APP drawer orginizer?

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

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.

Looking for a nice LOCK SCREEN

I have rooted my phone and am using CyanogenMod 4.2.14.1
I was wondering if there are any interesting lock screens I could use. My criteria:
1. NOT the ones in the marketplace, have tried them out and don't really like any of them
2. FREE - this is a minor request and definitely not something I want to pay for (heck I've already paid $400 for the phone!!)
3. relatively easy to install. I managed to root my phone with SPL 1.76.007 which took a looong time and was difficult so I know my way around it. BUT, I am not willing to take any risks. I don't mind flashing something, but, that's probably the extent to which I want to take risks.
The screen itself:
1. Simple but with useful features, such as music changing ability, battery status, etc.
2. Some sort of password/lock code (not essential)
3. Background image
Thanks!

then stericson's lockscreen seems to be the one for you.

boot into recovery and flash it on top of your rom

Thanks it worked.
Are there any other options? This one isn't bad but it seems a bit useless to me. Bit odd that you have to press a button to see the battery when it's right there on top!

Nope that's pretty much it. I know hero and eclair roms have a different lockscreen but they don't work for 1.6 roms. Only other option is to flash a hero/eclair rom or get one from the market. If you want one like the iPhone then get lock 2.0. Its not half bad.
I like having the battery button on the lockscreen. The battery on top gives some indication as to howmuch battery you have left but I like knowing exactly how much life is left in my baby lol

Thanks for the response.
Not unhappy with this one per se, but, it just doesn't do it for me.
Lock 2.0 is actually pretty good but I'm in Singapore and I don't have access to the paid market (which in the long run is a good thing!) and the free version has too many restrictions. I can't even add a background.
My main thing is I want a nice clock and background and battery display. This Stericson one does all that but it just feels a bit "meh" to me. Not sure why, not blown away ...Guess I'll survive!
If anyone knows of anything (theme or lock screen) to spice things up do let me know!

email me [email protected]

Does anybody know of a theme or something to make the default lockscreen
transparent??

use lockbot on the market, its pretty good. theres a free version and its still good

i know hurts my eyes looking at it. supposed to give excellent battery life though.

no it does not, i ran a test (its in the general section) because of the "render" it slows your phone down considerably and wastes cpu cycles ergo negating any battery life you would have saved (if you had an oled screen), but since we have an lcd screen EVERY pixel is lit up regardless if its in use or not. i had 29 hours with almost no use, people on here get longer then that with a bit of use...
TL: DR slows your phone down, does make it look cool if your into that, but it doesnt save battery from what ive seen

I would love this app and I dont care if it kills my battery. The green is nice for using screen at night. Better then white screen at night. So do we have a answer where can we get it? Running droidX.

If you are using CM6, it is in Settings > Cyan Settings > Render effect.
You can also add a render fx widget to your home screen. Add it like any other widget.

Cm6 is not supported on droidX. I do have and use it on my original Droid. And im looking for this or something like it.

You're right. The whole idea of showing only one color exploits the technology of OLED and its ability to only light up pixels on demand. LCD works by having the entire backlight always on, with polarizers selectively attenuating the light appropriately for each pixel. That's why LCD cannot achieve true black like OLED, and that's why OLED contrast ratio tests destroy LCD.
Since our Hero has the latter technology, this has absolutely no positive effects for us. Don't use it unless you like less colors.

So I have torn apart most of cyanogenmod's roms and settings trying to find this. So if anyone has it please upload that would be awesome

here is the spare parts APK. i havent tried pushing it yet, but its worth a shot.

I don't think you get it. As far as roms go there is no such thing as custom requests. The fantastic devs here do what the can do with what they have. They give us the best they can. And because they are the ones who put in the hard work they choose how a Rom gets put together. The rest of us non devs must be thankful for what they give is cause without their hardwork, we would have nothing.
If you want what your asking for, you will have to a. Wait. Or b. Learn to code yourself.

You should just go buy an EVO.
Your post makes it seems like the devs don't have it ready already b/c someone like you hasn't specified a brilliant list of things to include.
Plus, your post should be in the GENERAL or Questions thread, not this DEV thread.

If i had alot of money trust me i wouldnt be using an htc hero i would gotten the g2 by now.
I dont like htc evo. 1. It doesnt support 16 million pixels color, just like the rest of android phones since the original droid that came out in 2009(Nexus one,htc desire, Htc desire hd,Htc legend,Htc wildfire,Samsung galaxy and behold 2 series,G2,Mt4g,droidx,droid incredible,droid 2 and Defy).

Thanks for continuing to work on the ROM for this phone. The original OpenZIO ROM by Spz was, and still is, great. It made a pretty limited phone fun to play with. I was afraid that any further development had come to an end. I saw this thread yesterday and flashed my phone last night. Good job. I haven't had time to play with a lot of it yet, but it flashed and worked without a hitch. I have enabled V6 and it seems to be functioning without any problems. I didn't think ahead and use the ROM much before I enabled it, so I can't really tell how much of a difference it has made. Have to play around with it when I get a chance. When I assign a ringtone, user added, to a function going through the music player, the list of sounds I have on my sd card is so faint I can barely read it till I click on one. Not a biggie. Only other thing so far is now when I get a phone call the wrong picture shows up with the caller. Ha. Same thing happened when I flashed the OpenZIO ROM. Ended up deleting all contacts from phone and google and reentering from scratch. Guess I'll try that again. Oh yeh, it seems the home screens are now 5 instead of 4 columns wide. Makes a 4X2 widget off center. Interesting. Thanks again for the work on this ROM and I will let you know what else I find as I use it more.

@glpenguin...thanks for the feedback, i was getting to wonder if anyone used this phone anymore.
Haha..about 5 icons..yea its the launcher...im not totally impressed with it, i was thinking of putting a new one in next update..any suggestions? Maybe QQ launcher?...i see what you mean about the music player or is i cant see..haha..i will look into that, ill pm spzo and see if he cant help me with the contacts changing problem, my gf. has the same problem. Also what settings did you use on the v6 supercharger? I set 256hp aggresive and seems like it helps alot with multi tasking...ill try and have an update in a few days, with things fixed and some more goodies.

Still a lot of us using the ZIO. Before long I'll be stepping up to the new Mercury. Had to use all of my "play" money a couple of weeks ago to fix my work truck, so wasn't able to get it when it released Monday as I planned. Oh well. I have really enjoyed playing with the ZIO. It is my first Android phone. Moved up to it from a couple of windows phones I had flashed from Sprint (old provider) to Cricket. I am using the same settings in V6 and it seems to be running very stable. Don't jump ship on the launcher just yet. It seems to be stable also and so far is pretty quick. I just discovered (probably always could) that I can resize the widgets by clicking on them and dragging the side out. So my 4X2 Fancy Widget is now spanning the whole page. Yea. As far as the contact pics goes, I don't believe it's a problem with the ROM. When happened originally, did a lot of searching and it wasn't an unusual problem with other android phones. I think it has something to do with the way google stores the contact information. Flash the phone, your contacts gone. Re sync with google, your previous contacts are restored (pictures correct in contact list) but when someone calls in the wrong picture is displayed. Lot of people have complained on different phones. It's a pain but delete and re enter is only way I got it to work in the past. Like I said, thanks again for keeping this phone alive. Especially since you don't even have to use this thing. Ha. And thank your girlfriend for her patience from all of us. Without her phone to let you experiment, we would be slowly sinking into the boredom of using a low end phone with no hope of being dazzled again like the original OpenZIO ROM did for us. Good Luck.

Okay..making real good progress with the update...still have a few more things to get done..ill try and have it done by tomorrow.

Nice work. Glad to see someone is still working on the ZIO. I tried this on my girls phone and damn it looks nice, she's loving all themes, the new look and over all everything so far!!!! great job. I had trouble activating phone after dialing *228 It was unsuccessful a few times, but other then that smooth success. Gonna hand the phone over to her now cause she can't wait to get her hands on it. She says thank you too.

@Jerry7389 Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Just rolled back into town and saw your update. I have downloaded and will be flashing in just a few. Those of us still using this phone are in your debt for keeping it interesting for a while longer. Thanks again and I'll post once I've got her back up and running. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and yours.

@glpenguin...hey..glad to see your back and made it home safe..thanks again for all the support!! Theres not a huge amount of changes to the update, i wanted to do more just having the time to do it is an issue right now...

okay...i think this might take care of blackscreen bug with incoming calls....just flash with cwm...no need to wipe anything, just flash and let me know if problems fixed..
