Hello
Since the update from a11 to a12 i must say that for me it was quite a step back in many ways. I can live with most of the things but i cant get over the quick settings. Its a huge deal breaker, i wonder is there any solution out there one could completely replace this crappy big tiles altogether ideally systemwise as those pesky apps like power shade actually dont work really well. Or is there any AOSP rom that would have? I guess no? So probably OOS would be only option?
I am searching far and wide and seems there isnt anything. But if anyone would know of something give us shout!
Many thanks

exactly, what are you talking about?
Official rom has small tiles

the huge ones are on aosp roms
if i am not mistaking "anciet" has A11 tiles, or for A12Aosp you can try "project themer A12" on the store
... maybe also "aosp customizer" majsk module allows somethink like that, on rice it is also customizable in 2,3,4 columns per row
yes thats what i am talking about...going back to OOS if there wont be anything to fix AOSP roms
That's was one of the reasons I came back to 11. Couldn't stand 12 view and feeling.

Since Microsoft first released Windows Phone 7, I convinced my self to "NOT BUY" the very first release because I know and I think most of us knows that a few months or weeks, an improved version will be available.. Well probably upgrading a ROM is the answer but anyway, my few suggestions to improve some navigations.
A like to suggest in horizontal panning effect which I think is a very nice and beautiful. But to improve the navigation, here are some my suggestion.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Ok. So another one would be, in Application List navigation.
also posted in my blog site
http://jaysonragasa.net/post/A-few-suggestion-for-Windows-Phone-7.aspx
To be honest, those are nice concepts. I can easily see the Application list getting changed to allow grid support. Can't say much about the other.
FYI Windows Phone 7 is going to be very easy to update. It has a real updater unlike Windows Mobile. You wont have to flash a rom and wipe out all your apps and settings to get OS updates anymore. At least thats what Microsoft is claiming.

the question is, will it be "free" ? which I don't believe it will.
and if not .. well most of us I think will still swim around this kind of site for free upgrade, patched ROMs that we will still injecting in our phone's vains
EDIT:
-- ok, so hopefully it will be free like Windows OS
another suggestion would be
Bing search results.
Will it be nice to search inside your phone too such as Contacts, Applications, Calendar, and files? here's the preview.
MIUI lockscreen app "MiLocker"can be downloaded now! Android 2.3 supported even if you are not using MIUI rom.

It is there, but you have to look for it on the online list and it is like at the very bottom.
I tried it it kinda worked but it was unable to installed some lockscreen themes from online. Also didnt like it that the Lockscreen showed chinese/Jap letters couldnt find the options to change it either.
Thanks
Def what I was looking for to update my bland lockscreen.
Looks like it's officially in the Market, too! Here's a market link in case you're uncomfortable allowing it to "Autoly check." At least I THINK that's what that option is supposed to do!
As one of the reviews says, this definitely feels like a beta release. I'm sure they'll add more translation in future releases, because right now the heavy amount of kanji is kind of a turnoff for a person who doesn't know how to read that.
EDIT: looks like you can add wallpapers by dropping them into /sdcard/miui/wallpaper

I second that. I love MIUI, it's pretty much the only rom I ran on my Evo. That being said, the chinese characters are annoying.
Edit: Sapphire is easily the best option. It's in English too!
Over the past three weeks Have been trying assortment of roms. Dont like the look and feel of TW. I like the abilities of CM because i can shut of the phantom menu, but i have been getting wakelocks and LOS and the rotation is slow or doesnt even work. especially after hanging up calls.
I would just like a recomendation for a stable ROM with no LOS and customizable. Battery i know depends on the phone so i wont even ask.
Or even fixes for those problems. I am currently on CM 10.1rc2 build date 9/18
Have you tried some of the themed TouchWiz ROMs? That's where you're gonna get stability... Here's my latest if you dare to try it mwahaha (mad scientist laugh)-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2320041.. I've got a 4.3 AOSP version on there too but I wouldn't recommend that for stability.

Pretty much, check out the huge features list in Post #1
Looks very nice. the launcher seems very comparable to apex launcher. love to gesture to get to things. ill add some high contrast icons, because i work outside and need to see. Thank you. will report back after i give it a whirl. in case somebody else has the same question.
Really loving rom. Have question about unlock screen. I changed it to aosp but I can't find any where to change the targets..and thanks for the inverted play store. Have the app.but I always screw up installation and give up.I always search, hence only 10 posts in over 2 years
Can't change targets.
A few days ago, I started modifying my stock launcher on my Galaxy Tab3 (GT-P5200). I've focused on the dock.
Till now I've managed to modify the launcher so far, that I can store up to 13 icons on the dock.
I also managed to remove the text from the icons. This is how my screen looks at the moment.

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now I want to continue modifying the dock by making it scrollable (like the homescreen or appdrawer).
And before anyone suggests me exactly, what I do not want, I'll explain briefly what is important for me.
I don't want to use a different launcher (like Nova / AWD / Apex / or something like that).
I also do not want to use any other app, which modifies my launcher.
I simply want to modify my stock launcher (TouchWiz) by modifying the code itself
I would appreciate it if anyone could help me or at least could explain to me
where the scrolling of the homescreens is defined in the code.
.
Wonder how you get 13 icons in the dock? Wish I had that option.

Well, ... I just modified SecLauncher3.apk. But I recognized that these 13 apps won't survive a reboot.
When I reboot my device, the system/launcher (or whatever it is) resets the dock, so that only 10 apps
will be shown after reboot. I still have the possibility to put up to 13 apps on the dock, but after reboot,
only 10 apps will be shown.

Oh, yeah...thanks! I had never concidered (with my limited knowledge) that the launcher is also just an apk running on android. big ah-ha moment for me there. Thanks for the eye opener.

Hi all, thanks for looking ...
I have several updates pending on my (working very well) M8, the feedback on these updates seem really naff so I haven't applied them !
What are your thoughts ? Have you updated and were they OK .
The camera is the main worry I guess.
Cheers

If you're on stock, you should update as they are mainly new features & bug fixes so you'll have better experience.
If you're on some custom ROM with many tweaks then you need to see whether the ROM dev update them or not in their ROM thread.
Stock ...
I guess by the lack of replies that it's probably safe to assume that the negative feedback on playstore might be from HTC haters ?

I update everything all the time, I never run into any issues if you notice on Google Play Store even the most simple app like a calculator or flashlight still has negative reviews, most of these people posting those reviews are absolute noobs, like preppy school girls, grandma's and gangsters lol
Some reviews are just dumb either saying ONLY "fix it! update messed everything up!" without saying anything is even specifically messed up or something like "now that certain button is blue instead of green? you change without my permission? 1 star!!! fix!"
Some of these updates are actually important either fixing a known issue or making the app more compatible after one of your OTA updates.
Or of course like the new version of the "Google" app for example new features and new pretty animations are added
Cheers chaps, updated everything and the phone still works ?
And it still works ?
