hello i was wondering if there is a ROM that i can run motoblur or the new ninjablur with my evo. i see that its done on the g1 and htc hero but is there one for the htc evo.
Maybe this is just my noobishness, but I thought motoblur was a skin that was thrown over the top of Android. Kind of like Sense. Not just one app but a whole theme? If that's the case wouldn't that have to be a motoblur ROM that has been ported to our phone???
why in the world would you want motoblur?

To each their own I guess. Choices are what make Android great

Actually i just want the widgets that update live like the facebook and all the other widgets. there is a widget called happenings that i like on the motoblur. dont get me wrong i love my htc evo it the best phone out there. i also have an iphone 4 and the evo kills the iphone 4 in my opinion. but i like the happening widget on the motoblur and i saw on youtube it running on a htc hero and thata why i want motoblur. i looked on the market and we cant get the happenings widgets like motoblur. thats why i want motoblur or ninjablur on the droid x. does anyone have any suggestions on how i can get the widgets feature or motoblur for my evo??
I've been using Zipee's port of the desire HD for about a week now but realized I use my camera more than I thought. I really like the new HTC music player and Gallery and was wondering if it's possible to port those over from the desire rom?
Anyone know if this is possible?
57 views and not a single response?? Cmon people, someone's gotta know!
there is almost certainly an official update coming from HTC/Sprint to the Evo that will include ALL the new features. Cool your jets. Do you really need someone to hack a semi functional version together in the mean time?
"almost certainly" is a feckless term when it comes to compaines like sprint pushing out new software developments--so yes, it would be nice to have the new versions on the rom I'm using currently. I'm sure it's not that hard of a task considering the thousands of ports there are from various roms.
Hey y'all! I am new to this ROM hacking and everything else but in the past month ive been really experienced! I got all the software, apps and everything!
I am wondering if it is possible to extract the HTC Camera software, all the apk's and lib files, and paste them on to the stock android ROM, will it work? I have done it with things like Swype files, and further software files.
So does someone out there know if its possible to put Desire Z Files on the G2 stock android to make it work? and have some D-Z features on the G2?!
Also another cool thing would be If I can use the stock android Texting app or texting software on the Desire Z ROM?
Other things that I am thinking about are:
The Dialer
Contacts
Texting UI Software
Also, To anyone that has the Desire Z ROM running on the G2, when tethering, does it only tether 3G Networks? Or is there a feature that enables 4G? Thanks!
So I've tried something similar with the clock widget, but when I tried to install, it failed and said it was missing a certificate. My guess is the same thing would happen for all of these.
Aw man, but some things might work right? what about a stock g2 lickscreen for the desire z rom? i can never get used to sliding that thing down
Eventually, there will be hacked up ROMs with bits and pieces from every corner of the earth - I wanted the same thing on my Nexus (stock with the HTC cam) and there were a few options (though all had bugs here and there). Given the G2 was *just* permrooted, it might be a few weeks/months before you see some really creative ROMs.
Other stuff, like the lockscreen, can be changed with apps like widgetlocker and such.
You should definitely try out the Desire Z rom, though. It's all kinds of awesome, with new features that weren't there in previous versions of Sense. Hell, the camera app alone is worth it - makes the stock Android camera app look like a joke.

Oh I know man its amazing, I installed it a few days ago and I havent even thought about stock anymore haha its pretty great and the Camera is AMAZING
Hi all,
Rather interesting bug here i think in 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3.
We have 3 different Android phones and the issue was first noticed on a Sony Ericsson x10 mini pro.
When i go to google, search for something and then click google images it wont ever go past page 13. I mean i can click page 14, 15 etc but no images ever display.
Thinking it was just the X10 mini pro i just left it until last week me and the wife both got HTC Desire HD's, one on 2.2 and one on custom 2.3 and both these phones do it as well!!
Has anyone else noticed this? Is there a fix for it.
Cheers.
I've also got this! strange
2.2 froyo w/ sense

Having same issue on HTC Evo 4G. Any help anyone?
I have a couple of quick questions about the xperia UI.
Recently, my ZL died in an accident. Due to my location, I had few replacement choices available, so I opted for a Galaxy S4. It wasn't my first choice, but it's not a bad phone.
There are a few things I miss.
First, what is that thing circled in red on the first picture called? It's a launcher of small apps that appears on the bottom panel when you open Recent Apps. Samsung doesn't have it, so I'm assuming it's an Xperia thing. I want to search for an app or a mod that can perform a similar function, but I don't know what it's called, or if there's an app that does it.
Secondly, I was really getting to like the Xperia's "Album" software. I've found gallery apps that organize in a similar way, but don't include a home screen widget that allows the user to flip through photos. Can this "Album" app be installed on the S4, if so,how, and if not, can anyone recommend a good replacement?
I don't think thats possible on a sammy phone... not unless you port the stock xperia rom to the S4... But you should head over to the s4 forum and maybe ask someone to port it for you.... only the small apps if possible! Also Samsung has their multiwindow and all... maybe use that!
You could also root your phone and use floating window from xposed!

Well, my sister have a s4, and somehow i didn't like it...
And samsung doesn't have a small apps, and also , you can tweak your Xperia ZL using Xposed Modules (Need root but not custom rom)...
Like mine, you can customize the status bar icon, battery icon, nav bar, screen off animation, and many more!
Feel free to ask, bbm or pm me if you have a question

You can tweek any phone with Xposed, but why are you telling him that? didn't you read his post? He states that his ZL died and the S4 is a replacement, he's asking if it's possible to make his S4 to be closer to the ZL.
Now to the topic at hand, from what I heard it's a popular practice to port Sony apps to all Xperia phones as well as other phones. So if you go to the S4 forums you should be able to find the small apps as well as the album app, along with instructions on how to install them correctly. Good luck man, and don't be sad, the S4 is a bit better than the ZL anyway.

I found a bundle of Xperia apps and flashed them, and I discovered the apps couldn't start without Xperia Home enabled and running. Needless to say, it didn't run well competing with Samsung's Touchwiz. Touchwiz can't be stopped or shut down. Most of the Xperia stuff didn't last a reboot. I couldn't get Walkman to run at all.
S4 may be a slightly better platform. It's got a better camera, for one. However, the better user experience goes to Xperia. Walkman's a better music app in every way that's important. Small apps are useful, especially screenshot for me. Album widget is irreplaceable. Now I've got 2 competing music apps, Adapt sound which breaks everything, 2 competing alarm clocks, and of course the one I don't want is the one I can't stop...
It was easy to root,though, to its credit.
Might just get a Z2 and give this one to my wife. Are those easy to root? Z2's, I mean?

Oh, that's a shame and kinda weird. I mean porting should imply that they have been modified to actually run on the device.
The Z2 is easy to root with towelroot or the Z2 root deamon we also used to root our ZL. Then again, everything is easy to root with towelroot.
The best music app is PowerAmp, Walkman kinda sucks when compared to that.
Here are the S4 forums, pick which model you have and see if they have properly ported Xperia apps.
