Theme and Rom Compatibility ??

Can any of these themes posted here work with the HTC Hero?

Who knows what is what right now. This subforum is a GIANT MESS right now. Every OP will have to go back and specify which theme is for which device. This was a foolish idea to mix everything up like this! BAD IDEA.....

I completely agree the three previous comments.

please put it back the way it was!
this is just a giant cluster f**k now (which will get worse once more android devices come out i imagine), even when/if all the OP are updated to specify which theme works for which ROM/phone itll still be a cluster ball and a lot to scroll through looking for ur specific ROM/phone
and im sure there will still be posts in the thread asking if this theme works with so and so phone/ROM or port to this phone or that phone because it is all mashed together.
wishfull thinking: please make themes again randum, ill give u my comp
not really but ur themes were my fav :]

Well, ROMs are device specific and all the themes list the ROMs which they are build for.
So why the need to list the device?

yeah man. its a real mess.

i was just thinking it might be easier for some people to just scan for HTC Hero (or whatever device) instead of glazing over the diff build numbers and names, but u do have a point
kinda redundant i guess huh lol
the thing that bugs me is that its just all lumped together
kinda lame to have to scroll through a buncha stuff that doesnt mean anything to me to pick out what does
p.s. just flashed android stock 2.0 *thumbs up*

WHere do I get HTC Hero themes??
Are there any out there... seems to me all the good themes are for the G1

Help Please 7 months later and it's still confusing..

it's impossible to porting this g1 themes on hero?
i really like a lot of themes for example darchstar but i can't morph it on my hero!!
I can't create themes but for me the images on framework-res are similiar on all devices
-sorry for my bad english-

It's only gotten worse for the hero. There is the gsm version and the cdma ones. There is also 1.5 and 2.1 out plus the custom roms such as Fresh and Modaco. Haven't seen a theme for this yet.

Go to the Themes subforum for the Hero. You are not going to find metamorph themes or very many flashable themes, but you'll have several options to apply ROMs with themes already in place.
If all else fails you can create your own by pulling files and packaging them up as a theme you like. Be sure to give credit where it's due.

I've ran Nexus Themes for Cyanogen and a couple from here.

I think you need to add things like:
If you want a stable Android 1.6, Then you will want myns warm donut
If you want a stable Android 2.1, Then you will want mssmison's eclair
ect....
Say what things like crobs tutorial is (nand install instructions)
lay it out nicer instead of it being in a paragraph. Put things in one line format. ect..
But this will get lost in the sauce without a sticky.

I understand you want this to remain near the top, but adding three consecutive posts isn't the way to go about it. There is an edit button for this purpose.

but edit wont bring it back to the top im just trying to help clean this place up a bit cause people keep asking the same questions over and over and then they get an attitude about it when you kindly ask them to search.

I'm entertained by your response, and here's why. You say you kindly ask people, but I'm failing to see that anywhere. Let me illustrate:

In both these examples, I don't see the word please, thank you, or even a question mark. You're not asking, you are presuming people are ignorant and rudely telling them to do something they may have already done, without bringing them any closer to a solution. That's why people get upset.
If finding every answer is as simple for you as you imply, you should either help them find an answer or do not contribute.

discussion over. let this thread either get deleted or pushed back. im just gonna let the forum get overun with the same questions. i dont even care anymore

not the attitude to have, I been here and there on these android threads for a long time now. It would be great if you get this stickied but all of these references have been referenced oh so many times already, It doesn't matter how many times threads like this get posted people are naturally lazy and don't know how to do things for themselves its a trait you have to teach yourself when you are very very young These people are not going to search or read they are going to go for the easy out and just ask all the meanwhile pissing everyone off. I say just go about what you do and ignore the same old same old, let them learn, some lessons need learned the hard way.

This is what Myn has been up to Lately with his Evo

Thought I would show you guys what Myn has been working on this summer for his Evo. Great Job man. Wish you had an incredible. Good luck in the future.

he actually showed me a screen shot a few days ago and i told him that i wish he had a hero haha
come on incubus if anyone can port a build to the incredible its you,
i also hope you dont mind i did a little updating to your RLS12 of super Froyo

I dont mind at all. I'm really not going to have much time for the vogue anymore anyways as I will be focusing on the Incredible. If Dzo releases a new Fresh Froyo, I might make a rls16 but other than that, probably not. Thanks for all of your efforts. Much appreciated.

i would actually like to thank you not only for your builds but i actually found an old theme porting guide that you posted on here and it used it to do my first theme port it worked almost totally without a hitch

lol. I just went back and read that theme porting guide that I typed out and it seems alot more complicated the way I wrote it. Im glad it worked for you. Glad you were not intimidated by it. Maybe it needs better wording.lol

haha it really wasnt that hard esp since i had used 7zip a few times before

WOW Myn has been hard at work.
one question please:
from a hardware stance the desire and incredible appear to be similar...
will the roms will cross over as well? due to upgrade soon and want to keep my options open
thanks in advance

tips the scales
wow, i was kinda iffy on getting the evo when sero premium became available... in less than 10 minutes... this definitely tips the scales in favor of the evo!

Thanks for all the kind words guys .
I really miss the Vogue forums and this great community.
Incubus, We need to talk Warm TwoPointTwo has been ported to the HTC Incredible. I just need to confirm it works.

Hero is definitely a different animal! I'd love to see it on that device though.
INC and EVO are so similar, porting is litterly a 1 hour process.

Hey Derek.... I'll trade you my hero for your evo?? The hero is way better, you won't regret it lol

I've jumped ship to the EVO myself and I am running myn's RLS1 (and eagerly waiting for RLS2). Rock solid, fast, and stable as anything you would expect from myn
His thread is about 127 pages long at the time of this post, only after a week of being released ... I guess he is becoming quite popular there too
Good job, myn!!

[Q] Just got an HTC HeroC, root and update?

First post here
Had a Samsung Moment for my first android phone and had messed with it but was very unhappy with battery life. I have gotten (a used) HeroC and am looking to update to 2.2 or higher if possible as I would like to have the app2sd option since I am running out of space stupid quick. I am not looking for anything fancy although Sense would be nice to keep. So with this in mind I have 2 questions.
1. What version would you guys suggest.
2. Where is the best and easiest instructions to follow to do this.
Thanks!

First, the best advice you'll ever get on xda is search and read. Second, aospCMod 5/16 is 2.3.4 and based on CM7, it's amazing. For the sense look go into general android themes and apps and look for sense theme chooser themes in the theme chooser sticky thread. I hear NTsense is nice.

NTSense is wonderful. Combined with lpp Widgets, it is the closest you'll get to Sense without Sense.

That is where it becomes very confusing while searching. So I find the following link http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=CDMA_Hero_ROMs which shows "aospMod - (11/5/10" but you suggest aospCMod 5/16. Also I am seeing references to radios? I do not recall stuff like that when I was messing with my Moment.
Not trying to be difficult, just trying to understand fully before I do this. I am not planning on getting into trying a bunch of different ones, I want to pick something that is solid and reliable and does not break anything. I see some references to the camera and other things not working sometimes.

This wiki will get you going in the right direction for a load of aosp's gingerbread rom.
Then you can use the NTSense theme to get your sense feel like others have said.

Thanks poashll. Was able to follow and almost everything is running smooth. VVM not working but I know there is a fix for that, just hard to understand the instructions. My other issue I want to get fixed is with the clock. I can pull it up but if I try to set an alarm it force closes. I find no threads on this issue.

aosp just dropped a new ROM, grab that one, it's 5/23.

Thanks for the heads up! That fixed the issue with the clock. Still working on getting Sprint vvm working. Ustream app is also broke with this but that is not a big concern.

I am pretty sure he is not asking about ETA's but rather if they have anything BESIDES Zero Hero in development or if that is the only ROM they are working on!

its the same thing asking when any rom will be out is just rude now lets not post in this thread anymore please.
