Modifying the AT&T Tilt, Please help!

Sorry if this is the wrong board, but I think my problem can be considered the closest to this one. Anyways, I picked up the tilt yesterday, and I have been trying to research on how to put addons onto it.
I have searched some tutorials, and browsed through quite a few boards. I apologize if I seemed to have missed it.
Can anyone tell me the easiest way to modify my Tilt with these addons:
All I want would be Touchflo, HTC Cube, HTC today screens (plug in), and slide2unlock. I wouldn't mind toying around with some too, but those would be the main ones I am looking to add. Can someone help me out, I've been holding out on posting a thread to make sure I tried everything I could all that's left is simply asking for help.
Thanks in advance
check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=344533 it has all HTC Apps extracted and also check this section for more specific apps for your phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=376
Doh!
Thanks alot!

Where is the best place to learn Linux Kernel Development, or more specifically, Android Kernel Development (if there's any major differences in the two).
I have a slight Computer Science background from being self-taught in basic C programs, an understanding for Object Oriented Programming, and also learning Java throughout school.
I've heard that http://kernelnewbies.org/ is good as well as the standard www.kernel.com website to grab the latest kernel and start tinkering.

The sites you listed are pretty good, also try and learn a little C, or some google searching does wonders

Well im not sure of your question, but you can set profiles in SetCPU so that when your screen goes off it can slow the clock down
[Q] Is the G2 capable of Screen Sharing/DLNA
I love my G2, but one feature that I wish the it incorporated is the DLNA screen sharing feature that the MyTouch 4g is touting. Does anyone know if this is something that's possible on the G2?
wrong forum!
i have to ask only because im clueless, wtf is DLNA screen sharing?
thanx, veritas

My understanding of it is this, it's the ability to stream content directly from your phone to a DLNA compliant device, kind of like a networked media storage device would do. It can be a substitute for TV out in some cases. I have some movies (home movies, photos, etc) that I just recorded on my G2 and want to watch them on my TV. Well, my PS3 is DLNA compliant and I would stream these movies through my PS3. If anyone else has anything to add or wants to correct anything that I may have misstated please do.
How can I enable the long-hold action for the Menu button that pops up the on-screen keyboard?
While I am foaming at the mouth to know how to make my g2 dlna, i have a far moar simple question.
Just need some help starting an app.. such as setcpu from visionary.sh.
I know i can set it from app to start on boot, but have run into it not having su permission at that point. yes I am a script or cmd line no0b but any help would be appreciated.

I feel that's a bit more specific question to be asked in the visionARY app thread located: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=808514

In regards to my posting, is there a decent Guide or Bible that has the various complexities of the Android Kernel?
What is QMI, What is Fastboot, all these types of important Acronyms and Terms that are not known to the general joe schmoe.
Thanks

Your answer to my question was sooo unhelpful. Read that thread my question is posted there, and it has gone unanswered. I have also read most of the threads in general, app, and have done a search with no real clear answer.
So now you can either help me or give me some moar useless links.

Take a look at this thread. Should help you get through it easily.
to tell you the truth i was afraid to root my cliq because i didnt want to brick the phone, so no i havent temp rooted yet. i have the new ota. with the temp root if i shut my my off or it dies will it revert back to stoc because of the backup installed
edit. i downloaded visionary about 5 minutes ago so i did the 1 click root.
First off, its not a backup. Secondly, if you reboot you'll clear the cache and will have to re-root. Its temp, so you won't brick your phone.

LG Optimus Dual's gestures

Hi everybody!
Is there an application that lets you use lg optimus dual's gestures? I refer to the possiblity to move the cursor, when you are writing, left or right simply by hitting your device on the left or the right side.
Thank you in advance and sorry my english

Bump!
This sounds pretty interesting...
Yes this is possible, actually with a little bit of porting you could use the same app. The only real problem is that the hardware (accelerometer) is different. But it shouldn't be to big of a problem. How usefull this app would be is a second issue. You are aware that it is merely a gimmick and not even very functional on the optimus right?
Hope this informed you enough. If you want someone to develop it for you, just send out a request and donate kindly
Thank you for the explanation, my real problem is how to move between text easily, i red about this possibility but it's not an useful solution... Thank you tho for helping
Btw do you know how to move practically between text?

No problem, Could you elaborate on that? I don't understand what you mean exactly. You press where you want to have the cursor on text? On website its a longpress and then you can drag (and copy search etc) Is this what you mean?
I have some problems while typing a text message, for example, my finger isn't too much precise to choose the right place;
another important problem that i have is when i'm searching on Google: if what i'm searching is longer than the bar, and I'd like to edit the last word, i can't move the cursor too right beside i should tap the "x", that deletes all...
Sorry my English i tried to explain as best as i can, i hope that it's understandable...
10q again for help

Actually I know what you mean, google thing you can solve by making a text selection and draging it to the beginning. For the text problem there isnt really a solution. I got used to it pretty fast and im accurate now. Also the gingerbread keyboard is a bit better when it comes to text selection, if your not using it yet it might be worth giving a try
you can find a flashable package of the keyboard here.
Hope this will help you!
Edit: Text selection in google mobile is indeed not possible. A solution for this could be to use classic google which has a larger text box. (I am using this since the beginning, its actually faster and less buggy, downside is that you have to zoom in and out a bit more)
I already have a gingerbread keyboard, thank you...

Ok good, best keyboard imo. OT: you still want the dual gestures? Could ask some dev's to take a look at it
no i don't think i will, it's not so important, i don't want to bother a dev for so little...
Hahaha, lonely in this thread. We could have almost handled it with pm's

[Q] Help with mod?

I've been searching for months now and have had no luck. Does anyone know if a mod exists that will remove the page jumps from my homescreen ? It would allow me to scroll from one end of my screens to the other end with one flick. In ios it was called smoothboard. Any help guys? Ever even heard of it on an android ?
Launcher Pro does that.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
Thanks for the reply, but I'm not talking about virtual looping at the ends. I'm talking about flicking it on my farthest left screen all the way through my screens to the farthest on the right. It would also allow you to stop the homescreen with two rows from each page available. Any idea what I mean or anyone else have any help?
Nothing guys? I'm wondering if this is even possible ?
I've given up and moved on.
If any dev were to take this challenge on I would handsomely reward them.
I would probably pay around $50 to have this functionality.
Sorry mods, I just needed a few more posts so that I can post a reply on a newly released roms thread. No questions or noob problems, just wanna be able to post and tell people how crazy it is.
But the deal is really still on the table though!

Possible? broke lcd, unlock PIN from PC

Hey guys! My Galaxy s3 i747 from At&t has the lcd broken, I want to extract my information but since I do not have an LCD, I cannot input my pin so that the computer recognizes the device. Is there ANYTHING i can do? bypass the lockscreen from the PC to access the folders on android and recover my docs, or input the PIN from some sort of command, or screencast to succesfuly bypass this only barrier to get my pictures that are the most important part.

I will try that which helps, but the problem is that I had keepsafe app which hides pictures and documents which are really hidden folders. Which a normal backup I think would not back up, there are documents therewhich are of extreme value. That is why I am looking for a way to access the phone.
I tried screencasting but since it is not in debug mode, i guess it doesnt appear in my computer for the cast to access it.thanks
I saw a post someone saying that people don't use the search enough but a way to back up data.. The way it works from reading it was if you are rooted. I have a question. does any part of your screen work or is it just a big blob of color**. also I stopped rooting and modding my phone after getting a good one due to bugs in custom roms. Having stock allows me to call Samsung and ***** and rage and have support. Don't get me wrong the modding community is great and I respect that. But my phone is pretty much my work it has to work how it was sold to me.
I hope there is a way to allow you to fix it yourself with out sending it to Samsung. Or having to pay top dollar for your data.
also search on the internet has become to the point of hopeless, most the time you have to word it right or know the tech term to get the answer easy. I feel your pain and respect the fact you had the guts to ask for help.
