I'm not going to go into details yet but as you can see the core is quite similar to Sense UI however, it will be a combination of all the things that I wanted on my phone. The speed is surprising very good and I hope it will remain at that as I add more things.
I'll re-open another thread for discussion when this gets a bit further down wt more contents. For now, any inputs are welcome.
BTW, skinners who wants to contribute, pls PM me. Thks.

Nice work!
You are using manila files to do that? I mean, you use manila.exe with your custom manila files? Or is this something similar to wad and nothing to do with manila?
ETA on a release?

Very nice! Please also share stats like memory usage, battery consumption, speed, etc.
Looks promising, keep up the great work!

This is fantastic. I have used HTC Hero Sense UI and found it's awesomely smooth, especially with the animated horizontal tab/page slides, animated apps/windows open and close, vertical notification bar slides, etc just to name a few, which WM based HTC Sense could have implemented and removed the tabs. Unfortunately it just didn't happen.
I think you have found a way to fully exploit the potential of HTC Sense UI which WM alone just couldn't do it. I hope you could add those animated features in as well. It will make our WM-based Sense more sensible
I am looking forward for your new toy, Max. You have done brilliant works on MaxManila! Keep up the good works!

Wow, looks fantastic. And very smooth for an "over night" thing *ggg*
When you need someone for betatesting i would be available.
One Question. Programs like Kalender, SMS, etc... . Do you use the Standard WM or the HTC Sense versions for your UI?
greets

Happy days ahead!

Maxycy !!!
Awesome !!!
Wonderful job and very promising !
( Could you consider adding a CPU usage indicator (CPU%)

good job! So from the screenshot you're planning to go fullscreen?

looking great...
just one suggestion (and I would be very happy if I could see it in your Max Manilla 2.5 app) - could you make so that we could use multiple wallpapers for background (portrait and landscape). I mean so we could specify a folder containing pictures so that the pictures could be changed every minute or so, or everytime we change from portrait to landscape and back...
something as the option that is available at S2U2 app for there wallpapers...

wow wow
prepairing 4 W7​
​

Looks awesome!
This might be a dumb question, but I'm still gonna ask it :
Will this work on the HD2?

Bro this is simply amazing, cant wait for the final release eheheh, it looks beatifull!!!

Very exciting!! Can't wait for a release! You never cease to amaze me with what you do! Keep it up, my friend and please send some pointers to HTC dev. team if you have the time! LOL!

Awesome!!! Can't wait to try it mate!

Awesome, please, when you're done, create a QVGA version. Please! This is the perfect UI! (seriously)

I'm sorry can't refrain to congrate you of what you have done! Funtastic ...hope it will be much lighter and snap UI

Awesome man! Keep up the good work..

Looks great. Will it work on Rhodium?

Amazing job!

WOW! That's looking great! Well done job! Woop Woop ^^

I've included this as an option for VillainROM 2.1, so I thought I'd share it for other developers/users.
It's a SLIGHTLY modified version of Espresso Rosie. I've removed those horrible, windows mobile style bubbles, which look awful.
In addition, I have run each directory through a series of different PNG Optimizers, which has cut the unpacked file-size down to 0.5mb less than it was previously. This should speed up navigation somewhat.
Please note: Any rom using this will crash if switched to 7 homescreens.
Just flash over the top of your current 2.X Sense rom!
This should work on:
VillainROM
[email protected]
Chpoubs (Unsure now they've added a strange theme)
Espresso-Hybrid
Hero21 Community (Untested)
Enjoy!
Please leave feedback if you have any issues. I plan to further tweak this when I have some time.

looks great..
but, does this include the Rosie launcher??

a litlle pack of HTC Widget is possible?

what will happend if you push these files by adb into your normail original HERO rom phone ?

Hi, it's nice to see Espresso has been optmized, but I still have a really annoying problem with it. When you press the "Search People" icon in the launcher (I mean the one in the right), it takes you to a modified version of standard "Search People", and every time I try to select a contact, it asks me for its default action, and then to attach him or her a picture. It doesn't matter what you do, if you select any picture, the contact magically disappears from this list, and you can't select it again from there. Anyways, the default Search People works ok. COuld you try to fix that, please?
Thanks for your huge effort!

Not when you install Espresso
It defaults to 5 but you can option it to 7.... but it would then crash on you

i install on villarom but don't go why?

You have to flash villain, let it boot, turn it off, flash espresso and then boot again. That worked for me.

search contact issue
I love the look of the espresso rosie but the search contacts on the right side of the menu links to a search contacts apk that is not linked to the actual contacts. THerefore rather useless.
note. Im using Villian rom 2.1 (runs 1.5 dialer which may be the problem)

I think the issue with the contact buttom on the front, is linked to the correct contacts, but it is very slow, if you have many contacts. I don't think it is due to 1.5 dialer, as i had the same problem on Hero Expresso/Hybrid 1.2. When you enter the search, and leaves it there for 10-20 sec, all contacts pop up, it is just VERY slow.
Hopefully this can be fixed?

I didn't say I'd fixed it - nor did I say it was 100%
I've simply optimized the PNG files, shrinking down the size. In addition, I've removed the bubbles, then re-signed it. Not a big job, granted; but I thought I'd share it.

I did not mean that you should have fixed it. I thought it was an error in the other ROM i used, but the problem is here as well.
We hope you maybee will look at it, when you get the time. All in all it runs well, and this together with Villain 2.1 runs much more smooth than my previous ROM, so i am very happy

[LAUNCHER] ADW Launcher! WORKS WITH HERO!

I am not responsible for any damage done
ADW launcher is an alternative to whatever launcher you currently have. It CAN BE UNSTABLE AT TIMES!
It is very customizable, remember I take no credit for Development, I just found it and thought it might be worth sharing.

Notes:
Only works with 2.1 Eclair ROMS!
Wallpaper shifts down slightly upon unlocking
I have been using it for a while now, and no problems yet.
I have been pleasantly surprised of how popular it has become in one night of bringing it up =0
PM me with any questions.
Yours Truly,
Hanser01

I use ADW on VanillaEclair 2.0.1 and it runs flawlessly. I highly recommend it; the shortcut keys left and right of the apps menu are incredibly useful, and full support for Live Wallpapers is working and, best of all, optional - turning it off makes things much more responsive.

It works NICE! :> just testing =)

Much prefer Helix Launcher, best version of Helix for Hero is 1.2a. Like the fact you can have 4 shortcuts permanent on the bottom (dont like the hidden away ones you can have on ADW).
Also for me ADW isnt as stable and the wallpaper seems to lag behind transitons.

It was already here

Im using this on a hero based rom on my eris and I must say, that I'm head over heels with this home replacement.i haven't experienced any instabilities with it. the next best thing for this program now is that it hits the market! I will download it, pay for it, whatever! Just lemme know when it'll be official. Please!!! Keep up the good work mr anderweb, im hoping you can expand its compatibility with other devices. Ive heard about a few of us eris users complain about it not being able to launch and some fc's. But it works flawlessly on my eris with hero based rom.

SuperHero is donators only at the moment; Nathan says he'll do a public release in the coming week. It's probably worth the wait, as the feedback thread is full of praise, and I'm hyped about having the ROM that Vanillain Hybrid was supposed to be.

ADW launcher works fine also in Androbin

If You Have Suggestions please post them here. Also I am putting the finishing touches on this rom. I will release once I get approval from some devs that I borrowed som images from.

I dunno, it kinda just looks like a themed Sense ROM. I'm sure people will like it though so you should just post it up in development and see what happens.

Man...this is nice! can't to give it a try

Post it up

If you want you could share the setup for others if they want it, because it is heavily themed for a sense rom.
It would be better if you wanted to share a theme rather than a rom.

Suprisingly its about 175 mb

What else is there to this ROM? Zip-align, optimized apps, optimized launcher, custom kernel, Hulu, Updater app, etc. Cause like what everyone else said, it just looks like a theme.
Like what someone else said before, it might be better off just putting the theme up and offering up a ton of mods and customizations.

What he said.
In the long run it might be easier to just release a theme. That way you don't have to take all of the time to fix broken things and what not. Unless of course you really dedicate the time, in which case have at it!

I'm not trying to say its not impressive. It looks great. There are a ton of themes out there and I'm sure there are a lot of people who are interested in another theme. ROMs generally have something about them beside visual modifications.

+1, Looks pretty, but what's under the hood?

Just added a bunch of mods including,
Remaped search button to be used as a camera button
removed data throttling
optimized apps
A lot of battery saving stuff
and a couple more i forgot

It looks like it has a lot of potential! Keep working on it There are a lot of different good Roms out there so you have to kinda step it up to set it apart from the others. but good job

i have to say the images of this rom look AWESOME!!!!!! if it becomes a stable rom when released for every day use. i would highly consider checking this out
but if i can say a IDEA. change the keyboard a little. reminds me of myn's warm keyboard which i didn't like. a dark blue keyboard would look great or the same style you got now but but add like kinda dark blue lines to show how big the keys are for each letter/symbol.

I've Finished Theming the rom. Just need to add some mods and I'll be done.

I really like the blue rosie. Can you make an update file for that??? I dont know if thats possible, but would love to put that on my phone instead of the standard green
Great work

Id rock that s%it!! All day!!

Hell yea bro......looks sick.......

Have you considered making a 4x5 layout version if this theme? 4 columns by 5 rows. A lot of devs and themers are making 4x5 version layouts. The 4x5 layout is the only version some devs use in their roms. Just a thought. Either way great work and thanks for the contribution.

[REQ] Sense 3.0 Lockscreen

Nope that's the Honeycomb(-look) lockscreen.
Sense 3.0 lockscreen is like this:
You drag the silver hoop out of the bottom.

That's more like Honeycomb.
The Sense stuff can't be ported as easily as that. Too much is Rosie dependant. E.g. the Sense 3.0 lockscreen has shortcuts to dialer, camera and some other random stuff. In short, it's not going to happen, unless someone wants to do a full port which is being worked on but I wouldnt hold my breath.
If you want a Sense 3.0 lockscreen, but a Sensation/Pyramid.

I'm sure someone could make a lockscreen where you drag the silver hoop out of the bottom to unlock the device, and a simple clock/weather above that but that sorta destroys the point of the lockscreen (the 'active' part).
Without the sense framework in place I don't think we'll be able to get anything more than the above (look without the function).
To be fair it does look pretty cool, so if anyone does make a lockscreen like what I just described I'm sure plenty would still like/use it

But it's not really that good either. I find Tw totally underwhelming. It's also very uncustomizable. Which is a pain because the icon dock is too damn big and the app draw sucks big time.
Also the lock screen is horrendous. Compared to sense 3.0 it's just sad.

It's really a matter of personal choice.
If looks of the interface is more important for you rather than the hardware and performance then you might as well buy the Sensation.

Well actually that influence performance too... from sense lockscreen you can call the camera without additional clicks so you can draw a photo immediately or going directly to the dialer...
A non paginated drawer is faster when you have to scroll hundreds apps... but as you said is a matter of personal choices
