Hey everybody, I'm new to the glacier. I actually traded my vibrant for this phone. I loved my vibrant as it was easy to flash roms and such. However with the new vibrant 4g on the horizon I felt a change was needed.
I must say that I'm very impressed with the feel of the phone. I do have a question though,...when I go to the market I'm still on the old market and not the updated one. Is this normal for the glacier? If not how do I get the updated market?

Th only way that will happen is if you find a way to port it over. It was tried on the Droid but was not very successful. Your best bet is to either buy a HTC device or get widgets that look similar.
Your best bet would be to just use launcher pro.

I wanted the power of the fascinate used with sense but got I gotta pic and choose what's more important. Thanx guys.

The power of the Fascinate would never be used in Sense. Its used in....games
I believe someone, maybe even a couple people said they would attempt to port over SenseUI when Froyo is released. Don't know who they were or if they still intend to do so, but I think there is a thread about it in the development section somewhere as people were looking for the new SenseUI from the Desire HD.
Might be a port one day. Lol. I'm not sure why though when there's no shortage of HTC devices.

Im all for performance, I like to get the most out of my device. I also like my interface to be the best looking to show off So with that said what rom in your opinion has the most speed, and stability, as well as all the apps running flawless ie: any video chat, flashplayer setcpu(no crashes) etc....
YES!!!!! i have read through the forums and i think i have almost every rom downloaded to my sd card ready to flash. Just getting mixed reviews based on alot of roms. Waiting to complete a trade over in the Marketplace and when i receive the Mytouch i want to flash something that will shock and amaze me right away.
What do you guys suggest and why? Thanks.
I say the stock rom that came with the phone and install SPB mobil Shell 3D. It is wicked!

15.00 app though.
Flash them and try them. Everyone is different. Don't know until you try. I go through a rom every couple days.

Big fan of faux's orange roms, both glacier and sense. Extremely fast and stable.

Its all personal preference... personally... I would rather slam my **** in my dresser drawer than be stuck on a sense rom. My wife on the other hand can't stand aosp roms.

Using the thunderbolt rom. And Ice glacier. Mainly thunderbolt though.

You really just have to flash them until you find one you like. That's why we try to release so many. Everyone had different taste.
Download quadrant from the market and try them all out. I have been getting my best scores from faux orange roms, cm7, ultimate droid, and now evil dhd 4 ext rom which was uploaded today.

I finally just got an update for the ookla speedtest.net app from the market! The interface is all new! Yay!
going to check this out
I didn't see anything new to the app other than a cosmetic change. Meh.
Nothing looks much different since i last used it 2 weeks ago lol.. either way, I'm sure this isn't G2 specific, any reason why it wasn't posted in the apps/games forum lol ?
I just didn't think to post there.

Just wondering if there is a free eclair launcher? There is one in the play store but its not free. I tried pushing one from another rom but it didn't work.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA
My mistake...
Really I wasn't asking for a cracked or pirated app. Just wondering if their was either a way to make a stock eclair launcher work and/or a third party launcher that will work. Please do not assume I was asking to steal anyone's work.

For the record I do not pirate so I am slightly insulted that you would come to such a conclusion.

Well your OP does sound like you're looking for the free or should I say... cracked eclair launcher...
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
I was asking for an alternative, I am sorry maybe I should have specified. Take for instance I know of three gingerbread launcher in the play store 2 are free where as the other charges $2.00. I also should have made a seperate question is there a way to make a stock aosp launcher compatible with gingerbread miui? It was my fault for not wording my question properly.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA
I've just closed the report. Just to clarify, I share the OP point of view, about he is asking for a free alternative rather than a cracked version.
Thanks to both users who enforced the forum rules compliance, but I think this is just a misunderstanding
Glad that got cleared up. I just looked around on Google for awhile and couldn't find any free, non-pirated eclair style launchers. Looks like you might need to shell out the $2.
Why doesn't the launcher2 from a 2.1 Rom for a different device (found in /system/app) work
--sent from my glacier.
Alright sorry OP, my mistake...
Have you tried taking out the eclair launcher from a eclair ROM (if you can even find one...) And installing it as a system app? Make sure permissions are set to rw r r
Also...out of curiosity... Why eclair lol

Maybe he picked up a phone running eclair and said, "Hey, that's a nice launcher." I've done that before. Not with eclair specifically, but the same principal applies.

Honestly just wanted to go old school lol. Paying $2 isn't a big deal its just well it's not like I plan on using it that often or for that long. I like to change my themes/launcher often. One of the reasons why I love Android over other OS's
About pushing the launcher from a previous rom and pushing it to the system/apps via root browser and adjusted the permissions and it didn't work. I didn't try to use adb..up until recently I didn't have adb on my computer until a couple if months, so I am still very new to it.

A little late now but that has the stock eclair launcher.
I still can't figure out how to push it successfully, set permissions to Rw r r then used root browser to push it to system/apps am I missing something?

Also is there a way to make miui look like froyo or earlier? I know their is a CM theme, but I see nothing for miui. I am far from a pro much closer to noob lol. I just want a stock Retro theme at the moment while still using miui. If not guess its time to reflash CM
