My battery seems to fly out the door, how do you close down some of the running applications? I don't want to download a 3rd party app just to be able to close browser or mediascape X_X
EDIT: Also, I am trying to delete some apps with Titanium backup, do yall recommend deleting Google talk, Play Now, User Guide and Use Support? And finally there is a toolbar that has 4 pictures (one with a dot and signals going up, one for blue tooth, one with a satellite dish letting off a signal and one that controls the phone, what do the 1st and 3rd ones control? I have no manual with this phone.
Edit Edit: (Lol) How do you set .mp3's for ringtone and notifications(and while we are at it custom wallpaper), and is there anyway to change the unlock process of the phone?
Really, thanks to anyone who answers even one of my 50 questions.

3rd party
On the beginning of the thread you said you didn't want a 3rd party app to close tasks. However you should use something like "advanced task killer". If you open the app you get a list of running apps and you can unselect the ones you want to remain running.
Then you get a 1 click widget that remembers that (un)selection, leaving those apps running and stopping everything else. Very useful.
BTW check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=767849
The beauty of android is the amount of nice apps available!
EDIT: Just in case you don't read that thread through:
careful with LCD Density Changer you need ROOT with Superuser and busybox or your phone will brick
So better to stay away from that one.
Ya at the beginning I didn't want to use a 3rd party app to close tasks, it didn't make sense, now I can't get enough of ATK.
I have 2 new questions for everyone.
One how can I access the internal memory from my pc? And 2 how can I change the background color in menus like settings, messages etc. The blue background is super annoying.
[Info]:
Alright, as requested here is a remap of the silly faves button on the espresso launcher. This is from the CR_Mod 2.2 espresso build. However it should work fine with any rooted 2.2 non-odexed espresso.
This will allow you to re map it to open any app installed on your phone, or various system settings, or open a quick launch box with a selection of 8 or so apps. I did this method over on the G2 forums as it is easier than mapping to each individual app requested - not to mention even better since you can remap it any time on the fly.
You MUST have the launchkey app installed. It is available on the forums for free here, or better yet, help the developer out and buy the one on the market for a mere 0.65 cents. It's dirt cheap and it has more options!
[How To]:
Install the launchkey app from above
Grab the attached file below
Boot into recovery
adb shell mount /system
adb shell rm /system/app/Rosie.apk
adb push [your saved file location]\Rosie_espresso2.2_custom.apk /system/app/Rosie.apkReboot
Thanks dude!
Edit: Any way to change the icon to the one of the app, or at least back to the default faves one?
So how exactly do you change the icon afterwards? I mapped the button to the Browser, but it has the standard menu button on there.
Don't think it will work on CRmod froyo because it.is deodexed

I'm assuming find the image in the res folder of the apk and change it to match your app. You could download and rip them off of the 2.1 method. The contacts, messaging, etc.
Works like a charm! Thanks a bunch! I know beggars can't be choosers, but is there any way to set up launchkey so that you don't have to long-press the button?
Oh, and if anyone's wondering, I'm running CM 6.1
For those looking to change the icon, I changed it to a generic one, but you can change it to any icon you wish. No, it will not adjust its own icon, as there is no way for sense to do that. Here is what you need to do:
-Create the icon.
-Replace the one in the res/drawable-normal/icon_add_rest.png with the one you made.
-Push the rosie back to your phone, and you're good

No, this is the same way that I did it with the 2.1 CR OTA. Only this time I mapped it to an app that launches other apps I had started doing individual mappings with specific icons, however everyone wants a different app. Even something simple like mapping it to the browser ends up with 3 or 4 different possibilities because people use after market browsers.

I'm confused here
If you're not on ESPRESSO SENSE, how does it work like a charm? Did you think this thread was about the launchkey app specifically? Did you think I made launchkey.apk? Did you think this mod was for CM6.1?
This mod will only work on espresso 2.2. If you're on CM, this MOD will not work, only the APP will work. The APP (LaunchKey.apk), as is linked in the OP, is made by someone else, not me. Requests to the function of the app may be directed at him. I merely edited the code in Rosie.apk so that it launches the app instead of Faves.
Yes I know, but after I pushed rosie.apk the genius button launches the app I set up, like it should. I must have read the thread wrong, and for that I apologize, but there's no need to be hostile/angered/annoyed or whatever. The fact is, it worked. Thanks for the mod regardless.

Nobody is angry or annoyed. I just asked what i thought were possibilities, because I find it hard to follow the train of thought with out answers. That aside, you are correct this is for remapping faves button. I'm also confused as to why you pushed rosie on a CM rom?

Ah, I see. Well thats why I asked! Answer the questions, or ask your own, and I'll help out.
To keep it simple and short -
The sense user interface, made by htc, is the biggest version of android next to vanilla (just basic google android). However because of the extensive changes to the system framework that they did, the sense specific apps (with a very few exceptions) will not work on vanilla android. However, its a one way street, just about all vanilla apps work fine on sense roms.
The 'espresso' ui (what the mytouch slide ships with) is just a slightly smaller/modified version of the regular sense ui, with only a few changes, and follows the same restrictions.
CM roms are based off of the vanilla roms with tons of changes and modifications.
So.. Rosie.apk, what this thread is modifing, is the sense ui's launcher (home screen) and therefore does not work on vanilla (CM) roms. Its only for those still running rooted versions of the stock rom.
Simple enough, thanks for the info. I've been trying to get into the more nitty/gritty side of Android. I've already started brushing up on my Java to fool around with some programming, but it's kinda hard when you have absolutely no experience with linux! It helps to have people like you who are willing to take the time to explain to a noob like me what I'm doing wrong, haha.
Oh, btw, sorry for hijacking your thread...

Having owned my EVO since November of last year, one of the mods/apps on my phone that has been with every ROM is JsChiSurf's power control notification bar. It is THE most useful and crucial apps I have on my phone. Although I know there are other 'widgets' on the market that "sort of" replicate it, JsChiSurf's mod is the only one that allows you to have access to any of the power controls you frequently need from any screen quickly and easily, whereas, with most power control widgets, you have to go back to the screen where the widgets are located.

My Photon is arriving today and since it doesn't appear JsChiSurf made the jump to the Photon, it's the one mod that I'm going to truly miss. Because of that, I was wondering if any of you talented developers out there knows how to port this mod to the Photon? I'm willing to pay a bounty ($20, via Paypal) to anyone who can do it.

I agree. This has always been a great feature on past rooted phones. This type of mod is also included in CM7 and is better because you can change them on the fly without flashing and can have more than 6. Either way, would be nice to have.

Brother (or sister if you're female), thank you for pointing me in the direction of that app. I just installed it and it looks like the concept was modeled on JsChiSurf's notification bar (and considering the developer was from XDA, I wouldn't doubt it).
I just installed it on my Photon and it seems to work the same way. In fact, it's a bit more user friendly in that it allows you to select which toggles you want on the notification bar from a menu selection, rather than editing a text file. And although I haven't tested ALL the functions yet, so far, most are working on my Photon. I now have room again on my homescreen (temporarily had widgets installed) and can now access those functions from any screen.
Again, thank you very much! I guess I need to pull my head out of my *ss once in a while and take a look at what's new on the Market.
Try Widgetsoid from the market. It has the option to put the widgets in your pulldown. Works great

I tried this for a while. It's nice, but the Photon doesn't support the all-in-one notification, so each control takes a notification slot. It's nice, but I'm still holding out for Power Control Notification.

So I know that the devs are hard at work on getting us all kinds of CM, AOSP, and/or AOKP goodness, but I thought maybe if any of the devs are looking for some features to add it might be nice to have a thread they can refer to with everyones "wants" once the "needs" are met.
I'll start it off with a request to add support for BLN (back light notification) to an upcoming kernel. This, combined with the option to put the navigation bar on while dissabling the HW keys would be a great feature IMHO. Not to mention our stock notification LED pretty much sucks a big one.
ROM feature requests
Flashlight in notification drawer quick settings
More options in the shutdown menu (Boot to recovery, etc)
Get rid of the idiotic audio policy of volume reduction when plugging in headphones
Allow dialer rotation
The option to see the standard swipe lock screen before the secure lock.
True music controls on the lock screen
Better control of status bar icons (center clock, hide icons, change colors of icons, etc)
The ability to link the notification volume with the ringer volume
Volume rocker music controls
Universal Qslide
Kernel feature requests
BLN
Enable audio through USB for devices like the Infuse Car Dock (I think this is a kernel issue, if not let me know and I'll put it with the ROM stuff)
I didn't see a similar thread on here, so if there is, kindly point me to it and a mod can delete this one. And if BLN support already exists in Sk8's kernel tell me that too, ha ha.
I haven't looked into the ROMs because I'm liking stock, but a request I do have for when I do decide to flash is to have a flashlight if it hasn't been incorporated into the ROMs out now. There's a lot of times where I need to look for something and don't feel like turning on my light switch. Would be a nice thing to be implemented if it hasn't been done and can be done.

I don't know if this is what you have in mind, but I use TeslaLED: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.flashlight&feature.. It has a widget you can add to the homescreen for a quick on off, as well as some other features. I actually have it as one of my lock screen apps. I wish there was a way to have it turn on when opened from the lockscreen, but it's only one extra tap.

My biggest things are center clock, ability to hide things on status bar, and a flashlight toggle. The Base has done pretty well but I would love a flashlight toggle in my quick settings in my notification drawer. The swipe for flashlight thing was so touchy that I disable it.
Also, I love the theme chooser app and ability to have easy themes for my ROMs like in CM10 and AOKP
EDIT: also the ability to boot straight into download and recovery mode like in certain other ROMs using the power button.
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
The Base ROM does have a flashlight built in, you can activate it in the notification drawer options.
I was using Tesla until I found this.
Though I do wish it was in the Quick Settings too.
I would also love native reboot options.
And lastly, I would love the ability to link the notification volume with the ringer volume.
I know. The swipe thing only works half the time and half of that half, I end up with The Base force closes

I had actually forgot about this feature. I just tried it again and sometimes it takes three or four swipes to turn on. Might be user error though.
Swipe for torch works perfect for me.
Reboot options would be nice.
Volume Button Music controls would be nicer.
I actually came up with a wish while looking at the android dev section.
It doesn't actually have to do with the rom itself, but I'm hoping that as things become further developed to not only have a Changelog but to have a what's working list/what's not working list or just the latter.
I see a lot of threads gets bogged down with DOES THIS WORK? IS THIS INCLUDED?
Granted there's a group of people out there that don't read and just flash, but it could be helpful for another group of people that compare and contrast roms (like myself) before flashing.
Anyone else agree?

That makes sense to me. :thumbup: I wonder if xda could get a ROM form together so all the devs can include all the same info in their ROM's thread's OP. I don't know how practical that would be, but it would be nice to have some standardization.

That is a pretty cool idea.
But from what I've seen, most ROM posts actually follow a pretty basic design.
We seem to be the odd ones out.
Aside from turning off animation, is there anything else that can be done to improve UI performance(snap) on this unit?
I heard and read somewhere if you use nova launcher to change the icons (UI) instead of using the touchwiz (UI) ones it will be quite a bit faster i heard, i have not tried it myself yet .

As per your recommendation, I downloaded and installed Nova launcher.
As it turns out, I liked it so much that I bought the Prime version.
Excellent util.
If you have Nova and take out 'icon labels' it even makes it snappier, not for some people but it does help even further. I really like touchwiz but the lag is awful.
Nice to hear that I am going to have to try it also then and see it for myself..enjoy it forsure as it suppose to make the mega more snappier.

My particular unit is from Bell mobility.
Any idea what would be considered bloatware on those units?
If you don't use it... it is bloatware
A good practice is to disable or hide as many apps as possible, and if you have to enable them or un-hide them... keep them.
bloatware for some = essential utility for others.

Good point. I posted a list of all the stuff I disabled in the benchmark thread. Ive since disabled even more. Hiding the apps does nothing to free up resources. These is a ton of apps that would really never get used.
True... hiding apps does nothing for performance... but hiding is sometimes a "better" option for the squeamish.
I use the same idea for possessions... put things in storage... if you dont use them after X amount of days/weeks/months then "delete" them.

If you don't see the developer options, then you need to go into SETTINGS - MORE - ABOUT DEVICE and tap the build number a bunch of times and you'll get a message that developer options have been enabled.

That will turn off all animations. Definately be a smidge smoother.
