Hi!
For obvious reasons, i want to switch over to a custom ROM, most likely Z's CM7. However, I am dead addicted to the the SE stock UI (UXP, if you may say). I just love the blue backgrounds everywhere, the messaging interface, the phonebook, the music player and the dial screen, and I don't think I could live without it.
Is there a way I could integrate these UXP elements into a the CM7 ROM?
Can i just copy-replace the framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk and other apks (phonebook.apk, semcmusic.apk, phone.apk etc) into /system/ folders? Or is there any other workaround?
I am wondering the exact same thing, just installed CM7.1 and dont like the dialer at all, really miss the SE dialer and messaging etc.
If someone could assist that would be GREAT!!
Woldbreaks custom rom maintains the SE UI. You could give that a go! It's one of the main reasons I went for it myself.
Try Erickwills EWJet with full SE option, uses original styles, but is super-smooth

Ok i checked the screens & the descriptions...its very much the original SE UI with custom tweaks. One question - How's the camera on this ROM? Does it work normally (8mp/720p HD)?

It works perfectly fine, since it's stock ROM!

is there a way that the lockscreen for froyo can work on a 2.1 ROM? it might be the same as the regular vanilla lockscreen but the froyo one has some good animations and it makes the current wallpaper in the homescreen as the lockscreen one. so is there a way?
I'm not positive but I think the answer is no. Froyo uses API level 8, 2.1 uses API level 7.

^^check out this thread, It is pretty much the same as your question but he is trying to get the froyo launcher on 2.1 instead of the lockscreen.
PS:You should just use a froyo rom, their are some great ones on the forums.
ok thanks i would use froyo but theres alot of downsides to froyo especially on eris

Like what? The only problem I could think of was camera preview not working, but that has been fixed recently.

i have that for 2.1 but i tried froyo and i like how the lockscreen hides the homescreen using the current wallpaper and it has the music controls. also i can add my own message on it
White widow has the same lockscreen it may be a cyanogen mod thing.
can i extract that and install in to any rom?
Hi All,
Since most of us have been moving to US Tmob and GB froyo, the blur launcher has been tweeked and made to work like a gem. It is really smooth and I do not find necessity to go to Launcher Pro.
Walter had previously put out a themed blur launcher like this one for his MS2 ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743372
Unfortunately it cannot be used on these froyo builds. Can anyone please theme the stock launcher please?.
I tried many times on all froyo builds to make the themed launcher work but could not do so. Walter had given a zip file to install it from CWM but that kept bricking the phone and I had to use alternate launcher to keep the phone running and flash an sbf.
Can anyone do that pleaaase ?
Im with you on this one too. I actually like the original blur launcher but it would be nice if you could actually change the assignment of the right hand button to go to text messaging or setttings etc..
Wondering where walter is these days. He can help if he sees this.

I test all of the roms,
miniCM7 2.0.1 with 2.3.4rom is the best for use
all of the other 2.3.4rom have the Camera problem too--vga mode only
But i like the home semc，wich with Stock Corner style。
Hope miniCM7 2.3.4ROM will suppot it.
Like 2.0.1 MiniCM
You know guys, I am using MiniCM7 I dont mind about camera, but if you care a lot about things not running in this ROM or any other in development, you should go for WaterBeARC X v1.0 is a really good one cuz is based in a SE release (ROM).
From what i've seen, all other roms are practically customized versions of minicm7 built on 2.0.1. So there's not much significant difference like in performance or drivers. It's only up to your preferences, which apps you want pre-installed, if you use corner style or your own launcher... I personally don't use 2.3.4, because there are way too many bugs compared to 2.2.1... & I'm not a tester kind of guy - i like to use the full potential of a device, not test & report bugs But what i liked about minicm7 is that you can register & receive notifications about new versions & updates. This is quite good when there are still bugs waiting to get fixed, so immediately after new release, you're notified. I don't know if this feature is also present in other roms.
im currently using srom 2.3.3v1 which is a cyanogen based rom, i think its pretty stable minus the bugs of course.Its got a brilliant user interface though you will have to download some of the apps from market,i gladly recommend it to anyone who has a mini...i hear the v2 will be out soon..cant wait!!!

WaterBeArc is android 2.1, the title of this thread is best 2.3.4
Of course WaterBeArc is stable, it's just stock 2.1 with BlackHtc theme and some stuff like xrecovery and jit
Minicm 7 has been very stable for me, only one reboot in by 3 weeks of usage.

Come closer, I wanna tell you a secret...good, now listen: He was actually more helpful to the topic than you, bro.
And btw, it's not just stability, 2.1 is also fast & has the best battery life. People at SE know what they're doing. You still use in 2.3.4 drivers ported from stock 2.1 & devs are now debugging them to work at least that good as they did in 2.1. As I said, nAa did a pretty good job with miniCM6, but miniCM7 is missing a lot for me so far: camera resolution, auto-focus, can't select cyanogedmod notification power button for flashlight (in 2.2.1 i can, i don't know why) & sensors are sometimes acting weird in apps like compass or metal detector. But definitely from 2.3.4 roms i would use miniCM7, because until now it's been miniCM that's been innovating & other roms were just following the miniCM & tuning it, i think this trend will stay.
Hi All,
I am currently running CM9. But, am facing a few issues. So, was thinking of going back to stock ROM for a while. I love the AOSP look and love the CM9 dialer.
Almost all the stock based themed ROM's are having a themed stock dialer.
[ which doesn't even have contacts list inside, it is very annoying !! ]..
Some ROM's, I see are having AOSP dialler, but it doesn't have the CM9 functionalities, in particular Smart T9 dialler.
In addition, the stock call animation is present. [v.v.ugly].
The AOSP / CM9 call animation is so much better.
Sorry, if this feels as if I am hating on touchwiz, but take this as my opinion and not a fact. [ I love some touchwiz features, which I am not getting in CM9].
I know that earlier the Resurrection ROM was having CM9 dialer, but westcrip seems to have moved on to AOKP ..
So, please help me find out any ICS themed stock ROM, with CM9 dialer like functionality.
this is not a ROM suggestion but...
You can try an app called exDialer and download the ICS theme for it. It looks a lot like the CM9 dialer and has the T9 dialer.

Thanks for the suggestion. But, I prefer using the stock one instead of third party applications. [ Have seen that the stock application , keeps on using the memory, under the system application, and I understand that it is a bigger problem on my older phone, SGS, which had .v.little memory. ]
But still would prefer the stock.
I've just flashed the ICS based, STOCK themed Energy ROM on my HTC Amaze and it works really well. However, it only seems to have the single stock wallpaper for all screens that are kinda' boring. Is there any way to get at least the same few wallpaper selections that was in the original ICS OEM ROM?
Sure, you can always extract from one of the stock ROMs, or just use the forum search feature for both stock and original sense 3.6 themes or wallpaper.

OK, but I have no idea which directory are those wallpapers expected to be. I was in a similar situation with ringtones as the Energy ROM Setup apparently lost the old ringtone directory. Fortunately I was able to force the Sound setup to take one of my own custom ringtone files as a replacement.
