Nice!!! Do we need to delete data & cache if already on .6?
[Motorola Droid X2] pvcdroid:
Wipe and rebuild every version?

Mastafunk,

You have done excellent work on this. I've been on your ROM since v3 w/o init.d tweaks or ADW and am stuck there due to my own laziness. I wish there was a way you could just build an update version from official 2.3.4 instead so we don't have to rebuild our phones with every new ROM version. Maybe I missed something, but from the instructions I have to rebuild the phone every time.
[Motorola Droid X2] AHpatriots37:
It says in instructions that upgrades can be done right over past versions unless otherwise noted

Also link for v7 is still dead, 8 hours feels soooooooo longggg :(

Thanks mastafunk though!
[Motorola Droid X2] pvcdroid:
Oh! Didn't read that. Thanks - Just curious,have you done this with the prior versions without issue?
[Motorola Droid X2] jeffgarret:
Link Deleted
[Motorola Droid X2] xerotix:
anyone flash this yet? i'm a lil scared to since its not from the OP...
[Motorola Droid X2] utahman3431:
I tried but it just went in a boot loop and wouldn't even go back to the recovery...SBF here I come....
[Motorola Droid X2] jeffgarret:
Flashed it over .6 without clearing anything and no issues.
[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
That is why i pulled the link something goes haywire if ya factory reset with this version. Initially i thought it was a bad upload. anyone wanting to try it it will work just fine installed over v.6. Just dont ever factory reset it till i figure out what happened. (You can restore a previous backup or sbf fresh just dont wipe data)

I always download it after i upload a new release and follow my own instructions to avoid making someone else have to SBF on my account..

utahman3431, sorry you had to sbf.
[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
Can you get me a screen shot of the status pulled down..
[Motorola Droid X2] utahman3431:
No worries...I have a nandroid backup to v.6 :)

The first thing I did was a data wipe, so that is probably what caused it...meh no worries...I've had worse ;)
[Motorola Droid X2] xerotix:
sweet, thanks guys
[Motorola Droid X2] utahman3431:
so if I just finished my sbf can I go straight to v.7 without having to install .6? Just don't do a data wipe?
[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
Not in my tests.. youll need to flash six. Boot up setup your google account etc.. then you can flash 7 ... its something in the setup process that is killing a factory reset in 7.
[Motorola Droid X2] jeffgarret:
I removed the link I posted...you knew better when you took it down so I will leave it your way.
[Motorola Droid X2] pdinphx:
I happened to grab 0.7 before jeff took his link down ...

Flash went well and I didn't wipe anything per the newer instructions.

Init.d is gone, however. Is it just the file or is the init.d architecture gone too?

Okay ... I confirmed that init.d functionality remains intact.

Just recreate the init.d folder and copy in your favorite scripts.

[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
Indeed.. sorry it took so long to reply. I have been working on some newer scripts and since people were reporting probs with the old ones i pulled them out.

Just for kicks long-press your home button and tell me what happens?
[Motorola Droid X2] pdinphx:
mastafunk,

After flashing, I noted that certain text (on the keyboard, for example) wasn't showing up, so I tried to get into settings. I couldn't ... it kept force closing.

Then I tried to get into preferences for Go Launcher, and got the same result.

So I wiped and reflashed v0.6 ... am restoring apps now. No sweat, though I am eager to try v0.7.

Incidentally, does this build have HDMI mirroring?

Pj

Phoenix, AZ
[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
My older hdtv has no HDMI so i cannot test, however i did not remove anything pertaining to it. Although i read a excerpt of someones post that said it wasnt for them. Please test and let me know.

EDIT

Could someone who enjoys flashing test something for me?

PM for details
[Motorola Droid X2] utahman3431:
now every time I try to view a contact I get a force close on contact storage...I'll try flashing 7 one more time, but I may just have to go back to 6...

---------- Post added at 06:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:15 PM ----------

Yeah...long press on home button reboots the phone...
[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
bump for v.7a.. check first post...

.7a is cleaned up and very stable so far...

I had to revert the changes i made for the reboot option.. as near as i can tell this sort of mod might take us down the road of having to start patching up the blur stuff to keep it running. Since the goal is to maintain blur and stability, we might not want to go down that route. I will need to do further investigation.
[Motorola Droid X2] Elite49:
So I can flash 7.a over rooted 2.3.4 without being on 6? This is the first release I'm going to use.
[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
correct, but since your first time you will need to install the zip, then wipe data and cache.
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
Using Eclipse Rom right now only thing I do not like is the MIUI camera. I know most of you prefer it sorry for being a noob. Can anyone tell me if motofunk is using the blur camera or the MIUI camera?
[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
Everything is blur except music & gallery, but there is a separate zip if you want those back.
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
Great I will have to give it another try. I tried it when you first put it out and it was good stuff. I just ended going back to 2.3.3 since battery issues but now made it back over to 2.3.4. Felt like I was missing out. Thanks for the reply and all the hard work. Great job on this!

---------- Post added at 09:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 PM ----------

Is the .7 mirror good? I tried to download it now and i asked it to download but it would not?
[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
Link is good as far as i can tell..
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
Sorry mybad noob mistake. I am downloading it now and will give it a try.
[Motorola Droid X2] Elite49:
Downloaded, installed and is working fine.

I will add the Blur Music player back since the update emphasis fixing THAT player. I also added init and speedy v6, flipped storage and build.prop tweaks. I like how even though it's debloated I get the option to freeze anything I want. When I'm done I should have half of the entire phone frozen and running perfect just need to find that post telling me whats safe in 2.3.3 to freeze XD.

Would love to have a ROM where I don't have to wipe data almost everything theirs an update also...
[Motorola Droid X2] Elite49:
Actually I've noticed my signal isn't that great, at least in the Market. I get Connection Timeout all the time.
[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
Well for starters the storage flip/flop and init were already installed. The scripts had been removed cause some people are having issues with them.

I would remove any scripts that you have added and put your build.prop back to stock as it greatly affects how the market works.
[Motorola Droid X2] Elite49:
Reversed the storage, couldn't load stuff into Titanium the way it was lol.

Do you have a stock build.prop? I'll remove all of the init sonic scripts now

I've noticed that some of my apps arn't showing in the app drawer but only under recent. Probably something to do with the scrips or prop.
[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
http://iswarm.net/build.prop

Did you follow install install instructions?
[Motorola Droid X2] Elite49:
Yea, wiped since first install.

Ok seems after deleting the 0vermind scripts and replacing the build.prop all my apps appear in the app drawer still not in market but i'll give it time. I see we just have to wait for a new edited build.prop from naven (if he'll do it) and I'm guessing fixed 0vermind scripts. I'm hopping we can get those, great battery saver.
[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
What apps are you looking for that you arn't getting in market? Ive always run with a stock .prop as i have seen to many issues running with edited ones. I have never had a lack of apps.. This is my first smart phone however. I imagine people coming from other phones look for apps they are used to.
[Motorola Droid X2] Elite49:
I ment as in their on my phone, not showing in market My Apps. The build props for this phone have been great thus far, making it run really smooth when scrolling through lists or home screens (I can tell what it feels like to not run those now lol). I've never had a problem with them until now but thats my own fault using a old version on a different kernel :p.

It seems others are using scripts on 2.3.4. What are they conflicting with exactly?
[Motorola Droid X2] Mr_GreenJeans:
Probably not the scripts. I have had things still b there after uninstall and/or not show up untill I rebooted. This has always corrected the app tray for me. Also make sure they are sorted by alphabetically. With go launcher they would be jumbled after restoring with TiBU, for me anyways. As for the market, go to settings/applications and click manage then all and clear data for market. This should have them showing up for you. The only ones that don't show up for me r system apps and after an update they r there too. Hope this helps.
[Motorola Droid X2] Elite49:
Yep used the Market Doctor. Currently trying to make this thing not so damn slow it's unbearable almost.
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
Not sure what you guys are talking about. Are you guys concerned that market is not showing all of your apps (even non payed)? ? Market sucks in that regard! Never got it to work. USE "OLD MARKET" FOUND IN XDA.
[Motorola Droid X2] Elite49:
Its fixed lol was a Titanium problem nothing more.

Ok heres a list of stuff thats not working or has problems

(be it the rom or the update)

WIFI does not work, just keeps searching for access. (ROM problem?)

Overall unbearable Lag when typing on any keyboard.

Lag in general use, flipping through home screens and lists.

Of couse the battery problem.

I'll give it a couple days and wait for fixes before I migrate back to 2.3.3 which was perfect except the music problems.
[Motorola Droid X2] pdinphx:
Weird. Wifi issues seem to result from flashing over the wrong kernel. You sbf'ed or OTA'ed 2.3.4 and rooted with one-click prior to flashing this ROM?

I noticed initial lag, as well. If you have any scripts in init.d - including the ones that mastafunk included in earlier builds - get rid of them. Many of the older Froyo and Gingerbread tweaks don't play well with this build. Run the ROM naked for a day or two and see what you think ... I've added in a couple of scripts modded to my liking, one by one, and performance seems to have improved a little.

Battery life is awesome, almost without exception. Battery reporting is erratic, granted, but I EASILY get 16+ hours on the BH6X battery, even with moderately heavy use.

Also, when I first restored my TiBu backup from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 (user apps + data), I experienced all sorts of lagging, glitchiness and undesirable behavior. When I installed all my apps (125+) fresh from the Market, everything was peachy.

[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
I had asked you earlier if you followed the instructions... seems maybe you didnt.. the only people with wifi issued never updated to 2.3.4 sbf.
[Motorola Droid X2] Elite49:
lol I did, sbf'd to 2.3.3 and did the 2.3.4 OTA then rooted. Cleared what and when you said too. It goes to connect to wifi then disconnects. Also why do some apps not appear full screen but shrunk down?
[Motorola Droid X2] utahman3431:
OK so just to be extra sure, do I data wipe if going from .6 to .7?
[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
You do not need to.
[Motorola Droid X2] AHpatriots37:
I installed .7a right over .6 and have no wifi problem, no market problems and no lag

It is an amazing ROM and I am getting 35 hours with regular use (email, few calls and internet use). I do have an extended battery though.

Thanks Masta!
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
mastafunk

Thanks for the ROM. I sbf'ed the leak, wiped the big 3, and got up to 6. Flashed 7 (divlik and cache wiped) and now I have a priority voicemail notice 10hr ago. I have no such VM. Used the clear button but it did not clear. Clear button gone now. It just persists. Reboot does nothing. Clear button work for new notices but not this.

I sent myself a vm and it replaced it and it is now clear. So never mind.:o
[Motorola Droid X2] Elite49:
Re-SBF'd to 2.3.4 and now it's all good. Even the stock 2.3.4 was running awesome, must of been something that happened in the OTA when installing.
[Motorola Droid X2] colonel187:
Flashed v.7 over v.6 no issues at all. Awesome rom. I love the cleaned up but still mostly stock builds. Please don't make it crazy with too much stuff.

DX2 Eclipse 1.1
[Motorola Droid X2] demecles:
Definitely this. It's not quite as smooth as Eclipse but it is far more stable and my experience with battery life has been exceptional.
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
I ran many versions of eclipse and love nitro's work it is great. However I agree I do like this version due to the camera and other functions that work better together. I will probably run eclipse again in the future but both roms are great.

Mastafunk you did a great job with this. It runs perfect!
[Motorola Droid X2] Robin M:
+1 on BOTH counts. I enjoyed Eclipse remix, but abandoned that when the 2.3.4 OTA update was pushed.

Mastafunk, this ROM is EXACTLY what I've been looking for. I just loaded v 0.7a and am loving it. I was on stock Moto-Blur 2.3.4. I cleared the Market data and cache, and wiped data/cache/Dalvik before flashing, and it loaded flawlessly. I was surprised to see my custom boot animation had been maintained when the new ROM booted. Before flashing, I backed up my settings to Google, and the Ginger-Funk logged onto my wifi router on it's own as soon as it first booted. Then it automatically downloaded and installed all my apps from the Market - both paid and free. When it finished that, it opened TBU for me, all without me touching a thing. I think that last thing was a coincidence, but still I was impressed!

I also love the enhancements you made - especially the pull-down toggles. I noticed that Navenrobe's 2nd init scripts were gone. I used one or two of them on stock GB 2.3.4, but am going to give this a try without any init-d scripts for several days. I did, however, run Zeppelinrox's V6 Supercharger to make the launcher "hard to kill", and to change the minfree settings to the custom settings that have always given me the best performance with my X2 - even with GB. It appears that the minimum CPU freqs are already set fairly low in 2.3.4 for improved battery performance, so I'm thinking I'm probably not going to be loading back any of the init-d scrips. We'll see.

Thanks so much for all your work on this. I can't wait to see what you do with this ROM next, and the themes you come up with.

---------- Post added at 01:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:53 AM ----------

New post....

Mastafunk, I do have one suggestion for an "optional addition" for this ROM. I use Verizon's Visual Voicemail, and am missing that in this debloated version of Blur. I know I could download the version from the Market and change the build.prop entry to allow that to run. (And I have done that for now.) But the Market version of VVM is not formated for our large screen and not nearly as nice as the Moto-Blur version.

Could you please offer the choice to add back a deodexed version of VVM from stock?

If you don't want to do that, you should change build.prop to allow the lessor market version to run. Here is the edit.....

# true Horizontal VVM is preloaded, not allow to install standalone version of

# VVM from Android Market

# false Horizontal VVM is not preloaded

ro.HorizontalVVM=true <-- Change "true" to "false"
[Motorola Droid X2] pdinphx:
nevermind ...
[Motorola Droid X2] Robin M:
There is no bootanimation.zip file in this ROM, so it will retain whichever one you had before. Not surprised you are having problems if you flashed over Eclipse. The latest versions of Eclipse are far removed from stock GB 2.3.4 for the X2. An SBF to stock 2.3.4 would be your best bet.
[Motorola Droid X2] aricus:
Was the text to voice in here?

I went to use the Text-To-Voice as an input option option after installing this and it wasn't there. Was this taken out? (was it there in the normal X2? I don't remember).

If you guys did remove it is there anyway I can reinstall it like I did with the gallery?

Great job with this

Thanks

[Motorola Droid X2] Robin M:
UOT Kitchen Compatable?

Is Moto-Ginger-Funk compatable with UOT Kitchen? I have a very hard time seeing the numbers on the battery, so I went to the Kitchen and downloaded a zip file that included a different battery theme - the Gingebread one with the battery icon. But when I went to flash it I got an "Error 0" and the script aborted. Notes in UOT Kitchen say when this happens, substitute the

META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary file that came with your ROM for the one in the UOT zip file. But that file did not come with our ROM.

Does anyone have any ideas how to make the UOT zip file flash? Do I need to change some degault settings in UOT when requesting the file? :confused:

Thanks in advance.
[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
In the first post there is a link to a zip that has the two files you will need to upload. Then @ the kitchen be sure to specify amend scripting.. it defaults to edify.

I need testers for .8 . I have done some cleanup and re-signed the system/app's to make themeing those apps possible.

I need to be sure that i didnt miss any and that this doesnt cause any fc's etc. Visually and functionally there is nothing new here just a resign. Once i can verify that everything is working ive got themed versions of settings and dialer etc.. so themes will be looking up.

Until then is the long press home recent apps screen back or is it still soft resetting the phone?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rferrett:
Yeahm Music/Video/Podcasts are fine itr is just call volume through headphones. Having said that the maximum call volume even without heaphones is a little low for my tastes but through a headset is just to quiet to hear.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elvispen:
If you try skype or gtalk and you got big difference its due to the audiochip. Music and other apps got other internal settings inside the audiochip. Thats why I was curious if you got the same trouble with skype.

DONT touch any settings in the hidden service menu until samsung got a proper fix for it. The menu wont work properly with the audiochip of the i9100 and could f*** your device completly.

The audiochip will not be able to reset correctly even on hardreset or reflashing new fw.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ageless Stranger:
The call volume through the headset on the S2 is notoriously quiet, the following will help increase the volume through the headset.

note: Use the menu key->Key input to enter values

1. Open the dialler

2. Dial *#*#197328640#*#*

3. Navigate through the following menus:

(5) Audio

(1) Voice call

(2) Headset

(1) Volume

(1) SRC Speech RX Volume

4. Enter 5100. This sets the maximum level (5) to the maximum volume (100).

5. Use the menu key, and select back six times to navigate back to the dialler.

The headset volume setting is now set to the maximum when the volume toggle switch is set to the maximum.

Note: When the phone is reset or powered off, the firmware will reset these settings back to the default, so you will have to go through this procedure again.

Hope it helps!
