Doe anybody know if this is possible? Now I only got the background on the hometab, but it would be nice if it is shown all the time... A quick search didnt do the trick for me
id also love to be able to do this, anybody have any clues??
Yeah i would like something like this too.
Maybe even an option to have a different background pic on each tab, so say i have a Dark Knight pic on my home page behind the clock an stuff when i move across to say settings for example i could have a different pic there instead of the plain black with the squares underneath!
bump, the more ive thought about this today the more i want it!
/signed =)
Looked in the files, but have't found a way to do it :\

Me as well, did a quick look around the picture files and was hoping that it was just a normal background picture, but I had no succes as well :S
well i assume it wud jus be a case of replacing the image of the grey squares wherever that file may be. for having different image per tab would probably need additional software i would assume. then again, im just guessing. gonna keep this thread open because this is something i really want on my diamond
I'd also love to get an answer to this.
This is not possible till now.
If you use the search, you will see, that it is not possible to change any graphics of touchflo3d till now.

Ah ok, I assumed "This is not possible till now." meant it was not possible before, but it is now. Very confusing lol.

Lol, that's exactly what I assumed. The 'till' made me think twice, but getting back on topic. I'd love to have this also.
another vote from me also. this would be a nice bit of customization to have..

Sorry that may bad english confused you all. I meant: It is not possible at the moment.
Hi.
Anyone knows if it's still not possible to change the background on all of the tabs?
This would be a very cool feature
it sure would! And I’ve seen a lot of people asking for this feature, so I’m surprised that non of the diamond experts has figured out how just yet.
sushilange and D-MAN666 are figuring this out right now ...
They are developing an app to change the manila files...

I see a lot of porting and creating being done such as Hero roms, Blur, Pulse, and everything else we can get out hands on (and I'm thankful for all of it)
But I was curious if we could make mixture rom with a little bit of everything.
I really like the Pulse's Canvas 3x3 home screen display
And the Behold ii's Notification bar with shortcuts to the wifi,gps, etc.
Hero's this
Blur's that.
Etc.
Would if be too much of a mess with framework and odex's files to mash into one rom?
Highly possible, and very easy... All you need is the source code to all the ROMs you are mixing.... So let me reword that - Highly impossible, and very hard.

lol Nicely put
EDIT: WOOHOO POST 1000
It might be possible but I think we'd struggle to fit it on a g1 anyway.. By the time you've ported all the neccessary framework to support everything, I think you'd be way past the 90-odd meg we have to play with.... and that's assuming all those packages would play nicely together in the first place.. I'm not about to try it.
Aw shucks, it's a beautiful idea though you all have to admit lol.
But ok well my minute is up I don't mind this thread being moved or deleted thanks guys

And that, dear boy, is why your updates failed. Past about 92 MB you exceed the system allowable update size. We haven't gotten an update that installs directly to the ext yet, although we could do it that way...

XD hahha. did i mention i love you twisted? your post quality is off the charts
In all seriousness, though, get an update.zip to mount the ext before install and you could put the apps directly on it and just symlink the folder temporarily for first boot, then let the system remove and recreate the link...

That's true. I think we really have something here. Perhaps this thread could become a think tank for getting 100Mb+ roms working. Yes? The only thing is... we don't have a 100Mb+ rom to work on... Hm...
there's a rom floating around here that manages something similar, it's a hero rom with hero apps and the blur launcher with some mixed anims and visuals, a personal favorite of mine, you should check it out, I think it's by diaztradeinc, but I'm not sure, I'll look it up and let you know

So edit the update-script and set the symlinking on the firstboot.sh?
format everything lol
we could format the whole g1 and add the stuffs that we need
or format a 2gb and up sdcard to ext3-4 and put everything on it
I was planning to that. I was trying to put all files from the g1 hard drive to my sdcard but ran out of space. In theory it is possible but you will need a very motived dev to do this.
I think this was the one, but now that I saw it, it looks like this one uses a rosie skinned like the blur's launcher. I remember I had seen another one that actually used the blur launcher on the hero apps/framework, I'd need to dig a bit deeper

oh, and, honestly, even if we had the source for every single release, I'm very, very sure you still wouldn't see some sort of mashup rom. Why? think about what has been done so far with the available source from android? Other than a few modifications to Launcher, mms, phone, and settings apks (and stericson's lockscreen mods), there's been very little done from the code. Why? because most people here don't even know java. Having the source would still be useless to most people here, let alone actually making something out of it. So, actually, in the mean time, it seems that if this is going to work, the way it's going to be done is the easy way, the way it's been done up to now, just mash things together and force them to work.

Nah, that wasn't it. Most (all?) of drizzy's roms were a joke anyway. I have the rom somewhere in my computer (did I mention I have like 30 GB of roms that I've downloaded? basically, if it's on androidspin, it's on my computer too), so I'll look for it.
To be honest guys I don't think space is a problem at all.
While everyone is going around asking if the g1 will get the 2.0 update I'm very confident we'll be running android 3.0 on our g1's eventually we'll just need to figure out a way to put it on the sd card which I'm sure we can figure out.
It's a shame though, I was hoping we should manage something like that.
A home replacement that uses the Pulse's canvas
Some editis to the notification bar.
Etc etc etc.
But I guess it ties into what someone said about not knowing how to write in the specific code needed which is understandable.

Not yet...since ive been here reading and following along (+ testing ofcourse ) for over a year now, people have progressed amazingly here! More and more are starting to figure out that this is something we all should invest in. Give it more time, more people will learn or come through that are genius coders.
Down the road I absolutely see people writing their own androids, like linux is now. Distributions (or highly modified current builds).
Sort of how hero changed everything, we had the basic one tab at the bottom, then all of a sudden this came out and we had many tabs and new interactions.
Anything is possible with this, just give maybe another 6 months, but def. a year will bring some talent through. Just hope the g1 holds till then
The purpose of this thread is to ask questions regarding my Blue_Haze ROM, all information for which can be found here:Blue_Haze.
03/26/2010 v0.5 Posted.
****** Any Requests? I am running out of ideas ******
Oh my gosh, I'm glad to hear that you're doing better.
Welcome back, Dr. Clover. Glad to hear you're doing better. I've always liked Blue_Haze. I may not use it that much anymore, but it's nice to see the progress you've made on it.
Do you have a theme for 2.1?
If I remember correctly, he put Blue_Haze for OpenEclair on hold until it's more stable. I'm sure he'll step in and correct me if I'm wrong though.
I just flashed this themed rom and i got to say i like it a lot ........ But should i chose to go back to stock cm 4.2.15.1 do i need to do a full wipe or can i just flash with cm updater ??? Also i reverted the ram hack thru terminal can i reactivate it thru terminal also?
Wat roms do this work for??

No, since this is built completely from CM's source, a wipe is not needed to go back. To redo the ram hack, just flash the ROM again.

Damn you, i did the hack and now my phone won't boot up! Maybe that only works on real ROMS and not your crap one! You stop claiming yourself as a real "dev", till you make things completely compatible with the standard stuff!
**UPDATE**
it works provided you don't have any of the previous ext stuff set up.
**UPDATE2**
rhcp0112345 has put together a *nix / osx based version of the script.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7582553&postcount=37
**UPDATE3**
anomalous3 made a modified version that uses bind mounting instead of symlinks and will remove the init.d ext version of apps2sd. NOTE: ONLY FOR PEOPLE WITH THE init.d ext hack!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7583566&postcount=51
**UPDATE4**
I tried it using rhcp0112345's version and I'm now getting over 2100 in quadrant, w00t!
**UPDATE5**
rhcp0112345 posted a one click .apk version

Interesting. It should work fine. I considered that angle, but the bottleneck seemed to be the flash itself. The **** rfs filesystem could certainly be part of the problem though. I'll see if I can work something up that uses our existing stuff like the init.d so we can fsck the filesystem before mounting it to make sure it doesn't get corrupted. It would be nice to not require partitioning as that step seems to confuse the hell out of people for some reason. The down side is possible delays from traversing 2 filesystem drivers, but Quadrant at least seems to like it fine. I wonder how the general lag is for them now, benchmarks aren't everything.

Haha thats true but developers especially ones that make ROMs go thru testing and risk their DEVICES to make sure that nothing is going wrong and all that before "releasing" it. Although this isn't a release of his works he could of at least tested it without telling other people to go try it out, but im gonna sit here and wait for a status report.
same here! i really want this to work for the vibrant.. will keep an eye on this thread

but now were all sitting here watching and nobody is trying LOL. (i haven't even rooted my phone yet)
quick question plus off the topic so dont get piss off at me. anyway can i partition my sd card the old way. as of just putting the sd card in my g1 and use amon ra recovery to partition it can i do it that way??? thanks for anybody that can answer this for me.
Yea, I tried something similar yesterday and my Quadrant is at 2100+. It's the same idea, just not from him.
Very interesting. and very smart done.
HMM! time to test this baby.

Does anyone know if you need to revert JAC's kernel and the EXT-hack script thats included w/ it prior to trying this?
I ran the fix and I got 1700 in Quadrant... hmm I wonder how I can get it above 2000...
Edit: I rebooted... now got 2153.

Well looking around in the HeroC Section there are a lot of 'Wallpaperless' (transparent) Lockscreens which i realy like But the trouble is that they are all at 2.1 and will not work on 2.2 / GSM heroes, it's like the one vilain rom has on Super Vilain (seems ages ago now) and im wondering could this be done for Froyo on our heroes? Has someone already done it? Or how could i go about this my self and edit the services.jar (The file required to be modified for this to happen thanks
