[UPDATE] Hyperdroid FAQ

Hi Hyperdroid fan user,

We are compiling Q&A post on the Rom in this thread. Its purpose is to trace the Q&A that for now are recurrent in the dev's thread and hopefully later, in this one ?

For those experiencing problems with sound or silent alarm or "no beep beep" when calling with 6.0.8 , DOC have published a fix, here's the post :http://xdaforums.com/show...&postcount=463

Fix is included in later versions

Questions often asked on the thread

Q: Why is base rom always full wipe?

A:Only when base is full wipe, it is (almost) sure, that users do not complain about issues, which are introduced by themselves. If you are an experienced user, you are able to change the updater-script on your own risk. But then you can propably handle it. This user effort of full wipe is little compared to the questions, which dev's are faced with a no-wipe.

Q : Is the ROM "RTL friendly" ? does it support RTL ?

A : Yes the ROM does support RTL. You can activate the RTL patch within the Hyperdroid Part application. Open Hyperdroid parts, go to Androidmeda tweaks > Personalization > Right to Left Patch confirm you want to apply the patch and voilà !

Q : What's the difference between Redpill v5 and v6 ?

A : To make it short : V5 base is XXKL1 and includes JKay, V6 base is XIKL2 and doesn't include JKAY mod. Detailed change log between V5 and V6 can be found here : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21767096&postcount=2

Q : Why v6 doesn't includes JKAY ?

A : Because JKay only develop with version he got (mostly XW and XX), if a XI version appears, then it may be integrated later ... or not :p

Q : Does vert's ics theme work?

A : Latest version is now hyperdroid compatible. Thank the man for taking time to do it.

Q : Where can I find Themes

A : DOC's Surgeon and themes can be found here : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21778696&postcount=96

Other themes / surgeons will become available via the OTA tool, please be patient as it take some time for the Devs to upload all that to the servers

Q : After I installed xxx's surgeon, apps won't install on market, it says app incompatible with device

A : If you or the surgeon (most do it) have changed your DPI you will have to set it back to 240 or 160, clear market cache, and reboot. You can do it all from HyperDroidParts

After reboot, restart market, install your applications, change DPI back to what you like, reboot again and voilà. Blame the sloppy application's developer for not supporting multi dpi :mad:

Note :

in some cases, it seems that the reboot is not enough. If it happens for you, try restarting the phone instead

Q:I've a bug with the rom, should I post to the dev's thread ?

A :If you want the dev's to be able to help you, give them a logcat from just after/before the issue happen.

if you're not easy with how to get one, there are a few apps on the market you can download which will do the trick.

Post it in the dev thread

along with the complete description of your issue and detailed steps you made to get the issue

.

As a general remark, and because sadly things have to be repeated continuously :

Before posting, you should try to reproduce it with only the base installed.

if you can't, then it is an app or theme issue don't post it in the dev's thread. Ask here for help of other users if they can, they will.

if you can, then post all the info in the dev's thread

BTW, don't bother to post in the dev's thread if:

you use another kernel

you haven't tried to reproduce it on a full wiped base

Q :I want to have my apps flashed with the rom as described in the changelog, how can I do this ?

A :Note that this is an advanced feature. if you modify the rom this way and get any problem, flash a base first before posting any "bug" Here is a short how to :

1- extract the archive on your HD say into a new directory called "hyperdroid". Just under that directory, you will see a folder named [data]

2- add a new subdirectory to data called 'app'

3- put in it the application you want to be installed as user applications. Be carrefull though, user app apk got renamed when put in this directory, i.e. Titanium apk has to be called "com.keramidas.TitaniumBackupPro-1.apk"

4- rebuild your archive

5- copy on your phone and flash through recovery

if you got all the files needed by your application, then you should see it installed in the app drawner and working.

Advice

You must check if your favorite application is using dependancies (library or anything else). Put these library under [System/Lib] (if the lib subdirectory does not exist create it)

You can do the same for system applications (launchers or paid app keys need that sometime).
