Very nice - I've been wanting this as my background.
This installs simply by running the .apk?

Super choppy w/ the UV (no-OC) kernel here. Not sure I like it anyway though... just not quite my style.

You can uninstal the apk easily.

Works great thank you!

I'm clearly doing something wrong. The file doesn't open.

it's a live wallpaper. you don't "open it"
install it, and change homescreen to a live wallpaper... it's there

i just installed and it sent my phone into a reboot loop, had to do a nandroid restore.

I get a message that says the content is not supported on this phone. I downloaded it anyway. It's not in the livewallpapers.

New ROM

I am currently running SkyRaider's Vanilla RC3 and LOVE it! I am looking for a new ROM to play with though. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Virtuous 2.7 running Kings #4 kernel is what I'm rocking right now, if you're into a Sense-based ROM it's quite good

CM6 is a must of you don't like sense like me
The only thing I like about sense is the clock and as you can see below I've got that covered
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

I tried an aosp rom the other day, Ruby. It isn't quite stable yet (random reboots throughout the day) but its an interesting change of pace from a sense-based rom. The super smooth scrolling is really nice too!
In the end I went back to SRV due to the instability, but I made a nandroid in case a more stable update is released.

Whoa that sense clock is stunningly close to the official! Could you tell me the name of that widget? I've tried fancy widget (rides too high and close to the notification bar) and Weather & Toggle Widget (background cuts off at the bottom too short). Both are similar but not faithful to the original.. the one in your screencap looks identical to the original HTC one, minus the color scheme of course.
I'm a graphics guy so yes I am super picky

Back to topic: +1 for Virtuous 2.7, but prefer Adryn's kernal.

I didn't do it personally
But the easyest way I heard it to rip the .apk apart with a program like a zip extractor and edit the files from there then rezip them and digitally sign the application
Again I can be wrong but if anyone knows how I would like to learn the exactly correct way

This is correct. You need to unzip it with winzip. Go to the \res\drawable-hdpi and edit the .png files that you want a different color. Then you need to use winzip and zip it as a .apk file then have it digitally signed and then zipalign it.

I have a nandroid of Virtuous 2.7 on my phone. Once I went Vanilla it's hard to go back to a Sense ROM. I think I'm going to give CM6 a run, but I have heard a lot about the instablility of AOSP ROMs and that kind of scares me. SkyRaider is rock solid, and would hate to go to something that's not stable.

Redemption
I've bee pretty happy with the Redemption Rom. Why?
Depending on what you want, stock app-wise, it's easily customizable as far as adding/removing what you want. Same story with the 'value added' goodies Lou bakes into the ROM itself. He included several apps in the load that I didn't know I would want or use, until I tried them - now they seem essential to any ROM, imho.
It's easily customizable via the links he provides in the main thread, and there's elements you can easily add/remove based on where he put them in the ROM itself.
For me, this one's my daily, and if you like sense, there's a menu of tweaks/options you can do with this ROM to make it all your own.

Agreed, Redemption is a great one. SR Vanilla, and Virtuous are also great. I'm loving Redemption though, great goodies, smooth, plus love the lock screen and notification window.
I do love SR's boot animation, with the Androids popping up...
Sent from HTC Incredible, Redemption 2.0.4, King's BFS #5 kernel OC to 1.113, s-off

The only thing I have against RR, (minor, to be sure), is the lack of support in ROM manager. I'm lazy, sometimes, and like to check for updates through it or am at work and don't want to bother with a mobile browser. I'm currently switching between Virtuous 3.0.1 and Shadow ROM.

Word! Thanks for the heads up. I rocked this launcher hard for a while but ultimately had to switch it up because it wasn't being supported at all.

I've been running LP for a few months (love it). What do you guys like about Zeam? How does it compare w/LP?
Thanks!

Interesting, didn't realize it had been abandoned. Been using it since I found it on my hero. The best. Everything I do need (lotsa small icons in dock) and nothing I don't.

Zeam pretty much doesn't have any special features at all. Vertical scrolling app drawer. I loved it because it was so lightweight and I keep six apps in the dock. Super no frills.

What kernel are you using? I've heard of gallery problems with tiamat. I have no trouble with the gallery, maybe try a different kernel or try 7.1.0 RC1.

I've never encountered a sluggish CM7 release, from 7.0 to the latest nightlies. If you're going to the trouble of wiping everything, I'd upgrade to a newer version. Nightlies thread is in the development section.

Most "sluggishness" is generally unmodified adw launcher. Dig in the settings of it and play a little. I personally prefer and use lpp, so I can't help with that too much.

Just a quick tip, the default gingerbread gallery is slow as **** if you have a lot of pictures, hell even if you don't it's slow as hell. My recommendation is to get quickpic from the market, after you use that you'll wonder how you ever lived without it.

Nexus s launcher

Does anyone have the actual launcher for the nexus s that doesn't look low res on eg22. I usually use the eugue373 gingerbread launcher from the market but it looks low Res for some reason. I know it was like that on ef02 and marcusant had it working correctly. Any thoughts?

There are two gingerbread launchers on the market. You might try the other one.

Just use Sprint ID. Search for the "Clean" ID and apply it. It will give you the *real* Gingerbread launcher.

No, it only gives you the gingerbread phone icon and app drawer. Id icon is still on the tab.

Bumping this.
Does anyone have a clue how to make the reg aosp launcher work correctly. Marcusant has the only rom that uses it. His Bamboozled roms use it as well and it looks great. I've even tried pulling the apk from his rom and just installing it on other ef02 eg22 roms, it works but looks like crap.

Not trying to be a troll or anything but AFAIK the only difference between the Sprint ID launcher and the standard launcher is the Sprint ID icon that cannot be changed, the menu and desktop UI is the same.

My gf has the nexus s 4g so I can back up her launcher and post it here later on tonight

I probably should have stated I tried the actual nexus launcher from another thread on here. As well as the 7 homescreen launcher, same issue. Very strange. I'm sure it's something minor causing it. I think I may just ask marcusant on acs's site.

I've used the one from the nexus s on my epic before and it worked well..... ill put the apk up in a few
Nevermind I can't find it but ill keep an eye out for it and/or ill try to mesh an apk together that will work

bonsai b14. I'll get it a shot again though. I'll try flashing again though, I have it on my sd, but who knows, maybe I flashed the same one again. I'll let ya know
Just flashed it, very cool with 7 homescreens. Still does the same thing though. It's not super terrible looking, it's just the icons when you hit the drawer, they show up and they are like low res looking. It's been discussed before and marcusant said he knew how to fix it. I'm going to see if I can just get any info out of him on the acs forum.

Dude! Thanks you so much. Worked like a charm. Awesome.

the post says it's for 2.3.4, so i'm not sure if it works on 2.3.3... i'm in the midst of cooking up my own rom.
If someone could test and let me know, i'll probably package the launcher and 3d fix up for flashing.

I just flashed it on eh17. Works great.

EH17 is 2.3.4, though... Was wondering about 2.3.3
I'm sure someone will test on other builds... All good.

Not sure. But at one point I attempted to pull the system/lib/egl folder from marcusant's anonymous i3 ROM (it had a working stock launcher) and replace it on eh06, didn't work. Ai3 was 2.3.3. But I was trying to put it in a 2.3.4 ROM. Needless to say I don't know what I'm doing. But maybe that folder from Ai3 will work do for all other ef02 roms if this zip doesn't.
Out of curiousity. Now that we have this. Does anyone a zip of the actual nexus s launcher. I'm using one I found on here but its not completely stock. When you go into landscape mode it turns into the froyo launcher.

Just for kicks, i went and downloaded a Nexus S Stock ROM... Come to find out that the landscape view on it is Froyo look aswell. The GB Launcher on the market seems to just be a slimmed down version. I'll zip the fix and launcher up and post in Themes.

Oh that's super weird but it makes sense cuz of the lack of a keyboard. Good stuff though.
