Looks awesome Sam is the notification bar flip flopped?

The notification window animation still needs some work, if that's what you mean..

Is there a reason the HC launcher is not being used ?
Probably because of the missing dependencies.. You can't simply copy/paste the apk.. I wish it were that simple...

I really like this thinking. I only have limited experience with Honeycomb, but there's some question in my mind whether 7" is too small for Honeycomb and Gingerbread will be a nicer experience. Honeycomb clearly rocks on 10".

Looks awesome. I assume you went crazy with the framework to do a lot of this. Any suggestions for someone just starting out with framework editing? Ive looked a bit at the code, and its a bit intimidating, probably because im not sure where to start. have any advice or resources for us mortals? Thanks for what you do!
Read The code is explicit and commented. You can use a search tool to find string instances, depending on what you wish to change..

Do you have a flashable zip? I would love to try this out! Awesome work!
How did you get the bar on the bottom? Can't wait for your rom
Nook Color via Xda App
There's an app called Plug In Launcher that I find might be useful to combine with your nookcolorUmS app for those having problems mounting sd card. it launches an app when you plug in a usb or head phone Jack. If you devs can find a way to activate a microphone in the head phone Jack it might activate a telephony program also. And yes, waiting for your rom anxiously

very exciting, I am enjoying CM7 right now but if I could get the 'back' button on the bottom that would be awesome. Love your work sam and I can't wait to see more of this.
am i reading this right?
When cm7 hits stable your going to make a heavily styled cm rom with hc features? Or you're going to work on the hc rom?
I guess what im asking is should i look more forward to cm7 stable or hc asop?
I think sam is saying that he'll build a more tablet friendly rom using CM7 once they get it stable..
I know I'll switch to HC when they release an AOSP rom for the Nook Color..

you should just check out HC on the nook if possible. i really do not think 7" is too small for HC, especially since the nook has such a high resolution display.
I'm not sure there's a point in making a flashable zip of this right now. This would require an update every time a new version of cm is released.
If there's such an need for it, I could release a RC1 version. But nightlies I doubt it. Sorry.
Moreover, the notification panel is everything but slick. It needs some coding still.
And this thread is only CM related. Nothing to do with HC.

Can this possibly work on Froyo?
Well its always doable. But the framework has changed since 2.3. So the changes will have to be done differently. Haven't looked into it. To be honest, I don't see much interest in working on froyo when a stable version of GB is one the way..

While I'm at it, is there any other feature someone can think of that they would like to see added/modified in CM7's UI?

Does anyone know if these screen animations are available for the Inc S?? I think it's pretty cool and I'd love to know if this works for the Incredible S.

Yep. Those are on CyanogenMod 7. You can simply enable them in the Cyanogen-menu. But it's also available for AndroidRevolution HD (CRT-Screen Animation). Works very nice

Do you have a link to AndroidRevolution HD (CRT-Screen Animation) for Incredible S?? I can find it for ARHD 5.1.1. but I'm using the Incredible S version 1.1.3... Are they the same??
Sure. I had ARHD since i rooted my phone (as alpharevx launched public). It's a very nice rom - the best if you want Sense. But i'll never regret my switch to CM7 (about a month ago). It's totally smooth & faster than any rom i had before. Also the configuration possibilities are amazing.
In ArHD you have to flash that animation seperately. In CM7, it's included.
Yeah, you should be able to install that animation, cause it's linked in the IncS-thread. The files for sense 3.0 are the same for the IncS and the DHD version.
P.s. if you still have questions, feel free to contact me

Awesome thanks so much man, I may just have to try out CM7, I've been thinking about it but I didn't really know how they compare. Thanks again for the feedback!!
No problem. Yeah, you should really try out CM7, it's definetely worth it. I just updated to Nightly #46, and all nightlies were stable for me without any force closes. Daily use

Hey, Im having an issue with the crt animation, after I flash the crt animation for desire hd on my IS, the 4 buttons doesn't light up, and the worst part is I didn't do nanddroid backup before I flash the crt animation.
Are there any way i can get all 4 buttons back?
Hey man, I tried out CM7 last night and I must say it seems really really god and fast so far. I love how everything is darker and easily themed. Thanks for the push
@wpra3: try to reflash ArHD without wiping.
@johnblundon: yep, that's pretty cool in CM, that makes it kinda 'clean'. I think the first setup needs a little time, because some settings are on a different place, but then, it's just perfect & fast. No problem

Because the DRHD (the mod is taken from that version) doesn't have the rotating backlight.

Hi everyone, I'm throwing this thread together for those of you who want to get the most out of ice cream sandwich there is for our vibrants right now.

Directions... Download everything you need from above. Place them all on the root of your sd card, EXCEPT the MIUI theme. Place the MIUI theme in the "theme" folder located on your sd card in your MIUI folder... sdcard>miui>theme.
Do a nandroid back up, then a factory wipe. Format system and cache. Flash ICS vibrant fixed. Before rebooting, flash Vibrant ICS.. Fix permissions. Reboot.
Now, to set your theme. After your done with the above steps and are booted up, go to "themes" app. Look for "black ice" and hit apply.
Your almost done. Next open your favorite apk manager (I use astro) and search for ics launcher. Install ics launcher and presto! your done. Restore your back ups as usual and dance around the room. Now all your friends will be jealous that you have ics (sort of) and they dont.
Make sure you follow all the credit links i have provided and thank everyone! I am only the messenger. These guys deserve a standing ovation, or maybe a pepsi at least?
Please let me know if any links stop working or if I have missed something. Thanks! Enjoy!

That's just an emulator launcher, it's not the real, official ICS launcher.
I'm pretty sure devices with buttons won't have those.
BTW, the GalnetMIUI ICS is not real ICS. IT is GB with ICS framework merged into it.

Yeah, i have a ICS theme but my notification tray looks different then yours, ie the icons are smaller and date is moved. Yours looks closer to android 4.0.
Lolol, I'm a loser.
Going out with my girlfriend in a little, when I come back, I'll link you guys to everything. <3
I'm also running a full ics experience. I have a JVT simply stock rom with ICS theme that I found in the i9k theme section. I also have an ADW theme to emulate the icons as well. I'll post screens and links if anybody wants them later when I get to a computer.

I like CM7, but it's not very appealing to the eye. It's fast and all that but I'm looking for a ROM that's both beautiful and fast and of course stable. I'll think of ICS when it's much more stable. Maybe I'll run MiUI again. Oh, and it must have trackball wake. Or maybe it mustn't, so what about sense?

For my money CM7 is the best ROM. With so many themes and mods around it's up to you to make it look how you want it.

Ok, thanks for your input and thanks for the link.
What's the stock gingerbread firmware (2.3.6) like? Never tried it as my phone was delivered with cyanogen's CM7 build a few months back. Now, I run samuaz's CM7 build, though.
If you can recommend a better/faster CM7 kang/build, feel free to share.
Since CM doesn't pump out "official" nightlies anymore I've been using
temasek's kang build.
http://www.mediafire.com/temasek#2tyt9uzxa9ahx
another option is Euroskank kang builds
http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/gigglebread/
They're both good.
I am quite the fan of MIUI Roms. Currently I use QND MIUI found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1084726 it's beautiful on the inside. But dress it up however u want using the theme manager. Or dig around on XDA for miui theme.

N7 dpi is 213 so its HDPI
Looking at some of things most of them are already possible without this. And some of them are just buzzwords to get you excited. Its a cool concept it might become something worth looking into later but right now im not too sure about it.
