I would like to add that the alternative to this rom is Vanilla Bean. It is basically the froyo brother to this rom. So if you like this rom.but are scared of the radio issue, you can flash the froyo radio and vanilla bean and won't be missing out on a lot.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Spectredroid:
Word.

Word. :D :D :D :D :D

Oh, I agree too.........:cool:
[Thunderbolt Android Development] CBMC:
That is unless you want an expensive pda that won't do data or make calls.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Yea. Definitely do not run a froyo radio with a gingerbread rom. If you want to use froyo, use a froyo radio and froyo rom. If you want to use gingerbread, use the radio and the rom. Mixing and matching is just not good.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] _AI_:
Dude the 4G results in SpeedTest app are horrible.....1.75mb down and 2mb up. I got the usual 16mb+ down and 4mb+ up speeds on the Das BAMF 2.0-5 ROM. However, I love your GingerBean Gingerbread ROM and I'm sure there will be a fix eventually. Yes I am on the Gingerbread radios from the beta on he obligatory radio thread.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
I think the kernel was supposed to fix that...I am not sure, but Im not in a 4g area so I can't tell.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] adizzyx:
I'm ready, everything except the widget background, font done, need a zip
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Ovrclck:
try running the speedtest on your browser, should yield better results.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] _AI_:
Trying that now
[Thunderbolt Android Development] _AI_:
...yeah you can't go there on the mobile browser or it sends you directly to the Android Market page for the app. Anybody know of any newer kernels that might get my good 4G speeds back? I'm pretty sure its the kernels since the newer kernel on Das BAMF 2.0-5 gave me those awesome speeds back....even if the accelorometer was messed up in that one.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Try and reflash imoseyon's latest GB kernel
[Thunderbolt Android Development] _AI_:
Can I have a link plz?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] _AI_:
well that was dumb of me to post....lol sorry
[Thunderbolt Android Development] _AI_:
Ok. I reflashed the 2.5.4test6 kernel and 4G works fine now. I wonder why that is.... perhaps write a warning for those of us with messed up 4G on the OP?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] _AI_:
Never mind. Speeds are low again after the third test. Perhaps something in the ROM?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
I think he posted a more updated version....I may just pull the kernel from BAMF 2.0-5 and see how that fares for ya
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Just updated the battery icon in the Pure gingerbread theme for all of ya
[Thunderbolt Android Development] _AI_:
Thanks. That might help. Just did a few tests in the SpeedTest app AND on Dungeon Defenders online today. I just realized that speeds are random. They could be fast or slow depending on what mood my Thunderbolt is in I guess...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jeremyreger:
good start

I love the AOSP base but its super laggy on my phone at least.

I couldnt get 4G with any radio.

Other than than, I would have kept it.

I'll be back
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Turb0wned:
Man I want to try this so bad... Right when Im about to do it I get scared about bricking my phone lol.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Turb0wned:
I wonder why this rom isn't more talked about?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
I'm not to sure...I've bounced between this and Vanilla Bean about 4 times now...they both have their advantages (netflix vs skype at this point for me)...it needs a kernel update...I think the one on it is slightly buggy and was causing a slight lag (like what someone else pointed out)...its one of those "hidden gems" of the developement forum
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 00negative:
There is only one gingerbread radio out so far?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Edit: 1 for now...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mpfstc:
I can't seem to set one phone or the other as default. Anybody know how?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MrHawaii:
Thanks again for the great work. Everything running smooth. I have been meaning to ask this for awhile, is there anyway to get the cursor thing (sorry don't know what it is called) to be more like stock Gingerbread rather than the HTC style or is it too intergrated into Sense?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Turb0wned:
Very laggy for me also...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
If you are running the kernel that.came with the rom is it undervolted? I've.been running it not undervolted and my phone has no lag at all.

Edit: also, if you haven't already, flash the latest radio posted by chingy. Everything seems to run smoother.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
I'm not sure what cursor your talking about. It may be an.easy fix but I need more info in what you are talking aabout.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] toebee76:
I noticed there is no google navigation included. Whats the easiest way of adding it?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
You mean the navigation app? it should be included...if you are talking about maps, download it from the market
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Coming sometime tomorrow...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MrHawaii:
Sorry, I don't really know what to call it but it is the thing to move the cursor when entering text. Below are screenshots of the different styles.

This is the HTC style that also does the zoom in iPhone style when moving the cursor.

And this is the Gingerbread style. Sorry it is a pic taken of my Droid PRO, I did not root the PRO because it is a work phone. This style is also on CM7 and my Xoom.

Thank you!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Oh yea..... Quick fix man. Will do that now...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
I need to know what Tom/theme you are using. That way, I can just tweak the framework files for that.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Bimmer323:
Man, this Pure GB is looking really good, may have to bite the bullet this weekend and check it out. :D

Thanks for all the work!!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Well wait until at least tonight. I found a bug in the GPS icons that I gotta get in and fix.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] toebee76:
Yes the nav app, strange I didn't have it. Checked md5 and did a full wipe.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Ill take a look and pull it from the rom and post it so you can push.it to your phone.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Did you download maps from the market yet? That may be the cause.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] lrs421:
Can't wait to flash this with new MR2 leak.

Just a question, any way to remove "personalized" from the settings menu?

Thanks again for your hard work!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] toebee76:
Yeah tried that. Don't bother pulling it, I already flashed something else that i'll be sticking with over the weekend. Thanks though.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Well...you can probably remove it. I.will have to look into it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MrHawaii:
Thank you sir. I am just using the plain GB theme. I would love to have it as close to plain Android as possible.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] emplox:
This rom does not work for me (does exactly the same thing Vanilla Bean used to do). When I flash the rom it goes through HTC setup just fine. When i press finish I get a FC and the desktop does not show up (just black). I can use the notification bar to get into settings etc...but cannot do anything other than that. Then when I try to reboot the phone, it freezes and i have to pull the battery. I have never had any issues with any other froyo or GB roms except this one. Any ideas? I really want a stripped GB version, and this is the only option right now.

*EDIT*

I forgot to include that after i do pull the battery and reboot it...it get stuck at the android boot animation and will not boot back into the OS.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] _AI_:
Did the team fix this yet? I'd love a gingerbread radio that was as awesome as the original stock...which gave me 4G wherever it was covered and ALWAYS found 3G.

Other than that I would go back in a heartbeat. Went back to BAMF 2.0-5 and am still using it as a daily driver with the Gingerbread launcher and keyboard......I miss GingerBean......badly
[Thunderbolt Android Development] _AI_:
@emplox this is the kind of situation CWM is for
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
It sounds you didn't wipe when you flashed.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] emplox:
I didn't say i didn't know how to fix it :P I'm already back on a different rom. Yes i did wipe everything in CWM before and after flashing this rom (wipe/cache/dalvik). This exact same thing happened on Vanilla Bean for me. I sent you a logcat a long time ago, but it never really went anywhere. Also, this is a brand new Tbolt...i just got it replaced a couple of weeks ago. I came from the Gingeritis ROM. I don't really understand how this is not happening to others....or is it?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Ohhh yea...I remember.. on this rom, did you flash the gb theme on top of this? I have never had the issues you are having and it's super frustrating.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] _AI_:
When will the beta 5 be out with no 4G problems? Not rushing but I really wanna use it as a dd
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
I ran it beta 4 with no 4g issues. Flash latest kernel and radio.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] emplox:
Are you willing to flash gingeritis and then go back to gingerbean while wiping everything both times in CWM and just see if it happens to you?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] emplox:
No, I did not flash a theme at all. Just the ROM.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
This is so weird...explain to me exactly the steps you took. And have you updated cwr to the latest one?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MrHawaii:
I witnessed this before it seems when flashing from and to a different GB rom CWM does not wipe properly. What I have been doing is flashing to a Froyo ROM wiping of course and then flashing to the desired GB ROM of choice. I started a thread about this but basically just got flamed.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MrHawaii:
I guess devs don't notice because they normally don't flash others ROMs.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
Could someone be kind enough to link me to the latest kernel from imo. The 3.0 version. I keep encountering slow charging wwith the onlh fix being a reboot. Thanks
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
I didn't notice...but I don't see any reason to get ripped up for this...thanks for advise to every other user.

dhemke17, this is probably the most underrated Rom for this phone. Just need to learn about under/over clocking to fix some lag.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] emplox:
This is what i tried last night again...exact steps. My CWM version is 3.1.0.2, which should be the latest as far as i know.

On Gingeritis

-Boot to CWM

-wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik

-flash a das bamf stripped froyo rom (based on MrHawaii's information)

-wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik all again

-reboot

On Das BAMF Stripped

-boot into the OS, and go through regular HTC setup

-reboot into CWM

-wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik

-flash Gingerbean

-wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik again

-reboot

On Gingerbean

-boot into the OS, and go through regular HTC setup

-once i hit 'finish' setup FC's and the background goes black

-the notification bar again was usable, and could get into settings, but can't do anything else

-if i try to reboot the phone by holding power and choosing the option the phone freezes and i have to pull the battery. After that it will never boot back into the OS, just sits at "ANDROID" screen while booting.

Again, this is something i've literally never had happen with any other ROM except VanillaBean. I have flashed just about every single ROM that is out to date. If there is anything I can do to help try to resolve the issue i'll be more than happy to help.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Sounds good, just don't wipe after you flash the rom...I think that's where ur issues are stemming from.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MrHawaii:
Thanks again dhemke, any info on that cursor thing yet.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Oh yea. There is one problem with it. Htc does too and bottom and gb is left and right... I just gottabtweak the images a little bit.... I tossed the stock ones into the system ui and it acts goofey. So a little more tweaking and it will be ready. ....

The screen shot explains it better I think...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MrHawaii:
Ah, I see. Thanks again brudder. You are the man!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] emplox:
I tried this exact same thing again last night, except in this order:

-Boot to CWM

-wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik

-wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik all again

-flash rom

-reboot

Same result.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Thanks man...my suggestion is to reflash the latest kernel and download the android terminal emulator. Then go into that and type:

su

speedtweak.sh

once in the menu, I run the normal setting but I only clock it to 778mHz to save on battery and run the interactiveX governor. I have very minimal lag and everything seems to run very smoothly.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Turb0wned:
Thank you dhemke.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
How'd it work for ya?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dhemke17:
Honestly, I.am at a loss on what to do to help you out..if anyone else has experienced what emplox has and have found a way to fix it, it would be greatly appreciated.

It just sounds like the wipe process is not working fully...the only other idea I have is to go into Rom manager and wipe recovery cache, and select to remove recovery and try to reflash the recovery image. Then go through the steps...I know going through this so many times is probably driving you up a wall but if you want to run this Rom, its worth a shot.
[LG Optimus 2x] mike-o2:
The cross platform MMO Space game which was available for Tegra2 Tablets for a month now, could not be found on the android Market using a Tegra2 Smartphone.

The reason was UI elements which were too small to be viewed/tapped on such a small screen.

However there is a semi official* sideload-version which installs and plays well on a LG2X.

*(I have gotten the link to it from one of the Vendetta website admins.)

The UI still is small, but I think it is well playable.

If you want to try it, download it from here:

VendettaOnline-sideload.apk

Have fun!

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vudiff:
Yes it is on verizon's network. I'm guessing that file isn't doing anything on CDMA phones.

I'm not a dev but I do know my networks. I work for Alcatel-Lucent in which we translate & make the cell cabinet,towers, & customer networks communicate. We are the people that brought you verizons 3g & LTE technology. Currently working on AT&T's UMTS & LTE networks. Yes i am the inside inside man.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeppelinrox:
Yes well in post 5 I pointed out that it also looks for the init.d folder and if not an alternative method by using the data folder.

Has nothing to do with networks.

It has to do with which file or method is used to implement the tweaks depending on what options are available.

I noticed my friends swype keyboard would lag even after restore back to stock.

thus the reason to try this script in the first place.The fasciante is decent lil bugger.

Its too bad I sing its praises on Evo thought, it really kicks butt.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shag_on_e:
It works with the fascinate, I use it constantly, and it doesn't need to be ported, the author stated it should work on nearly any device/ROM setup. Just get Script Manager app from the market, open app, go to settings, browse as root, then run the V6 script. It will give instructions as it runs.

Just ran the script last night, while it took me a while to fidget with it and figure out what option was best for me I can't believe that cm7 could be any smoother but there is a definite difference after running the script, with no lag, or home screen redraw, my phone is as smooth if not smoother at 1GHz.then it was at 1.5GHz before the script...just want to say it was painless easy and really made a huge difference...thanks a lot!

On a side note the battery calibration that was linked in the op does seem to work but I had to figure out when to pull the battery since the original instructions where on the milestone, either way great job and thanks again, I'll run this script after any rom I go to from here on out!
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwshadow:
I ran it last night as well. I cannot really tell a difference. What setting are you running?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efan450:
Option 8 and then option 12, set to browse root, and run as root in the first config screen...afterwords reboot and run option 1...it will tell you if your home screen was easy to kill or not and gives you a list of minfrees...I had to downgrade my busy box to 1.18.2.to get everything working

Edit: I used script manager to run the script and then put the widget on my home screen to easily access it...if you run option 1 and it says your home screen is bullet proof then it did work...I seem to get much better 3g connectivity and better download speeds.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superDel:
It may be a stupid question .. Do i have to check the 3 boxes

backup existing rom

wipe data and cache

wipe dalvik cache

every time i do a update ??

Thks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vibrant0327:
No you do not have to. I only check wipe dalvik which is also optional,but has resulted in better performance for most users here. If you check wipe data and cache then all of your apps will be deleted and you will have to reinstall.

I am also basing this on guessing that you are running CM7, please let me know if that isn't correct.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
You don't "have to" do a backup but it is good to in case something is messed up. I think if you wipe data it wipes your existing apps so I don't do that. But yeah I would definitely wipe dalvik.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paging Dr B:
depends on what rom your are flashing. So with that, let me ask the question. What rom are you flashing? If you're using CM7, those roms can technically be flashed without wiping anything although you may want to wipe the dalvik cache just to play it safe. In doing so you won't need to re-install any apps or enter your account data over again. Some other roms automatically wipe for you. But like others have suggested, you should get into the practice of trying to wipe whenever you can, and use titanium to only restore your apps. Hope that helps.

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bookwalk:
I just purchased a "new" Dell Streak 5 from their Sales dept. I assumed I was buying new as there are none in the Dell outlet store.

When I received it, the inside box was open, could not find the micro SD card to insert and the backplate would not seat properly, so could do nothing more since the backplate would not stay put, so could not charge battery, etc.

Also, the Date of Manufacture said Oct 8, 2010--that's pretty old for a "new" streak, so I am guessing I was sent a Refurbished unit when I ordered a brand new one.

Now, their returns dept is non-functional--since last Wednesday and no indication when it will be back up.

So, I am sitting here stuck with an old, defective, non-functional Streak 5 and probably my last purchase from DELL---EVER!

What is the experience of anyone who has purchased an unlocked Streak 5 directly from DELL in last 6 months--did you get one with DOM that was 8 months or older?
