Hey,
I have been messing around with custom ROMS lately and realized that Virtuous v1.01, or whatever the "stickied" one is called had this cool "Htc Calibrate" app that was preinstalled into the ROM.
I have had a problem with my screen for a while, and when I used this during the course of having the Virtuous ROM on my phone; it fixed my screen!
However, I just didnt like that ROM all that much, and reverted back to a generic world ROM so that I could use locations (after all, I do have a Bell phone) and also overclocked it earlier today so thats good...
BUT I want that screen calibration app! It looked kind of like the Market app icon, where can I get it/how can I get it on this generic ROM that I am running?
Help Plz! Peace
I want to know how to calibrate my screen too if you're talking about touch calibration. Or are you talking about color calibration? Anyone know how I can recalibrate my touch placement. Seems a little off in my phone. I'm always hitting the wrong key.
Would like that to

Only works with sense based roms, It won't work on a stock rom.

I have backup 2 different rom. The stock G2 and HTC desire z modoco kitchen.
I have uploaded a pic from the stock G2 and it looks standard when viewing online but when i switch rom and upload using the desire z rom it comes out wide screen!
could it be the app that i was using? the desire z has it's own facebook app for some reason and the stock is well...using stock facebook upload.
just asking around to see if i am going crazy or someone else also notice this.
My MyTough Slide used to do that when I switched roms. With stock it came out fine but with any 2.2 rom I got wide. I'm not sure why, but i'd wager my next paycheck that it's a difference in software.
I never really saw it as a problem, as the pics still looked good, but yes I've noticed this before too.

I'm sure it's the camera software itself. Maybe a different version or a setting that's changed. My suggestion would be to experiment around with the stock camera settings to see if you can set it for wide shots. Otherwise, you can stick with a rom or upload them to your computer and edit them before posting them to FB.
ya...already fumble around with the camera settings on the stock firmware. the sense seems to be more robust in feature than stock. wish u can take the camera apk from sense and port it over to stock...
anyone here get acer launcher to install on the G2 on CM7?
if so, what apk did you use? does it FC on you all the time?
Its called Liquid Villian find it in the Dev section.

I don't have experience with it, but this was the only thread I was able to find on XDA through search (that had any sort of recent replies). Did a search in the thread so I wouldn't have to read through the 10 pages and it doesn't seem like there was anyone reporting in from the G2/Desire Z camp to give success or failure stories, so you'll have to test it out for yourself.
The only other alternative I can think of right now is mentioned by joe3681 above me in the Liquid Villain thread. I flashed the rom when it was first released and gave it a couple of minutes, but it was a drastic change and I missed the features/familiarity of CM7, so I went back. It definitely isn't CM7 if that's what you're looking to keep, but if the launcher is something that's really that important to you, then this may be your only option. The dev doesn't seem to be actively providing updates to it as it seems stable/nothing to update, but a gingerbread port does seem to be in the works/planned.
It should also be noted that there is now an option in CM7 to have the status/notification bar at the bottom (under tablet options in CM settings). This might give you a slight compromise.
Hope I helped a little bit.

yea it does say not installed if you try to use the apk to install it. im guessing there is a compatibility issue
Launchers aren't typically listed in the app drawer. Once it's installed, push the home softkey and it will ask you what you want to use to complete the action. Set it to use the launcher of your choice as default. The same goes for ADW, LauncherPro, Go Launcher, and more I'm sure. Go Launcher does have an icon I believe though.
Or are you saying that the apk fails to install altogether?
Yes I am saying it does not install at all

Yes landscape mode is supported when you slide out the keyboard.

Badass!!! Can't wait to try this! Definitely one of the best LOOKING roms i ever seen!
Working pretty well....
Launcher is a little choppy...but seriously! Cant complain! Love the UI animations though!
Definitely looks spectacular, I'll probably try it out and get back. Hope you get the WiFi and such worked out, will post back after test running
ok - not to be a **** or anything but this begs the question:
Why do you WANT blur on your phone? Everyone i know with a blurred motorola phone struggles to make it blurless and wants to remove that crap as much as possible - it is a serious detriment to performance and battery life.

A bit of variety, perhaps?
yea im aware of the many issues, i still have alot of work left with this rom, about landscape mode it should be working just fine even with the keyboard out, also the browser im not sure as i havent fixed wifi so i cant use the internet on the rom. And yes i figured gps was not working again iv got no internet so i have no way of fixing that, i need wifi for that XD. anyways im glad you guys like it.

Because this version of blur is different from the others and better, and well because we on the g2 forums deserve variety, other than the 3 classic roms, sense,cm7 or miui. And no i dont think this rom will drain that much battery or affect performance, our gpu's beats the crap out of the omap that the droids have.
Also found that when calling someone it will restart the phone and it will keep you on the call till the os finishes reloading.

i'm guessing this is based on the Droid X GB leak - the blur is different than the blur on 2.2? My girlfriend was running stock 2.2 on the DX and getitng like 12 hrs of battery life. Then running Liberty 2.1 (blurless 2.2 based) she was getting 24 hours +. I flashed her over to the Liberty GB alphas (has a lot of blur in it) and have yet to see how the batt life is.
What i do know is that if you look @ running services (on the DX Liberty GB) and use an app like autostarts to see the on startup apps - blur has a whole ton of blur stuff that runs in the background from startup on - unrelated to ui changes and widgets.
What i fail to understand is not manufacturer ui (which differentiates) but why it has to be baked in so deep into the OS and kernel that it makes it impossible to remove if - god forbid - you want a more stock experience.
I have a lot of respect for any dev who brings more variety and software choice for our phones and i dont mean to undermine his work. I guess i just get pissed that companies like motorola make it so hard to go stock (particularly mess with that damned bootloader) that they would rather u ruin your device (i soft bricked my gf's droid x once and the only way to get back to stock is a complete SBF flash - a rare turn of events that i've never had the displeasure of running into on an HTC phone).
On a related note to this ROM, i noticed on Liberty GB (but not on Liberty 2.x) you can remove stuff from the notification area because there is a minus button (ie you dont have to clear all notifications or click on the notification itself to clear it - there is a button that enables its removal). Is this part of blur? I'd love to see this ported to AOSP.
like i said in the title, when i change the screen in the sense the image not panning in real time, only change quick when the screen i choose is changed 100%, is normal or i can change this?
In the One V, it changes in real time, when i swap with the finger to the left or right the image go with the finger in the same speed i want to change the screen.
mine goes in real time. using viper1.0.1
mine still stock rom... i just ask if that issue is normal in One X, because a cheaper like One V work right...

YES! This is a known bug and normal. It is know as Live Wallpaper bug, it does happen in SENSE Roms, specially using SENSE launcher.
I never use live wallpaper anyway, so I don't care, but it is anoying for those who use it.
For those who says, no it's not normal, using a Custom ROM, it doesn't help the OP.

Hi
I have this rom on my htc desire and it worked great for long time..
Lately i have a problem... WHen i close an app and go to the home screen, not always, but often, the cell kind of..restart the gui...i get the white screen with the htc logo, and it reload the system.
Any idea about what it could be? I tried to reset it, reflash the rom, wipe everything but the sd.
Thank you in advance to anyone would try to give me ideas or any kind of help
It's kind of a "Refresh". It doesn't do any harm. It's actually good.
That usually happens when the launcher process is put to sleep, allocating more memory to the foreground process.
Hi
Maybe it's just a refresh and it could be even good, but it's kind of bothering..and i don't think it's anything normal..
I was thinking it was 'cause the system gives all the resources to the process i use, and then, when i got back to the home screen, it has to restart it..but...
Anyway, thanks for the asnwer
It is the way it simply is and there is no cure. Maybe you could try making it bulletproof using V6 Supercharger script?
Your interpretation is much closer to the truth, as it is nothing good and is certainly annoying as hell. It would never happen on a phone with decent hardware specs.

So, basically, the cell sucks? I wasn't thinking the desire was that bad...
I can try with that script, but.. i don't wanna mess up things more just to end up with same issue...
It's...stupid...i mean...sometimes it happens in the morning when the alarm rings and when i turn it off..it goes to home screen...and i get the white screen.. What could be wrong after a night in deep sleep?
And..anytime i install or update an app...same thing...
I was thinking to change it anyway...but i can't waste much money..i was thinking about the desire x..now i don't wanna end up with another problem...

Try using a Gingerbread AOSP rom, like MildWild. They don't have that reset thing.
The main reasons i chose the supernova rom was 'cause it was based on the orginal and with the htc sense..
Dunno..i just am sad and disappointed..
Maybe i will try to flash some other rom..
Thanks
