which one is the link for v4 persona red ? i'm a bit confused with all these versions :D

is it the metamorph fix that also applies persona red theme?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
same as v3..btw im not install dalvik-cache to sd..i only hv app and lost&found folder only,
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
You need to apply v4 rom and all patches which is radio fix and swap fix,.only skip for metamorph fix patch
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Knoedelkopf:
1. install v4 rom

2. apply radio & swap fix

3. apply galaxyXT theme

like this?

without applying metamorph fix

ehm I recognize that v4 rom isn't just an update.. so we have to copy the v4 folder to nandroid/openrecovery/ and restore v4?

and is a factory reset needed after installing v4 ???
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fwals:
That dalvik-cache can not sd-ext?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Knoedelkopf:
hm my theme is still red... i exactly did the 3 steps from my last post..

what did I do wrong?

wow i just scared because of the new boot animation :D:D
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ghostboy:
Finally I use andrioni OR delete the Launcher.apk and TodayBriefingWidget.apk, and then reinstall the theme (also exclude these two apps), it' ok now.

P.S. The battery icon is different from your screen capture.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Onesimus:
Just a comment. I've tried using the Dexter rom and this V4 rom and I like the V4 rom as it's pretty stable.

Just wondering what's the usual battery life as I noticed that the gauge seems to be inaccurate and it drains pretty fast and a reboot and the battery power would shoot back up again.

Should I install SetCPU to prolong the battery usage?

Any tweaks that would extend the battery usage? I'm all ears..

Thanks..

Bit confused... I want to install Khal's new theme. Currently running V4 Rom (PersonaVred) without any metamorph patch or any updates. Do I install the metamorph patch and the other updates and put the galaxyxt theme on somehow like that through metamorph (how?) or do I just put on the other updates and install the theme like I would any update, by just putting the zip in my sd card and applying update through nandroid?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
If you are running the PersonaRed ROM without any of the updates, from what I've read, you would copy the zip file to /sdcard/openrecovery/updates & apply it just like any other update.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
Actually I'm .tested the battery icon with metamorph.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mintaeroboy:
whats the weather/clock widget ?

Also do you apply the update over the old theme?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Knoedelkopf:
my theme doesn't look like yours so far, khal..???

that's exactly what I did , what am I doing wrong?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] syrenz:
Taken from the new LG phones.

@Khal: Is it possible to somehow incorporate lockscreen controls for MIUI Player (or the new leaked google music player)? Like nothing special, just some simple play controls that pop up on the default lockscreen under the clock when the music is playing. Is it hypothetically possible?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Knoedelkopf:
ehm when I boot my phone.. there is shown "DROID" for a split second every 5 seconds ... :confused:

and it keeps doing that all the time.. bootloop?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ronnbon:
I applied the galaxyxt update- now I have a mixture of red and blue :D- the market is blue and the keypad of the dialer is still red... And settings are also still red... anybody else with this problem?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] TyrionWarMage:
bootloop - Use RSDlite to apply a clean SBF and start over
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Knoedelkopf:
yes, I reflashed 2.1 and then rooted, installed OpenRecovery and restored my backup of khal's rom

but I tried everything.. my theme is still red. i applied the v4galaxyxt theme , nothing changed
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Knoedelkopf:
haha mine is totally reversed.. settings and keyboard ist blue, market is red.:p

and still the bug that the boxes in the market are completely empty / white.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Did you delete your bootanimation.zip? If you can get into Open Recovery (pull battery, hold volume up while powering on), you should be able to restore a system.img nandroid.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Knoedelkopf:
no i didn't.

i did exactly the same like this guy

how to get into openrecovery? when I hold volume up while powering on the phone is booting normally.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] nhc:
Where do I put the files in?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] nhc:
if its wifi prob, try BLADE WIFI FIX or FXR WIFI FIX from market. Hope it helps....
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
Boot animations go in /system/media, you should see a bootanimation.zip file already there.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] reverendkjr:
I have noticed a few problems as well. Not wifi, only 3G. When I try to browse to a website, it hangs. It eventually connects but it's almost as if its having a hard time resolving to the DNS server or something. I know that there has been a few recent tweaks done with network connections. Any possibility this might be the problem here?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Hahutzy:
So just use OpenRecovery to flash this and I'm good to go right? Like how xavwanted updates his roms?

EDIT: Successfully switched from xavwanted to khalpowers

Question: I have a ext3 partition on my SD Card.

I use root explorer

Goto root

Goto sd-ext folder

Mount r/w

Make new folders "app" and "dalvik-cache"

Reboot

Apps and cache do not move over to SD Card?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] SilverKeiser:
The link, http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9404058/V3update.zip to the V3 update seems to be broken... Any suggestions on where to get it? Thanks

Touchscreen Issue

Hello,

I applied the V4 Persona Red with the metamorph update, but for some reason now my touchscreen won't work. It is a giant column that lines up with the home button that doesn't work from the top of the phone to the home button.

Has anyone had this problem? I reverted back to V3 and Dexter's rom, but the problem still persists.

Is there anything I can do outside of replacing the Digitizer?

Thank you,

lilhugo

P.S. I did clear dalvik cache, cache partition, wiped data, and it did not help.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
My ntwork working fine .btw You can try this build prop http://db.tt/jxY3a4w without network tweak..copy to /system and reboot..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
Try again..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
if you create "app" and "dalvik-cache" then your app and cache shud move over to sd...anyway the best is just leave dalvik cache in data..bcoz memhack already move the dalvik cache to /data.No need to move dalvik cache to sd. Just create the "app" folder only,

Anyway if using link2sd then you can also move dalvik cache to sd-ext. some of guys here apply link2sd and working fine with this rom.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Hahutzy:
I have tried multiple times. Every time after reboot, my "app" folder is gone in sd-ext
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
u migrate from xwanted without format and re-create the ext3 partion??..try do from scratch..shud be fine ...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Hahutzy:
Shouldn't be a problem, I carried over my ext3 partition from Apps2SD in 2.1 to xavwanted rom in the first place.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] khalpowers:
sorry to say you need to reformat back your sd ..otherwise they cannot detect your ext3..
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] :
khalpowers. thanks a million for your work, the rom is working great, its fast, smooth, looks awesome; on a side note the FM volume fix is working but I have a small issue with the volume levels. if i where to use numbers for the intensity of the volume it would go like 0 20 25 30 and so on. a comfortable listening volume is 15 (for me at least). is this issue limited to me? anyways. i love the rom thanks a million
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] krishn:
Hi Khalpowers

I tried both your PersonaredV4 and V4 rom GalaxyXT version. PersonaredV4 works fine but after installing the update's my data connectivity which is Edge does not work. Similarly the new V4 rom GalaxyXT version. also does connect to Edge and It show's not data connectivity. Please help me out :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
Which carrier are you on?, you will have to input put the settings manually......
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Hahutzy:
its ok ur rom has enough internal memory that I don't need apps2sd

another thing that troubles me is that my battery % in the notification bar doesn't seem to be updating properly. inside settings > phone status, it says I have 90%, but on my notification bar its still showing 100%

edit: it is updating, just not reporting same numbers as settings > phone status
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] krishn:
Hey

Doesn't KhalPower's V4 rom have compass working?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] krishn:
I use It in India. Well Magically sometime back It started working and now It's act's like, It has a brain of its own. Most of the time It does not work. I tried with the carrier and my settings are perfect I've run Dexter's rom to check for the setting's too and all are the same. What should I do ? :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Zachary57:
Hello,

Can you do something to control GPS by menu with WIFI and AUDIO ?

Version 3 and 4 too glitchy

I loaded roms 3 and 4 and had no luck with either. Phone was way to glitchy. Certain things like the download button on the marketplace werent visible, but could still be pressed. Apps would close on their own. couldn't get the media gallery to stay open long enough to look at my photos.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Riley600:
Is it possible to get the stock market and Gmail app for V4? I've tried to install the stock gmail app but it gives me an error. Otherwise, ROM is great - very speedy! Thanks! :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Niephasus:
Perfect! Moment I saw this, I restored a clean 2.1 stock rom, unpackaged my new class 10 microSD, created the proper partitions. After which installation of this rom was painless.

ext3 partition is running apps effectively, I can reboot over and over without any bootloops, the gui elements seem to be in order (no offense but galaxyXT looks sooo much better then personaRed).

Haven't tested the fjfalcon kernel swap yet, there is a swap partition for it for when I do. Anyone have any experience with this, is it worth it?

Once again, thanks for the mighty fine work khalpowers. Oh and a shout out to reverendkjr for excellent videos to assist me in all this!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Maybe you have to delete the modified apk's first because the signing keys don't match. Another way might be to download the CM6 gapps update and apply it in OR.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Riley600:
Nevermind! Fixed it, thanks! :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ktylife:
Can anyone confirm that I can safely installed the latest GalaxyXT v4 ROM on top of [ Dexter's v1.3 + Mioze7Ae's stock221v13-bugfix-3 ] ?

Thanks... :D
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ktylife:
Ok fine, it works so far.

Comments:

* I don't have miui.adw launcher, just the standard adw, normal ?

* I hardly get more than 37MB of free RAM after reboot ?! (How can I prevent some services to start ? News, etc)

* using the standard calendar widget, the police is WHITE and the backroung is very light GREY: unreadable !

* Corporate contacts does not work (email does)

* Camera is still a disaster, delay between shutter button and actual picture being taken makes it hardly usable. Generate 5s lag after exiting the program (RAM too low forcing swap ?!)

* General issue with Google Maps >5.1.0 ; not smooth, generate 5s lag after exiting the program (RAM too low forcing swap ?!).
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ktylife:
Damn ! After first reboot I am stuck at carrier in boot-loop mode...

I updated a couple of software from the market and I suspect Milestone Overclock to be the issue; I boot fine without the SD-Card !

Any idea/help ? Thanks !

Edit: wyping one more time Dalvik and Cache solve it...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ktylife:
Well not... :mad:

For some reason I lost half of my program that were originally on the ext3 partition of my SD-Card; it was fine before...

I reinstalled from Market, hoping for an isolated and unique problem.

I am a bit confused as why I still see my CPU overclocked to 1GHz (in SetCPU) without Milestone Overclock installed !

On the non-stock programs that eat a bit the RAM I have: Swype, SetCPU and OpenRecovery. After reboot I kill the following services: News, OpenRecovery, Gmap localizator and ... cant remember the last one.

I never saw ~70MB free...

Besides that, it *is* indeed rather smooth and fast... I will test more in real case and report.

Please tell me how to fix the Calendar widget police being "White"...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] krishn:
Doesn't KhalPower's V4 rom have compass working?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] reverendkjr:
Sounds to me like your SD card may be "goofy". try reformatting/partitioning it and see if that helps. I had similar problems with an old card and replaced it to resolve.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
For whatever reason, I've found that OpenRecovery.apk likes to restart itself and run in the background as a service. IMHO OpenRecovery.apk isn't needed at all on the customized ROMs now that we can boot into OpenRecovery from the power menu. It's nice as a shortcut for installing the OpenRecovery bootstrap on a stock Motorola ROM, but the custom ROMs already include the bootstraps. On my phone, I deleted /system/app/OpenRecovery.apk weeks ago without ill effect.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Dexter's ROMs (and its derivatives) include overclock functionality. Do you have an /sdcard/oc-settings file? The ROM will automatically apply that at boot.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
Same here. I remove the OpenRecovery.apk (and others) whenever I flash a new ROM.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] sarah a. marvin:
Where did you place the galaxyXT? i placed it in the directory of recovery-updates, but no change when i restore the nandroid. pls. help me with the step by step procedure to install galaxyXT. thanks
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
If you downloaded the full nandroid (100+MB) you need to unrar it on your PC & plce the folder that contains boot.img, boot.md5, system.img & system.md5 in the nandroid/openrecovery folder & then nandroid >> restore all. Wipe the dalvik & cache partitions & depending on what your running now you may have to wipe data/factory reset.

radio volume

the radio volume is wayyyyyy to loud. even on the lowest volume setting its too loud. Anyone else with this problem..is there a fix for this#?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
It's the same for me. I'm working on a different fix for the volume problem, but I'm pretty busy this week and next so I've sort of put it on the backburner waiting to see if Cincinnati Bell will fix it for us ;)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mrmako777:
hey guys, its been a while since ive played with this phone and the announcement from cbw has peaked my interest in tinkering with this phone again. so i dont have to read thru 11 pages of this thread is it safe to say that i can follow this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1038233 and everything will be good to go? i have a buddy who wants to buy this phone from me but with froyo im sure its a whole new animal and i might have to rethink getting rid of it :D

also, im not interested in using ext partitions, just the basic app2sd from froyo. is it safe to assume this works properly in this build? thanks guys!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
If you download the galaxyxt themed version of the v4 rom I think there is no need for any updates. Froyo's native apps2sd should work fine.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ktylife:
On the RAM side, I can live with it I think; I have around 55-60MB according to the "Running Services" info page.

On the ROM/Flash side though, I have only 44MB of "Internal phone storage" :confused:

Where should I be looking into to see where I am loosing so much space (compared to the 170+ advertised ;) ). I do have some application installed, but not worth 130MB !

Last point; Any idea how to change font color for the standard calendar widget ?? (It's white on whitish background !!) :(
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] sarah a. marvin:
thanks a lot.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Niephasus:
He's got the point, if you have any further difficulties I would not mind going into greater detail of exactly what I did.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Niephasus:
With an ext3 partition diverting all my apps to my SD Card I achieve 150MB internal storage.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ktylife:
@Niephasus: Using what ? Link2SD ? Could it be that my partition is not properly recognized/mounted ? Where can I find a log for this ?

I am a bit reluctant to use Link2SD because it *really* slowed down my phone... Maybe due to my Class4 SDcard...

Edit: My /sd-ext folder is empty... is that where should be my partition ? Damn, I am lost :)

Edit2: app2ext is an addon and/or needs to be installed ?

Edit3: app2ext is app2sd apparently :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mediaon:
i'll tell you how i fixed..create new folder in sd-ext and name it app with Root Explorer..then reboot your phone ...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Niephasus:
Spot on, for app2ext to kick in you need an app folder in your sd-ext folder. You can either do it with Root Explorer or use your linux client to access the ext partition and add one.

When you reboot your phone all your non integrated rom apps will find their way in that folder. You can verify this is so by using root explorer to look in your sd-ext/app folder.

apps and games Galaxy XTV4

I have found that a couple of my old Apps (Appsinstaller for one) will not run on this rom. I cannot comment on the games because I never play them.

Question: Where is the battery monitor on this rom? I thought that it might be those dots on top of the Whirlpool on the homescreen but apparently not. I use Battery Indicator Pro which is pretty good so it is not really important but I was wondering if there is one that comes with the rom... :rolleyes:
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] SilverKeiser:

wi-fi issue

Well i have a wi-fi and market app issue. i just turn on the wi-fi, open the android market, download some app or update another one and after that i can't download nothing moore, after that i open a browser (just for see if i have internet) and o can't open any page. After that i have to turn off my wi-fi an then turn on, go to android market and now i can go on, but it's so anoying have to turn off - turn on everry time when use the android market. Some times when i downloading an app and the screen tunr off the downloading stops and i have to turn off- turn on the wi fi and keep the screen on all time.

Anyone that have the same problem or any suggestion?

Thanks to all

2 quick questions: is it a known issue that the bottom button lights dont work? also, lets say i want to perform a clean install (reformat and reinstall v4) can i just do the nandroid restore option? thanks!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] SilverKeiser:
Connectivity

re: WiFi... I connected to my home network and downloaded a couple of apps with no problems. I switched it off and it reconnected to the carrier's Edge service right away... I also tried the FM radio and it scanned and picked up a few stations without a problem. The volume level may be a bit high but it is undistorted and usable.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] 3rdstring:
For the bottom LEDs if you cycle through brightness levels or turn the screen off & on they generally work (though I haven't tried Kahhl's latest v4 ROM yet). You should be able to try any of the ROMS by restoring the chosen nandroid image.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Yes (they do work, but they seem more sensitive to ambient light than they were in 2.1) and yes (followed by "wipe data and cache" in the top open recovery menu).
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mrmako777:
You guys rock :) thanks
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
So I've been testing for a bit and noticed that with Swap enabled the phone requires a higher Vsel setting than without swap kernel implemented...

Increasing the Vsel setting has stoped the freeze ups i was having seems nice and stable at 1000Mhz @ 74Vsel any lower and using battery intensive apps like GPS nav will cause the phone to lock up...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hellmonger:
This is probly due to the rw on the sdcard.... swap needs to be internal like using the left over 150mb app data storage is that posible? to partition the internal storage?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ktylife:
Finally I got the app2ext working; I had to reformat my ext2 partition to ext3 and create that "app" folder. ~90MB free (don't know how you can get to 170 !).

I have used Link2sd to move additional program that app2ext don't seem to want to move

The wifi / market issue I had with the stock 2.1 ROM ! It is related to your gmail/gtalk account.. try to make a clean setup of these accounts.

I am running stable at 1Ghz@54Vsel ... (Not sure if swap is enable... how do you do that ?! :D )

Feel free to comment using the number as reference ;-)
