[REQ] Nexus Launcher on G1? Can This Be Backported? - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

First off, my apologies if this belongs in the Q n A, I just figured it'd serve more purpose here. So if this belongs there, I'll have a mod move it asap.
So with that out of the way, I was curious if it was possible to port the Nexus' "3D" launcher, or launcher2, whatever you'd like to refer to it as. I have the ported version to 2.0.1 on my droid, and just wanted to know if it could be brought down to donut?

They changed alot from the 1.6 and eclair's framework.
Maybe it can be done if the time is devoted to making it work.but most likely wont be done though.

So can you upload the ported version for 2.0.1? Would it work on our 2.0.1/2.1 ports by chance?

i agree... upload for us...

I thought the hardware limitations of g1 prevented it from having some of Eclair's 3D features such as 3d Gallery/and 3d Launcher.
I wouldn't even want to have this launcher I can only imagine how slow it would run.

Which is the best ROM for me?

Hey I was looking for a new ROM on my new G1. I would like something with a nice digital clock widget, a messaging widget, and just many downloadable widgets. My brother has Hero on his G1 and I love, the only problem is that I don't like the fact that if you slide it up it just freezes... So are there any somewhat similar to Hero but can slide?

As of right now, no. This is because the actual Hero doesn't have the keyboard, and so when you slide it up, it tries to force Rosie into widescreen which it doesn't support, ergo, the crash. You'll just have to live with it. However, Drizzy has been making some progress with that and has actually gotten Rosie to run with the keyboard open though it crashes and then reloads Rosie when you open the keyboard. He said he'd look into it more so follow his twitter for more info.
EDIT: Forgot to say. Hero ROM's are the only one with a messaging widget. You can download the Digital Clock widget from the market for a small price. I don't know the name of the widget exactly, just do a search for it in the theme section, it was mentioned in there a few times i believe.
There aren't any messaging widgets like the one on the Hero roms. You can download ANY widget to any rom though, just search the market for widgets and see what you find. Hero shouldn't freeze when you "slide up" whatever that means, if your talking about the keyboard when your on the home screen that is because they don't rotate, only in programs. If you mean some other type of slide then most likely your brother didn't do a proper linux-swap partition or it is to small. Anyway you need to just try the different roms and see what you like best, also some themes offer extra widgets and features but remember you can get any widget to any rom, just not the Hero/HTC Rosie widgets because HTC's stuff is closed source so we can't port it.
Ok thanks guys. So can I have the original and like non experimental link to hero. I use to search box and only find mods of it, and I guess I am just iffy on the mods. Anybody mind giving me the link to the newest and best quality ROM for Hero? Thanks In Advance

The modded ones are the best ones. The unmodded original is veryyyyy slow compared to the new ones. I would try JACHeroski 2.1 or MoDaCo 1.51 are both fast, stable choices.

All heros are technically "experimental". I haven't messed with the new Drizzy. I'm still putting JacHeroSki 2.1 throught it's paces. I can recommend it. There are people who like each of the different incarnations of hero.
What I suggest is going to the DEV section and read. Decide on your own. Hell, you can flash them all with switchrom. Have some fun and learn some cool stuff.
so good roms

Switchrom for the win. Seriously.. haha Yeah JACxRom is pretty decent. But as far as hero have you tried HERO2 - Freedom of choice? If not I think you'll be impressed. I flash FoC when it was first released and it wasn't anything to write home about but now? Dang.. it's fast. Wicked Fast. Try it out!

i think it would only work on the hero device but the devs should def look at it
Once again, WHY. LWPs aren't even stable yet especially because of the 3D memory leaks. The builds are already anti-battery friendly and chances are you'll only be using the lwp for 5 minutes before turning it off from the unbearable lag emitting from your phone.

[REQ Theme] VirusRom Airborne 5.3

This Rom/Theme is pretty sweet, is it even possible to port this over to the Fascinate? For the most part I've seen that it is Exclusive to the HTC EVO so it may not be possible but wanted to check it out.
Links to the theme: I can't post because i'm still to new to the board.

the theme could be ported...the rom atm no as its 2.2....and since im assuming its sense, it cant be ported anyway
It really blows that we do not have 2.2 yet. Especially with that screen shot that we had of end of 2010 and it still isn't here.....
If anyone is interesting in porting the theme it would be amazing!

Can you check if the stock google Launcher2.apk is included in this firmware? i hate the customized one of LG & all the other launcher like ADW and LauncherPro that don't work well with live wallpapers anyway i hope someone will port the Honeycomb UI or the complete firmware, that interface should work great on a 4'' display

Thanks will add to OP
I just got back from work so I didn't had much chance to play with the dump yet.
I've got 2 live wallpapers working on my N1 :
Bubbles movement
Christmas SnowCity (also need lib file to be pushed)
There is also quite a few other apps that works out of the box but mainly in Korean language tho. Nothing really interesting yet mostly bloatware...
And yes I did check the clock/weather widget, FC but that was to be expected it may require the framework to work I haven't looked at the issue yet tho...
The boot animation is also nice IMO - I like the dancing android mascot lol
If there is an interest for those live wallpapers I could post them in the apps section - let me know
Hi All-
As Bypass mentioned, I am the lucky owner. If there is anything else I can do to help development, please let me know. I am more than happy to help in anyway I can. That being said, as Bypass can attest to, I am a COMPLETE NOOB in this area, so I will need detailed instructions. Hopefully, with his guidance, I can get the the files that will be necessary for real development to begin from my phone to you guys! Thanks everyone who is participating in this!
Thats the real xda community spirit guys, let the developement and modding begin! Lets all get behind this phone and give it all the support it needs to reach its full potential. Once again i respect you all for the great enthusiasm, keep it up everyone.
is there a netflix app on here, similar to the netflix app being pre-loaded on the lg revolution? would be nice to get an apk...

On my phone, there are 14 live wallpapers available:
bubbles movement, christmas snowcity, fire work, galaxy, grass, magic smoke, Many, Nexus, Polar Clock, spectrum, vu meter, water, water drop, waveform. NOt sure how many of those have been available before....
Most seem to be the stock android ones, apart from the first 2.
What was getting root to do this like? Hard or not? Seriously considering this phone, but would mean changing operator in a while!
considering it was my first android phone, I would say getting root was not too difficult. Installed the android sdk and LG phone USB drivers. Used super one click to root the phone. Apparently I did something wrong during the process but after messing around w/ some help from Bypass, I got a full root. I imagine with a little refinement, rooting will be quite easy.

[Q] htc sense live wallpaper

Ok, I've looked all over the place and can't seem to find what I want so sorry i this is a double post.
I am looking for the HTC Sense live wallpaper. You know the one I mean, the HTC Desire Bubbly one. I have found a version on this thread but it doesn't work on the hero http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=647837
Something to do with the resolution?
Anyway, is it possible to port this to the Hero?
Thanks
Dale
I really want this too but I believe it's only for HDPI devices and the Hero is probably too weak to run it.
I guess by the lack of comments this has either been done before or is not possible?
It's been done !

Thank You! It's a bit of a shame it's not compatible with 2.1 though since VR13, but if Froyo Sense ever works properly I'll be sure to try this.
Have you managed to get this to work on your Hero? I tried it on the RCMIX ROM and it didn't appear under live wallpapers. I flashed it with no errors, it just didn't appear after the reboot.
What Roms have you tried it with? Maybe I should try it with Cyanogen...
I dont think it ever will unless we magically aquire an Adreno GPU for our hero's as that wallpaper is dependant on the Adreno drivers..
EDIT:After looking i think we have Adreno 130gpu and legend has 200 gpu..The legend port would be easier as its same res...
Ive tried alot of different things and i can get it to show in the list but as soon as i preview i get a Fiorce close
