Awesome rom ... try it :) Don't need s-off

Flash radio from first page also ...

3. Minimal removed apps ( maybe with ability to manualy remove a system app but i dont know if that again requires S-OFF ) - System app remover is an option
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asaf400:
why in LeeDroid's rom and and the last submitted rom, there's undervolt?

why does the Rom needs to be undervolt and how does that effect the preformance&stability of the system?

Also What is the best method for saving space ( a2sd+ \ data2whatever \ ...? )
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dzumagos:
ROMs dont need undervolting, they dont need anything...

undervolting is set up in kernel, and it means the processor will work under smaller voltage which leads to better battery life but generally it compromises stability. however they wouldnt set it to a value that would cause trouble, so this is just an info for geeks so that they know that by default the kernel provided with rom undervolts the cpu (some may not like that, as they want for example best performance - overclocking rather than undervolting)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asaf400:
Thanks alot guys, you really helped me!

hopefully the rooting would go as smooth as butter,

i havn't dicided on a rom yet, since all the ones you sent in this thread are looking great!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k3lcior:
Just try all of them and decide yourself. :-)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Parva4:
I also wouldn't recommend that you do the S-Off until you've played with rom's and decided that you really must try a CM7 hboot rom or something. There's plenty can be done with S-On and it gives a degree of safety against bricking the phone. I speak from experience. :( I did however recover mine in the end after much learning but I really wouldn't go S-Off unless / until you understand the dangers associated with it and the somewhat limited benefits to those who know little of Linux or the Android OS.
[Defy General] adkit:
my defy was flashed to rc1,but the battery using is very horribly...

about one hour in stand by mode,battery level from 100% to 94%,

after 6 hours,my defy was shut down...

i have already set the cpu to 25/35/50,300/600/1000

is this normal?

thank you!!!

i hope that all can understand wt i say (my poor english):p
[Defy General] inaem:
What did you do in the 6 hrs.???

If just standby and playing games for less than half and hour.

I think that's weird. It consumes too much battery life.

By the way, I'm using CM7 RC0 nightly 110615

I've tried RC1 first release without flashing the new rom and use the recovery wipe only. I've confronted the phone call problem but the battery life is much better than RC0.
[Defy General] adkit:
UM...I have play a game call shadow guardian one hours i consumes my battery life to 55-60,but in the other 4-5hours,i just use the dictionary for few times

i dont think 4-5hours can consumes 55-60% battery

btw,is this rc1 v1 is better than v2?
[Defy General] wongwaikiet:
with quite a heavy usage,3~4 hours call time,2 hours gaming,3 hours web browsing,cm7 rc1v1 lasted me 30hours,quite sufficient for me cause I charge my phone every night :D
[Defy General] adkit:
omg,now i think RC1V1 is better than V2:mad:

consumes too much battery life is "dislike"

i think that i need to flash rc1v1 again :(
[Defy General] adkit:
any one have the same problem?

please help me!!!

today,20mins consumes 3% in 33%for screen,22% for wifi,17% for standby,6% for system...

thank you!!!

Experiencing same problem. Battery dropped from 70 to 50 instantly
[Defy General] arpith.fbi:
Do battery calibration after charging it to 100% on a newly flashed ROM..

i got 3days 2hrs of battery when my phone started crying at 15% battery remaining..i was on CM7 RC1v1..i m sure RC1v2 is better than v1..many bugs r fixed...
[Defy General] wongwaikiet:
is it the possible problem for the horrible battery drain?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1097703

[Defy General] adkit:
battery calibration?

wt is it?apps?

have any link for dl?

after i wipe my defy and disable the auto brightness,the consumes is "better" than before
[Defy General] arpith.fbi:
battery calibration is an app to wipe the battery stats

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration

u can also do it manually in bootmenu..
[Defy General] adkit:
how to use it?

have any disadvantage??

does every time "after-flash" need to use?
[Defy General] arpith.fbi:
charge ur phone till it says 100%..then click on battery calibration.

well there is no disadvantages.only advantages :)

yes...u need to do it after u flash a ROM..to improve your battery performance

All the best :)
[Defy General] adkit:
thank you=]

but i want to say,i can't dl/find from the market.

have someone can upload it for me?

thank you!!!
[Defy General] F.Ace:
search the word "BATTERY CALIBRATION"

i just installed from market
[Defy General] adkit:
after i use it,

battery 20mins take 4% again=[
[Defy General] arpith.fbi:
well after wiping battery stats it takes time to adjust..

i think its better to update to latest nightly.

i also had this kind of problem..but after updating,this problem was gone..now i get almost 2 hrs per 1% drop :)
[Defy General] adkit:
let u c my battery use.are u same with me?

:eek: latest nightly is 0746:confused:
[Defy General] arpith.fbi:

dint update to latest nightly yet..

check the usage for few more hours and let us know..

This could possibly be the Gingerbread Team Black Hat has been working on but this was tweeted about 20 minutes ago.

As of right now you must buy and download TBH's app in order to flash this to your Charge.

In 48 hours it will be publicly free.

My mistake to TBH for posting the file too soon. I was not aware you were wanting to accumulate some reimbursement from this. My apologies.

@P3Droid

If you have a Droid Charge, you will want to fire up that TBH app, something good in approx 90 mins.

and

@P3Droid

Actually, how about 2 things in 90 mins Charge owners. :)

So we will be seeing something awesome very soon, Gingerbread or not. But it probably is.

Source: https://twitter.com/#!/P3Droid

Here it is.
[Verizon Droid Charge] suzook:
It would be nice, but I wouldnt get your hopes up. It could be anything.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
He actually just confirmed it is Gingerbread. As for the OTHER thing, I have no idea. But this release in 1 hour is Gingerbread.
[Verizon Droid Charge] suzook:
LOL...Just saw his latest post. This is awsome news. Now all we need is GummyBread!!!!!!!!!!! WOOHOO!!!
[Verizon Droid Charge] davpel:
From what I can tell from his Twitter posts, the "two" things are different versions of GB. One bloated, one debloated.

The big question now while waiting for the DL is how we go about installing. Do we need to disable Voodoo first, etc.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Boomwaller:
TBH app?

Hey I tried searching for the TBH app in the market and no luck any help would be sweet as I am dyeing for some GingerBread.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
You have to buy it and its not on the Market.

http://shop.teamblackhat.info/TeamBlackHat-Application-TeamBlackHat-Application.htm

Go there, buy it, download it on your computer, send it to yourself via Gmail, open it up in Gmail on your phone and click the file to install. This method worked perfectly for me. Others didn't.
[Verizon Droid Charge] R3define:
Any word on when this is actually getting released. It said 12 EST and its now 12:32. :(
[Verizon Droid Charge] Boomwaller:
Thanks!

All right will do thanks man!!
[Verizon Droid Charge] pestilent:
Is it just me, or does it seem a bit lame to have to pay for a leak like this?
[Verizon Droid Charge] >DARKMAN<:
So the TBH app works? It doesn't say it supports the charge.

This post brought to you by Voodoo.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
You're not necessarily paying for only this leak. You're supporting the developer and all future leaks and current leaks as well as convenient downloads and information all in one place, aka Team Black Hat Download Manager.
[Verizon Droid Charge] >DARKMAN<:
Your not paying for the leak! Your paying for the app, and what's $2.99 ?

This post brought to you by Voodoo.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
Neither are going to be Voodoo, and this leak that he's releasing will completely wipe and get rid of everything and start fresh with Gingerbread. You don't need to do anything because Odin will do it all for you. These leaked copies are also nonvoodoo, I'm almost 100% positive of that.
[Verizon Droid Charge] suzook:
Yes, unfortunately, we will have to wait for a voodoo kernal. No GB for me till we get that.
[Verizon Droid Charge] davpel:
So we don't need to manually return to RFS file system before flashing this firmware? From what I understand, the firmware is rooted, so it is just a matter of one of our esteemed kernal makers to cook a voodoo version for us, correct?
[Verizon Droid Charge] MrSpohn1:
So how is gingerbread? Can u readily go back to froyo if it doesn't work well?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
It's up for download now via TBH app. Bloated and debloated and with Netflix.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Tornlogic:
I use to have a DroidX, so I purchased TBH's App a long time ago. I have definitely gotten my money's worth, and I'm always very happy and satisfied with his leaks. In fact, on the DX, I have used them as my main everyday ROM with no problems.

It's great to see TBH doing dev for the Charge. Very excited about this.

I've currently got the Debloated download on my phone, but I'm at work and I don't have the tools here to flash it. The admins here really lock the PCs down, and I don't have the app installed to flash my phone. However, when I get home it will be the first thing I do.

I'll post back here my findings, but I'm sure by then, others will have done the same. I won't be home for another 3 hours or so.

Anyway, it's Gingerbread! Don't be too worried about not having voodoo. It might be faster than voodooed Froyo. Time will tell.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
Takes about 6-7 mins to flash via Odin. And Samsung boot logo will flash a few times so just be patient.
[Verizon Droid Charge] latez:
Sorry for the n00bness but is there a specific guide to be used for this installation?

Perhaps a link to an existing thread that covers this? I know the first response would ordinarily be to look but there are a few and they're varied so I'd just like to know which one is the best fit.

thanks
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
Download TBH app.

Download EG2 (Gingerbread) from TBH App

Move EG2 to your computer

Download Odin

Put phone into Download mode

Extract EG2.tar.md5 from EG2 7zip file

Flash EG2.tar.md5 via Odin while phone is in download mode.
[Verizon Droid Charge] davpel:
Any initial thoughts? Have you run Quadrant on it? Is Google Voice working? How are the LTE speeds?

Sorry for all the questions. I too am at work and can't play with this until tonight. I'm dying to get some details!
[Verizon Droid Charge] jeordy:
Agreed. I don't have a Charge, but will be getting one soon. So I have to live vicariously through the details you guys provide until I get mine and can play with it myself. =P

Some tweets that have come through since OP made his post:

@P3Droid

okay so first up on deck, is a way back from Gingerbread, it is a full factory ED2 build, <flash using samsung pst>

@P3Droid

DroidCharge: Factory ED2 - will put you back to stock and immediatly upgrade you to ee4. So if you don't like GB you can go back.

@P3Droid

Just added the netflix, so you can install without having to search for it. :) getting closer now.

@P3Droid

Charge Owners: To skip setup just hit the home button, don't go all the way through the process.

@P3Droid

DroidCharge: You can flash this via Pst (recommended) or Odin, it will wipe data for you, flash from any rom/firmware

@P3Droid

DroidCharge: Battery stats doesn't work on GB, but use status to view you battery left.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
LTE speeds are just as fast as ever. No changes for the worse or better that I can see.

Stock debloated EG2 (Gingerbread) pulled a Quadrant score of 1000. Nothing crazy.

Overall it just feels faster than Froyo. Everything is smoother and snappier. Doesn't hesitate. Hesitates less than it did on Voodoo Froyo.

If you are familiar with dyno charts from testing horsepower of cars, its similar to having a lot more horsepower and torque under the curve but the peak HP/TQ isn't much more. Just more under the curve.
[Verizon Droid Charge] zeuswsu:
Even if we're using the Voodoo kernal currently, we don't need to worry about disabling it correct? Installing this through odin will install over anything we have currently? Or do we need to disable voodoo and then install?

I'm assuming that when you install through odin it overrides everything including the kernal but just wanted to double check.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
You don't need to do anything. I had voodoo and didn't touch anything.

[Verizon Droid Charge] hogowner:
so after you flashed it...did you still have EE4 or did you have to update again..also..after install..if you do have to update to ee4...you are not rooted?? are you
[Verizon Droid Charge] pestilent:
Not sure if the install re-formats your partitions as part of the process. You should probably disable lagfix just to be safe.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
As of right now you must buy and download TBH's app in order to flash this to your Charge.

[Verizon Droid Charge] letsgophillyingeneral:
Thaaat's me :D Also, while normal users at my company have dual core processors, 2GB RAM, 160GB HDD, 32bit XP.. I have a brand new laptop running an i7, 8GB RAM, SSD and 64bit Win7. :cool:

I'm waiting for the debloated package to finish downloading then I'll flash.
[Verizon Droid Charge] davpel:
Thanks for the update. Your impression that GB "just feels faster" is the same one I had when I went from Froyo to GB on my Evo. In fact, I've been telling people for awhile that the upgrade from Froyo to GB was more impactful than when I moved from Eclair to Froyo. That's not a universally held opinion, but I believe it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] smgrimes:
So far running smoothly. Is missing some protected apps from the market.

Like a fool I tried the Eris Market fix (hey it works on most HTC devices!!!) and soft bricked. Back to ODIN for me!
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
This phone will FLY with Voodoo.

After about an hour, the phone seems to be settling itself into full connectivity to the network. It was patchy at first but its good now.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jeordy:
Does your battery indicator work on the top bar? A tweet from TBH said it didn't and that you have to go to status to view the real remaining battery...
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
And let me tell you:

NETFLIX is sooo beautiful!
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
It's just as inaccurate as the stock Froyo battery indicator. Currently I'm at 68% but the battery bar says 80% because it only goes up in 5 increments 20/40/60/80/100%

But it won't drop down to 60% until I'm at or below 60%.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Kamar234:
Syn Ack, where did you get netflix from? I'm running debloated and I don't have it installed and I don't see it in the market.
[Verizon Droid Charge] letsgophillyingeneral:
Just flashed.. setting up the phone now. Praying for better battery life.

From the TBH app... scroll to the bottom.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Kamar234:
Thanks, I guess I was a little bit distracted by the roms at the top haha.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ZeppelinJ0:
How does the battery life look like on this? I've been getting some fairly crappy battery life on mine recently and it's starting to get frustrating

Here's what my battery screen currently looks like under FroYo, notice how I'm already below 20%. It's really annoying because the phone will completely die around 5 JUST after work when I really need it and this is from fairly light usage :\
[Verizon Droid Charge] streetlightman:
i haven't gotten the app yet and i'm curious.. is this ROM rooted? if not would anyone have a guess at how long it would take before it is rooted?
[Verizon Droid Charge] letsgophillyingeneral:
I just installed Absolute System Tools and SU asked for root permissions.. Looks like it's rooted :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
This should give you better battery life. Just keep in mind that this WIPES everything on your phone and you start over. Your contacts and email and stuff will come back when you sign into your Google account. Also make sure to shut your phone off and let it charge ALL of the way to 100% while the phone is off. Then you will have a longer battery.
[Verizon Droid Charge] streetlightman:
awesome! can anyone also confirm is titanium backup is working?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
It is rooted. Quick tip: if you see Superuser in the app tray, then you're more than likely rooted. Unless some doofus decided to download Superuser onto a nonrooted phone, which is pointless.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ZeppelinJ0:
Sweet well that's good news then. The battery on this phone is nuts, I definitely started noticing you need to shut the phone off to get a good charge, and if you're looking to charge off a USB port good freaking luck. This is the first phone I've ever seen die while attached to a charger, just insane!
[Verizon Droid Charge] Syn Ack:
Well when its hooked up to a USB port, its only getting about 0.5Amps while when its connected to a wall, you can get closer to 2Amps, meaning 4 times the charging power and speed. USB wasn't meant to charge very well, just an alternative. And yes I have had my phone die on USB but only when Mobile Hotspot was activated and I was playing Xbox Live off of my phone.... lol
[Verizon Droid Charge] papi92:
No need to disable voodoo or anything just flash in odin. It runs amazing
[Verizon Droid Charge] MrSpohn1:
confirmed... very nice.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Racer447:
Sweet. Thanks to TBH for this!! Running great so far. It installs rooted, but not with voodoo lagfix (maybe not needed now?)
[Verizon Droid Charge] letsgophillyingeneral:
This isn't something unique to the Charge..

Also, my OG Droid died while wirelessly tethering. It's possible, trust me :D
[Verizon Droid Charge] brabe1979:
This is sweet but is anyone having issues getting the market to work when not on wifi? I have a 3G signal and get hit the internet but it just won't load the market?
[Verizon Droid Charge] mbaran:
Is mostly everyone using debloated?
[Verizon Droid Charge] letsgophillyingeneral:
Is it just me or does the stock boot animation look a lot better/smoother than before?
[Verizon Droid Charge] letsgophillyingeneral:
FC the Market and go back in. I had a similar issue but it's been fine since. I think there was a blip in the data network which caused some issue with the Market.
[Verizon Droid Charge] brabe1979:
That is due to no voodoo lag fix
[Verizon Droid Charge] szgeti:
Maybe it's because I only ever used a Nexus One before this and was used to a strictly vanilla experience, but this seems to lack many of the interface tweaks that made Gingerbread such a huge step up in usability. For instance, the change to scrolling bounce behavior, etc. Is this typical of non-Nexus gingerbread builds?

This kind of just feels like a light re-skin with a modified version number and a Netflix hack pushed in.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Kamar234:
letsgophillyingeneral, I noticed that one of the things that imnuts said he was working on was making the starting animation smoother. I forgot how cool it is when it runs normally an noticed it too. I haven't been off of one of his kernels in a while.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Kamar234:
szgeti, a lot of custom skins from manufacturers take out a lot of the visual cues of gingerbread. At least the look of the status bar is the same except for the notification area. HTC pretty much eliminates all traces of gb. One thing I'm surprised about is the elimination of the green service indicators. Those were still in the fascinate gb build. I like the crt screen off animation and the glow of the scrolling bounce, but I guess they are trying to make the ui look as much the same as possible for continuity.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Tornlogic:
Dude, you're right. This isn't gingerbread. This is skinned Froyo or something. Everything that is unique to gingerbread.... isn't in this ROM.

Also, I couldn't get Titanium Backup to work. It says it can't aquire root access. I installed busybox, and still didn't work. Rebooted. Now it works. :)

That's it for now. Main reason why I'm installing this is because I'm looking for stability. I will report back with that as soon as I can test it out.
[Verizon Droid Charge] szgeti:
Unfortunate, because Gingerbread brought a lot of great quality-of-life interface improvements. Besides the Froyo menu bounce being the only thing I really don't like about the phone, at the moment, I was really looking forward to the much-improved battery usage stats screen.

Is this a leak of a developer beta, or a port from another Samsung platform, or what? To be honest, I really want to believe it's not any kind of official, just because it's so very underwhelming.
[Verizon Droid Charge] bunklung:
Qaudrant score?
[Verizon Droid Charge] tsitalon1:
Plan to try this tonight when I get home....but currently I'm confused by the last two posts....

Is this gingerbread or not? Why would the battery stats and screen bounce be different?
[Verizon Droid Charge] letsgophillyingeneral:
No, that's not what I'm referring to. The voodoo lagfix makes the boot animation completely screwed up, yes, but that's not what I'm comparing it to. I'm comparing it to the actual boot animation that isn't glitchy due to voodoo.

It just looks even smoother now. I have no idea :confused: It's probably the crack rock affecting me.

See above. I wasn't comparing it to the Voodoo'd boot animation that glitches out. I was comparing it to the non-Voodoo'd boot animation. I know, thye should be the same, but something on this GB build seems smoother and more fluid. The colors blend better.

Like I said, maybe it's the crack.
[Verizon Droid Charge] burningembers:
Purchased. Installed. LOVING it.

Way way way smoother feeling.

I seriously cannot wait until there's some custom ROMs based off this. This thing is going to FLY.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ZeppelinJ0:
Wait so is this an actual Gingerbread build or a Froyo skinned to look like GB?
[Verizon Droid Charge] hogowner:
As far as quadrant scores......For me, i couldn't care less...That is just me....My phone works great if my score is 1900 or 1000.

Sent from my 4g Verizon Charge!
[Verizon Droid Charge] szgeti:
The battery stats are currently non functional (probably they're working on it, as p3droid tweeted about it) and even still, the screen - like every other that Gingerbread had a finger on - is still the same as its Froyo version. This includes other interface tweaks like the scrolling bounce behavior. When you scroll to the bottom of a list it still bungees Froyo-style, rather than the great Gingerbread behavior of just stopping and glowing. The only thing that looks Gingerbread is the notification bar and pulldown, but they again only seem to be Gingerbread in aesthetics, as they lack GB features like the grey/green connectivity icons.

Lots of minor stuff. Again, maybe this is par for the non-Nexus GB course, I don't know. Maybe it's a Touchwiz thing.
[Verizon Droid Charge] suzook:
Guys...relax! This IS gingerbread. It has touchwiz on it. What did you expect? Let the rom cookers make a nice GB Rom, then you will see the advantage. GIve it a few days.
