watching for this

my Cappy has been cold since I got my i747:laugh::good:
[Captivate Android Development] Bane99:
If this ROM is based off of MIUI.... perhaps just CM10/AOKP with no phone functions? I'm looking to turn my phone into a mini tablet/music player for my brother when i get a new phone.
[HTC ChaCha] ethancottier:
Looks noice :D

Is it faster/smoother than the stock rom? I would go back to the stock rom if it wasn't so hard to configure and it wasn't so damn sluggish compared to CM7/CM9.
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
Every rom that I use is fast enough for me. Even the unmodified stock. I just wanted to get rid of some apps that are obsolete for me, and I needed to improve backlight settings because when it is night the original settings don't dim the lights enough which really hurts my eyes and I hate that because I have to manually dim. In this rom I don't have that issue. Lights dim automatically.

Although, I found out today that there is an issue with the dta2sd, or maybe the kernel itself. DTa2sd moves my apps and dalvik to sd-ext, clockworkmod creates a backup of sd-ext in a backup folder, and when I restore it my rom just will not mount my sd-ext on boot after that, thus I need to do a fresh install. I would appreciate if someone has an idea why this happened? It is not an issue for me, since I am going to use this rom for a while, but I would like to fix it for the others. When I don't use dta2sd there are no issues. I looked in init.rc in ramdisk, but couldn't find anything unusual. This happened to me with Void rom as well, so I really don't know where to start regarding this.

Regards

Edit: I have been using recovery for a different phone. I just realized this and now, with the proper recovery, everything is restoring fine.
[HTC ChaCha] ethancottier:
I don't know about data2SD, but I use link2SD, and that works perfectly :) but with the stock rom, you have to format the sd-ext partition in ext2 rather than ext4, and you can't do it with clockworkmod either, cos it doesn't format it properly :/ you have to use a tool like gparted (if you're a linux user) or some windows/mac equivalent to format it properly :)
[HTC ChaCha] john9:
Wow that does look pretty nice.thanks man.
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
Link2sd works well. Just tested it. Thanks! I don't have the time to look deeper into the issue with dta2sd..
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
Thank you. In a couple of weeks I will tweak the backlight settings little more, and maybe build a similar 2.3.5 rom (if I find a RUU).

Cheers

Stripped with full stock Facebook Button Functionallity

Great work. This is a solid setup. Thanks for the hard work.

I appreciate that you left the F-Button unassigned for the end user, but is there a way to get back to stock functionallity using your Stripped Rom?

Thank you.
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
Unzip Stripped Rom, add attached apks to system/app and attached chacha-keypad.kl (unzip the keypad file) to system/usr/keylayout. Zip it and flash it. Let me know if it works.

Cheers.
[HTC ChaCha] maxwellsk:
Thank you so much for the exceptionally quick response. Unfortunately I ran into an error. Let me walk you through what I did.

1. Dowloaded Sripped Rom, and all the files in the previous post.

2. I unzipped the Rom on my desktop

3. I inserted each of the files in their respective folders

4. Zipped the Rom back up

5. Transferred to SD

6. Booted to Recovery mode and tried to flash.

Here is what I got ....

CWM-based Recovery v5.0.2.7

-- Installing: /sdcard/Stripped-Chacha_1-3-3.zip

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Installing update ...

Installation aborted.
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
That is weird. I just tested it, and it worked for me. Maybe you zipped it with high compression or sth. Try with normal compression. If that doesn't work, I will upload zip for you later today. I use recovery 5.0.2.8, but I don't think that it matters.

Edit: Here is the link - Link

Flash Player Stopping

Stripped down ROM is great - now have more room for downloading apps.

One problem I've come across on this ChaCha is that Flash Player stops working (returns to home screen) after around 2 seconds of playing anything.

Anyone else had a similar problem?
[HTC ChaCha] maxwellsk:
That got it! I'm sooooo happy!!! Thanks!! It is perfect!!
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
That's great. Glad I could help.

Regards

As you can see from the screenshot below I don't have that issue. Try different flash player for armv6 devices. There are few, just google it.
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
dta2sd

Little suggestion. If you are planning to use this rom for a longer time, after your setup, copy your data from your sd card to your computer, go into clockworkmod recovery, in advanced options partition your sd card (I set sd-ext to 256, don't need more) and reboot. After that download terminal emulator from play store. In terminal type this:

su (then press enter and allow superuser permissions)

a2sd reinstall (enter and wait for your phone to reboot. It will take some time)

After it is booted enter this:

su (enter)

a2sd cachesd (press enter and wait for your phone to reboot. It will take some time).

The end result you can see in the attached screenshot. After installing all my apps I still have over 120mb free.

Of course, after everything is done copy your data back to sd card.

languages included in europe rom

What languages are included in this ROM?

Thx!
[HTC ChaCha] Soeskip:
Thanks for this rom, great daily use :)
[HTC ChaCha] madmanjimmy:
Great Rom, Thank you!

This is the best ChaCha rom I have used so far. Everything works great super fast flash even works!

YouTube can play 240p with no lag, any higher and it will.

BBC iplayer crashes but I have yet to find a rom that bbc iplayer will work on when it comes to the ChaCha.
[HTC ChaCha] Ehsan021:
Perfect rom but can u create a RTL fix for arabic support ?

thanks.
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
Like I said, I am not going to do anything else with this mod. Maybe I will do sth with 2.3.5 version. My phone is in a service (button p was acting out) so I don't know when I will get it back. You could try doing it by yourself. Try this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1410460

Cheers.
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
Thanks

Thank you. Yes, youtube works great only on 240p. I don't need flash to watch videos, I just need it to be able to load flash content on web pages so I don't have any problems with this version of flash. There are other versions but this one is very suitable for my needs.
[HTC ChaCha] laapsaap:
Stripped version looks great, except you said you replaced the ugly calculator and yes you did.. You replaced it with another ugly one lol. Use shake calc (free) or something, looks much better.
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
That is why I attached a screenshot :laugh: If someone doesn't like it, it is easy to replace it... I like it a lot...
[HTC ChaCha] laapsaap:
Oh I was talking about the ugly logo for the calculator ;p

Been using it for a few days now, I really like this rom. Thank you!
[HTC ChaCha] arvinivra:
Thanks for your great rom , i use many rom but this rom is awsome , waiting for next rom
[HTC ChaCha] arvinivra:
problem with ARABIC support please solve that
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
About that, I am not going to add anything in this rom. Everyone is invited to add and publish their own versions of this rom.

My phone is being repaired (it's been almost a month now, I'm going crazy). The letters p, a and enter were working only if I press them really hard and my memory card was losing contact a lot (when I put it on a table it was like I removed my sd and every time I needed to pull out a battery and reinsert my card which was really frustrating). So there will be no development for now, and definitely no development for this rom. I will publish a new rom based on 2.3.5 version when I get my phone back and hopefully it will support Arabic since many of you requested it.

Regards
[HTC ChaCha] umartariq:
Hoping to get your phone back soon so that we can enjoy another version of great ROM.
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
Hello everyone.

Sad day for me. The bastards voided my warranty because of unlocked bootloaders and they wouldn't fix my chacha. I just sold it for pennies, so there will be no more development from me.

Best wishes...
[HTC ChaCha] arvinivra:
bad news bro :(
[HTC ChaCha] hitanshu:
THAT is terrible. I got my phone repaired in India for the exact same reason (and a 2nd time for a busted touchscreen) - despite a RELOCKED bootloader, no one complained. That is pretty cheap of HTC. even more unfortunate for us.

On a side note, can anyone tell me how to set up this Rom such that anything i type, opens up the dialer. Currently any words I type open up the google universal search box - which is pathetically slow and doesnt solve my purpose.
[HTC ChaCha] evo1rs:
Massive shame dude, just flashed this on my wife's phone and it has totally revitalised it!

Thanks for making it.

[HTC ChaCha] didije:
I was cleaning my pc from stuff relating to ChaCha, since I don't have it anymore, and I bumped into an odexed version of my stripped rom with some modifications which I was editing just before I sent my phone to be repaired. I added it to the first post if someone wishes to try it. What is different that the first stripped version: odexed (120mb free out of the box), status bar has a different look (ICS color and icons in status bar), fb button turns off the screen (this can be easily changed) and notification toggle app is added. Really nice app, I fell in love with it. Buttons and colors are completely customizable, it is a bit tricky to set it up for the first time, but I am confident you will manage. My suggestion is that in the settings you set it as an on-going notification and as an old one - this is to ensure it to always be on top.

Oh, how I miss my ChaCha...

Cheers

how to increase menu icon+font size

Thx didije! Chacha is way faster now now.

Is there an option to increase the icon (+font) size of the menu? Reducing the grid to 3*4 the icons are as small as with 3*5...
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
I really don't know. You mean the size of icons in the app drawer? There is no option for that in the launcher preferences? Almost everything can be modified, but I cannot do it since I do not have a ChaCha anymore. Sorry.
[HTC ChaCha] SpiritStealer:
hello and thx for the awesome thread... one question: does this ROM support Arabic writing and reading "i don't care about Arabic UI" all i need is to be able to read and write my SMS with Arabic language ... thx in advanced
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
Try the patch below. I made this a while ago but never tested it and therefore never posted it. I don't have this device anymore so please post the results. The first one is to use without wifi tweak and the second one if you are going to use the tweak. I made them for deodexed stripped version, but I think it can be used for deodexed sense version too. Flash through recovery.

1st Patch

2nd Patch
[HTC ChaCha] SpiritStealer:
hey.... I tried the first patch since I didn't flash the wifi patch but it's cancelling the installation "E:Error in /sdcard/1Custom ROMS/Arabic.zip (Status 0) Installation aborted"

so what do I have to do ?
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
You need to extract zip and copy files in the right folders in your system and set right permissions.

I will post another zip tomorrow, i hope it will flash.

Edit: Updated the above links. It should flash. But I don't know if it will work...
[HTC ChaCha] astarman:
does the wifi drain a lot of battery if i dont do that mod?

i seem to be draining a lot of batt from wifi on!
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
I've updated the links for Backlight settings. I made a mistake and posted an odexed link for deodexed versions (it has been like that for couple of days and I apologize). Also I fixed the gps icon when it is acquiring signal in odexed version.
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
WiFi is draining a lot of battery regardless of the tweak. The tweak just prevents the phone from disconnecting wifi when signal is weaker (lower than -90db). The link for the backlight settings of the deodexed versions were wrong, so if you flashed one of those, I recommend you to reflash the rom with the right one I just posted.

Regards
[HTC ChaCha] astarman:
so is there no way of fixing the wifi? :(
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
There is nothing to fix. On every rom wifi will drain a lot of battery depending on how much you are using it. At least, that was my experience.
[HTC ChaCha] astarman:
it was just sleeping for 5 hours and it drained around 50%..
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
It is just not possible. Maybe some 3rd party app that you installed is causing the drain. When I was using it (every one of it), while it was in sleep mode it didn't drain 1-2% for 6 and more hours. Just before I sold it, I remember charging it fully and the next morning the battery was still at 100%. My recommendation is to reflash the rom (with all the wipes prior to flashing - wipe data/factory reset, format system, clear dalvik).

And how is wifi going to drain the battery when it turns itself off after some time in deep sleep (regardless of your wifi sleep settings in the wifi section)?
[HTC ChaCha] astarman:
I've only got whatsapp and link2sd installed. Maybe I moved something wrong ?
[HTC ChaCha] papamopps:
Testing this ROM and I am very happy about speed and Ram.

BUT - i cannot find any way to disable the hardwarebuttons to reactivate the phone?? Where can I set ONLY Powerbutton to wake up and where can I set widetlocker only to unlock by sliding the unlockbutton??

Thanks!

And has anyony a tip for a good calendar that shows different googlecalendar? And a good alarm clock?

At the moment I am using "Digi Clock" and "Simple calendar" any better app?? cause i cannot get alarms for digi clock

thanks.
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
You can disable easywakemode in widget locker, but then you will see traces of default gb lockscreen which are annoying (and I wouldn't recommend), and even that will not help much. Our device has a window of 5-10 seconds in which it is possible to wake the device (just after you lock it) with buttons other than power button. That happens even with unmodified stock rom. Check it and you will see that after 5-10 seconds you cannot wake it with any button other than power button (and in my case the A button - I was very surprised about this and I still cannot figure out why). As for the unlocking options, if I can remember correctly, I disabled all interactions, notification slider, menu button and back button unlock in widget locker options and I was able to unlock the phone only with an unlock slider.

As for the alarm app, I would recommend Alarm Clock Plus. It is free and really suitable to my needs. About calendar, I don't have a clue, sorry.

Regards
[HTC ChaCha] papamopps:
Thanks. I realized it now with the delay of 5-10seconds... and YES teh A-Button will wake up :D

Thanks for your tips.

I love your rom!

But one question? I connot update the hololauncher via playstore.
[HTC ChaCha] papamopps:
Another Problem:

The caller isn´t shown in display when pone calls comes in.... Just the unlockslider.... How can i enable caller Picture??
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
You need to enable easy wake mode in widget locker. That eliminates the default lockscreen.
[HTC ChaCha] papamopps:
Yes but i dont want the hardwarebuttons to wake up device....

dialer bug?

Does this rom still have the dialer issue? I'm running cm7 now & gps is not working, so i want to install this one.
[HTC ChaCha] deronw:
Thanks!

Just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to post this ROM.

I have tried other custom ROMS for my Cha Cha, but they all left me with only about 20 mb or less of memory after applications installed. With this ROM, I have about 40 to 50...and it's fast too.

Nice work.

[Motorola Atrix 2] leonclement:
My atrix 2 screen is very dark/black in shadows when looking at photos, compared to other phones when viewing the same photo the atrix 2 has no shadow detail, ive installed screen adjuster and lowered the contrast and its a bit better but that also makes the overall screen colour less vibrant (pale) any one else having this issue? Im on ICS leak but was the same on stock GB
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
The Atrix 2 does not have a pentile display like the Atrix 4G did. Therefore, it is far improved for certain colors such as green, yellow and black. However, a true black is difficult for LCDs of any variety. The color on the Atrix 2 is not as vivid when compared to other phones, especially the SGS series, however it should be noted that when you get down to it, the colors on the SGS line are actually overly vibrant, and as such are indeed further from the *true* color of whatever it is you are looking at vs. the Atrix 2. This is determined by doing color tests, however tests are really BS, because it's more about personal taste than anything else.

As to the Atrix 2 having a hard time with dark scenes, I have not experienced this to the degree you mentioned. I find the screen to be quite vivid, blacks/dark screens included. Even at low brightness it seems far improved over the OG Atrix. Other phones may have a better color definition in someone's opinion, however when tested against a color test, most are not as true as the Atrix 2, being slightly over vivid. I'd recommend exchanging your A2 for a different one given the description of the problem, assuming you have warranty or have recently purchased the A2, and are able to do so...
[Motorola Atrix 2] leonclement:
Thanks for your reply, i do like the screen apart from this issue, browsing and in the menus the screen is really nice, but when looking at photos they look un realistic (far to much contrast, black shadows) i dont think my hand set is faulty, i have seen a few others on a google search with this issue, it puts me off this phone, might sell it and get something else.
[Motorola Atrix 2] RAD7:
As the OP pointed out that yes there are a lot of people who echo this issue where any low light pic / videos are really dark to view despite full brightness maxxed of the display and I fully echo this too.

What really puzzled me was that I u/s HTC Evo 3D has exactly the same display tech spec as the Atrix 2 but when I compared my pals Evo 3D display against mine, HTC seems glorious to look at when viewing the display. Wonder what gives??

OP - what did you use to control contrast on your device? Also anyone if any 3rd party display control apps (incldng rooted) that could be advised of?

You can go to www.mfunz.Com to see more but its not chinese.

Kinda looks like a wannabe version of MIUI
[HTC Rezound] mbobino:
Useful Info: It wouldn't be impossible to port but translations would be necessary and it doesn't look like it has any supported devices with the right screen size so the images would have to be scaled up to fit our HD screens. Also, it looks a lot like MIUI which we already have ported over.

Not-so-useful info: Not to be a douche or anything but this probably belongs in General or Q&A.
