Let's mod GoLauncher - Motorola Droid X2

Is there any possible way to edit Golauncher Ex to use the system ICS transitions instead of the gingerbread zoom?

Oh dude, search this in the X2 q themes and apps section. Can't remember who but an awesome theme ICS theme was found that featured ICS transitions and transparent menus.
I'll try to find the thread for you.

Here we go. The title of the thread says the theme is for CM7 but never discusses if that is the only rom it will work on. I'd give it a try regardless of which rom you are on just please make sure you nandroid backup before doing so.

Nice find. Thanks!

Hey, thats my thread. lol. That mod unfortunately wont do anything with Go Launcher since Go Launcher has its own built in transitions and it doesnt let you disable them. The only way to get it working with Go launcher is if the developers make it possible to disable transitions or add in ICS transitions of their own.

Exactly why I thanked you under your download link. This is a very cool find, although you have no idea where it came from, lol!
I wonder if a adw or launcher pro allow you to disable built in transitions. I've always wondered so many people like those launchers, this maybe part of the answer.

I hope they let us. I emailed them with the suggestion.

Greatest Theme/Mod ever "Sweeter Home"

Hi.
I had Sweeter Home on my G1 and now i got the legend but never could find any mod nor themes to my liking and then i found out my fav app is also available for legend so i just wanna share it since there is almost no limits with this app.
U can make ur own theme on the phone exactly the way u want it to look.
well if u haven't tried it before then u wont understand what i mean.

No, I don't think so. It's just an home replacement! Install and enjoy
Hi.
Been doing some research, and have another quick question. Is this one like launcher pro and ADW Launcher? How do you compare the three?
Thanks
Yes, exactly. They are all three home replacements. I'm not sure how it works, but I think it runs over the existing homescreen and creates a customize able menu for you to set up with themes and settings.
I have tried this "sweeter home", and I find it a little buggy and hard to work with, but with more things to customize. I think that ADW Launcher and Launcher Pro are better home replacements, they are more stable and very easy to customize...
There is actually many more home replacements out there...
I would recomend you to try them out and find wich one you like the most
I'm using OpenHome at the moment.
Thanks man.

Same animations as ApeX on ANY ROM

**UPDATE**
I came across this http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...-window-animations-stock-rom.html#post1058483 over at droid forums. I love the new ApeX ROM that Fabolous made for the DX and ported to the D2. But, what I really love about it are the animations. Well, this works on any ROM, and the link will show you how. Im running Fission 2.2.2 with these animations Fabolous made, and I love it. Check it out..
I came across more transition animations over in the D1 forums. I am using these right now with fission, they are more dramatic than the other ones but still cool none the less... http://www.droidforums.net/forum/koush/104329-miui-style-window-transitions-cm-6-1-a.htmlThey are in a framework.res apk for a D1, I pulled them to make it easier to install, just unzip the file. You can use it with any rom, just like the others.
Ok, here is a direct link to johnclevenger's post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9391661&postcount=1 , There is a few more choices for animations there, as well as some pretty detailed instructions. Also, if you want to just add it to a rom or theme you are gonna flash, here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9933395&postcount=31 is the instructions how to do so. Enjoy!
Nice find dude! Thanks for this!

I think I did something wrong. I added it and some of them work but not all of them. For example when I go into the settings menu and hit back, it just does the default animation rather than the flip and fly out.
i have the fission themes with these animations built in but i dont know the rules about posting other peoples work. all you would have to do is flash them in recovery. anyone care to let me know how to go about doing this? ill pm angdroid and see if it would be ok to post them.

Make sure you have All Animations selected in Settings>Display>Animation. I had the same issue until I turned the animations on. Works like a charm now.

your right thats how i do it
This is very very nifty, one of the the one things I wanted really bad from ApeX. Thanks a lot for alerting me to this
hey, cool ... i really like this .. this is one of the reasons i liked apex. another was that i could use the nextheme theme w/it... sadly, it didn't have the speed or battery life of the fission!
now if we could get nextheme theme w\fission 2.3.1, along w/this fly-in anim ...Now, that would be Super!

That's actually what I've done. Most recently I've flashed 2.3.1 and NexTheme and actually replaced the anim folder on BOTH and with both still had the same issue. Every animation works, except when I press the back button to get back to the homescreen. Maybe there isn't supposed to be any animation there but I thought it was in the video that was posted.
There is actually different animation packages, this is just one fab put toogether. In the thread I linked there is a link to that thread...whew, that was a mouthful there is no animation when backing out of the app drawer with the one that's posted

Nooo, not the app drawer. Here I'll tell you what I do:
Code:
Click settings icon on home screen,
Press the Back soft key.
In that order, lol. If you open Settings and then press back does anything happen?
Nope, nothing happens. I never really noticed. I think he picked the right animations though, this package isnt overkill like most of the DX roms. Some of those roms have 5 transitions per screen...
Ok perfect, thats what I was trying to figure out. Then...no issues for me

[Q] Question for Wolfbreak - CM 6.1.3 V053 ROM

Firstly, thanks for the awesome ROM.
Secondly, as I'm a new user I'm posting here, rather than replying to your thread.
Thirdly, my query. I notice you have asked for ideas for your new ROM. How about including Go Launcher EX as your default launcher. It has heaps more functions, more useable and much prettier.
If that's not possible, can someone tell me how to remove the default launcher as I'm using GO Launcher.
Cheers.
Why do you need to remove default launcher? Just use GO...and forget about default
Use Titanium and remove "Sony Ericsson Home 1.0".
Ok thanks. So if I Uninstall SE home it won't break anything?
I could just ignore the stock launcher but just figured if he's modding his rom then he may as well leave out the crap.

Woo it will break on boot!
* haha just kidding. Just remove it doest affect anything
Nothing will happen if you do remove the stock launcher provided that you have its substitute already installed. I find the arc launcher very smooth and good so I wont be using my launcher pro plus.

[ROM] Android Phone 7 [Synergy Base, DeSensed, Stock Lockscreen]

DISCLAIMER:
Guess I need one of these... IF this breaks your phone.... I'm truly sorry, but thats about Ill i can say.
You know the risks.
But this rom should work pretty good out of the box... PLEASE WIPE Everything before saying there is a bug, that way we can keep things simple
download
here
INFO : Ok, So let me start of by explaining. I know this is an android forum, but if anyone likes the minimalistic look of windows phone 7, which I do then try this rom out and let me know....
It's not like I custom built this (I'm not that knowledgeable yet), I took the synergy base, removed all the htc stuff like the lockscreen and rosie launcher and added in Launcher 7. The free one, I am in the process of getting permission of the owner of the app (though I dont know why he would mind, it is pretty much increasing popularity for his launcher).
I plan on adding in widget locker as well I need to get permission for that too, so It might be awhile.
This was just a little project that would be an easy way to get a windows 7 looking phone. If no one likes it then let this thread die and ill try later....hahaha Till then I'm uploading it now and should post the link by tonight.
ScreenShots uploading should be posted in a few.
All thanks to
Synergy Rom
Launcher 7
IF you like the launcher get the pro version.
Click HERE if you would like more icons for launcher 7 it's in post 2 & 3.
Changelog :
Upcoming Version:
Trying to get a hold of the dev to see if there is a way to include a theme for the launcher 7 so it can look more stylish.
Need to get a hold of the widgetlocker people to see if they wouldn't mind me adding it to the rom.
I set up my android environment finally, I am learning.... its just a matter of time.
1.0
Tried to remove as much SENSE as possible without getting FC's
Stock Lock Screen
Launcher 7
To Change your Lockscreen wallpaper:
Go into launcher 7 settings and choose "Change Wallpaper" and choose the one you want. "If you leave the "Background Color" as black, then your launcher 7 background will stay black and your lockscreen will only change. You change "Background Color" to "System Wallpaper" Then both will be the same.
Bugs:
Only 1 that I have noticed so far is the music app wont start off the homescreen, you have to long press and remove the widget. Then add it back. Please let me know if there is any other bugs... My DSL connection tells me there is like 3 hours left for uploading...
nice can't wait

thanks for giving us props man ill check it out when my phones on for more than five minutes
looks very interesting, thank you
You guys have a really good base, thanks for all your hard work.
Haha, nice idea man. If you could either mod the AOSP lockscreen to look like WP7, or include another like you are planning, that would be cool.

It has sense taken out, and standard lockscreen. There is not that much of a difference though I plan on changing it over though so there will be a big difference soon.
Great idea-Thank you!
I flashed this rom, the only issue is the one that you already mentioned on your first post, thank you for being creative, this is totally different than anything else.

[Q] Which ICS CM7 Theme Is This?

I've been going crazy trying to find a thread or a link to the market (I mean Play Store...screw it, Im still calling it market) but I cannot find this theme anywhere. I was just searching for themes around the web a little while ago to see if there were some good ICS themes that werent in the market. I found this one that is really awesome, beautifully done and I even think it added the ICS transition effects. I cant remember where I downloaded it from. It could even be a theme thats in the market. I want to figure this out because if this is a theme still getting worked on, I want to know about updates. And if it is a paid app in the Market, I want to pay for it. So if anyone has any clue about what theme this is, I will be very grateful. Maybe some of you are using the same theme.
I dont have much to go on, but the theme is a transparent theme. Almost all of the backgrounds in stock apps and third party apps are semi transparent and shows the home screen wallpaper. The default battery icon is a circular icon. And I'm attaching a screenshot of what it shows in theme chooser.
Again, if anyone knows what theme this is, maybe you can link me to where I can find it. Thanks everyone.
That pic isn't the greatest...but I think that might be the ICS launcher. Its really isn't the greatest launcher choice but its the closest I've seen to the full ics layout. I know you were looking for a theme, but that may be better.

Thanks. But I'm talking about a CM7 THEME that you install through the Theme Chooser. Not a launcher. The screenshot is just to show what the theme chooser shows when applying it. I know its not much but if anyone needs more screenshots to determine the theme, let me know and what to take a screenshot of.

Sent from my MB870 using xda premium
Heres a few more. The dialer, Settings menu, and a popup notification. The background in those screenshots is just my home screen wallpaper. its not part of the theme.
When you pull apart a cm7 theme apk and repackage it, it will show up blank in theme chooser. Sooo.... it could be anybodies. Check and see in Play to see if it matches other ics themes. It might be sonnys. (Yeah, I totally said Play instead of Market.)
Hmm havent found one that allows that level of transparency.
Ill keep looking.
I'm starting to think now it might be a theme someone took and made changes too like was said. I looked in /data/app/ and saw the apk labeled as "com.uotkitchen.theme.icsandwichtransp026build318-1.apk". This theme should be available somewhere. Too bad I cant find where I downloaded it from. Its a very nicely done theme. I cant stress that enough. And it DOES add ICS transistions.
