THANK GOD! This is the first new rom posted here since liberty 1.5. Keep up the good work!
[Droid X Android Development] TheEnzyteGuy:
So far I like it, gonna use it for a couple days and see how it does :-) keep up the good work. Also I'm glad to see a rom for GB woot.
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
That is very true...I'm assuming that yuor flashing from 2.2 which in that case it would work, if not use D2BR! I'll fix that in the post, sorry for the mix-up!
[Droid X Android Development] blueis300:
Gonna give this a try.Figure I have an hour to kill to check it out.
[Droid X Android Development] ILikeBubbles:
super excited about this!!! not sure if i want to move on it yet because i'm really worried about stability... i sbf'd my boyfriend's phone back to froyo stock and it STILL reboots and i'm getting tired of it. considering how this is the first real gingerbread rom that i've found i'm willing to follow it and see how it goes. i'll probably break down in a couple days here and install it anyway... basically... THANK YOU!! :D
[Droid X Android Development] Jmoney47:
Since I can't tell from the description or the screenshots, is this rom blur-based or aosp-based?
[Droid X Android Development] brd912:
Wow,you flashed for your boyfriend:D lol on topic,great to see something new. Ill test shortly
[Droid X Android Development] bouchigo:
Have you guys not heard of ApeX 2.0 or ZombieStomped, or Liberty GB even?
[Droid X Android Development] ILikeBubbles:
i've heard of Liberty GB but after doing a lot of research i kind of don't want to use it.. that and i can't really find liberty gb .5 online and they say you have to buy the app or whatever and i've already paid for the bootstrap for Dx and D2 for my boyfriends phone and... well maybe i just gave up because i became very frustrated on what i couldn't find after like a week of straight looking. but i think he'd be interested in ZombieStomped. :D sounds epic. could you link it? along with ApeX if you don't mind :o just in case i can't find it myself :) ty though for the tip!!

[edit] um.. just fyi i'm looking for a blurless build, i'm assuming any rom i could download will also be bloat free... but there shall be no blur on any phone i control. xD
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
yes i have heard of all of them..and ik the developers..Doesn't mean I can't make one too.. People are just excited cause someone like me finally took the time to give the droid x Xda forums some love by posting it here! t's very stable right now guys I'm gonna release the full version by the end of this weekend!
[Droid X Android Development] bouchigo:
Check your pm :D

I figured you would have heard of them, just some replies here made it seem like this was the only ROM available for GB DX.
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
yeah i gotcha man haha
[Droid X Android Development] TheEnzyteGuy:
Well I've been using this rom for, what seems a couple days, and no issues for me :-) I think im in love lol.
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
2.3.3 GingerAle Official is now here download it from the same place. Working on a Blurless GingerAle for all you blur haterz come and get it!
[Droid X Android Development] razorloves:
you said the magic word. blurless. eagerly waiting. thanks.
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
gotta wait till sunday unfortuantely i have a life un;like some other devs lolz jk but seriously Sunday is the day!
[Droid X Android Development] Jmoney47:
Everyone has heard of them, however they are by well-established developers. I was happy that someone is taking time to get development going again. We have maybe 3 good developers left for the droid x. That is why I am happy for another.
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
Glad to hear people like my work :)
[Droid X Android Development] owenbeals:
Keep it up smyers...
[Droid X Android Development] Popsiclestand:
Is anyone else lose the Google Talk app when they flashed this? Anyone know how to get it back?

Thanks!
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
its considered bloatware cause the majority of people dont use it and its not needed so i took it out! My bad on that one..Might be in the market check there..If enough people want it back ill add it in on the next update coming in a couple of weeks..Ive been working on this rom for a while so I'm taking a week or two vacation from developing and ill be back on the scene within 14 days or so!
[Droid X Android Development] Popsiclestand:
Ah, I see. Great rom otherwise! Thanks!

I checked market and it's not there. Also tried to sideload an apk which installed but I could never open it without FC. Here's hoping some other people use it.

Have a nice rest smyers!
[Droid X Android Development] meshdub:
You probably need to fix the permissions for the app.
[Droid X Android Development] IronMan187:
so after flashing this rom I lost clockwork mod and all my attempts to get it back on just results in a black screen when I boot into recovery
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
Clockwork mod does not work on any gingerbread bc on GB u need D2 Bootstrap and Rom Manager realizes ur using a DX not a D2 so it's not going allow clockword mod on D2 Bootstrap cause its simply the wrong build
[Droid X Android Development] ILikeBubbles:
Super looking forward to blurless!! Hopefully with the official ota coming out this Friday things will be a little smoother for ya :D
[Droid X Android Development] IronMan187:
so which recovery can I use for gb then and thx for clarifying that for me
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
ur gonna wanna go ahead and grab Droid 2 Bootstrap Recovery my friend
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
ATTENTION!

There have been a lot of known bugs issues with this Rom not just with the theming but with force closing and things like that! So I am coming back early then taking a break until the official OTA comes out. If someone still wants to port the rom over to .595 or whatever your welcome to but I wouldn't bother if the OTA is coming out soon! I will have the update out either tonight or tomorrow depending on the amount of time I spend on it! Please bare with me and if possible email me all the bugs you currently recognize on the Rom as of now. You can email me at SeanMyers10@gmail.com! I also wanted to mention that I am not going to do Blurless until the OTA as well but will port this Rom and a Blurless version to the OTA a couple days after its release!

Thanks,

Sean Myers
[Droid X Android Development] IronMan187:
that's what I figured thx for the clarification
[Droid X Android Development] schmidty86:
I noticed immediately that my beloved Gtalk was missing, and cannot figure out how to get it back. Should be so simple, but it's not....
[Droid X Android Development] schmidty86:
Please explain
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
gtalk will be added back in the update coming tomorrow evening!
[Droid X Android Development] schmidty86:
Thank you! You rock, and it really is an awesome job, I don't want to nit pick my only issue so far.
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
Update coming for GingerAle in an hour!
[Droid X Android Development] thatguy07:
Does this update anything that would screw a non verizon user up? Sorry if this is general knowledge I've searched and cannot find any info.
[Droid X Android Development] mheller91:
So will this work with rooted deodexed .595?
[Droid X Android Development] schmidty86:
Until there's an update with Gtalk added back in, I would LOVE for someone to tell me how to do it myself. I spent a couple hours trying different APKs and .zips. The only time I ever even got an icon for it it just FC'd every time I opened it.
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
GingerAle 2.0 is released! Come and get it.... If you have any problems please notify me ASAP!!!!

Email: SeanMyers10@gmail.com

New Screenshots coming soon... For now check the ChangeLog and use your imagination :)

P.S. - You will need to wipe data/cache if you are coming from an older version of GingerAle just because I made some interal changes in the software of the ROM! Thanks and sorry for the inconvinience!
[Droid X Android Development] Sheen160:
So how's the battery life on this thing? I know when I updated to the gingerbread leak my battery drained like crazy. I'm just gonna chalk it up to motoblur being the problem, but i could be wrong. Anyway if this is good on battery I'll probably flash it.
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
I have GingerAle 2.1 ready... I need a few testers to check if all the problems were fixed that 2.0 brought us! Sorry to say I dropped Gtalk again because it's simply just too complex to get it to work and it noticably slows the phone down! If your interested in testing the ROM email me!

Email: SeanMyers10@gmail.com
[Droid X Android Development] LovellKid:
Hey can I upgrade to this from stock 2.1? Just rooted..
[Droid X Android Development] schmidty86:
Unfortunately I am one of the people who thinks of Gtalk as a necessary part of the OS. I was glad to see and use a GB based ROM on XDA but this is where I get off, thanks for the hard work.
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
Google Talk is considered bloatware? Uh since when & on what forum? Every ROM I've seen for both my DX, my wife's Dinc & a few other Android phones I've loaded custom ROMs on have all had it built in. Not once have I seen someone anyone say it was "bloatware". Just sayin'

What's the ETA on this being updated to the final released version of GB & gTalk :D being left in?
[Droid X Android Development] hiv0lt:
Put me down for AOSP with gtalk. Thx.
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
For the recent complaints about not having Gtalk I am going to do this! Once OTA is rooted and ready to go I will port everything from GingerAle to the update with Gtalk included!
[Droid X Android Development] bigshotrob22:
It is rooted. TBH released it over the weekend.
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
Not the real OTA. Sorry I should've been more clear. The one TBH released is just an add on to .595 and not the actual OTA!
[Droid X Android Development] sfreemanoh:
Does this ROM have a way of setting a battery icon with percentage, instead of just the bare image?
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
i can go ahead and put it in the next update if enough people ask for it. I can't just do one request if I get enough requets I'll add it in 3.0
[Droid X Android Development] shukero:
Ok, I have a few questions about this rom:

1) I have droid x bootstrap recovery and I'm on 2.2 Froyo rooted, so I was wondering if I could move from that directly to this rom? I heard something about having to get droid 2 bootstrap, so what exactly would I have to do to upgrade?

2) Im also concerned about the last person who posted a reply about the battery icon. Is it a static icon as he says? does it goes down in 1/4's or 10%'s, etc?

3) Is this already deodexed and rooted as well? hate having to do that myself :(

I'm really excite to jump over to gingerbread, but I definitely need it to be both rooted and deodexed before I jump ship.
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
Completely understandable how you can be confused. So you only need D2 bootstrap if your on GB already to flash something on there! However DX Bootstrap is fine if your coming from 2.2! Also to answer your other question. It IS rooted..Not deodexed but odexed. If you really are interested in deodexing then download xUltimate2.3.3 he has a VERY easy process! Hope this helped!

Thanks,

Sean Myers
[Droid X Android Development] shukero:
Ok, So Just to be sure, after I rom this with droid x bootstrapper from 2.2 to GIngerbread, I'll have to get droid 2 bootstrap to make backups / go back to froyo?

Also I was wondering about the de-blurred rom, since the final OTA update came out.
[Droid X Android Development] Lewcid:
Netflix dosnt work

Netflix app will not work. Ive wiped and reflashed. even tried flashing oem sbf then flashing, but still no dice.

Update: continued to try to get this working. gave up and just grabbed the log file. Check it out and let me know if its something with my setup or what. The log file is attached.
[Droid X Android Development] openbox9:
Does GingerAle suffer from the worthless Motohelper disc image mounting when connected via USB like stock DX GB and other ROMs that I've tried? Thanks for your work on this ROM Sean, and I'd like to give it a try if you've killed off the Motohelper thing.
[Droid X Android Development] timrock:
what happened to Google Talk. I cant even get it from the market.

edit: never mind.
[Droid X Android Development] shukero:
This might be because they are testing Netflix out on only 2.2 devices at the moment. Remember that droidx really isn't even supported yet officially anyway....
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
Everyone I am releasing GingerAle 3.0 and then I am simply cleaning up shop after that. It will have a couple things fixed that should please everyone. For everyone else once the Offical OTA which I took last night is rooted manually I will work on a completely new Rom for the Droid X on 4.5.596. I was thinking STOCK GB but if people still enjoy that GingerAle theming look I will stay focused on that! Also willl be releasing a Droid 2 Leak Rom for those of you that might be interested in that as well! Stay Tuned and thank you so much for the support as my name has been spreading across the Android Community as a solid developer for the Droid X!

Thanks Again,

Sean Myers
[Droid X Android Development] yaooitsbrett:
Hello, It's been a while since I flashed a new ROM, I've been running the leaked rooted version of GB when it first came out. So I'm having some issues finding out if my version of GB can be flashed to your ROM. Any help would be appreciated in pointing me to the right direction of running this ROM.
[Droid X Android Development] shukero:
If I were to say anything I would have to say that a rooted GABRIEL update would be nice, but then again I would love to see your new rom with official gb to be asop - ish which woiluld be phonominal! Until the asop would come out I'd stick with the official with root you come up with :)
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
best way to do this would be to either SBF back to 2.2, root it, then install it without having to worry which version of GB your on. However this is the first GB leak which means when you first installed it you installed something called DXGBROOTED from teamblackhat! I worked with that file to create this particular Rom so go ahead and see what your on by going to Settings, About Phone, then checking the software your on currently. If you don;t see it at first, it's gonna start with 4.5.5__. If your on 4.5.573 then your set just install my Rom over it with the instructions I gave. If not go ahead and SBF back, root it on 2.2, and install with DXBG! Hope this helped!

Sean Myers
[Droid X Android Development] Lewcid:
It worked on gingerale beta just fine. I think it has something to do with the way he embedded the app in the rom
[Droid X Android Development] sqlmotoq:
????

Will this work on the rooted GB 596 from Team Blackhat
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
No it will not I've mentioned that multiple times now please read previous posts!

Thanks,

Sean Myers
[Droid X Android Development] tkryan:
Any word on an update?
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
3.0 GingerAle will be ready for release sometime this week keep checking back cause it'll be a surprise time because whenever I give people a certain time I never keep my word so this time I'm just saying sometime early this week. Once p3droid and his team root the OTA not the upgraded version from .595 then I will start working on the new Rom for that. Until then stay tuned!
[Droid X Android Development] timrock:
this is the very first rom that i installed. so forgive me if im asking a stupid question. when this nest update comes out, i can install it the same way i did with this one, i know that, but what about restoring my apps? can i just do a restore from titanium backup?
[Droid X Android Development] jeftep:
The next update will be based on the full system image known as an .SBF file. These files are flashed via your computer, a usb cable, and RSDLite. "SBFing" is thought to be one of the best methods for restoring your phone's operating system.

Once the rom has been flashed, you can restore your apps via Titanium Backup.
[Droid X Android Development] timrock:
ahhhh, ok. got it. hopefully instructions will be included. thanks for the response.
[Droid X Android Development] familydude99:
:(

it says that netflix isnt ready for my device :/
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
Hello everyone! GingerAle 3.0 is now released and available to download in the same section as always. Visit the change log to see what I have done in the final steps of GingerAle! This will be the final build everyone and a big surprise....GTALK YES GTALK is in it. I finally got it to work! Tested it on multiple devices! Looking to get 1,000 downloads in the next 2 weeks! Make it happen everyone!

Thanks for all of your great support,

thank you but its not a matter of getting the app it's a matter of setting the permissions! I get a lot of force closes and when it does open which is rarely it shuts down after clicking something!

ugh, i hatemyself

ok so i saw that there was the updated version, so eager to try it i reinstalled dx bootstrapper and press the bootstrapper button and then boot to recovery and now im stuck in a bootloop and i went to recovery <3e>

can anybody help me from there. plz :(
[Droid X Android Development] familydude99:
nevermind

everytime i factory reset it would still boot loop and when i try to charge it goes into bootloader 30.04 andsays battery low cannot program
[Droid X Android Development] JagoX:
You're only supposed to do an SBF or ROM flash with a decent (if not full) battery...and if you SBF'd then pull the battery, it's best to go to the stock recovery (hold down Power+Home then Search when the exclamation icon shows up) and then do a factory reset.
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
I think u mightve messed up ur phone buddy im not quite sure. Ive never had a problem quite like this. Obviously I've had boot loops from testing my Roms but never to this extent!
[Droid X Android Development] familydude99:
fixed the bootloader

now i need help getting past bootloop. i wipe but it still boot loops i also wipe cache
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
SBF back to 2.3.340! If bootloader says low battery you can go buy a new battery at the verizon store.

I would be happy to try to port it =D I believe that I can do the job, but it will be a few days before I can start
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
email me and we can talk about it

Seanmyers10@gmail.com
[Droid X Android Development] ram130:
Oh I understand then.
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
Thought I'd post here to let you know I'm working on a new ROM! Very close to beta time! Will need a select number of testers beforehand! Email me!
[Droid X Android Development] ram130:
I'm curious what this new rom will entail? :D ..I would like to help test..but for now CM7 4 DX got my interest lol..gonna help them test in a bit.

One thing no one or rom dev have ever fix was Auto Brightness, it works fine brighting up the screen in bright areas but once you go into a dark area it doesn't change it until you lock off the screen and turn it back on..Oh well.
[Droid X Android Development] and1grad:
I'm also having this issue. Wont even let me hard reset.
[Droid X Android Development] chip0:
Just curious, im planning on flashing this rom however i am curious, if im on this rom and later decide to switch to a diff rom or wanna update ota, can i still use dx bootstrapper? Or once i install this will i have to dl d2 bootstrapper?
[Droid X Android Development] syphix:
Haven't seen the question answered before: will this ROM work on non-Verizon X's (i.e., Milestone X's on Cellular South, Alltel, etc.), or will it update the baseband?
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
I do not own any of those phones and have no idea. I'd like to help but I don't think I can with this one!
[Droid X Android Development] infazzdar:
It shouldn't, but your best bet is to make a backup and try it out.
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
hey man how far are you coming with that port to .596??
[Droid X Android Development] jwigley24:
about to root my friends droid x... gonna SBF to 2.2 froyo, then root. can i flash this rom over 2.2 without any issues?
[Droid X Android Development] infazzdar:
I'm currently on vacation but when I he back it'll be as good as gold
[Droid X Android Development] sfreemanoh:
No, it's a GB ROM, so you'll need to be on GB. It was only for the first GB leak version because the dev didn't want to update it.
[Droid X Android Development] Darkness_Invade:
I am using rom manager with clockwork for D2 and it seems to just keep working. i select GA3.0 and go to reboot, it just stays on the rom manager and will not reboot....

BIG NEWS!

Okay everyone. Just incase anyone was wondering what I have been up to lately, I've been keeping quiet about my projects. My main project is what I think you guys will be excited about. GingerAle 4.0... I would take the time to fix bugs and everything on 3.0 and make it 3.5 or whatever but I'm going to just take one big leap here. I've been coming up with ideas on how to makes this a spectacular ROM some of the sneak peaks that I will tell you about are these.

-It will be on the 2 part .596 Build from P3Droid

-It will include more than 1 themed launcher

-It will have new boot animations

-New Boot Logo

-I am going to edit XML's more heavily now to edit progress bar colors and things of that nature

-More Apps Pre-Installed

-Bugless (If possible)

-and VERY VERY VERY fan based...

Which gets me to my very next point...

I'd like to hear from you the things you would like included in this ROM. The theming you'd like to see, the launchers in it, the icons, how far of an extent do you want me to theme it (apps like market, music, etc.).

I'm also coming up with an idea for an Application that you can install on your phone and download my ROM's and Goodies off of. I may need to talk to a very skilled developer about that. I may have a premium version for Betas and things like that, but for now just consider it all being free!

I really want to WOW people with this ROM and to have one of the Best ROMs on GB for the DX. Please leave your suggestions and ideas below and I'm going to get started in a couple of days once I've gathered everyone's ideas!

Thanks,

Sean Myers
[Droid X Android Development] drewski83:
i get error when flashing your rom... i get into default recovery. coming from rooted 2.2.1 n error says whole-signature error and installation aborts.. not sure whats going on.. i know i have root cause after doing full wipe/factory reset n it reboots, it has superuser already installed.. any advice?
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
By Default Recvoery do you mean Clockworkmod??? If so use DX Bootstrap..It will only work with that
[Droid X Android Development] smyers1012:
I need some opinions or else I'm gonna have to do things the way I like them to look and I'm sure thats not what people want me to do!
