I've been thinking about this question alot, and decided as one of my posts is to do some research,

hopefully i'll get what I need from this post in order to start with the most simple easiest rom for non techy people.

What do you want in a rom?

[HTC One S] paulobrien:
Hi everyone!

This is the development topic for my MoDaCo Custom ROM for the HTC One S. MoDaCo Custom ROMs are based on official ROMs - either shipping or leaked. A MCR release is designed to feel as far as possible like a stock ROM, with optimisations, tweaks and complimentary additions that enhance the user experience. The aim of a MCR is to be ultra reliable for use on an everyday device.

I am currently working on a LOT of features for the ROM (we have over 120 kitchen items already!) including including as many stock ICS options as possible. Development - as always - will take place in the kitchen, however I will be making a 'stock style' prebake available periodically as I create the ROM. Stock style and Vanilla (ICS) style prebakes will be available as the ROM takes shape.

Please see the changelog in post 3 to see the latest updates and to see what's included.

The ROM is installed via my ClockworkMod recovery. PLEASE BACKUP BEFORE INSTALLING. This ROM uses custom certificates, if you are not coming from a previous MCR release, please flash the 'to MCR' update zip as well as the main ROM. If you wish to switch from this ROM back to a stock ROM, you should flash the 'to Stock' update zip then the ROM of your choice.

ROM update zip (Sense style) - DOWNLOAD - MD5: 54e2b3e03d8ccd8e4edea3ee1050f9eb

ROM update zip (Vanilla style) - DOWNLOAD - MD5: 15ab9e59feb9a35950987039d56f2a52

'to MCR' update zip (see above) - DOWNLOAD - MD5: 418c9d6da2bc869d5bbaf1ad8def2095

'to Stock' update zip (see above) - DOWNLOAD - MD5: 950ce66bb4cccda5c5d129e4af55085f

Thanks for your support! Details on how to donate should you wish to do so are available in the MoDaCo topic. :)

Would it be possible to tweak the partitions.

I wouldn't mind having 1gb Phone storage for an extra 1gb media?

partitions are in the hboot. so that needs to be hacked first. and then i think it will be possible as all those partitions are at the end of the flash memory.

[Nokia Lumia 900] Jsgross:
I received my Lumia 900 last Friday. The ATT app which allows you to monitor your usage and control your account would not let me login. I had an existing ATT account with a username and password for my account. After playing with tech support for a while, who told me that they were having problems, I still could not login. I removed the app and redownloaded it and it worked. Don't waste time if you can't login, just replace the app that shipped with the phone.

If you are talking about the myatt app it works for me.

[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Yesterday I noticed the signs of screen burn in. Too many football games and poker games watched on mobile. I think the culprit is the video control bar in the jplayer app.

Now i need to unroot my device and visit the Verizon store.

1. where can I download the stock ROM for FP1 to replace eclipse ROM?

2. Can i flash stock ROM without loosing customer data?

3. I have titanium backup and would like to know what I need to backup so when i get a replacement device I dont have to spend forever reseting home screens and other settings. I'd like to duplicate the old palm days where i could plug in the device and sync it back To the way it iS Now.

4. Is screen burn in prevelant on smart phones and how do i prevent it from happening with a new device?

Mike
[Verizon Droid Charge] Cilraaz:
I remember someone else posting about screen burn recently. I believe they fixed it by displaying a pure white screen (via an image?) for a period of time.

Did some searching. Here's the thread about it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Thanks for the advice. I'll see what i can do and post after lunch.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
Screen burn is only prevalent on OLED screens...the price we pay for the picture quality. Even then, it's not extremely common. The white screen can work, but you can't "loosen" the pixels the way you could on old displays. OLED pixels literally just wear out over time and with use and the only thing you can do to alleviate burn in that has already happened is wear out the pixels around it so it isn't as obvious.

There isn't a stock restore available yet. I was going to try to dump it this weekend, but I never got time. If there was one available, I'd be wary of coming from a custom rom without wiping data...there are too many changes that could cause issues.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
So then what's the best way to get back to stock so I can visit Verizon? I don't have to keep data...but won't be able to use titanium to restore. Right?
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
Well titanium backup and then either pull the sd or copy the contents to your pc. Odin ep4d and take the ota. IF YOU DECIDE TO LEAVE THE SD IN THEN FORMAT IT because CWM and some root apps leave stuff on there.

Sent from my handheld Linux computer using electromagnetic radiation.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Ok. I'll flash EP4D and get the OTA upgrade. Then it's off to Verizon.

Hopefully they won't give me any trouble and a new phone.

Since the phone will be stock until I get to the store, is there any way to restore apps and settings without downloading and reentering info? I don't want the phone to look too stock. I want it to be gently used and worthy of a swap. are there any non root backup programs to help with this that would not tip them off to the fact that the phone had been rooted?
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
You worry too much, just download Go launcher Ex from the market and change your wall settings and drop a few icons on the home page. That's it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Are you telling me to unroot and then add go launcher and customize it a bit to not make it ootb stock? that i can do. Thx.

I do tend to over think things. I just want things to go smoothly.
[Verizon Droid Charge] beavermjr:
Im getting a new phone. Should be here today.

Rather simple really:

Unroot phone

visit store

Store confirms defective device

Store sets up warranty swap from warehouse

Wait for phone to arrive

Root new phone and setup device

Wipe old phone & send back to vzw.

The worst part of the process was talking to the customer service rep on the phone setting up the swap and her telling me that it sounds like screen bleed and that i should file an insurance claim or will pay 199 for claiming damage as defective device. No way am i paying cuz i keep my phone fom getting damaged...

Over all: very easy

Apktool is only executable once you have changed directory (cd) into the system folder.

Alternative is to put apktools aapt.exe in your system path. Read this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=640592

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Bakuron:
Edit: Just follow these guides http://www.freeyourandroid.com/guide/install_android_sdk & http://www.freeyourandroid.com/guide/apktool

If you have unzipped and installed properly;

1. In command prompt type- cd c:/windows/ Then you are in the correct directory to execute APKTool.

2. If you dont want to have to do 1 each time then do this. Go to Control Panel, System, Advanced, Environment Variables, then find PATH, double click it and type at the end of it- ;C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-

tools;C:\android-sdk-windows\tools

After doing 2. you should just be able to type APKTool into the command prompt from any directory and it will run.

I just didn't follow the instructions. If your system names a file type, why add an extra extension? I slammed my face against my screen for two hours before I had that thought. I simply left the names on the batch and jar files as "apktool". Works just fine, now. I hope this helps the next guy Phind sends this way.

I've been using CyanogenMod (both 7 & de 9) for quite a while, but I've always had a poor battery life. Does anyone have any advice on how to improve this?

When I was on build 04/08 my battery died after not even 4 hours and again after I completely recharged it so i went back to 04/02 on which the battery life was a little better, but still not perfect.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] demonstone:
Of course I'm still thinking it's irrelevant... Battery draining can be caused by too much other things and you didn't say your configuration neither...

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] piduca2011:
Hello, folks.

At first, sorry for my bad English.

I have an Xperia Neo V (MT11a), and I figured out that changing the build.prop file to make my phone "pretend" to be a MT11i would make my phone able to play some HD games. And yeah, it works. But I am having some issues on some games (specially Modern Combat 3) that I suspect that should end by upgrading my firmware.

So, as I am seeing now by reading the forum threads, it seems that my firmware version is quite old (4.0.1.A.0.283, running Android 2.3.4).

I really searched the forum about how to upgrade my firmware, but all threads I faced stated that having the 4.0.2.A.0.42 is a primary requirement; I didn't find a thread about upgrading from 4.0.1.A.0.283 to a newer one.

So, how can I upgrade my firmware? Because, here in Brazil, PC Companion always reports that my phone is up to date (but we know that it is not!).

Waiting for an answer, and thanks in advance.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] bluestricker_21:

So I was doing all the downgrade stuff..

Downgraded, got as far as the Revolutionary S-Off part, then when I was gonna update my radios I ****ed up and copied the wrong zip and flashed the first 2.11 RUU and it took me back to 1.5 locked.

I was so tired had been at it for hours so I'm like **** I'll just start again I guess this time will be easy, I bricked my phone through the method but then I read if you were already s-off that was perma brick?

I read that after I tried running the live cd tool and it wouldn't recognize the phone, please tell me my 2 week old baby isn't gone...

I do get the red dim light still idk if that matters but I can't turn it on or go into the bootloader
[HTC EVO 3D] spirithandler:
The last I heard if you do the downgrade with S-off your phone becomes a paper weight.
[HTC EVO 3D] marioca:
I got frustrated at what I did and was so tired I didn't re-read I just repeated the process then I read I had bricked it since it was already s-off..

is it gone?

As far as I know its gone! on the bright side you now have a nice expensive paper weight!

Sorry for your loss. Its a hard lesson learned.
[HTC EVO 3D] blas4me:
Your best bet is to take it back to Sprint and tell them it stopped working, and see if they trade it in for you. I've read that a guy on this forum did that and they charged him like $35

for new device. Time to use your communication skills. I just sent mine to HTC for repair because I don't have a Sprint account, I'm using Google Voice for the moment. Just tell the Sprint rep how much you love them and their service and how you'd recommend them to family & friends and all that, they might just help you out. I'm missing my E3D already:'(

Question what custom recovery do you have installed
[HTC EVO 3D] wloftus:
so technically as long as i do that writeseureflag 3 or what ever command and turn s-off to s-on i can do any upgrade i want and then always revert the hboot back again later? and not have a paper weight ?
[HTC EVO 3D] Will32:
Not exactly, you can take any update you want to with s-off, and s-off will stick. I've run the 2.17 RUU with s-off and it put on hboot 1.5 locked, but since I still had s-off, I just flashed a custom recovery and then flashed hboot 1.4 without ever unlocking, the s-off overrides the lock.

I wouldn't do fastboot oem writesecureflag 3 unless I absolutely had to, like if I was selling my phone and they didn't want s-off. The op only has problems because he was s-off and then did unknowns brick method.
