This is easily one of the best ways to get everything done in the way of flashing a custom ROM.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=983516

Depending on which ROM you want to install, it will determine what you need to download.

After rooting the phone, you will want to flash a vulnerable recovery sbf via RSD Lite, as shown in that thread the VR you should use will depend on your bootloader version. If you are running 90.78, then you can flash this VR: http://android.doshaska.net/rootable

After that happens, you can create a backup of all of your apps using TitaniumBackup.

Once you do that you want to place OpenRecovery(AOR) on your SD Card. Follow the steps from the first link I posted to get that on. You will want to place the custom ROM that you want into OpenRecovery/updates. If you are planning on using CM7, you will also need to download google apps from the CM7 thread here.

Once that is on, you will want to boot into recovery(power+x, see the Moto M logo, then release and push camera button+volume up), apply update.zip.

From there you want to select the Nandroid menu with the d-pad. Create a nandroid backup of what you want.

Now is the crucial step. You need to wipe the caches and ALL data. Choose wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache partition and wipe data/factory reset.

Now is time to apply your custom ROM!

It is recommended to create a nandroid backup everytime you flash a custom ROM, in case of anything going wrong.

Navigate to apply update in AOR, select the ROM that you want, select yes. Once it is done installing, wipe the caches and data AGAIN.

If you are installing the google apps, you will want to wipe the caches, flash the google apps, then wipe the caches again.

You will probably have to apply the baseband for your carrier, so you will need to navigate to change baseband, and apply the baseband for your carrier.

If you followed those steps, you should have a brand spanking new custom ROM on your phone.

Hope this helps.

@skadude66

I just really want to thank you so much for helping me with that. Your tips and the link to the guide explained step by step what I had to do.

Right now I am running miui gingerbread on my phone and it runs and looks great. Thanks.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] skadude66:
Glad to hear! :D
[Fascinate General] bmeek:
This could imply that samsung is also frustrated with the vzw release process, and is eager to placate this very vocal community...

or not.
[Fascinate General] nitsuj17:
epic got source a few days before their ota...im assuming the trend is continuing here
[Fascinate General] bobloblaw1:
Kinda strange that they would release it on a friday imo. Usually companies like to be open for pr and other reasons when they release something. Meh, what do I know?
[Fascinate General] piizzadude:
Unless, and i am not trying to start something here, Verizon wants to start the Monday news cycle off with their OTA release. I know first thing Monday morning I spend an hour at work catching up on some tech news....

I doubt that though, I was just throwing it out there in reply to the quoted post.
[Fascinate General] landshark68:
Like nitsuj said, Epic Froyo source code release was also on a Friday, and the official release from Sprint was on Monday.

From what I gather, this is pretty much the same as the Mesmerize source, and because it is shoddy coding, it doesn't really seem to be all that helpful

[Desire General] liranh:
I've rooted my HTC Desire quite a long time ago and am currently running Official_FroYo_2.10.405.2, but have never installed Apps2SD.

I want to install it now as I'm running out of space in the pathetic excuse for an internal memory that this phone has...

My questions are:

- Can I install Apps2SD on the ROM I currently have?

- Do I follow just any guide? even if it's almost 2 years old? (for example: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=535232), Or do I need to look for something newer, or more specific to my phone?

- What should I backup before I install Apps2SD?

Thanks in advance!
[Desire General] moonchy:
I feel best way is to install another rom with it built in. Try leedroid for familiar interface else you can check out miui or cm7.

There are also sense Rome with it.
[Desire General] liranh:
Thanks moonchy.

Are you saying all 3 of these roms have HTC sense in them?
[Desire General] theyau:
no, leedroid has sense in it bit miui and cyanogenmod don't
[Desire General] liranh:
Okay mate thank you. I shall try them all and pick my favourite.

HOW TO CHANGE SYSTEM ICONS ON FROYO

Hi @all! Just want to change system icons,just like in the CM7. So,i noticed that in /system/app Apks there are some *.pro files,but the CM7 ROM has *.png files. So today i'm gonna teach how to do this on Froyo.

First of all,pick an Apk from CM7 ROM and extract it. Navigate to /res/drawable-mdpi/ and you will find some *.png files. Search the one with "ic_launcher" prefix and rename his extension from .png to .pro. Then open with 7-zip an LG stock Apk and navigate to /res/drawable-mdpi. Replace ic_launcher original file file with the renamed one and voila,icon is changed!

You can also change other icons with this method.

Tested on openOptimus.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] xSolid3:
thanks - was going to do this now I know!

Thanks for the tutorial.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] zero47:
hey man this one's good........

thanx for dis

but does this method can also change cm7's icons...

just vise versa??????
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] martymart18t:
Thanx...Very helpful post. Can we change it with the rom is running, like with root explorer. And how do we change status bar icons?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] funnycreature:
I am a proud Xoom owner/user but when it comes to available office suites I feel very neglected. I started a thread over at the Xoom forum comparing some of the main features of three major (tablet optimized) office suites.

The official Asus Transformer website states that it will be shipped with the Polaris Suite. Has anyone tried it yet? I know it will be next to impossible to get the apk to run it on the Xoom so if anyone wants to add their experience on the Transformer? Here is the link to the PowerPoint presentation that I used to evaluate the compatibility.

Your help is really appreciated!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] logichoops:
it doesn't work to bad.. everything displays apart from the line of symbol text and the the page numbers just show up as hash. The speed of the app is fine in fact is is almost instant.

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] logichoops:
^ beat me to it! :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] cjwilber:
It has some functions that most other office apps don't have - insert table for example. Even better the table functionality is very feature rich meaning you can do things like merge cells.

I have had it crash on me, and when it did so, it lost all of the work I had done - it would be nice if they did a periodic save.

Speed in use is fine.

I'm comparing it to various paid for office apps I have had on the iPad, and it compares favourably so far.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Kermode:
A question is, is it better than Google docs?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] funnycreature:
I posted a comparison between (for now Word and PowerPoint) Office Suites in the Xoom forum. Bottom line is that none of the currently available apps should be considered perfect. Hopefully the competition coming up with all the Honeycomb tablets will spark a flood of well-developed apps.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] lytnus:
I have found that the doc/xls files saved with polaris suite won't open with openoffice or libre office on my ubuntu 10.10 box, which is a shame, as I really like the functionality of it otherwise. In fact, I don't even think they opened with QuickOffice, which I installed next and, despite its more limited functionality, is reasonably good on my transformer!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Magnesus:
:eek: I wonder if they open in Word. Such suite should have at least RTF. DOC/XLS are very bad choices especially since there are several very different versions of DOC/XLS formats out there.

Here's a youtube review of Polaris. This guy is awesome. Watch his reviews.

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] funnycreature:
I checked out his other videos and it made me want to test drive the Transformer so badly. Even my wife who leans towards iProducts was pretty impressed by its options!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] cd419:
Has anyone been able to get google docs integration work on on Polaris?

I can download a document from my google docs. However it will only save it locally and it won't upload it back to google docs. I also tried creating a new document and pushing it up to google docs and that also failed.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] davedontmind:
If you have the Google Docs app installed, then within Polaris you can click-and-hold on a locally saved file, choose Send -> Docs and it will pass it to the Docs app for uploading.

But that just adds it to your Google docs, and doesn't overwrite and previous doc of the same name.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] cd419:
Damn I was really hoping for decent google docs support. I use google docs alot and not having read write acces is a pain. Does anyone know if Docs to go or quick office has read wirte google docs support and have tried on the xformer?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] the_gunner:
Can you not use Google Docs via the web browser on the TF?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] cd419:
You can use the mobile docs site but it is very basic. The desktop site crashes the browser when I try to use it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] HughR:
The way LibreOffice doesn't open my Polaris file is clearly an LO bug: it crashes trying to do a division by 0.

I'm not allowed to post a URL on this forum but I can tell you that it is bug 40686 in the freedesktop.org bugzilla.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] goodintentions:
Your best bet is to get quickoffice and doc2go. Between polaris, quickoffice, and doc2go, you should be able to do everything you want to do on-the-go.

Once system dumps are obtained, maybe a 100% compatible HTC Sense 2.3 ROM can be cooked?
[myTouch 4G General] epsix:
You can be 100% sure that the dev won't let this past. Looks like our updates to GB looks alot better now hehe
[myTouch 4G General] erickdj:
Yeah, hopefully this allows for a bug-free Gingerbread/Sense ROM on our mt4g's.
[myTouch 4G General] TeeJay3800:
I take away two things from this. First, it shows just how much T-Mobile SUCKS. Why they insist on having a fugly, customized (read bastardized) version of Sense on their HTC phones. Second, why they can't come out with a Gingerbread update in a timely manner is beyond me. The EVO will have Gingerbread in two months, and that phone isn't near as powerful and came out long before the MT4G! Rant over.

This is actually awesome news. This could give us the kernel source we've been waiting for forever, in addition to a ROM that can be directly ported (much like the Desire HD ROMs).
[myTouch 4G General] smooth3d:
Actually the mt4g will get gingerbread, its been confirmed by tmonews!
[myTouch 4G General] TeeJay3800:

[myTouch 4G General] eliasadrian:
I love tmobile's twist on sense, I never stay on another ROM (Cyanogen, Desire ports, or anything) cuz they're not like our stock sense. Even if it compromises speed/memory or something, I doubt it's not much what with all the power our phone has. Just my opinion, so an official tmobile release is gonna be rad!
[myTouch 4G General] epsix:
Doesn't matter if Canada have new sense its still sense 2.1 we have alot of roms running Sense 2.1. We just need the kernel and the lib so we can fix all Sense 2.3.3 :D

Good point, yeah all you need is the kernel. Point is it will be out before the update is pushed to T-Mo users.

They'll be calling it the HTC "Panache".

I noticed the Genius button is gone, back to a plain old search button.

I hope they don't lock down this variant as stringently as the Incredible S. I wonder if there's any hardware differences that'd make it incompatible with a RUU from the MT4G?
[myTouch 4G General] AndrewAD3:
I'm currently using the ROM right now and I think it runs great.
[myTouch 4G General] Ace42:
Stock Sense is less hungry than Mysense/espresso IMHO. Mysense has genius plus other crap in the background compared to stock so it uses more ram.

Thats pretty much the only thing Juice Defender free does that can save your battery, that and turning off wifi too. So if you disable it why even have Juice Defender installed?

Also their developer is not very accessible. They want all issues solved through their forums. I hate that...The best software also has an accessible support system.

The one good thing I will say about it is it has the potential for taking over all aspects of managing your phone. A one stop shop. Just not there yet...
