[Q] 2.2.1 Application Menu for 2.1 - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone ,
Every one who installed Froyo 2.2.1 to his xperia x10 know that the application menu look really sexy. It seems like it's a cube that is movine up/down.
Is there any way to port this to 2.1? I hope you understand what I mean x)

You mean the app drawer? if so, then you can use one of the best ones e.g. LauncherPro+, ADW.Launcher EX.
And enable the '3D App Drawer' in them.

Yeah thats it, thanks

[Q] Launcher Pro not working on X10 mini/mini pro [ANSWERED]

Hi fellow X10 mini (pro) owners
We already know that there are problems with finding all apps and games, as most won't show in the market.
But now I want to install Launcher pro (which i found on their website) and it can't be installed.
Is there a way to change things to apps that they can be installed or is this a really a screen size problem for which it won't work?
Anybody els tried to install it?
It is only made for Android 2.1 and 2.2.
X10 is 1.6 (Donut).

I should have known, but I'm so used to having 2.1 on my HTC hero now that I forgot that there was an older android on some phones.

Me too
try adwlauncher, works awesome on my X10mini
its free and you can download it on the market
have fun
I use Home++ beta which also works very good.
I recommend HelixLauncher Donut - works great
ADW and Helix works perfect.SlideScreen is interesting but need improve.
Well... Proclaiming that Helix Launcher works perfect is somewhat of an overstatement...
It brings two nice additions to the table:
1 - Several widgets on one screen (Allthough it is impossible to achieve good looks in doing this, since most widgets are not well adapted to the small screen)
2 - All apps on one long page in the drawer...
Everything else is equal or worse than the original SE homescreen. It is a little bit more laggy than the original (sometimes - definately not noticably smoother/faster at least), and you loose functionality like beeing able to uninstall app's easily (two-click operation on original) which you will be doing alot when playing around in the market...
If the 2.1 update from SE adds theme'ing, multiple widgets and the possibility of a one-page app drawer, then there will be no point in installing these third party home screens for any other reason than adding a little fiddle-around-effect.
But... Who needs a better reason anyway? Check them all out, that's what I say )
Just to let you know, I have x10 mini pro and it works like a charm! It actually made my phone just x100 time more beautiful and useful.

Themed Blur launcher-Request

Hi All,
Since most of us have been moving to US Tmob and GB froyo, the blur launcher has been tweeked and made to work like a gem. It is really smooth and I do not find necessity to go to Launcher Pro.
Walter had previously put out a themed blur launcher like this one for his MS2 ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743372
Unfortunately it cannot be used on these froyo builds. Can anyone please theme the stock launcher please?.
I tried many times on all froyo builds to make the themed launcher work but could not do so. Walter had given a zip file to install it from CWM but that kept bricking the phone and I had to use alternate launcher to keep the phone running and flash an sbf.
Can anyone do that pleaaase ?
Im with you on this one too. I actually like the original blur launcher but it would be nice if you could actually change the assignment of the right hand button to go to text messaging or setttings etc..
Wondering where walter is these days. He can help if he sees this.

Dialer app

after installation of Swiftdroid 2.0 4M, the dialer application does not have T9 support so the calling is bit harder, i tried to install glass dialer i found here, installed it with recovery (the newest clockwork that came with the installation), it says its successful but when i restart i have the old dialer. Is this glass dialer not compatible with swiftdroid or there is problem with the clockwork? or any suggestion for good T9 dialer?
if you want a new dialer app download go contacts its a great app
Id like to have the dialer that was in Gt540 2.1 version if anyone could share it here ill be grateful, or if someone can tell me how to install the glass dialer, coz more of those custom applications are ether too colorful or slow, or just add t9 support to the one that is integrated in cm7 swiftdroid 2.0
I do too like 2.1 dialer and contacts search box, im testing quite of few , also i found a tutorial that explains how to modify themes and apps. I'll come up with something usefull i feel like working on that today.

[Q] Old-style pull-up menu

Hello,
I recently got an Xperia X10a and upgraded it from Android 1.6 to 2.1. Everything works great except I am wondering if it is possible to change the new menu back to a pull-up menu like the 1.6 version had. I'm sorry if this is a noob question but I've searched all over these forums and even Googled it but could not find an answer. I don't know if there is a simple way to do it or if rooting and modding is required, but I'm willing to do whatever it takes.
Also, what is the simplest way to change the lockscreen back to the original 1.6 style?
Many thanks in advance!
Lockbot Pro does the job for lockscreen..!!
Thanks, that seems to solve my lockscreen problem. Now the phone is almost perfect.
It would be nice if I can figure out how to get the pull-up menu back. I know it should be possible...

Firstly learn to hit the thanks button in return for some help and secondly the pull up menu was a part of 1.6 launcher.. i think that's not possible unless custom launcher devs like adw etc make some provisions for it..
Hmm, well isn't ADW open-source? Maybe I'll be able to use that to make a pull-up menu myself. After all, I do have some coding experience, it should be possible...
Also, I don't know Android too well yet, but if I root my phone then what's keeping me from modifying the launcher directly?

if you know coding.. then there's hope..!!
If you want to do that i hope you are well skilled in coding...
BUT: I think there'd be no other way to get what you want...

[Q] Stock SE SMS/Dialer/Contact for CM7 ?

Hi !
Everything is in the title
I'm looking for SE stock apps to use them as replacement for SMS/dialer/contact, because I don't like the ones built in CM6/7. So, is there anyone who have managed to use them with CM7 ?
Thanks you in advance
BTW : The stock 4 corners launcher would be nice too
(Or maybe we should wait for the next x10 mini/pro and get the new rom to butcher it and port it to our phone :/)
I am looking for it too please
T9
Can't help you on the stock progs, but, take a look at Go SMS Pro and TouchPal Dialer. I found them way better than both CM and stock dialers/sms

Indeed, Touchpad dialer is fine, even if the fonts are very small :-/
Go Sms seems good too, not totally at my taste, because again of the fonts' size, but it would do the job

Well.. small screen - small fonts
Have you figured what to do with with the in-call screen? When I use in-call dialpad (to browse throught voice menus) the bottom rows (7890) are hidden ...
I use external keyboard for that..
Any ideas?
Thanks
Not a clue :-S, sorry

About that, we know now why SE did choose the four corners ui xD ... To gain some place for things like a dialer :-S
