Firstly, I apologize if I'm off on anything I say here and am definitely open to direction. I'm a bit new to the game but have taken a deep interest in the modding community and modding itself. I generally just read from the sidelines but I seem to be in a pickle at the moment.
I am currently running ARHD 5.2.3 (Thanks, Mike!) with several Sense 3.0 mods including the 3D Rosie. I absolutely love it and it doesn't interfere with the mod or anything and the performance is still amazing. Well, I've been thinking about doing an actual case mod with a wrist mount and I remember seeing the HTC Flyer had the 3D Rosie in landscape mode, too. Now I'm aware of BeatMod, the Flyer ROM for DHD, but I'd really like to stick with Mike's ROM. Is there a way to get the .apk for the Flyer Rosie by itself so I can use the landscape 3D launcher or because of resizing and HTC widget issues will I have to use a ROM that is built around the Flyer port?
Im not sure but you can always try it. Download the Beatmod zip, extract it and search for rosie.apk. Do a nandroid, move it to your phone SD card and then replace the rosie.apk thats already there via Root Explorer.
That's true. I might give that a go tomorrow after a good night's rest.

I went ahead and loaded the .apk. It works to an extent before it force closes. Judging by the way its reacting, its having a problem with old 2.1 widget sizes. I lose the dock at the bottom completely (it might be there but below the edge of the phone screen because of size issues), Friend Stream doesnt show anymore, my news widget is off-center to the top-left, and when I go to add a widget via the personalize button everything is a mess and not as descriptive as it should be. When I fumble around and finally hit the right button for widgets and start looking through them it force closes. Any tips on the next step to get this functional?
Doesnt seem like you'll be able to use it without the Flyer ROM then. It wasnt designed for other ROMS and thus doesnt work properly.
BUT you might want to try to find out which kernel is in the Beatmod ROM, then install it to yours. It might make a difference.
I'm wondering how 3D Rosie differs from the Flyer Rosie as I am able to use it on ARHD. I'll probably shoot a message over to Seo and ask about how they modded 3D Rosie to work.

The only thing i can suggest to experiment with is the DPI. as far as I know DHD uses 240 while flyer uses 160. Try playing through LCD density changer as well.
Alright. I'll give that a go. I did read something about that while I was looking around. That could fix sizing but I'd still have to tackle function.

You could install Touch Wiz. But you'd get no Sense widgets.
How do I go about doing this?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I am also interested if anyone knows of any Sense mods or homescreen replacements that have app drawers like TouchWiz. I hate the vertical scrolling. The paged horizontal scrolling seems much more friendly and quicker.
Search for touchwiz3.apk in desire or nexus forums, it is around somewhere.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I tried out touchwiz.. I like some parts of it but hate others. Thanks though.
ADW Launcher has an option for horizontal scrolling rather than vertical scrolling of the app list. It also allows you to customise the number of homescreens - check that out from the Market. You will, however, be unable to use any of the HTC Sense widgets while you are using ADW.
I'll check it out. I've used it in Cyanogenmod.. I didn't like it then (at all). It seems 'rough'. Maybe it's better since I tried it.
Yeah, adw.launcher does about everything you asked. I used it for a day or two, but I personally prefer LauncherPro, it doesn't offer Horizontal scrolling though.
Anybody? I can't seem to find a mod to fix it.
I've often wondered this too, but have yet to find a way to do so. I'll continue to look around.

You need to take "Rosie.apk" from another 3.0 rom that has this stock look, ive done it on nils cos I like the right button to pull up personalize too.
I've seen a thread on here about scrolling wallpaper being disabled with el29. Somebody posted modified APK, yet it doesn't seem to work, other than it allowing for.different dimensions in resizing. Most custom roms have it working, how do you fix it? I'd like to have stock el29 with wallpaper hack .

To my knowledge only miui doesn't have scrolling wp and thats only with certain themes.

Why would Sprint/Samsung disable scrolling on wallpapers?? That's stupid, now many live wallpapers are ruined since you can't see the whole scene.
I would like to know a good fix as well. Even knowing which roms have it enabled would be nice.
You dont need a custom rom to fix it. Just install a different launcher. I use go launcher ex and everything works great, including scrolling wallpapers.
I'd like to keep the stock launcher.
Also when I upgraded to EL29 the microbes live wallpaper went poof and was gone. Had to google it to get the apk to get it back.
Calk 2.8.1 fixed the scrolling wallpaper issue.
+1 I've tried everything to get the scrolling wallpaper back on stock EL29 without going to a custom ROM. I even pm's Calk to see if he could do a zip for that feature, but no response yet.

I like to use tw 4.5 launcher and even though it is custom, scrolling wallpaper still doesn't seem to work. Getting a custom launcher still doesn't let you properly resize the wallpaper, unless you replace the gallery apk.
I appreciate work by all the devs, but there isn't a rom out there that I like too much. Most of them make visual changes I am not fond of, or brightness settings. I know that both calcs rom and blazer have working scrolling wallpaper and are both on el29.
Am using unnamed now, since it is still very stable and fast. Had to disable updates via terminal emulator to prevent el29 from downloading and notifying me every hour. Problem with that is it also disables profile and prl updates.

Bump, anyone? I really hate that my tw launchers nor none of the gingerbread launchers work. I'm not fond of adw, lp, nor.go.
I flashed the AIO mod and it has working scrolling wallpapers. I think samsung disabled it when they turned on continuous scrolling through homescreens. It looks a little funny w/ some wallpapers to jump from screen 1 to screen 7 backwards.
Edit: make sure you flash the "preflash" zip too or it won't work.

Don't want to be "that guy" that brings an older post back up to the top, but if I'm wanting to stay stock (I just got this phone, I've had several other Android phones in the past and I don't feel like messing around with custom ROMS anymore)... there's no way to make scrolling wallpapers work again?
I use ADW EX and if I use "Wallpaper Set and Save" from the market, I can get static wallpapers to scroll, but that doesn't help with live wallpapers.
This is irritating!

Flash the AIO mod and then flash other packages to make it stock again. I did that and now have scrollable wallpaper on my story k build. The only modification I have is crt off animation.

Not that I don't know how, because I do... but I've had a Moto Cliq, Nexus One, EVO 4G, Epic 4G, Nexus S 4G... now this E4GT... my flashing days are done, I'm just tired of the hassle.
Hi All,
can anyone advise on how (if possible) to get the Sense interface to rotate to landscape mode, this happened to mine yesterday following a weird bit of behaviour when Dolphin browser crashed, despite the weird little hiccup I was very very happy with the end result (perfect landscape sense) but as of today less than 24hours later back to standard portrait mode
any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
I think this might do the trick: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.rotationlocker&hl=en
Also, there might be other similar apps on Play, so browse around a bit. Otherwise, some custom ROMs also offer this feature.
Thanks for the quick response a704e unfortunately Sense keeps forcing a return to portrait for these types of application, looks like a trip to custom ROM land.........

I always believed that the Sense Rosie didn't allow Homescreen rotation.
It'll only get activated when in dock mode.
If you want to have a Landscape Homescreen I suggest a custom Rom or a different launcher, Apex launcher works well.
I've made a dock of that box from One X, and it looks perfectly with landscape Sense. I will make a photo how it does look. But later.

I think that only changing the code of Rosie launcher may help. ROM's land ))) I did change it and it works great, except People widget, it doesnt have enough room in landscape mode to show all contacts.

This works perfectly but annoyingly leaves a notification in the status bar when it is running.
Does the lockscreen too.

I am actually a Motorola Atrix 2 owner but have been using this launcher and widget for months now...really enjoy it and read that someone on an HTC 4G device was able to install it as well via CWM. Well my girl has an Incredible 2 and I decided to give it a whirl and whaddya know? It worked. Here's a DB link of mine of the zip: http://db.tt/PxWxjC79 Here's the thread where I got the download link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1906402 Enjoy and I would advise a wipe of cache and davik cache as well before flashing the zip. Heres some attached screenshots. If anyone wants to or can make it anymore better or mod it up for the INC 2 device itself, feel free. Hope anyone enjoys it as much as I do!
P.S. If you flick the circles they flip to the other side. Clock being analog one side and digital the other. Weather you can add cities on and on and on...(as many cities as you want.) And the battery's opposite side is a settings icon for a quick setting short-cut. Also fogot to mention that the left side is first page on launcher. Far left is quick setting page and far right is where you can keep adding pages and what not. Preview allows you to swap up pages too. Couple side notes as well are scrolling wallpaper does not work with this launcher. The dock is like stock moto with app names showing without edit option. AND the weather may start out on C° reading so in settings youll have to change to F° if thats your preferrence. IMHO I love the widgets and its so worth it. They're really cool.

It could possibly be for only 4.0. Try extracting and putting all in system/app and re-permission, reboot. If the weather apk is missing I'll post back with a link.

It wouldn't work on 2.3 but I tried it on JB and it worked. Unfortunately I can't figure out how to modify the dock beyong adding and removing icons, and that makes it a no-go for me. Otherwise, those widgets are baddass!
Thank you!
It's very cool.... I installed it, but found there to be quite a great deal of tearing and the dock is misaligned.. It's a nice launcher though with great home widgets. Makes me not mind trying a RAZR Maxx HD when I get an upgrade. Thanks for this peak. :thumbup:
