Two things.

1) THANK YOU. Best ROM by far right now.

2) Has anyone noticed that when you slide the keyboard up to type something in the search bar, it always highlights the first letter and you end up deleting the first letter as you type unless you type the first letter twice? Forgive me if this has been brought up already. See screen below, you can see the "g" is highlighted so if I started to type GOOGLE it will end up with OOGLE unless I type the g twice. Anyone else have this issue?

Noticed something funny this morning... When my screen goes from "dimmed" to "off," it flashes briefly to "full" brightness. Just a bit of weirdness.

Jury is still out wrt battery life, I have to use wifi calling @ home to get reception @ all. So, I pretty much deal with worst-case battery usage. Using the old stock rom and adding baconbits and setcpu, I would get 15-17 hours. We will see what it's like next week once the battery stats calm down.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cjward23:
Hey xborder,

Looking forward to the latest release. Have you given any thought to including this in rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=780828 I know this is supposed to be as stock as possible, but it really makes widget selection a hell of a lot easier.

And with regards to the "?" Key not working for us with DZ's I was running rmk's stock rom which I grabbed from his IRC channel and he has it working.

Hey xboarder... did I mention that I LOVE this rom. Always come back to it.

Anyway, saw the posting on 1.2.0... any ETA?

Also... maybe a silly thing... but can you try to keep the build.prop as close to stock as possible? I noticed MyAccount doesn't work right without edits. :D.

Thanks again... patiently waiting.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] androidtoy09:
Xboarder, should we wipe or not with the 1.2.0 since it’s a new OTA?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rivera912:
Netflix app out now for G2!:D Im bringing this up now cuz i get no video just audio is it the rom?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mnementh666:
I read that's set up for the G2, but 2.2 base. Maybe GB breaks it? I've got the same issue. I'm going to go back to stock and try it.

Am I being blind? I can't find the download link...

i assumed he was talking about the rom update
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mnementh666:
Well... back to stock Tmo factory 2.2, in all it's glory. Netflix works swimmingly. So i guess it's the 2.3 drivers breaking things, or something.

Anyway... back to Pure! :-D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xboarder56:
Not up yet and I would wipe
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sgt.EddieWinslow:
Yes i have the desire Z (bell version from canada)

ill wait for your update and see if it fixes anything
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tronmech:
One thing I'm seeing is that automatic brightness leaves my display at max all the time. I guess this explains why the display has replaced cell standby as the biggest battery hog. Is there some way to tune the brightness levels automatic brightness uses?

I've also never seen the keyboard backlight turn off if:

1) the keyboard is extended; and

2) the display is on.

I admit it really annoyed me when the keyboard backlight would come and go in a completely-darkened room, so this is an improvement.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xboarder56:
v1.2.0 gonna be ready in 30 minutes i hope :D

uploading now 20 minutes :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JackMagic:
Does the OTA iron out any quirks present in the TEST build - i.e DZ keyboard mapping, call pickup hanging etc?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xboarder56:
v1.2.0 uploaded :D enjoy
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Reignzone:
Thank you very much for this anticipated release! :D

Continue to do what you can to keep our Android experience, bloatware free, and as pure as "humanly" possible.

A little robot joke in there... :rolleyes:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] flamingblue8z:
I would assume not for keyboard mapping... The OTA is for a T-Mobile branded G2, not a Desire Z. I have had to repeat this over and over... *smh* This software was designed for the G2, Xboarder is working with a G2, and most of the changes he makes can't be promised to work on a DZ as well, since it's a different beast altogether. I bet the DZ isn't even the same model as the G2 (which is PC1010000 in the HBOOT). Either way, he is just kinda kludging small fixes into a test build for a T-Mobile branded G2, and with the OTA it will be small fixes to the official T-Mobile build. I'm hoping to find a simple build that is only rooted. I don't need a dozen extra tweaks. Though that ad-block is one of my favorite features.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] trees247:
is it rooted and do it have the wifi calling app?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JackMagic:
Yes I am aware, I was listing for the sake of it, but that aside it would seem unlikely tmobile would push an ota with a bug like call hang, even if it is a gb issue?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xboarder56:
yes both rooted and wifi calling :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sgt.EddieWinslow:
hardward keyboard is fully working now

however the messaging app is force closing, will reboot in a few minutes to see if it fixes itself
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xboarder56:
did you do a full wipe?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sgt.EddieWinslow:
yes full data and cache wipe

ill try installing 1 more time maybe it just glitched?

even after reboot its still not letting me open the message application
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sgt.EddieWinslow:
even after reinstall and a full wipe (did it twice just to make sure)

i still don't have a messaging app

also can't run fix permissions in Rom manager?

also realized i can't get into the mobile networks in the settings menu?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xboarder56:
Will look into it its not doing that to me but will try and creat problem.

I wiped and superwiped you can try that superwipe is in first post
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Sgt.EddieWinslow:
ok will try later tonight, reflashing back to 1.13 right now as i need a working phone for the next couple hours
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] flamingblue8z:
I can officially say v 1.2.0 works great for me. I will have to test the speakerphone echo-back problem. Hey Xboarder, what EXACT changes did you make to the stock build, outside of what you posted in changelog? Also, I find it interesting that in landscape mode, the launcher STILL reverts to the "FroYo" look (separated Apps drawer, phone, browser icons, with transparent background and rounded corners). That's not your fault, that's T-Mobile/HTC not paying much attention. However, the only devices I am aware of that has Gingerbread officially are devices without a hardware keyboard, am I correct? That could very well be a Google bug, they never thought about what changes to make to the landscape mode launcher. But I could be completely misguided. Just seems like an "oops" on someone's part. Otherwise, I have no issues with the Messages app. Also can access the mobile networks screen with no issues. Not sure of Sgt.EddieWinslow's issues, but I can say that before installing the ZIP I did wipe the /system partition, in case that's another cause. Works great though! Now to test Netflix, see if it'll work with this build. It is appropriately reporting that it's a T-Mobile G2, instead of an HTC Vision as it had previously.

Oh and I'm debating about rooting in order to try and figure a way to get Honeycomb 3.1 on my Wifi-only Xoom. Any suggestions from anyone would be nice, cause the Xoom android dev forum is a mess... 3 or 4 different ways to root, none of which are telling me an easy way to root like how I did with VisionaryR14 on the G2.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] androidtoy09:
I suggest that you update the thread title to v1.2.0
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] noodles2224:
Well everything seems to be working great.. one thing I do like is, maybe you slimmed it down a lot but my internal memory has dropped really good compared to any stock. Its at 188 and its always above 220 after all my apps have been loaded. 188 and my apps are loaded. Every MB counts :) Vending.apk still has old pngs of marketplace update and installation complete. Doesn't have gingerbread gray ones but I managed to replace them. Maybe others can confirm, or its just mines..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] antinerd:
Just about to flash this new rom, but i was wondering...had the APN list been added, or do we have to manually create our APN's if we are not T-Mobile users? If the APN list is not included in this build, can it be added to the next one?

Thanks for all of your hard work!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xboarder56:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] flamingblue8z:
Sigh. All these things like EVERYONE'S APNs are bummin me out, I think I'm switchin' builds. I liked having a G2-only build. Oh, and Xboarder, check out what happens if you install the new Google Music app. You'll have two, the default one that comes in the ROM, and the new one supporting Music Beta. Kinda drivin' me nuts right now. But like I said, I'm gonna probably switch, or at least just flash the final build straight from the PC10IMG.zip, and find a way to root it, add busybox, and be on my way. Really that's all I want from a "custom" ROM, busybox and root. Hell, I'd go without the busybox even, I rarely (if ever) use it. Prior to using the CM/GB mix, I was on FroYo, completely stock except for using Visionary to perm-root. That was all. Took forever to boot, but I lived with it, knowing it was completely stock with the exception of root and S-Off. I didn't even have CWM installed, since at the time you couldn't power-off and charge the phone.

Can I at least assume your zippable add-on for ad-blocking will work?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] alnzbail:
Does Netflix app work on this rom?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] flamingblue8z:
I can confirm it does not. Stock FroYo is probably the ONLY one it works with.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] killswitch11:
I've done some digging and found out Netflix IS working with some other phones running variations of 2.3. HTC Evo users running the latest builds of CM7 are reporting success with the app. It just seems with the G2, only stock 2.2 and some ROMs based on 2.2 are running Netflix. Hope there is a fix coming!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] flamingblue8z:
Yeah. Well, the Nexus S is one of the supported phones, as is the Nexus One. I think the app looks for the phone ID string, then the phone version. If they don't match a "supported" Android version for that model, then ur screwed, at least that's my hypothesis. I know I saw koush posting earlier on Twitter that he had a build.prop file to fix Netflix for CM7 on Nexus S. We, however, can't use that particular build.prop because that'd most likely break a lot of things, especially apps in the Market. In case you want to ponder over it, here's the link to his tweet.

http://twitter.com/#!/koush/status/68805839707848704

One other important thing to note is that Netflix didn't come to Android for a long time due to, as they claimed, "no DRM standard" on Android. Now, I remember hearing some kind of DRM was going out in one of the updates to the VZW 3G Xoom a few weeks back, widevine I think the DRM is called? But that is probably related to the new Android Movie Rentals. I did also read about how the DRM for Netflix is resource hungry. I'm not 100% sure on that, either, but I honestly wonder if there's something only in that stock 2.2 from T-Mobile that isn't in this build for some reason, whether it's an oversight or what. I just hope Netflix can sort this out along with T-Mobile, Google, and HTC, cuz I could put my HD7 away finally. I really want Netflix on my Xoom though. I tested the apk on it, and it clearly tells you more than once that the device is not compatible, and prevents you from even TRYING to stream a movie.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JackMagic:
If you have the option of setting up a Virtual Machine, or you run Linux anyway, you could use the "kitchen" developed by someone here on xda to take the stock as a base, do what you're asking and then sign a flashable .zip. It's pretty easy to find.

Its in the OP, download it and flash like any rom first. Its a wipe all in one plus wipes gps partition I believe.. instead of selecting each wipe option one by one.. and then, flash the rom again and you should be good. And yes, you can do it everytime, with a new rom or update if needed..
