Landscape HTC Music App - Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps

Anyone figured out a way for install the espresso music app (you know the one with complete rotation) on the hero, WITHOUT an entire espresso rom?
The espresso HTC Music app is without a doubt the best ive used, so id really like to have it on a hero rom. It failed to load for me when i installed via an update.zip and it refuses to install when manual installing it.
I suppose its possible to run it ok (i have the hero one on a vanilla one fine) but proper rotation is the issue i think here.
So yea anyone managed it, if so could you explain?
Cheers guys

i made it on HebVillain 1.0.2 too.. its easy
open AndroidManifest.xml and change from
Code:
android:screenOrientation="nosensor"
to
Code:
android:screenOrientation="sensor"
(evry where you can find it)

ahh thanks buddy. i didnt realise it was that easy However, i suppose you mean the manifest on the top level of the music apk? because i cant find a trace of either string in it. Am i being stupid? or maybe i have a diff music app version to you?
Also i finally correctly installed the espresso music app on my hero. but it force closes, gonna logcat it and see whats up

NO I didn't.. thanks for the clue.. I thought it came there by default..
Awesome stuff! The boot animation is sweet lol .. I wish everybody putting out roms would get onboard and put them on Rom Manager.. it sure makes getting your rom noticed easier. Not to mention saves me a lot of time when at work lol
boot animation is not my taste.. too loud.. gotta uninstall.

In ADB, go to /system/media. The audio file for the boot animation is there if you want to remove it.

Just my opinions, but don't uninstall simply because of the boot animation, that's one of the easiest things to change about a ROM. just replace the animation with one you like and see how the ROM is.
Is there a list of what is working or broken in the rom?

I got a question. Why does this rom does not come with live wallpaper, and is it possible to add it to this Rom. Thanks guys.
how do I get rid of the sound on boot? I tried flashing a new boot animation and pushing one through adb. Neither changed it.
Shots audio in bootanimation

In case anyone else is interested in getting rid of the "shots" audio, the file is /system/media/audio/notifications/Friendly.mp3 took me a little while to find it so hope it helps someone else out.
I tried the same thing with no luck here either, the Jager rom does not seem to be doing traditional bootanimation. It appears he is overwriting a system ringtone for the audio. As for the .png animations, I could not locate any while dissecting the ROM??
Gps didn't work or camcorder.. but the rest is good

[Q] Live Wallpapers?

Just curious to know if this little machine will support live wallpapers? Been eyeing a Droid X live wallpaper for a while now and wanted to know if wallpapers such as this one will work on the Aria.

Live Wallpapers
I rooted my phone via Unrevoked 2, and running Liberated_Aria R006. I tried loading a live wallpaper, but I can not seem to find how to activate it. When I press menu then Wallpapers, Live wallpaper is not an option. Can I get a little help on where to go from here?
Thanks.
CM6 allows LWP. I don't remember Liberated allows that function since it bases on stock rom
You have to load the zip file from clockwork recovery.

Live Wallpapers
Thanks for all the help. I got it working.
I found this in one of the XDA forums archives, so I figured I would share it here again. I did the clean install option with Liberated-Aria R006, and no issues so far.
Here is the exact wording from the post by Bobj:
------------------------------------------------
6/28/10 - Updated to allow LWP in the Sense UI
* This assumes you have your phone rooted and have access to the Clockwork Mod to allow updating your phone with unsigned zip files *
1.) Put the file onto your SD Card in the root directory
2.) Access the Clockwork Mod
4.) install zip from sdcard (option 5)
5.) choose zip from sdcard (option 2)
6.) Click on the file you downloaded and put on your sdcard
6a.) If you run into an error when installing shut off your phone,, unplug it from the USB cable, then reboot it back into Clockwork Mod and start again from step 2
7.) Once done installing, go back one menu and reboot system
8.) Upon reboot you can now choose Live Wallpaper in the wallpaper options
*Issues*
The only issue that I know of at this time is you have to use the settings/personalize/lock screen wallpaper option in order to change the lockscreen wallpaper
If you have any issues let me know, I tested this on a fresh clean stock rom flash then updated to add in the LWP.
*Files*
Clean install of the LWP packages yyy.mediafire.xxx/?t5mjyjjgnjm
Select this if you want to install the LWP on a clean install or install without any LWP
Update install of the LWP packages yyy.mediafire.xxx/?jjowddzzmdw
Select this if you used the previous version with LauncherPro and Home Switcher. This will remove those packages and update to the Sense Enabled LWP.
--------------------------
Thanks again, and hope this helps.
(Due to that I am a new, please change the yyy to www, and xxx to com in the links.)
Thanks! Works great. Is there no way to use a LWP on the lockscreen though?

If you are using CM6, then whatever your wallpaper is is your lock screen. (sorry about the double is. 8th grade) If you are using liberated_aria, well my technical knowledge DOES know its bounds. Sorry.
I downloaded it, went into clockwork recovery and tried to install it from there and it didnt work. So i rebooted it and extracted the file, found the .apk, and installed it from there. It gives me the option of live wallpapers and lets me see the selection of live wallpapers, but everytime i try to set one of them, it force closes.
Any suggestions?

Honestly, it's not worth it. At all.
Reasons being, for this little Aria, it takes up an insane amount of battery. As much as the screen brightness when it's cranked all the way up. Also, in CM6, some of the touch screens (eg. Nexus LWP) aren't touch reactive, or at least do not respond quickly to it.
You can do it, but I'd advise just sticking with a regular background.

i agree. it works as says and installs easily. but most of the LWP on the market cost money and the ones that came stock with the install aren't worth having. the floating bubles and the pond with leaves were the only ones worth playing with. but i lost interest quickly. and reflashed a R04 rom and did a clean install of everything to get rid of it.
fun if you're easily amused

[Q] Personal Theme Pack - REWARD AVAILABLE!

Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Okay so I've made a custom theme pack for myself, now I just need to know if there's a program out there, for un-rooted users, that will allow me to manually change each existing icon myself? If anyone knows of such a program please reply with it, including some information on where I could find the program.
Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to help out, there's a couple quid in it for the 1st successfull program/method that works exactly how I want it to.
Please note, I don't particularly want to edit each file .apk manually to change its icon =D
How many views and no one wants to make any money?
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App
It is not possible to change something like the icons without root as it would need access to modify the apk files
Okay so given that I'm looking for a nice simple 1 click root, once found what would be the cards in the deck then?
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App
You could change the shortcut icon on the homescreen for example with a program called anycut, or the paid one called bettercut
Otherwise you will need root acses
Edit: Or (Don't know if this works someone might need to correct me ) if you get each apk of the app you want to change the icon on, just open the apk and replace the icon
EDIT2: Nvrmnd read the first post slowly
I've already sussed out the homescreen icons and yeah it makes a massive difference to me, but idealy I want every icon changing to the way I want it, is there a 1clickroot method for Hero?

Hmm... Umm... I got two methods that im not sure if they'll work, first search the market for androot (i think) and try root it that way, second download ROM Manager from the market and install the clockwork mod recovery, there the closest ways to 1 click i think

Haha Okay
First thing, could you go into (on your phone) Settings, ABout phone, Software infromation and then write what it says under Firmware version
Hey I've got to go for a bit now
I reccomend looking here seems simple
http://theunlockr.com/2010/10/11/how-to-root-your-android-phone-superoneclick-method/
And that should work
Now we're down to business! 2.1-update1, I done that myself =D lol then I updated something else to 3.35.61.2 if this is to any use =S
Hehe I can't keep up anymore. It's such a long time since I rooted my phone I have no idea what I did Anyways the trick is to let out what you don't need. Software number etc. often doesn't matter. It's pretty easy actually. When you get root you can very easily install a recovery. Basically you just download Amon_RA from the dev section and type in some basic commands in a terminal emulator on your phone AFAIK (that is when you have gained root which you hopefully can with a one-click method) and then you can start modding flashing etc.
ADB is really easy to set up. You download the zip file from here, extract it and (I recommend) put the extracted folder on your system drive. Now you can rename it to something easy like "adb" or "Android". If you open your command prompt by typing in "cmd" in the search bar in start (if you're using Windows Vista or 7) or opening "run" and then typing in "cmd". You can now type in "cd yoursystemdrive:\thenameofthefolder\tools" and start using ADB commands. Like adb ls -1 system/app (this will list all your system apps. You can replace "system" with "data". Thos will list all your installed apps) or adb pull nameoftheapkyouwanttoedit.apk \adirectoryyouwanttocopyitto (this will copy an app you want to modify. To modify it you can extract with WinRAR or 7zip etc. and edit the images (except the ones that ends with ".9.png")) and at last adb push \thedirectorythemodifiedapkisin systemordata/app (this will put the modified apk on your phone).
Hope this helps a little

Honey Comb Music Player for Epic

HONEYCOMB MUSIC PLAYER
for the Epic 4G​
Zip provided courtesy of DearmasFamily
This is the HoneyComb MusicPlayer ported to the Epic. I applied it to the Bonsai 2.0.1 rom with sucess. What bugs I've noticed are 2. The controls in the status bar pull down aren't there but a notification that opens the app is. Also I noticed music skipping when heavy use or long scrolling a list. Let's get some more testers and see how it works across multible roms. This player was written for a minimum api of Froyo. That means no dice for 2.1. The update zip is edify but I had no success from clockwork. Instead extract the files to your sd and use root explorer to move them in place but remember to fix the permissions. Match them to the other files in system which is all the first row top to bottom checked and the first box on the second row from within rootexplorer.
Alternatively you can adb push these files and change the permissions as well if you know how to do that. This is a work in progress and works well for a drop in port.

I manually mounted system, but it still didn't take. Let me know what you come up with.
yup, script issue. they had set_progress instead of show_progress and the mount commands were hokey so i think it was just failing for syntax. the attached works like a charm and i left the dearmas ui print and everything in tact
Thank you very much. I have a PM from Skeet07 with a fixed version as well. Thank both of you for tweaking the update zip.
initial take on first few minutes is i'm really digging the interface. actually my biggest pet peeve on the stock music player is the default tab is "all." seriously? i want to see every individual track and not first go by artist and maybe album? so the default view is key and expanding to albums when you pick an artist is sexy.
it audio skipped for a second when i backed out and while it put the notification on the pulldown, no biggie. and obviously we arent going to get the pulldown controls for a drop and port, but that would be nice! at least we have the ongoing notification to easily pull up the player if needed. and i like how if you have a track playing and you move around in the player that it keeps the now playing nice and neat at the bottom. very cool
will provide more feedback on use and function later.
Very well put and note on the epic you can still use the stock player as well
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
oh, and that being said, i paused the honeycomb player and opened the stock player and the 2 were definitely in conflict with one another. controls for one were hitting the other. so yeah you can use both but keep it to one at a time, lol
The player is supposed to disable the froyo player so this might be part of the"chopping", I'll look into it.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
further review:
after using the player a bit more, i noticed a few more things. REALLY digging the UI, it does the same effect that gallery3d does with the background. it can stream music (apparently, not tested) and link to your google account to do so.
there are icons (down arrows) where you can add a song, album or even an entire artist to "Play" "Add to playlist" "delete" or "search" for. search pulls up a popup for your browser, music players, pandora, winamp youtube etc...
i DID notice those choppy/skippy effects happening pretty much whenever hte player is interupted, like hitting power to lock the screen, hitting home to navigate away from the player and when any other app initiated an action so it could be a memory issue. its only for a second so its not a dealbreaker.
i could not locate a 5.1 option like with the stock player, so i'm not using it for music atm (since my car DOES receive 5.1 in, yes!) but am playing downloaded podcasts with it and diggin it.

I installed it on my Epic, running the leaked Froyo stock rom, using CM. It installed, but started vibrating randomly.

by stock do you mean the stock DK28 Tar. flashed via odin? if so you are odexed and i think thats why this wont work, you should be deodexed. either get the 1 click odexer deodexer tool or flash the ACS stock deodexed ROM if you want stock. otherwise flash a custom deodexed ROM, then install this.
Id simply uninstall it if I were you I'm thinking it incorporates a few apis were short on in froyo or that the galaxy s phones dont have. Uninstall with root explorer or adb if you need help let me know.

You confused me for a bit there...
CM usually refers to CyanogenMod.
CWM, on the other hand, usually refers to ClockworkMod.

Try it for yourself... just download a Froyo ROM and pull the apk out of it, then install it on your phone with Sense and see if it works.
just tried, i pulled the clock.apk from TheOfficialNexus1 rom, and installed it. so now i have the stock nexus one clock app, but it doesn't trigger the dock to pair with the phone. any ideas as to which apk(s) it would be? i'm determined to figure this out. any ideas as to how to find out? im currently flashing TheOfficialNexus1 rom on my phone and using a task manager to see what new task pops up when i dock my phone.

I have no clue, but thanks for checking. I'd bet that it's a framework issue. I'm not a coder, but it would be cool if someone made an app that triggered the HTC Desk Clock on docking... it's much nicer than the stock one.

Found this on the net long while. Can't rmb where, and I didn't make it. But it works!
but i was playing around a bit with the framework and I managed to achieve the same result without the apk (result as in the deskclock coming up when charging), but still no audio.
so... after a couple days of cooking and testing, i still haven't managed to get the dock working on the nxsense v1.26. however i did find some info like http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=ke...334736426c8b33;hb=android-msm-2.6.29-nexusone
Maybe it's in the kernel + all the files listed at the beginning of the code? if there are any chefs willing to help teach me a few things, i'd like to start cooking for the nexus one. just need a helping hand to get started. i've had past cooking experience with winmo for the kaiser, but thats about it.
