[Q] Sense Rotation - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody, is there someone who could help to find some easy way to make HTC Sense rotate? I found some threads where it was not fully understandable described for me. Unpack Rosie.apk, change parameters in Androidmanifest.xml.
How can I edit xml file of this kind? I tried notepad, Wordpad, nothing works. Will it work if I pack edited file back to apk?

Tell me, do you feel that your question is related to ROM development?

Use a launcher.

Question from 2 posts above stands and is right on money. Having said that, have you tried posting in the right section of the forum (Desire Q&A) or using notepad++ for editing?! Don't answer here, this thread needs to be closed.

MP4 for Htc 2.2b thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478050

personally i think the mp4forHtc is a better app an calling attention to the choice would be useful.

I can't find the background for all tabs .cab

I had it at one point, but don't know where I put it when I uninstalled it to try some other things. Can somoene post the link, I keep coming up with the manilla thread (and I don't use manilla)
here you are
PS: What do you mean I don't use manilla?
haha sorry, I didn't catch that. I meant I'm not familiar with doing this stuff manually.
thanks tho!
here's a link to nisse's background for all tabs including a couple of cool backgrounds. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2869354&postcount=571
I however am unable to get it to work. I have tried running manila and have managed to get 4a087e41_manila (background picture) file on there but cant seem to get the 5c9aa261_manila as it says it's copyright protected and wont delete or replace the file. I'm running dutty's v1.7. Any help with this would be appreciated maybe a step by step if it's not too much to ask.
hey guys !
there is a dedicated thread "TF3D collection" that contains all what you need to customize the TF3D, and the background for all tabs .cab was in there
please use the search function, or check the sticked threads before posting a question

[Q][Gingerbread] How to solve certificates mismatch when editing SystemUI.apk

Hi,
first of all, allow me to apologize that I am posting this into dev section instead of Q&A, but IMHO this topic is strongly tied with actual development and its not just a simple newbie question. If you disagree, please contact a mod with a request to move this thread to Q&A. Thanks.
Now lets cut to the chase. I am trying to alter some images inside the SystemUI.apk that was introduced with GB, mainly I want a semi-transparent statusbar. Problem is, when I modify the resources, rebuild the apk file using apktool and sign it using testsign, the modified package gets ingnored by the system because of shared UID certificate mismatch. If I understand it correctly, I must find the package using the shared UID and resign it with the same certificate as the modified SystemUI.apk. Am I right? If so, how can I determine the package apk file based only on the knowledge of its shared UID? If I'm totally wrong, please, correct me.
Thanks a lot,
squrl
Ok, so it has been moved already. Curious, if I get any answers here
Bump.

[Q]decompile and edit home.apk

Hi all,
I`got a problem to decompile the stock home.apk.
Everytime i decompile i get a error saying i have the wrong framework installed but i have the right one installed manually.
I want to have rotate on homescreen only 3 screens and 3rd thing 6 rows and 6 cols. I have to change the folder res\values\ i think but how can i get it or better edit it.
Is their anyone out here who can give me a link or a little tutorial howto.
I have had a look at several pages and gave lot`s of promissing tools a go but nothing helped me out .....
so much moders can please only one share his knowledge
Your best bet would probably to ask someone like vr5411 who posted this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1519742

Adding an apk to SecSettings.apk

I've run through several how-to's and I still can't get an app to compile after I make the changes to add something to the settings app. I make the changes to strings xml and settings_header but then it won't compile. The reason for it not compiling seems to be an issue with the android manifest xml but in all I have done I do not alter it (or maybe I need to)
Anyone have an idea ? Thank you !

Most devs don't cruise the Q&A section, so you will probably get more help here. It will also benefit other members having it all in one place.
Some more info will help like what app you are trying to add.

Thank you. It's a bit unclear the best place to ask questions not related to flashing or someone else's ROM. That and I was getting pretty mad and now that
I read my above question,it is so vague and rambling.
I posted my question over there.
