I'm currently back on the HTC ROM but I would assume you can still run any of the home replacements from the market (or just the default android one) on MoDaCo.
do you know any good ones?

It's really a preference thing, there's no harm in installing any one of them and seeing if you like'em. Sense really is the better fit for me.
Some of the major ones are:
- OpenHome
- aHome
-dxTop
- PandaHome
...that's just off the top of my head some of the ones I've tried. They each have some cool and unique things about them.
Once i figure what can me skinned and how i will be making themes. Not sure if i will post any, as i must have made at least 100 themes for S2U2 for personal use when i had my WinMo phones. If i did do one to post it would more than likely be a Danbo (Danboard) theme.
I just discovered that little guy and i already outfitted my chompSMS with several wallpapers of him.

aHome Lite made my Hero so laggy i could hardly use it. It took me like 10 minutes just to get it uninstalled.
Also, when i was searching for OpenHome i couldnt find the actual program, only themes. Anyone know the official app name?
lol if you figure out how to make a theme you should defiently make me one

I didn't have much trouble with aHome, odd.
Any home replacement will be difficult to find on the market if there's a bunch of themes with the name in it sadly.
I almost forgot a few more too:
- Freshface
- GDE (though I don't know if this one is out yet)
As for OpenHome, fire up that barcode scanner and go here:
http://www.androidtapp.com/open-home/ It has QR codes to scan and will take you straight to the market app.
which one do you think looks the best? and is the fastest

I thought I recognized you from PPCG!
I used to have a Diamond and even made a few ROMs using some of the great kitchens available. It would be awesome if there were some kind of kitchen for the Hero. Hell, I might even give it a try then...just don't tell my wife, she thinks I quit cooking.
lol you got the hero too?

There is a kitchen, its called Android SDK and you can use it with eclipse. all you need to do is go grab the source from htc and compile it the way you want to and load it up with eclipse. or the android emulator. there is other steps but thats what google is for. i am working on my own rom right now. cant wait till its done. i am wondering how fast a bone stock rom would run.
I would be ur number one fan for a bone stock Android with hero support. I'd even go as far as to say it would be the base most custom roms are based off of.
I'm not a programmer but if u go through with this is there any way to twist cryogen's work into it? He gets great reviews and the update utility is pretty pimp

Yep, they banned me over something dumb, and i didnt feel like fighting them, plus since i have a Hero now they are useless.
can someone tell me how to make roms and stuff like that for the hero maybe a guide or video on it? thanks

Yep! I made a deal with my wife that I wouldn't spend all my time hacking a phone with Android on it (I know, I'm going to hell for that lie).

Good to know! I'll check it out. I've got quite a bit of catching up to do. Looking forward to your ROM as well.

LOL! I sort-of banned myself. The Hero forum there is pretty lame. I still have friends there and at EDTP but I don't spend much time there anymore.
Alright!
Anyone have a package for them?
Really need them, my phone looks naked without em

Judging from the comment I highlighted in bold by you; I'll presume you're running a Vanilla ROM. Meaning, you have none of the HTC stuff; no Roise, no widgets, etc.
Actually, what ROM are you running?
Theres always beautiful widgets but I don't think they look all that great.

If you're using SushiROM, like I suggested in an earlier thread you started, you've got a ROM that has stripped sense out. The HTC Widgets rely on sense.
Personally, I hate Sense. It's slow and clunky and just not that amazing. But that's my opinion.
As someone stated above, Beautiful widgets is great. I use it. I think it's, like, $2 on the market. The PureWidgets series is great, too. They're another paid widget, but I use the weather and grid calendar widgets. They work great!
I hope this helps
EDIT:
I did some searching, and I came up with this:
http://slideme.org/application/wf-clock-widget
It looks a lot like the HTC Clock widget, so it might work. It's free, too. I've never tried it, so for all I know, it could be buggy as hell or not even work at all... but, hey... it's a start
The only reason I am sticking with sense is for the People, Music and Mail widgets, does anyone know if there are similar non-sense widgets. The only mail widgets I found on the market had bad ratings, so I didnt try them.

People works fine without sense. I use it.
The AOSP music app is pretty top-notch. I've never tried it, but there are a lot of people who like Mixzer (I think that's what it's called)
And I use Gmail, and the amazing Gmail app, so I can't really help you on the mail app. Sorry.
There is no people widget outside of Sense. I have found some alternatives for the others, going to give them a try for a while. Will post what I find works/looks best. Using Launcher 2...
My HTC Widgets Disappeared
I just installed freshtoast v2.0 (the one released to donaters on 5/9/10), and now all my HTC widgets have disappeared. No clock, no calendar, etc. Is there a way to get them back? I really don't want to wipe. I would much prefer an .apk or some other means of pushing them to the phone. Any suggestions?
Came out in the market today, but doesn't install on my 2.2 CM 6.1.3...
Says it supports 2.1 and up, and from the screenshots looks like the phone is an X10..
Looks like it could be pretty useful
Edit: Mods, I didn't realize there was an applications section. Could you please move this there? Sorry for the inconvenience
Edit2: Market link: https://market.android.com/details?i...icsson.zwooshi
App link: http://www.nidri.eu/se_apk/com.sonyericsson.zwooshi.apk (thanks to totalundone)
I took a look in the market and Google search but couldn't find anything called life contacts lol
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I found it on the market website. Said it wasn't available for my carrier.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.sonyericsson.zwooshi
I think we'll need to wait till someone shares the apk.
It's neat, pretty bare, no options though. I like its simplicity.
However, it didn't pull all my contact photos (facebook ones, but I'm using timeline for facebook contact photos)
It looks really nice though, I'm definitely keeping it.
Here
It's an SE developed App by the looks of it, but having upgraded to CM6.1.3 [V5], Android Market doesn't recognise my X10 - it just has the make and model fields blank. I guess SE may have restricted the App to SE phones only?
Just a hunch...

Thanks for the link. very nice widget. although it doesn't seem to get permissions form facebook. will try again later.
Click on widget headline "life.contacs" for options and facebook connection.
Put please the latest version 1.2.0.
In Russia it is not.
I was able to download it via the market.
Stock 2.1 on Rogers (canada)

Very nice application.. nice UI.. thanks!
Yup they opened the beta for more carriers now
Interesting will have a look
Does anyone know is it possible to pick certain aspects from themes? For example i would like the notification tray from the midnight black team but i don't want the messaging app to be themed too nor the contacts app!! Iam assuming its not possible and you gotta just apply the whole of the theme?
Anyone?
This would be great. I love my theme but I hate the keyboard. I hope someone knows an answer or this gets implemented in an update.

Yeah on my HTC 10 i could do this! I could view various themes and pick and choose what i wanted from each theme (clock, icons, wallpapers etc) Sadly i didn't really appreciate it until now ha You could also create your own theme from scratch using a template they provide online! It appears Samsung don't do this and you must apply the whole theme
hey, i just want to play with this tool, i got the 3.0 version, but its dosnt support 7.0
can someone give me a link to download this?
would appreciate it....

You need to be verified that that works
For having the theme editor from that link, meaning officially, you have to prove that you're a good designer and some of your works, in order to let Samsung "graphic team" to decide if you're worthy to became a "themer" and to download their tool.
I've tried several times last year, when I had the S7, and even if I've made some best and most downloaded HTC themes, even if I'm a graphic designer, even if I've proven my skills...they've always rejected my request...
No matter if in the Samsung Store most of the themes are ABSOLUTELY S*IT (sorry to say that, but hey...just take a look at the 80% of the themes out there...I mean...just take a look and tell by yourself) and finding one or two themes worthy of download is like finding an oasis into a desert...
Sad about that...just hope that SUBSTRATUM will soon cover the entire Samsung system theming module...THIS will be the real deal...

agreed..hw the hell they approve all the theme in the market...
all the designs on the store are from Samsung. they make it look like there are other designers but its only so it doesnt look like a monopoly. or they source from a third party company.
Yeah there's a lot of crap in there. I like a lot of Hiten Soni stuff. Nebu UI is my go to with Swift Black taking care of a lot of user apps.

hmm...... so that are the themes you like hmm? .... nvmd, i need to kick someone out of one of my tg chats... ;D
DD S8.... that's all you need to know
Did anyone ever find a download for this? Samsung's application process is screwed to say the least. Some of their allowed themes are complete trash, but they block people from being able to create better ones.
I can't get it
New version 5.0.50
any source
for 5.0.50
share it please the old one can't support 7.0
I agree most I see in there are crap that you even have to pay for. I tried also. Have a cool Ninja theme with cool icons and everything and still can't get approved.
I do think though they look at image optimization which is still not the best even with those that have been approved.
Better to just find a download somehow. I doubt though you will find anyone willing to blow their own access to make it available to all.

In theory it should work.
Created .apk just wallpaper, but the phone do not see new wallpaper when i install .apk . Friends, someone can help? Where am I wrong?
Create a theme with the old program than change the api in the xml with apk editor to 26 maximum 19 minimum and install it on your phone then move the xml file from trialjson to userjson
