Hey everyone!
In case you haven't noticed, the Galaxy S and MIUI ROMs have the 'bounce back' animation, where scrolling doesn't just stop at the end of a list, but bounce to show you that you've reached the end.
Do you think it's possible to extract this from the Galaxy S or MIUI and if so, will you help me?
Noone got ideas?
If I'm interpreting your description of that feature correctly, that's been a part of ADW.Launcher for quite some time.
EDIT: I re-read that and saw you're talking about "lists", not home screens, so never mind.
I want that as well! Don't want to install MIUI, just the bounce scrolling.
supposedly the gingerbread update should bring this function to android.
Let's hope so, but I think there should be a way to extract it from a Galaxy or MIUI ROM?
UPDATE: The latest CyanogenMod versions have the feature implemented!
I'm glad they're working together with the MIUI developers now.

Hello Everyone,
How come the new roms aren't coming with the cool htc animations such as the flip clock. Can someone send me a list of the newest roms with the that animation? Please let me know.
Thank You
That'sjust the way it is in the latest ROM dump. HTC removed the animations (I think it's just the flipclock) presumably to increase speed. Would you seriously switch ROMs for one animation? >.>
Animations
Hello Everyone,
Yes i would cause its not only for that but for all the others. When you unlock it then it does the animation. Do you know any roms? Please let me know.
Thank You
Can we not simply "downgrade" the clocks or ask a dev the right way to include something that would let us use the animated flip clock? I don't think it helps out performance that much, especially not on a well configured, well performing phone. There has to be a way to use the old clock apk or something like that, please correct me if I am wrong.

Search for Drizzy's Elite_Fullv0.2. It has a clock that flips. Note that this rom is odex'd. Maybe you can extract the widget and push it to your hero rom.
go find the old one that has all of the animations you like then extract the .zip folder then go to system, framework, then find framework-res.apk, extract that, then click on it, then go to res, then anim, and theres all your animations. you can pull them from that rom and put them on another. i have blurs animations, and those are by far the coolest ones.

jacs 1.6r2a is the newest and most stable hero rom with a flipping clock. hero2 1.5.1 is based of 1.6r2a and both roms work really well.
i wouldnt recommend drizzys 0.2 since it was only experimental and not fully optimized.
Is it possible to take the look of the phone application and the way it looks during a call from MIUI and put it into CM7? MIUI has a much nicer layout than CM7's phone application.
Thanks, Adam.
MIUI for Milestone is based on kalbaldans/nadlabaks CM7 on huge parts anyway!
In addition to that, lalit79 always puts the latest enhancements of CM7 inside his MIUI-ROM
Okay, I understand that. But I would like to change the in-call screen in CM7 to the one from MIUI, and I like the way the contacts work. Has the little letters on the right side for quick scrolling. Is that at all possible?
I would like to know this as well. The default call screen of android is kinda meh..It would be great to have MIUI or HTC's call screen...
GoContacts
Before you do that, try out the market app called GoContacts.
it offers you this little letters on the right side you're asking for and it's free
I find it quite incredulous that with all those amazing Devs out there that no one has found the solution to creating the CRT Effect complete with softbutton backlights on yet for the Incredible S. Apart from Cyanogen but the buttons don't rotate.
I know a lot of you don't see what the big fuss is about with CRT but there's a lot of us who want this feature. I'm sure many of us would join me in saying that the first Dev to solve the CRT backlight problem would receive a donation.
A friend of mine said that he has changed one boolean inside an xml in the framework*.apk file and it worked on his Samsung Galaxy S2 (when he was on an older version of the OS) but now it doesn't work any more
I tried it out myself when I installed ARHD 1.1.5 and I was left with no wallpaper, some applications force closing and no icons on my desktop
Reverting to the original file fixed the issue
Hey All
1st post here.
Im from Cape Town, South Africa.
I have recently installed Slimbean 2.3 on my Galaxy S. Was on Slim ICS 4.2 before.
Everything works like a charm and I am very happy.
One thing that I havent managed to figure out yet, is the following. (And yes, I have searched, and also Im not allowed to post in the Slimbean thread):
On the lockscreen, where you have the unlock slider, I can not find the "sound/silent/vibrate" toggle anywhere.
So when your phone is locked and you want to change it to quiet/silent without having to unlock first, you simply slide to the "sound on/off" shortcut and it changes the phone setup to silent or vibrate and vice versa.
I have tried to find the setting in ASS lockscreen settings and I can change it to all sorts of app shortcuts, etc, I just cant find the sound switch
It was one of the standard options on Slim ICS roms.
Someone please help?
Cheers
Bus
Already considered that it just isn't included in Slim Bean (yet)?

Thank you for the reply. I assume you are THE Dark knight man?
I suppose its possible for it to not be included yet...
But you godlike devs astound me with the magic that you come up with
So as a mere mortal, I just expected something so minor to be incorporate almost as a given, hehehe...
Will wait and see
thanks
Bus
Now on Slimbean 2.4 and still no option for this.
Anyone who can help?
Or know how to make it work?
Thanks
they haven't included those lock screens since GB roms
you should use an application for that capability
So, a few days ago Apple announced iOS 8 and previewed some of it features. This made me look back into Android, specifically Stock Android. And with Google I/O just around the corner, here are some things that I wish Google will improve on.
The Dark, Old, and Gloomy Holo UI
When it first came out, Holo UI was the thing. Everyone who was still on Gingerbread wanted it, they installed launchers and even modded framework and stuff. Skip forward 3 years, Holo UI is still here with a little change on the icon colours. Some may love it, but it's definitely getting boring. There are rumours that the next version will be 5.0 instead of 4.5. I hope that with the 1.0 jump, there will be a major UI overhaul.
The Not So Helpful Quick Tiles
Quick Tiles, when you look at it it really seems to help make things quicker. "Oh look, the WiFi icon. If I press this, it's gonna toggle the WiFi, right?" NOPE, clicking it will bring you to the Settings section while long pressing it will toggle it instead. I don't know how long it's been like this but I've only tasted stock since 4.2.2 and it's still like this on KitKat so... Someone in the UX Department needs to be scolded.
Not only it's rather misguiding, the toggles itself doesn't offer that much. There are no tiles for NFC, Sync, Auto Rotation and there's no way to add them either. Custom ROMs and manufacturers' skins however offer all these for years and even after a few 0.1 updates, Google doesn't seem to touch this. Which makes me wonder if most people prefer it Google's way. I definitely don't.
KitKat Transparency Not Being Used
When KitKat was announced, the transparent status bar and navigation bar really wowed me. I was hoping the colours would match accordingly to which app is opened. But apparently, apps need to be updated and coded to take advantage of this. Which is fine, there are a few apps that does this but what baffles me is Google isn't one of them. Other than Google Now Launcher, everything pretty much stayed the same. How can others be motivated to do this when even Google isn't doing it.
It Lacks Appeal to the Public Eyes
Have you seen what other skinned Android can do without installing other apps? Multi-Window, Dual Capture Camera, Slow Motion Video Capture, Floating Apps, Power Saving Mode, Video Calling, and many more. What can Stock Android do? Well, normal stuff every Android smartphone can do except those above I guess. Stock Android are designed for developers and tech enthusiasts so it should be normal to stay as de-bloated as possible but don't you want some of those goodies that other skins offer?
Your Thoughts?
Yes, there are apps that can do the stuff above and Xposed Framework can help, but we're talking about pure stock Android without roots and many other stuff. Which makes me wonder, being a Nexus user, how many of you guys stay pure stock?
With competition heating up such as iOS's possible split Window Mode and Windows 8.1's Cortana, not to mention other emerging OS such as Tizen, Ubuntu Touch, Sailfish and Firefox OS; Android need to step up it's game on the next version. What do you think will make Stock Android better?

Custom ROMS are way ahead of this.. Stock, naaaa.. Custom roms you get features satablility and sort of completeness. It defeats stock by a long margin.

Yeah, tried stock for a week, couldn't stand it :silly: With all those bugs, it makes you wonder if people at Google actually uses stock Android or never tried custom ROMs, lol.
