Guest tigris666 Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Can someone clear up the expresso v espresso mod confusion for me please? My understanding based on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=755026 ExpressoBar is the mod that gives you the black bar at the bottom of the screen, as opposed to the curved HTC one. Am I correct in thinking this modifies rosie.apk, and may not work with Paul's options in the kitchen? EspressoMod (note the Es not Ex) is a collection of various mods, including the above as well as other nice ones like circle battery etc. One confusing thing for me is, the link above states that EspressoMod (the collection) includes BlackEspressoMod, which I can't find anything about? Lastly, I know you can flash all these .zip mods on using the ROM manager. I've not given it a crack yet, is there an easy "undo" if it overwrites system files and you don't like the "mod"? And am I right in thinking that if you can flash them on with ROM manager, then you can also bake it to Paul's kitchen using his custom zip uploader? sorry for tldr, pretty new to all this, but slowly getting there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EddyOS Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 ExpressonBar is a clear bar for the bottom - I want just this mod as it looks a lot better than the sense bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just not sure how it integrates with Paul's version of rosie.apk, especially on froyo, so YMMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EddyOS Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 I'm on XDA, been there for months from my HD2 days and now in the Desire forum (same username as here)...I know it's there just don't know if anyone tried it with an MCR r8 ROM yet (it seems you get other silly mods like crappy circle battery, etc) or is that the EspressoMod? And yeah, n was a typo!! :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tommo123 Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 well, i'm using r8 rc1 from here and the espresso mod (flat bar at the bottom) works great :huh: i prefer it to the curved one by far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EddyOS Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 You got just the bottom bar or other mods? If just the bar, can you post a link? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest miguelsanchez79 Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 (edited) Which one is just the drop down? I think the one called Dr.droid-original batteryicon.zip (2.56 MB, 32 views) but Im not sure. Nandroid just in case so you can revert anytime. I went for Dr.Droid version 2.3-THE BEST.zip (coloured icons) bear in mind these mods might wipe your APN settings.

Guest Chung83 Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 i was wondering, if i dont like it after a while and want to revert it to the original theme is there another way to do it apart from nandroid or reinstalling rom? I assume if i reinstall the rom, a titanium backup wouldnt revert the mods am i right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CaspaTheGhost Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Nope, titanium will restore settings and apps... the mods are framework based so only way would be make a nandroid with them on or just flash the zip again...
