Hello all. Anyone know of a good ROM for the Droid X. I a currently running 2.2.2 Froyo. (2.6.32.9-ge37fac8qgd748@il93lnxdroid09 #2) is the kernel version. Yes my Droid X is rooted using superuser v3.0.4 Thanks
[Droid X General] brettdwagner:
release the fists of iron
[Droid X General] BBEgo:
Liberty 2.0 is a pretty cool ROM. It's Froyo too, so it'd be a fairly easy upgrade.

I've read that while GB ROMs are out for the DX, the wireless tether function is much harder to incorporate. Big Red worked hard on fixing the exploit that allows for wireless tethering, so if you want a ROM that can do that for free, better stick with Froyo ROMs.

My girl has a DX and I put Liberty on for her. She wanted speed, reliability, and tethering.

It runs fast, and it's smooth as silk. Her only complaint is that it's a very masculine-looking Rom - very metallic and yellow. Kinda has a quasi-military look about it. There's nothing cute and iPhoney about Liberty.

I wish the DroidX was as easy to mod as my HTC Incredible. I've been having a blast flashing stuff on my phone for over a year, the the Droid X fought me tooth and nail.

I wish the DX had the ability to run the Sense UI from HTC. I missed Sense a lot while working on that phone.
[Droid X General] gmadez:
Go for MIUI, you won't regret.. :) my wife's favorite.. Makes me wish I had a dx..
[Droid X General] Lofi Goosh:
CM74DX. Best out there.
[Droid X General] arrrghhh:
Agreed, this has no business in the dev section.

OP, take more care next time...
[Droid X General] Nate2:
How about the good old stock ROM?

Advantages:

Largest user base, and by a very large margin.

No work needed to install it.

Automatic OTA updates by Verizon, even while you sleep.

Full technical support crew at Verizon store or via website; no need to hide your phone from them or play games like SBF before bringing your phone to them.

Most app developers test their apps against this ROM.

If something is really wrong with this ROM, very many people will complain.

Camera, video, HDMI output, Netflix, etc. all work fine.

There definitely are much worse ROMs out there that can cause excessive battery drain, cripple hardware features, cause apps to fail, etc.

Hi,

Maybe i am a bit ignorant, but i don't understand why for every rom there's a different kernel. It's not possible to have a universal one?

I'm using Gingercruzt 7.4 but there isn't a kernel for this rom... what am i supose to do?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsaklein:
You dont need other kernel for gc except stock one.....so dont do anythig just enjoy in GC...
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Godra:
Just as it for ROMs. Its better for users to have more choices. And for GC there isnt supported custom kernel ( maybe it will work with LDX or FXP kernel. Not sure). As thoose all custom kernels are still in early stages of development SE stock kernel is still good.

EDIT: @dsaklein you were faster ( so hard to type on X8) :)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsaklein:
Yes it is sometimes....:)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliud:
Yes i know that GC don't need a custom kernel, i just thought it was better to have only one CK, that's all.

I've got an image that is exactly 960x540. I'd like to use it as wallpaper, but the selection box does not allow me to select the entire image. When I view the image on the phone, it fits perfectly, but the darn thing will not allow me to select the entire photo as wallpaper. Instead, it forces me to crop about 50% off the vertical axis. I must be an idiot. In case it matters, I'm running CM7 VALPHA3. I've tried it with both ADW and LauncherPro, but they both yield the same results. I tried it both with wallpaper scrolling enabled and without. Someone please tell me I'm missing something simple!

Thanks in advance.
[HTC EVO 3D] Gumby63:
There's an app called wallpaper wizardrii that let's you set the wallpaper however you want it. I use it and it works perfectly!

Thanks! I'll give it a shot.
[HTC EVO 3D] TechBSwift:
will it let you use any picture without having to crop?
[HTC EVO 3D] Gumby63:
yeah there is an option to set it as the wallpaper exactly how you see it, so no cropping.
[HTC EVO 3D] dwntwnall4u:
Thank you! Work great.
[HTC EVO 3D] netwokz:
The resolution that the phone wants is 1080x960, this is because of wallpaper scrolling, doesn't matter if you use the scrolling or not. So if you resize it to 1080x960 it will use the whole picture without cropping.

Ahhhhhh, that explains it. Knowing that, I can uninstall the above app and just create wallpapers the right size from the beginning. Thanks!

Hi everyone

Having trouble with these commands. I reinstalled Windows the other day and I cant get it set up properly now. It worked perfectly before.

I have installed Android SDK, the platform-tools pack which has ADBWinAPI.dll in it and I have the Java development installed.

Here is what happens when I try to flash a splash screen:

...android-sdk/tools/fastboot flash splash splash1.img

sending 'splash' [750kb] ...

OKAY [ 0.176 s]

writing 'splash' ...

FAILED <remote: partition does not exist!>

finished. total time: 0.0227s

I haven't seen this happen before.

If anybody can give me some advice I would be very grateful.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hopscotchjunkie:
The partition name is 'splash1' (not 'splash'), so if your image is called splash1.img the correct command would be:

fastboot flash splash1 splash1.img

Hello everyone! I would like to install a rom in my x8 but, having no time to test all the roms, and I would like one that is stable, fast, best play and long battery life.

I saw the topic of rom these five that look very interesting:

- Gingercrutz

- GingerDX

- GingerXperia

- Kuyadroid

- MiniCM7

I have read and reread the various topics of the rom, but they seem to be similar, and I do not know which one to choose between these five.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] papatzis:
Hi,

I have no problems connecting to my router via WiFi.

However, after the connection has been made, the searching for other networks does not stop. Scanning stops for about 4 seconds, after which it starts scanning again for about 8 seconds. Then after 4 seconds rest this cycle keeps repeating itself. The connection stays the same all the time, so no problem with that. But to me this seems to me an unnecessary load for the battery.

Is this normal, do other tabs have this too?

How can I stop this scanning after the connection has been made?

At my house I have 2 access points, is possible to force connect in the access point I want by default?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StarLog:
The scanning is normal, because if you were to leave the realm of the first AP, then you have the option to connect to an alternate.

This is not a significant drain on the unit, as it is just listening for other channels available.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neurocutie:
well something about WIFI does drain the battery significantly, at least compared with my WM phone. I can leave wifi on my Diamond on all night and it barely touches the battery, but the same action on my Overcome Gtab chews up a good 20-30% of the battery.

Thanks for the response Starlog...I was researching this same issue as I am a new gs2 owner and android convert due to the crappy 3.5 inch iphone screen. Just hate seeing that search going when I am connected to the only device I will ever use at home. Not worried about using another channel. Hate to say it but it doesn't happen with the iphone. But If you say it's inconsequential, than that is good enough for me. thanks again
