hello nobody has any help for me
Probably better to just go back to Sense. Although the GE is good the One is better with Sense IMO
Go back to sense, cuz the looks of the one matches the look of sense, GE looks out of its place on the One

I caved, rooted and flashed rodriguezstyle froyo rom and overclocked to 1.1gig . i like it but im looking for some other things that would be compatible with the rom. if you guys could steer me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.
1. Desire Notification bar
2. trackball wake device
3, 720p video recording
Rotating home screens + launcher like froyo = ADW Launcher/Launcher Pro
Black Status bar = requires root
Media player = nemo
Trackball wake = requires root
With all that said, you should just root your phone. HTC honors rooted phones if its the hardware thats faulty.
It's pretty hard to mess up your phone software wise, which is the only thing that voids your warranty (software screw up).
awesome!!! thank you. i like this phone more and more, really like the launcher, any idea how i can use the trackball to activate the unlock screen instead of having to press the power button?
found nemo here, its really great, better looking than the ipod app on the iphone and does photos as well.

Requires Root
Lol rooting seems to be the thing you need the most here..
ive actually found apps like LOCKBOT from the marketplace that let me use the trackball to bring up the unlock screen but there seems to be a delay and it makes me use theyre themes.
honestly i think ive get everything covered i can live without the black status bar for now but i might get bored somewhere down the road and just root for the hell of it
FlyScreen also has wake on trackball, although I honestly wish I could disable it, I think my case probably wakes the phone and it doesn't go off until the set delay time, which I have set to 2 minutes.
ScreenModeWidget does it too, I set it to 'awake stay' and it wakes the phone with the trackball and bypasses the lock screen

No Lock from the marketplace, can be used as an app or widget, no root required.
Disables the lockscreen and lets you use the trackball to turn on Nexus One.
As for your launcher, it's ADW.LAUNCHER that looks like 2.2

bump, little help here
I searched for this but found nothing, is their any mod or app that has a press to unlock feature? Instead of a slider, just a press to unlock. Thanks for any help in advance.
i think widget locker may have that option using the hardware keys rather than on screen touch
yeah it does, im really wanting to find a on screen button. i had it on my old iphone 3g which i just cut on for the first time in over a year, and relized how nifftie it was lol
I like your icons btw
Hi!
I'm thinking about buying HTC One, but I dont like the way buttons are arranged. So:
- Can I activate the button behind the logo and set it as a HOME button?
- Can I set the original Home button to work as a MENU button?
And one more:
- Is the notification light capable of other colours aside orange and green?
Thanks

1. Yes with a custom kernel/ROM
2. Yes HTC allow you to map the button to act as menu if you like (I did this when I still had my One)
3. No, that's all you get (it's not RGB)
Well, I got a feeling I can get HTC One X with nearly the same specs as the newer HTC One has without all that button-hacking hassle. (And on much lower price...)

I can't compare phone here (forum rules). But I personally had the htc one x and now the htc one. My advice stay away from the one x. Why? PM me if you want to know
What he said it's way better the HTC One, it has 2GB of ram instead of 1GB from One X... i've had both and i kept the One

Sorry to be annoying, but do I undersandt it right I could get this 3-button configuration on the One?
1. Back
2. Home
3. Menu
?
You can have it as follows:
Back button = back a screen (as usual)
HTC logo = Home button (by using a custom ROM/kernel)
Recent app button = Press for recent apps, press and hold for menu

I usually prefer stock Android to Sense BUT I do regret selling my One to get the Nexus 5. It was a cost thing really but might come back once the M8 is released
I just want to ask you guys if you have experienced this. The pull down navigation bar is not working. And sometimes it'll flicker between activities and freezes. I need to push the power button off and on to work again. I tried some google search and answer and I can see that other owners of HTC One are experiencing this problem as well.
I have tried the drawing mode using HTC Function Test *#*#3424#*#* and also in editing photos using the draw option, but the line is not drawing in the pull down navigation bar. It seems like there's an invisible bar that covers the navigation bar.
Anyways my phone is not rooted. I am using the latest version of Kitkat 4.4.2 with htc sense version 6.0. My phone is not under warranty anymore because it's already 1 year.
Is there any solution to this problem? Thank you guys for the answer.
I am running stock GPE android 5.1 (though my phone came with Sense). I want to change the capacitive buttons to match the normal google layout i.e. I want to enable the htc logo as the home button and change the home button to display recent apps. Is there a simple kernel that will just do this and nothing else? If not is there a simple kernel that will just enable the htc logo as a button and not give me options to overclock or change a bunch of other stuff? Thanks for your help.

I don't know exactly if you can do that specific option with this kernel, but ElementalX has the aroma installer so you can leave everything stock without having to overclock and you enable just the features you want. I'm running it with Logo2Menu, so maybe there is an option to change the button arrangement. Doesn't hurt to give it a try.

You don't want that feature trust me. It doesnt turn the logo as a button, but puts the sensor a little bit above it, so when you are typing you accidentally open the stupid menu and hit something random, and next thing you know, you are in a video call with someone from madagascar. Trust me dude, you dont want this stupid feature on the htc one m7.
You can also just enable soft keys too instead of using the physical buttons.
There is an app somewhere that actually uses the space above the logo, but this is different then the kernel. I just used the elementalx kernel (which was my backup plan if I didn't find something better). I can't do logo2home and home2recents like I wanted to, but I don't have any problem with accidentally hitting the logo button instead of space. I guess this could be because I usually swipe to type, but I'm testing it now and I have to be off the screen before it hits the button (though just barely). Overall I'd say definitely worth it for me.

Yeah, but if there's already a space for the button...
