AVE...
I wanted to change interface of my Rose, so it would look nicer. I tried recently SbpMobileShell 3.0, but it doesn't work well. I can't see icons, can't use it properly, it's slow and not optimised for non-touch-screen phones.... Any other alternatives for Rose, that work?
Try Facade.

hehe, just read the title.
Suggestion are welcome!!!
Diamond look a like
I know it's not very original, but I would like a real look-a-like skin for our athena's. All the skins are for QVGA and none Athena devices. I know SPB shell has one but thats pure fake. Within Development and hacking I cannot find a working version.
What I want is a lean and mean diamond skinned os with all sorts of applications with diamond behavior.

HTC Home, HTC Audio Manager, HTC Streaming Media, Windows Media Player, iContact, theme, dialer.........and all can be skinned if i forgot things hehe

Hello Michy
I like your XP type style in your roms. Memory maid prog is good too. I prefer a clear dialer, the diamond one is not good outside as it lacks contrast.
yeah but i want a new style...never used before by me
what about a vista style rom? or maybe a .....
humm vista style,yes good idee i think
What ever you do, DONT make an iPhone style
no please, no iphone style
perhaps you could get in contact with Schaps
His Touch experience interface looks very good , i would not mind to try something like that in Athena
also a BT stack that works OK with my mb150
P
i dont know if schaps will want to share his work with me but i'll try.
I like a Vista style too, sounds good!
I would like to see a Vista Style also.
Personally i would love to see a Windows for workgroups 3.11 style just for the hell of it
Yes Vista style
make it vista, but please don't make it too colorful, that's mainly the request I have.....
vista = black hehe...its an idea
I vote for ...

I'm not new to custom ROMs in general, I've had them on my PPC6700 and Mogul previously, but the Touch Pro seems to have ALOT of them. I have specifics on what I'm looking for. I don't even know if half this stuff exists on the Raph800, so bare with me.
- WM 6.5, but only if it's pretty much entirely bug free.
- Landscape Cleartype. I've heard Da_G's ROM supports it, do any others?
- Topaz HTC Start Menu for TF3D, and HTC Menu Enhancement
- Rhodium TF3D (weather fix, again looking for bug free)
- NO built in Opera, or 9.7 Beta
- Touch HD S2A
- HTC app skins (Phone, Calc, etc)
- Non-ridiculous boot screens (which I'm flexible on lol)
Any thoughts?
IDK of any rom that is 100% bug free. but to get what you want you would need to use a kitchen. who is your cell provider?
I feel the same way have a ppc6700 and have used the kitchens on that one but my touch pro I am lost on what to install and what not to I just want to go to wm 6.5 for sprint just like stock nothing fancy but can add later when I know what they do
Thanks for your input guys, I wound up unlocking and giving NFS_Fan's 6.5 a try, so far I love it!
Hi All
Been a regular reader but just joined now.
Anyway I've been trying a few custom ROMs out on my rooted HTC Hero (GSM)... many have some very good things, but many of the 2.2 ones don't have some of the features or apps I loved from 2.1, especially some of the HTC sense, or some of the apps.
So, I was wondering if anyone can recommend a custom ROM that can do/has the following:
- Based on Froyo 2.2 (want to try out the supposed performance improvements, new UI, later version of flash, etc)
- Needs the Apps2SD functionality (I believe all 2.2 based Roms have it)
- I really like the HTC flip clock/weather widget, with the animated weather as in 2.1..but haven't seen it in 2.2. Is it not available anymore? Anyway it could manually still be added?
- The 2.1 weather app.. where you can add multiple locations. 2.2 only seems to have weather/news which I dont like as much.... the option to see weather in different locations just by scrolling down was great. No other options in the market seem to do this as well, either
- In fact - most of the original HTC widgets available of on the Hero I would still like
- The 'Stocks' app found in earlier versions is missing in 2.2. I really like this app, as it's the only one I have ever found that you can add many quotes, and will work well with non-US countries (like Australia/NZ sharemarkets for example). But, it's not in found in the market and doesn't seem to be featured in 2.2?
- I also liked the way that when looking at 'people', it would summarise 'events' like birthdays and give me a taskbar notification. The 2.2 Roms I have tried so far, don't seem to have this same function anywhere..is it still available?
- I also liked the previous 'my contact card' where I could store my own details. I cant see this in 2.2 either is nit now gone? Would still love that.
Anyway, maybe I'm asking too much, but is there any custom ROM anyone can recommend, that is based on 2.2 but still has those 'good' bits from 2.1 or earlier?
Or, is there anyway I can add them myself??
I have checked out this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=889299
and others, but so far haven't found anything that quite has the above...
For the Flip Clock, you can search for Fancy Widget. In the current version, the autohor redesigned ist, but with you can find the older version here on the forum -and it looked exactly like the Sense flip clock! (what also explains, why that version was removed from the market by htc) As a bonus, I find it less laggy than the original one -therefore, it replaced HTC's flip clock on my homescreen
For the rest, I think, you need a ROM with Sense, as Sense Widget don't work on non-sense Roms...
I use fancy widget as well, glad I saved the .apk file
as for the sense like widgets you are better of doing a market search you might find some similiar to them.
or just go install the custom sense froyo roms although the camera or some hardware aint working on them
Thanks, I found the older fancy widget apk so I will give that a try.
I guess I'm asking too much for a custom ROM based on 2.2, with all the HTC Sense stuff still working... will have to comprise somewhere.
I really wanna give 2.2 a decent try but a lot of the stuff I liked from 2.1 isn't there anymore in the ROM's I've seen.
Anyway thanks for the replies!

the fact is mate you want HTC Sense on 2.2 (or sounds like that), which isn't a 100% stable port on the Hero (GSM) so you can have 2.2 working perfectly and use 3rd party apps like everyone else to get the same effect, or you can use a buggy 2.2 port of HTC sense, and live with it until someone makes a good port.
Yeah I wasn't too sure what ROM's were available and what they all could or could not do, hence asking for recommendations.
Anyway I'm trying out a number of differnet ones until I find the best one for me.
Think you're right though, 2.2 with Sense isn't really available/stable yet so I think a non-sense 2.2 with addons is the way to go at this stage.
Cheers
Hi,
I trye different ROM and i think a non-sense 2.2 whith an other launcher (like LauncherPro) is better than Sense...
The ROM TastyFroyo is the faster ROM but the screen resolution is not compatible with BeautifulWidget. (2.2 non-sense)
And the FroyedVillain is awesome too and full stable! (2.2 non-sense)
The ChocolateFroyo is a 2.2 with sense but i dut test it...
You have the rom in 2.3 too!!!
Elinux ROM and TastyGinger are great but still in beta...
i'm wondering,
any news about the green theme "mojito" on Lite'ning ROM 5.0 ?
how do i enable arabic read and write support while keeping Lite'ning ROM 5.0 ?
what is the best keyboard you ever used, in general on a sgs2 ?
what do you guys prefer, Social hub, or another email client ?
i believe ppl's experience are always useful so don't mind me asking general questions, i understand that everyone has his/her own taste, but answers can let me know about new things n have more options, anyhow thank you very much guys ,, and LitePro did a GREAT JOB on this one.
Keyboard choice
It is a bit messy to make a thread with so many subject, but lets go for some answer (it will increase my message counter so I can soo include external links ) :
I tried a few keyboards, based on what I could read on other threads or google. My conclusion is that a good keyboard depends on your style and need. There are 3 main styles: tap, swype or "unconventionnal". I prefere tap. Then there are several layout, some like a regular keyboard. I have been looking for:
Arrows available
Special characters available, like pipe, those in my passwords, ...
TAB key for autocompletion in Linux terminal
I am running currently Hacker' keyboard. I liked Swype (not sure if it was stock or part of Lite'ning 6.1 mod), but it lack'ed... was it pipe key?
I use native "E-mail" I think, white closed envelope with a red @ on it (not sure if it was stock or part of Lite'ning 6.1 mod), I see no need to try Social hub yet, but it was described as an advantage of this phone, so it could be worth trying.
Have fun.
Been using the "stock" S2 rom for a while now, was on MIUI. I waned to theme it so it was more like WP7. I used launcher 7 and statusbar+ and so far it looks great. But there are a few issues I hope people can help with.
The default samsung lockscreen is a problem, I found a programme called WP7 Lock, but since this is a different rom the market *****es that its not compatable. I've look everywhere for it and I cant download it.
So my questions.
How do you acheive a really good WP7 look?
Is there a lockscreen that performs like the WP7 one?
Any tips and advice on this is much appreciated.
