idk about that tweak, but it seems im having some issues with the bloater app :/ it downloads some things alright, but after a reboot, they disappear (for example, the themes). Also, I use the friendstream app and widget (i know, Im weird), and for the life of me, i cant get the widget to work. Every time i move to that screen on my home page, it force closes HTC Sense. :/ but other than those rather irritating bugs, I love this rom :) its blazing fast, and has all the sense i love

Yeah i know, but some buttons are missing. I compared it with the same version of the facebook app on the galaxy SII and galaxy SIII. They all look different compared to the one i got on the bulletproof mytouch 4g slide. I already reinstalled the app, but it doesn't change anything.

I also got problems when i use the app on wifi. It just does'n't want to load the "news feed" when i'm using wifi. When it's on 4g it's not a problem. COuldn't find this issue on the forum, so i might be the only one.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Unrelashade:
I had a lot of errors like this without realising it was actually my fault because I was using Droidwall and preventet the apps from accessing internet access.

However, I never used the facebook App and the mobile page worked fine for me.

Good luck though.

Those of you still using this ROM as your daily driver...

I have been using my phone to tether the gps to a tablet running maps and I've noticed that my gps lags behind my actual location by about two seconds. I've compared it to my wife's fully stock doubleshot, and while hers is a little choppier (coarser update interval) it's still to-the-second up-to-date.

I'm curious if anyone else's is a couple of seconds behind realtime like mine, because I'm trying to see if the lag is in the ROM/driver or if it's because a tethering app I have been using has ”broken” my gps.

Mine alway seemed fine (and possibly better than on CM9) but I haven't ran this rom in a few months. I was running it with UV6 kernel. You could always try changing GPS servers, cold start, clear data, update it. Lots of options to try... good luck!

I've come back to reflash this ROM, and I can't believe, I don't have the GApps for it anywhere on my SDCard or my computer hard drive. I have some for JB and ICS, but not GB.

I went on http://goo.im/gapps/ and found some, but after applying the one for Android 2.3.4, things just aren't quite right. I'm wondering if I need to reflash.

Also, my Exchange ActiveSync E-mail app simply doesn't show up in launcher (haven't noticed if anything else is missing though). I had this before on this ROM.

Can anyone provide a link to the correct GAPPS for this ROM? Or should I just use the CyanogenMOD GAPPS? I may have done this last time. I don't see a link in this thread for gapps at all, though (see attached image), so any help appreciated.

Weren't they already included in this stock based ROM? I never had to flash anything separate to get basic google apps during the time I used Bulletproof. What are you missing exactly?

That explains it then. I'll have to make a zip just to remind myself :) You can see how often I reflash ROMs. Every once in a while I try out new things but I keep coming back to this one and usually so much time has passed...

So, GAPPS are preloaded. Good to know. (I thought that wasn't allowed since like CM4.24 though)

Thank you all...

I think the exchange mail was an add on with Bloater. I recall needing it when I first installed and Blue added it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cj chitwood:
I was just coming back to ask about that very thing, because I note in setup I could touch "Exchange" but it did nothing, same with "other mail". So that sounds about right. but uh oh, "Couldn't download files. Either the Bloater server is inaccessible or you have no internet connection. Restart the program to try again."

Is the server down, 'cus I have 4 bars of 4G. I can try on wifi...

Worst case, I do have a NANDroid backup. I'd rather install everything fresh from a clean load though. Though I suppose I could manually install APKs, and while I'd prefer to get the same APK that was stock, I have a version of mail.apk that I think might just work... though it's a little old...

EDIT: The old copy of Mail.apk I have on my SD works. I think I remember using it before. Haven't played much with the phone yet so I haven't found other missing things...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Bulletproof is a stock-based ROM. The dev takes the HTC-provided stock ROM and tweaks it and massages it to reduce the bloat and enhance the performance. Because it is stock-based, it still has the standard Google apps that come with the stock ROM. For an updated version, try the Miktouch ROM. It is based on the last HTC stock ROM, 1.63.531.2 and thus has a bit better performance in several key areas (GPS, Bluetooth, WiFi) and has more updated tweaks, as well. Bulletproof is based on the original stock ROM.

---------- Post added at 08:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:35 AM ----------

From what I read on another forum, Bloater is no longer being developed or supported.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] siani_8:
As a long time Bulletproof user and probably the biggest Bulletproof cheerleader from day one, I will agree that the MikTouch ROM is a smoother experience. Also, somwhere along the way, Bulletproof removed/broke something that so that it doesn't allow the Facebook app to display properly with all functions and I use that app frequently now. I was sorry I had to give up the beautiful tweaks like Extented Power Menu and Extended and Customizable Quick Settings, that are in this ROM but I guess no ROM has it all and we pick the one that works best for our current needs.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Maybe we could convince strapped365 to add Leedroid Tweaks or similar to Miktouch ROM. :fingers-crossed:

Back on this ROM again. It's the only one that has everything I use regularly, working, fully. May not be ICS or JB but it's quick, responsive, doesn't f/c all the time (or ever, really) and it just works.

Of course being based on stock helps. But I don't think i'd get the following on the stock ROM.

Keep in mind, this is not really using the phone at all, but thirty six hours and only draining half the battery is decent. Of course, authoring this post robbed me of eight percent just in the past five minutes, but that's all screen and data.

Original, stock battery BTW.

I was really hoping to get this flashed this weekend. I was so disappointed with the broken link. I have a box.com account that you could upload it to. If you're willing, PM me with your email & I'll send you the invite. It's just a free account, but I can leave it up there so others can still have access to it.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
I receive a toast notification when I wake the device (screen wake). And tbh I receive these toast notifications throughtout m screen wake experience.... I can't really say why.

The toast notification for me always reads 'Setcpu has been granted Superuser access'

Blue can possibly comprehend why this occurs - however I sense no other side effects from SetCpu other then this constant toast notification.

On my 2nd full battery test with bulletproof.. currently 17hours and 4of10 green lights (settings,about,battery.)

Awesomeness!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] shady503403:
I was just curious.. I only use screen off profile. And my battery was pretty low <20% and started gettin reboots.. when makin a call, puttin the device to sleep, it'd fail to wake and reboot.. got home and had it charging and got no issues..

Just something I noticed is all. :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
The issue brought up in Post 49 has been resolved. Worked itself out after a nandroid backup restore.

The issue brought up in Post 56 was solved by the solution in Post 58.

While I definitely encourage messing with SetCPU and familiarizing yourself with it and how it works, not everyone will be messing with that.

I just want to point out that the ROM is stable and running well without messing with clock speed and so forth. By tweaking that part of your device you can make it unstable, or even act funny.

Random reboots, lockups, and so forth - which is cool because you learn what you can and can't do with the phone depending on what it's doing.

But I just don't want to have people think it's the way the ROM normally runs.

I'll probably point this out every couple of pages or so if there's discussion about tweaking settings like this, just so people don't confuse experimentation with implementation.

The focus of the ROM is to get it as stable as possible, at least from my end. I look forward to hearing more about how you are all playing with it. Sharing stuff like this about how you are using it helps us all.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jmwils3:
thanks for getting all that worked out for me :) I love the friendstream app/widget, its been a fixture on all my htc sense devices, and part of why i never ditched sense for other roms. I hope you and RomanBB can get Bloater worked out for this device, it really is a pretty nifty app for keeping roms debloated and personalizing one's install easily.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] inkling:
That's right. Thanks for being in touch about it, Blue.

Here's the Square site, for those that are wondering what that was about: https://squareup.com/ and a link to the Square app on the market: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.squareup

Anyway, after a restore of the fresh Bulletproof install, everything worked fine.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Now that we're past the point where people may have tried to restore titanium installs from prior Bulletproof installations, let's clear this up.

Bulletproof 1.0 fully supports Titanium Backup, or any other backup app you want to use.

If you would like to use such an app with your Bulletproof 1.0 installation, go for it and have fun.

The catch:

-Don't restore any backups from prior installations of Bulletproof pre-1.0, as it will cause problems in your current installation.

--------

I know I came down hard emphasizing not using it, but that was just because restoring prior Bulletproof backups was causing an issue because of the changes made from version to version.

--------

If you start fresh now, and start with making new backups in this ROM, everything will be fine.

Bloater has now been fully updated for the myTouch 4G Slide.

You will no longer need my patch to install all themes, as Bloater will now allow the installation or removal of themes at will.

Above is posted a list of what Bloater will allow you to manage.

Also, Bloater now uninstalls or re-installs complimenting widget or other supporting software if an app has it.

That means if you uninstall the Calendar, for example, it'll uninstall the calendar widget along with it. If you re-install the calendar, it'll install the widget again with it.

*Note: after installing or uninstalling a bunch of apps, a reboot of the phone is recommended.

*Note 2: Sometimes you can get a force close of a process, like the market or fusion for example, while uninstalling apps. Don't worry about it and keep doing your thing.

When you are done in Bloater, simply reboot your phone if one of those force-closes of an outside process happens. You'll be fine after that.
​

Thank you for your patience while this was sorted out.

Much thanks from the doubleshot community to Romanbb for this masterpiece of user-level Bloat management.

Go Launcher widgets not loading

I'm having issues with GoLauncherEX not being able to load widgets. I installed it fresh from the market, set up some widgets, then they were unavailable after a restart. I tried clearing cache/dalvik, same issue. Any ideas?

Been running this ROM since day 1. So far it's been awesome! Restored a bunch of apps using titanium backup, and haven't run into any issues. Battery life is amazing too. Thanks for everything, i look forward to future updates. :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] inkling:
No go. same issues unfortunately
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
I am looking into the GO issue.

I just downloaded and installed the most recent version of GO launcher, tried some regular widgets and some GO widgets - couldn't find a problem.

What widgets were you having trouble with?

Are they GO widgets, stock widgets, or some widgets from other apps you downloaded from the market?

I'll need a little more specific information to figure out what issue you are having.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
I'm glad you're having a good time with it, and there haven't been any issues.

Restoring from old Titanium, or any other, backups is recommended against, because if you do start having a problem with something, it's unlikely that anyone will be able to duplicate it.

This will waste a lot of time spent troubleshooting a problem where none exists, because it was a programming error from loading the wrong software on the device.

For a smoother experience, and less frustration for everyone all around, it's recommended you start fresh with this ROM as if it was your first day with the phone.

If you do run into any issues, please also include in your post that you restored old backup data from a prior ROM install to help me identify your problem.

So far it's been a pretty smooth roll-out and only a couple of minor issues have popped up - I'm pretty happy with how this whole release has gone.

Now that Bloater is up to date, if anyone runs into any problems with it let me know. I ran through the whole thing a few times, it should all be good.

it was with market apps like battery monitor widget, vlingo control, simi clock, plume. but it's cleared itself up since i cleared defaults on the launcher and loaded sense and launcher pro. sense had a hard time starting, and at one point there was a FC on the system process. then everything smoothed out and widgets in golauncher work fine again. even after restarting several times just to check. weird.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Might have gotten confused switching launcher control from Rosie to GO.

This ROM is built with the intention of solidifying and improving the Stock experience, so it's assumed that the user will be using the Sense launcher and so forth, which are being tweaked further and further in each release.

That doesn't mean you shouldn't use whatever launcher appeals to you, or is most comfortable. By all means, go for it!

If there are any problems with swapping to a new launcher, just post and i'll do my best to take care of it.

I'm glad this worked itself out after juggling the defaults and restarting.

--------

The reason behind preserving the Sense experience, well, besides the fact that it's grown on me, but I like TV-out and some other stuff that's built into the Sense frameworks.

I'll make much more progress moving forward building on the Sense experience then trying to figure out how to bring some of it's features to an AOSP ROM.

To have a ROM that allows me to use the phone precisely the way I want it, i've got two choices:

1 - tackle the bluetooth controller issue for Sense ROMs.

2 - tackle the lack of TV-out for this device on AOSP ROMs.

The TV-out is already something that needs some love from a developer to work right, as it's got it's own share of hardware deficiencies that will be creative to overcome with a software solution.

Hardware rendering is buggy at best, and while we can help this somewhat, there's only so much we can do to make it work.

*part of my delving into kernel clock speeds and voltages is to see if it's a problem with the GPU, maybe how that interacts with the rest of the hardware. Something's just not right here, and I am driven to find out what it is.

I'd much rather pick up from where HTC left off with the TV-out capabilities of the device then start from scratch solving this problem.

The bluetooth controller issue is no small problem to solve, but it's definitely got my attention when I can spare time to it.

I want to be able to just plug my phone into a TV and sit back on the couch with a sixaxis playstation 3 controller playing some castlevania on fpse - is that really too much to ask?

Seems so for the moment, but this is the ultimate situation that Bulletproof is evolving to.

It's been my ringing complaint since I got this phone, out of a very tiny complaint pile.

So, Bulletproof is a modified-stock Sense solution to enjoying your myTouch 4G Slide phone, aiming to bring you the best of the stock experience, without the problems, and improved as I see fit from where Roman left off.

--------

As mentioned before, modifying Rosie ( the Sense launcher ) as the versions of this ROM progress could make it increasingly difficult for the swap to an aftermarket launcher - we're already starting to see this.

If any problems come about swapping over, just post in the thread and we'll work it out.

Thanks!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] KrnlPanic:
Blue6IX,

When updates are made available, will they be made as self-installers or will I need to wipe and re-flash the new release?

I love this Rom, basically because I love sense and the battery life I get from it, but I get lazy and loathe re-setting up my phone all the time...

I should add that this my first android and Rom so I have no idea how that works...
