Clean-up Scripts
-Remove ADW Launcher

su
sysrw
rm /system/app/Launcher.apk
sync
sysro

su
sysrw
rm /system/app/Launcher2.apk
sync
sysro

su
sysrw
rm /system/app/Mms.apk
mv /system/app/Mms.bak /system/app/Mms.apk
sync
sysro

OPTIONAL Mods
-Default Droid Fonts
Install just like you would any other .zip file (with either Clockwork or SPR). No wipes necessary (or suggested!)

-Stock Nexus LWP
Place file on SDCard and run the following

su
switchlwp

-Themed LauncherPro 0.3.0
Install as you would any .apk. If you have LauncherPro already installed, you must uninstall first.

-NexTheme Wallpapers
Put em on your SD card, set them by choosing wallpapers, from gallery...you know the drill

Suggestions
-Do a PRL update *22899 or *228 option 2
-SetCPU (available in market)
-Android Terminal Emulator (free in market, this name, not the other one)
-Change transitions and window animations to 'fast' using Spare Parts
-Before you decide on which launcher to make default, go into the other one and delete everything off the desktop
-If you're using ADW Launcher, follow the suggested settings below for super quickness!
-If you're looking for another launcher, LauncherPro from the market is also great! Themed version also available!
-Report your bugs/success here!
-Follow me on Twitter! (I can get back to you more quickly that way)

ADW Configuration Suggestions
I personally use these settings, and have found them to result in a zippy home screen:
-Screen Preferences: Uncheck orientation sensor, turn scrolling speed and overshoot to 0
-Drawer Settings: Turn off new drawer, animated drawer. Columns to 5 in portrait, 6 in landscape.

BUGS
-If you are using a notification tone from your sdcard, please disable 'SD notification', as it may cause a reboot loop when trying to access the sound file before the card is mounted
-Virtual keyboard on homescreen w/ LWP causes a freeze

Enjoy!

How to install custom kernels:

[Fabolous]

If this is the wrong section to post this, let me know.

I usually post at another forum (many of you may know me from there)

[samiusmc]

How were you able to get the battery percentage to display in the battery? Is there a file I can use just to install that feature, like a metamorph theme or something?

[Fabolous]

Sorry, they are hard coded into the actual images. This is a makeshift way of actually getting the feature (but does not allow it to be turned off via spare parts).

It also only shows 100, 80, 60, 40, 20, and 10 levels.

If you want, I can zip those files up, and you can push them into your framework-res file, though it will not match unless you have NexTheme already.


here are the images. you need to push them into framework-res.apk in the res/drawable-hdpi folder.

So far...'Smokin'!!... running cool and quick... will let you know about the Batt life tomorrow./

[MasterP]

Yo Fab, running 1.0. This an update or full install?

[Mbk]

It's a full ROM...so you'd need to wipe first, and backup if you don't have a Nandroid of current ROM
