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!
I got my Evo for RS as soon as it opened. Once it was activated, I started downloading my favorite apps that I had on my Moment w/ 2.1. I have done every type of search I can think of in the Market, but I still can't find my two favorite apps: Launcher Pro and Quick Settings.
I even went on AndroLib.com and found both apps. I then scanned the QR codes and it could not be located in the Market. I also clicked on the market link, using the browser on my Evo, from the review of Launcher Pro on Android Central and couldn't find it.
Any one else having this problem? As a last resort I can make a backup of both apps from my Moment and then install it from the sd card to my Evo, but I would rather dl from the market.
Thanks for your help...
Im having the same problem
handcent has gone AWOL. What's the dilly o?
handcent is there on my evo, check out appbrain.com to find apps as well.
Im in the same boat. Can not find several apps like adw launcher and helix launcher 2.
It seems to be a market wide issue today. Many people are reporting it for various apps.

Installed Appbrain on my Evo, went to their website, found LauncherPro and Quick Settings. When I tried to install them from Appbrain on my Evo, I get the same thing. These apps cannot be found...
I hope this gets sorted soon. I prefer LauncherPro over Sense and I used Quick Settings very often.
Other than this, I love the Evo...
I can't find ShopSavvy......

probably has to do with the ROM you're using, I had a similar problem with some ROMS, and after I switched to a different one all apps showed up.
Its a problem with google.
a handful of apps all of a sudden went missing today, apps o downloaded yesterday and reccommended to people, just up and gone. mostly good apps too. I guess the Evo put a strain on more than just Sprint's network
the Handcent devs have posted most recent APK's on their forums, due to this. If i was a dev I'd be pissed right now

I'm using the new Evo and my Hero with the 2.1 update. It's a rooted hero running stock 2.1 by damage control.
sorry for bumping old thread.
I guess this issue is still around. I even can't find Google Maps on android market. I thought it was ROM issue but tried 2 ROMs (both froyo) on HTC Wildfire, still no luck.
Anyone with workaround for this problem?
Thanks

Polite bump
I am looking for real themes guys, those that we flash in recovery.
Isnt anyone following the nexus forums over there, they have lot of themes.. really great ones ..
Anyways i will now flash one of those and be a pioneer, if that works out then perfect! Everyone else should also know that by then, so ppl can skin their lovley Desires
Go for it! As soon as you try one and let us know if it works, I'll try another. Between us we can get our desires wrecked, or everyone else's skinned and themed!

ADW launcher works great is very fast and is very close to how froyo looks like.

I'm using Launcher Pro Beta, which is also good, although, I have heard that ADW Launcher provides better battery life span in comparison.
I used adw, but I went back to launcher pro because I love how it allows you to have 5 rows on your home screen aswell as the 4 on the dock.
used both
adw and launcherpro
switched fully to adw now - just seems to run better and great that they have now enabled pinch to zoom too.
either one u go with they are both great
Does anybody know how to uninstall a theme.zip ?
A bit of a tut here to let us know how you guys are getting these themes to work would be cool?
I'm posting here because I'm not aloud to post in the developement section. I use the cybergr-MODINS.NGN v4 Ultimate rom and I'm very happy with it. This morning I tried the [ROM][09JAN]CyberGR-MOD|NS.NGN v.2 Hybrid+GLaDOS 2.7|CM9+AOKP|F*A*S*T..!! but I had some problems with launcher pro and few incompadibility problems of programs I use. I also noticed the lack of the greek keyboard.
At the end I'm back to the old one which is perfect.
ok?
Is there a point to this post or just for general knowledge? I don't understand what point you are trying to make or what your question is.

I don't want to make any point. I just want to share my experience. Thats all.
I doubt launcher pro is working properly in ICS. As far as I am aware of, it hasn't been updated in ages.

I've tried the 3rd version, but finally I decided to stay to the old one. I thing that ICS is not mature yet, still I'll try every new version until I'm satisfied.
Hi could anyone who thinks it would be useful ask NRGZ28 to add the Galaxy Tab masquerade to his ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1528024). I think it would be a good addition that would make it even better, and would not be too time consuming to get it going.
I would ask him myself but the posting rules do not allow it, since I'm new.
And now a totally different question: is it normal that Apex has no dock in the Energy Rom? Or am I missing something?
no dock in apex launcher is a known issue for all ics tablet..

There isn't supposed to be a dock..... it's a tablet!

I thought it was a bug. I'll stick with Go Launcher HD then. Thanks guys.
1. to masquerade the KF as a galaxy tab in NRG rom is a verry good idea.
2.If you use go launcher then you better run cm7 it is more stable and hwa works.
Tablets don´t need a dock bar

On a March 14th post he did mention that the tablet would identify itself as a galaxy tab for more market app compatibility, however I am using the 3/19 release and it still identifies as Kindle Fire, maybe something that did not go through?
Yeah, same boat here.
