Thanks man! I like the clean look too. I'll probably be making lockrings for all different personalities. If anyone has any color preference, let me know and I'll see what I can throw together. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] gotojanoo:
after test 3 flash i did titanium backup for my apps but somehow my all apps shows force close error.I did even restart after backup.Any idea please
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
It'll be nice to have one or two people working in theme stuff too, because I'm not a themer at all, regardless of the things I've done for our ROM already. I suck at theming
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Did you restore any data for system apps?

And before you flashed the ROM, did you wipe everything? (format system, format data, wipe cache and dalvik cache)
[HTC EVO 3D] duble08:
Which one did you flash? The update or the full thing? Have you tried to fix permissions in vc to fix it?
[HTC EVO 3D] gotojanoo:
i did not get it please. you mean missing apps and data from TB? I use option missing apps and data to restore.SHould i use only apps instead of apps and data?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
I'd suggest a full wipe, then reflash the ROM, just to be safe if you've hit threw time to do so. Then restore user apps only
[HTC EVO 3D] gotojanoo:
i did flashed full rom t3 after wiping data,cache and dalvik cache. i think i will try again once i get back from work .I am on 1.50 so i have to use fastboot thats sucks. ::(
[HTC EVO 3D] vanjangles:
Vin,

I flashed 3 of your tweaks from the 4th post. Black weather screen went fine, 5 column app drawer went fine but when I flashed the depaginated scrolling it broke the 5 column tweak. I did 3 seperate recovery sessions wiping cache and dalvik each time. Is there anyway you could zip up the 5 column and depaginated scrolling together?

*EDIT* I just reflashed the 5 column zip and now all is working. Quick question though, is it possible to remove the gray horizontal lines in the app drawer after every 5 rows?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
The depaginated app drawer mod contains a Rosie.apk which is only 4 column, so it overwrote the Rosie.apk modded for 5 column, that's why you had to reflash the 5 column mod again (after the depaginated mod)

AS Far as the grey divider, I thought I had found it last night, made that bar transparent, but it still didn't work. It started getting too late (I had to wake up at 5:45 for work) so I quit for the night. I'll try again tonight to find it
[HTC EVO 3D] vanjangles:
Thank you sir.
[HTC EVO 3D] Techlyfe:
This was just a test to see if I could get it, and I did it! Was having so many issues yesterday trying to create this ring...

Sent from my chopped & screwed EVO3D

viperROM RC2 Test3
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
That looks pretty sweet man
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
No I didn't look into it but the stuff you guys posted was kinda cool!

Download BetterBatteryStats from XDA, there is a thread on it somewhere just search. Great program, use that.

That's kinda cool! Good suggestion!

All of the ones I'm making are made with the same font as the ROM.

Redline on the bottom? I could do that, no problem. What does everyone else think?

LOL, this is true!

You can flash these kinds of mods in the same recovery session. Maybe Vin will be a doll and put together the 5 row app drawer with depaginated mod for you guys :D

BTW, if anyone wants to take some of the lock rings you are seeing in here and make them work with the no bubbles and text mod in RC2T3, it's really easy. Steps:

Go to this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1209493

Download the 2.3.4 Lock Kit

Extract to C:\Lock_Ring_Kit_2.3.4

Take the Idlescreen_Base.apk from RC2T3 and copy it into C:\Lock_Ring_Kit_2.3.4

Rename Idlescreen_Base.apk to Idlescreen_Base1.zip

Move that file into the Working folder (backup the current one first if you want to)

Follow the rest of the directions

I like the carbon fiber one I made, but on the phone, it's hard to see that it's carbon fiber and it just looks black. I gotta try to make it look a little better.
[HTC EVO 3D] Techlyfe:
Now, had you mentioned that yesterday, I might not have pulled some of my dreads out...

Just figured it out a few minutes ago... Yeah, I could have asked, but, I like to figure these things out on my own if it isn't already spelled out for me.
[HTC EVO 3D] thesparky007:
i dont remember awake time but on time was around 14h and display on was around 2h...
[HTC EVO 3D] duble08:
Looks sharp! How'd you take the screenshot with the ring lifted?
[HTC EVO 3D] thesparky007:
using the timer function?
[HTC EVO 3D] TrofeoSC:
I think that Vin is right, the basic ROM should remain "stock looking" and allow the user to flash in any changes they want from the 4th post!
[HTC EVO 3D] guyandhisdog:
Here's the stock lockring if y'all need it

give thanks where appropriate

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17885423&postcount=3
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
I agree, but there will be a few changes like battery percentage and a new lock ring. I don't think that's too much for the stock ROM.

That is also in the lock ring kit as well.
[HTC EVO 3D] foshozee:
Undervolt

I tried reading through the thread but could not find any info on it. I read you undervolted another -25mV to -125mV. I flashed the 100mV zip and everything is stable and wanted to try farther. Is there something in VC that allows me to undervolt more or can you post the -125 mV zip. Thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] thesparky007:
type in vipermod in terminal
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Thanks, sparky. I will get this integrated into vC before Final. Have no fear :)
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Any other reports so far on the RC2 test builds? It's pretty much all done except for a few changes to vC and viperMOD, app optimizations, and some minor theme/graphic work. For people that haven't really said, how is battery life, stability, and smoothness?

Any other things that people would like to see in the base ROM before final release? If so, please post here and also in the Google Code page so we can keep track. I do plan to have a lock ring implemented in the final (likely the Black one I posted before). Does anyone else want "Redline" in the bottom of the lock ring? I kinda like it where it is, but just asking. I'm also thinking of going transparent on the bottom bar of the lockscreen as well, possibly making it darker so that it matches the black ring better. Opinions?

Like I said, I would like some overall feedback, but we are at the point where we can tackle the cosmetics of the ROM. I'm pretty happy with it though, as I'm not much of a cosmetic guy. I do think that Rosie should be left 4 column and paginated stock, how about you guys? Let's hear some final thoughts/opinions on the ROM so I can finish it up!
[HTC EVO 3D] bowser001:
paginated for sure, would prefer 5 row app drawer
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
So you would prefer paginated, not de-paginated? I just wanted to make sure you weren't getting them confused :)
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
I'd say battery life is pretty good....don't u think :P
[HTC EVO 3D] Moricon:
Leave it stock and those of us who want to can flash the mods. That way you are not being asked to make "can you undo this or that" zips.

All of the zips have been good for mods at this point do why mess with it?

You can't make everyone happy so it's not really worth trying. Giving out the great, stable base is all we should be asking for anyway
[HTC EVO 3D] guyandhisdog:
Interesting ...I've had this on another Rom, but right now a first for viperrom.

That white part on the top left of taskbar comes and goes.

Its no big deal at all, but I'm just putting it out there. See pic.

But this is definitely my #1 Rom ever! Battery life has been outstanding
[HTC EVO 3D] thesparky007:
im gonna make you a lockscreen ring for you to use in the next build...

do you want it similar to yours with viperrom on top and redline at the bottom?
[HTC EVO 3D] vanjangles:
I would say do the 5 column app drawer but keep it paginated. I tried depaginated and didn't like it as much, but for having a lot of apps the the 5 column is awesome. Also I would suggest if you do chose to include a cutom lock ring please make a zip for the stock one for anyone who might like it stock. Also, I know you said you weren't going to do the unlocked hotspot because wifi tether worked but would it be a lot of work to include it? I actually prefer the hotspot over wifi tether. If not no big deal, just figured I would ask. Btw, love the updated segoe font. Last but not least the battery life has been very improved from what I have seen, I am in the middle of calibration but through the test releases it has been fantastic so far.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
I think the only other cosmetic change I will make is the viperROM lock ring. Would you guys like me to include all the current mod .zips in the ROM and put them on the sdcard when you flash so you don't have to download it? It will make the ROM downloads bigger, but not the ROM itself.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
I would bet its an app that has a notification widget that's getting messed up. Possible? And you haven't lowered density or flashed a theme have you?
[HTC EVO 3D] thesparky007:
How about this? Redline doesnt show unless the ring is pulled up

any other suggestions?

all the lockrings ive made are in the following folder

http://www.box.net/shared/ditmjj77fl4rq6s1915x
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Yeah that would be good. If you wanna make one that is like the screenshot I took and one with redline on the bottom. I guess the new ROM name has been decided LOL
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Can you post a screenshot? I'm on my phone and the png comes out looking weird LOL
[HTC EVO 3D] thesparky007:
I just made the png, haven't made a lockring yet...
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Ah ok no rush. It's just a big black blob with some red text on the xda app.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
You lazy bastard, open the thread in browser
[HTC EVO 3D] TrofeoSC:
Nice to see that the two of you play so well together!
[HTC EVO 3D] tjmontan:
Vin, will these work with the latest or would they need to be updated? thanks...
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
They need to be updated, I'll work on it tonight

Edit, well the honeycomb battery for 2.3.4 can be found in my battery mods thread (link is in my sig)
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
I'm in class ****nuts, xda app is easier.

But yeah, that ring is pretty cool. Can you make "viper" lowercase and make viperROM one word please?
[HTC EVO 3D] tjmontan:
awesome...I like how your battery options work regardless of theme or other icons..Thanks for the quick response and look forward to the update later..--You, Viper, and many other Devs on this community really are incredibly helpful..Much appreciated!
[HTC EVO 3D] thesparky007:
how about this?

and there are more in this box folder

http://www.box.net/shared/ditmjj77fl4rq6s1915x
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Pretty cool! Love to see a screenshot when you have a sec.
[HTC EVO 3D] thesparky007:
ill try to make the lock ring zip when i get home later tonight and i have an idea to animate it too...

when the lock ring is active or selected the needle will be at the redline when its not and just sitting there it will be at the lowest point
[HTC EVO 3D] sofla2:
That one with the blue outline would be sweet :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Moricon:
That would be cool. Make it just like the undervolt zips.

For me it don't mind the zips. Flashing ain't that hard.

Lockring is cool! I would include the stock zip for the same reason as to not mod it.

Thanks again.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
I would like to put all current mod .zips included to be extracted when flashing the ROM but I'm not sure if people would mind. I mean, the ROM might jump up another 5-20MB, maybe more.
[HTC EVO 3D] Moricon:
Well the ones I have flashed are about 8mb zipped (theme, battery, 5 column, crt removal) so I don't really think it would even be noticed.
[HTC EVO 3D] sofla2:
Those are the three things more important to me than anything and I can tell you that I have not had a single issue in the last 2 builds. I recently started a new job that has required heavy usage of my phone. GPS, e-mail, text, camera and calls. Stability and smoothness has been excellent and battery life has been superb. In fact the only problem I've had was self inflicted (widgets disappearing turned out to be my doing lol)
[HTC EVO 3D] Wadech:
When I try to turn on wifi, it just says error. Any ideas?
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
You have HBOOT 1.5, it's a different procedure for flashing a ROM with a custom kernel. Someone posted how in the thread but it was probably like 20-30 pages ago. Search "recovery" in this thread and you will find the post.
[HTC EVO 3D] Wadech:
Will this hboot version EVER stop vexing me?!?!?!? Thanks for the reply.
[HTC EVO 3D] bigupurself7:
When I installed this ROM, everything went ok, but when google started to download all my old apps automatically half way through it said I did not have enough room. Luckily I had Titanium Backup though. Did anyone else have this problem?
[HTC EVO 3D] aramova:
viperboy: Just switched from an old synergy build that was still using 2.3.3, all I can say is your rom is crazy! 10 hours so far with moderate usage and still at 65% battery, and it's as smooth as can be! Awesome job!

Was curious what you thought about a change to the system. The built in SIP functions only work over Wifi but there is a value you can change to let you use the SIP features on 3G/Wimax.

In the framework-res.apk there is \res\values\bool.xml and it has a key config_sip_wifi_only if you change that to false you can use the SIP/VOIP features any time.

Is this something that would be better off as a .zip flash or perhaps something you can throw in the next build of the ROM?

Thanks again for the awesome work!
[HTC EVO 3D] xavier86:
Im out the game for a day or two.

This is embarrasing but this morning when i got up i went to the bathroom. Well my phone slipped out of my hand, bounced off my leg into the toilet. Nasty.... So i swapped out my wifes old phone that we found when she lost it but im having a little difficulty with revolutionarys soff and stupid me put the urin soaked battery in the phone accidentally now the phone flashes amber and green when its charging. Which is weird because thats the notification of an over heat. Anyway im still going to mess with it at work when i can and then hopefully be able to get back on the bandwagon.

THe error i got with revolutionarys soff version 0.40 is it couldnt reboot into fastboot but the phone was and it quit. I hope that doesnt have anything to do with my issue. I still have the update zip that was required after RC2 was flashed what if i put that right on the root of my SD card and flash it will that give me what i need with SOFF? This phone still has hboot 1.30 on it...

Edit not flash it but let the phone update it with that file
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
That is caused by the damn Market filling up the /cache partition and it doesn't clear out unless you reboot into recovery to clear caches. I thought about adding a script to clear /cache on every boot but then booting always takes a while.

Glad this is working well for you! If that is the only change that needs to be made, I will make it for you. Can you do me a favor? Put it in the viperROM Google Code page or I will forget lol
[HTC EVO 3D] sflg35:
just had my first reboot.

took it down another 50mV from T3 last night. -50 in viperMOD and then stabilize oc. i didnt save the settings, so i think i saw you mention that they will be reset on reboot?

i dont overclock unless you have it overclocking by default.

used it all day. 2hrs on the phone, lots of emails and internet and no problems.

was scrolling through betterbatterystats when it happened.

my battery life doesnt seem to be that great, but i havent been able to complete battery calibration yet. as everytime i gets close to dying, i have to charge it cause im on the phone.

from the screenshots it looks like im getting a lot of awake time, but when i look in betterbatterystats, it only shows 30 mins of awake time.

from some quick math im dropping 10% an hour, 8 hrs on battery with 80% loss.

last night i dropped from 57% to 41%, just sitting on the nightstand.

as for items to be included in the rom:

i wouldnt mind seeing the 5 column app drawer. paginated or depaginated wouldnt matter to me.

i prefer the stock lockring, so i would perfer that but would just flash the stock one if a different one was chosen.

i would also like the stock text back on the lockscreen, but would just change back.

would it be possible to have a 5x5 homescreen or a 6 row 5 column homescreen? that would be awesome!!

as far as stability and smoothness, until this reboot everything had been great.

no problems with anything.

thanks for your hard work!!
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Add unlocked sprint native hotspot to the next release, I modded the necessary files and passed them off to viper a little bit ago
[HTC EVO 3D] PatrickHuey:
I think just a solid black status bar for just the stock rom would look great. I flash Thryus' market theme just for that. I like the plain white icons with a battery icon of my choice. What do you guys think? No themes or anything just the standard. I'm gonna go a little "inception" here, but this is what I'm talking about. Haha.

Also, what about beats audio? It seems like a weird topic and I don't really know how it sounds or if its even worth it?

Evo3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] Moricon:
Why is the unlocked hotspot better than wifi tether now that it's working for our phone?
[HTC EVO 3D] PatrickHuey:
I don't think it really is, just another less App you have to have installed.

Evo3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] overclockxp:
I asked about the horizontally paginated app drawer. Thanks for the answer. It is the only thing I don't like about Sense and thus use ADW is for the horizontally paginated app drawer.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Thanks for the report! The phone doesn't have to die, it can be at a low %, just make sure that you charge til it's sitting at 100% and then delete battery stats (Battery Monitor Widget or BatteryCalibration will do this), let it die or get really low, fully charge and after that (or sometimes the cycle after that) your battery life should be fantastic!

Thanks boss!

I like that, but it's the AOSP-style bar, not Sense. I think should would be too much of a change for the base ROM for most people.

It would just be a "backup" if the other app isn't working.
[HTC EVO 3D] PatrickHuey:
Ah understooood. Maybe Vin could whip something special for me then? ;). Jkjk.

I had another idea, what about a red volume up and down bar? Like when the buttons are presse

Evo3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] Techlyfe:
It's called Skillz! J/k umm, i'm not quite sure myself, I guess right about where the lockring is in my pic, if you do a native screenshot while holding it there, it allows you to still snapshot. Anywhere else, you either sleep the phone or unlock it...
[HTC EVO 3D] riley614:
Having problems with super user

Tried using terminal and got...

Restarted and still won't load su.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Did you restore your apps at all? I wonder if you restored system apps. In any event, Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All > Superuser > Force Stop > Clear Cache > Clear data (some options might be grayed out, don't worry) and try again.

I can tell you it had to be something on your part though. When I test ROMs, I run them stock. I have like 4 apps on my phone now of my usual 180+ so the base ROM is definitely working fine. **** like this happens on TB restores if you restore all and not just user apps and data.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I would encourage people to not use titanium back-up. It's full of problems.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
It's full of problems if you don't know what you're doing ;) it's the perfect tool for me and other power users. If you backup user apps and data and that is all you restore, you're golden. People just hit restore all, I guess and it causes issues like this.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Oh, I never use it. It takes me 30 minutes to fully re-set up my phone after a full wipe, which means wiping the system, data, and cache partitions. I only use like 40 apps lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] riley614:
Cleared data and everything was golden. Not sure what happened. I did use tb, but all I backed up was apps/data. Not system stuff.

Thanks anyways :)

Keep up the good work.
[HTC EVO 3D] duble08:
Hey guys - I've got all those lockrings i put up last night tested and ready to go! You have to apply these mods threw an app called MetaMorph (the one vinch has been talking about for a while). Details are on my post, as well as pics and links to the zips.

Once again, these mods are applied threw an app called MetaMorph, NOT FLASHED THREW RECOVERY.

Enjoy, and let me know what you guys think! I'm open to suggestions. I plan on getting in more detailed theming in the future when i get a chance to sit down for a while and really go at it. :)

Duble08's ViperROM Mods/Themes

And thanks again to Vinchenzop for helping me make this possible!
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
Great job on these....I'm sure we'll all find some use for them....they look great...only thing is they'll only work with the stick skins...they won't install ova say "thyrus skins".....may wanna mention that before people start complaining lol....thanks again....looks great
[HTC EVO 3D] guyandhisdog:
[rant]

Afaik, its just an equalizer setting. People seem to get excited over the "b" icon flashed in startup or shown instead of headphone icon. It's not going to turn the weak little speaker into a 12" woofer. I say gimmick.

On another note, I've noticed some others incorporating voltage mods into "their" Roms.... IDK about everyone else, but I saw it on this viperRom first. Just sayin. So if I change the battery icon and startup animation, can I call the Rom my own? Sheesh [/rant]
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
What other ROMs are using voltage mods? And yes, it was in viperROM first. The exception being I think I saw someone who undervolted their own kernel, but editable voltages started here, big thanks to Cayniarb for that! :)
[HTC EVO 3D] reverepats:
I I.stalled 3 Roms In the last week....(testing of course)...al with custom kernels and eachtime I tried the VC and none had it....also didnt notice it In anyone's OP....seioausly...I would neva go back to setcpu......not as long as I'm running this ROM.....so easy and like I askd vin and he seemed to be right.....I seem to get more stability out of using the VC....WA--ZING!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Viper you have to run Eternity on your phone to understand this. Can you make your ROM as fluid as Eternity's? That ROM is so FLUID. Just navigating through the phone is so nice on that ROM. I don't know what Virus did, but he did something.
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
Just so you all know, I haven't gone to bed yet and I'm supposed to work at 10AM EST... ugh, I don't know what it is but I can't fall asleep. Been working on the app optimizations and I don't think they are going to work the way I wanted them to. I started writing a script for it and bigrushdog came in and saved the day but my idea was to decompile all the apk's and remove all the extra **** from them that don't get used - additional languages and such. The awesome part about the script is that, yes, it takes alot of time to do but then you would never have to do it again and it does the work for you.

What happens though is when removing those files, it borks other files, essentially. And you have to go though and see what caused it and manually add the files back in. Either way, even if this doesn't workout the way I wanted, I still have some further optimizations in mind!
[HTC EVO 3D] -viperboy-:
viperROM seems pretty fluid to me. I mean, I could make it smoother but at the cost of battery life. I would bet that you don't get near the battery life of this ROM with Eternity. I could adjust some settings in the kernel but it really affects battery life.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
No no the battery life on Eternity was amazing when I ran it. I can't explain it, but that ROM is extremely smooth. I have yet to see a ROM as smooth as that one. That's why I ask if it was possible.

I love your ROM nonetheless, but I am simply wondering if it's possible or if you even know how he achieved such fluidity.
