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.
You might not have seen my main post on my Performance Audit, so I thought i'd post a seperate topic.
Basically i've been auditing the LG ROMs for performance tweaks today, and I came across a monstrous cockup by LG!
On device startup there is a piece of code which looks to check if the device is running an engineering build (this is set in the build.prop). If it is, then it sets up the system as such that dexopt doesn't happen at startup (which is normal), but happens on the fly. This is fine for engineering builds, but for user builds, it's a huge and unpredictable system overhead.
Now, in my audit I discovered that LG have manually changed this code to always return 'true' instead of looking at the build.prop! So the device always runs it's dexopt in engineering mode (no pre-dexopt). Crazy!
This explains the slowdowns and random weirdness we have been seeing. I've reversed 3 LG builds and they all have this problem.
I've now fixed it and i've implemented the fix in my Fr7 releases but, well, bad LG!
P
PS For the techies amongst you, let me post the code snippets below.
The 'stock' Google code (smali):
Code:
const-string v5, "eng"
const-string v6, "ro.build.type"
invoke-static {v6}, Landroid/os/SystemProperties;->get(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/String;
move-result-object v6
invoke-virtual {v5, v6}, Ljava/lang/String;->equals(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z
move-result v5
LG's code (smali):
Code:
const/4 v5, 0x1
LMAO!

Well, that may be caused by the high pressure they have to release a "final" ROM from the marketing department. If u think about it a moment... the LG Optimus Speed is the first real DualCore Tegra device which is launched worldwide now. I think that the devs could do a better job if they have the time for.
But anyway @Paul:
I think they should send u a crate of beer . You're amazing!!! Keep going so hopefully we will have Gingerbread asap on our LG devices...
Heh...
I was discussing with a guy on a danish forum about rooting and custom roms, he couldn't see how private persons ever could make roms that was _better_ than stock roms. "They dont have the same ability to code and design something that complex"
Well, he should read this thread, lol

In the 80s I paid a visit to IBM UK's techies looking for some new kit on which to run a fairly obscure language (which I still work with today!)
They had some fancy dual processor kit (imagine!) but the language didn't seem to run in more than one thread.
Out of interest they looked at what it was doing through their fancy disassembler and it turned out it was scanning the keyboard several times a second - and then checking if it needed to.
Quality coding - horse, cart...

Hi Paul !
Nice work !
LG sucks !
I flashed r7 now, but the laggyness in the UI is still there.
I´m using Facebook & Twitter Widgets @ one screen each, and one Screen for my Apps.
Whatever i do, appdrawer open or what else, its not lagfree. It seems the Speed from the Box is disappeared. Is it possible, in your opinion , to get this phone lagfree in future ???
I came across this by just screwing around. I think all android phones have this little easter egg
Go to the about phone/tablet section then where it says 4.2.1 tap it repeatedly until it the little jellybeans show up.
back out of that
now you can go into the daydream mode and youll see Beanflinger as an option. im probably way too late on finding this out but in case people were curious i didnt really find anything with a quick search on beanflinger

? That IS the operating system. U can't remove it. What u are talking about is the Android open source project. Or aosp. It doesn't exist for the US version of the j7. U can theme your phone to look more like pure Android. Download the lawn chair launcher from here on xda. Then use it as toucwiz. Or use my pixel rom . I would get a new phone. J7 sucks man. If u like Android get a Nexus or pixel . Honor has potential too and same price as the j7

Okay. Forget what I said. I was using your Pixel rom, but I have three HUGE issues. 1 is I cannot download Amazon shopping, and can't download web browsers [nvm fixed it], I can't answer calls correctly, and the ui feels like someone sped it up. What I mean is the loading symbols are cats on cat nip, the animations are active, but too fast, and the lockscreen lags. alot.
I'm just going back to stock and using Gravity Box.

U didn't read the Official post. U have to select phone in default applications, it's a pixel UI port bug.u can't use Amazon ? That's weird. And yes everything is way sped up. That's what I do. I make phones fast and battery's last for way longer. Xposed will slow it down to a creep cuz that's what Xposed does... And the lockscreen is a nougat bug.
FYI, read posts before flashing...like the majority of them.. this is all in there..hope that helps

There is a V50 forum, but it's lonely there.
Most apps from later LG models can't just be installed on previous phones, as is. Yes, there are a few exceptions, but usually a dev has to get involved to remove restrictions. Was that way on the later Motorola cameras which Moto no longer gave updates to the Moto Quark (Droid Turbo/Moto Maxx/Moto Turbo phones). We got the updated cameras thanks to "porting" them, until things changed TOO much and it was no longer possible.
Anxious V30 Magisk module has cameras from LG G6/V40.

I'm interpreting he meant to help V30 by providing apks for V50 features. A lot of people request stuff like that, and a dev could possibly "port" some of this but needs access to the original files. So, these are the original files and something possibly can be done with them in the future.
And yes, people who request it expect it to be delivered on a silver tray ready to install -- but that's not how it works.
Yes and also I get bored, it's like we are 3 who owns it, but I'm the only one active on the forum. But the v30 has pretty solid forum.
