The Ultimate Droid 2.3.0 - All Devices - D1, INC, EVO 4G, Desire CDMA & GSM

Since I am using Launcherpro, is there an easy way to remove the stock launcher for good? There is no ADW Launcher when I go into the apps directory using root explorer.

Well I already did it before I got to read that post. I just let it sync but it didn't even sync any of my downloaded apps. Just the paid ones so it worked out. Weird though. And I use TB but not always because sometimes it doesn't show the installed apps under downloads which kinda bugs me even though if you go to the app it says installed.

And to delete ADW, use RE to go to /system/app and ADW will be inside there. Click mount r/w and delete

EDIT: /system/app, not /system/media. That is for boot animations. Thanks, Tallica for noticing.

Thank you, but its honestly not showing up for me. I have a "Launcher.apk," but no ADW Launcher.

I believe it's system/app and I think it's just named Launcher.apk
Oh - that explains it, then. I thought I was going nuts not being able to find ADW Launcher. Thanks guys!
 
Well you can disable the overscroll and it might fix the issue since that is what causes it

Disabled overscroll, rebooted, and still the same problem. It didn't fix the 3D app drawer.

By the way, where's this green bar battery icon that people are talking about? This might help my battery percentage problem...

Ah, sorry man. I have the same problem with CM. I kinda like not having the 3D affect though. But I also like it quite a bit. And I have no idea. I looked in every UD setting multiple times and I could not find it anywhere. I use the Revolution round battery icon for my roms though so...

No problem man, thanks for the suggestion, as I thought that was going to work too. And for your battery icon, do you get that from the Revolution theme?

Yeah, sorry about that. I should've stated the name better and paid closer attention to what I posted since I said /media the first time rather than /app which is completely different haha. Glad you got it worked out though

No problem. There may be a fix for it but I don't know of one. And not exactly. Luigi made one for me as a metamorph theme that works on any ROM. So, when I flash, I just apply it real quick and that's that. Takes about 10 seconds to install so it doesn't bother me to install it every flash. If you want, I can provide a link to it for you.

Sure, that would be great. I'll give it a try. Just flash it as a .zip in recovery?

Here is the link: MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service. And no. You have to download Metamorph from the market (it's free). Once you download that and everything it will place a folder on your SD card named AndroidThemes. Mount your phone and place the .zip inside the AndroidThemes folder. Then, you open up Metamorph, run the checks that it prompts on every startup, and then click extract new theme(something along those lines), bottom left button. You'll go to the REVOlution.zip file and click it. It will do it's thing and probably say that it wasn't written correctly but it still does what it needs to do. Then go and click the other button(existing theme) and it will open the folder, click REVOlution again and it will show a file named REVOlution icon.xml or something like that, click on that one and install. It will have a green M next to the .xml file.

EDIT: It will ask you to reboot, which is normal. Once the phone reboots the change will be made.

Is anyone else having problems with the answer sliders being off on an incoming call???

Yeah, I've seen a few people post on that already. I've got it too.

O ok i haven't really read through the posts on here, I wonder If a theme would fix that issue up? prob will try it later when NexTheme drops for it tonight.

Might be a good call... let me know how that works out. I don't really wanna change the theme cuz I really like this one, but I'm curious to know if that will work.

Yeah I wrote the issue on the Ultimate Droid Facebook page, maybe there is a slight fix file when can install that will fix the issue, im with you, I like the stock theme as well...
 
Just loaded 2.3 and right off the bat don't see anything different... and what's this about gestures?... just wondering before I go snooping...

it's a pretty cool feature under input settings. you record gestures for any activity such as opening apps, direct dials, direct texts, maps etc, and from the lockscreen you can just make the gesture and the activity will load.

for example, you can draw a "U" and itll unlock your phone. Then you can remove the sliders at the bottom (also under input settings) and the only way to unlock it is to draw the "U"
