kitchen - it's pretty straightforward. Might need some extra (FREE) software on Windows, but works out the box on OSX or Linux.
You'd have to move that file. Find:
set_perm 0 0 06755 SYSTEM:xbin/su in the update-script
replace with
set_perm 0 0 06755 SYSTEM:bin/su
And then cook the ROM again. Job's a good 'un!

no the SlideMeRoot 5r1 but you mighty need ubuntu that's what i used. first rename the rom i just added 2 at the end
in ubuntu i deleted a fie in the bin folder (logwarpper) from SMR5r1 rom
flash the rom (renamed) then flash the regular rom (no wipe)
note: download the regular rom and put on SD first
EX: slideMeRood5r1 regular
SlideMeRoot5r2 renamed
hope im clear sorry

Eh, don't do all of that. Just change your Theme (press your menu key at the desktop screen, then select "MyModes", then "Change my Theme") to Nest. It already has the bubbles removed on the latest Slidemeroot5, but the theme has to be Nest. You can change the background after you change to that theme.

I only removed it on the Default theme, as I knew people was going to say ( But, I liked the Bubbles!! )

I'm not sure how anyone can like the bubbles... they're so obnoxious. Makes the screen too cluttered-like, but what do I know - all personal preference I guess.

the stock nest theme is in system/framework its com.htc.resources.apk.. you can pull this from one of his slidemeroms and push it to your rom and itll have them removed. If you want to do it the hard way, you pull that file from your phone, open it up, all the png files in it that say container in the name are the bubbles. replace bubbles with a blank icon named the same.

[B][/B]Vanilla Dialer on HTC Sense ROM ?[B][/B]

Hey y'all! I did a whole guide of using the Vanilla MMS app on HTC Sense, it was a SUCCESS! Soo now, I was wondering if someone could see if the DIALER on the Vanilla ROM can work with the HTC Sense ROM.
So basically, I am needing someone to Extract the Vanilla (or other ROM) Dialer and put it on the Sense UI ROM. Somehow, my phone has different settings, so I can do this myself.
If you find out, please provide the APK and a guide if possible!!
This should be fairly easy and possible. Should be just like porting the MMS on Vanilla to HTC Sense! I need testers! Thanks guys!
Hope you like my guide on Vanilla MMS on HTC Sense! thanks all!
PS. Is it possible for Vanilla Gallery to work on Sense UI? I will be testing this tomorrow, also, I will keep this thread updated! Thanks!!
Also, if anyone has CM and whatever kinds of ROMS out there, If they can post their Dialer.apk's or apk's related to dialers/phones that would be AWESOME thanks!

Anyone know how to BOLD the Title? I kinda FAILED at it! hhahah thanks guys!

I will test anything you want i HATE the sense dialer!

I can't remember now, but a while ago I used the contacts.apk and phone.apk from an aosp rom (don't remember which one) on a sense rom (not sure which one either, maybe it was Tainted Vanilla).
You can try ripping those apks from and eclair (not froyo) rom and seeing if they work, or download the old Tainted Vanilla rom (maybe even one of the new ones) and see which dialer they use.

maybe rip the contacts.apk and phone.apk from CyanogenMod-6.1 for Vision :: V6.1.0-RC2 and give that a shot.
btw: you can download the rom, un-zip them and navigate to system/app/ and grab the apk's from there, That is what I did for the vanilla Mms.apk

thanks Wheeliest! You never disappoint me! hah

Also, if anyone has CM and whatever kinds of ROMS out there, If they can post their Dialer.apk's or apk's related to dialers/phones that would be AWESOME thanks!

Cool! thanks for the support guys! A little mistake I did.. i didn't copy the Contacts.apk haha soo if someone can copy that and maybe the lib file like shortlived says! thanks guys! lets make this into a reality!

edited because i found my mistake....also any luck?

Here is what ive gotten to work so far... I found a replacement dialer here http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/59459-replace-htc-dialer-dialerone-vanilla-clone.html
Download that file there then take these steps
1. change file name to com.android.htcdialer.apk
2. get your phone into recovery and mount the /system
3. adb push com.android.htcdialer.apk /system/app/
4. restart phone and your good to go.
be warned this does not get you the stock dialer. This is a clone type app which does look very similar but it has a few bugs. the main ones being it still uses the htc contacts app to add info and whatnot. i will play with this some more and see if i can't get it to work better by changing over the contacts.apk however I see a LOT of things all tied together with sense so i'm not sure how much more we will be able to do. it might be eaiser to just make a better clock/weather/animations and drop the sense ui all together.

My god.
["b] initiates the bold and ["/b] terminates it. (get rid of the " when ur acutally doing it)
