I can't seem to find the battery use app that breaks down battery consumption by process. I can find it from the Launcher.apk, but I can't find it from Sense. Can anyone help me with that? I want to stick with sense since I cant find the 4G and Hotspot toggle icons from Launcher.apk. I want to have my cake and eat it damnit! help I found it from Sense once, when I got a lowe battery warning.

Hmm really confused. Are you talking about an App's widget that you don't remember the name of? Or are you talking about Settings->About->Battery->Usage
Okay ya the latter. Last time I found that manually it was blank, I must have been charging . Using that info I finally found the icon . Too bad I can't find the HTC widgets while in Launcher, but I'll just pray for a public root and 2.2 ROM

Found this looking around the forums runs smooth on the bionix 2.2 build...install then reboot for smooth runnings...enjoy.
Might need some minor tweaks but looks clean.

Nice, I'll try this. Downloading now. Thanks for the heads up.
Yea I'm running it now...thinking of some tweaks needed for memory and style on the widgets but other than that running like silk.

Did you have to rename the file to install?
EDIT: nm, didn't read.
Phone icon on launcher does NOT work
I was just gonna say that. Dialer shortcut not working.
I can't log on to FB from the widget. But so far I like it. Looking good.
looks good... Thanks.
wow looks nice i may try this in a few days still thinking about going obsidian so this may be my launcher of choice for the new build
Yea dialer is broken but ill see what I can come up with...at work now ill see what I can fix after I get home and get the kids in bed...haven't had time to look at it too much yet

I tried it yesterday and it was a pretty cool concept. You are right about needing some tweaking though. It would be awesome if this could take the place of Touchwiz in a 2.2 ROM. I might have to get out the good old Rom Chef handbook...
The launcher needs to look different imo, everything else looks good. I like how swiping up brings up the tray that's pretty slick. I'd be happy with the stock TW launcher look to be honest.
has anybody found a work around for the Phone button?
I when into Super Task Manager and I see the Phone.apk, because on the original Thread said to rename it to that in case it didn't work but it is already Phone.apk.
Phone Button is like Froyo launcher2.
You will need to smali it & edit to according.

yes sir.
Just got home and kids refuse to sleep atm...yea a simple rename is all it is calling for a simple rename of the phone.apk should fix the issue I just haven't torn apart the launcher apk yet so I'm unsure of the name if the kids crash out soon I can start the digging...lol...gotta love kids...they are like living with full time drunks....you never know what they are going to do next or where they hid you power supply for the laptop at...

Just digging into it myself - 614,165,225 files in there - any hints where it is in there?
Edit - Are there apps or system files that rely on "Phone.apk"? Will it be easier to change the name that dell looks for rather than changing the name of the apk?
Edit 2 - No luck here...
Been digging threw lines of code in the launcher looking for all the files and apks it calls for might be a day or so before I have this fixed...back to 18 hour days at work do this will have to be spare time project...

Running this now. Phone icon works. All widgets besides music, which gets immediate force close when trying and facebook not login are working. Pretty smooth. Im getting some force close on miuui music player, could be unrelated. Fairly useable on my superfast vibrant, froyo of course : )
p.s. Ill try to dial this in some more.

Hi guys, the flipout is now very cheap indeed in the UK (it's around £50 with Orange PAYG). I managed to lose my previous phone under a train and so I've been looking at this.
Is it worth picking up this phone? I gather from looking at the posts that it can be unlocked and rooted.
Some (noob) questions:
1) Can the phone be unlocked for free? Can it be done by debranding it?
2) Can you install a different launcher? A search on the forum doesn't say anything about changing the launcher.
3) Can you get rid of Motoblur? i've never used it but it sounds ****.
Thanks in advance guys
1. dont know!
2. Launcher Pro is very nice. many thinks can be changed and its very fast!
3. dont try the motoblur free versions of the flipout..there are many bugs with connection and akku standby! i have the italian rom installed with the update of 1.19.2 and i ignored motoblur. i have deleted all widget with motoblur and use the widget of the launcher pro which can also connect to facebook, twitter...and in my opinion your contacts will be clean..if you use motoblur it will add facevook contacts to your normal conntacts...
Yeah, LauncherPro and ADW work perfectly for me, just make sure to delete all of Motoblur's widgets and ****. Juicedefender Ultimate helps as well, for saving battery.
I got some issue with Launch pro.
When I press home button to return from some apps, the screen turn black and the status bar rotate to the side of the screen, and after probably 300ms, it turns back.
Not a big issue, but pretty annoy. Using ADW launcher without any issue. Much smoother than the stock launcher.
I'm back to the stock Launcher. My problem was that with any other Launcher, from time to time a process called "android.process.acore" would start eating cpu.

Could you explain a bit more? What are the problems? I have the moto free firmware installed. Problems I heard about are
1. something about not using all channels, which can be solved by modifying a file on /system/etc
2. Whenever you install a new firmware, the battery meter gets out of sync and need to be reset. There is an app on the market for doing that.
Are these the problems you are referring to, or are there others?
Thanks!
@ ghostwheel
ya, these are the problems! and you´re right..it can be fixed. i only wanted to say that you can use the original firmeware without motoblur by ignoring it. so you dont have to fix anything and you can use the 1.19.2 update. sry for my bad english =/

Hey ghostwheel
if tried the motoblur free version now.
to use alle awailable channels i have to modifi the baseband file, right!?
which app do you mean for reseting the battery?
[Q] is there a way to change what is in the "quick settings" tab in sense 3.0?
I want to add vibrate and remove sprint hot spot since I use wireless tether instead. Is there a way to do this? I searched but either there isn't anything posted or I'm just a terrible data miner.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm running Synergy RC1
I would like to know this too.... I dont run Sense on my daily ROM, but if I switch back to one this would be helpful.
Me too. This is really important for me.
Sent from my HTC EVO 4G.
anybody out there?
I think you have to edit the systemui.apk with apktools, have no clue on how to go about this though so good luck
Actually if you use the Synergy Updater built into their rom, then you can download a quick setting replacement "theme" . I use it on my evo 4g.
great, thanks for that info. Exactly what I want..although need to find out if that theme works with RC2 now
Can we install themes on stock-non rooted phones?
Can any1 answer?

Hi mate,
It depends on how intrusive the theme is, in other words, if it is going to change settings and notifications menu, then u need a root+deodexed rom which can accept most of the built themes.
try to install a launcher like Go or ADW launchers, then change their theming options, this will keep u happy
Edit: However, if u decided to jump to the world of custom roms, then the sky is ur limit
for me I rooted my previous gs2 but after replacing it (due to speaker problem) I still dont find a reason to root+custom my phone, its gr8 out of the box.
p.s. dont listen to junky users who r *****ing about the performance of the phone. they r crying about things that they dont mind if the name of the device name is Iphone ,,,,,,, coming from sgs this device is a real replacement for a computer OTG
Hi dr thanks for your reply,
I absolutely love my phone so no complaints about performance at all! I am not into rooting my devise,just wanted to change the notification bar ie battery icon but thats it, I'm very happy with touch wiz etc best phone I've had!
So how easy would it be to just change the battery icon to be like the one on the sgs1?
@drreality +1 man! True story.
To change batteryicon im pretty sure you need to root as the icons are placed in the system folders
Ah ok lets say I pluck up the courage to root easily,how would I go about downloading just a battery icon and install it with stock Rom?

There are lots of apps on the market that can give you another battery icon in the status bar without rooting, although they won't replace your defaultbattery icon, so you will have 2 battery icons, one on the left part of the phone and the default one in the right part of the notification bar.

Hello guys,
im quiet new to xda and to rooting as well.
i read, tried to inform myself and then tried rooting and flashing a custom rom becaused i really liked the idea to discover new features, looks and to empower my device.
anywayi rooted my device, backed it up properly and searched for a custom rom where i found xnote Rom and really liked it.
i flashed it with twrp and it works fine i just wonder about a little issue i have now but cant remember if its there from the start (since i flashed it this morning) but i guess it occured after a few and not immediately.
getting finally to the point, on the top left corner of the screen there is a white line just when the display is about to end, i dont know how to explain it better (the old iphone jailbreak (3gs,4) had a similar line in the middle of the screen when booting while the apple logo appeared, if this might help someone to figure out what i actually mean).
i made a screenshot from my homescreen but i doubt its visible from there because of its thinness, i tried to give you and idea of its location with the red arrow though.
i wonder how to fix it ? should i flash again or is it even a well known issue?
help appreciated
thanks for reading

It's a battery bar, some user doesn't like the usual "Battery" icon on the notification and want minimalism instead. So they remove the those icon but need at least an indication to know the battery levels.
Imagine the whole top line that showing up is your battery life.
