Getting down with the get down.

Install successful, good job.

Detailed test report sent via PM in a few minutes (when I finish typing it up) - don't want to influence what other testers have to say by posting here right away.

The rest of you guys should do the same, report here if the install is successful, then send your detailed review through PM to CK23.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] _atlien_:
Blue6IX, good idea. I installed successfully. Rebooted a few times to see what would happen. Everything seems fine. Haven't looked at battery life yet. Definitely seems snappier than the stock rom. Details forthcoming. Great work getting this ball rolling!!!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] unclespoon:
+1 install was successful. Seems like the stock ROM with the Sense Launcher removed and Launcher Pro added, but as far as build and install scripts everything worked perfectly! Let me know if you want any details on functionality, but so far everything seems to be working great!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
By the way, this ROM will overwrite your "factory reset" image accessed from the settings menu. When you do a "factory reset" with this mod, it'll bring you back to the way it was when you first installed it, so you don't have to go through the CWM menu to re-install.

Good job CK23, very complete for an alpha release.

Restoring to a previous CWM backup will give you the old "factory reset" image back.

(yes, i've been flashing back and forth to compare)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] _atlien_:
I wanna second this comment. Very complete for an alpha. Great work.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] unclespoon:
Yes it's definitely the most functional, complete ROM that has come out so far!

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
I'm down to test out your rom, if you need more testers that is.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ekoee:
testing out your rom that you uploaded to the development section, but i'm two posts from posting up there so i'll comment here. where would i be able to find the stock font to place back on your rom?

i'm liking it, but the only thing that bothers me is the font as of now.

other than that, good job bro =D.

ok, so, there are apps that are for 2.1+, yet they are not compatible with my phone, even though im on 2.3.5?

My brothers phone (which is really crummy) is 2.1 and even that can install these apps.

Any ideas why?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whereiszack:
I have CM7 (latest nightly build - 97) on my vibrant, and since I last updated after doing a factory reset, I cannot download anything. Well I guess I can download, but everything that downloads has the original file name, but instead of downloading the file, it downloads the file name with a .txt extension. WTF? I can't even download stuff from the market. Any ideas?

Thanks

Edit: I should probably also say that I am using wifi only for data, and it doesn't matter which network I connect to, everything still downloads as .txt files. I've never had a problem until now.

[General Questions and Answers] Shane_b:
Just a basic question really.

I've flashed the above Rom after many happy times with LeeDroid's froyo Rom. However This stock Gingerbread rom seems to be missing quick menu (when i drag down notifications) and no quick way to change to sound/vibrate only as I I expected on a Gingerbread ROM ?

Any clues ?
[LG Optimus Black] aprold:
Hello everybody!

I really feel that now is the time to ask for an expert advice. A week ago I purchased my first Android device and it's Optimus Black.

It came with version V10C and I got it successfully rooted with the help of useful pointers from this page. Next logical step was installing Nova Recovery and backing up my freshly rooted stock ROM before flashing it with Nova 4.5. All without any troubles so far.

Now I've been playing around with it for a couple of days and just stumbled into something that made me thinking of going back to my rooted stock ROM. Temporarily of course, just to see if the problem exists there as well. The specific problem itself is with Monkey Island under ScummVM where there are many errors with picture drawing (please see the attached image) and also audio is missing. Friend's HTC device plays the same without any errors.

Ok, to the question. How can I restore my backed up stock ROM, test the game there and then switch back to Nova 4.5? And by 'how' I mean how can I do it safely without any problems? Do I have to wipe data before both restores? Will there be any trouble from EXT3/EXT4 differences? I presume there will be no problems executing recovery from stock ROM as it was already rooted before backing it up. I have already backed up my current Nova 4.5 setup and I'm ready to hit restore on my first backup. Will it be that simple or is there something that I should know and/or prepare myself for?

Well, that's what I wanted to ask from you. Thank you all in advance!
[LG Optimus Black] aprold:
Status report

I did it. Or should I say I tried to do it? Restoring was a one click job indeed, but getting things straight again not so. After boot I was welcomed with this amusing screen:

====================================================

$$$$$$
$$
$$$$$$ $$$$$$ $$$$$$ $$$$ $$$$$$
$$ $$ $$ $$ $$ $$
$$$$$$ $$ $$ $$$$ $$

L G S E C U R I T Y T E A M !
====================================================

Anyway, this is a thumbs-up guide to KDZ flashing and getting V10E in there was very easy. I suspected that there might be additional trouble compared to V10C but wanted to see it with my own eyes. And I saw that I was unable to repeat my previous rooting success. I also tried several other methods but none worked.

But in the mean time I was lucky to remember why I wanted to go back to stock ROM in the first place. Sadly or luckily Monkey Island did not work there either. However, there was sound this time.

Ok, next step was going back version or two. Three actually, as I wanted to see how V10B behaves. BTW, why it's not recommended to flash older versions? It went very smoothly, like rooting as well. Everything went exactly by the book and there was no need to scratch my head and invent any wheels in the process.

Concerning Monkey Island I should probably contact ScummVM Android port hard working team and see if they have any idea what's going on with it.

UPDATE 8/27/2011:

Newest update with flashable zip is here!!

To get best results, apply this over the Eclipse rom. This will not work on Froyo.

Got tried of the Gingerbread look, I kinda missed a little blur. My biggest pet peve about our devices is that honestly, they are better with light colors because of the display. We don't have an LED display so black is worthless. The darker the themes are, the brighter the screen needs to be for us to see them. (Think of a white screen vs. black screen - white illuminates better.)

I do enjoy a little bit of black though. That being said. Here is my first theme for our Droid x2. This is a metamorph (extremely easy to apply). Still a work in progress, and there are a lot of things that still need to be done. Let me know if you find any bugs or want to suggest something. I'm no photoshop artist, I usually just recolor icons and and add pieces. But nonetheless, it's a good start for a theme.

Instructions:

Unzip and place directory in /SDCARD/AndroidThemes/

Make sure you are rooted and have Metamorph installed

There is a problem with Metamorph, or rather, how Android works. Statusbar is going to force close, keep tapping Force Close, a dialog about framework-apk will appear behind the Force Close dialog asking you to Continue or Cancel. YOU GOTTA BE QUICK!! Tap force close and immediately tap Continue. Like I said, you gotta be quick! Ninja quick! :P

Cool i was starting to feel the same way lol
[Motorola Droid X2] rp076:
I've downloaded the theme & tried flashing it, but when it gets to installing zip, it gets stuck there and just freezes. I've tried twice and still no dice....and I am running the gb eclipse 2.2 rom. Not sure what im doing wrong... :confused: any help would greatly be appreciated
[Motorola Droid X2] 3UR0TR45H:
There is an app in the marketplace called metamorph which can apply themes to rooted phones. I think you need it to flash this.

Sent from my DROID X2
[Motorola Droid X2] Elite49:
Thanks will deff. try this out, I don't have Eclipse rom, waiting for the next big update for that.
[Motorola Droid X2] Elite49:
Ok am currently trying, using metamorph. It's currently not working at all, with FC's. Would be much easier if it was a flash because this looks great.
[Motorola Droid X2] rp076:
That was my problem....thanks
[Motorola Droid X2] rp076:
I got the same problem you did...multiple fc when I applied it so I had to pull the battery. Started my phone again and now I do have the theme on my phone now but I still have the green battery from the eclipse rom. But everything else is blue....:confused:
[Motorola Droid X2] Sandso9:
if you let the notification bar force close it will finish the installation and ask you to reboot and when you reboot your all themed
[Motorola Droid X2] 0vermind:
Yeah. Metamorph is a bit fickle. But what I do is just keep pressing force close. There are two apks it's patching. It should ask you to press continue on framework-apk (that's where the battery icons are). Just keep pressing force close and the continue, it'll work. You gotta be quick though. This is a problem with Metamorph, unfortunately. I'll work on a flashable zip tomorrow. It's past midnight here. I'm tired. lol.

Edit: Check the OP for updated installation instructions. Thanks guys! :)

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jtdc:
Done reading. Just like I predicted, no worthy competition as of now. And very much suited to my requirement. Really awesome product, the competitors presented were Sony Ericsson as well, except for that HTC Chacha which has lower specs.

Of course, no phone is perfect I have 2 complaints:

1. Battery life short. But what to expect on this form factor?

2. The HOME button kinda hard to press. But perhaps this will loosen in time?

Still, I did not regret the purchase, was worth every cent.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] You_Know_Who:
Can you please elaborate on the battery life?

For how many hours does it last and what is your usage like?

Can you also post a mini-review for this phone?

Thanks!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jtdc:
There's a thread about battery life

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1229463

for my feel : it seems after some days of getting the hang of the phone battery life, it looks like if doing nothing with the phone at all sit it standby, it easily reaches 2 days of life and can even go for a few hours more but i doubt it will reach 3 days. however, once normally using the phone like browsing wifi, tinkering, etc. it definitely can only max out in less than 2 days. if doing more browsing and use calls, 3G, in one day or less it likely will finish the charge. if straight wifi internet browsing, i doubt this will reach 7 hours max. perhaps need more cycle charging as phone barely a week old.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] techieinpink:

Thanks sxxorp for the heads up. Was waiting for GSM Arena's review on the Mini Pro. Got tired of waiting for the review so I went ahead and purchased a Mini Pro. I love my new phone and worth every penny.

GSM Arena's review made me more convinced that I made the right decision. But I will now turn off XLoud in my Mini Pro as the reviewer suggested. We'll see if it helps. :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sxxorp:
Never forget, that maybe they had a little bit faulty device in this area, we don't know their version, in addition this can be improved through software upgrade.

Hey guys i need some help . .

my xoom doesnt do anything when i click links or even attempt to download files or install apps from the amazon market .

for example , when i click a link in the browser the screen slightly dims and nothing happens . no matter how long you wait .

if you go to the amazon market app and attempt to install a app the screen will dim and again , nothing happens .

it happened a lot on the stock 3.2 room (rooted with tiamat kernel)

then today i decided to install the "hammerhead" rom and see if that helped but it seems to have possibly made it worse .

any input would be greatly appreciated .
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] el-zilcho:
Enable auto rotate , turn it , and it should act normal .
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
This is a known bug in HC3.2--simple fix though:

All you do when that dimming occurs is to just rotate the Xoom, like from landscape to portrait mode--making sure you have auto-rotate enabled in settings--this forces a redraw of the window that pops-up, giving you a choice of actions...should not be necessary to do it more than once per app that acts up on you. I've heard that Team Tiamat is working on a real fix for this.

Hi

I have a LG p500

I have installed CM7 and francos kernal.

Now once the phone is locked and the screen is off, any button seems to wake it up.

Is there any way of just making it so only the power button does it again?

Sorry if this has been asked before, i have searched and couldn't find anything on it.

Thanks

Chris
[Optimus One, P500, V General] AWDGuy:
Basically it looks like you have to remap the buttons so they have don't have tags WAKE and WAKE_DROPPED.

You can either hack the files as described in this thread: (Sorry, to new to post link, so change the first 2 slashes)

http:\\forums.androidcentral.com/optimus-v-rooting-roms-hacks/96770-mod-remap-your-hardware-keys.html

or use the ButtonRemapper app from the market which is probably easier.

Hope that helps. If so, would appreciate a "thanks" down there ---_|

Hello everyone,

I have a motorola droid 2 global phone with Froyo version 2.2. I would like to install gingerbread, but an original version not a version "cooked."

I am new to this and I have some questions:

'I read that before installing a rom I should make a backup but I do not know how. If I perform this backup I can go back if I regret the gingerbread rom, or rom to install fails?. If you can give me a guide I'll be grateful.

'I need a special rom to my phone or it can be anyone?. If you can give me a link thank you.

-If I install the original gingerbread rom will have all the features or lose some?

-If the installation of the rom fails, I can restore my phone as it was before or I lose it?

In summary, I would like to help me install on my phone original gingerbread.

Thank you and excuse my ignorance on the subject and my bad English.

Greetings.

Try this link. Once you have read through and think you know what you are doing read it again. Buy and install titanium backup, this will only back up your apps and data for them. I believe the guide describes making a full system backup using clockwork recovery. Then you need to find the files for rooted gingerbread. If you are still unsure write back and i will help out if I can.
[Droid 2 Global General] rmancl:
If you want a stock version with no modifications and no root goto this link and follow the instructions in the first post for "FULL STOCK VERSION"

It does require root or any mods to your phone to install.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigoliver:
Hi all,

I rooted my stock UK desire with official gingerbread as I wanted to enable call recording, with "CallRecorder (ROOT ONLY)"

I s-off it, rooted it and installed kernel update_2_6_32.zip

This worked perfect for me (or so I though) recording calls is great, perfect 2way recording, quality perfect.

The trouble is....

The kernel causes the camera to display a white screen rather than the image I want to take a picture of, but the camera still takes the picture fine. Also... (tested on stock browser and skyfire) Youtube, when playing videos only plays the sound and has the same white screen.

I found out on google that this is a kernel problem, probably my new kernel is not designed for gingerbread. When I install other kernels, found here.... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=809328 I can get the camera and youtube working again,but, the call recorder stops working.

Is there any kernel that will allow me to have my call recording and my camera/youtube working? I guess I need some kind of custom kernel for a desire with gingerbread that enables 2 way recording.

If anyone knows of a suitable kernel for this job? I would be very grateful if you could share it with me :) if their is no kernel, will someone kindly work on this?

Thanks alot

How on Earth you concluded that flashing Froyo kernel over Gingerbread rom is a good idea? You have 2.6.35 kernel by snq which is the only GB sense kernel at this moment and it doesn't support call recording.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigoliver:
Im not using the 2.6.35 kernel, I reverted back to kernel update_2_6_32.zip is this not a good idea? Please can someone explain why, my phone seems to run fine in fact a little faster and the battery seems a little better (than before I rooted and changes kernel) plus I have working call recording which is a big plus for me. The only issues I have found is the camera/youtube issue.

Will there be a new kernel released that will fix these issues, or would it be possible for me, a noob, to maybe tweek the kernels 2.6.35 kernel by snq and update_2_6_32.zip to get the best of both?

Cheers,

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erklat:
I know you are not using it as I saw what you did. :D

Point is - you are using GB rom. Which has only one available kernel at this moment. You flashed Froyo kernel over it and hence your camera is not working anymore (and probably some other things aswell, just didn't manifested themselves yet).

Whoa! My droid 3 just did something weird! I started getting screen artifacts that looked like a black terminal and it said something about a BP failure and BP bypass. This a pop up showed up asking if I want to switch to global mode since no cdma tower was available ( I switched to cdma only and it save crazy amounts of battery now). Then my phone rebooted without me making a selection! This has never happened before. I got to see this stuff, but I'm wondering if its cause I installed Log This that I was able to notice anything. What is (a) BP ?

If this is all software related, could the bypass get us escalated priviledges?
