First off, Thanks to Google/Android, XDA Developers, Virtuous Doubleshot, other Android posts, which got me to this.
Virtuous Doubleshot released for Glacier & Vision, both support home screen landscape version. Rosie.apk is same for both the versions, but it is hardware keyboard driven, so it doesn't work on ur HTC Glacier/myTouch 4G.
Here is how U do it:
1. Take a backup of ur /system/app/Rosie.apk. Pull the Rosie.apk to ur host PC.
2. Using apktool, decompile** the Rosie.apk. (apktool d -f -t glacier Rosie.apk)
3. Open Rosie/AndroidManifest.xml & replace all "nosensor" to "sensor".
4. Using apktool, recompile the Rosie.apk. (apktool b Rosie Roise.apk)
5. After this, you need to sign the apk & zipalign it. Done, good to go...!!!
6. Mount ur /system read-write.
7. Push back the signed version of Rosie.apk to /system/app.
8. Reboot (probably not necessary. but it will be clean setup i thought).
**-> U might get some errors at step 2, to fix that,
1. pull com.htc.resources.apk & framework-res.apk from the device or ur Virtuous Doubleshot.
2. Add these resources to apktool base.
(apktool if com.htc.resources.apk glacier)
(apktool if framework-res.apk glacier)
3. Now continue with Step 3 & 4. It should work fine.
I was able to do this & it worked pretty well. Just remember, I tried this not to publish but to put it on my phone, so if you end up bricking(highly impossible i think), or losing data(again, i dint face this), I don't take any responsibility.
Moreover, you may not be able to do this on other ROM releases for myTouch 4G. This can only be done on the ROM ports which have landscape support, technically speaking, Rosie.apk must have landscape resources under Rosie/res/. Otherwise it will not work!
Hope its useful, Im posting this bcoz I googled a lot for myTouch 4G/Glacier HomeScreen rotation/landscape support etc & there wasn't even a single post yet.
*** one last thing, my original Rosie.apk was ~21MB, but the recompiled version is 3.2MB. I don't know why, please let me know if you know why. But the 3.2MB recompiled version seem to work fine!!!
** best, after reading developer.android.com, found tat u can rather use "user" instead of "sensor", this will b more user friendly. if u disable auto rotation in settings -> display, home screen will not rotate for "user", but for "sensor", its forced.. ur phone, ur call..
Tried the same procedure for Phone.apk/HTCContacts.apk/HTCDialer.apk, but not much of use. Dialer wont rotate landscape. Contacts also, only if u select a contact, it will rotate for tat contact. I wish Contacts/Dialer rotated landscape, especially if u r connected using headset, u dont need to rotate phone portrait to answer/make calls, right! Help me, if u figure out a way to make those apps landscape.
Would you be willing to post a working version? I'm willing to try it, I just don't have access to those tools.

Can u share ur stock Rosie.apk? Also, share ur com.htc.resources.apk, framework-res.apk, u can find them under /system/framework. Or try this, open ur stock Rosie.apk using winzip/winrar & check if u av "assets/land" or "asset/land" folder, if u don't, u probably cant use this mod.

Makes sense. But rest of the UI is just mind blowing. Nobody released a lockscreen UI to allow shortcuts??? VU is awesome too. Thanks to all these Great ppl bringing out new ROMs each day & porting them all to Glacier.

is is not my work. All credit goes to sopL87 over in the HD2 forums. Original thread can be found here along with some additional skins I did not post and screen captures of each of the skins.
I had an HD2 and remembered using these skins so thought I would check out if they worked on the HD ROMs on MT4G and it worked. Just download the files, move to SDcard and use Astro or some other explorer to install. Once installed go to personalize and select skins and you should see them in the list.
Here are a few more skins...I have tested them all and have had no trouble installing or loading from the skin selection.
Hope you all enjoy!!
They also work great on the Desire Z ROM that eVil D put out, am using Tronsense on 4G-Z right now and am loving it
Love the tron sense, thanks so much!

the skins don't show up after i've installed them, wut should i do to make it work?
Following this request by coupetastic-droid, I've made the mod attached.
Thanks to this reference by Paul627g, that helped me to avoid testing phase (I initially made the mod by attempting to shrink the clock area to 0 width, but it didn't work so well - and then found the mentioned reference).
The mods were made for:
Virtuous Unity 1.29 and below
Virtuous Unity 2.35 and above (can most probably be flashed on 2.33 BETA as well)
Virtuous Doubleshot 1.1.5
Sense 3.5 R_type 1.0 (Runnymede)
You can attempt to flash this on other Gingerbread Sense ROMs, but remember to back up the ROM and restore if the mod doesn't work.
oh yeah! this is going to make the status bar much more cleaner. specially when other mods are added. ill post screenies of mine later.
all I need now is the 4g icon that I still can't get to work with the transperant pulldown.

Is this supposed to make the pull down transparent? Cause it would not do it for me?

Copy your /system/app/SystemUI.apk and save it somewhere, place it back in /system/app/ if you want the clock back.
Jack, is it possible to get this mod updated for bliss and runnymede?
I'm running rafy's runnymede rom and would like to remove the clock out of this one as well.

sorry jack. that broke my status bar.
heres my systemui.apk if it helps better.
Sorry, got the same results. Looks like I can't decompile the APK properly - apktool shows warnings, that are probably the reason for the failure you saw.

I'd say at least test to see if it works for you. If it doesn't well see what we can do. It may just need to be repackaged in the newest SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk.
Yea those are it but that thread is outdated. They only work on supra version 2.3.3 and viper rc1. He's on 2.1 now LOL

Yes and no. There are a lot of mods out there that seem to be ROM specific. I can add the files to the framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk of a stock deodexed ROM and make a flashable out of that. It'll at least be something more up to date.

I can put something together this evening. I've already got the icons out, I just need to download the ROM and add the icons to the apks. I'm at work and data sucks. It takes like 2 hours to download a ROM. So I'll do it when I get home. Unless someone beats me to it.
After looking in the Olympus apks, do you want to match the theme and make stat bars and battery red? Or do you want to keep them green? I can make the standard green version into a flashable and a red version too if you like.

It worked for me on meanROM! It added a large amount of shortcut space... now I can have more shortcuts next to my Sense clock widget on my home screen!
I suggest that one performs a backup of their /system first. Just in case something goes wrong or one wants to switch back.
Perhaps you could provide a zip that undoes these changes for those that may want to revert?
Thanks for this mod! I hope it gets integrated in the other 2.17 based ROMs.

Since this is the only one I found in a very long search, I gave it a shot anyways, understandable that it didn't work since its probably tweaked for vanilla android -

Hmm... Short of installing a Rom and extracting the apk with astro, jot sure of the vest method to successfully extract. Simply digging through the one S's Rom and extracting the apk from the zip directly failed (I got "did not install" from package installer). If there's a better way to extract the apk error free that might be all it takes to get it working for us =)

Sweet. Thank you =). The only thing (from the screenshots anyways) it seems to be missing are the arrows that allow you to move the cursor... But I presume that'd probably be pretty difficult to get to work on sense 3.6?
Also, thank you for using mediafire. Best upload server from my experience... It's never let me down and has no bs =)

Instead of trying to install it, push the apk to system/app. Make sure to set permission first before pushing.
Remember to back up your stock IME.

I did install via adb and also through recovery. And nada.

Need some smali skills to hack the keyboard to unlock it's 'hidden' arrows.. but unfortunately I don't have such skills.. sorry for that..
Future plan: I will ask for other themers / modders help for changing the keyboard text color to white, so that it will match the Sense 4 theme.. grey kb with black text looks ugly for me..
Looks like the updater-script does not works with your device.. even zip flashed successfully but the apk does not actually installed.. I will make another updater-script later and repack the zip file
For now please extract the HTC_IME.apk from the zip, push it into system/app, set permission, reboot and enjoy
The keyboard with arrows suck major donkey Richards. I wouldn't recommend it unless you really want it.
Wait....I sent this with Tapatalk?

Hmm. That's not the impression I got of it at all. It's the exact same keyboard (HTC ime) with arrows added to it (which makes it way easier to move the cursor). What specifically didn't you like about it?
