Would suggest that systemui.apk was more jelly bean
[Motorola Photon 4G] T3HG00GLEG33K:
Well to get the looks its as simple as a little bit of theming, which if made, would be a flashable extra, rather then the rom itself. As far as the jb function stuff, 90% of it all is not supported outside of jb. So unlesss someone were to redevelop systemui, it pretty much can only go about as far as theming

How to enable the adb status icon

What's the best way to uninstall system apps on this ROM? Titanium can't uninstall or convert them. I want to install a YouTube mod.
[Motorola Photon 4G] T3HG00GLEG33K:
Your best bet it either get liberty toolbox(that's the old name, forgot the name now)

Or

Purchase solid explorer(would have to manually delete apk then reboot)(you won't regret it)
[Motorola Photon 4G] tony442:
System app remover...the only one I use and has been the best so far
[Motorola Photon 4G] pradeeppk:
Use link2sd. It is usefull for removing, freezing, convert from system to user or user to system.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ttkyles:
peetr ...I know your eyes are still on this thread...

I had to get a insurance replacement mopho. Its on 2.3.5. :(

I know mofish and your locked rom via bootstrap should work right?

I rooted via terminal emulator.

question is? Im enjoying 4g actually and your rom has no 4G locked right? Or do you have an old locked hybrid build with 4G?
[Motorola Photon 4G] bosox04:
Here is what peetr said last year when I asked about adding 4g to this rom. Maybe we can use this guidance to figure it out on our own. I was planning to look into it when I get a chance, realizing I will be stuck with Photon for a while since it seems LTE is not being rolled out as early as expected in my area (NYC area).
[Motorola Photon 4G] ttkyles:
:( :( :(

hmmmm.that's a bummer.
[Motorola Photon 4G] tony442:
wonder if th3bill has looked into this at all...and I wonder why he hasn't looked into porting a solid gingerbread rom...???
[Motorola Photon 4G] T3HG00GLEG33K:
I doubt it. 4g is kind of the sacrifice of modding our phones(of course with sprint using crap ol wimax) its not even worth it.

As much as id hate to bring forth bad news. Bill probably hasnt looked into it, because as far as i remember, bill didnt do much here on xda back with gb. Bill started popping his head around the same time we has spleef jokersax etc. They all kind of fed off one another and built what a lot of our community is today after breaking through on ics. The community has since been moving forward in development as google released the new softwares.

Gingerbread has almost all been forgotten, personally, the only benefit of gb was having everything(outside of 4g usually)working.

also, as far as ports go, since gb has been mostly abandoned (by 99% of all crews including cyanogenmod) there is not much left to be done. our phone has some pretty wicked gb roms still, tweaked to the max, and virtually flawless. its a matter of preference. my favorite thing to do, is take a rom someone has kang the hell out of it, tweak what i want, and keep it around for my use and my use only(i will not leech someone's work as my own)
[Motorola Photon 4G] jrebo:
I thought this rom had 4g

[Motorola Photon 4G] stonesaber:
Yeah, but that's with the bootloader still locked and using bootstrap recovery.
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Yes, time to time, I am looking in this forum. :)

About 4g, like bossox wrote before me, you would have to take Photon firmware and do it again. Not everything, but much.
[Motorola Photon 4G] pradeeppk:
Please anybody help me to flash this rom. Please give me an idea about which is the way to root my phone and installing custom recovery and flashing this rom. My phone is electrify with 2.3.5 with locked bootloader and it is not rooted yet.
[Motorola Photon 4G] niphoet:
You can't flash this Rom on a phone with a locked bootloader.
[Motorola Photon 4G] MarcquisDale:
Yes you can
[Motorola Photon 4G] niphoet:
How?
[Motorola Photon 4G] jrebo:
see post 1. there are unlocked and locked versions (via bootstrap).
[Motorola Photon 4G] MarcquisDale:
Select the v20 locked rom and flash with bootstrap
[Motorola Photon 4G] jrebo:
Have you ever been in one of those meetings where you make a suggestion and everyone ignores you, then a moment later someone else says the same thing and it's a great idea? Granted I didn't spoon feed the suggestion with additional adjectives and verbs. I was hoping they would READ the first post and say, Oh wow, there is a locked version and I see v20 is the latest!, and then research bootstrap.

I need that emoticon that's banging it's head against the wall.
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Lol... Nice. :D
[Motorola Photon 4G] pradeeppk:
Finally flashed this rom and electrify modules to my electrify 2.3.5 locked and works good. But unable to go to bootstrap recovery. It goes to charge mode only. Then I installed bootstrap recovery again and then it works. My question is can I loose bootstrap recovery if anything goes wrong during flashing and get bootloop or unable to boot . If so how can I restore my nandroid backup.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jrebo:
bootstrap is not a true recovery so you need to reinstall after flashing a rom. if you have a bad install, like when i flashed a 2.3.4 theme on 2.3.5, and you cannot get into recovery....

follow the instructions in this post.

Thanks for this usefull information. I am also using a moto defy. Also locked bootloader. But it have no issues like this. The rom zip also includes a recovery. So after flashing a new rom clockworkmode recovery version may change but recovery was still there.

Any ideas?
[Motorola Photon 4G] MarcquisDale:
Did you download unlocked v20?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Tichater:
If i flash the unlocked v20 will this lock my bootloader? I ask because says its based off 2.3.5 OTA.

Thanks!
[Motorola Photon 4G] MarcquisDale:
It wont if you're unlocked
[Motorola Photon 4G] Tichater:
Yeah im unlocked running Th3Bill's Liquid Smooth ROM atm. Thanks!
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lokifish Marz:
Rearranged the order in which things are installed and the wifi issue is gone but another one has popped up. I'm going to call it the witchcraft that is development and code at this point. Sometimes a bit of code works fine and sometimes it decides to take a nap. Either way, thanks again for the ROM and per usual, if I find anything it's yours.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jeggen:
Coming back to my photon after a few months on my Note II just because my Note II is getting repaired. The Settings -> System -> Update screen is blank and I can't figure out how to update my profile to activate data on my Photon again. Does anyone know how to activate a phone w/ this ROM on Sprint? No problems before, just have problems now when activating the device again. Couldn't find any active links for a mostly stock blur ROM but would prefer not to have to flash/restore if there is anyway to do it with peetr_'s ROM.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sidgallup:
im using this phone outside the US, my question is: will i be able to use it on my gsm carier without flashing the radio? also, what's the easiest way to install a recovery? im on 2.3.5 stock and already rooted.

EDIT: well, ive used the Atrix's bootsrap and it worked perfectly, flashed latest v20 of this ROM, it boots but when i dial that 4636 top change the mode to gsm only, under prefered networks it says "unknown", also on about phone it says "baseband version unknown" and i dont get any gsm signal obviously..

any ideas on how to fix this?

i installed this rom v20. i am unable to login to play store.

[Motorola Photon 4G] pradeeppk:
First of all check your IMEI.

This rom is based on electrify. If your phone is photon you should flash radio and corresponding libs. Read OP carefully

yeah thanks, i forgot to flash the correct libs, but it's working perfectly now

Does Root Explorer not work on this rom? I've installed 5 different versions and they all crash every time I launch them.

I'm having to try Root Explorer because ES File Explorer is not giving me the option to change file permissions, like it did on my last rom.

nm, the 6th version finally worked. I did have to use the mount /system app to make any changes, Root Explorer wouldn't do jack with permissions.
[Motorola Photon 4G] horn34:
Ok, so how is this supposed to work? I have the new camera working, but when I click on a pic to view it, I get "Media Gallery not installed". This happens regardless of which storage location is selected (internal or SD). Am I supposed to install something else?
[Motorola Photon 4G] roushan84:
I Am using Root Explorer & Rom Toolbox Pro. Both working fine. Allowing me to change file permissions
[Motorola Photon 4G] pradeeppk:
This is a 30 step volume control mode for hybrid rom. Replace attached framework.jar in system/framework folder using root explorer and set rw-r-r permission and reboot. If any music player show fc uninstall it and then install. Dont forget to back up your framework.jar before replacing
[Motorola Photon 4G] slick69:
I have a Sprint Photon 4G that I unlocked. I was using CM10.1 on it, but wanted to have functional camera and video camera. I downloaded V20 of this ROM and installed it from Recovery, but now my phone doesn't boot up anymore. It is stuck at the Motorola logo, but I do hear the boot sound and there is an animation that I haven't seen (looks like ripples on a pond) and so I think the installation was partly successful.

What's this I hear about needing to flash a radio and such? What do I need to do to have a working phone again?
[Motorola Photon 4G] TechGuy77:
Try doing a factory reset, clearing delvic & cache & system in CWM or TWRP recovery. Then flash the ROM twice and and other flashes you may need. First boot can take a long time as it's building the cache and delvik cache. That should get you up and going.

Gack69, I am in the same situation, love the ubuntop and want CM9 :). Which ROM are you using now with your lapdock and did you have any luck getting the WebTop to work with peetr's ROM? I have a copy of the Ubuntop if you need it, but I think Loki found a solution for his hosting and have his site back.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Gack69:
I went back old faithful Imperium, by Loki. It came with webtop. I just copied over the files to do the upgrade through webtop and it worked flawlessly. Using the standalone worked too, but borkes synaptic in the process, so just reverted to plain webtop and manually did the update and is flawless! Takes longer as it has to download everything then install but gets around the borked synaptic problem. I don't think peetra's hybrid rom is compatible yet? I believe he said he was working on it though. Too bad CM9 isn't compatible... Was loving my experiences there!
[Motorola Photon 4G] didopido:
I end up doing the same, tried few roms and the only one that worked with web top was the Imperum. I really liked the clean look of peetr's ROM, hopefully he will be able to get the webtop working on this ROM.

Uploading v7:

- HDMI mirroring with resolution changer from "djeman" - this thread - thank him

- BlurSetup is out of the rom - you can access your accounts from settings and contacts - now it is fully deblured

- added Talk with video calling

- maybe wipe will be needed, but I am not sure

- I am not sure about the webtop yet, you can try, but I will install it and try myself later

- I had some problem with Market (code 403), but the problem stopped itself and did not returned, even after wipe, so I hope, noone will have it

It's the ROM / update I'm looking for, since I'm locked at GB 2.3.5

I'm a SPRINT Photon 4G user (with a LOCKED GB 2.3.5 bootloader), can you briefly advice what are the downloads I should flash from your first page?

I tried to download the locked ROM (like 2.3.5_USC_19 modules), but found it's <1M size, while the unlocked version is >100M.

Since I'm a beginner, I need sort of confirmation of the set that suites my needs - SPRINT Photon 4G user (with a LOCKED GB 2.3.5 bootloader).

[Motorola Photon 4G] bricky23:
So just wondering. I love this rom, would it be possible to take something from the new 2.3.5 for the photon and make mms work on this rom using sprint? I use go sms to make it work now, but it would be nice to just use the stock app.
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
I think you mean on your external sdcard.

You're right, just change ro.mot.internalsdcard=0 > 1 in build.prop. But then again won't work import/export of contacts from internal sdcard.

But not showing pictures is worse I think. :-)

bricky - I will think about that, but it's to much work to start from the beginning. But I already started with changing kernel :-)
[Motorola Photon 4G] bricky23:
Yes I agree not worth starting over. Just thought maybe there would be an easy fix. I really appreciate all the work you're doing here. This ROM is amazing!
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
So, if I will make some recap, if you're using GoSms, all that makes working mms, are the proper settings of apns? Those default are locked, can be changed in /etc/apn.conf, but this won't help? And if you add the sprint rom Conversation.apk, still nothing? Some settings in programming menu, in addition to the above, doesn't help too? What are the default APN settings for Sprint? Anything more that I should know about delivering MMS on CDMA?

I need some help with this, I don't know much about CDMA, just that there is some carrier information coded right in the radio.

I will start with MMS.apk comparing to GoSms.apk

And one more thing, mms works with CM7 on Sprint? I need to know this.

[Motorola Photon 4G] bricky23:
There are no apns when using sprint, and you can't add them. So I tried this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=22012299 put the eri.xml in v7 rom, to change name display from uscc to sprint. Replaced apn.xml in framework and replace apn–conf.xml in etc. Used apn from fixes thread. Flashed that, now I have 3 apns, 2 sprint, 1 uscc. All locked. So I went into ect and system etc and removed apn–conf.xml then open apns select return to default, they are gone, now I can create new ones. So I made new ones to match the cm9 fixes thread, and now I can send but not receive. With go sms the only settings needed are mmsc = http://mms.sprintpcs.com and port =80 to work. Hope any of this helps. Oh also replace build. Prop with the one from the link. Maybe I changed too much?
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
I noticed, there is delivery option only for mms, not sms, in the cm7 mms.apk. So I think, this option could work only on stock conversations.apk? Or works for sms too, in cm7?

bricky - thanks I will look into this, when I get home.

One more thing if you could try? Just delete the apn.xml from framework, if it makes some change.

Apns and mms works normally in cm7 for sprint?

For the media not seen, I wrote, how to fix it, easy, in build.prop. Signal strength is normal, like Photon stock (GN is better on this), but the 4 bar indicator shows less, than it should. Talking about gsm.
