Gingerbread forest wallpaper? - Atrix 4G Themes and Apps

Does anyone know where or if we can get the Gingerbread version of the forest wallpaper ?? apk???

Andrea! Fancy seeing you here. When did you switch from the Inspire to the Atrix?

about a month and a half ago, friend of mine destroyed his phone didnt have alot of money so i sold him my inspire for 300 went to get a phone and decided to give the atrix a shot ..am really enjoying it

Was about to start a new thread asking the same question and found this thread - now that the official AT&T 2.3.4 is out, is there anyone smarter than I who can pull this from it? I'm enjoying the crap out of it, but friends of mine who have seen my "old" Forest Live wallpaper are definitely gonna want this when they see the "new" one!

Soooo... here's the apk. Problem is... I have no idea how you can get it to install. You can try copying it into your system/app folder, but I get the feeling there is another file I'm missing if you're to make it work that way. I'd say give it a shot though.

Yeah, I remember that being the problem the last time.... someone made it into a CWM zip and that works perfectly, I just don't know how the APK is supposed to be placed in the phone for it to become one of the live wallpapers! Thanks, we're off to a good start!

noob retard needs help

ban me now.
i know i know, any hi! i'm new thread deserves beatings, and whilst i'm fully aware i'm tempting the wrath of you all by doing this....... but i don't know where else to look.
i got a htc hero 24hrs ago on orange (uk). upgrade from a sony k850i so i have never had a smartphone before. i have no idea what i'm doing with it.
i've looked but not found a RTFM page yet, or i am that retarded that i can't even find it. what i can find contradicts what i've previously read so i though i'd ask you lot....
anyway - grovelling apologies aside:
1) rooting - is there one simple way to do this, so far i have found 4 processes and don't know which ones to trust.
2) ROM's - finally found out how to get software for the phone-(shouldn't there have been a disk with the phone?) and have installed active sync. i have just downloaded:
RUU_Herrange_UK_2.73.61.5_release_signed_NoDriver
is that the best/most recent ROM? if not, what is?
i guess i dont know enough about the phone to know the differences and therefore where to start. does rooting your phone allow you to get access to other apps like cydia and icy for the iphone do for example? whats the point, apart from to enable read/write access on the SD card (whats the biggest SD Card a Hero will take by the way?)
3) radios? what difference does it make if i'm listening to queen or queens of the stone age lol. seriously, whats the score here and where do i look for noob info?
help me. people with iphones are telling me i did a bad thing getting a hero. make me wise in the ways of the droid.
please and thank you.
Hi mate,
I am no expert as I have only had my Hero a week and have come from winmo. But I have rooted my phone and installed a rom and it was dead easy.
1. Follow this video - http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/27/how-to-root-your-htc-hero-in-one-click/ where he says to unzip or extract the cm-hero-recovery.img file all he means is find it on your pc and just copy that file to the SDCard.
I would also recommend doing a backup after rooting your phone from that video. To do this turn ur phone off, then hold the home and power button together and that will get you into the recovery area, then just select the nandroid backup option.
2. I have used the Modaco rom and have had no problems at all with it, not sure if its better than the orange one though sorry.
3. When people talk about the radio file for the Hero they are talking about a file that enables the phone to recieve the mobile phone signal, it also enables the phone to recieve a wi fi signal etc. I even think it does GPS, basically these can be tweaked to get better reception, thus you can update them. I really hope that made sense lol and hope you get what i mean.
4. Oh and if you want to put a new ROM on ur phone then follow this video - http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/27/how-to-load-a-custom-rom-on-your-htc-hero/
If not just pm me lol.
brilliant - thank you.
is there a list of available ROM's for the hero anywhere and a list of what they do? ie benefits rather than a bunch of files names that have tweeked - they make no sence to me.
i dont know how you'd weigh one ROM up against another, to me it's like comparing chinese and japanese when you speak neither !
also is there an alternative marketplace, i know apple iphone has icy and cydia. i dont want warez just wondering if there's an alt. community as apple have out there (i'm thinking you guys are 'it' lol)
Don't think there is a list of ROM's as tbh the only good one around is the Modaco one. There is an Orange one out but I think people still rate the Modaco one as better, but I could be wrong in that. If you go for the Modaco one though you won't regret it.
As far as I know there is no other marketplace.
If you get into any problems in rooting and putting a ROM on ur Hero just pm me.

Live wallpapers on non-rooted phone

Before anyone says anything, yes I HAVE searched the forums and have read most of it. And it doesn't sound good
Anyway, I just wanted to know how hard it would be for someone to get live wallpapers working on a non-rooted 2.1 leak device. Or if it's even possible. Whenever summer rolls around and I'm out of school I'll study up on Android and see if I can't help out some devs.
You can't do it. Need root. Nuff said...

Hey all, new here i have some questions

Hey all! I'm so glad i found this community it looks awesome! I'm new here and to the HTC hero G2 AND to the droid OS for that matter so i will have some pretty noobish questions , i will try to make it easy and list them in order so if you could please respond that way it would make it a lot easier on this noob as well
I am in the USA so i don't know if that will make a difference but i see a lot of other countries names in updates.
1. My device is the G2 obviously and its unlocked and i use my local carrier Cincinnati Bell and i'm pretty sure my phone is stock everything as far as firmware and what not. I still have 1.5 and i'm seeing people talk about 2.1, some say a message will automatically appear for the update but will it work since i'm not on T Mobile? if not how do i go about getting this?
2. What other types of software are there you recommend every G2 should have or that i can update to my phone to make it better, faster and just all around great, how would i go about doing this?
3. i've noticed when i go to albums for some reason there are 5 different albums just for my pictures which were all already on my sd card, and on my old phone were all just under the same album. The same for videos too there is 3 different ones for those too. Why are they all being seperated and how do i just make one entire album for all photos and one for videos? i've plugged the USB into my computer and opened my sd card and have seen the folders for all my music and photos so could when i add particular artists music on just create my own folder and put each artists music in their own folder? would it show up like that on my music player as being seperate? and could i do the same for pictures?
I realize i have quite a decent amount of questions and i apologize but i am new to the G2 and Droid in general as i've stated and i love the experience so far and i want to gain as much knowledge as possible so big thanks to anyone who helps me!
THANKS!!!

What exactly did you think it was? This is a developer community.. not a help desk.
I myself am not a developer.. I have a very small and limited amount of knowledge regards android.
I come here because I pick things up.. and occasionally when I have a problem I ask a question BUT only in the hope that the great and the good of this community feel like they have time to answer it.
Sure I wish I could be more welcoming to you.. I really do hope your problem gets solved.
Just dont expect it to get handed to you.. for example.. most of your questions can be answered in the hero wiki.. which is one quick search away from discovery.
Your initial question was polite and well formed.. however to follow it up with that statement just shows that you were being very disingenuous.
Again.. I hope someone takes the time to answer your several questions.

I've searched for forums for the Hero G2 and this is one of the only ones with activity i found. So i signed up, yes i know this is a development forum but if someone has the knowledge to develop for such a phone then it became common sense to me they would know answers to the questions i had. I did not mean to seem "disingenuous", its from the fact of taking a post like my last to get a response is why i did so. I wish someone from the first few views could of either 1. Helped me or 2. Said what you said and suggested somewhere or something else to help.
I don't mean to sound like an ass, just would really like help so it would be GREATLY appreciated if someone tried at least :-/
Ok i'll use my first post as an attempt to be useful, if only because i've read a whole lot from here and as yet written nowt
Now, first things first, being in the states do you have the G2 gsm hero, the one with the chin, or the US cdma sprint version? Makes a big difference if you want to do rooting.
Information searching for the hero doesn't have to come from active forums, many were hugely active when the phone first arrived and may not be so now, but much of the content is just as useful/relevant as it was then.
Oh, and i'm neither a dev, or a programmer or a techy phone expert, pc expert or any other expert come to that, just a hero owner that started much like you. Knowing nothing
Regarding the official 2.1 update, have no idea how it might arrive at your device, or mine as i'm not interested. Mine is rooted 1.5 with modaco 3.2 and it works just fine (and stable/reliable) for me, and does pretty much all i need it to do. The only exception being maybe bluetooth transfer.
When i got my hero it was the latest all singing, all dancing device that shamed most if not all other smartphones, eventually rooting it made it better, and unless i get to upgrade it every 6 months to me that's the way it'll stay.
I might go for a custom 2.1 rom at some point, be warned the official upgrade removes that possibility for the future, and even if you don't think you'll want to now, you may well change your mind once you've had the phone a while
How are the files stored on your sd card now? Separate folders are displayed separately. Contacts, downloads, camera shots etc I guess you could put them all in one folder but the album has an "all pictures" option anyway so why bother.
All my albums are stored in folders, with artwork, and just drag and drop into the music or mp3, can't recall what it's called right now, folder and display as whole albums in the player. If i want to create a folder just for one artists tracks then again it will display that "album" separately.
Works fine for me as i'm a whole album person rather than using playlists.
Any combination is possible, trial and error and personal preference time, but you wont break anything by trying.
Finally, have google work for you, or you tube, there's a heap of good stuff around, and more applications than my failing keyboard can mention hence rooting and apps2sd has unlimited my app count. No more worrying whether i can fit in that latest market find or what i have to delete first.
new batteries time before i launch this keyboard.....
Thank you! for someone trying to help... i'll soak all that in kind person, and i have the one with the chin

Vibrant Missing Some Live Wallpapers........

Hi,
I got my Vibrant today and notice it's missing some of the live wallpapers from the international version.
Most noticeable for me is the missing galaxy live wallpaper.
Anyone have the apk for the spinning galaxy live wallpaper?
My Vibrant is rooted.
Thanks

I think he's referring to the spinning purple galaxy and stars originally found on the nexus one. I could be wrong. I noticed it not being on the Vibrant as well.

Yes, that's the one I'm referring to. It was released with the Nexus One and I've seen it in just about every video review of the international version, but sadly it's missing on the Vibrant.
So i'm not familiar with the one you're referring specifically to....
but look in the market at "3d galaxy" live wallpaper. it has tags about nexus one? is that what youre looking for? it is flying through stars/galaxy, nto spinning, so maybe still not what youre referring to.

Yea, I saw that one on androlib, but I really want the original. Thanks for trying though.
I've searched high and low on XDA and can't seem to find it if someone did post it before. I searched through the Nexus One forum for an APK but no luck.

i got an idea, search google for a nexus one, evo4g, or desire dump, then look through system/app and i think youll find it
hmmm, i just googled it, found a few, but not a ton :/
hmm while searching the g1 forums i found this. they say it needs fixing to fit a g1 but it might work as is for the vibrant lemme know
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OULACSEF
edit: this was pulled out of the nexus one dump to be ported to the g1 but like i said i think itll work for the vibrant. backup your existing livewallpaper.apk tho because i think this might replace it.
edit2: nvm i dont think itll replace anything. just stick it in system/app and see what happens lol

Thanks for the link. I put the apk into the System/app folder, but nothing happened. It's not listed in the Live Wallpaper gallery and I can't install it.
Is there a trick to installing new live wallpapers?

eh hmm neither of those methods worked? im sorry bro im no dev but maybe im guessing it does needa be modified to work on our phones but im sure its something simple within the apk perhaps something inside that checks to make sure its on a nexus one and not another phone...probably needs modifying..
pretty damn sure i saw the stock galaxy live wallpaper on a captivate (at&t version of the galaxy s) so maybe a system dump from the captivate?
my roommate has a captivate and its definitely on his, sucks that we didnt get it, it looks amazing

That looks AMAZING
I want it. I will give $5 to anyone that can get it working in the vibrant
In the meantime, check out "substrate live wallpapers" on the market. It's free and looks very good on the vibrant. It comes with several, all of which can be tweaked to your liking. Also, if you don't mind paying $0.99, check out "galactic core donation". After changing the settings and colors it looks amazing.
Well I managed to get the .apk from the captivate that contains it's wallpapers. I tried to install it, but it didn't work. I'm no coder or programmer, so I have no idea what to do. Maybe there is someone around here that knows what to do. I attached the .apk for those that want it.
request
I'm also would like this wallpaper. Sucks that the vibrant doesnt have it. Ive look everywhere for this also. I tried using a nexus dump and the other apk that was posted here but nothing seems to work.

[REQUEST] Droid 2 browser.apk

Hi everybody, im wondering if anyone would be able to pull and post their browser.apk here for me (from fission vanilla and the stock if at all possible)!? Im active in the evo 4g sections and unfortunately, all the sense based browsers are difficult because of one function, PINCH TO ZOOM! Stupid HTC has is set by default(and cannot be permanently changed) to rejustify text on pinch to zoom, which doesnt sound bad, but trust me, makes for an AWFUL experience trying to browse the web. Every time i try to zoom in on a button or on a picture or anything, it gets moved 2 or 3 screens over... I cant TAKE IT!!! so it would be lovely if any of you wonderful people might be able to help me out and ill see if i can get that baby installed one way or another, thank you!
Not sure if the Browser.apk from our phones will work on yours. Try downloading and extracting the apk from one of the roms posted in the D2 development forum. Stock is Blur-based and definitely won't work, but you can try Fission (Vanilla). Might work for ya. Good luck!

thank you very much for the link! and i honestly would've gotten it myself had i realized it was as simple as yoinking it from the zip lol. somehow i didnt think you'd be able to get very far into the rom without it being flashed, but i guess it just shows how much i am at the mercy of everybody here still, thank you again!
