I've been searching around but haven't been to keen on finding any working rooted multi-touch roms out there.. Is there a way to just have an addin or edit to enable this?
I'm using Dream/G1 with a heavily mod'd (rooted) 1.6 firmware
Sorry if I missed this anywhere else on the forums, I tried doing a search but it wasn't confined to just Dream Forums but instead all of XDA.
Thanks for any helpful information!
I don't think they're are any, most hero roms do though.
BTW u can search just dream forums by clicking "Dream" on " xda-developers > Dream" at the top of the page and doing a search there.

My girl and i both have G1s. Her phone uses DXtop and is not rooted. Her DXtop has the ability to orginize APPs in her APP drawer. I have been looking everywhere and cant find anything that alows my rooted G1 to do the same. Is there anything out there that can manage APPs in the drawer on a rooted G1 running cyan 4.0.4?

Advanced launcher is a home replacement. I'm interested in a theme or application that is not running over my original home but allows the APP drawer to be customized. Besides, it also states that it is not usable with Cyan 4.0.4. Any other ideas?

its not a home replacement like dxtop....it actually replaces the one you have
did you even read the op properly?
I'm confused by myself. So here's the description: u17 ist still the old version for cupcake releases. There is a standalone and a replacement. Both are for cupcake based builds.
Then there ist v2.0.1. It's the new version. It's for donut based builds. And it's currently only the replacement version, standalone will come.
So don't use v2.0.1 on cupcake based builds (like cyanogen's 4.0.4 stable) and don't use u17 or u17_replacement on donut based builds (like the cyanogen experimental branch).

i.e........ u17 is compatible with 4.0.4 but not donut
read the op and use the replacement version instructions to fix up your build

i know what you mean xD
yesterday i spent 3 hours debugging another teams program. they had 6000 SLIC and it crashed on run time. I figured what the hell, im up for a challenge. well the whole program crashed because of one letter
fliers instead of flier
both flier and fliers were valid so it compiled fine but crashed when it was run. the exception being thrown was nowhere near (in a completely unrelated class) where the error was and the debugger on eclipse missed it completely.
turns out, the guys made bets on how long it would take me to find it. (i beat all their wagers. i told them to give me the pot or id report their asses. see, im super productive XP )
because of that diversion, i didnt get my team to finish their project so i made them stay after xD

LOL. Yea one lil letter, number, space, or character and that throws everything off. I've had to go thru line by line studyin everything to see whats been wrong and after awhile everything just blurs together. Luckly I'm workin on a couple different projects that use arbortext which makes everything alot easier. But there's those times arbortext messes up and its back to lookin at the code in text pad or word pad and wow you already know how that is.
Ive searched high and low, here, google, bing and forceclose.com' even tried ADB and terminal to look under the hood. nothing so far.
I hate the 1.6 camcorder; no auto-focus...not even sure if there is a zoom feature. Can anybody tell me which version or which image the camera/camcorder.apk in CM.4.0.4 is from so i can port.
It looks like a mesh of Magic's and Hero's modified, but im not sure and very confused.
This is the only thing keeping me from going full-donut.
that would be the htc camera port, give me a sec and i should be able to get you a link to it

you say first...i assume reguarding the search results but there arent any updated or modified versions of said info right?
EDIT: also there shouldnt be any stability issues to encounter. i mean why release 1.6 downgraded w/ less features?
it is not less features, just the stock camera that came with the phone's most likely
i don't use the camera on my phone ever so i couldn't tell you much about it, just from helping out or reading threads
try adding the month in on your search sometimes that helps

So everyone is wondering why the Nexus One Launcher just keeps FC'ing, and how come the Droid can just install, and WHAM! it works. ANY ANSWERS????
the droid luancher is just a themed Rosie.apk. we already have Rosie (sense UI). the nexus launcher is probley having shared uid issues or something. thats just a guess though.
I think you have me wrong, Im talking about the native nexus launcher not the rosie 2.1 combo
use the open eclair launcher2.apk it works fine

no i was explaining what the droid (themed) rosie was. the nexus launcher is going to need opengl 2.0 to be fully functional. and to get it to instal ur gonna need an aosp rom. we had aosp build on the heroc forum but things went south with the leak of a .29 kernel. causing the drivers for touch screen to not be compatible with anything but htc built and modified builds. but before the .27 kernel came along i backported the opengl drivers from the .29 kernel into the old .27 kernel enabling the 2.1 opengl drivers which are opengl 1.1 for the msm7k devices. the nexus one like many other new devices has a different arch and gpu that alows them to have opengl 2.0. our devices just dont support it. the best lwp we can get are only lwp from the market that are half baked/ home brewed lwp. so yeah ther is a chance u could port one of the few builds that have support for the nexus launcher and other nexus goodies. but in the end it will be fairly buggy as it was on the heroc. ie Eris and heroc are basicaly the same devices. only a few minor differances.

Seems to work fine for me now, with live wallpapers as well
I seem to remember that when the leak first came out there was some "issue" with the opengl that shipped inside of the update. That *might* be whats going on here. I'd suggest looking around for that thread, as there may be answers to your questions in it.

I've been trying to say live wallpapers worked with the launcher2 from open eclair for a while..just not the wallpapers that ship with the phone

yeah the only real issue with the nexus one launcher that we had with the heroc, was the app tray was a little laggy and bothered a lot of people.
the lwp though were just issues with the stock lwp. like i said the ones in the market worked ok. some were a bit laggy though and would at times bring the phone to a crawl. i remember one did for sure. that was the "logcat lwp" i loved it but it was easily seen that lwp werent meant for our hardware.
but yeah i think its possible to get a few of the stock ones to work also. i cant remember what me a maejrep had to do to get them working. but i do remember them still being to buggy. but yeah most of the market ones were ok and would run for the most part fine.
I still cant find a working launcher2 someone please POST A LINK!!!!!!

X2...................
Right, i'm sure this must have been asked before but I cannot seem to find it from searching so forgive me.
I've been trying OpenEclair and the like and find that the whole 2.1 is a bit "meh"... yes there are a couple of neat things but altogether its not a million miles away from 1.5 or even 1. Performance was lacklustre which forced me to go back to the trusty Cyanogen rom.
The two things I found neat about 2.1 was the fact you could sync up 2 gmail accounts to it.. immensely useful since I use gmail apps accounts for both my personal and for work. K9 and 'Work email' just dont cut it.. the other thing is the lock screen.
The question I have really is just 'is it at all possible to get those 2 aspects working on the 1.6 cyanogen rom (or any other rom that isnt 2.x for that matter)
cheers for reading

It's probably why there are so many noobs!
They don't feel like reading from their phones or maybe the search feature doesn't work 100% on the app.
Once you've backported all of 2.1 to 1.6, 1.6 will effectively become.... 2.1. Which makes this entire exercise a waste of time.

went from an iphone 4 to it. so far i like it 100000 times better. the screen is gorgeous. i love the layout. i was never much of an apple man myself.
does anyone have any tips? anything to look out for with the phone, things to do to help it run faster, anything really. i dont even know where to begin asking questions. all this is so new to me.
any friendly help would be greatly appreciated!
Depends on what you want to use it for. Dropbox and Evernote are must-have apps for me, and I prefer Kaiten for email.
In the themes and apps section, you'll find a recent thread with setups for making your note a great in-car tool (with a car dock home app, navi, poweramp for music, etc.)
I'm running stock except using GoLauncher EX for my launcher. Been very pleased with speed, responsiveness, and battery life, so haven't felt the need to root.
awesome. thanks! yeah i honestly don't even know what i want to hear. just looking for the full.experience i suppose
Definitely try ss, go, and Adw launchers. I switch between the 3 as they are all good. Pick up stickman golf-very addictive. And get any and all emulators

Not sure if this type of page is allowed to be linked here, but if you Google search "emuparadise" you will find the page with lots of ROMS to download.
for look & feel go launcher is my personal fav. There are so many free & paid themes available. Also, u can check out the new widgets & plugins for go launcher. they have introduced a new go power master. This has got good power profile setting options. I am getting good performance & battery life (now @ 19% 2days 9 hours).
spb shell 3d is also good, but i like go launcher better.
