[DEV] Luminosity ROM - Motorola Droid X2

I'm Planning On Taking All The Stuff Added To Affinity Re-Theme It And Package It So It's A Standalone ROM.
Any Questions Or Requests That I May Be Able To Do?

Music mod maybe?

Yes I'm Including The Honeycomb Version.

Awesome wallpaper selection

Figure out how to do away with the international data roaming pop up... and having roaming banner under display turned off doesn't for it neither does *228 option 2....
This pop up happens when I go from verizon signal to thumb cellular signal and the pop up keeps my screen on until I acknowledge it which kills my battery.

I am just curious, not trying to be snarky, but have you gone through the backgrounds offered in zedge or HD Wallpapers? I find 90% of them to be not my style, but out of the remaining 10% I've been able to have a nice small personal collection of backgrounds. And of the 90% that aren't my style, I still find most of them to be high quality and desireable to someone with different tastes than myself.

They aren't too bad.

As far as what to add?
somehow change the dns servers to open dns.
Here is a start.

MIUI theme (like Grey/GingerBlur) request

Since we can't get the MIUI Rom because the bootloader is locked. How hard would it be to make a theme for it?

10 char sucks
You could use adw and there is a miui theme on the market that looks very well done. Also many miui Widgets etc on market. My sexy nexy screen look the same as the pics on the market when I used miui.
From there just mess with settings to ur taste like hide dock bar etc. Then painstakingly arrange all apps on the screen, just like miui the first time ^_^, and backup settings and screen arrangements in adw settings

I meant a theme with a new color notifications bar and a total skin... kind of like GreyBlur or GingerBlur.

oooh thanks. So it deletes everything on my internal SD? So I just need to backup my photos and apps to my external SD?
I'd backup JIC but it didn't for me. Turn off fingerprint unlock till ur set up to avoid issues later ...heard it helps. I'm on greyblur and use adw paid version. It was definitely worth it, and I'm a cheap skate ^_^ coming from nexus and all it's great dev love, I wanted all the options it gives. Screen transitions etc.
Didn't touch my webtop that I customized either ^_°

How do I change the stock (blur?) phone dialer background

How do I change the stock (blur?) phone dialer background? I have tried a few and do not like any of the dialers out there. I just want to change the image file used for phones background because I dont like the stock file is blue with a white-ish center. ANyone know where the file is located?
U have to theme the stock apk. I am currently working on this. I am porting over the extreme dialer.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
You could just use some of the stable ROMS out so far... CM7 from cybik is working well and CM7's dialer is pretty badass.
Can you take some screen shots of the dialer?

Cm7 w/ blue bionic theme
See now that is a nice looking dialer. Thx for posting screenshot.
I checked out cybik's thread but it looks nowhere near ready to consider. I need something stable as I am on the phone/email all day long and cant go with something not semi-fully functional.
There is no way to just change the background image using Root Explorer or something? I cant believe its not that simple.
The main thing I'm interested in changing is the blue background with the white center when showing contact photo.

Lock screen

So, I don't know if this is a dumb question or not, but I was wondering if there is something I can flash that will just change my lock screen cause I'm tired of the lock screen where I just have two options....slide right to unlock and slide left for sound. I'm running Eclipse v1. 3. Any answers would be much appreciated. Thanks

I don't know about flashing to change lockscreen...
but you can try widgetlocker, go locker, QQlauncher, or something similar from market to change up your lockscreen ...there are a few apps available that allow for customized lockscreen ...even allowing u to add widgets or custom sliders to the lockscreen ...
good luck
Liberty X3 you can choose the rotation slider.
On Molten you can choose rotary too.
Ash is right though, those would be the best options.

I just don't want it killing my battery
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
yeah I understand that...
I was also trying to find a way to just replace an apk or something easy like flashing something to get different lockscreen so I don't have an app constantly running to change it...
hopefully someone who knows how to make flashable locksxreens will see this and give us a few choices
ICS theme has a nice lockscreen!
I'm thinking about trying out Liberty 3
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
Lockscreens are difficult to add. There aren't any options for an actual lockscreen replacement (besides using Molten or Liberty which allow for Rotary). Lockscreen changes require much smali editing that doesn't seem worth it.
I just hope we can get CM7 soon...
If you want. Go to UOT Kitchen and upload your systeemUI and framework-res apks and make your own lock screen with the options there" then it will cook you a flashable zip. Its pretty neat!

Magic Lock is great
Magic Lock from the market is nice. they have 20 or so different themes with different locks and shortcut keys to apps while your phone is locked. Heres a screen shot of my current lock screen.
How's that on your battery?

Is the lockscreen really that big of a deal? I have seen multiple post of you asking for your lockscreen. I believe you even tried liberty x and still not happy. Seems like a lot of work for a lockscreen.
Haha. Well it's a big deal to me. They coulda at least made the lockscreen on Liberty more customizable

Just seems like many people gave you options and you are very hard to please. I personally like the lockscreen for the ICS theme. You should check those out in theme section. Then if all else fails start by Google uop kitchen and learn to make your own.
Ive been very happy with WidgetLocker. Im trying out MagicLocker right now though just to change it up. If you are worried about battery life, just stay with the default lock screen. Any locker app will probably have an effect on your battery. Sorry.
the lockscreen is a pretty big deal to me.
I settled on widgetlocker.
Its not as good as CHT & winmo, but its the best I found so far.
Go Locker is one of my favs. After switching to this from Widget Locker, I've noticed a little better battery life. I would try it out for a while.

[Q]Thunderbolt drop down multi task

I'm posting this here because no one in the x2 forum knows anything on this but my friend has a thunderbolt and on his notification bar it has all the apps he's using and a music section to change your songs. Its a rather cool addition to the phone and I was wonder how I could get this on the x2
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
Anyone have any clue about this?
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
Not sure about the apps list, but Widgetsoid lets you put music controls in your notification bar.
If you long press on notifications I should bring them up
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
As far as the music controls in the drop down menu, it believe that is part of the HTC Music app.
As for the recent apps in the dropdown menu, that would take some serious code editing. It is a part of HTC Sense, which is deeply integrated in the Android OS on HTC devices. The best thing you could do is to try to find a x2 dev that is really good with editing java/smali/xml and see if they can figure something out.
I don't think there is a way to port it over, so it would probably have to be built from the ground up.
All the good x2 devs seem to be trying to un lock the bootloader lol

Hubs

Has anyone tried using HUBS for your DX2. They work great. The link below are instructions for the Xoom but they will work with the DX2.

Haven't tried it but it looks sweet. I will definitely integrate some of this into my ui

I've done it. It works pretty well but we don't have as much real estate as a tablet so I only had five screens. I have a modified version of hubs I'm using now. It takes a little while to set up but its worth it. Check the screenshot section, I have my hubs and new modified hubs posted there.

I usually keep my DX2 pretty much the same all the time. Its pretty simple. But I was thinking of doing this to my TouchPad. As of right now I only have one homescreen on my TouchPad because I cant really think of anything else to put on there that wont already fit on the one screen. lol. This would be cool.

Usually hubs includes tabs or text for all homescreens in order to jump directly to that homescreen. I just decided not to do that, to me it looks cleaner and less cluttered on a phone.

Hub It Up?
If your wondering I don't play many games so there's no games screen lol, the books screen kinda took it's place (it's my comic reader/manga viewer/aldiko etc.) also the photography screen has all my camera apps(vignette, retro camera bs like that haha) I feel the need to explain these since they seem odd
Well anyway I basically followed the video on the link you gave to the t, and this is what i came up with.
P.S looking for better wallpapers than the ones I have so if you guys know any that will fit better (both in topic & in size) let me know.
Damn feels like I just typed an essay
