There are multiple different stock and custom kernel roms. But in general custom is not as stable but is "faster", at this point which one you use is up to you.

I wonder if I misunderstand what you mean by custom, oh well ^_^
[XPERIA X10 General] emoratori:
By "custom", I mean CM, TripMiUI an etc... I think... hehehe...
[XPERIA X10 General] a2ha:
wait for a stable custom kernel with 30fps uncapped and 16m collors. It will own all othe Roms :)
[XPERIA X10 General] shahkam:
Freex10 beta 4 + data2sd you score up to 2300 on quadrant ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] mrljlamon:
had data2sd before, doesnt improve anything significantly.

to answer the question of the thread, all people using cm6 v5 seem to be happy with its speed, including me. i havent run a quadrant test in months since i realized those numbers dont really matter. what matters is if YOU think the phone is fast, not what some app tells u is fast.
[XPERIA X10 General] jonegje:
I recomend CM7 from J! its awsome.. with the custom kernel i got almost 40 on linpack, and some guys broke 40..

[XPERIA X10 General] aR_ChRiS:
I totally agree on what you have said, hence for stability and usability, I would recommend stock + JIT mod.

However if you want more performance numbers and flash 10.2, then I'll recommend WB's CM6.1.3

I use the email client with POP3 service so that it doesn't delete it off the server and I can then receive it on my laptop. Ever since the Epsilon breach I have been getting a junk mail message that I delete but when I refresh, the message reappears. It even reappears as the its already been read and not in bold. If I pull the messages off the server with my laptop (which does delete them upon download) it goes away. Anyone have a clue as to what could be going on?

I want to keep contributing as I can to this community. So I started this thread for Stock Themes with Reboot and Battery Mods.

Lately I have been getting a ton of requests for stock themes with battery mods. So I figured I would start working on that in my spare time and honestly, who wouldn't want the reboot mod....right?

In an effort to spread Autism Awareness as well as my family's story ALL themes are posted in the Theme Repository on my blog. Click on the Android Development Page and learn about Autism while your downloading the theme.....

Thank you for the battery mods! I hated stock with no %.

And thank you for helping me more autistic aware and understand more. I volunteered at the autism walk in Az just a few days ago.
[Epic 4G Themes] ptfdmedic:
Thank you... That made my day :)
[Epic 4G Themes] crawrj:
Thank you very much for the hard work. I do have one question. The stock android man zip has both the standard hdpi folders and also hdpi-v4. From the best I can tell the v4 folders are not needed. Is that the case? Can those folders be removed without breaking anything? Thanks again for all of the help.
[Epic 4G Themes] crawrj:
OK I know I am needy :) but one last question. You have included the twframework-res.apk in the package. Is that necessary for the batterymod or anything else in the package. I already have a modified one that I would rather not have to redo.
[Epic 4G Themes] nicenice19:
Pardon my ignorance. By reading this title, I am assuming this is for Stock ROM's. I tried to flash the circle mod and i get force closes galore. I also tried fixing permissions=no dice. Tried to wipe cache partition, dalvik cache, and reflash and keep getting the same result. Did I misread this or am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance!
[Epic 4G Themes] SpicyBurrito:
I got it to work on the Syndicate ROM. Made a backup, wiped cache and dalvik three times each and have had only one force close at the beginning with LauncherPro, but that hasn't happened since. I just flashed because I wanted the little android mod and using battery icon mod made my phone go into a boot loop. So I can confirm it working for Syndicate, but I'm not sure about Bonsai or the others.

Great work by the way, ptfdmedic.
[Epic 4G Themes] crawrj:
OK I went ahead and removed the v4 folders and used my own twframework-res.apk. Everything is working great. I only have one problem but I think that is an Epic problem and not your mod. When I charge the battery with an external charger or with the phone turned off it works great. If I charge the phone while it is on the phone will alert that it is full however the battery meter says 96%. Sometimes it will say 100% but as soon as I disconnect the charger is drops to 96%.

So thank you again for all that you do. It is much appreciated.
[Epic 4G Themes] k0nane:
On SRF, you need only download the Battery Mod app in Impaler's signature.
[Epic 4G Themes] s9ortner:
Are these for any ec05 ROM or just those with CIQ removed?
[Epic 4G Themes] crawrj:
I am not sure if it works on every rom but it does work on stock ec05 so it doesn't require CIQ to be removed.
[Epic 4G Themes] TexasLTE:
OK - forgive my inexperience in advance. I have Samsung Epic 4G just recently "rooted" , I have ROM Manager / CWM 3.0.2.4 = do I need to download / install something else ? or can I just download / install this ?
[Epic 4G Themes] jojo08:
I'm having same problem as nicenice19, can you elaborate on how to get it to work on EC05, i'm on stock rooted w/ TWS patch.
[Epic 4G Themes] crawrj:
I am on the same setup as you. I used the android guy version. I did not flash it straight out so I am not positive of how it works. What I did was download the androidguy zip. I extracted the res folder from framework-res.apk. I removed all of the -v4 folders because they were duplicates. I replaced all of the images except the battery icons with the theme I am using. I replaced the twframework-res.apk with the theme file that I am using. I put everything back into the zip and flashed with clockwork. And that was all I did.

How did you install the modd? Did you just download and flash the zip in clockwork or did you modify it in any way? If you just flashed it straight out I would try removing the -v4 folders to make sure that is not the problem. If you modified it than make sure you only modified the images and not any of the xml files. Hope this helps. If you can provide more details about how you are installing it maybe we can assist further but try this for now.
[Epic 4G Themes] jojo08:
I flashed the blue circle zip in clockword with out any modification. So if I just remove the -v4 folders from the zip then flash I should be good to go?? Thanks!! (Though curious why those v4 folders are in there in the first place :confused: )
[Epic 4G Themes] crawrj:
I can't say for certain if it will work for you or not but it is something to try. All I can say is what I did using the android guy version. I have not tried the blue circle on. Plus I have customized it a bit and am using my own framework.res file. So any portion of that could be the difference. But let us know how this one goes and maybe the op can help figure it out.

Hello everyone,

Another app leeched from Sony Ericsson Play dump. This is called Liveware Manager.

What does it do ?

Well it lets you choose what applications you want to open when you connect

1. Charger

2. Bluetooth Headset

3. Bluetooth Headphones

So go ahead and enjoy the release.

[APP] Get Games

What does it do ?

This is a game downloader for the Sony Ericsson Play phone, after selecting a game it jumps to the market to find that indivisual game.

You might need Market Enabler to see protected region apps and games for your phone.

[Desire HD Themes and Apps] lynxboy:
Pretty certain this thread will get closed soon. You can't post stuff like this on XDA. Even though you extracted or obtained the apk files from the system dump, the SE apps and definitely the games do not fall under GPL and are most likely licensed to the phone user.

Regards.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] tids2k:
Games are working for me.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] tids2k:
Well in that case, there are other two similar threads that share the same content as I do and I don't think whatever I have posted is against rules. We are a Modding community and there is no harm in Modding an app for our own device. Well installing custom themes and roms violate the GPL rule as well, and as far as I know you are on a custom rom yourself doesn't that violate your GPL rights.

Anyways I am not here to start a fight, but as I said before that the contents I have posted here are from the dump itself and as such does not break any GPL rules and finally it depends on the individual's choice whether to use such on his device.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] tids2k:
To install games copy the apk to /system/app change permissions to 777 and then install from system directory. I have tried Tetris, Fifa 10 and Star Battalion, Sims 3, Crash bandicoot. All working.

Hey I'm not against you or this thread, I'm just giving you a heads up! There is a major difference between flashing a theme and posting links to copyrighted games directly though.

I hope you all don't mind me asking (and if you do, I apologize), but...

What are the great "WOW Factor" roms out here that are current , up-to-date and stable (or fairly so)

I've researched, gotten frustrated, asked for a little help when needed and the current result...

A successful rooting of my Nexus One... my cherry has been popped.

The only things is... I had higher expectations from the experience. It was like having a hot erotic dream and your about to have the mother of all orgasms when your alarm clock goes off waking you up :eek:

I researched HTC Desire Sense UI Rom, but that seems to be out of date and not really supported anymore.

I want pizazz and flare... a super cool UI (which Gingerbread seems to lack), awesome themes and more. I want to look into my phone and have a visual orgasm... but so far, bupkis.

Details that may be of use...

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JieeHD:
have you considered MIUI? , it has an i-phoney look if thats your thing :)

Hero with Sense 2.3 ;)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hollow.Droid:
MIUI easily has the most radical change in UI from stock but I'd say that a feature filled ROM like CM7 might be more to your liking. It's GB based but has a large theme base and a long list of features. I like CM7 but always end up coming back to a stable, fast stock ROM like MCR or Evervolv.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Ok, let me elaborate further on the issue. I've been looking myself lately at the ROM selection, trying to find what would be the best ROM for giving the Nexus to my wife, and got to these conclusions:

1) Pure Gingerbread ROMs are stable enough, but there are several annoying Gingerbread bugs that make the experience not-so-stellar.

2) Old Froyo stock ROMs are stable, but aren't too pretty and consistent, except Sense UI ROMs. Generally, plain Android sucks badly in a few key areas of usability - launcher (semi-curable but with some annoying quirks), dialer (curable but also with annoying quirks), stock email (that's the way it is).

3) MIUI looks great in the beginning, but it's bug-ridden and can't be considered stable.

4) 99% of the ROMs can't be considered fully functional - usually I find bugs in overall usability within less than a day.

I've tried DesireHD and MIUI on my friends. DHD is stable and nice but sometimes lags (when syncing), MIUI is nice but not stable and has bugs. Also, DHD doesn't have the native hotspot.

So for my wife I've settled on Desire ROM, which has the good copy-paste by HTC (the only feature I wanted from Gingerbread, - this and the cool screen off animation), nice integrated dialer and mail, and has everything functional but USB tether.

[Epic 4G General] stevenmcneal83:
I am reaching out to the XDA community because with my Vibrant I received so much help, knowledge, experience you name it everyone has been so awesome. I have really hit a brick wall here with this new Epic and I have to say working on an Epic is 10x harder than a vibrant. I had the syndicatefrozen rom running and all of a sudden I rebooted the phone and it would not go past custom boot. So i did what I always do in the case of reflashing in cwm doesnt work... I used odin to flash the 512 pit and DI18 stock software but it fails every time. Now I have read every post I can find that suggests using a different usb cable, a different computer, try 512 pit, victory pit, tried the tar.md5 or the .tar., try redownloading the files, everything Now trust me when I say with my vibrant I NEVER encounter problems flashing with ODIN. If someone could please take some time to go back and forth with me on troubleshooting I would be so grateful. I have been trying so hard that all the troubleshooting processes have started to run together in my head and I'm really frustrated. Can anyone help?
[Epic 4G General] jackal516:
The very first time I flashed my epic it bricked. It turned out I needed to redownload the Rom in my case. If that didnt work for me, my next step was to get a new cable.

but because it bricked I needed to reflash to a stock rom (which in your case I would re download (FROM A TRUSTED SITE)

Just to make sure... to Odin you need to be in "download mode". You can get into it by hold the #1 key on the qwerty keyboard and holding power. By doing that odin will see your phone.
[Epic 4G General] qbking77:
If you need help, I made a bunch of how to youtube videos. There is a sticky in the general section... check it out.
[Epic 4G General] shabbypenguin:
do not use the pit, it contains partition mapping, if you use the wrong one it can BRICK your phone. but yea stock samsung cable sucks, if i were you id try heimdall
[Epic 4G General] stevenmcneal83:
I have a good bit of experience with ODIN. I've read that you have a better chance of permanently bricking using heimdall. Is that true? Also, how does heimdall work? Basically extract the zip files and load them individually?
[Epic 4G General] Leeboy:
First off, I'm not going to tell you one rom is better than another.....they're all good. However, I have become very fond of midNIGHT roms because the developer is very precise in walking you through the flashing process. He has download links for everything that you need to flash his roms in the op, including the stock D18 files from Sprint. I would try downloading the D18 files FROM HIS SITE and use them to ODIN back to stock. By the way, make sure that ur using ODIN 1.61, that version seems to give people the best results. Don't worry, you can download that from the midNIGHT op also. Make sure that all of the Epic's drivers were successfully installed on your PC. You can also get those from midNIGHT's op. Once you've downloaded the files you need, make sure before you ODIN, that you completely shut the phone down for at least 30 sec. Then open your keyboard and press and HOLD 1 and then the POWER button until you see the android robot with the shovel pop up. That's the Epic's downloading mode. Before plugging the phone into your PC, go ahead and open up ODIN, make sure that you only have reboot checked. Then put the victory.pit file in the pit spot and the stock D18 file in the pda spot. Now you can plug your phone in, if ODIN recognizes the phone you'll see a comm:0 in the top left side of ODIN highlighted in yellow. If not, then you need to reinstall the Epic's drivers. If you do see a comm:0 in yellow, then all is good.....go ahead and click on START and wait for it to finish. When done, ODIN will automatically reset your phone. Wait for it to boot up, then continue to flash according to the rom developer's instructions.......I know this is confusing, but I can guarentee that if you explicitaly follow the directions on midNIGHT's op, you'll be enjoying a new rom in no time. Hope this helped to some degree.....Good Luck......Happy Flashing;)
[Epic 4G General] Leeboy:
if you use the .pit file that is included with the stock d18 file on midnight's op, i guarentee that it will work.......just used it a couple days ago. Sounds like you used the wrong .pit file the first time:(
[Epic 4G General] Leeboy:
My bad, I just double checked my downloads from midNIGHT's op and the correct .pit file he includes with the ODIN 1.61 download. Just download ODIN from midNIGHT's page and you'll have all the correct files for ur Epic;)
[Epic 4G General] Leeboy:
Where the hell did u get the 512 .pit file?
[Epic 4G General] heathmcabee:
\

Take the tar.md5 and erase the md5 off the end, just to have .zip. Put this in the PDA box and check marked. This worked for me numerous times when I downloaded the DI18 file. Make sure you just have Auto Reboot checked and no others, and make sure COM port is showing up with the appropriate drivers installed, which are the same for the Vibrant I believe. So shouldn't be the problem. Dont worry bout the pit file, it is a mapping source for the md5 that isn't really needed. If that fails, try a different port on the computer on the back and another USB cable.
[Epic 4G General] Benjamin Dobell:
No, however based user reports, the opposite could most certainly be argued.

However in the end it just comes down to personal preference. Just use whatever you're more comfortable with.
[Epic 4G General] shabbypenguin:
i didnt use a wrong pit, but just fore warning as he said he did. also you do not need to use the pit. it will pull it from the phone for just flashing
[Epic 4G General] stevenmcneal83:
Thank you for all of the responses. I think only one person suggested something that I have not yet tried. The person that said to remove "md5" from the ".tar". But now my device will not be recognized by the computer. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers numerous times. tried 3 different computers. tried no battery. tried leaving the battery out for a while and putting it back in. Ive tried a different cable. Does anyone know a guaranteed way to get my pc to recognize the phone? I mean once I get past this I can finally actually work on fixing the device. Thanks again everybody that gave their input. I'm going to destroy this phone soon if something doesnt give lol (also, the phone will go into download mode so there is still hope, i think)
[Epic 4G General] stevenmcneal83:
Ok. somehow the computer all of a sudden recognized the device. I used heimdall to flash the stock software. The flash was completely successful, the phone rebooted and showed the sprint boot animation with sound, after that the screen is just blank. Any ides? I'm so close I can feel it
[Epic 4G General] decalex:
i can feel it too.
[Epic 4G General] heathmcabee:
If you flashed the stock software and it said successful I can only imagine you need to wait longer for it to boot. I have never used heimdall, due to always having success with Odin, so I can't give any real advice past this point except to try again. If you do get Odin to work, then please try the remove .md5 at the end and flash the DI18 file WITHOUT pit and I"m pretty sure that will work.

Use this utility in Windows I've uploaded and hit Description to organize the folders. Once that is complete, scroll down to the drivers that are named "Samsung SPH-D700 Card" and others. You will see many of them. Right click on the target and Uninstall them and all and reboot your computer. Then proceed to reinstall the drivers normally. This should make your computer recognize your phone again.

Once it does, Open ODIN, untick F. Reset Time, Tick the PDA and select the file in which you removed the .md5 ( should just be .tar file) and hit start.

Here is the program to remove drivers:

[Epic 4G General] stevenmcneal83:
The problem now is not getting the phone to recognize. It all of a sudden started working. When I use ODIN it fails EVERY time. I know I'm using ODIN correctly because I have flashed back to stock about 4 times previously with this phone. When I flashed with Heimdall it said it was successful and the sprint boot screen came on which is further than I have been able to get in a week so it leads me to believe I'm very close to fixing it. After the bootup animation I left the phone for 10 minutes and the screen just stays blank with the capacitive buttons lit as well as led indicator light. I've tried mulitple flashes and still nothing. Any ideas?
