I love this Rom with the exception of the bugs listed previously. Any time table on getting these fixes done? Is it because USCC is going to push 2.2 froyo through soon? Knowing USCC, they won't allow their customers the ability to allow their phone to act as a hotspot. I've pushed this through today but he wifi and hotspot isn't working and I need that aspect. Thanks for a great rom for us bottom dwelling CDMA users. I've since flashed back to cyan for these particular reasons...
[Desire Android Development] leadfoot9281:
Yea, I hope cellular south or uscc gets its 2.2 out soon so we can make our own version lol

[Desire Android Development] computmaxer:
Any updates on this? I'd really love to get my hands on a working CDMA Froyo Sense ROM!
[Desire Android Development] coolcole1:
just try it
[Desire Android Development] computmaxer:
It's close... WiFi and Orientation are kind of big things to be missing though. To the point where I'm going to have to just wait till there is a working version.
[Desire Android Development] mschmitt01:
I spoke with dphase on Twitter. He said its a dead project. Anyone who feels like taking it on, feel free. dphase is focused on MIUI from now on. Just a FYI.

Plus cell south announced they will release 2.2 in quarter1 of 2010 and it will be so much easier than porting a gsm rom and more stable.
[Desire Android Development] Cythrawl:
Sorry but quarter 1 of 2010 was almost a year ago... I think you meant 2011 :D
[Desire Android Development] mercuryblue:
can you pls tell me the last update version from us cellular ??
[Desire Android Development] mschmitt01:
Yea. If you have us cellular and aren't running a custom rom than you have the latest and ONLY version.
[Desire Android Development] bra402913:
idk

i kinda feel sad that no one is going to take this on....

i really like sense and froyo together.

im not complaining or anything, just wondering if there is anyone out there that is even a little interested...
[Desire Android Development] leadfoot9281:
This was a GSM port to CDMA but cellular south and uscc say they will have a official 2.2 out by the end of the first quarter of 11 so at least then it would be a full working build. Just be patient somebody will pick that one up

Sent from my desire with SWYPE sorry bout the spelling
[Desire Android Development] AKDMA:
According to the latest press release, the Desire will have official 2.2 by the end of the month if that's what you're after. There are already almost daily usable 2.3 roms out though.
[Desire Android Development] bra402913:
okay thanks. and i know when uscc said about the update i just kinda thought to have a more, u know, customized version. and i really had no idea theres a stable cdma desire gingerbread rom...haha.

could somone post a link if they know a somewhat stable one?

[Desire Android Development] AKDMA:
No prob.. I gotta say, for the small amount of attention UD gets, it's an awesome rom. Lots of really cool little features cooked in and options, some of which CM doesn't even have. At least until CM gets a bit more worked out, I'm running UD. They've only released one build so far and it's spot on.
[Desire Android Development] bra402913:
exactly. im using UD as a daily rom, everything i experience in the rom absolutely blows me away. they mite not release as quick as people like, but when they do, just amazing. im experienced no problems what so ever.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danuttah:
Hi there, I have recently got around to rooting my HTC Hero. I have rooted it via the Androot one-click software and then flashed a recovery ROM via the Terminal Emulator. Upon rebooting the phone, I get into the Recovery Menu without any problems.

However, if I then boot the phone back up, shutdown again, and then try to get into the Recovery Menu, I have faced with the red triangle with the explanation mark (which I believe is the standard recovery menu). Any ideas why? Basically, it seems I can only access the Recovery Menu on the first reboot after which is reverts to the standard recovery menu....

Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere, I have searched but could only find people asking the question without any answers.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captainstu72:
Standard roms have the original bootloader in. When you reboot into it, it will re apply it from what I understand - put on a custom rom and this issue goes away :)

First off, let me just say that this forum rocks. Compared to other forums, this one has the best and most talented folks! :D

Here's what I'm trying to do... As I browse through all of these wonderful themes and customizations, I'd like to take bits & pieces from each and make my own custom theme. :rolleyes:

I'm running stock sense and using LauncherPro Plus. I really just want to add the following elements:

Glowing circle battery icon

50% shade notifications

Darkstar custom font

Hide location icon

Custom status bar icon colors (see attached)

yellow clock

yellow 3g signal

blue bluetooth icon

red mute/silent mode

green wi-fi signal

Then, have all of this in one, easy, neat update.zip file. Is this possible? I've read posts about using MetaMorph, but I don't think you can customize these pieces individually, correct? :confused:

Thanks!!

Not working consistently... unsure why at this time.

This is an app i am currently developing.

The goal is to be able to set up a profile like "At Work" then enable it when you are at work, and it will respond to text messages with specific messages.

Profile specific

Personal - first if there is a specific response for the person

Group - second if there is no personal, if that person is in a group with a message

General - third if no person or group message, send a generic message

It is in its infancy, but right now it should respond to a message sent by anyone with one customizable general message.

There is an on/off switch in the app.

===WARNING===

this app is currently in development, I don't give any promises to stability at this time.

Hey everyone!

In case you haven't noticed, the MIUI ROM (and also the Galaxy S) have the 'bounce back' animation, where scrolling doesn't just stop at the end of a list, but bounce to show you that you've reached the end.

I think this makes scrolling appear much more fluid and I'd like to get that behavior on a 'normal' Desire ROM.

Do you think it's possible to extract this from MIUI and if so, will you help me?
[Desire Themes and Apps] Jgruar:
Haha, I just thought it to be extremely irritating when i want to reach the bottom one fast and not wait it to bounce around till i can click it
[Desire Themes and Apps] mr.r9:
^The Samsung animation is much more 'fluid' and normal, MIUI is a bit too bouncy.

I'd like to have this too!
[Desire Themes and Apps] crow26:
OK, so, MIUI or Galaxy. Who can do it?
[Desire Themes and Apps] d3sm0nd:
You can do it yourself... get the framework-res.apk from a Galaxy S ROM, extract it and take the anim folder.

Then get framework-res.apk from your ROM and replace the anim folder with the one from the Galaxy S ROM... it should work.
[Desire Themes and Apps] mr.r9:
I only managed to change the windows animations, but not the scrolling behavior.
[Desire Themes and Apps] crow26:
There are "bounce" xml files in there, but unfortunately nothing happens when I replace the anim folder in the framework-res.apk. Not even the window animations change.

EDIT: OK, so changing the window animations DOES work. That's a start. Now, how can we change the scrolling animations?
[Desire Themes and Apps] mr.r9:
:( Someone with better technical abilities than me & you is needed, that's what I've concluded :(
[Desire Themes and Apps] crow26:
Agree... hope someone can help.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laramiebates:
When you open vlingo and select in car it will turn on safe reader that automatically reads incoming texts, which you said you dint want. Under the incar menu though is a big safe reader button that let's you choose which text you want read.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kraion:
Hello!

As the title says, is there any custom dial tones? The sounds while you dial a number are so damn annoying and ugly (Yes, I do know how to turn them off). I'm amazed that no cook has come up with the idea of changing the default sounds.

Is this a technical issue? - As in for example, automated menus that react to stuff like "Press ONE for english, two for Suhali, eth. " don't like custom tones?

I'd really appreciate some help!

Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdanko:
I consider myself a smart guy. I am also pretty tenacious when it comes to problem solving.

While my goal is simple, the work required to achieve it may be daunting.

I am sick and tired of AT&T's bloatware, branding and other nonsense and I want to create a ROM with the following:

* Stock Android 2.2 OS + Samsung drivers

* Minimal set of required applications and services required to run the OS plus the following add-ons:

1) ROM Manager

2) Titanium Backup

3) Root

Ideally I'd get the 2.2 source from Google, build it, add the Samsung drivers, and get the filesystem layout. Then I would be able to add in the apks as necessary.

Perhaps I am biting off more than I can chew at this point, but I don't know. I've searched for articles on building custom ROMs but most are pretty old and outdated.

Am I crazy here? Is this doable?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Algorismus:
You are not crazy, you can do it. And please write an uptodate tutorial about building custom ROMs.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdanko:
Well I need to find a basic HOWTO for building ROMs that isnt > 1 year old. I am hunting for something reliable.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdanko:
I found a good HOWTO here but it's for the Desire.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=709105

There is reference to "vendor files" which appear to be device-specific files for the build. Do such animals exist for the Captivate?

That aside, I was able to build a generic Froyo and I have the Captivate kernel source downloaded from Samsung. Once I can make this build image Captivate-specific I can tie it all together with the kernel.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdanko:
The vendor files are available at Samsung, too, but the files appear to be 2.1-specific as referenced in this text file:

1. Get android open source.

: version info - Android eclair 2.1 (android-2.1_r2)

( Download site : http://source.android.com )

2. Overwrite modules that you want to build.

3. Add the following lines at the end of build/target/board/generic/BoardConfig.mk

BOARD_HAVE_BLUETOOTH := true

BT_USE_BTL_IF := true

BT_ALT_STACK := true

BRCM_BTL_INCLUDE_A2DP := true

BRCM_BT_USE_BTL_IF := true

4. make update-api

5. make
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
that would probably be because Samsung has not officially released 2.2 or the source code for it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rob989_69:
Yep, although looks like you're making way more headway than me in the custom ROM front. I'd love a good generic walk though. There is nothing I've found other than either very technical, or very vague information.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdanko:
Once I have the process down I will write up a *very* detailed walk through. Just help me get to that point. :D

I do have a question.

Building the ROM and building the kernel are independent of one another, right? I don't need to replace the kernel as well, do I? Looking at my Nandroid backups I have the following files:

cache.img

data.img

datadata.img

system.img

nandroid.md5

It is my understanding that the kernel is called zImage. So with that said, if I am able to build the aforementioned .img files I should be able to build the ROM, right?

Thoughts?

Furthermore, since Samsung hasn't released the 2.2 sources yet I will just use 2.1 as a test bed. As stated previously, my goal is to create a 100% plain vanilla ROM for the Captivate and I think with all of you to support me I can do that. From there we can add more useful things if need be. But for now, I want to make it stock.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdanko:
I had jdk 1.6 and had previously just commented out the java version check as outlined in another HOWTO. But I opted to just grab the 1.5 jdk from Sun (Oracle)

make update-api looks good:

gdanko@gdanko-desktop:~/android_build/mydroid$ make update-api

============================================

PLATFORM_VERSION_CODENAME=REL

PLATFORM_VERSION=2.1-update1

TARGET_PRODUCT=generic

TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT=eng

TARGET_SIMULATOR=

TARGET_BUILD_TYPE=release

TARGET_ARCH=arm

HOST_ARCH=x86

HOST_OS=linux

HOST_BUILD_TYPE=release

BUILD_ID=ECLAIR

============================================

However, I am told newer versions of gcc are problematic with Android so I want to find gcc3.4 which I believe is the best version to build Android. Assuming this builds okay and I think it will, how do I get the apks into the .img files?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdanko:
After merging Samsung's files into the Eclair source the build is complete!

gdanko@gdanko-desktop:~/android_build/mydroid/out/target/product/generic$ ls -l *.img

-rw-r--r-- 1 gdanko gdanko 159163 2010-10-13 08:42 ramdisk.img

-rw------- 1 gdanko gdanko 57541440 2010-10-13 08:42 system.img

-rw------- 1 gdanko gdanko 2112 2010-10-13 08:42 userdata.img

Now, my Nandroid backups have the following files:

bash-3.2$ ls -l

-rw-rwxr-x system sdcard_rw 268821696 2010-10-04 15:01 system.img

-rw-rwxr-x system sdcard_rw 162976704 2010-10-04 15:02 data.img

-rw-rwxr-x system sdcard_rw 1203840 2010-10-04 15:02 datadata.img

-rw-rwxr-x system sdcard_rw 16896 2010-10-04 15:02 cache.img

-rw-rwxr-x system sdcard_rw 179 2010-10-04 15:03 nandroid.md5

I am noticing that a stock AT&T Captivate system.img is considerably larger than my system.img. Is this okay?

Also, I am missing data.img, datadata.img, and cache.img in my build. Any idea why?

So... assuming this IS successul, what do I need to do next to use this ROM? I will obviously first test it on the emulator. Furthermore, I want to verify if I can just leave the stock Captivate kernel in place.

Any thoughts?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
i would think it would be fine to leave the captivate kernel in place. i am curious to see where this goes.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdanko:
I am trying to get the emulator set up to see if my ROM image works. I am confident it will. I wont build a 2.2 ROM until I have a 2.2 kernel. There is no config on the device so I don't know the kernel settings. Too risky for me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave the Knave:
This is pretty interesting. I'll be subscribing to this thread for updates. It would be cool if someone actually made some progress on an AOSP 2.2 rom for us.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdanko:
I am pretty confident my 2.1 ROM will work. If it does, the 2.2 will be a slam dunk provided Samsung gives us the SGH-I897 files.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdanko:
Talking to a guy here at work I found out:

* data.img is /data

* datadata.img is /data/data

This is not created when I build my ROM. Is there an option to build data.img? I believe /data is needed in order to boot.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdanko:
Here are the first images of my ROM running on the emulator. Only real problem is that calendar crashes. I will any ideas why??? :/

Enclosing logcat output. It looks like the calendar is trying to connect to google and cannot since the apis are missing. I don't think it's an issue with the ROM itself.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdanko:
I bit the bullet and installed the ROM to my device to see what it'd do. I of course created a Nandroid backup first. ;)

The ROM did install successfully via this method:

1) From my Linux box, md5sum system.img > nandroid.md5

2) mkdir /mnt/captivate/clockworkmod/backup/Test

3) cp system.img /mnt/captivate/clockworkmod/backup/Test/

4) cp nandroid.md5 /mnt/captivate/clockworkmod/backup/Test/

5) Run CWM and Backup Current ROM

6) Run CWM and boot into recovery

7) From recovery mode, factory reset the device

8) From recovery mode, restore "Test"

9) From recovery mode, reboot!

The ROM actually booted up with the following issues:

1) No internet access. Most likely because I have not installed the radio's software? How and where do I get it?

2) The screen flickers like crazy. I am not sure why. In the Samsung directory there is an OpenGL archive. I should see if I can use that to fix screen issues.

3) Calendar crashes, this happens in the emulator too. adb logcat shows the calendar is trying to reach Google but the APIs are not installed.

4) The "Product" in Settings > About is "generic". How can I make that "SAMSUNG-SGH-I897"? Just change the environment variable?

I am looking forward to your replies! I think with the help of the community I can rid the Captivate (and other devices) of the tyranny that is crapware!
