[Q] I like the UI of myTouch 3G (HTC Magic) fy2.2 - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can I get it on my myTouch 3G Slide froyo 2.2? thanks a lot!

If you're rooted, there is a Froyo/Sense ROM, "GratiousSlide" I think...

Its heavily flawed. Hopefully will be stable soon

I believe he is talking about a straight port from the recent myTouch 3g froyo (2.21) over the air update, which I would also like to see. Preferably cause I like the stock launcher, and would like to have both the stock and adw available if I wanted. If there were an easy way to port it, maybe someone could point me in the right direction.

Stock Froyo uses something called Launcher2(L2) it isn't on anything made by Cyan or his team, I'll attach the app but you must push it to /system/app while on Vanilla Froyo rom. It works with LWP's and I think it's must faster than ADW.
View attachment Launcher2.apk

Ok so would it work on cm6 then, seeing as it is a vanilla froyo rom?

It's the vanilla one which is aon all vanilla 2.2 phones, but it has 5 screens not 7.It works on nightlies+CM6
You need to push it to /system/app while in clockwork, but mount system partition.

i know its a noob question, but i can't for the life remember how to mount system in adb to push the apk. can you post the commands or a topic to explain?
edit: nevermind, did some digging and found a solution. if i want adw as well i can just install from market right?

Cm6+nightlies use ADW by default, Cyan doesnt use L2 at all.

Where is the vanilla 2.2 Froyo ROM?

It seems like all of the available ROMs have either Sense, or ADW launcher. Why no pure vanilla Froyo 2.2, with the stock launcher?...or am I just missing it? I'm talking Nexus One pure, with no additions or changes whatsoever, besides root.

Stock and Vanilla in this case don't mean the same thing -- stock roms are Sense based, and Vanilla refers to android without any sense -- as you would have on the nexus one, or compiling from Android Open Source Project code.

I'm working on porting the stock FRF91 from the N1 as we speak. I have never done this before and am therefore using only the basic kitchen. If it works and I can verify little or no bugs I will post it in android development. I can't make any promises though.

hey tc, i tried to port frf92 as well, but my question is, why are folders missing after the port.
hope your port goes well. i made a patched cm6 to hold myself over until there was a vanilla port, but as the time goes by, i just feel more and more like the real vanilla. good luck.

i hear that it is hard to port from the basic kitchen. whoever o talk to says that it wont boot.
check the /system folder. im sure some subfolders are missing. i tried to port EVOlution from the evo not too long ago, but when i realized folders werent there, i just decided to forget it.
quick question- what rom did you use as the one "from your phone" as the kitchen would put it???

Skyraider 1.0, all it was looking for was the kernel I think. Might compile the kernel myself and use the zimage I generate. When I have time that is. I would love the stock nexus froyo.

After trying both CM6 and SkyRaider Vanilla, I'm still looking for a true vanilla rom!!
CM 6.0.1 is vanilla, but it's still HEAVILY modified. Plus, it freezes with a blank screen, or Exchange stops updating, or force closes pop up every once in a while, etc.
SkyRaider has a "vanilla" version, but again it's heavily modified.
I'm not asking for just a vanilla UI, I'd like a vanilla UI AND OS. Give me a vanilla OS that hasn't been screwed with...please? A clean, stock, VANILLA UI and OS that's as near to Google's code as possible (like the Nexus One for example), that hasn't been tinkered with, and that just works on the Incredible.
Is this possible????
Check out the Ruby rom in the development section.

CM6 Froyo google apps port to Mytouch slide stock rooted rom?

I was just wondering if it was possible to port the froyo google apps such as gmail and gtalk to the stock rooted slide rom... I really like the froyo gtalk and gmail and would like them to run on the slide rooted rom if possible. I remember the G1 having eclair apps on the donut rom from old cm and super d roms so is this possible?

What do you mean it's not stock? It's wholly stock, except for the part in Settings > CyanogenMod Settings, which a lot of people hold near and dear to their hearts. Otherwise, it's the fastest and most stable Gingerbread build -- nay, ROM -- that I've ever used on my Droid Incredible, even in it's Nightly Build state.
CM7 is 'stock'. I'd say the only thing making it not stock is ADW which can be removed with some basic stuff.

I dont get why cm7 would use adw and not just the stock launcher. That bugs me. But ive always hated adw.

I agree. I just download the stock Gingerbread launcher from the market and delete ADW. Works great with CM7.
Or learn how to compile source.

Why does everyone automatically say well learn to do it yourself? I asked a simple question about the launcher. I figured maybe I'd be told its customizable or something.

I've been running the C7 nightlies for a while and love them - What's different in the "stock launcher" rather then ADW? I'm not trolling just curious.
Yea I run OMFGB.
You could always do what i do and just download the roms you want pieces of and pull the pieces and put them into yours. Like download cm7 and omgb and put the omgb launcher into cm7

I ran an early build of OMBG and liked it but it was not stable enough to use as a daily driver at that point - I just don't remember what the differences were between it's launcher and ADW.
I installed omfgb today and then installed adw as i prefer 5 icons in my bar. I will install cm7 #28 asap tonite as omfgb just doesnt "feel" as stable.

[Q]/[REQ] Froyo theme for KPN?

I really dislike the look of TW4 theme, and was wondering if there is a theme for KPN made from the old Froyo?
If there isn't would anyone be kind enough to make it? I'm good with Android and all, but I can't do theming, P.S. It needs to be for Samsung Stock Recovery and I'm not rooted *yet* :L
Thanks so much in advance!,

You should try rooting your phone, for us SGA users it's just as easy as clicking an button (literally). Much more troublesome for some HTC users.

Huh? GO launcher laggy? Shouldnt be a problem on ace. But if you ever feel like rooting, get GingerReal 1.1.0 KPN and install V6 (aggressive mode). The best combination i've ever used, no lagg at all using GO launcher.
I had V6 on my old phone and OC'd, But I removed it, never needed it, I only really use it for music, blogging, twitter+facebook and texting, and aloooooooot of internets
Go launcher never lags. In fact Regina 3D is laggy as hell. Since you stated you're "good with android and all" why do you request someone to make a stock recovery zip for you? Rather weird...

GO launcher actually does lag alot. And regina works flawless on my phone. I am good with Android actually, just not good with theming actually, specifically UOT kitchen. I can theme CM7 from scratch and am currently in the process of making a theme for SwiftDroid (GT540 CM7) so there. And the reason for stock recovery and unrooted is because my phone works perfectly and im not missing any rooted functions from my old phone. So yeah. If you wanna slabber, think again mate. I hate people who just assume. And GO launcher is crap aswell, TW launcher is far better.

That's weird then. What rom are you using? Touchwiz is laggy in the app drawer. Maybe it's your experience with the older versions of golauncher? Because what I'm using now has zero lag.
Anyway why not try replacing image pngs from froyo to your own framework.apk? You won't find the icons in uot. And sorry for the flare.

So branded phones have custom roms, that's new to me. Are you able to debrand safely?
I dont know, but theres honestly no point because I came from the GT540 which was fully unlocked bootloader wise and had fastboot so Ive no clue about Odin and the CSC's and If I was to debrand I'd loose the custom MTU and 2G would be completely useless and where I live im stuck on 2G so its classed as national roaming and is way slower without mtu changed :/

Kinda ironic Three doesn't have 3G... did you see redmaner's thread in development section on multi-csc? Maybe that'll help... I came from the x10 mini pro which doesn't have so many complications as well. But luckily for me my country's carriers don't brand/lock phones.

Removing sense

Is it possible to completely remove sense UI for a sense Rom to become aosp? I recently used a desensify script on a Rom but sense is still there. I'm guessing rosie is no longer there, I'm using another launcher now. The widgets and lockscreen are gone too. The contacts, messages, camera, and other behind things are still there.

You can remove sense. If you do this, you'll have a 'senseless' ROM. You have to put a launcher on it and you'll need to find alternative widgets, etc.
I used to do this. I liked that I could have whatever launcher I wanted but still have the sense camera and dialer.
Also, the ROM flies even faster once you get little miss Rosie out of the picture...
BTW, the only aosp that I've tried with functioning Skype is miui.
But nowadays I stick to Sense ROMs mostly

Well I believe better battery life but I have yet to test it. I think less memory or RAM is used but don't quote me on that. The more knowledgeable people might answer that.
