Ok forget about the sounds for now... I have another problem. I flashed the latest 1.04 over crispy. Everything seemed good until i tried holding the 1 key in the dialer to call my voicemail. It worked the first time, but when i tried to do it again the system seemed like it froze and not dial anything. i can back out by pressing the home key. I can go back into the dialer and try holding the 1 key to check voicemail again but same thing happens. I figured maybe i should try fresh install wiping everything clean. After doing that, first thing you see after boot is statusbar force closing, no status bar on top at all. I tried wiping status bars data, still force closes with no status bar. Try installing 1.04 and wipe the data, then boot. You'll see what i mean...

Re: [ROM][FC09][TW-MTD] Legacy ROMv1.04 & 1.05

Sorry, but I was unable to duplicate any problem. Good status bar. VM via #1 button hold worked without fail. Pressed a dozen times or more.

Don't why it happened for you. Bad flash maybe? Check the md5 checksum? If you can't find a reason and duplicate these again, I would suggest the recover semi-bricked phone method linked in OP. Shouldn't take long but if problem persists, you're data backup may be corrupted.

Good luck.

Re: [ROM][FC09][TW-MTD] Legacy ROMv1.04 & 1.05

I'll look into other reasons why it happened. I'll report back once I figure it out.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ankurcshah:
So? I am on EL30 stock now. I have repartitioned using the pit file. Now how do I flash this rom??
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
Download, check md5 checksum, wipe data, cache and dalvik and flash. Auto converts to MTD so expect a recovery reboot once during flash after you select the ROM and flash.

Odd but the first flash after auto-convert also auto-boots after flashing the MTD ROM for me rather than me telling it to reboot system.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ankurcshah:
Re: [ROM][FC09][TW-MTD] Legacy ROMv1.04 & 1.05

Bur what recovery do I use??? Thats d question?
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
5.027 (click link) tar in Odin is your best bet. To root, Open new Odin session, select the tar.md5 file from the "PDA" option. All you need checked is Auto Reboot; no PIT file. It's also best to remove the battery and use the USB power for that download because you have to flash a rooted kernel or ROM at your first entry to recovery or you lose root and default to factory recovery.

Sorry, but I thought all the links were there in the stickies, but not this one. I had to search for a live link. Thanks to kennyglass123 for that.

Re: [ROM][FC09][TW-MTD] Legacy ROMv1.04 & 1.05

To anyone that prefers the animated pull-down, would you like to keep the flash of white light or is it becoming annoying?
[Epic 4G Android Development] DaKillaWilla:
Re: [ROM][FC09][TW-MTD] Legacy ROMv1.04 & 1.05

I checked md5 on my download and everything matched. I also repartitioned to stock and started fresh and same result. 1.04 runs fine when flashed normally. But if I flash then wipe data I get the statusbar force closing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
Re: [ROM][FC09][TW-MTD] Legacy ROMv1.04 & 1.05

I don't think I've ever done that with a ROM flash. I always wiped before a flash. Are you doing this because you don't want the apps?

It's best to open the zip and swap out remove apps before flashing. Right click the zip on your PC, and use 7zip. For example, open the archive of both cut and paste and legacy, delete YouTube.apk and drag and drop the one you want or even delete it if you don't want it.

Just have to be careful what you delete.

In system app you can safely delete YouTube, Gmail, Livewallpaper, and calculator. In data app folder, you can delete the market apps but leave voice search and Nonag. After edit, place on sdcard and flash.

Hope that helps, let me know if you need more help. I could do this for you if you're specific as to what you're trying to accomplish. Sorry if I'm not understanding your intent.

Re: [ROM][FC09][TW-MTD] Legacy ROMv1.04 & 1.05

Ok, so after a ROM flash and boot, I backed-up my data, deleted data for factory reset and booted. All is OK, that way. So if that's what you're trying to do, let it boot after the ROM flash then go back cwm and wipe data. You can even do an advanced restore of data from a previous backed-up MTD TW ROM, if you like.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DaKillaWilla:
Re: [ROM][FC09][TW-MTD] Legacy ROMv1.04 & 1.05

Can you make a flashable for just the theme?
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
Re: [ROM][FC09][TW-MTD] Legacy ROMv1.04 & 1.05

Sure can. I'm returning from a short vacation today so it may be tomorrow before I get to this.

It will include the mods I've added to this ROM. Do you want the animated pull-down or standard pull-down?

Do you want it to include the transparent YouTube or Gmail from Cut & Paste?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ankurcshah:
Re: [ROM][FC09][TW-MTD] Legacy ROMv1.04 & 1.05

Hey buddy anyway possible to include the new notification pulldown,i.e from the s3 or the s2 (jelly bean type of toggles) love this rom! Also how do I take screenshots? Can't take em
[Epic 4G Android Development] DaKillaWilla:
Re: [ROM][FC09][TW-MTD] Legacy ROMv1.04 & 1.05

Just the main theme from the status bar and the color combination of the windows. I could always grab them transparent apks from the cut & paste zip. I would grab the modded files from your zip, but I'm not sure which files to copy over. I would like to run my own rom with just the look and feel of yours. As for the tranparent pull down, I would go standard. Or maybe have the option to flash either one to play with.
[Epic 4G Android Development] iamterence:
Probably not, that stuff might be tied into the JB framework of TouchWiz. If it is possible, it might take hella man-hours of work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RodimusConvoy:
This ROM might be right up my alley. I kinda miss my Gingerbread FC09, but it had features that I kinda need that I don't have in CM10.1.

I guess my biggest question is, Facebook notification, and Email notification (not to be confused with Gmail notification), work on this ROM??? I already see from some of the posts that its good on battery life, which is a BIG plus for me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DaKillaWilla:
Re: [ROM][FC09][TW-MTD] Legacy ROMv1.04 & 1.05

Yeah, they both work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
I got my screenshot app here The link is still active. Download, place on sdcard, use a root browser to install it.

Accept the terms, grant Superuser permission, menu/Working mode/Light (block sensor) is how I like to set it up. You can also hide it until done then open the app and close it. Have fun.

As for the newer pull-down, I can't make any promises but I'll look into that when I have some free time.
[Epic 4G Android Development] 209pcs:
Been running the ROM for a few days....

So far, so good. The version I downloaded had no wallpaper and Voodoo supported kernel, so a quick adjustment to the gamma and color balance settings resulted in an ultra-black theme. Very nice, especially the bright white compliments - the whole thing just stands out. It's smooth as butter - with V6 running and the occasional db vacuum this thing runs like the wind. Battery life has been pretty good; about a 15 hours between charges with moderate use. I have Voodoo Sound's sub-bass boost enabled with the smart amplifier, so it uses up a bit more juice when I'm playing music but nothing too major. All in all this is a solid ROM, with a kick-ass theme to boot. Nicely done.
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
Here are two flashable themes for test. DaKillaWilla, let me know if this needs some tweaking. I've already tested; they retain data and many existing apps.

Adds none of these:

build.prop tweaks, V6 SuperCharger, SuperSU, third-party-apps.

[Epic 4G Android Development] DaKillaWilla:
I flashed the tw locksreen one now. So far so good.
[Epic 4G Android Development] kvan1707:
I came back to this ROM after being on cm10.1. Don't get me wrong, I love jelly bean, but the battery life here is double. My phone dropped from 99% to 93% in 11hours while I was sleeping. Cm10.1 I would be in at 83% at the highest after that long, if that.

Thank you for this ROM!
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
You're Welcome!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] RodimusConvoy:
What's the camera like? Is it similar to the FC09 camera (if not the exact same)? Can I shut off the shutter sound (I had a flash for that with the stock Gingerbread FC09 root)?

Also, my phone service (3g, data, etc) will work immediately without having to flash something else (like I had to with CM10.1)?
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
Shutter is silent by default but camera is basically stock, AFAIK.

Everything should be functional; the extra reboot after initial flash is suggested to get V6 SuperCharger fully functional to help prevent lag, make things smoother and prevent dreaded music skips when playing sdcard music.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RodimusConvoy:
Final question: I don't need to flash a gapps zip?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nashdogg:
This is touchwiz, so as far as I know you do not need gapps for this rom.

Sent from my SPH-D700 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
[Epic 4G Android Development] RodimusConvoy:
Ok. I know I needed to when I first rooted and came to Gingerbread FC09. Otherwise it wouldn't let me access the Play Store.
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
No gapps flash required but if you are coming from CM, you may have to Odin to stock with BML repartition. See OP. Some posts I've recently read lead me to believe it is not necessary but I need to verify this, myself.

There is at least one TW kernel that works with TWRP injection. I was testing a build with it but didn't flash back and forth between TW & CM/AOKP to test that theory.

I should get back to that testing. Just guessing but I think data would not supported; wipe it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RodimusConvoy:
To that end:

What process did you use to go from CM10.1 to Legacy? Cause it seems like we are in exactly the same boat.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Unjustified Dev:
When I had an epic I flashed it perfectly with full wipe from cm10 . you cant do this to go to a stock ROM but it will with this one since they are both mtd. One thing is most times when you flash it will boot up with cwm with errors. Just pull out battery go into recovery notice that cwm is the older one. Now wipe and flash ROM and profit. Quicker than using odin
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
Just don't try to inject TWRP into the current TW MTD ROMs that use Samurai kernel. Warning: Legacy ROM v1.04 and v1.05 both have Samurai kernel. (Not the kernel developer's fault; development has long since stopped and no longer supported.) FC09-MTD-TW-Shadow kernel v1.01 (ShadowKernel-FC09-MTD-v1.0.1.zip) that released shortly after Samurai's last release will actually accept TWRP injection. Hopefully, the user can stick with TWRP and not have to take additional steps to recover CWM.

I will outline the setup for TW TWRP as well as risks when I've tested some more. The risks as well as what actually can be expected to work need to be understood before flashing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RodimusConvoy:
I went ahead and flashed it. So far so good, but I miss the cube-out effect on the home screen. Also, is there a way to delete the boot animation or is it required?
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
The cube-out effect is most likely the launcher; not in the free version, includes AFAIK. ADW EX (paid-not-included) includes cube and cube inverse screen effects.

You can use a root browser and delete /system/media/sanim.zip and /system/etc/PowerOn.wav

What about the shutdown animation video? Delete /system/media/video/shutdown folder and /system/media/audio/ui/PowerOff.wav
[Epic 4G Android Development] RodimusConvoy:
Ah okay. The theme is black, is this because you figure people can customize the theme through ADW if they choose to do so?

Thanks.

I like the shutdown animation. :)

As for the rom itself, actually seems kinda slow. I've rebooted a few times (mostly to flash the themes you gave a few pages back, I prefer to AOSP theme myself). Had to pull the battery once on the TW theme...but other than that and the basic black everywhere, it feels good to have Gingerbread back, sort of. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
Using TWRP as recovery, my test TW-ROM flashed and booted with no apparent errors from CM10.1 based ROM. I got back to TWRP recovery and also did an advanced restore of data partition from TWRP backup. Still boots but I'll test for functional reliability after some sleep and getting my daughter off to school.

Maybe an upload of this ROM is forthcoming to hopefully allow ease of flashing from CM back to TW-MTD ROMs (those with bbelos' FC09 MTD Shadow kernel).

Oddly, the CM10.1 ROM I flashed after backing-up TW ROM and wiping/formatting system had massive FC's on initial boot. I pulled the battery, wiped again and re-flashed the ROM (this time without injecting TWRP after install). Booted OK, re-flashed TWRP and then wiped/formatted system and flashed test TW-ROM as noted above without apparent error. Not sure if it is recommended to queue ROM and gapps to flash with "inject TWRP after install" checked but that was the sequence I chose after TW-backup, factory reset/wipe of system, cache and dalvik that preceded the FC's and battery pull...
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
The setup of ADW launcher may be the culprit. I have posted some suggested settings but it also has a set of fast defaults that you can use as defaults and go from there... or find another launcher.

The themes are not anything different from this ROM. They were the result of a request for use with another ROM but keeping the theme of this ROM.

If things appear too dark, try a wallpaper. Some apps have transparency to wallpaper. Overall speed should increase for you after a few minutes of settling. The V6 SuperCharger has a delay in activating to avoid crashing some devices so it's very laggy after a reboot until all the startups complete and SuperCharger engages. If not, install the script linked in OP and change some settings to see if you can find better settings for use. The script can also be used to un-SuperCharge as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adj998:
Guys I've been running into an issue. Everytime I flash this rom or any gingerbread rom, I cannot access my status in settings, I cant get my baseband to change either, any help please? ODIN is not an option right now
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
Sounds like you can get back to CM and have the Nexus modem, right?

Only way I know to do it without ODIN is to follow the How To here. You'll need to download the right modified kernel (possibly CM10?) and a CWM flashable TW modem, first.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RodimusConvoy:
Yeah I applied wallpaper (a photo) and I love the transparency affect.

I have two new issues, one related to your ROM, one not. The one related to your ROM: GPS. Its almost non existant. Took forever to lock onto my location. That's kind of a dealbreaker. Otherwise its a good ROM.

The issue NOT related to your ROM: battery life took a nosedive. What's funny is the reason I switched to your ROM is because I was losing battery life on CM10.1. A few folks were telling me to get another battery, but I maintained I had no battery problems until I flashed to CM10.1, so that must be the culprit. Well now I'm on your ROM and the problem is WORSE. So now, yes, I think it is my battery. Could be the V6 Supercharger, but I kind of doubt it. Guess it was just time to replace my battery. I'll see if I can survive until payday so I can get another one.

Thanks for all the hard work you put into this ROM. :good:
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
TW requires radio signal to locate with gps. There is a http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21339400mod, rather risky, that improves on this. My experience with it being autonomous with radio connection is that despite being modded, it still needs to initially have a radio connection to get the gps location. After that, it can lose radio and keep gps location as long as the gps is detected. There is an existing gps mod installed on this ROM. I can get accurate gps location in my house rather quickly with both mods installed but not in airplane mod.

For battery testing, have you tested with no data restore? If not, I'd suggest backing up your sdcard, reformat it or substitute another temporarily. With only your ROM flashable on sdcard, wipe data, cache and dalvik and flash a ROM to test for battery drain. Still losing power too quickly? Most likely bad battery.

Edit: have you tried ODIN to recover semi-bricked phone? Whenever something is off or unexpected, I ODIN the method linked in OP without the battery. In your case, GPS & battery possibly draining could be related if always trying to sync location and not getting it.

Hey, something weird is going on with a few of my apps. Reddit is fun, facebook, and youtube have been locking up recently. The only way to fix them is to wipe their data or reinstall them, but the problem comes back within a day or so. This sort of thing has never happened to me before. Anyone know what I could try to fix them? Could this be the v6 scripts?

Whats strange is that everything else is working just fine. When the bug occurs, the whole phone lags if I try starting one of those apps, then they eventually open and lock up. The only way to stop the lag is to hit home and let it exit slowly.

Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
I have a couple of ROMs that I was holding to release once the blacked-out Google Play app is updated. I just started uploading them with the older released inverted app for you to test. Your problem sounds like corrupted data; some apps seem to do that to older android builds. At any rate, these builds have no SuperCharger scripts but use a slightly modified script borrowed from Cut & Paste. Any further suspected script issues, just delete /system/etc/zzedittweak.

As far as V6 SuperCharger integration is concerned, I wouldn't pin the blame on it so quickly. The kernel is reliable so I elected an option not to panic on oops in the V6 script. Also, the dev (me; sorry) has found some flaws in the flash-integration and fixes have actually yielded a flash that does not need the extra reboot after flash to start the script 100%. It's more of a flash and done integration but I'm still testing and tweaking.

For now, I'd recommend the newer builds until next update. Clean version has the AOSP lock-screen and NonSuper version has the TW lock-screen with animated pull-down. Clean=no SuperSU but older superuser root and no extras.

Update: Blacked-out Google Play updated today

change log:

updated Google Pay to 4.0.26 from 4/19/2013 Team Blackout

removed V6_SuperCharger scripts

Non-Super version has the improved pull-down animation from the Legacy Theme

Clean version has less bloat; no pull-down animation.

Don't panic is disabled; expect reboot on oops.

Modified speedtweak; original borrowed from Cut & Paste; thanks Travis and Nash! (travmofosho & Nashdogg)

Note: Backup your data; the safest/cleanest install method is to wipe data (Factory reset in CWM Recovery) and install.

Screenies? No change; see ones linked in OP. Thanks.

LegacyROM_Clean1.01_MTD.zip Special Instructions: This version uses Chainfire's older superuser root app; please do not update the su binary via superuser app settings (updated su binary is buggy; gives you black-screen-'til-homed instead of app Force Closures. Not to worry, I just know of ways to test and confirm this); however, you can update the superuser application in market.

LegacyROM_NonSuper1.02_MTD.zip (No SU binary update special instructions apply on this version; uses Chainfire's suggested root app)

i went for the latest nonsuper version

everything is really nice with it and i like it a lot

one issue...i cant install miui stock music 1.0 app

its always worked on roms including cleanGB, legendary, TPR...etc

any help resolving this issue appreciated

its been a long time since i had a rom it didn't install on and its my favorite music app
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
Are you pushing this to /system/app folder? Did you try opening the archive and moving to Legacy ROM archive before flashing?

Trying myself on NonSuper, now; just downloaded for test.

EDIT: Reading the thread, I get the impression that it may depend on the stock player for missing functionality. I may have to add the stock music player for this to work on Legacy. Not sure, just my first guess.
[Epic 4G Android Development] eigerzoom:
i'm using titanium backup to restore the app which yes pushes it to the system/app folder

i see its putting an odex file for com.miui.music in the system/app folder as well which i have also deleted multiple times and still unsuccessful

i also found an miui music folder in system or data somewhere which was clearly linked to the install, also tried deleting that

hope it helps
[Epic 4G Android Development] samep:
Sounds like you a odexed version; not sure if that's your problem. The apk I downloaded does not appear to be signed; so I think because it won't side-load for me. I was able to drag it to /system/app archive folder prior to flashing and it works that way. Can you try that?

If you need a deodexed version, try this one for now.
