So, if you have only 2 pages on your main screen on the HOX, and use wallpapers like these, you'll see that each word will fit each screen (so, on screen 1 you'll have the word "FAVS", and on the 2nd screen you'll have "HOME").
Is there any way to do this for 3 pages? I wanted a "FAVS", "GAMES" and "HOME" wallpaper, but every way I put it, the words keep overlapping to other pages (for instance, in the middle "GAMES" page, you would see the S from "FAVS").
Thanks in advance.
Guess making 4 isn't an option?

Make it 4, then. How would I do it? Without having the words overlap the other pages, what would the resolution and disposition of the words be?
Is this actually do-able?
You could try to make a widget on every page you need which says "favs" or whatever using uccw.
That way the wallpaper would onmy be a background.

Heh I thought of that just as I refreshed the page to read your comment.
But still, would be nice to be able to do stuff like that in the wallpaper.
For now I'll stick with the widgets then, but if someone actually knows how to do a wallpaper with any number of pages (except 2, that one's easy) that don't overlap each other, please share!

So I just tried that, and that's EXACTLY what I wanted. Thing is, it's laggy when moving between pages.
I've even changed the "Maximum Memory Usage" setting to "Unlimited", to no avail.
Any non-laggy alternatives?

I've been playing with mine since Saturday now and have started to notice some issues.
1. Albums in the music player are not listed correctly. If i have an album by various artists it shows as a different album for each artist. My hero never used to do this.
2. When i charge the battery sometime it stops at around 90% and wont charge anymore until i unplug and plug it back in.
3. Friend stream is set to update every 2 hours but doesn't seem to. And i got no notifications from the Facebook app unless i manually refresh it.
Over all I'm please with the Desire, but I'm starting to think that maybe it was released too early, before all the bugs where ironed out.
Is anyone else having any of these issues?
Why do you think HTC released this phone only at T-mobile?
It's because they needed normal users to find out issues
One album for each artist sounds like you have a different "Album artist" on each track. Windows Media Center etc also shows it as different albums if the album artists are different, even though Album name is the same. I'm guessing that if you keep the "Artist"-tag as it is, and rename the "Album Artist"-tag to "Various Artists" or something like that using a tag editor, it will appear as one album.
I don't have a Desire yet, so can't confirm it, but I recently did a big job of fixing my entire music catalog to avoid this problem.
The problem with the Facebook app is a pain in the arse, it doesn't update whatever you set it too. Had the same problem on the Hero, so I assume it's the app itself.
Plus Friendstream is overated and lacks alot of features.
Can't wait to root and remove all of that crap, can't even uninstall the Facebook app.
I'm using the facebook app. Every message I get it updates. Friendstream I deleted and use the native applications. Albums work but only when they are labelled correctly. One of my albums didnt work, named it correctly and now its 100% fine.

What we mean by Facebook updates, is where it's suppose to notify you at the top of the screen...and it doesn't.
I HATE that there is no dedicated camera shutter button coz I'm vain and all so if I want to take a pic of myself sometimes I'll end up touching the screen when trying to press the trackball etc! It's damn hard holding the lower part of the phone where the trackpad is and press it if you wanna take pic of yourself lol

it does sort the apps menu... hit menu, edit , sort , save... and the lockscreen thing is easily fixed by swapping fonts

Hi all,
I've changed quite a few ROMs lately trying to find the one I like most. I'm using a Desire Z.
I'm running my Work email client (lotus notes traveler) that requires the phone to have a screen lock <=30min. It seems like that apart from Sense ROM that has a native lock screen timer any other market app to delay it gets overridden by Notes settings
I tested
Cyan: like the speed, not so much the GUI, also trieded it with LaucherPRO that i prefer to ADW this is not really my preferred one. Battery is average for me on this ROM
MIUI: love it, problem is I can't extend the lock-screen time to 30 minutes and I hate typing password every single time. (tried a few apps from the market but Lotus Notes for Android over-rides their settings)
Virtuous Glite: Love the lightness and speed and battery life, also like the clean minimalistic GUI, same problem as with MIUI.... lock screen
Virtuous Unity: Apart from battery life I love this ROM. Lock-Screen here works perfectly allowing me to apply 30min delay
Each one has things that I like and Unity is the one that gets closer to what I need apart from battery life.
So this is my shopping list, can you help me finding the perfect one?
Extended battery? How about stick an 1800mah from an evo in there ?

isnt there a lockscreen app on market to fully customize? i had a paid lockscreen app that let me do pretty much anything i just forget the name....i wanna say "something locker"
Have you tried flashing your radio to the one recommended in the Unity thread (also in my sig)?
With Unity and the matching radio, I can get 48 hrs with fairly light usage. But if its truly a radio issue, this can be very locational dependent, of course.

I think there are other applications similar to widget locker. Do a search for widget locker on market and check similar apps. You can probably email them and see if they do what you need.
Anyone know how to create the red/blue static thats in the Battlefield 3 menu when youre respawning? Or at least what the effect is called.
You would need adobe after effects. If u mean as a still picture then its easy on Photoshop.

You could do a HTML/JS (or HTML 5) rollover effect when the mouse rolls over the image it switches to the staticy-broken one like on battlelog.
Do a search for "HTML javascript image rollover"

The stock 4.1 launcher has 5 homescreens. You can't add or remove screens. The "pinch and zoom" you describe is not a feature in stock Android (never has been), and is often added by third-party launchers.
You can download one of the many popular third-party launchers in the Play Store. They offer these features and more if you'd like them.
There are many different launchers that change the way your Android phone look and interact, but if you like light weight and fast, try the Holo or Xperia launcher, link in my signature.
WELCOME to the world of Android. Don't forget to read the first sticky thread of this Q&A section.

Andriod has so many options for everything, Try as many as you can to find whats best for you.
Apex + Nova launchers are a good place to start if the stock launcher is not for you.
this is how you delete extra homescreen
I have a tab 2, this Samsung ui is great I see no need to replace it, here is how thou remove the extra homescreens, lay 3 or 4 fingers on the home screen and bring them quickly together like a pinch, try out till you get it right, you can thrn hold and drsg the uneeded screens to the garbage can. Ez pleezy.
