Good to see you again. I was wonderin... Glad you got a chance to check out Hybrid v2.0. Let me know how it holds up over the long haul. Thanks for commenting on the dialer too!

Indagroove, over at MUI, has been working on moving the RSS feed bar to the top of the home page and giving us 3x3 quicklinks on the home page in landscape 2018.

What do you guys think? RSS feed where it is, or on top?

If you do and you've not found it for yourself yet, here you go!

Thanks for posting this - do you know how to change the brightness of th background, or add a drop shadow to the words? My start menu background is pretty bright in some places and the words disappear.

I don't off of the top of my head. I can look around for you, but it won't be for a couple of days. Long work days ahead. If you find it for yourself, let me know how to do it. That'd be cool.

Oh... Sharkie and the SHARKIANS!


DON'T REALLY KNOW THAT MUCH ABOUT PAGE POOL... BUT I'VE BEEN RUNNING HYBRID ALL DAY TRYING TO ALL I CAN TO FULL UP MY MEMERY ( still holding, the lowest I seen 74k) AND i watched NINJA ASSASSINS TODAY AT WORK OFF THE INERNET. PLAYED WITH NO PROBLEM, HAD TO LET IN BUFFER A LIL BIT BUT ANY WAY BACK TO MY POINT... LOL

I THINK EVERY BODY SHOULD TASK 29, CHANGE PAGE POOL/ 12, HARD RESET, LET YOUR XDA_UC RUN, DONT SOFT RESET JUST YET... PRESS NO... DO YOUR PROVISIONS OR CABS... AND I DON'T THINK Y'ALL WILL HAVE NO PROBLEMS WITH ANYTHING THATS NOT A REALLY BIG PROBLEM THAT WE AS THE USERS CAN'T FIX ARE SELFS. SOOO... ON THAT NOTE THANKS FOR SHOWING ME HOW TO PAGE POOL ( I don't think theres nothing I haven't done beside do my on ROM) SHARKIE... YOU ALRIGHT WITH ME, BRO

The start menu text is controlled by the following two files in your \\Windows directory:

StartMenu_GridScene_480x800.cpr (Portrait)
StartMenu_GridScene_800x480.cpr (Landscape)

You can change the color of the text, as well as any "highlight" around them. You can edit the files with Notepad (don't use MS Word or Wordpad as they tend to add extra formatting to the file). I don't remember exactly which values to change, but there's only a few color codes in there (it's a very small file) so it shouldn't be too hard.

I have my start menu text set to (almost) black, with a gray "glow" so that it shows up nice on the GTX theme.

Glad to hear that changing the pagepool worked out!!! I'm gonna do that as soon as Sharkie drops the next 6.5.x ROM!

Would like to see the RSS either on top or all the way on bottom instead of quicklinks. Screen is starting to look cramped. I had to remove quicklinks from top line in order to save some chaos. Thanks to a couple mods and your kick arse ROM. I have this beauty =D>

Sharkie,

will you be updating 6.5 some time soon too?

It is a great build except the memory issue.

Thank you very much!

[Sharkie405]

That looks hot! The thread I was talking about is HERE. In post 2 he says there are .cabs. I've not checked any of it out yet. Let me know if any of you try any of the mods from that thread. If you want to use any of the files instead of the .cab, you'd probably just have to install them into Windows. If you guys try it, post some screenies!

I will, but the memory thing is what's taking so long. It's a lot to learn and long processes to test. I may upload a new version of each ROM this weekend with some of the other little fixes in it while I continue to work on the memory side of things.

I suspect it varies by phone, or batch of phones within a model, but I did a bit of testing and found that my best pagepool size is 10.5 (I know; odd) and 0 has been the worst after 3 to 4 days. This held true when overclocking to 710 as well (not that OC would effect pagepooling, but it was worth mentioning). Also my wifes TP2, that was purchased 4 months after mine, is best at 13.4 - so if you don't want to be any testing it looks like 12 is a safe bet. But I suggest testing to find out for yourself.

just my 1.2 cents
