Please start a thread in the themes section as when these guys are talking about bootloops I don't know if they are talking to you or me? Thanks after all this is a rom thread not a theme thread yeah?

Shokouhi

For those who boot looped if you were talking to me I am not sure what to say? I mean I test everything before upload is complete. Your not fully specific in your post either guys. I have classes tomorrow so I will not be around for a bit but enjoy the rom and 2.0 next week sometime.

Shokouhi
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Ramsfan_Jim:
OK, restoring now. Any idea what caused this?

fdxgnd - are you sorted?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Ramsfan_Jim:
Is the ROM designed for flashing using clockwork? I notice there was a new version of clockwork this weekend - could it be incompatible?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fdxgnd:
I just did a battery pull and went back to my other rom. Tried twice and same thing. Not sure.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
Oh I see now. I am not sure. I still run 2.5.x recovery. I do not really upgrade my recovery as I still test and build for Froyo as well. With 2.5.x it works with the Froyo and Gingerbread builds for me. So I am not sure. Sorry guys I am doing what I can. Good luck with getting that worked out but I know 3.0 and whatever should work as I just did a flash with that and all is well. So if you figure it out then post back...

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
@stealth Im Trying to right Now. It might be the Yellow glow though and not the green one. Which one you think would be better?

@ Shokouhi Yeah i understand im sorry. Just my little mod was made for your ROM thats why i posted it here sorry OP. Anyone with questions to me please PM me. OP is it cool though if i add my finished product here though?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Da9L:
I also get boot loop :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mahagon Coral:
I meant the background of the notification bar, that thing you made pure black ^^ In my opinion something like the background used in this rom would fit sense better.

Hope you understand now what I mean.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] malloy0:
From what I have experience with many ROMs, and many times, the boot loop is because of NOT wiping the cache nor data, wipe booth. So do a full wipe.

Also, I have CW 3.0 and have not had any trouble with boot loops, and have flashed 10-15 times with shokouhi's ROM and others. Only time there were issues, was when I did NOT wipe. Also, sounds like Shokouhi is using CW 2.5 and not having any trouble.

Sorry...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dustrho:
I tried the 1.5 version after doing a complete wipe of my phone, and I'm also getting the bootloop of Honeycomb animation like others here.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 0milut:
i`m also stuck in bootloop, wipe data & cache 3 times downloaded .zip again performed wipe ...and nothing changed, so im back to "stock" 2.3.3
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] RANDYRKELLY:
mines runs great. make sure you have latest version of CW and also do a full wipe. mines is just slow to me
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dustrho:
Which version are you referring to, 1.0 or 1.5?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
So your asking for it to be multicolored like the stock background?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] RANDYRKELLY:
im running 1.5. Well was. had to leave it. want mount usb and buggy. keeps reloading home. very sticky like
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Ok guys. Was able to finish it. How you guys like it? With the green overscroll :)

Yeah the overscroll isnt fully down but you get the point lol. Can't post anything until the OP says its alright. Hopefully he may add it to the OP if enough of you guys like it :cool:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jmwils3:
I know Id like it :) it would make an awesome fusion of gingerbread and sense. would it be compatible with the t-mobile theme engine, perhaps?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dustrho:
Looks very good. Did you simply upload this as 1.5 again, or have you not uploaded it for download yet?

Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Thanks :D. No its not i'm sorry this is specifically for sense in a flashable zip from recovery.

If the OP ok's it, i will upload it seperately. It will be a simple flashable zip from recovery. No need for a wipe or anything :) i did make it for 1.0 but it should flash without a hitch.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Chinam4n:
Getting a bootloop after installation, did a full wipe of everything. Did it twice and still no luck :(.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
As stated before please start a thread in the themes section cool? No problems just please respect my request.

Other Issue: I found an issue in the framework. It is now fixed uploading 2.0 in a few!

Shokouhi
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Alrighty. sorry.

Just curous, whats the bug?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
Uploading 2.0

Cheers,

Shokouhi
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Changelog in 2.0?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:

Cheers,

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mike96789:
Is there a way to import fonts into absolute system?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] joemm:
Don't think your gonna get an awnser here for your question, since your question has absolutly nothing to do with shokouhi's rom, it was just posted as a way for you to change the font of the rom by another member. Try posting in the Q and A section.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rubene66:
do i need to change from 1.5 to 2.0 what are the benefit?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
JoeMM yeah mate I don't mind helping people but I don't want reruns. I mean there were legit rom questions and issues. I resolved them you know.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] joemm:
I know, just helping you keep the thread on topic. Keep up the great work :)

Just flashed 2.0 and really like the set up, looks good.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
Thanks mate I appreciate your support. If anyone has questions they can always PM me! JoeMM glad you like the rom. I like that setup as well.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Eddiepapi:
Are you adding the screen on/off animation?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
No one besides HomerSP knows how to do that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] coolmarkoo:
That's not true. A lot of developers know how.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bstylz911:
Weather widget isn't loading the weather for me.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fajarep:
no problem with weather widget :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fajarep:
testing for the first time, no problem until now, a little bug, the password field font still default..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kevin001111:
Homersp's does thing to sense roms I didn't think were possible! Please add trackpad wake/unlock and a customizable right side dock button!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bstylz911:
+1 agree.

thank you for the rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] muz2000:
I got the same issue.. just remove the battery and fix it back.. and turn on the power.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Da9L:
Tried allready..

But maybe this 2.0 have fixed this issue? What is the changes from 1.5 to 2.0 ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] edwarddl:
Maybe I missed it but what are the new changes in 2.0? Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Who else has those animations in their Gingerbread Sense build then?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mahagon Coral:
Exactly, if that does not cause too much work, of course ;-) I ain't complaining about getting stock gb theme!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Chinam4n:
I did that twice, and was no luck. Going to try 2.0, was getting bootloop in 1.5.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bdix:
Love the Rom, just need OC
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] likingandroid:
Appy diffrent fonts

I've downloaded the two additional font sets. How do I change the font set and increase the size of the font.

ROM works very well but the fonts are too small. Any assistance is appreciated.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
The font issue is addressed a few pages back. Also with the change log I addressed issues from 1.5 and made some needed changes in the framework and to the rom in general. Fixed update issues in some widgets. And some other fixes.

Shokouhi
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dilfatx:
Can't seem to install this rom for the life of me.. clean wipe and everything.. with no luck.. stays on boot screen
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
Are you using 2.0? I tested it three different times. Others are saying it is working fine. I also installed it with the newest CWM and all is well...

Shokouhi
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
It appears many have it let me know if you figure it out?

Shokouhi
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bstylz911:
When I watch a video in gallery it doesn't auto-rotate.

Anyone else with this problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
The phone is not with me but I will look into this when I arrive to my home this evening. Are you using 2.0?

Shokouhi
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] unclefrancis:
Same for me. I'm coming from cm nightly, wiping everything. Tried both 1.5 and 2. Using latest clockwork flashed from recovery and also using rom manager app. Only boot loops for me.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bdix:
I have both the stock and Sense gallery. Also will any of the sense IC kernelswork for this Rom?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
This is interesting to me. I don't know why some have issues and some do not. Very strange. Yeah I am not sure on this. I can only speak of my own experiences as to my roms. I can assure you guys that they have been tested. I am sorry your not having luck. I will look into this at a later time. However I know the rom works. There must be something your missing.

Shokouhi
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
For those of you that did not bootloop as these guys did what was your procedure? I am interested in hearing from you.

Shokouhi
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
Well I put them both in as I use some for things and the other for different things. As to the kernels. Only stock for now. If you try the others it may break the rom. I will look into the kernels more for the next update. Also are you on 2.0?

Shokouhi
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] symple:
I'm not a dev but I've had looping issues on my myTouch 4G when I made attempts at a clean installation

So this is my method of a full wipe as listed in other threads (I've gotten so used to it, that it's become apart of my full-wipe routine

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache partition

go into "mounts and storage" and click the following:

unmount /cache

format boot

format system

format data

format cache

go into advanced:

Wipe dalvik cache

Hope this helps. . .and remember always do a NAND backup.

@shokouhi:

Downloading ROM now to test. . . .thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bdix:
2.0 for me commin from CM RC4. Downloaded the Rom from Megaupload in it link and flashed it via ROMManger. Booted fine first shot. Also wiped and cleared.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
Thanks and I will add to the OP! This is close to what I do. I guess I figured if someone can root this device they can do this as well. :) This will def clarify some things I am sure.

Shokouhi
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
Thanks mate added to the OP now!

Glad it worked mate! I hope you enjoy it!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
I think in the near feature I will put together a beta testing team? I will give this some thought and see who may be interested. Then there will be multiple testers that can verify they work.

Cheers,

Shokouhi
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BrutalHoe:
U should add all the downloads n addons to rom manager!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bstylz911:
Yes I am on 2.0

On other time, video auto plays on landscape. On your Rom, I would need to open keyboard to have it go to landscape.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fdxgnd:
I got it to work last night after trying many things. I was looping on 3 separate occasions. I am on latest clockwork and I tested what I did on the 1.0 last night and the 2.0 as well. It works every time now. Boot into recovery. I did a wipe date/reset 6 times. Yeah, I know. But it worked. Then I wiped cache 6 times. Then went into advanced and wiped dalvik 6 times. Then I went in and flashed it. It sounds like luck that it worked. But, it didn't work before I did this. And, it's worked every time after doing it this way.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dilfatx:
Ditto to that
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
Interesting... 6 times? LOL!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] unclefrancis:
I have to say that worked. Wiping Data and cache and dalvik wasn't enough. Thanks for adding the instructions, too bad about the condescending remark.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fdxgnd:
6 times is right. No clue why it worked, but it did. Great rom dude.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
No ill intentions mate just saying the root process was much harder lol! I am glad you got it to work. We are all friends here so let's all keep it cool you know!

Shokouhi
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
Glad you like it! I would love a hit of the thanks button! LOL!

Shokouhi
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] joemm:
I've flashed all three versions so far and have not had 1 bootloop, I came from CM7, I wiped date, cache and dalvik cache, then flashed the rom, no problems.

I might suggest putting up MD5 check sums for your downloads so people can verify their rom downloads are not corrupt.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] travisd4est:
Any chance you could get the Swype in this for next release?

I'm also in the process of making my own ROM. I thinking of something totally different than what everyone here has been posting. Not sure if its gonna work but im hoping. Maybe you would like to talk and collab?? if so PM me.

Btw great rom buddy :-) keep it up
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] malloy0:
Boot loops?

Boot loops?

I did not see any boot loops?

(a play on the Bud commercial, Playoffs? Playoffs? Get it :D)

Anyway, all bad humor aside, I did the ROM Manager "install from Zip File" then Backup Rom and Wipe "check boxes" checked and first time install.

No issues. Now to get my Corp email up and running, Goodlink. My IT group, what a pain!

Thanks shokouhi!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
me too but I have NO IDEA why I'm asking this here... lol... carry on!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] symple:
I've never done beta testing but there's always a first time. . .let me know if there's room for one more when your ready. :cool:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shokouhi:
Please elaborate on this I am not sure I follow you mate...

Which 2.3.3 rom has 1000+ points in quadrant advance?
[XPERIA X8 General] rafcamora91:
ratch's 2.3.3 RC2 I have run full benchmark As soon as I have install it, I thinhk it was 1012 do not know exactly...and now I tested it, score is 985...
[XPERIA X8 General] Tobi@s:
Ooops... pls delete...
[XPERIA X8 General] oleq:
Most of 2.3 is very unstable. [ROM] 2.2.1 MiniCM-1.0.0-RC1 for x8 - 1033 with my X8. It's working pretty smooth.
[XPERIA X8 General] skoczek12:
It's possible ?
[XPERIA X8 General] ThePietn1:
Maybe Legend Hackdroid gets over 1000, it's considered to be very fast...
[XPERIA X8 General] mati96PL:
Latest Ratch rom for me has 996 points in quadrant
[XPERIA X8 General] ThePietn1:
MiniCM isn't always above 1000 as well, but it you close apps and try again you maybe get over 1000. :D
[XPERIA X8 General] mati96PL:
I'm not talking about minicm -.- read topic, it's about 2.3.3
[XPERIA X8 General] ThePietn1:
I'm saying that scores aren't always the same, so maybe you can get more than 1000 by closing app or retrying.

+ Most ROM's are getting more than 1000 now, with X8Overclock...
[Desire HD General] eqzgkxokwa:
hi,

I am a happy user of the HTC stock ROM (rooted + chroot debian), except of one thing: the WLAN driver...

due to its limitation it is nearly unusable from debian. but cause I just want that, I would love an alternative WLAN driver.

is there a driver and what chipset is used in dhd? is there a way of installing a driver without using another kernel / ROM?

greets
[Desire HD General] adwinp:
The driver is for the bcm4329 chipset (found in drivers/net/wireless).

It compiles just fine over a range of kernel versions.
[Off-topic] z33dev33l:
Ok, well I figured instead of a thread where everyone just comes in and posts their favorite OS it would be nice to put a little bit more thought into our posts. So, what are your opinion on these 3 OSes and what would you say their strengths and weaknesses are? My opinions are as follows;

Android:

Strengths- Completely open source and all APIs readily available, huge market of apps, best hardware selection.

Weaknesses- Ugly and laggy user interface due to no hardware accelerated UI, OEM's additions to the UI generally suck, able to get viruses, terrible fragmentation, worst update process ever.

General opinion- It was fun but flashing roms at least once a week was getting annoying and the fact that the update process is generally non-existent is an annoyance. It's terrible knowing that if I went out and bought the latest 2.2-2.3 phone today it's highly unlikely that it would ever see 2.4 or whatever the next iteration might be.

___________________________________________________________________

iOS:

Strengths- Best supported OS and devices on the market to date, fluid UI, best market, always nice devices, best update process imaginable, Netflix.

Weaknesses- Hideous UI, severe hardware limitations, not as open as android.

General opinion- Apple is scared to change a tried and true formula and though the minuscule 3.5 inch screen may be fine for some for me and many others it's just dated. The UI is just as cluttered as your average android UI though to their credit it is smooth.

___________________________________________________________________

Windows Phone 7:

Strengths- The hardware selection paired with Xbox live and new titles like Ilomilo and Fable Coin Golf make it the best mobile gaming platform in my opinion (iOS would take the cake but I cant game on a screen that tiny), the UI is refreshingly new and intuitive and does not lag, great update process, Netflix, great hardware selection.

Weaknesses- very few APIs open to developers, limited app market by comparison to the other two, "very locked down" in most peoples opinions, not much room for customization.

A lot of people are scared of Windows Phone either because they had a terrible experience with Windows Mobile or they were one of the few who had a great experience with WinMo and didn't want it to change. If you want an OS that is great out of the box that you don't have to build on then in my opinion this is your guy. I've used about every mobile OS out there and this is the only one that has really stuck to me. The uniformity across the OS and the way everything is so well integrated could not have been done better. I admit it has a ways to go before it can keep up with some of the bigger fish in the sea but for the time being the overall user experience is so good that I don't mind at all. Not once on android did I find a game I enjoyed half as much as Ilomilo or Fable Coin Golf. It really is better than most give it credit for.
[Off-topic] klimac:
well, i wanna add something to the iOS section. After the last update, the iPhone 3g has become laggy. All i wanna say is that apple doesn't care much about how its old devices "act" with its new iOS.

I have an android phone (gs3) but i can't say much about that OS, because I have had it for 1 month.

I don't have any experience with win phone 7 OS. But I have heard good things.
[Off-topic] aventinus:
Android​

Strengths: Open source which leads to several choices to software (ROMs) and hardware. Based on Linux. As an open system it's available for experimenting and learning.

Weaknesses: Market haven't reached it's potential yet. Google needs to control the fragmentation.

General Opinion: I prefer Android due to the strenghs I just mentioned.

iPhone​

Strengths: Best market in the phone industry, smoother interface than the rest.

Weaknesses: Apple is the worst company in terms of options. It want everything to be done by it's means. iPhone is the most expensive phone (not only terms of apps) as sometimes you must pay for an update.

General Opinion: iPhone -as a device- is a great device. But I realy dislike the policy of Apple in almost everything. Apple treats its customers as robots by not giving them option ands sometimes by -almost- comanding them what they should like. Famous Jobs phrase says it all: "People don't know what they want until you show it to them"

Windows Phone 7​

Strengths: Not a major one.

Weaknesses: To many to write down... :P

General Opinion: Indifferent.

z33dev33l well done for opening this post. It should be intresting. :-)
[Off-topic] r916:
Been using the Android OS since dec 08 and never had one virus. Hell on my evo I download torrents on it all the time and not once have I ever had a virus.
[Off-topic] SciFiSurfer:
Android and iOS scale rather well from phone to tablet. WM really doesn't. Also WM doesn't even begin to have the ecosystem (users, developers, apps, etc.) that Android and iOS do.

Android's biggest issue right now is a lack of some of the kind of commercial apps that iOS does, like the iWork suite. I am seriously considering getting an iPad 2 depending on how much it's going to cost to get my MBP serviced.

Ultimately, it's about the tools you need. I love my EVO 4G which I wouldn't trade for the world. But I also need to be productive and "get stuff done" and so whether that's Mac OS X or Windows 7 on a laptop, or iOS on a tablet, I'm going to use the best tool(s) I can find.
[Off-topic] raider700:
I use an Android on my private phone (HTC Legend) and don't want to miss it again.

In comparison to that i have an company phone (HTC HD7) with Windows Phone7 and it is frustrating to see a good hardware phone with such a bad software -> to many things are not working.

Two examples:

Downloading some pictures from the windows phone only works with one software ... on an other operating system you really have a problem to get the pictures without syncing them over the cloud ;)

Or synchronizing mails and calendar with an Exchange-Server without an official SSL certificate ...

I never had such problems on Android or Symbian ...
[Off-topic] SciFiSurfer:
If I worked for a company which required me to wear a phone, then I would accept (not necessarily gladly, to be sure) whatever phone they issued, and I would ensure it was THEIR problem to resolve any difficulties, limitations, or whatever else regarding operational capabilities.

My attitude in such matters is a rather unsympathetic "Hey, you people made the bed, so now you can sleep in it".
[Off-topic] z33dev33l:
Thanks for the addition, my first iphone was the iphone 4 so I don't know about all of the old stuff.

Might I ask, have you yet to partake in a WP7 device?

Just because you've yet to recieve one doesn't mean they're not out there.

Windows Phone 7 is growing faster in terms of apps than either android or iOS did when it started and both of those are much more open. It also holds the strongest percentile increase in developer interest month after month.
