Expect that in most cases both options will be available

For example, when we go to version 1.1 the download link will be updated to the full 1.1 .zip installer.

I will also give a link for an update for people currently on 1.0 to flash to upgrade to 1.1

If upgrading, it's a much smaller download and the only settings or data you will have to fix are for anything I've directly changed.

Hope that answers your question.

From time to time through the releases a full re-install may be necessary, but it's doubtful that will be anytime soon.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] KrnlPanic:
Exactly the information I was looking for, thank you.

While I'm here:

Stock battery :) looking forward to getting my Anker... Should be here any day...

TV-Out

Earlier in this thread I read that you used 3.5mm audio jack to RCA to get tv-out

(Audio Video RCA Cable for Apple iPod Video/Photo or Watching TV)

My question is: Is this the only way to output a video signal or are both MHL (Micro USB) and audio jack out working for tv-out? Or only ONE?

I ordered both just in case....

HTC OEM/Brand Name AV Micro Cable for HTC Incredible (on this site it says it is compatible : yourwirelesssource (dot) com/buy/accessories/cat/34/model/1005_1090598/accessory/949847

---------- Post added at 12:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:29 AM ----------

I should have posted this first.

I want to say thank you to Blue6IX for this great rom.

I just rooted my MT4GS

today

using the "revolutionary method"

I flashed your Bulletproof Un- Bloater ROM and could

not

be happier.

I installed Android Wifi Tether (the newest one 3.1 BETA7) code(dot)google(dot)com / wifi_tether_v3_1-beta7.apk

This only worked for a while with:

1. WiFi-driver reload enabled.

2. Routing fix enabled (under LAN settings)

Then I got the t-mobile redirect to the add wifi sharing sign up.do - No free wifi tethering? Oh well I added it (it's only 14.99 a month)

I am loving this rom - I downloaded Widget Locker ($2.99 from market)and themed my lockscreen (ICS theme)

This is great! I have my MT4GS wirelessly tethered to my win7 tablet (lenovo s10-3t) and my net-vertible is getting over 4mbps down!

Now for TV-OUT!!!!!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
3.5mm 4-pole video cable is what you want. iPod video cable, zune video cable - these are generally recommended.

Here is what I use.

Here is the original Tv out? thread.

I recall someone saying that mhl was not functional on this device, can't remember the thread - don't quote me but search and I have a feeling that's what you'll turn up for an answer.

Maybe that's not difinitive?

--------

There is an issue with hardware rendering of video, as noted in the original posting of this thread. With Mobo Player, you can set "soft decoding" as a default in the options menu - bypassing choppy video when playing movies on a TV.

The video acceleration is fine on the device itself, but the output to TV isn't right.

This is an issue on my list of things to look deeper into. Once I get this ROM to the point where I can start diving into kernel work, i'll be able to have more difinitive answers on the why's of this.

In the TV-out thread you can actually see the post where I decided to buy the doubleshot, believe me when I say this is something I feel needs attention and has a good bit of mine as I get to it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SandmanTransportation:
I will have an answer as to whether or not the micro usb av cables (htc oem av cables) work or not in a few days.... There are micro usb to hdmi cables that might work on tv's that support DLNA .... Lets see! If not, i ordered the same ones you suggested... Thanks for all your hard work.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
My pleasure, i'm having a blast with this.

I'm real happy to see that people are enjoying this project, it's a ton of fun for me and you all seem like you're enjoying yourselves too.

Now that Bloater is up to date, I can go ahead with cleaning up a few things in the ROM and making the install package closer to what I want it to be.

I agree with the idea that ...

...and the point is to add functionality, not take it away. To quote a learned mind.

Due to wanting to have everything that was in the 1.0 release working and functional, some stuff I didn't want to have can go. I just left these things in so that if people used stuff it needed, it was available.

Bloater will now handle the rest of the Stock apps I wanted to remove from Bulletproof. I just didn't want to deny anyone anything they might want to use, and so the concession to that was more delicate cleanup as things progressed.

There's a certain point I want to get to with this ROM before I focus my attention on kernels, so now it's time for some cleanup and optimization before we get there.

* - There's a certain necessity of getting to the base of what you need, and dropping what you don't. The less errant code running around un-needed, the better off we all are. You need a solid base to build on.

I just have to say... You kick ass Blue. Been waiting for the day I can play an emulator on my phone useing a PS3/Wii remote, while having it displayed on my TV. Happy to know your working to make that possible. :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] wiswis:
ok i wanna flash this but i have a few questions

does it work with unity v2 kernal

hoows the battery

and how smooth is it
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Smooth as silk, reports are coming in of great battery life.

Expect an update sometime within the next few days to implement the stacked changes I was waiting on Bloater to make - it's considerably snappier then the 1.0 release.

I don't recommend using any other kernels with this ROM, as it's being designed pretty purposefully as a test bed for the kernel work forthcoming from my end.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] inkling:
I've been having issues with really slow performance and high battery drain (30% left after 3 hours of on-time including a 45 minute phone call (not wifi calling) and next to no internet use.

I've looked at battery use and the top items were phone and display. During system slowdowns, nothing seemed to be topping the charts too heavily in cpu use (using Android System Info app)

I have Shredroid installed and there might be a connection between when it's shredding and the slowdowns. Not sure yet. But I think that may be a suspect. Didn't have the problem with other ROMs though.

A little news on this, for me: I was having the aforementioned slowdown issues and cleared the cache and dalvik, and my widgets wouldn't load. I don't remember this being usual behavior with other ROMs, but maybe it is.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] sivalley:
OK, I'm a lurker here on XDA and a big android/*nix junkie. I installed this rom after having some laggy issues with BP 0.22. Now I have a nice, smooth running phone again that feels better than my old G2. XD I like that my phone is also a radio, but for some reason, the radio link/shortcut is ninja vanish from my app drawer! I can pull up the widget just fine, but it doesn't let me change the sound out or presets! So, a little halp, plz! :-) Almost forgot, a shout out to blue and roman for a kick ass rom, Definitely donating to the fund tonight for OC/UV, MHL (The hardware is definitely there, the kernel just isn't looking for it), and a lovely BT patch.

EDIT: Nevermind about the radio, I feel "special" now, stupid thing only pops up if I plug in a headset. >_< On the other hand having the torch turn off when the screen times out is ANNOYING! Don't suppose there's a property that can be adjusted to keep it alive when the phone sleeps?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
What have you discovered to determine that definitely we have MHL hardware for sure?

Very curious :-)

If it is, then cant we take the necessaries from the sensation kernal? I would have thought however such an avenue may have been explored otherwise this could be a potential idea to try... Blue?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] inkling:
Blue can you comment about Carrier IQ and whether it can be found on this ROM, since it's Sense-based?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] sivalley:
Picked up a junky little USB MHL adapter, took appart the adapter and started probing XVR chip for incoming link with my digital o-scope. The signaling rate beween the two was too high to be simple usb 2 differential (~240 MHz), I was getting signals in the Ghz range that looked like it would handshake the host on the handset and then halt after about a second. Specs on my adapter's chipset showed that it only handshakes with a 64.8Mbit check and stops if no reply. (1920*1080*32bit+256byte security validation) This would hae been about 65ms of data and a halt, so the two chipsets are talking, but nothing is being fed. I don't have tools to capture or decode the last 256 bytes, or i could tell you what the chipset is based on the mfg is in the sig. :-( So close, yet so far
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Glad you are enjoying it!

About the hidden apps issue - in the .apk file for Rosie (the Sense Launcher) there is a list of apps that it will hide in the app drawer...i've already deleted that list and some other optimizations of Rosie have been implemented in the upcoming version.

I spent almost the whole day yesterday digging through Rosie.apk code trying to delete kidzone, but it's a process as it's seeded through the whole .apk codebase. At least I was able to tweak some other things as I was working through it.

I'll look into the flashlight thing - the one time I had to use my droid as a flashlight to wire in a breaker box that kept happening to me too. I'd forgotten how annoying it was to have the flashlight turn off when it goes to sleep. No promises about right away, but it's on my list of things to see about.

I am also curious about your MHL discovery - what makes you so sure it's there? I haven't seen a decent teardown of this device yet.

If the hardware supports MHL and it's just a software issue, no reason why that couldn't be handled and probably as you've suggested by borrowing stuff from the Sensation (since they are basically the same device)

I don't know much about MHL except for the rumor it doesn't work on this device - and with RCA TV-out I haven't looked into it at all. I don't have an MHL adapter, so can't test for sure.

This is another thing not so high on my list of things to find out - there are much more pressing issues being solved right now, at least in my eyes.

I'd be curious to know, though, and if anyone comes across info about this one way or another, post about it. This whole thread is essentially a project sheet, so anything that ends up in it will get looked into at some point.

Never mind, TrevE's logging checker returns no results for CIQ in Bulletproof
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Thanks!

That's helpful, and it's cool to see others probing and playing around, thanks for giving me a window into your work!

If you figure out anything else, feel free to drop it in here and we'll see what we can do to bring the functionality online if we get that far. I've got some things that are definitely filling my plate at the moment, but it sounds like a fun future project.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] sivalley:
I'm going to see if I can get one of my friends who has acceass to better gear than mine to see if he can capture and decode the security sig that is being shared. Sadly, work makes me have to give the 'no promises' disclaimer, but i will provide any other helpful tidbits I put find/together. Just hope I don't release magic smoke in the process. XD
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Just an aside - I just got my bluetooth keyboard in and it works very well with the device.

Now that I have a bluetooth keyboard + portable computer that plugs into a TV (larger monitor)...

...My internet-anywhere portable full-on computing experience is a bluetooth trackpad, sixaxis controller and native linux install away from being realized.

If anyone had any doubts about where this ROM was headed, that's it. The last big thing is the sixaxis controller that'll get my attention after overclock, and then it's the long process of figuring out how to install linux natively on the device and replace android altogether.

If anyone is interested in doing that, it's a dev topic for another thread someday, but if you're out there it's in the pipeline and everything i'm studying and learning up to.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cal3thousand:
Just wanted to say thanks for picking up development.

This was always top ROM, but fell short on the development due to Romanbb's busy schedule.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SandmanTransportation:
Don't know much about Linux, what a kernel is, how the radio, gps or how the commands and manipulation of the hardware works on my phone or any other for that matter. What I do know is that a GUI transformed the personal computer from Basic and Dos to what millions know now as a device you click, type touch and speak* to -* to execute your commands.

I have always been intrigued by the "user" experience and have found that an operating system on any device that comes prepackaged with software that is not only heavily branded, is often UN-removable is not something I asked for.

Useless *clutter that can even consume resources.

What we need here is a software that will allow you to build your own rom.

I want android stripped down. (maybe like the Linux you speak of only with the android GUI in it's simplest form) - Then I can choose the camera, apps and games I want, and nothing I don't. **Like building from Windows in Safe mode with networking...* .....

*

Having complete control of the theme down to each icon and even multiple apps capable of doing the same things.... so like "file association" i.e. extensions.... *I like to choose - and be able to change my mind and make another selection if I don't like the choice I made, that's FUN!*

I want control over my phone and anything, everything that is on it.

Correct me if I am mistaken but if you started with the bare minimum, the framework necessary to control the hardware add a simple GUI (like Android's) and then make options for which 3rd party apps you install, which stock apps you install, and have some sort of recovery partition..... maybe the phone could be however YOU want it to be* - and if you don't like a change you made, restore a backup.*

If I don't find a way to get rid of ALL of the stock T-Mobile and Third Party Apps I don't want - I will feel like there are locked doors in my house that a corporation has access to and I can't get them to leave! Please Leave KidZone!

I like options, options and actions that can be undone. Having any entity tell control how your device performs and force feed you branded software you do not want sucks.

You people fascinate me. (not being sarcastic)

People that can write detailed, easy to understand instructions are the BACKBONE to any society.* They help the scatterbrained get organized and they help those less fortunate in the intellect dept....... . get IT.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SandmanTransportation:
Just an update, I noticed in changelog for 1.0 you included GPS tweak. I read your other thread about it and didn't even get a chance to experience any lag with GPS because I flashed your rom the day I got the phone. I can say that the GPS works flawlessly on my phone. I ran over $3,000 this week on credit cards using the Square app and EVERY time, regardless of my location, Square started right up, locked on to my location and when I swiped the card, before I could even hand it back to them the authorization processed, and approved and I handed them my Targus Stylus so they could sign.* Thanks to you this phone and it's GPS are amazing!

This is probably a general Sense question, but I haven't found the answer: How do I turn off missed call notifications and text notifications on the lockscreen?

Great ROM, the moment Kidzone is gone, I'll probably make it my daily. I'm completely anal about it, I can't stand it lol.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] inkling:
thanks! silly me...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SandmanTransportation:
Notice that if you click KidZone it asks you to set up Screen Lock? Kidzone code is apparently is peppered throughout this framework and has the ability to apply limitations to different software, (bloatware), hardware and the operating system itself. Disabling it might cause problems if it is not done correctly... It's like a cancer, you have to get all of it out once it's metastasized or it will come back and cause additional complications....

The pros here want to deliver a working ROM - as is the case with Bulletproof 1.0 - I only hope they can get some sleep too!

I am excited too! buhBYE BLOATWARE!

I use this as my daily driver and the options in Bloater thus far have made me feel much, much better about the way the development is going! Thanks D's.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Sinfamy:
The Lite ROM has it removed 100% and even has the "Groups" tab removed completely without it randomly appearing, so I think its just fine.

All you have to do is remove the symlinks i think, easier said than done.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Yea, I left the groups tab in because I want to see if I can re-enable that function, without having the text messaging to egypt problem.

I know some people use or got used to using that function from the stock ROM, so trying to get it working again is preferred over removing it completely.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
Definatly, I use group messgaing regularly. Finding it slightly cumbersome having to forward messages individually. Would really like to see groups working again.

P.s. I've been testing out juice defender (I used this religiously on the G1Dream.) I have to say it's going extremely well. With my previously mentioned setcpu settings along with juice defender currently has me at 19hours with 6/10 green bars showing in settings/about/battery. Will post results when battery dies.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
In wrapping everything up, i've decided to relent and break bread some.

Kidzone is hidden from the Sense launcher for the next release.

I realized I had already used the hidden app list to hide the camcorder icon (duh - we need camera and camcorder icons? Clutter.) - so since the mechanism is already in place I might as well use it.

I've been in and out all day, but am systematically working down a checklist. I'm really having fun with this project.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
Makes sense. Hiding camera/camcorder in app drawer is good with me, we all know the h/w button does what's required.

Looking forward to 1.1 Blue
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Nah, the camera icon is still there, just hid the camcorder one.

No sense in having them both since they basically go one button press between each other - you can just click the camcorder tab in the camera.

If it was a lesser machine this would be a bad play, because you'd have to wait for the camera to load, then switch to the camcorder and load that...

The doubleshot will just snap between camera/camcorder quickly enough where I didn't feel the extra shortcut was worth the space in the app drawer.

Same thing with the T-Mobile my account app. I like the app and use it, so it's the only T-Mo Bloater removeable app in the ROM. It has two icons that basically do the same thing. I hid one and kept the other - too much clutter in the app drawer.

I figured me not hiding the kidzone app icon too would be just aggravating for everyone - looked at a different way I can put off the de-kidzone rosie campaign and spend my time on groups messaging instead to see what's going on with that whole situation.

Just didn't want you to think you'd be losing the ability to get in the camera without pressing the hardware button.

Bloater problems?

After using bloater to install facebook and slacker radio, they are not showing up in the apps list.

Btw great rom Blue. You are the glue that holds this forum together.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
It updates dynamically, so you should already see the new lists and options. If you aren't, let me know so I can figure out why.

In case anyone needs a current version, i'll update the bloater announcement here and in the Bloater thread with a link to one.

Edit:

Download Bloater Here.

I updated that link to the Bloater announcement in this thread and over in the Bloater thread. Posted here for a temporary amount of time for convenience sake.

I will look into facebook and slacker radio. Any other problems with them, and is anyone else experiencing these issues with those two apps or any other?

Thanks for bringing it to my attention, i'll look into it.

Not having any issues with the rom, but then.... I haven't been using the phone, lol.

I love the rom Blue and can't wait to see what you have done with 1.1...

I would LOVE for the TV out thing to be sorted out as I have tried three different cables now and not one has worked (4 pole type).

I too purchased the doubleshot for the TV-out capabilities. Being a complete geek I couldn't wait to get a foldable Bluetooth keyboard and my TV-out cable and have access virtually anywhere...

Currently bouncing around onto other roms to check them out but have bulletproof 1.0 backup labeled as "failsafe_default" in case anything goes crazy on me.

I also install Bloater on ALL roms (sense-based that is) that I install and test... Nice to be able to put back in what I deem necessary that the dev considers 'bloat'...

Thank you to romanbb and yourself for all your work on it!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dillalade:
I am happy with a full wipe when jumping upto 1.1

It makes for everyone working on a uniform platform!

TV-Out I confer, when connected to TV, even when using soft decoding in MOBO - the picture is not great (stutters and somewhat freezes.)

Looking forward to 1.1 release Blue.

Keep up the great work!
