Since the backflip has a 2.1 custom rom now I know it has the ability to display live wallpaper like mariolive (which is my wall right now) but how would one go about creating one?? I seen a cmd prompt version for the nexus on here and did try to use it but just keep on getting force closes. are there any other sources that tells you how to create one? something that compatible for any phone capable of displaying LWP
Thanks

Hi, is there any chance to have a default android launcher and homescreen and actually all plain android system without these samsungs rubbish, what I mean - is any other similar android device on market which have plain android software and maybe we can just port (copy with or without modification) them into our device ?
Any advice ? which device is the closest to SGS ?
I know there is a few 3rd party launchers around but I wish to start to mod my phone from really basics, second thing samsung tWlauncher and other samsung apps are really poor. I am really beginner with android but if there is full SDK from google maybe we can just compile a new versions of launcher and any other components ?
Not at the moment but my guess is that when samsung gives us froyo (sometime in august) a vanilla version will be along in no time
If anyone can help with this, I’d really appreciate it. I have been a little disappointed since plunging into Android that for whatever reason, the email app (not Gmail) doesn’t have a “move to folder” option. I’ve had this option on WinMo and Symbian phones so I found it hard to believe that functionality wasn’t in Android. FYI, I am currently running CM 6.1.1.
Well I bought my wife a Samsung Epic 4G for Christmas and lo and behold, the email app on her device has that option! Her phone is rooted and running the Epic Experience ROM. I have tried, to no avail, to put the email app from her phone onto my N1. I have the apk file, have tried to just install as is, have tried pushing via adb, even tried inserting it into the CM ROM zip file in place of the one that was in there. So far I’m not even close. So here are my questions:
Are there any ROMs for the N1 that have this function included?
If not, is it possible to install this in place of the email app in CM?
I’m rather fond of CM and would rather do the latter if it’s possible. I was able to get as far as getting the file signed, and the closest I got after that, I received the error:
INSTALL FAILED MISSING SHARED LIBRARY
With over 200 lib files in the Epic ROM, I have no idea which one(s) would be necessary to make this work. Both phones have Android 2.2.1.
Again, any help would be greatly appreciated!
No help on this at all? C'mon folks, I know we've got some smart people in here that can make this work!
As the title suggests, I've seen plenty of documentation on the forums as to how to uninstall the Samsung bloat that comes with the Captivate, but what about those of us who want to install some of that "bloat" back onto a newly rooted/flashed phone?
One app I really liked for instance was the Samsung IM app (wasn't branded by carrier, was just a vanilla Samsung app - I believe it was part of the Social Hub) and I would love to get that put on my phone running Perception 10. I tried using Titanium to back it up and then restore it to the Perception ROM after flashing, but I just get either an error message saying that the Seven service is unavailable or FCs if I try any other ways.
Are there any links to apks or app dumps out there? Am I missing something? Forgive me if I am, I've been looking for a while but haven't managed to find any threads that actually have the apks/zips attached or go into great detail on how to do this.
Thanks!
I believe allot of the apps that are samsung are reliant on touch wiz. So if your rom does not have touch wiz, I do not think you bean use it.
Although I may be off here
First let me say "Hello", I have been using another Android 2.0 tablet/e-reader device for 18months but kept having WiFi issues so when Dell offered the Streak-7 w/Android 3.0.X installed at close out {and rumors of a user created 4.X being tested} I purchased one and have been learning about its quarks...
The main question I have right now is.. can I add launching windows from the current stock number (5?) to something else (7) with out having to load a different "Home" launcher? (Had been using ''LauncherPro'' on my other device.) or can I add "Folders" which would open up as a launching window?
I have not rooted or other wise changed the basic factory shipped version other than getting most of my apps moved over.
The stock android launchers are very inflexable, pretty much the only thing that's adjustable at all are the size of widgets in 3.2+. Anything else is pretty much what it looks like and not changable.
If it's important enough you're gonna need to use a different launcher like launcherpro previously mentioned.
Thanks

Thanks for the fast reply! I really like the blue glow of the current launcher, and have always disliked the idea of paying of skins, but may just have to go that route.

In the beginning there weren't any launchers compatible with tablets, but now I think all the best ones are... My personal favorites are ADW EX and GO Launcher, so if you hate to pay, then I would go the Go Launcher route, it's what I run on my Streak 5 since I got it and they are constantly making it better
Hello,
First off I apologize if this was posted somewhere, I searched but did not find. Anyway, I have an old Motorola Droid that I no longer use, I was wondering if there were a way to load a mod that would allow me to use my old phone strictly as a secondary display for my desktop. I know there are a few apps out that allow desktop extension like idisplay for instance, but I am just looking to turn my old droid into a usb monitor. Is there a bootloader that will do this, or can one be developed?
Not possible
I don't think there is something out there
It must be develovped
And why do you want to use a phone as a monitor?
