have you looked on the thread of the rom you have there should be an option in the add on section. if not ask the dev to make one
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KCRic:
Just wondering who else has a hybrid rom. By that I mean you have customized your rom using pieces from other ones. What's your experience, good, bad, neutral? What parts are you using?

I have Calkulins 2.5 as my base. I'm using some init.d scripts from UnNamed and Venom. Also I'm using suwu10's Blue **** them for UnNamed 2.0.1 which has given me scrollable power options in the notification menu. There are a few other things but I can't remember all of them. I'm sure some here are using more in-depth parts from various roms too.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickmv:
So I'm sending my NS into Samsung, 51 weeks into my warranty (yes that means less than 1 week left), because my power button stopped functioning.

Do I really need to flash it back to stock unrooted and locked bootloader? I can't imagine Samsung would be so bold as to claim void warranty via software when it's clearly a hardware issue. They would have to prove that my software stuff caused a hardware issue, which is impossible. The button doesnt work even in recovery or from an off position.

Just curious before I send it in. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shoman24v:
I've been having some pretty crappy battery life. I don't know if this is due to the fact that it's on LTE/CDMA or what. I've been using Android since April 2009 when I got my Droid Incredible. I generally keep most settings on and can get a full days worth of use.

WiFi - usually always on, unless it nags me about new networks. I always keep the setting to 'always on' too.

GPS - always set on.

Email - 15 minute sync time.

Anyway, you get the picture. I'm gonna try setting it CDMA only to see if that helps.

Post your thoughts, is this a 4G issue? I don't get 4G at my house so... I dunno if it's searching for it or what. In the picture I have about 6 hours of sleep or so factored in.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] REHolt218:
I have been palying around with various Zoom configuration. As I get one close I do a nandroid backup with CWM Recovery. I would like to be able to rename them with discriptive names so that I can find a specific backup when needed. Every time I try I get an MD5 sum error.

Does anyone know how to rename a backup and fix the MD5 sum?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Muffycheeks:
You will need a file manager, such as Astro or what I use, Super Manager. Your nandroid back ups will be under folder "external 1" , clockworkmod, backup.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dtrud0h:
It's all in the file manager

I use root explorer. One thing to remember is that you can't use certain characters. I don't know exactly what they are, but if you only use what are in the original as far as punctuation you should be all set.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superchilpil:
Use a md5 checker and check the whole folder, find the md5 file and open a text editor and add the md5 you just got in place of the old one

And if you put any special characters in the name or spaces you will get a md5 sum error
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btate0121:
the easiest way is use root explorer and stick to numbers and alphabet characters as much as possible. it will handle the md5 for you. just renaming the files with a file manager will ruin the backup.. DONT DO IT. I found out the hard way unfortunately.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CatalystWon:
As a test, I copied a CWM backup folder from my phone to my Windows PC. I renamed the folder

without spaces or special characters

and then copied the entire folder back to the phone. Upon restoring using CWM 5.0.2.7, it successfully passed md5 test and restored. I then rebooted with no problem.

I also compared the md5 sums in the nandroid.md5 files from the original folder (before renaming) and after renaming and they are identical.

The key is to avoid spaces or special characters; use underscore "_" instead of spaces in the folder_name.

I hope this helps!;)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenemis:
you can use - instead of space

md5 fail with space, if rename again it will re-work, data is NOT ruined if you rename

[Nexus One General] creebefu:
Firstly I'll just say hi to everyone (this is my first ever post on XDA) :)

And yea, almost 2 years after the Nexus One was originally released, I am just about to own one.

I've had a HTC Legend since May 2010 (I was unaware of the Nexus One at that time, because of this buying the Legend has always been a mistake IMO), and I'm tired of it, plus it has lots of software issues, and I've never really thought or attempted to root it.

And so, with my Legend's performance getting worse day by day, I thought I'd get myself a present for Christmas. I considered the Galaxy Nexus, but as I was buying the phone outright, I just couldn't justify paying £510 (+ shipping) for it, and ended up buying a new N1 from Amazon UK for £275 (that price includes shipping).

Since waiting for the phone to be delivered, I have been obsessing over vidoes of it, and forums. I have actually looked at around 100threads on this forum (how sad?!:p) over the last 48 hours. But, in the course of doing so I have become smitten with this community and the help it offers to those who ask for it.

So I look forward to joining this well established community, and finally owning a Nexus One!
[Nexus One General] Dirk:
Greetings Dorset,

Enjoy your Nexus One

Yours Sincerely,

Surrey.

P.S Good choice of phone, but look after that power button! (Trackball wake is a must).
[Nexus One General] creebefu:
Yeah the Power Button issue definitely concerns me, but I'll probably root after a few months, just so I can be sure that the rest of the hardware is okay.

In terms on Custom ROMs, everyone seems to have CM7 on their N1. Is this generally considered to be one of the best ROMs, or is there another reason for its popularity?

Oh, and Hai Surrey :)
[Nexus One General] ElectroBeijing:
Also make sure to make use of changing the color of trackball notifications. I don't one an N1 anymore [ I went to an HD2 since], but I loved the notification light on the trackball more than any other phones notification LED.
[Nexus One General] creebefu:
I'll definitely be making use of Trackball notifications for sure.
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
Basically, this phone is too underpowered for properly running Sense builds, and the ones that were ported have always been with problems, the only relatively stable one being Froyo Sense 1 build ported from Desire by eViL D:.

This leaves it with stock, CM7 and MIUI.

Personally, for this phone I prefer MIUI - IMHO it's far more useful than CM7, containing many nice Sense bits while being small and fast (smooth).
[Nexus One General] uoY_redruM:
I beg to differ.

HyperSense is perfectly stable, as is Revolution (though he continues to add features and change things up so issues could arise in new builds). I use HyperSense as a daily with absolutely no issues.

As for MIUI, I'd agree that its a great choice also...though i ALWAYS install LauncherPro because i love the features MIUI packs but absolutely derad the iPhone look.

Just my .02.

Welcome to XDA man!
[Nexus One General] amolji:
phone is not underpowered main disadvantage is it lacks internal memory when talking about sense roms.Despite of this many people have successfully ported gb sense to n1 without graphical glitches ( thanks to kernel developer fogot name :p) other bugs.go ahead and try;u will definately love them
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
I happened to have N1 and MT4G at the same time (now the N1 is gone), and I can compare their performance first hand.

N1 is seriously underpowered, graphics-wise and storage-speed-wise, to run Sense.

Internal memory disadvantage can be overcome by various SD-EXT utilization techniques.

And Sense doesn't have trackball wake.

dbasabe did great work, but it doesn't turn N1 into a capable Sense device.
[Nexus One General] CCpotter:
Congratulations!

Not many people would like to buy a cellphone which was released one year ago since more and more new devices come out in a real fast way.

But believe me, you won't regret for this and hope you can enjoy it, if you have any problems in using your cellphone, you are welcomed to this forum!
[Nexus One General] dionix05:
I agree on the post above. I just decided to buy a Nexus one despite of all the high-powered android devices nowadays. I guess I just simply love the look and feel of this phone.

Anyway, welcome to the forum! A lot of good and helpful folks are here. Cheers! :)
[Nexus One General] creebefu:
Awesome! Glad I'm not the only one buying this phone after so long.

So far I am loving it. And considering the price of new phones, I really don't think you'd be getting much more over the N1 for what you get with new phones.

I will use this phone for at least 1 year.
[Nexus One General] P00r:
I have the nexus since it's release to canada by google, no power button issue at all, cyanogen is one of the best rom for a lot of device, on the nexus it manage memory well so it's a good choice.

As far as this phone is concerned, it may not be dual core, but it's fast and the only missing feature compared to newer phone are 4G and near field communication, unless you need those you should be happy with the nexus one despite is age!

I personally doesn't see any justification to upgrade yet
[Nexus One General] DonDizzurp:
besides the touchscreen failures .. its a great phone despite its age
[Nexus One General] LaDrOIdBoy:
I'm in exactly the same position as you! (and what's more, I'm also from Dorset ;)) Except my Nexus One came today! It's beautiful! :D I got mine for about £109 from ebay and I'm also hoping to root and install CM7, as that's what I had running on my old Motorola Milestone (which died and was the reason I bought this) Good luck with this device! :)
[Nexus One General] bassmadrigal:
One of the reasons why CM7 is so popular, is because it is pretty much the only truly custom build based on AOSP out there. There are a lot of AOSP builds that are very basic and don't deviate much from stock, and then there are a much larger amount of builds that are based off the CyanogenMod code base. MIUI is one of those.

But MIUI does make a ton of changes to the CM base, just as CM makes a ton of changes to the AOSP base. It does make MIUI stand out of the pack of CM-derived ROMs out there. While it did start with the CM codebase, they have done an excellent job of distinguishing themselves and giving a completely different user experience than someone running CM.

There are definitely a lot of different builds out there for our beloved N1's, but the two that tend to push the envelope the most and add the most new features are CM and MIUI. Try both out and see how you like them.

And I would recommend rooting much earlier. I had my phone for 3 months before I rooted it, and after I rooted and put CM6 on there (this was well before Gingerbread was released), I kicked myself for not doing it earlier. It runs sooo much better than stock ever did, plus there are a ton of new features.
[Nexus One General] DonDizzurp:
miui is off of AOSP, not CM.. IIRC
[Nexus One General] bassmadrigal:
Negative.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIUI

:)
[Nexus One General] uoY_redruM:
^completely agree with this guy here. I purchased my N1 (US though, not Canada :p) at release. I've had not a single issue with power button or anything for that matter. Out of the "common" N1 issues, the only one I encountered was small dust or dirt particles under the screen. That's kind of my fault because I work outside and I keep my phone in my pocket where stuff does get in my pocket on occasions. I plan on eventually researching how to take the screen off and clean that stuff out.

As for everything else he said, spot on. Phone functions plenty fast enough and internet moves quick enough for my taste (and I use my internet A LOT including teethering to my PC as my main source of internet use). Though I would love to get a Galaxy Nexus, I don't think I can justify to myself (or my wife for that matter! haha) the need to spend $700 on a new phone.

Never encountered any such issues.

^this guy is right as well. I use to work for U-Haul and I had my N1 for maybe 2 months, didn't know anything about rooting and such as it was my first serious smart phone (I came from an LG Vu) when some younger guy came in with an N1 (only one I've ever seen in person by the way besides mine, to this day) and we started talking about it and he asked me if I had force updated my phone and such. He told me about XDA, I joined up, and here I am today. I force updated with the update.zip that was on here, learned about rooting, and within a week after that I had my phone rooted and never looked back. Did a lot of CM nightly testing and such. I've used CM, MIUI, Sense...you name it...from developers new and old (still miss Evil's work!) and every kernel you can think of.

I'd highly suggest rooting ASAP and taking full advantage of this amazing phone :D

[Nexus One General] DonDizzurp:
that tells me were both right

although the official miui website says its based on cm6 for milestone.. probably outdated

Where is this ROM from? Is it based on the Dexter version?
MIUI ROM is compiled based on the source code "CM6 for Milestone".

you mean at least not yet ;) i dont know any n1 user who hasnt eventually faced the digitizer problems (and dont forget the terrible multi-touch (axis crossing) that the older android phones had)
[Nexus One General] chota_shivaji:
I have been using my nexus one for about 1.5 years now. Happy with it so far, even if it has flaky power button.

You should definitely root it. I like Oxygen mod rom over cm. It has all the required features for normal user, few of them taken from cm. I also like sense 3.5 rom. Presently I am using it for almost 2 months now.
[Nexus One General] olyloh6696:
Why is it sent from Runnymede then?

-------------------------------

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[Nexus One General] dionix05:
Maybe its just the signature or he is using a sense runnymede rom? :P
[Nexus One General] bassmadrigal:
With MIUI, instead of using AOSP as their base like CyanogenMod does, they use the CyanogenMod base and make all their changes from there. The CM 7.1 base is based off of AOSP 2.3.7 which is why they say it is based off both. People who aren't familiar with CM won't know what it means if they say it is just based off CM 7.1. So they added the actual Android version that CM 7.1 is based on.

MIUI is still an AOSP derived ROM, but only because it is based off CyanogenMod.
[Nexus One General] sparkyryan:
I got my n1 15months ago and tried tonnes of roms but kept coming back to miui, I highly recommend it.
[Nexus One General] lorcopotia:
It's a great phone! I like it. :-)
[Nexus One General] olyloh6696:
miui is awesome!
[Nexus One General] mrhohoha:
Whatever you do, PLEASE root and install a custom ROM with trackball wake. And try not to use a custom case which covers the power button. I got my N1 in June 2011, and kept putting off rooting and was using a silicone case. Both of these things ensured the destruction of my power button in less than 5 months, and eventually had to be returned to HTC for service.

Don't worry about warranty issues while rooting - rooting does not require unlocking the bootloader, which also means that if you only root and install CM7, you can easily unroot and return to a stock ROM if you ever need warranty service..
[Nexus One General] seanowns:
My power button died maybe a year ago. It is annoying, but with your phone rooted you can get around entirely without it.
[Nexus One General] 3lflre:
congrats ! Other than the n900 and iphone4S the N1 is the best phone out!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] anonymous572:
Real S Pen tuning by me :D

Carefully draw the following picture using stationery knife on the button of the S Pen:

Now you can easily and quick find S Pen button without looking at it or trying to search button pushing it at every possible place! After 2 days with this tuning I began to use the button for at least 5 times more often.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bamboo12:
What does this actually do? How did you come up with this idea?i doubt anyone would defile their note without some proper explanation
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] anonymous572:
I was bored at work and decided to play with a stationery knife... :)

If you use a stylus often you must know how freaking hard to find button sometimes, especially in the dark. Roughness will help to find a button much faster.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hippo1n2:
wow this is good too !! so ur thumb will be able to feel the button !! if u guys do not wanna scatch can try pasting a thin sticker... it helps too ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] DSD99:
all it does im guessing is let you find the button easier.

Since its so smooth and small i and a lot of people have trouble finding the button without looking down at the pen.

If you carve a little pattern into the button youll be able to feel the differance really easily so youll know when your finger is on it.

i might pick up a 2nd Spen and give it a try
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dt33:
Wouldnt it better, just have thin glowing tape and tape it on the button?

That way, can see in when dark too. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] iphonest:
good thinking

but i dont wanna my pan look like this

is there any different way?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] seeking:
the glow sticker wont work because it wont get enough light throughout the day to work in the dark since its dark inside the compartment.

other options could be cutting a piece of di-noc carbon film and putting on the button.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] brodiniozo:
Omg.

Just hold it as a normal pen, then twist it a little til u here/feel the click..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] senectus:
You could put a little liquid paper into the grooves that you cut to highlight the button as well.

Might do that myself, as it is I barely use the pen at all... Anything will be an improvement.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] cushcalc:
I was thinking about putting a thin coat of glittery silver fingernail polish on the button.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] cube48:
I had exactly the same idea. But then I realized that the button is placed in the direction of the ending hook of the stylus and the need for cutting/brushing the button was irrelevant since then for me. Quick glimps on hook tells me where the button is and short roll between fingers is also matter of fraction of a second. But your solution is definetely quicker ;)

[General Questions and Answers] I Hate Import Cars:
Hi there, I searched the forum for this and couldn't seem to find anything on it, so here goes;

I have a Droid Bionic on Verizon. I used Pete's one click root app and it worked great. I then loaded the Liberty ROM as it was touted to have the best battery life. I love everything about the ROM EXCEPT that there seems to be no visual voice mail with it. I don't want/need some fancy overly complicated vvm app like all the ones I found in the marketplace, so I was just wondering how/if I can get this resolved.

I tried downloading the Verizon VVM APK (I just Google searched for it) but then when I opened it, it popped up a message saying that my phone already had VVM on it and to use that one. I'm stuck.

I also just received a new update to my phone OTA, called 5.5.886.XT875. I'm on Android Version 2.3.4, if any of that matters.

This weekend I tried loading the UNLEASHED rom and the BLURRED rom this weekend, but one didn't have a camera app (BLURRED) and the UNLEASHED (which I'm using atm) is just slow and glitchy and I don't like it. I really wanna go back to Liberty but must have vvm for my line of work.

So, anyone have any thoughts on this? Is there a way to contact a rom developer directly that I'm missing somewhere or something like that? Thanks in advance for any help you can give me, and sorry if this should be in the BIONIC forum.

Good thing I read through this q n a, I'm going crazy too. When I power off (to reboot after installing tons of apps, to refresh etc.) I get the battery charged icon and freezes there.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] setite:
Since my phone is new to me I wanted to power down and get a full charge.. but I can report this bug as well. /cry

Did any of you use a different rom prior to ARHD? I wonder if its something in the kernel or the OS. What allows the phone to show that animation when turned off? That could hint at what modification breaks offline charging.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jd1001:
I have this problem too running a revolution rom. The phone charges fine but I have to pull the battery to boot up. It's a strange one!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zeke1988:
does this happen to stock rom? the one shipped with the phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zeno78200:
No!

The bug happens with custom roms. Infact I went back to the stock rom and (even if rooted) I can charge the phone when it's turned off without having problems.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jd1001:
I am certain the phone still charges to 100% but it appears to be frozen. The only way to boot back up is a battery pull.

Any more info on this from anyone? I saw a 4.0.3 rom yesterday that claims to fix the issue so maybe that's the way forward.
