This may be posted somewhere already, but if it is I cannot find it. I am looking for the lock screen from the Moto Zoom to put on my Droid 2. All the Rotary Lockscreens I can find are the lines with the 1/4th circle slide bars. What I am looking for is the one where you actually have to take it full circle to unlock.
First of all, that is going to be really hard to find and probably pretty freaking hard to make.
Second of all, this probably should be under the development section and not themes and apps.
You may like some of the lockscreens in the app widgetlock but none of them are completely rotary (just not a full circle).

Oh yeah, I am sure just straight desgining one would be quite complicated. I dont know much about roms and porting, but I figured since it was stock Gingerbread (Or a stock Moto add-on) it would just be a much simpler matter of porting the code over and replacing the existing lock screen.
And sorry, you're probbly right. I didnt even consider the dev forum. And lastly, I took and look at those and didnt really like them.

That sure would be nice but alas... not true. Speaking of chief_reloaded, has anyone seen him (not literally of course) around here? It seems like everyone has just left the MTS without a simple goodbye. I remember eugene & htclay bidding farwell but it seems like other devs have just left the stage quietly. May be development is halted somewhat because of the MIA 2.2 ota? Any theories?

Well, Im still here (KingKlick quote kang lol), Im still around and I still troll the threads, but ur right... It is partially because of the missing update for froyo... I thought about what ppl would want in a ROM on the slide and I honestly couldnt come up with an answer... I mean, were running an arm6 device... Meaning ports and such are only possible of things everyones seen before... Legend, Hero, Aria, etc... I dont wanna put out the same old stuff unless ppl actually want that stuff... I did that kinda work on the G1 and MyTouch but it seems those roms are outdated tbh... With CM6 available, I see no reason to do a ROM from source (2.2) cuz thats obviously what CM6 is... So im in the dark for new ideas... If someone wants to start a request thread on ROMs they would like to see be my guest... I will watch it and work on such but i think we have covered all the options already untill we get an espresso 2.2 OTA or another arm6 device gets a sense froyo update... Let me know if ppl have requests... Im nt doin much but would love to put something out ppl want... CR
So I decided to start the thread myself and just C n P the post from the other lol... Im so lazy Anyways.... Give me some ideas of stuff you would like to see while we wait for this vaporware 2.2 OTA we were promised... Im outta ideas tbh and this device seems dead... CR
Reserved for list of ideas and requests throughout the thread so we don't have the same things mentioned over and over....
Its not a rom cuz I'm happy with cm6 but I really want rw access but have been too busy to look at it.

Funny that you created this thread because I was kinda thinking it...
The only Three things that I personally would find very useful are:
a CM6 Rom that had the Market app w/o a T-Mobile button (I want the download button), and with a fully functional keyboard Lights/LED status indicator
A nice Dark theme that was comparable to the Stock OTA ROM (I liked SenseUI), Maybe something like the xRom themes from the 'old' days
And, the third which you are unable to fulfill, is the 2.2 update for the Stock Sense ROM
Besides that.... just like you said, your only finding another way to skin a cat..
Thanks for your time and efforts on the MTS
I would have to agree with that.
My vision 2.2 froyo with rosie.apk with livewallpaper enabled and viewable without aftermarket launcher (aka adw, launcher pro, etc...) sense widgets stock framework.apk (possible ability to customize within system settings "not sure if can or not") id like to keep the dps manager I like the ability to adjust the sound. Complete working keyboard and leds. OC, stagefright enabled. Opera Mini as the standard browser, gapps, and working wifi tether (ad-hoc and usb). Market with download button and I think that would about cover it

So once this 2.2 ota gets leaked for the slide then we.can get full root including enlocking the bootloader.
I am loving my slide but man it gets old not having new stuff too do to it. Guess the g1 got me sPoiled .

I like the eye candy of SenseUI, but prefer the stock mail apps (both GMail and Exchange). It would be nice if we had the ability to use either or both. Other than that, I'm not entirely certain what to ask for.
I have noticed that using your 1.35 OTA ROM, I cannot update Google Maps from the Market. If I do that, Maps won't run. IT FC's and won't execute. I'm not sure what's causing that...
I would like a port of any 2.2 sense rom if there were any mdpi devices with froyo sense. Not too worried about keyboard lights as I hardly use the hardware keyboard anymore
But I figure the g2 is what everyone will move to when its released later this month.
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App
Are there any touchwiz devices that are mdpi? That would be a nice port rom

It's kind of nice you made this thread. Ever since G2, most of the people on this board are going to move on. Makes me sad.
This is not a request, or it could be. I hear it's not possible, but I'm not sure and I don't know why it would be?
Everything Espresso, much like your CM_Rom which is pretty much stock, but with additional parts from CM6 and torch, and the ability to change certain features while everything is retained Espresso. That's my perfect rom. Vanilla is nice, but that is so G1. I love it, but Espresso is pretty cool.
I just switched to the darkside and bought the epic 4g. Killer phone and I am getting better service in my area with sprint.

Stock "Starred in Android" Functionality
I really miss the stock functionality that lets you star Google contacts as "starred in android" then limit the contacts display to only those contacts. Alternatively, some way to sync those starred Google contacts as faves would work also.
An updated Legend to slide rom. I'm just saying it would be nice.

Can you deodex the rom?
And how about fixes freezes/reboots from this?

It really bugs me when people say the slide is dead. Go look at the Aria's forum, see how many ROMs and mods they have. It seems kind of ungrateful to Chiefz, Cyan, Biff, Eugene, Dumfuq, and even r0man after all the work they've done for us, for you guys to say our device is dead.
Anyway, I'd love a more functional Aria port.
More themes would be nice, and I'll start doing those myself.
the aria /legend ports are sweet but a more complete pot would be filled with badassery :3

They've all been sayin' it's dead. Who do you think the original poster of this thread is you mentioned?
Some guides or links to some good ones on porting perhaps?
I dont' know to be honest theres not much of a point in seeign diff roms if all that's diff is the apps dir and a theme
I swear that I can remember there being a host of Metamorph themes that will morph SenseUI with dark Rosies and different types of batteries (yes, I know there are lots of circle battery flashes) and things.
I scum through the Hero themes and apps, and can't find much.
I scum thorugh the Eris themes and apps, and SWEAR I can remember more, months ago.
I am I confused? I feel like SOMEONE would have/did make a blue battery/highlight color flash, or a different Android guy when a no-picture-stored contact/caller is on the line, or a graphite/black battery, or clear notification bars.
I see that there are LOT of cyanogenmod themes, and that's super. But although I see an awesome orange xtrSense theme there, I am lost on where all the metamorph themes I remember seeing, went to.
I feel stupid almost, since I've been around computers for years, and spent LOTS of time on forums, and even helping people, and rooting friends' phones, etc etc etc.
I swore I remember seeing a HTC hero theme repository thread with like 100 different little themes and metamorphs. I can't even find that (assuming any of those would work).
Am I crazy? Confused? (feel free to slap sense into me if so)
Where are all the SenseUI metamorph themes? Do I need to try to learn how to make some?
Yessir
I've been wondering this too, I remember before I rooted seeing a picture of an Eris with a black rosie and all the grey turned black. Heck that was half the reason I rooted, but I never have found it lol. guess I got side tracked.
I've been thinking of trying to make some Themes for punk.kaos's froyo sense when it gets stable. I've figured out a little about theming android, (I'm still not that good and have never themed sense, so dont expect much.)
I'd LOVE to have a white and blue sense theme though, that'd be on point.
I have only made two themes for the eris. One I posted on here the other is not done, so I guess that technically 1 1/2 but who's counting, and I can tell you it is more tideous work then actual challenge. The reason for lack of themes is probably just a demand thing. Most people that have the eris have had it for awhile. So they either already have it how they like it or have moved onto another device. I think it would be great for those of us with the eris to help out with theming and developing. With all the hard work the developers put in to the roms the least us as the end user can do is make some themes for others to use and give a variety of option for roms to look. </rant>
I think that may come off harsher then it was meant to when I was typing this. Anyway, if you or anybody else on here needs help making themes, I would be more than happy to help in anyway I can just message me on here I check this place probably 50 times a day. I would love to help some people get on the theming bus and help make some new themes for us to choose from.

I dont think thats harsh at all, its just plain fair.
the handfull of devs here work so hard bringing us roms we never would dream of seeing on our phone, the least we can do -if we are able- is contribute a little time to editing some pictures. it makes all our phones have that many more options. course...lifes not fair
I would love to learn. Where do you suggest I start? I've already taken pieces from several different themes to make what I want. I would like to see a nice sense ui theme. It can be done, shadowrom has a theme that is as close to sense that I've seen yet. They got about everything but HTC Widgets and the real htc launcher. However the themer made an HTC launcher dock background and some blank icons that when using launcher pro is very nice because your icons don't show up on the dock like they normally would. What would it take to incorporate the real launcher into a theme?

Here are some of the metamorphs I think you were talking about. Really the only ones I could find that seem to work. I know there's more out there. Anyone else got anything?
Simple Black Lockscreen arch
Espresso Rosie!
Im tryint to figure out where to find the icons at. I want to change my folder icons blue. Any help would be appreciated
I have a fascinate without any rooting done to it. Now I know there are 2 choices for lock screens and 3 password protected screens but I am a little bit annoyed with having to swype every time I wish to get into my phone so I was wondering if there was any way I can go about using a different lock screen found on the market or such. I tried one or two, can't quite remember the names, but neither seemed to work for me. Any ideas?!?!?!?!?!
Thanks
Lockscreen
Hmmmmm, that is a good question... Unfortunately without un-stocking yourself I can't help you, BUT I do strongly suggest you get your hands dirty. There is so much to be obtained, so many things to be taken advantage of with all the great minds on xda. With just a root and a nice rom you can get any of hundreds of themes. Comm Rom1.3 is nothing short of awesome sauce.
there's an app called No Lock that i think i used to use before i rooted... i thought it was called Unlock, but in the market it's the same icon as "No Lock" and it looks like the app i used to use.
It works as advertised, no more, no less.
You can pay for Widgetlocker, it's a pretty neat app... although if you rooted and put on the new Community Rom, the TSM lock is pretty much the same thing
Widget locker is by far the best and most customizable, TSM IS cool, but nowhere near as customizable, I'd say look into Widget Locker.

I will do just that thank you very much!
I am thinking about re-rooting. I did it once and ended up bricking my phone as I was not as well versed in rooting as I had hoped, I will probably do it when this school year comes to a close so I have all the time to read and absorb the information.
Thanks again,
You guys are great!
well one click roots are very easy just message if you need help

Hey everyone,
I tried to ask a question in a thread but I don't have enough posts and I'm not going to spam posts so I made my own thread.
I'm about to buy a Rezound. I've been spoiled with Cyanogenmod on my OG Droid since Day 1. So, I'm definitely going to be using Clean-Tool or something similar to De-sense and remove bloat. If I read correctly, I just need to install my own launcher first, and then use that.
So the only thing that remains that looks like Sense is the lock screen, correct?
If yes, can I still have lock screen widgets and jump in to apps or not? That must rely on some Sense stuff, right?
Although, I did purchase ADW EX when it was on sale for .10 but the new dockbar confused me. As I am getting older, that change scared and confused me Really though, I just didn't want to take time to figure out until I have new phone.
So anyway, if Sense's lockscreen enhancements will no longer work, I guess I'll just use ADW EX to do lockscreen stuff if I want.
I just want confirmation of these questions I have. Googling desensed rezound on regular and image search didn't really pull anything up.
So it should be here in a few days....I got it off contract, in case anyone is curious.
So what should I do first? I would like my interface to be as stock as possible. When I use stock devices, or one's that are close to stock (moto razr), I have a set up that I love. My Nexus 7 is perfectly tailored to my preferences.
So do I root and unlock immediately or would a launcher satisfy my crave for a stock experience? I also have read the auto wifi on/off feature kills battery....so should I NOT set that up (it's a feature I'd like to have)?
Also, I'm coming from a Verizon droid razr (not maxx hd pro 4 M...stupid moto). I loved Motorola's Smart Actions App and the ability to have multiple triggers for an action vs. just one. Will Tasker perform in a similar manner or is there a better app now?
While I'm sorry I don't have answers to most of your questions, I would suggest rooting and bootloader unlocking (assuming you get the phone on the older firmware that is still rootable). Right now there are no stock (I'm assuming you mean stock Android/AOSP) ROMs you can install, but really, the LG interface isn't far off and is really pleasant in my opinion.
Installing a launcher like Apex or Nova should do the trick though.
The reason I suggest unlocking though, as there have been devs who said they are working on AOSP Roms, and we will hopefully also see some N4 ports.
I don't recall setting up the smart WiFi feature... pretty sure WiFi stays on even with the screen off and I am happy with the battery.
First thing you should do is put a nice, protective case on it!

A week or so ago, I was in your position. I'd suggest first reading the stickied topics in the "General" and "Q&A" sub forums. That will provide answers to many of your questions as well as informing you of what's possible with the OG right now. Armed with that knowledge, I was able to easily unlock and root my phone as well as install TheBase 0.7.3 ROM which, among other things, removed nearly all the LG and AT&T bloatware. I was then able to improve the phone's camera with another tweak, and now have Google Now installed too thanks to xsMagical and the Nocturnal dev team.
If you poke around, you'll see that there's all kinds of things you can do, and the directions are pretty straigh forward and explained in plain language. It all depends on what you want, and how much time and effort you're willing to spend. As time goes on, we'll be getting more and more ROMs, inluding (hopefully) a stock JB one. Don't be afraid to use the "Search" feature. Good luck and happy hunting.

lol... Agreed. Although, I haven't done so...
I'm using Nova Launcher with the animations slowed down and aosp like screen transitions. I really get that aosp home screen feel out of it. Also, trying out status bar +. Really, not in a rush for an aosp rom at the moment with this setup.
If you're sure about keeping the phone I would root and unlock right away. Both are extremely easy. Unlocking is even a one click step if you use the $1 FreeGee app! On that note do not do any At&t updates, since it's been noted that the latest one patches the root exploit. Also, both rooms we have now are working great. I'm on Nocturnal's rom and loving it.
Good luck.
