[HTC Desire V] Deleted member 5186178:
DISCONTINUED

Sorry, I just sold my phone, and I can't develop for it anymore. I will keep these threads for you guys until something better will occur, but I will have some trouble to solve the problems. Thank you for all appreciations.

-- If this will help, you can still say thank you :) -- press the Thanks button! :good:

I was never a fan of sense, and if I would knew what is that when I bought the phone, I would have different phone now.

But, I made a version based on HTC T328W European ROM 1.73.401.4, with less sense possible without breaking HTC system.

FEATURES

- I integrated the new SOLO Launcher Free, which is very good.

- I replaced a lot of apps with better ones

- I let sense 4 lockscreen in place because I like to see who is calling before answering, and also it's not unlocking automaticaly when receive a call like a third party lockscreen - but you are free to replace this with what you want.

- I integrated Sony Bravia Engine 2 and Xloud.

- I aplied Supercharger and init.d from my other ROM.

- and many other things...

The ROM is optimized, zipaligned, odexed or deodexed at your choice.

Untill now, the ROM is very fast, stable and smooth, and it seems to be more friendly with battery. I didn't see any bugs. If you do, please tell me to solve them.

INSTALLATION

To install, it's the same procedure you know:

Connect your sdcard to computer with a sdcard adapter, or in recovery with USB Mount, and delete these folders:

Copy this ROM zip to sdcard. Reinsert sdcard in your phone.

1. boot in bootloader (from shutt down mode, press vol down and briefly the power button at the same time and keep pressing vol down untill bootloader starts and then press power again to enter in fastboot)

2. connect your phone to computer

3. flash recovery [fastboot flash recovery maxrecovery6.img] - if you don't have a custom recovery, or if you want to try one of my versions

4. flash boot [fastboot flash boot desenboot.img] -see attachments (if you are running european version, you don't need to do that)

5. press power to return to bootloader

6. press vol down to select recovery and then press power - the phone will reboot in recovery.

7. Go advanced - wipe Dalvik cache, confirm

8. Go back, and then wipe all data/factory reset

9. Install zip from sdcard

10. choose ROM zip and confirm install

11. Wait, it will take some time

12. After install finished, reboot phone

First boot will last a litle bit longer (more minutes if your sdcard has a lower class).

After phone start, in first home screen, press home buton to start Settings phone wizard (you will see a home sign in notifications bar - that's what it means); if you don't want to do that you can't enter to your phone. The settings wizard is the classic one from htc. After that, you will figure out what to do :)

Enjoy!

DOWNLOADS - version 4 updated

1. Deodexed version - only app folder

2. Version with Gapps included

UPDATES:

Rebuilded ROM, removed buggy apps, slimed without gapps. These can be flashed separately if you need them. Also gapps zip will replace the calendar with stock one.

QUICK TIP:

If you like to customize the ROM, and after that to odex it, it's easy.

Download the deodexed version, flash it, remove apps you don't need, add apps you want. At this part, stay away from HTC apps, they are already striped out at maxim.

Then connect the phone to PC in charging mode, open a command prompt terminal where do you have adb installed and type:

Code:

adb remount <Enter> (this will start adb server and remount your phone system - you should see 'remount succeeded')
adb shell <Enter> (you enter in phone root shell)
dexo <Enter> (and wait for the phone to restart - it will take up to 2 min)

The odexer method is developed by tommytomatoe and presented here.

You only have to do what I wrote, the ROM is already prepared for that, and all my ROMs are.

If you choose to try this ROM, I assume that you know what you are doing, and I am not responsible if you brick your phone.
