Has anyone seen a standalone landscape Rosie mod? I have seen it in a couple of roms.
I am not ready to HTC unlock, I want to make sure I am not going to have any hardware issues, so I am waiting for a little bit before unlocking.
If there isn't a standalone mod I might try just pulling the Rosie.apk from one of the roms and putting it in place with root explorer. Has anyone tried that, and is it only the Rosie I need to pull or are there other files?
Thanks

If your not rooted, then go to the market and download a app called rotation locker. When you open the app longpress auto rotate. You will then have landscape and portrait Rosie.

I just pulled a rosie.apk from a ROM that had it and put it in the /system/app folder. I renamed my rosie.apk first though just in case. I also changed the permissions of the new one to rw-r-r. Worked like a charm.

Thank you, that app also supports landscape dialer. I have been looking for that forever. Don't like car dock mode. Tried every rom on my OG Evo and it was right there in Play Store. I feel really dumb now but thanks again.

That rotation locker is pretty nifty! I just wish it supported "upside down" landscape where the charger port is on top.... when using it plugged in + kickstand, I have to keep the charger port on top
This app locks it in landscape. I can't get it to auto switch. How are you all getting it to work.
Edit.."long press". Got it.

This is a horrible Idea. I just tried it and my phone became extremly unhappy. If your running Stock Odex, this won't work. Even if you delete the Rosie.Odex, your phone will stop working properly. Luckly I was able to revert it with ADB once I figured out the correct mount command.
I am guessing clone1008 was on a custom rom.
I used the Rosie from Stock with goodies 1.31
Okay Back to my rule no more screwing with my phone when I am oncall at work.

so, how do I undo all this....
everything is force closing. I'm on Post-OTA, everything that was changed to blue icons (market, camera, calendar, music, etc. etc. etc.) force closes immediately.
how do I change it all back? is it as simple as rebooting hopefully?..
Reboot resets all fc problems. Not sure what happened. Will be removing all apps except rosie from this. Everything is fc'ing

yeah just found that out after I reset. I don't need any of the blue themed stuff, not much of a fan of blue anyways, but the transparent rosie would be nice to have!
EDIT: removed everything but the modded Rosie and idlescreen base. Worked for a while. But then everytime I hit Home button it says HTC Sense Force closed. So.... Yeah, nice start but too many issues right now. Looking forward to update to it though.
Yeah please, only the Transparent Rosie...
I think if you install the rosie only than install manual apps/widgets it should show what exactly is causing the DC. Be sure to do them 1 by 1

Go to your browser and type "about:debug" without the quotes and press enter. Then press your menu button and go to settings. Scroll all the way down and enable it, then load up any page and rotate your screen.

The one thing that keeps me coming back to MIUI is that I love the "in-call dialog" screen and it's features. I love it so much that I am willing to forgo 4G / 3D to get it.
Is there a way to port this over to be used on a Sense rom?

Awesome man. Exactly what I was looking for!
Question though. How do I set up the system so the exdialer handles inbound calls? Wouldn't that still default to the Sense dialer?
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D using Tapatalk
I have not rooted my EVO LTE yet. But I installed ADW EX for now and can't stand the menu button on the bottom. It takes up too much space.
I'm not a Sense fan and was hoping version 4.0 was better, but but after a couple of days I still prefer pure Android. Unfortunately I can't figure out why HTC and others are adding permanent home, and back and recent buttons when ICS looks better without them.
Even when I root and install CM9, for example, I'll have a huge menu button that takes up too much space.
Anyone see what I'm talking about?
What can we do about it?
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Man I installed go launcher and I'm wondering the same exact thing. I upgraded to this phone to have a bigger screen than my s2 and I can't even do that without sense..
Does anyone know how to get rid of that menu vertical ... at the bottom?
I think an option is to use Apex or Holo launcher. They seem to be better suited for ics. Just saw a video review of it here http://goo.gl/cykps
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Another option is Nova Launcher. It is a true ICS launcher that is really slick and and does away with the three dot menu.
There is a mod that could be flash to remove menu bar and remaps it. Have you guys tried it?
Sent from my EVO using XDA
If you flash cm9 they remapped the buttons that crap is gone, it's running way better than sense also. Just a few minor issues.
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
But is there an official CM9 out for the evo? One thing I'm not liking is the 1gb ram and sense. Sense is still too heavy for 1 gb ram. Sometimes it takes 15-20 seconds to load the sense launcher.
I bought apex pro. Better, but when I jump to different apps then hit the home button, sometimes it takes a few seconds to load the launcher.
That just tells me memory is running out somewhere (sense).
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
OP, just to clarify, when you unlock and run CM9 , you WON'T have the big long menu bar. Even on sense, if you're rooted you can get rid of it.

+1 on Nova.
Running Fresh 1.0 with Nova launcher, no lag but never really had any of the Sense 4.0 reload issues that some talked about anyway. Figured it was just the GS3 people trying to troll but maybe a bad batch of cells went out too..
Anyway, NOVA is sick! Setup the way you want, gives you better visual then GO etc (IMO) and great on footprint (memory). Works very well and as the other user stated, its native to ICS anyway. Give it a shot, blows the doors off anything else I tried and no lag anywhere..
Fresh is great too IMO, there are some great multitasking tips using the ROM toolbox, adjusting heaps etc..works well also,

What you say would be a solution for my discontent. I'm going to root soon and will remove some of the sense bloatware, but removing the menu also interests me. Regarding CM9 once it's officially supported ill be on board.
I bought apex and almost bought nova instead. They both look interesting.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Just to let you know the menu button on the bottom shows because those apps having been optimized to ICS, yes after 7-8 months and developers still doing the same, thats the reason you dont see any system apps doing that, cause their optimize, I wish developers would tho

So it's just a matter of time before more apps are optimized? It is very annoying...

Another option I wouldn't mind would be to hack the recent apps button to make it think it's the menu button. I'm used to long pressing the home button anyways. I think the Sgs3 is like that.

Radio is now 1.12.11.1119 and 4G is working inside my office building...no more having to go outside it seems.....
Updates to the Gallery. Now when you open it up you can pick the source
Update to the music app. Same with gallery...you can pick the source.
Update to how it handles 4G and WiFi..basically promising to turn them off when it knows it won't need them as opposed to always scanning.
Update to message app. There are more settings for personalization such as changing bubble colors and background
Low res contact fix which is common for all 4.1 I think
Color scheme change from green to blue to match JB
Pin enabled lock screen change
You can open up the maps to see where your pictures were taken
Stock browser has new look and is JB updated
Power saver
Keyboard has been changed up as well. Now can turn off arrows. Can't turn off prediction (well idk how to)
And more stuff...so far what I pointed out is just what I found to be important to me. I just now got to install this >.< I unrooted and updated.
Edit:
The HTC music app widget in the notification area now has the option to go back as well as pause and go forward
Wallpapers no longer scroll (figuring out of this is on purpose or if there's something i need to mess with)
