[Q] froyo lockscreen for 2.1? - Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is there a way that the lockscreen for froyo can work on a 2.1 ROM? it might be the same as the regular vanilla lockscreen but the froyo one has some good animations and it makes the current wallpaper in the homescreen as the lockscreen one. so is there a way?

I'm not positive but I think the answer is no. Froyo uses API level 8, 2.1 uses API level 7.

^^check out this thread, It is pretty much the same as your question but he is trying to get the froyo launcher on 2.1 instead of the lockscreen.
PS:You should just use a froyo rom, their are some great ones on the forums.

ok thanks i would use froyo but theres alot of downsides to froyo especially on eris

Like what? The only problem I could think of was camera preview not working, but that has been fixed recently.

i have that for 2.1 but i tried froyo and i like how the lockscreen hides the homescreen using the current wallpaper and it has the music controls. also i can add my own message on it

White widow has the same lockscreen it may be a cyanogen mod thing.

can i extract that and install in to any rom?

[REQ] Samsung Galaxy S 2.2 LockScreen

Hey, I saw the lockscreen on the 2.2 Samsung Firmware release for the international vibrants.... I like how that looks and how they jazzed it up a lot better.... Is there anyone here that can rip that and build it into an update.zip? Thanks!

Do you have a picture or a video?
Haven't seen the lockscreen for 2.2, but from what I read, the 2.2 lockscreen is kind of buggy in the leaked 2.2 build. I'd just wait for now.
Maybe put a request for Widge Locker to make one.
Heres a picture of the 2.2 Lockscreen, the "<<<<< >>>>>" arrows are a lit animation
If that's the only difference, I can easily wait

Why would they add arrows? That's lame. I sweep up. Wonder if they changed the puzzle lock also?
Sent using xda app....
Are you sure that's not just the lock screen that the international has always had?
The arrows are animated, lighting up from inside to out but i really dont think its worth the trouble to port this.
I have this on european galaxy s with 2.1 rom. And there is still the "puzzle" effect if u have some notification.
wasn't sure if this was in the 2.1 or not on the international version.
Bell Galaxy S Vibrant with stock 2.1 eclair, I already have the animated lit arrows.

Fastest ROM

I am sure this question has been asked, but what is the fastest ROM out there at the moment. I want one that is fast. It can be with or without sense. I don't mind. What are your opinions?
Probably a gingerbread rom because it seems to get higher benchmark scores or froydvillain a 2.2 rom
tasty ginger 2.0 from raduG seem fast.
Elelinux-7.0.0 this is the rom I am using and it good
here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=932377

Wow, just after I created this questions and no one answered I decided to use Elelinux's other ROM and it is quite fast. Even the live walpaper I have doesn't slow down. (I have the matrix one not 3D one) it works a treat. I will try the one you are using to see if there are any differences.
Yeah but widgets list and windows animations on elelinux rom are not smooth. ;(

Sorry, excuse me for the dumb question, what do you mean widgets list and windows animations? Is that when you change screens or something like that?

Widgets list - list of widgets when you are adding widgets to homescreen.
Windows animations - example in Settings -> Date & time -> Select date format - this window is animated. In Elelinux (and other gingerbread hero roms) animation of this window is laggy and uncool.
In my opinion the fastest is Cronos Froyo 1.8.0.

[Q] Custom ROM but 2.3 Stock SE theme?

Hi!
For obvious reasons, i want to switch over to a custom ROM, most likely Z's CM7. However, I am dead addicted to the the SE stock UI (UXP, if you may say). I just love the blue backgrounds everywhere, the messaging interface, the phonebook, the music player and the dial screen, and I don't think I could live without it.
Is there a way I could integrate these UXP elements into a the CM7 ROM?
Can i just copy-replace the framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk and other apks (phonebook.apk, semcmusic.apk, phone.apk etc) into /system/ folders? Or is there any other workaround?
I am wondering the exact same thing, just installed CM7.1 and dont like the dialer at all, really miss the SE dialer and messaging etc.
If someone could assist that would be GREAT!!
Woldbreaks custom rom maintains the SE UI. You could give that a go! It's one of the main reasons I went for it myself.
Try Erickwills EWJet with full SE option, uses original styles, but is super-smooth

Ok i checked the screens & the descriptions...its very much the original SE UI with custom tweaks. One question - How's the camera on this ROM? Does it work normally (8mp/720p HD)?

It works perfectly fine, since it's stock ROM!

There's a little confusion here, which is understandable.
Everyone is assuming the OP wants Stage UI version 1.6, and based upon his original post I would have as well. But that's not what he wants. What he wants is the drop-down tab bar that appeared on Dell Streaks running Donut (Android 1.6). As you can see the version numbers are the same.
Unfortunately for the OP, there is no version of that tab bar for 2.2.2.

My apologies, i didn't realise he wanted that.
You cannot have some things from Donut and Eclair, your options are, find a alternative or downgrade, downgrading is crazy though... i like the Donut screen lock, but i wouldn't downgrade to Donut to have it.
No I didn't want the tabs, as i said earlier, because in the other thread it was clarified that it can't be done in later FW-s
I only want a launcher which can really use the landscape mode, cause I use my devices in that position only, and the stock 1.6 launcher seems to be really good at that, buit all the launchers is optimized for portrait use, so they not very good at accomodating landscape

[Q] whats the best rom for the aria?

hey guys was just wondering what do you think is the best ive been using nightlys for ages im thinking of changing?
what do you think i should change to?
Well, in my opinion it's a taste thing. Like what is the best color?
I have tried CM6, CM7, and Liberated Aria FR008. For my taste, I like the latest CM7 stable release 7.1.0 the best in terms of interface, settings, battery life, etc.
I was a Sense rom fan for the longest time but with the latest CM7 stable release, I have to say CM7 hands down. As TR_HTC said, it is simply better in all the categories. I only miss some of the Sense Widgets and apps but nothing that I can't live without.

No. You'll just have to get a theme for the rom or launcher (or a new launcher if anything). See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970459 (you still won't get sense widgets though).
