When i try to backup from rom manager it boots into recovery and gives me this error:

Please verify you have

ROM Manager v4.4.0.0 or higher

installed.

I can backup from within recovery though and everything else seems fine including restoring old recoveries.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SteveG12543:
Hence why I never use RM for anything lol. Manual is the best way to go.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
+1 to this, maybe they fixed stuff in the update but it has never worked well for me. Only thing I ever use it for is fixing permissions and updating CWM if need be.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cmlusco:
Edit: There was also an update to RM v4.4.0.3 that fixed my issue. All seems well now. Only thing i see not working is the progress bar still displays despite the fact i have it dissabled.
[Thunderbolt General] dfurr88:
If you recently purchased a Thunderbolt ....

You may be in the same boat as me, looking at rooting. Everyone is talking about gingerbread coming to our phones. I haven't seen an OTA as of yet, but it has leaked. located here->

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1225752

Now,

I know that you can root very easy here->

http://revolutionary.io/

and I would play close attention to this video as it provides detailed instructions ->

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-UK_CiB2SYk

:eek:**WAIT**:eek:

Before you dive in, here comes my question.

If you have done your research, there are alot and I mean ALOT of roms to flash for the thunderbolt. :confused:

I would like some feedback as to what rom you have flashed.

This will help anyone new to the thunderbolt party as well as myself.

I have yet to make a decision on rooting or waiting.

:)Your feedback below please. :)

Thank you all in advance :-)

And as ALWAYS,

:DThank you to all the developers who are working there butts off !:D
[Thunderbolt General] nrfitchett4:
I tried out team bamf first, but then they jumped ship to their own forum. So then droidtheory started releasing roms and jumped to him and haven't looked back.

He has a sense and aosp (cm7) version and also dhacker and xpack have released their own versions based off of droidtheory's work.

xpack's senseless rom is very nice. Has the sense base so gps and nfl network work right out of the gate, but no sense (adw launcher instead) so its fast and smooth.
[Thunderbolt General] caspersfi:
+ 1

You can't go wrong with DroidTh3orys ROMS.
[Thunderbolt General] ILMF:
Root. Now. That way you can make your choice when/if GB actually comes. You can always go back to stock unrooted. You may not be able to root with the new OTA.

Roms? Like many things they are a personal choice that no one can make for you. Having flashed them all, I can tell you they have improved dramatically since I got my bolt in May. If you choose to root, do yourself a favor and try several. You will find the Rom that suits your taste and needs.

[Thunderbolt General] thisismalhotra:
I have flashed every possible ROM on my tobolt.

Sense Based: Gingeritis or Cl3anTh3ory

AOSP Based: ShiftAO5P

ofc imo
[Thunderbolt General] Jakobby93:
100% agree with this guy.
[Thunderbolt General] adrynalyne:
Us leaving XDA doesn't change anything about the quality of our roms. Fact is, many of our innovations end up in other roms anyway (ask ihtfp69 and erishasnobattery).

You can find us at teambamf.net, or rootzwiki.com.

There are many roms to choose from out there. Try them all, then decide.
[Thunderbolt General] dfurr88:
Thank you all for your feedback. I made sure to click the Thank You buttons on all of your comments.

Once again thanks for the quick response. will be flashing later on today. :D:D

Im hoping this post may help some new Thunderbolt owners.
[Thunderbolt General] RevosFTS:
For sense based I like synergy but shift aosp is dope

Sent from my tbolt running ShiftAOSP
[Thunderbolt General] Lyondellic:
On what basis do you feel that ShiftAO5P is the best? I am not throwing stones and am just curious what makes this Rom stand out for you? Thanks!
[Thunderbolt General] jbh00jh:
I am using Luquid Gingersense v1.6 and I really like the sense 3.0 and Gingerbread look.
[Thunderbolt General] thisismalhotra:
**Every phone behaves differently just want to add this before anything.

Multiple reasons, first and foremost my phone behaved the best with ShiftAO5P. I had a very smooth running phone and an amazing battery life with all the bells and whistles turned on. I went from 4 am in the morning to almost 6 in the evening without a charge. I am a moderate to heavy user, my battery does not last that long EVER.

2nd, choices with the rom was amazing multiple governers, mulitple kernels you can try them all till you find the best combo.

3rd, support DT is very active on the forum so answers and issues are resolved very fast.
[Thunderbolt General] DRainyDay:
I have flashed almost every Rom for the TB.

My recs are

Sense: DroidTh3orys Sense Rome

AOSP: CM7 or Omfgb for those who like tweaks. TheRom for those who want a vanilla experience.
[Thunderbolt General] Angldvl81:
I'm currently running synergy and i really like it. It works flawlessly on my phone now. I'm considering switching to shift though just to get flash happy

Sent using my thumbs on my SwiftKey X neon keyboard, synergy ran TB.
[Thunderbolt General] Lyondellic:
Thanks for getting back to me on this. I will have to give ShiftAO5P a try.
[Thunderbolt General] Schedonnardus:
I've been running dasBamf Roms for a month now and love them. I am currently on UberBamf PR3. every Tbolt is different, so experiment and see what works best for YOU. After you install each ROM, make a back up of it. That way, if you install one, that you don't like, you can revert.
[Thunderbolt General] onestoploser:
I like a fast, customizable ROM without all the Sense bloat so I use Liquid Thundersense. I've only had this phone for 5 days so I really have no other Thunderbolt ROM to compare it to (I ran Gingeritis for a couple hours and the stock ROM only long enough to download Gingeritis to the device; I just hate Sense lol). As far as it goes though I've owned five Android devices total and have rooted and ran custom ROMs on all of them. Only way to go IMHO.

[Thunderbolt General] dfurr88:
Dumb question, do you keep the camera effects with different roms. I really like the focal effect. Lol
[Thunderbolt General] Schedonnardus:
I can't say for sure, but I just checked mine, and it had all the camera effects in it.
[Thunderbolt General] motorcycle:
They all offer something different. I have tried almost all. It's hit and miss. What works for me might not work for you. Keep flashing you will find your liking.

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] nanodroid:
Hi guys,

I just thought in sharing this, I found this cool app on market,check it out! It has some bugs,but the one who made it has done a good job!

Check this shots..
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] iVolcaNoz:
is it free?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] aimcr7:
Free i think cause its lite version.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] nanodroid:
Yeah it's free,but you will get ads,(disable your data connection and you won't get them :P)

I find it a bit hard to click on start menu and the back and forward arrows,but after all I think this is awesome! Even the search function on start menu works!
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] alexs790:
The magnificent app. But free version have less functionality. Paid version too expensive.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] angeloops:
looks gd!!!!!!!!!! but paid app is expensive!
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] nanodroid:
Well to be expensive is understandable after an amazing work. Still, i think a pound less will be good to pay. I would like to try that n a tablet!
[HTC EVO 3D] Onyoursix:
Hi, I'm playing around w/ a rom I'm making and I'm really new to this, but I can't for the life of me find where the stock bookmarks are stored so I can change them. I've gone through a lot of files and google/forum searches and haven't found them. I know on the Nexus S they are in a array.xml file that is inside the Browser.apk. If anyone knows where to change the bookmarks for the 3vo stock browser please let me know =)

Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
Had same issue..go into your browser and press menu..there should be a tab for bookmarks..you can edit from there..also if your on a page you would like to bookmark press menu and add bookmark
[HTC EVO 3D] gmfeny:
I think he means when he building his own Rom so when he flashes the ROM the bookmarks will already be there saved in the ROM
[HTC EVO 3D] studog712:
Would love to know this. Seems to be a crap shoot for me when I flash a ROM these days. Sometimes the google backup will restore my bookmarks sometimes it won't.
[HTC EVO 3D] vanisleguy1976:
I can't be sure where the file is that the bookmarks are stored, but I can tell you that Titanium Backup will restore all your bookmarks if you restore the bookmark data (yeah, google seems to only sometimes restore)

TB > Backup/Restore > [BOOKMARKS] Browser 2.3.4 > Restore > Data Only

That works for me every time! Hope this helps :)

Love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we will change the world
[HTC EVO 3D] Onyoursix:
Yes sorry I wasn't very clear this is exactly what I'm looking for. Anyone know?

Thanks!
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blehman:
I'm having a rather odd problem with my wife's Slide. She was running an older CM7 rom and was having a problem getting the screen to lock. When you press the power button, it would act as if it is going to lock, the screen would go black, but then it brought up the recent programs. Simple problem I though... I downloaded CM7 and got ready to flash it, but over time her SD card has had things deleted and I wasn't able to get to recovery. I loaded the esprimg.zip onto her card thinking that was all I needed to load, but that forced us back to a stock ROM. No worries there, she doesn't care if she has an unrooted stock phone, or CM6 or 7, and I guess I will never have to hear her say the rooted ROM is ruining her phone.

So, now we are stock and the problem still exists. The screen will not lock when using the power button, nor will it lock when it times out. I put the pattern lock on, and still it will not lock, although it will load the pattern lock screen. I've rebooted a couple of times to no avail, and the phone is as stock as can be, no bells or whistles, no strange apps, actually the only market app on the phone is Words with Friends. Has anyone run across this issue, or know of maybe a third party screen lock app that I could try?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jovalleau:
I've searched for this, but can only find someone related topics for other phones/OSs.

I had to have my Touch Pro 2 (Sprint) replaced, so now I'm running WinMo6.5 with Sense UI 2.5.x. I backed up all my PIM data with PIMBackup (or whatever the program is called). Since I've gotten it, however, all of my text conversations are wonky.

In HTC's text manager, in any given conversation, all of my messages are at the top of the conversation, and all of the other person's messages are at the bottom This can make longer conversations, and past conversations very confusing.

Does anyone know of this error, or of a good fix for it? Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mawoods75:
I've had the same issue before, after flashing a new ROM and enabling the HTC messaging before I restored my PIM file. Are you using a Stock or Custom ROM? If custom, there is a good chance you have Arcsoft messaging installed (if not, you can download it - just search XDA for a cab).

I would delete all messages, enable/install Arcsoft messaging, soft-reset, then restore your messages from your PIM backup file. That may not fix it, but it's worth a shot.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jovalleau:
Stock ROM, and yes, I did load the PIM backup after loading HTC messaging for the first time. I deleted most of the old messages (that copied over the 2016/17 bug, somehow...), installed another SMS fix for the message order, and tested it with a few friends back and forth. Seems to be working now.

I also found and installed an Overclocking program, and now this bad boy is twice as fast!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffgman:
I am running the OTA leak rom from Incubus and have made a few changes to the SystemUI.apk file via the UOT kitchen. I see an option for Overscroll Glow and was wondering if anybody could explain to me what that is?

Thanks,

Jeff
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete_kowalski83:
Open your app drawer and scroll to the end, you see the glow. It's basically to let you know there's nothing left to scroll to
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffgman:
Thank you. I don't have any glow at the end, but that is probably because I have not done the mod yet via the kitchen.

Jeff
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2776902:
Basically looks like this

HTC Sense ROM's don't have the overscroll glow, I guess HTC didn't like it or something. But it's easily added back.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pete_kowalski83:
Interesting, I guess I didn't ever notice that until now, I mean sense not having it
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wildstang83:
Actually all HTC Sense GB roms did have the overscroll. HTC has just simply changed the color to indexed black so it would be hidden.

BTW, for those people curious of the location of the overscroll glow:

Extract framework-res.apk and navigate to framework-res\res\drawable-hdpi.

Look for these two images: overscroll_edge.png and overscroll_glow.png. Thats the overscroll images. Also look at any of these new OTA GB roms and you'll see what I mean by HTC has blacked them out. How do we remedy this? Using a program such as gimp, open the image and change it from indexed mode to rgb and then just change the hue to whatever you like.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hand76:
To be honest I added it in through the UTO Kitchen and wasn't crazy about it. :p Went back to not using it for now.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffgman:
I put it in via UOT also, and so far I kind of like it. I am going to stick with it for a bit. Thanks for all of the help.
[Android Apps and Games] tombarr:
Roughly three weeks ago I decided to take the user interface library I was working on for Android to the next level in the form of The Seven+ Project. Myself, along with a number of other talented developers, are working on a suite of applications for Android using this user interface. Ultimately we are working to have this suite efficient, fluid, and interconnected. Do continue to check in on these applications as more features get added and bugs get fixed. We are always looking for feedback and bug reports. So check out our applications and our website and let us know what you think!

Unlike past initiatives we are a cooperative organization composed of independent developers, who, when using our using interface retain complete control over their applications. We are also about more than just copying; the PLUS in Seven+ is all about adding more features, customizations, and more.

Also a note to developers: we are looking for skilled developers that have made applications previously and want to adapt them using our user interface. Pretty much any standard application is fair game, so whether you have an email, calendar, set of widgets, or something else, if you want to make an application using our please contact us.

Links to a few of our applications:

- Launcher 7 by Timo Kujala

- Seven+ Calculator by Thomas Barrasso

- WP7Lock by Sami Musallam

- ZPlayer by Temitayo Odesanmi

- StatusBar+ by Thomas Barrasso

- Messaging7 by Omkar Deshmukh

Also follow us on Twitter, Google+, and check out sevenplusandroid.org.
[Android Apps and Games] xriderx66:
Looks GREAT so far. I'm a fan of WP7-styled apps and I think this is a great project.

Thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] dodgersrgood:
Haha ok so I don't know if you have any idea if what's going on but I downloaded the lockscreen to check it out (pretty cool btw) but went back to widgetlocker and everytime I press the home button it comes up with all my home apps and then I select one and I set it as default then when I launch a diff app and press home the ssame thing pops up. Its like the defaults keep getting cleared for some reason. Any idea what's going on?
[Android Apps and Games] HearthC0re:
In which way are you affiliated with the guys of WP7Android.com ?
[Android Apps and Games] tombarr:
@HearthC0re The closest thing to an affiliation is that some of the developers (notably those of ZPlayer and WP7Lock) are now part of our project. We are a collaborative organization of independent developers using a common user interface library that will hopefully make its way into a number of applications.

@dodgersrgood I suggest you send Sami Musallam an email as he is the developer of WP7Lock. His email is sami.musallam7@gmail.com.

@xriderx66 Thanks, glad to hear it!
[Android Apps and Games] do0b:
looks like an interesting project. keep it up
[Android Apps and Games] SimianJones:
i think that you ought to offer a free version of your UI demo so that you can build some momentum support for your project. I think the windows phone UI is great and I would like to see it thuroughly baked into a rom, not just sitting on top of cm7 or something. Keep up the great work and I would encourage you to keep the community up to date with developments.

Also, there are some grammatical problems with your website.

Good luck!
[Android Apps and Games] tombarr:
@SimianJones I am not too sure about a ROM as we have neither a developer who knows where to begin, nor the honest desire. The problem with a ROM is that it would reach so many less people and require that one be built for each and every device. The UI I am building uses the Android SDK and is designed to work well with any application. While a ROM would be nice, it would have to be in the distant future when the UI is more mature, bug free, and when we find an interest in building a ROM.

Phew, that is enough of that. As far as updates, will do. We have/ are working on a better blog, our Twitter, mailing list, and more to keep those interested up-to-date.
[Android Apps and Games] iynfynity:
I like the launcher but how do you add more homescreen?
[Android Apps and Games] scottjb:
I tried out the launcher and I like it. It does pose some problems with larger widgets. The launcher gives size options of one or two tiles. This squeezes 4 by x widgets making them harder, sometimes impossible, to use. For example, I can use BeWeather by using a larger font size in that widget's settings. I cannot use PocketBreeze because it cuts off the top of the widget and makes everything too small to see or tap, even with the large font.

I also noticed Launcher 7 pretty high on my list of app using the battery. I don't recall seeing my launcher high on the list, if at all. This is with a custom AOSP ROM, Gingerbread Deck.

This looks promising. :)
[Android Apps and Games] vertig:
This looks like a great project. Keep up the good work :)
[Android Apps and Games] tombarr:
@Vertig Thank you!

@scottjb The developer of Launcher 7, Timo Kujala is aware of most of your concerns and working to fix them. With each update he hopes to use less memory and battery. He has also told me that he is working on a way of fixing widget sizing and such, but I am not sure how. Just pay attention to the updates and if possible purchase the donate version which gets updates earlier.

- Tom
[Android Apps and Games] antonio1475:
I just discovered that you all merged in this sevenplusnadroid project. Really nice to read. I eventually bought Launcher7 Donate 2 days ago so I could have latest update after using Free for a while.

Besides, I have battery drains and reading Launcher7 posts, some say it is, so I guess I found the culprit... but I won't stop using it :P (I made my own full WP7-style themed ROM including MMS, Notes, WhatsApp, Camera, Phone, Contacts and Calendar, although just themed them of course, so also installed Launcher7 and won't let it go).

Anyway, really waiting for the rest of your WP7 apps!! And you have my help here, although I think you all know much more!

:)
[Android Apps and Games] Rican Bx Bomba:
Great idea! with the Boot Manger App thats out. I'm going to do this. Which rom did you use as a base?
[Android Apps and Games] antonio1475:
Most probably, we don't have the same phone, since this isn't a specific phone's thread. Mine is a LG Optimus Black with NOVA ROM → WP7 Style :D

Just get any ROM you want and spend days and days theming it ;)

I even made a WP7 keyboard (which looks MUCH more real and gorgeous than those "android wp7 keyboards and keyboard themes" that are published. But it's based in a paid app so...

:)

[Android Apps and Games] tombarr:
Certainly looking for a developer who would want to work on a contacts application, but none is in the works currently.
[Android Apps and Games] scottspa74:
This looks awesome. Very excited about this project. Played with launcher7 a bit

Thanks to everyone working on this.
[Android Apps and Games] anon768:
Hey, great project.

But I'd like to request something.

Something, that every theme and project to resemble the Windows Phone 7 style.

A decent SMS app.

The only thing I found that resembled the style pretty good is this theme for MIUI:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1174126

which also themes the SMS app.

But, well, you need MIUI for it.

So, please, consider doing a nice SMS app in the style of WP7. We really need it.
[Android Apps and Games] || Acer ||:
This looks really promising. I hope that you or other developers will accomplish a lot with the "replaced Statusbar" idea.

I'm sure you could make an iPhone UI if you really wanted to (just as an example)

Hope this turns out well!
[Android Apps and Games] twistedelegance:
For those interested, there are 3 great apps on the market:

- Messaging Metro Beta, which copies exactly the sms of WP7 but it's a Beta and still bugs a bit and currently does not support MMS

- WP7 Contact, an app for contacts which is very good but also bugs when modifying a contact and social links are not implemented

- Photo Safari is a gallery replacement which is not bad at all!

Finally CLAVIER A.I.type has a built in WP7 theme which looks great and it is higly customizable!
[Android Apps and Games] vertig:
What is Clavier?
[Android Apps and Games] twistedelegance:
Clavier is "Keyboard" in french ;)
[Android Apps and Games] SunLikeStar:
Every thing is good except a paranoid guy like me cannot keep apps with so many permissions for long :(
[Android Apps and Games] m.ark:
Don't use photo safari. It puts ads in your notification bar. That alone is bad enough to warrant a "do not download".
[Android Apps and Games] twistedelegance:
I do not have any ads with photo saphari...
[Android Apps and Games] m.ark:
I'm calling BS. I just re-downloaded the app, and less than 30 seconds later, I get a nice ad for Visa in my notification bar. Try downloading the f ree version and then scanning your device with "AirPush Detector". It will find PhotoSafari immediately.

DO NOT DOWNLOAD PHOTOSAFARI!
[Android Apps and Games] vertig:
That's why I dumped it. I don't mind supporting free apps with ads, but the notification bar ad is a bit much for my liking. So far Seven+ has some good app concepts, and I'm looking forward to trying out what they produce.
