[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
no sir, i didnt touch the gps. mine works flawlessly. maybe u need some more time with the rom???? i duno man.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmcsc:
My GPS works fine... except when battery is critical, but that's a system protection thing, I think.

Talking about batteries... I got my Seidio Innocell 3500 mAh extended battery yesterday. It's amazing. Yes, the phone is really thick, heavier, and (to me, at least) a bit more difficult to type on (the way you hold the phone in itself feels... changed).

But the battery life... the battery life! Amazing. No other word. Today I've listened to streaming music, played different games (battery-consuming Temple Run included), texted, called... well, pretty much everything I would normally do. The battery should've been dead by now (if JuiceDefender wasn't on; if it was, it could last some 4 more hours).

But this... wow!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmcsc:
I guess there won't be any new updates for this, right?

A sad day.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chongox:
I don't see what OP can do to optimize this.

without any doubt this is the best ROM

rmcsc what do you think is missing?

now when ICS is out if he want to try to cook a slim version ....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crestofawave:
@chongox He did, but it also came to it's end.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmcsc:
Well, s14mc himself is missing, that's one thing I'm certain of.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ChpStcksRlz:
Well the thing is, it's all about those ICS roms now. Even though they're so buggy, they're what popular with the G2 now.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mrbmg:
I know! I really hate the craze because none of them are stable to me. I understand they are all under development and can't be completed without testing but everyone has one now and that's all they talk about. There is still so much room for upgrading and updating existing roms on gingerbread, but I guess they all want to be the first to have that perfect working ics rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmcsc:
You know, after a year and a half of flashing ROMs, I have to day this was BY FAR my favorite. Sure, ICS ROMs provide you with the newest things but, damn, this beats them all.

I've now moved on to a Galaxy Nexus, so I won't be here often. It's been a fun ride.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
Thx for the props man, I haven't left the scene. I'm still here, jus a lot more work and girl problems keep me away. Sry to c u go man, u been one of the best troubleshooters/supporters this whole time. Lata homie!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xdadidida:
Hi thanks for all the work on this. I went straight to this from stock (after wiping out s-on/cid/loader locks of course) and flashed the radio. I wasn't getting any GPS though until flashing the matching ril/gps files from this thread, as mentioned in the radio link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1335127

Might want to update the first post with that. Specifically this part:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kbeezie:
EliteMod has been stable and fast for me.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmcsc:
Don't worry. As soon as I get my G2 returned (temporary loan to my mother) I could be here a bit more often. Sadly, there's not many users running around with questions anymore, but, hey. If you get around to release another ROM for the G2, hit me up.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
How u like the gnexus? I was thinkin bout pickin one up, u on tmobile, how's the 4g? or maybe a galaxy note.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chongox:
are you thinking on the galaxy note? cool another reason to get one !!1! :fingers-crossed:

I would finish my contract on 3 months and that's the one that look more interesting,

is quite big, but since the last thing i do with my phone is phone calls maybe is not that much of a trouble

pd: I been using some ICS you know chrome browser and stuff and the mimicry is quite good,

but at the end of the day the battery life of your rom and the lack of ICS drivers still an issue.

would be nice to know what you can do after the drivers are out,

but by them probably, you already move on to another phone lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
I picked up a galaxy nexus. Its been fun guys!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmcsc:
OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG. GNex Jelly Slim plz?!?!?!1
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
i already saw a slim rom over in the gnexus forums. 4.1.1 is the **** man, i duno if i even need to mod it at all, ima screw with the nexus for a week or two and see how it goes
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rkwhyte2:
+1 Would love to see what you can do with JB just got my GNex last week. Dang this thing is big but man is it nice.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chongox:
since the original post, there is some new radios

Im in uk, any recommendation ?

Many thanks to everyone
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
i used the 4.19 radio because it was packed with the ROM when it went OTA. The 4.19 radio is for tmo usa, try out the other radios for your area in the radio thread. the worse that can happen is no/weak signal and/or massive battery loss.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kbeezie:
I'm debating trying to get your G2Lite rom working for this method:

[GUIDE] Booting an Android System when only Recovery is at your disposal

While I did get it to boot with CM7, wifi don't work, and I think for 'diagnostic' purposes something like this stock G2Lite would be great (I think the main problem is whatever rom gets loaded off the SD by recovery conflicts with the recovery's kernel version when it comes to things like the Wifi driver, note my latest replies there with attached videos).

In your opinion how feasible do you think it would be for that purpose? an absolute no-bloat rom sitting on the SD card that you could boot from recovery in case your phone stops working (i.e.: maybe bad emmc) or for other quick purposes to tide you over.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Hahutzy:
Is this ROM's performance significant enough to switch from Virtuous G-Lite..?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
try it out! isnt that the great part of having an android cell? test run it for a week and if u dont like it, change back

im so glad i bought a g2, we have massive dev support. guess im not the only one that doesnt want to give up a keyboard just yet.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dietotherhythm:
I refuse to give up the keyboard. It's weird though, everyone I know who has started on a keyboard android sticks to it, then everyone who started on a touch sticks with touch.

back on topic though, I've been running this rom for the last 2 nights. Gotta say it's pretty smooth on anything that requires 3d. Really nice job!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
haha my fingers are too big for on screen keyboard. i was thinkin about gettin the new nexus because of the 4.6 inch screen. but i still like the physical keyboard, i can type without looking all day. try to do that with an on screen keyboard.

thx for trying out my rom man, and for the props!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bleedingthru:
can i use a custom kernal with this rom ?? what about gapps ??
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mike102871:
How do you apply the splash screen images that were posted. Not talking about the battery dial.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
A custom kernal can be used , but will most likely break something like wifi or camera. I haven't tried any yet. I'm at work, so I can't for a while. if u mind experimenting and leaving some feedback, that would be great

The market is included in the rom, so the rest of the gapps can be downloaded thru there.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
Pershoot will NOT work

Im not sure about ILWT
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
None of the AOSP kernels will work on a stock ROM. Although it may LOOK like legit AOSP, it's got a lot of HTCs stuff baked in. You'd need to compile your own kernel from HTC's source to get it to work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ddk19:
Nothing special @ all in battery life. Just a stock GB rom ....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
If you mean the hot girl or the way cool HTC logo screen I posted (either will replace your splash screen, which is the white screen with the crappy green HTC logo) follow the instructions here and BE CAREFUL with the dd command, use copy and paste, cause dd can brick your phone if you are drinking or just not paying attention to what you are doing!

You can actually have both screens come up if you use one of them as your boot animation (that's how I did mine!)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Ditamae:
Safest way is to use fastboot.... simply put the proper splash1.img in your platform-tools folder and use these commands:

fastboot flash splash1 <path to file>splash1.img
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] vogiel:
I have a problem with the APN-Access Point Names.

I don't have the internet and mms settings.

In the other rom's it's automaticly downloading.

Could you do this rom with a browser from htc sense, it's better I think.

I install browser.apk of htc sense rom, from zip file, but does not install anything like that.

And i propose "quick settings" from rom sense it's use full

And maybe in the lock screen music player ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MERKJONES:
Does this have the fix for MMS.apk where all MMS' were showing up as slideshows? I remember TMO released the G2 with that problem and I don't think they ever fixed it.

Also: Ability to have notifications play through music / not vibrate on the call? I didn't know if that was specifically a CM feature or not.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
this is because it doesn't have that super deep-sleep (underclocked, undervolted) mode of G-Lite, which actually makes your phone cold to the touch! :eek:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
im looking into the mms slideshow bug, it is in this ROM. im goin to release G2slim v1.1 soon with a fix, and with updated apps
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
updated ROM

V1.1

-updated market 3.3.11

-updated superuser 3.0.7

-updated music app 4.0.9.509

-removed old music app

-stop the ability to recieve future OTA (thanks WTF?)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ra990:
I'd recommend that the Google Talk app be put back in because it isn't in the market so there is no way to download it (as far as I know).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
Yep I can add it back in v1.2, which will be out soon. I've had the week off so I've been messing with my phone a ton. I listened to the forum so I deodex/zipaligned the rom.

I'm testing 1.2 now, it seems faster
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
Updated ROM

1.2

-deodexed

-zipaligned

-removed tell HTC//provide feedback

-removed silent HTC report agent, service and process

(what were they reporting?)

-faster

-slimmed down more

-better battery life

-added google talk which was removed in 1.0
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ra990:
Thanks for the update. I just have one issue that I can't seem to fix. From the home screen, when I press the search button on the phone, nothing happens. It should bring up Google Search, which I installed, but nothing comes up. I just feel a vibration. Long pressing it does brings up Voice Search (which I also installed). Any ideas?

EDIT: Figured out that the GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk from the original T-Mobile OTA needs to be installed in system/app for this to work. You probably want to add that back in the next release.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
i took your advice an deodexed/zipaligned my ROM, turns out its faster (snappier) and better on battery.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JackMagic:
Fair enough, it is normally the way to go.

If you're really bothered about battery life there are probably some build.prop edits you could make that would help. Wifi scan is probably still set to 15 and could be increased to 60/90. I don't know a lot of changes off the top of my head though.

Also, tun4f1sh has taken over development of G-Lite and has managed to fix trackpad wake. I know for a fact it works with this base/kernel because I'm still running it. If you want to include it, the files are here (be sure to credit his work though ofc):

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/102177/glite_trackpad_wake_mod-signed.zip
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
ive been messing with the wifi scan and the chache size all last week, i finally found a sweet spot for both yesterday. i will update as soon as i figure out a new bootanimation, any ideas?

i was thinkin nexus one or maybe making my own
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] antinerd:
Battery life on this rom seems to just go on and on! Nice work!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JackMagic:
Fair enough. I quite like either Android Scribble:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=696193

You'd want WQVGA 480x800 resolution, I prefer w/o flares.

Or the one included when rmk was lead dev on G-Lite (it's an animated black/white Google logo, basically), don't know what the source of it is though.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
ill add it back in v1.3
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
thanks! an remember to hit the thanks button! just wait till hte next release, even better battery life and the ROM is faster.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Hawon:
I love the rom. Battery life is great and everything works well.

I gotta figure out how to get gtalk again.. it's not in the market.

Can anyone point me to a right direction?

thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
Thanks man, its just going to get better too

I added back google talk in 1.2, there is no way to get it from the market
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Hawon:
awesome.

Can I just flash it without full wipe?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
Ya u should be able too, I'm against it tho.

I always full wipe to eliminate all bugs, if anything fishy pops up I know its not because I flashed over something.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Tiwaz:
Hello,

I flashed almost every ROM found on XDA for the Desire Z and found this ROM perfect for the things I do. It's FAST has cool animations but also a good battery life. I managed to get 48 hours of battery life with normal usage (browsing, texting, calling, downloading, sending files /w bluetooth, GPS(Sygic Aura)).

I've used the MIUI Bulletproof ROM a long time before I flashed this one. But I like this one a LOT! So good job :).

There's only 1 thing I miss in this ROM and I think it's not a big deal but would it be possible to add an option for trackpad wake in this ROM? Would really like it :). If you like to keep te ROM clean without the BLOAT maybe you can create addons? So like in default there's no TP Wake but if you flash this addon there will. Maybe it would be posibble for other apps/settings so de default package keeps clean and people can choose what they want. Just an idea maybe.

Keep up to good work hope you'll manage to keep the ROM alive and post regular updates for it :).

Regards
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Had anyone tried tun41sh's trackpad wake for stock with this rom?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19615936
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Tiwaz:
I didn't try that one but would it work? Isn't the one of tun41sh's for MIUI or? I don't know if it's safe to flash. Maybe the TS was allready thinking about adding it so i'll just wait for an awnser of him. If not to bad but it's not a dealbreaker i'll stick with this ROM with or without.

We'll see :).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
He has taken over development for G-Lite which is stock and has trackpad working. He has since included it with his ROM, but before that, he had a flashable package that worked. The link is for the flashable package.

I did not see anything that would lead me to believe that it would not work with this ROM, but make sure you do a backup first.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jbs92:
It does work; no problems afterwards.

Can someone kindly direct me how to add another notification tone?

i like the slimness but i can't answer texts / gtalk messages promptly and causing some issues :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jbs92:
You can use adb push to push an .mp3 from another ROM to /system/media/audio/ringtones and /notifcations.

If the directories don't exist, create them with an app like Root Explorer, or use adb shell and then mkdir.

There is also a flashable zip posted somewhere in thsi thread with the ringtones etc included, I think, but you'll have to have a look.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
thanks for using my ROM, and for the props. i will keep this rom updated as much as i can.

i dont know how to add trackpad wake into the rom, but the flashable zip a couple posts back does work and doesnt break anything
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] s14mc:
this works and doesnt break anytihng, i dont plan on adding it into the ROM
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Tiwaz:
Thank you very much for the reply! I'll flash the zip tomorrow to add trackpad wake thanks everyone for the help/response.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jbs92:
Fair enough, but trackpad wake was always stock in Froyo and got totally screwed in Gingerbread, it's not really an unnecessary feature. To add it you would just swap in the files from the .zip to the corresponding locations.

Is the internet passthrough into your ROM included?

I mean, when you connect the to a PC, you can can choose the type of the connection. (disk drive, internet passthrough etc.)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shambolicuk:
On root of SD card create this folder if it dont exist already media/audio/notifications any audio files u drop in there should show up as a notification tone in your text settings.
