[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Eclypz:
For those that haven't pulled the trigger yet:

I flashed this and the corresponding radio on my Bell Desire Z.

Battery life went down the crapper on the first day with a life of 8hrs. On second day, I'm seeing a huge improvement - The second day isn't over yet, but I'll update later.

The UI seems smooth but I'm seeing very poor performance in games. Playing Gunbros has a noticeable frame rate decrease compared to Virtuous 1.01 on stock HTC kernel and .17 radio - My best Quadrant score of 12,224 also confirms this.

Most people wouldn't be able to tell the difference between Froyo Sense and Gingerbread Sense, but here are some of the changes that caught my eye:

- New notification icons

- App tray scrolls by page now (i.e. flick up to go down one page)

- No gingerbread screen off animation

- No Gingerbread system tray icons (replaced by usual Sense battery/wifi/3G icons)

- Auto screen brightness seems to be "more active" in varying the brightness as you're using it.

- Headphone volume seems to be lower? (or I'm losing my hearing)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vlad83:
Don't look at bench scores yet. This is a test version and the drivers needed to be rewritten for GB which what presumably what HTC is testing.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SN4K3B1T3:
All this arguing for what he was talking about SENSE 3.0 not Android 3.0..sense versions aren't the same

sent from my SENSEitized GingerZed
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vlad83:
You're right, he was initially... However this statement "...google says the reason the source code hasn't been released is they arent comfortable with anything not a highend tab for the time being...never said anything about never. Not to mention the honeycomb port that is already available. Sure it has no phone app etc etc etc..." clearly refers to Android, not Sense. As I am sure you're aware, Sense is a proprietary UI laid out on top of Android...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] echizen:
dont know if its a bug but.. tab buttom in irssi connectbot dont work anymore.. anyone have the same issue?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmk40:
Is the only problem with Pershoot's GB kernel wifi? If so, I can fix it.

If someone is willing to run through everything with his kernel, including video recording, playback, etc and let me know what works/doesn't, I can look at adapting it to work with Sense.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s0epkip:
Also:

- quick settings in the status bar (nice!)

- app categories in the app drawer (frequently used / downloaded / all)

- the nice GB battery graph (+use info)

"Issues":

- No landscape launcher without keyboard flipped out

- No Trackpad wake (and no way to add it yet..)

- For me: slow launcher at times, when waking phone or pressing home

- No OC kernel...yet (since we're on 35.x now)

What do you reckon is the best way to get a batter percentage indicator in the status bar, ala CM7? (What app?)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AllWin:
I know :D Just i don't like it very much, so i called it a bug :D This is why i said HTC isn't going to fix that.

Using Pershoots kernel, things broken:

Camcorder

Camera

WiFi.

As far as I can tell Bluetooth works.

Camera/Camcorder/Wifi doesn't work.

As far as I can tell, bluetooth does work, and everything else seems good.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] toddsk:
Another issue i see(didn't see any mention of it) is the www/.com key is inoperative
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BlackElvis79:
Strange. I also flashed the test build and I flashed without issue. It did change my hboot but left it S-OFF, and when I ran gfree_verify to check I still had superCID, simunlock, etc. It also removed custom recovery but the rom itself ran just fine. What did you do exactly?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cesarbric:
I can say the same on my side, everything works except for the above.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
If you are perchance referring to my scripts it will certainly not work, since they merely renames a file (that enables tp wake) to something else to disable tp wake. Then to REenable tp wake, it names it back. So tp wake must already exist in the ROM in that form, in that location.

Unfortunately that basically means the scripts only work on Froyo Virtuous.

But then again, perhaps you tried something else ;)

you cant change kernels, only the stock kernel included has the new gpu drivers. if your going to use this rom give up overclocking.

The Rom is pretty cool and stable.

Anyone know how to get MMS working on Tmobile. APN included works great for the internet but the pictures are really small. I think 300kb max.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Supovitz:
Uhh I did change kernels, to great effect... Whats the problem with doing so? It seems to be working pretty good actually after I realized I installed an old version and updated.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] C.Flat:
That's because the Desire Z doesn't have dedicated www and .com keys

I am staying with this room really like it just would like to oc :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] havocnl:
You will either have to wait untill someone ports a kernel to the G2. you could also write a letter to HTC (or better just drop by at their main office) and demand the sourcecode to this test kernel ;-)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dalisophiri:
Is there a kernel that works with this rom that doesnt break anything...or a making in progress for this ROM....TEST OR not am most likely sticking to this rom...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] YOSEFE:
I have also decided to stick with this one. Last night I restored all the apps I had backed up, thanks to Titanium.

I tried the 2.0 at irc freenode, decided to come back to this one. Like you I stick for now!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] codf4ther:
There are no third party sense kernels available right now that work on Gingerbread. HTC has only released Gingerbread kernel source code for the Incredible S and Desire S (just today) kernels so far, nothing for the Desire Z. Someone could in theory port the Desire S kernel and add our drivers and hacks, but it hasn't been done yet. Watch the development thread for a kernel that has 2.6.35.XX in the title.

Wanted to try the new amazon cloud drive but I am automatically getting the UK version of the AmazonMP3 app. Is there a way to install the US version?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] keinengel:
It's a European WWE ROM, so I'm guessing you can't pick English (US) as your locale. You could try getting the APK from another phone and installing it, but it's probably the same thing.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] j0sh12:
You can install MoreLocale 2 from the market and choose en US locale to access the US market.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dalisophiri:
I dont know y this didnt click earlier....and i dont know if its a good idea to keep ur cpu frequecny locked....for the sake of performance on this rom,just use setcpu and lock ur Z to 800Mhz

Screen on profile...performance Gov @ 8ooMhz

Screen off profile...any battery saving Gov @246Mhz

....during calls i use ...ondemand min246Mhz n max806Mhz

I gurantee u better performance on GB stock kernel

Its also safe to use battery mod from siulmagics desire s port which also includes the green overscroll effect

Experimental....also flashed the rotating Rosie from his thread to give me smaller fonts in menus like the settings menu
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
i forgot about disabling perflock with Setcpu.. Thanks. and ill flash those mods. Would love to have that damned green overscroll. Battery mod, ehh not so much. :/

EDIT: cant disable perflock with Setcpu since it needs to be updated to work with this new kernel. and that mod from Siulmagic's desire s Port did ABSOLUTELY nothing for my rom. didn't add battery percentage nor the green overscroll.

EDIT: 2 Have to manually reboot into recovery then flash the framework in order for it to work. first two attempts i just went to install from SDCARD using ROM manager app itself and it wouldn't work. Hmm.. might start installing everything manually in recovery now.. working fine though. I like this framework. Cool little check sign under the hsdpa sign lol.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dalisophiri:
Sorry...i forgot to mention the fine details...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s0epkip:
I got the battery-percentage mod working, but rotating rosie doesn't seem to have changed anything... do you get rotating launcher without expanding the keyboard?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dalisophiri:
It doesn't,you still need to slide out for that...pulled the CM spareparts apk and it changes font size in non-sense apps...also added DSP Manager from CM7 for more bass. The same goes for The CMwallpaper apk....

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] g4rb4g3:
I've made a mod like THIS to use the "customize" button for any app you want.

You'll need THIS and the attached Rosie.apk

Install LaunchKey before pushing Rosie.apk to your phone.

adb remount
adb shell stop
adb push Rosie.apk /system/app/
adb shell start

choose any app you want in LaunchKey. If you press the "customize" button it will launch that app.

Can I use this kernel to overclock this rom?

Or there is no way yet?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] faux123:
There are currently NO TRUE GB Kernel (2.6.35+) released for Ace/Vision/Glacier from HTC. You can install the hacked Froyo kernel (2.6.32) from pershoot/flippy/etc but you will run into weird bugs and compatibility issues. Just stay with the default kernel, it is a true GB kernel and it has 100% compatibility with this ROM.

Consider you guys lucky with this leaked release, for Glacier, we don't have anything like this, we have only 1/2 assed ports or port of a port, which have many compatibility issues and weird bugs.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Gooler:
Thanks for your mod, I've hacked it to add the browser icon to the Slate skin, if anyone wants it it's here:

Install LaunchKey first, then g4rb4g3 Rosie.apk then the modified Slate theme

adb push Slate.apk /system/app/

Remember to backup your previous Slate.apk in case you want the original back

Just curious - with the Desire Z getting this test build, does that mean that the Sense 3.0 UI won't be officially released for our phones? Keeping in mind that the brand new Desire S is also getting Sense 2.3 as well...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
Am Sure the update will come...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] havocnl:
The Desire S and the Incredible S (etc) have the Sense 2.something right now. Which a newer version of the sense we know.

Starting with the HTC Sensation they have introduced the Sense 3.0 which probably needs a dual core to function properly. Seeing that it was introduced with the Sensation and has a lot of new eye candy (read cpu/gpu load)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] keinengel:
HTC have confirmed that only the newer devices will get Sense 3.0. See http://twitter.com/#!/htc/status/58287330590601216
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Innocent Devil:
Is it possible to backport the 3.0 ROM ?, bcoz Sensation rom is already out ther in Desire forum The Sensation ROM
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] skulk3r:
Unless we have a team dedicated enough to resize the graphics and fix Sense 3.0 from qHD to WVGA screens, we won't see the new Sense on our screens. Unfortunately, we're shafted only after 6 months of owning our phones. I guess the G2/DZ didn't turn out to be quite the dev phone everybody was talking about!

Having said that - I'm sure some brave souls will try to port it over to WVGA, since we'll have devs from the Nexus One, Nexus S, Desire, Desire HD, Desire Z, Galaxy S, Evo, etc, etc who will all be getting requests to get Sense 3.0! So if they all work together...well...who knows?

Plus:

"@htc

HTC

Clarification: aspects of the latest HTC Sense won’t work on some previous devices. We are working to incorporate other aspects that will"

So maybe we'll get some cool things like the new lockscreen (which may actually be useful now)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] maus010:
Wow.........this ROM works great!!

Ok, overclocking does not work on this kernel but who cares.

This ROM is fast even without overclocking! Battery life has improved big time.

With the previous ROM (1.82) I had a problem viewing movies made by the camcorder and youtube movies. Problem solved with this ROM.

Minor isseu: Gscript doesn't work, so no TP-wake :(

Thanks RMK! :D

What is up ppl I just want ur opinion in what's the best kernel for the rom ellite 3 and im new in this but can u tell me also how to put then toooo
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Finding the best kernel is trial and error, at best. Everyone's device reacts differently, and the only way to find out is by flashing some different kernels, and seeing how your device runs with it. I have great luck with netarchy's kernel's, found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=719763.

Also, give Ziggy's a try. www.ziggy471.com

To install a kernel, download it, and place it on the main directory of your sd card. Boot into recovery. I suggest creating a nandroid backup of your working system, in case you have problems with the new kernel, you can restore back to a working setup. Once you make you're backup, wipe the cache, and dalvik cache, using your recovery. You then select 'flash zip from sd card', and then select your kernel. Allow it to flash, then reboot when done. The first reboot after wiping cache and dalvik cache can take twice as long as normal, be patient. Give the new kernel a few days to settle in and test, before you pass judgement on it. Good luck.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayharper08:

Wireless tether won't work with the gingerbread roms. You need to use barnacle tether or the native hotspot. And to fix your wifi, just reboot and it'll be fine. Anytime you run the wireless tether app it'll mess up your wifi, and you have to reboot to fix it.

I am the owner of Cross Industries. I currently run Glacier Host (glacierhosting.com)

Currently, I've seen a lot of developers who have no space to upload their roms. So, to help, I'm offering free hosting to developers who need it. I've got 2 dedicated servers in different locations. If you are interested, feel free to contact me or post below.

This offer is only available to developers, as I am going to allow over 1GB of disk space, and plenty of bandwidth, for them alone.

If you want free hosting for yourself, you can check out Glacier Host for yourself.

Hello guys, firts of all sorry for my bad english...

I'm from buenos aires Argentina, and tomorrow i'll pick a new phone.

ATM i have 2 options.

HTC Inspire 4G or Motorola Atrix 4G.

Atrix unlocked 999 USD.

Inspire 1079 USD.

So, what phone u think is better about the price? and also i have a few questions about HTC.

What is S-OFF

What is ENG-OFF

What is Goldkey? is really necesary?

The phone is already unlocked, so i just need root and flash any rom with CWM? easy like that?

Atm i've a Samsung Captivate, so i dont know what is the better chose, Atrix or Inspire, cos Inspire is pretty much the same hardware than the Captivate.

Also, i dont have any skill's with ADB. i suck with that.
