Droid ROM, etc. discussions~continued~2

@ Listen

I'm using LauncherPro now. Which has solved my whole widget/shortcut/menu item problem I was having. I also find it a little bit more faster.

I really like the touchwiz menu that ADW has, but I found it to be really laggy on mine.

Thx Listenman. And to the rest, sorry I don't come around here much, but I still do . . .

Anyways, I really like ADW and I used to use Home++ beta both of which were (are) on the fringe (and therefore considered 'buggy', 'laggy' and taboo), but for some reason once I got used to Home++ beta's setting to hide the notification bar and the fact that you can long press an app in the app drawer to uninstall it, well there it is there, I guess. Damn the topedoes on my choice of home replacement.

As far as my theme, I still use my own version of the "DarkSE/24k" theme that has by now pretty much gone by the wayside (so therefore sometimes it takes me more work to implement it), and then I keep using the old fonts from the first version of it when we were still on 2.0.1. I like the font, because it looks elegant to me; the theme because it matches the phone, black and gold.

Well, that's all for now from me. . . .

Glad to see you stop by there Teddy. You obviously have way more patience then I do that is for sure. I honestly can't believe how many stupid people I see on these forums when it comes to this Android stuff. It just seems to me either they can't read, are to lazy to read and want to be spoon fed. Or they just plain don't get/understand what they are reading.

You are correct tho on the Motocache1 thing. He is the one who did HottProxy, as well as the ESE81.sbf file for the Droid. He was even kinda enough to make us an SBF of the custom recovery P3 made for our unsecured D2's X's. And dam does it work like a charm if I must say so myself. It is so just simple full SBF the device, quick SBF of the recovery image and bam off to putting a custom ROM on it that has root,busybox...etc. Up in no time. Now on that note I personally know Motocache1 so if there is anything you'd like to know in specific or what have you. Feel free to drop me a line and I'll touch base with him. Personally I have not kept up on much if any of the Droid stuff. After having this X this long now I never see myself going back to the Droid dam thing is just to F'ing small, and being I have no use for the piss poor keyboard I don't see it happening I guess. But then again I'm really not a huge fan of the keyboard anyway and never have been the virtual works just as well if not better IMO. I still have one as a back device tho just in case.

As a side not tho for any D2 or X owners. Here is the fastest and simplest way to root it. More or less a one click pony in ADB instead of the process Birdman figured out and Sebastian finished up. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8136153&postcount=2

To change the Browser icon on ADW go into settings of ADW and make sure you have RAB & LAB checked ( ie enabled) so you edit them. Then just take any icon you have on your screen and drag it right over the browser icon and release and it should change. I have my 2 buttons set to Txt msgs & the other is Gtalk.

that's the 1st i've seen of that one sailor....not bad looking but not something i wanna try i don't think...

thanks pyde....i thot i had already tried that, but i musta hit the trash can instead...

Listen should be pleased about this. Car Home is now part of the app store. There is an update for it that allows you to customize it. There are now four panels and you can put whatever you want on it.
