HTC Desire Doubts ROMs

Hi!
Friends, I'm new to the forum and am looking for some ROM that has the option to hide icons, music, files, etc.
Smartphone see more and more as a personal computer, but always have a friend from work, personal friend, a family that wants to move out of curiosity on the smartphone. So look for ROMs that have the option to hide apps, photos, videos, music, files, or all that this smartphone. Example: You want to hide the game Angrybirds for a child to not see him and be done with the device's battery. The ROM would choose to hide the icon so it does not appear in the list of applications and only be accessed through an explorer.
Has anyone thought about it?
Does anyone know of a ROM that has this option?
Thanks,
Roka

Try look for an app on the market. I am sure there is something out there. I don't think (like 99% sure) that a rom doesn't include this. Have a look for an app.

Normally in cyanogenMOD there is an option to hide apps in the app drawer that you don't use often. They are not deleted but are hidden when you simply press app drawer, although they are only one click away from be seen.

CyanogenMod uses ADWLauncher not the default launcher by Google.

download adw launcher from the market. or flash cyanogen mod which comes with adw installed. open your app drawer and click menu. it will say create new catalog. create 1 then choose which apps u want in your hidden catalog

4) there's no support for live wallpapers.

thats what i meant. its much better to have them inside the apps

1) ability to add widgets in the first page of homescreen (dont know if its possible or not but i didnt see it)
2) you cant do a google search in the adress bar in dolfin.
3)when you delete historial in dolfin, most visited remains there and you have to delete pages one by one

yes man we know. but its not inside the app.

yeah settings should be in the app itself.
option missing to unlock screen with any button.
file manager shows either phone memory or card, not both.
gallery sucks
cant find image editor, but it was promoted in early bada 2 videos, so it should come.
voice input opens randomly...
new camera sucks too, for example there is only option: preview on and off, but not the 2secs option anymore. i liked the old camera.
in file manager long press on files doesnt work...
in music player i liked old cover flow. and theres an option to view current playlist, but you cant delete/move tracks there. and maybe when viewing single tracks in music player, at least i dont need the cover art at every track. its just slowing down.

[Q] a few questions new andriod user her please HELP ME

hello guys, i did own a iphone but had so many problems so sold it and bought the htc one x while i love it and me being a first time android user i have a few questions please needing answered...ok here we go
1, the home screen wallpaper what size do i need to make one for just to have the middle home screen? so it will stay static across all homescreen's without scroll? what dimension's?
2, how do install ringtones, music , pictures as i'm on a macbook, can i just plug it into the usb to computer and drag and drop?
3, can i alter my default icons to different ones like the phone , sms icons etc...to custom ones i'm running stock everything as its brand new out the box yesterday and would like to keep it that way if possible...? is it possible?
4, how do i delete app's off the phone i no longer want?
5, i saw a app UCCW custom clock maker how can i install one's from here people have posted zip file for where do the files go? and can i use them running stock firmware etc out of the box?

1. 1280x720...someone please correct me if I'm wrong
2. I usually connect my phone and then open my phone's drive and extract my music files into the "dcim" folder. However you can also just use a program like windows media player or winamp or whatever else program and it should do the transferring part for you. Same with images, I put them in the dcim folder.
If you want to set a song or tune as your ring tone simply open your music app, touch and hold the song/tune you'd like to usw until an option menu extends. Option should be there, simply follow it
3. Yes, you can. However changing icons might only seem possible without rooting your phone if you use an external launcher. Try searching for "go launcher" in the play store. Or use "nova launcher".. note that you won't be able to use sense widgets on external launchers.

4. Open your app drawer, click and touch an app you would like to uninstall. The.background will turn to your home screen and the top right corner should be highlighted "uninstall". Simply drag your all over.
5. That is something someone else would have to answer, but they would be doing me a favor as well, haha! Good luck with your one x. Welcome on board

shadehh has replied most of your questions but I could add in .
4 . You can go to Setting > Apps and click on the apps you want to uninstall too . You can also download Easy Uninstaller from Play Store to have a more easy uninstalling experience .
5 . In android , we use a file type ".apk" to install stuff such as Window's ".exe" to install stuff and so on . So maybe the zip file of the app you mentioned consist the apk file in the zip and yes you can use them running stock firmware etc out of the box .

You can create a folder called "Ringtones" on the root directory of your sdcard and put whatever mp3 you want to use as your ringtone in it. This mp3 can then be selected from settings -> personalize -> sound -> ringtones.
The same goes for alarms and notifications. Just create folders called "Alarms" and "Notifications" on the root directory of your sdcard and they will be selectable in the personalization settings.

[Q] Slimkat 4.4.4

I just flashed Slimkat 4.4.4. My phone is rooted. No major issues, thank God, I only have a few questions.....
1. How do you change the lock screen? I don't like the Nova launcher, I'm using the Google launcher and there's an "M" and a fat dot with two dashes I want to delete.
2. Where do I copy my notification sounds and music from the sd card to the phone? I couldn't locate where they are in Root Explorer.
3. How do I get rid of the Google search bar on the home screen?
Thank you very much!
Jennifer

might get more info by also reading/asking in slimkat thread.
good luck.
err on the side of kindness

lock screen? or do you mean launcher? if you don't like nova launcher or google launcher, download other launchers, simple as that, you can also remove Nova Launcher too if you want, it's under setting, slim center or something like that..
as for lock screen, as in wallpaper/targets? it's all in setting-->security
notification, for phone? text? just get some explorers (like ES file explorer or solid explorer, etc..) then go to setting under phone or sms to change, make sure you have those sounds and musics you want in your sd card
as for google search bar? you're using google launcher... if you can't drag and delete or remove/uncheck it from setting, ask google for it

Looks good. Accubattery is better for battery stats and the Samsung Internet Browser (really!) is the best browser. https://www.androidauthority.com/samsung-internet-browser-android-793983/

For SMS's try this app - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.android.smsorganizer&hl=en_IN
It automatically segregates most of the transaction/spam sms into separate bins and does a good job of it.

Best calendar IMHO is Business Calendar 2. Interface is much better than Google Calendar, more customizable, and syncs with Google Calendar flawlessly

I've been using the Norton junk cleaner for system and such, and manually cleaning the cache for the apps that get bad. Does sd maid do app cache cleaning too? I see it works with root. Also, is it worth it to get pro? Tell me more please!

I personally like AppMgr III (App Manager 3) for System/Cache Cleaner and, especially (but not applicable for taimen), if you have a device that employs an external sd card...

Kb: gboard or swiftkey
Antivirus/cache cleaner/batt monitor: not needed
Launcher: nova prime
Sms/contacts/calendar/dialer:stock
Email: outlook
Browser: chrome or samsung internet
File manager: solid explorer
Photo editor: tookwiz photo
Financial/video: dont use any
Password manager/auto fill: enpass
Doc scanner: camscanner
Todo list: ticktick and keep
Notes: onenote

Keyboard - Was a huge SwiftKey user and even did betas and forum moderating for them but now Gboard.
Antivirus - None
System / Cache Cleaner - None
Launcher - Nova Prime but currently Pixel Launcher until Nova updates to fully support Pixel Launcher features.
Calendar - Google Calendar
Battery Monitor - None
SMS, Dialer, Contacts - Stock ones
Browser - Chrome
File Explorer - Stock "Files" app in Android P; "Downloads" in Oreo.
Finance Management - Mint
Photo Editor - Google Photos, Aviary, Facetune
Video Editor - Google Photos
Ones not in your categories:
Instant messaging - Allo (Yes I have converted my family and closest friends to it)
Video chat - Duo
Fitness - Google Fit
Music - Google Play Music and iHeartRadio
To do - Google Keep
Sleep tracking - Sleep as Android
