My little contribution to the android comunity

What kind of work does he do? Have him send his info to me as well, I'm in Phoenix.

I can't wait for 1.6 with the New Market and everything. :)
[G1 Android Development] here.david:
While waiting I found:

TMO-OTA-US-DRC83-Rooted_update (enomther)

it is 1.6 (Donut)....while a little harder to get everything xROM has running "stock" it is 1.6....:D...tried others and this is the fastest running 'stock', less problems for me...
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I'm forwarding your email now.
[G1 Android Development] ccriffman:
Hey- compared to 1.5r4, what made the rom listed above (enmother's) any better? I am very happy with r4, but would like to try the above while waiting for jac, manup and mike to finish their work. Do you really like it that much more? Just curious- chris
[G1 Android Development] blueheeler:
I have been using enmother's TheOfficial for several weeks now. In the grand scheme of things, I prefer xROM. It is incredibly stable, fast and has everything you really need to have your phone tricked-out nicely.

So why am I using TheOfficial for now? Basically, just boredom. I also wanted to try out the features of "Donut". enmother has also added an awful lot of tweaks and cutting-edge features to make it a standout amongst all the latest roms. It's far more stable and faster than Cyanogen's (IMHO).

With that said, do I find "Donut" features compelling enough to make a permanent switch? No. And why haven't I taken the time to switch back xROM? Laziness. I'm checking each day hoping for an xROM update. I want to do a completely fresh install when I go back to xROM (the next release of xROM will likely be my rom of choice). I don't want to waste much of my time going to the current xROM only to have to reformat and install and setup all over again when the next xROM comes out.

I'm not the least bit torn between xROM and TheOfficial. It's just a matter of waiting for the next xROM release. But I don't want to discount enmother's release either. If you're clammoring for Donut features, TheOfficial is THE choice to go with. But for the ultimate in stability and a rom that "just works" without any fuss, you simply can't go wrong with xROM. enmother's TheOfficial does have a bit of an install quirk called "expsetup" (expansion pack) that is far different of an implementation than anything we've seen in other roms. It's a no-fuss way of getting your system optimized quickly and easily. It's just a bit different and easily overlooked the 1st time you install. But once you realize what's neccessary, it's a breeze. And you'll have most every experimental/cutting-edge feature out there.

Basic benefit of enmother's TheOfficial: Donut.

Basic benefit of xROM (current): Stability.

Depending upon what you are wanting, either will do you fine.

And thanks to switchrom, hopping back and forth (as I often do) is a 5 minute procedure.

Ir's all a matter of choice, and that's a good thing.

As Fedora is my Linux distro of choice, xROM is my phone rom of choice. But it's fun to try other distros/roms. I always go back to Fedora, and I see myself going back to xROM too. I'm just waiting for the next release, and I'll be right back to xROM.

Mike can probably add to this discussion better than anyone else.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I spoke with JAC briefly. He was very appreciative of everyone's support. He said he would be contacting all of the people who sent emails or posted contact information. Thanks guys.
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
Hey Mike Tell Jac thanks for all the hard work and if he ever wants to go get a coffee or beer my treat.:D

xROM is so awesome. I cant wait for the new build. I am patiently waiting.
[G1 Android Development] cwilliams:
Not to revive an old issue, but was there ever a solution to the camcorder FCs?

And here's hoping that the next version of xROM, whenever its ready, supports Sapphire :)
[G1 Android Development] trclev:
cm 4.2 out

I see that Cyanogen has come out with his stable 4.2 version. Still going to hang with xROM. Just reformated my sd card and set it to 64 swap and reflashed xROM 1.5r4... so I can wait till dust settles here and see what happens with this rom.
[G1 Android Development] shoharry:
Funny that you should mention that. I just rooted and flashed 1.5r4, and I noticed that when I stopped recording with the camcorder that there was an FC. But the movie was recorded, and I figured that was more than I had with the stock rom so I was still ahead of the game even if I had to restart the camcorder to film another clip. Worth it for how great this rom is. I felt like the phone all of a sudden cam alive when I switched to xRom!

Now we just have to find Jac (and me) a job!
[G1 Android Development] dincp:
Is that still working solidly for you? It only seems to last about an hour for me. :confused:
[G1 Android Development] Ryanmo5:
I still run 1.4r3, it runs the best imo. The newer versions give me a lot of audio and call problems. Doesn't seem to happen to anyone else though. I would love to have the new market with this build but as far as donut is concerned I'm not a huge fan of it, cyanogen or regular it lags too much for my taste. Hopefully jac or whoever takes it on can get it to run better for xrom builds. I like a lot of little things about xrom like the advanced launcher is built into the build and I can use bettercut and mybackup with it. I like how when you set the wallpaper it goes to the main screen after it sets wallpaper. Its by far the best rom overall imo. Smooth, stable and decked out. I am a huge supporter of jac, manup and mike I will try and get jac what I can but I'm having hard times as well. Believe me mike if I could I would give him the rent money haha.
[G1 Android Development] twflys:
is there anyway to increase the call volume on this rom? I love it, but have a hard time hearing ppl... granted I don't have the best hearing in the world either. I tried 'audio hack' to no avail with call volume. Anyone?

Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] shengyi:
I had donated some money to jac for this good work, i personally find that xROM is really solid build and love to keep it around, but i do have the itch to flash other roms for the fun (I'm sure you guys knows how i feel). If you guys released a full version based on donut, i'll sure be 1 of first few to flash it and keep it for at least a month :D

Btw is it possible to release theme template for the themers? Manup's design is great but it makes some text really hard to read at times due to the blacky template. Its also because i am quite attracted to moonspoon's chrome theme at the same time (no offense manup :)).
[G1 Android Development] Paging Dr B:

I'm over 1.6 already. ;)

How about xRom 2.0?
[G1 Android Development] lucky 69:
ya i second that !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)
[G1 Android Development] trclev:
This is stable

so glad I stayed with xROM. CM 4.2.1 is running into alot of bugs and glitches. I tried CM 4.0.4 when I first rooted, then tried Xrom, never doubted my choice (expecially now). Waiting patiently for the stable xROM update.
[G1 Android Development] Slimmoo:
Odd issue

im having a odd issue, i can't browse the web or use any web like data programs when I am not connected to a wireless network. Everything else is working fine, calls,sms, just not data. I get "an error has occured while fetching data." when i use the facebook app, and "no connection" when using the gmail app. Anyone have any idea why?

I am using a htc dream on rogers in canada.

You probably have the wrong spl
[G1 Android Development] saprano614:
any word on wether jac is gonna let yall have the keys to the kingdom, mike?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I'm not sure. I haven't heard back from him on it. Even if he does, I will be like the 16 year old who got dad's keys to the Ferrari (while Kate Beckinsale is still sitting in the drivers seat). It will take a little bit to figure out what to do.
[G1 Android Development] saprano614:
lol that is too funny
[G1 Android Development] twflys:
drive it like you stole it Mike.
[G1 Android Development] Paging Dr B:
love the kate beckinsale and ferrari reference ;)
[G1 Android Development] Introspektive:
Lol nice comparison. No worries though, Any progress on this is appreciated. I'm really surprised how outdated it is and still one of the most stable and usable roms IMO.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I thought of you on that one Dr B
[G1 Android Development] GBerg2119:
Quick question. I'm currently using JACxHEROSkiv v2.1 and I'm thinking of moving to xRom. I'm having some issues with the Hero rom. Is the process of moving to xRom the same as if I were to upgrade to the latest hero rom? I just dont wanna mess anything up. Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
It's basically the same. Wipe your ext partition, wipe your phone, and load it up. You can use a 64MB swap partition if you are on 1.5r3. Look back a few pages I have some instructions for making 1.5r3 run faster instead of installing 1.5r4.
[G1 Android Development] c_licious:
outdated

I understand why everyone here is so in love with xRom, I'm a huge fan myself but in my opinion CM 4.2.2 is just as fast and almost as stable (small traid off for global search and new market). Haven't had any of the above mentioned problems with cyanogens newest update in fact it seemed to handle all my home screen widgets even a tad bit better. At this point I think the rest of the world is going to run eclair before xRom gets updated. I gotta give it to Jac though, impressive that his rom is performing as great as it is despite becoming majorly outdated.
[G1 Android Development] senaia:
i'll be completely honest here, i'm testing out hero and sense roms, just to see what they're like, but i always come back to this, mostly because it looks cool and runs without problems. i recently tried cyanogen's latest but had problems wih gtalk and gallery, in the main section of the gallery, all the folder names were buggy as hell, and gtalk would only show my side of the conversation, i was having to read the notification instead of the convo. sure the global search is fun, and his video player is definately handy for watchinng episode of The Guild, and Doctor Horible's sing along blog, but i missed the awesome styling too much, so came back lol. now i'm just waiting for the real 1.1 version of CCyrowski's herosense, which our trusty friend mike and the fantabulous manup are helpng with, or learning from... or both... either way they're involved. When JAC manages to sort personal things out i'm pretty sure you'll see the biggest update possible, kinda like going from a fiat 500, to a ferrari with kate bekinsale as the passenger

(thats for you dr B :D)
[G1 Android Development] josvink66:
hello,

First of all, Great rom! I love it!

But I found a little problem! I don't know if it's just me or more people have this problem. But sometimes when I try to send a mms the phone jumps back to the android load screen.. and after that I have to enter my pin again.. It doesn't always happen but sometimes! But the person I send the mms to gets the mms like nothing happend.. it's not a big deal but sometimes a little annoying:p

This is the way I send the mms:

I go to my Camera en take a picture!

Then I select that i want to send the image.

Then i choose messaging. then I type a receiver.. a message end I send it.. en than i got kickt to the Android load screen...

anyone else got the same problem?

Sorry for my bad English I'm dutch!

Greetings,

Jos Vink
[G1 Android Development] senaia:
before you came to xrom, did you wipe your phone and ext partition? could be conflicting files if you didn't
[G1 Android Development] josvink66:
yes i wiped the phone! but my SD card is only formated to FAT32!
[G1 Android Development] senaia:
ok, which SPL do you have?

make sure you have haykuro's .2005 SPL, if not, go get it, but be very careful, there is a chance it can brick your phone if instructions are not followed propperly
[G1 Android Development] josvink66:
I just follow the first page of this tread and in there was a link

[G1 Android Development] Paging Dr B:
I need to get in touch with Kate Beckinsale's agent and get her to be the official face of xRom. Hmm I wonder how hard that would be...
[G1 Android Development] twflys:
I was really hoping to get an update before I left town for a few weeks on Monday. If he can update the ROM and up the 'in-call' volume a few notches I'll send him $20 before I go.......

Regardless, thanks for the great ROM! Seriously, this ROM is having a positive impact on the environment- if it weren't for xROM I would have chunked this phone a few months back. And looking at the garbage T-Mobile has coming out compared to everyone else, I might be keeping this phone even longer.

Long live the G1!!!!!
[G1 Android Development] senaia:
Kate could be hard to get, but Sharon Den Adel may be easier and a really nice substitute, I wouldn't complain :) (voice from within temptation if you don't know)
[G1 Android Development] renegadedj:
someone better release an update for xROM before this threads topic derails like amtrak. lmao
[G1 Android Development] Paging Dr B:
too late ;)
[G1 Android Development] trclev:
how far did jac get

I know Jac was working on the new xRom when he ran into his personal problem. Does anyone know how far he got into the rom update? Was he nearer the end or start.
[G1 Android Development] bennyhanna:
im a newb and not embarrassed to ask but do all themes need partitioning in order to apply them even when I have the cyangen auto update app?
[G1 Android Development] twflys:
so what other roms are out there that are similar (same enhancements and just as stable)- but still being updated??

thx
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
None. If there were these guys wouldn't be hanging around talking about kate beckinsale ;)
[G1 Android Development] here.david:
A sign of just how great this rom is...almost two months from the last update....a life time by update standards....and folks still check in....:eek:
[G1 Android Development] spigatelli:
I am not sure I understand what you are asking. Are you using xrom? if so, why do you have the cy updater? You would use that if you were using a Cy rom.

I wouldn't thing you "need" to partition to install a theme, but why are you not partitioned now? It gives you more room for apps.
[G1 Android Development] renegadedj:
CHECK-In! g'morning you sloppy bi***es! haha

you know i never asked, but was there ever a way to get the notification bar and notification drop down to have white text? like an easy flash update or something?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I'm going to talk to Manup. If nothing else he could create a new theme for xROM and have you guys install it that way. Also, I have an idea on getting you guys an update. No promises yet but I'm working on it.
[G1 Android Development] zimphishmonger:
is JAC still outta the game??
[G1 Android Development] renegadedj:
looks like real life is governing that man's virtuality. hahaha. but with MikeTaylor around, well we'll see but, looks like something will be happening with this awesome ROM again soon ;)
[G1 Android Development] turboyo:
Does anyone know where the powerwidget apk is located for this?? I want to use it on another rom but can't find it anywhere in the zip
[G1 Android Development] Stericson:
I have removed the Links in the OP. I sent a message to the OP about the fact that his rom contained some WAREZ and gave him 24 hours to have this resolved.

Below is the message I sent:

Once the link to this rom reappears I WILL be re-checking it for Warez and if there are still warez I WILL Lock the thread.

For more information please refer to:

[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Stericson,

JAC is MIA due to some personal issues. He may not get the message in the next 24hrs. Is there anything I can do to help take care of this issue?
[G1 Android Development] Stericson:
Sure, see in my post to him what he needed to remove? If you would like you can clean his roms up and repost them for him.

I cant put them in his post without his permission but you are more then welcomed to post the links in this thread to the cleaned up versions.

Stericson
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I'll do that tomorrow. Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] Stericson:
Anytime, if you have question just shoot me a pm.

Thanks for helping us out.
[G1 Android Development] trclev:
Anyway to get the new market up and running on xROM? Seems to be quiet since last few post about warez. Hope this does not effect xROM in bad way. Still best rom out there.
[G1 Android Development] strikerz911:
Yes, this is the best rom out there imo, I just wish we could have an update. =(
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I will be removing the warez from the builds and posting them in the thread. I'll ask stericson to post a link to my thread in the first post. Then I'm talking to Manup about the possibility of at least updating the theme.
[G1 Android Development] cmsweet21:
yah, update plz...
[G1 Android Development] Ducter:
xROM was/is always a stable. I know guys will cook up what they want but I dont personally care for all these different hero/sense ports.. I dont know how many of the same ROMs we need, I know I know, changes made to the kernel or whatnot but to me, the end user its all the same. I can say that the speed from the first few releases of hero compared to the latest builds is a job well done and worthy of a release beyond question.

I know that a lot of people on here are all about hero or sense and think its just the greatest thing for Android ever and I will admit it does look nice but I myself need bluetooth so that kinda kills off some of the desire to run one of the many releases...I wouldnt consider buying a phone that didnt have BT, so I wont run a ROM that doesnt have it. Thats just me though.

I am not trying to bash any of the people that release ROMs as its more than I can do, but IMHO more of the same doesnt equal better. xROM was always my go to ROM, like back in high school, you know, the go to girl, always ready, willing and with out question ready for whatever.

Real life takes priority over anything and everything else. I just hope that whatever JAC's real life issues are that they arent health, job or relationship issues..most else will pass in time and thats when we will see a new, much anticipated xROM.
[G1 Android Development] clintz:
I just wanted to pop in here to say "me too"

I have been using xROM for a few months now with nothing even tempting me to replace it.

Best themed, stability, and speed.

I will say that I am eager for an update, but I am still very happy with what I have now, so a big Thank You from me, to all the devs with a hand in this rom. :)
[G1 Android Development] d3rrty1:
I have recently switched roms to TheOfficial's AOSP+ADP 1.6 build and i must say, if you want speed and stability to pretty much match xROM's, that's the best choice.

If I wanted another ROM, I would just buy the new phone. Then BT would work ;) but huge kudos to the devs here that bring the ROMs to our G1s because without them, we would all probably be stuck running stock phones with all of 20 apps tops that are locked to T-Moblow... I mean T-Mobile :p

All in all, this is the best ROM I have ever had the opportunity to play with on a daily basis since the first serious ROM I have ever used which was JF v1.51. I can't wait for an update so that I can become a faithful xROM user once again =]
[G1 Android Development] timelyne:
any updates when will the link will be replace?
[G1 Android Development] senaia:
patience young Jedi, mike here is still learning the ways of the droid, he has volunteered to help keep the forum clean by removing warez from this rom and reposting. as of yet the only news on an update is.. let me see if i can remember this without looking back..."progress is being made, but due to life problems, there will be delays"

so updates are on the way, life comes first tho, and Mike is doing his best to remove warez from the rom, i'm personally not sure if it's just removing the apk, or if framework goes with it, but it will come, you'll get your xrommy goodness sooner or later

oh, and it's a no-go getting kate bekinsale to be the face of xrom, her agent's turned me down :P
[G1 Android Development] dixon_coxon:
I feel your pain!!!!. I'm a great fan of the XROM and every day and night I'm itching to flash something new but there's just nothing out there but a bunch of "Hero" ROM's. I love the HERO (seriously considering buying the handset) but just the BT ruins it for me. The Hero Rom's have come a very long way and more props to the devs for the mile stone accomplishment. I think a good direction would be rather than the many hero versions out there, lets all take a break and fix BT........ that would be a 1000 mile stone event!!!! That would add sooooooo much value to the phone, it would be unbelievable......

That said, I will continue to itch, wait and watch this thread for the next update (I hope it happens before I actually get the Hero). Thanks for the great work guys! Only if I could develop a ROM :(
[G1 Android Development] Vae Hostilis:
Sorry if this has been clarified, I searched with no results, but I went to JAC's site and downloaded 1.5r4, then seen this thread. what versions should I avoid? just 1.5r4?
[G1 Android Development] renegadedj:
in order to avoid a version of xROM, you would need to have a good reason, for example: you don't want the stericson lockscreen? try 1.5r1 (i believe dont quote me)

i don't understand asking which versions you should avoid, because to my knowledge, they're all good, and we're being updated to increase speed and modification to original cupcake build.
[G1 Android Development] fastludeh22:
What is the latest version? I have a xrom file named cmbase2.1 on my sdcard and was wondering how far behind that is?

Also as far as removing the "warez", its as simple as removing the .apk and resigning. Someone want to pm me the links to the versions, ill help out and do it.

Btw- I thought quickoffice was a free app?
[G1 Android Development] Dyonas:
Quickoffice viewer is free but it doesn't let you view all files and that isn't the one included in some ROMs. The full version is something like $20 or $30, I forgot which.
[G1 Android Development] renegadedj:
the latest version is in the title of the thread. 1.5r4
[G1 Android Development] fastludeh22:
Ok thanks. But is that the name of the file when it downloads? If so any idea what this cmbase2.1 came from? When I flash it, its xrom. if I flash it again, will it tell me which one it is in "about phone"?
[G1 Android Development] renegadedj:
if it flashes, yea check the About Phone in settings.

the current rom is name JAC-xROM-update-1.5r4.zip or something real close to taht
