How to flash? What do you need?

HTC Desire S S-OFF

Radio S-OFF in order to flash new radio (Radio not included in this MOD)

Recovery ClockworkMod (latest official build!)

When can we expect the next update?

As soon as i get time away from my busy schedule lol.. kids, work and the wife!

Can I update without losing all my apps and settings?

Yes, each release can be flashed without losing your data. But I recommend making a Nandroid Backup before updating/flashing.

I want to remove all Sense Related stuff, is this possible with this ROM or do i need to install a non-Sense related ROM?

I have attached a sense removal script with default launcher. Just run that through recovery and you should end up with a non-Sense ROM :)

After I loaded a new ROM and performed a restore, I have duplicate ringtones/notifications/alarms?

You can fix this by clearing the data of "Media Storage" (Menu->Setting->Applications->Manage applications->Media Storage->Clear data), then reboot.

How can i Change system/app/... apks skin or icons?

Since this Build is optimized and Odexed you will need too take some precautions. First you will need a APK Deodexed that you trying to change. Then from within the Build you will need to delete the apk and the respective odex file.

Example:

(Changes to the browser)

1. Inside Build system/App you will find Browser.apk and browser.odex you will need too delete both files.

2. You will need a browser.apk Deodexed which contains the Browser.apk & Browser.odex merged into one bigger Browser.apk

3. Make the changes and then push it to system/app (don't forget 1st step)

Another way would be to use an Android kitchen to deodex the entire system/app and then you will have the system/app deodexed then just change what you like.

I dont like the 4x5 app drawer in CoreDroidMoD 5.4 & 6.5, can i revert back to the 4x4? or I dont like the 5x5 app drawer in CoreDroidMoD 6.5

I have attached the 4x4 & 4x5 version to this post. Just flash it through recovery, reboot and wait for it to re-build the dalvik cache.

CoreDroidMoD_Rosie_4x4.zip for CoreDroidMoD v5.4 and

CoreDroidMoD_v6.5_Rosie_Trans.zip for CoreDroidMoD v6.5

CoreDroid_Desire_S_V6.6_Rosie_Trans - 4x5

Im not too keen on the keyboard in this ROM, can i get the stock one back?

Just flash this zip through recovery, reboot and wait for it to re-build the dalvik cache.

I dont the like the included fonts, is there anyway i can restore the stock fonts?

Just flash CoreDroidMod Stock Fonts zip through recovery, reboot and wait for it to re-build the dalvik cache.

Should I use a task killer?

Task Killers are NOT advised! They do nothing but kill your battery and stop processes that aren't supposed to be stopped. Besides Task Killer tweaks have already been applied to the ROM ;)

However i have attached the Sense 3.0 HTC Task Manager if you feel the need to have one. Just flash it through recovery, reboot and wait for it to re-build the dalvik cache. USE ONLY WITH CoreDroidMoD v5.4 and NOT CoreDroidMoD v6.5!

Is there anything else i can do to improve battery?

You can disable "Tell HTC" and "OTA Software Updates" found in about phone > software information. You can also set your phone to use 2g and alternate it to 3g when you need to. Also if you dont use Stocks, News, Hub or HTC Like you can uninstall or freeze these using Titanium Backup (freeze only available in the pro version!).

How come I get low Quadrant scores on GB ROMs?

This is mainly because there aren't any custom kernels yet. We're using a stock GB kernel without tweaks or OC.

Are there custom kernels for GB ROMs?

No not yet. The source code for GB kernels has been released. So it's a matter of time now before we can get to use these.
