I've put together a ROM for myself and figured I should share it. This ROM isn't skinned and has as much removed as possible while still maintaining functionality.

This ROM is, of course, deodexed and zipaligned. The APKs have been OptiPNG'd save for the few that became corrupt after this process. This is in an effort to reduce footprint of the ROM and, hopefully, increase overall speed of the phone.

After installation, you'll have approximately 45MB of your internal storage in use.

This ROM does not include a kernel. Find one and flash it on top of this. I recommend GeniusDog254's MixUp kernel. That's what I use and can confirm it works.​

Here is all the removed stuff in one flashable zip. The nice thing about Clockwork Recovery is that by default it does not check for signature. As a result of that, you can download the removed zip, open it with WinRAR/WinZip and delete all the things you don't want. Close it up, flash what's remaining on top of the ROM and you'll be golden. No more screwing around with ADB. Most everything in here is removed for a reason though.

Flashable Modded TouchWiz 3.0 Launcher - 100% Kanged from Schizo's ROM D:

Flashable 'Clock on Bottom' Lockscreen Mod - Thanks kab0b0 - Screenshot

The smaller flashable zips in Schizo's thread should work here as well.

------------

I have included the DRM files in this ROM in order to allow the stock video player to function properly. If you do not want to have to worry about killing the DRM service each boot, download Startup Cleaner 2.0 from the market and disable the startup of the two applications pictured below. You'll need to change the filter in the top right corner to "System Apps" first.

------------

KNOWN ISSUES:

Genie Widget will force close randomly. This has happened on every Android phone I've owned on every ROM. If anyone knows a fix for this, PM me please. $%*& you, Genie Widget.

Time Without Signal

Settings > About Phone > Battery Use > Cell Standby

If you see Time Without Signal in the 30 - 50% range and you haven't been to a no coverage area recently, you're being affected by this bug. Activate and deactivate airplane mode once each boot and you'll see your time without signal percentage fall. This should save battery. (This bug is affecting all DI18 builds. Hopefully Froyo will fix it.)

------------

Greetz:

Boombuler for allowing us to use AppWidgetPicker.

Schizopunk for pointing me in the right direction when it came to several features of the ROM. Specifically the shutdown animation and the Fascinate music player. Thanks, bruddah.

Noobnl for providing the original files this was built from, and essentially making the whole damn thing possible.

Geniusdog254 for providing the kernel that causes this ROM to run well.

Let me know if anyone needs to be added.

We <3 everyone in this thread.

THE BEST ROM YOU'VE EVER TRIED OR DOUBLE YOUR MONEY BACK.​

Downloading now will report back shortly
[Epic 4G Android Development] lviv73:
Good idea but I have reduced Epic Experience and Magic aosp roms to 86mb with everything working(removed all rigtones),and probably can be reduced more if I knew how to remove languages and fonts.
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
Then, perhaps, you should post a ROM. :rolleyes:
[Epic 4G Android Development] jblparisi:
Looking good, specially with the Fascinate player.

Downloading, and will report back soon.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
Thanks illogic, more ROMs is always good ... plan to test this out in a couple of days after some school work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] faheem5:
Please share your ROM!!! not many choices for bare ROMS..
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
If he posts a full ROM that weighs in under 86mb, I will be freaking astonished.
[Epic 4G Android Development] faheem5:
keep getting FC when opening browser :-/
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
Here's a fail safe install method:

1) Use Odin to revert to a stock install of DI18

2) Flash Clockwork Recovery

3) Reboot into Clockwork, wipe data and cache.

4) Flash the ROM.

5) Flash a rooted Kernel.

I followed the above steps exactly. I got a force close while media scanner was running. After that, Browser worked 100%. No force closes or any kind of errors. I rebooted and tried the Browser again and it had no problem there either.

I'm adding links to a newer version which includes the newest Market and fixes the Pandora force close. If you're on an older build and need Pandora fixed, push the build.txt I'll attach here in a moment to /system/build.prop. Thanks~
[Epic 4G Android Development] id_twin:
Waiting 90 secs for download now! Looks good. Will report any bugs.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lviv73:
Dint mean to be negitive just sayin that it can be reduced further.

Reason I dint post any,because they are not really new roms just other peoples roms lightened up and tweaked.But if people want I will post my own personal themed barebones and regular roms that fly as far as speed goes.

I have a themed barebones around 86MB with overclocked kernel,and regular rom that im rockin right now which is barebones with crappy apps removed and competely replaced with better ones,new lwp's,themes,themed swype and themed launchers,i squeezed all this into120MB.

I can post both tomorrow if people want.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dondadah88:
Or post now lol.

Op

Does your music player force close when you put it in disc view?
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
I didn't mean to come off like a **** either. Have a bad habit of that sometimes.

If you have any ideas of what else can be removed without removing function, please let me know. As of now, I'm out of ideas. I'll be up tonight seeing what else can be done. My poor, poor NAND.
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
I haven't tested the music player too much. Deleted my SD's mp3s last night by mistake; will load them back up and see what the deal is.

Update: I am getting the force close. Will look into a fix.

Update update: Looks like the other ROMs are having the same issue. Will probably revert back to stock on next push, or would you guys like the modded music with the 4x4 widget? Let me know. Will continue to look into a fix for disc view though; I think this player looks good.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jok3sta:
i think the problem was addressed in shizos epic experience rom.. check his thread. maybe theres a fix he can share
[Epic 4G Android Development] id_twin:
Great job, I haven't experienced any issues w/ browser, but I have yet to run hard test.

As for the disc view, the rest of players don't have this feature, so just have to learn to live w/o it. I've used paid mixzing, and the music mod in the past and this one I like better.

I haven't installed SetCPU to overclock past the default 1000Mhz on MixUp yet and I already pull a 1036 quad score.

Only obvious issue I've caught so far is the market is still the older version.

Rom definitely has potential, keep up the good work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
That's corrected in the newest version. Push the vending.apk attached to OP to /system/app/ to update. Sorry 'bout that!

I looked briefly and didn't see anything, but that thread's massive. I'll go through it again and see if I can find anything. Currently trying to find a system dump for the Fascinate... maybe there's another file that needs to be pushed to fix it.

EDIT: I did see a poster claim in Shizo's thread that disc view was fixed in the last release. I just ran diff on his last two versions and didn't see any relevant changes. Still looking for a decent Fascinate system dump.
[Epic 4G Android Development] faheem5:
Please post the barebone (86mb) and let us know when you do..
[Epic 4G Android Development] phishfleck:
thanks for the quick reply! and the great rom!
[Epic 4G Android Development] amosher13:
been having some bad luck with other ROMs, i odined back to stock and flashed this one to start off minimal, restore my data from previous. we'll see how this goes, i find i rarely use all the "extras" that come with any ROM, save for ones i can get myself, thanks for your work, sir. keep you posted on my findings
[Epic 4G Android Development] ranchosteve:
How do you remove touch wiz?

Is the default one in this rom?
[Epic 4G Android Development] amosher13:
its generally not safe to remove touchwiz as it causes sync issues. but if you're feeling saucy you can get sdx stock app remover to pull it out, i'd back it up first (do that in sdx app as well) in case of imminent issues
[Epic 4G Android Development] ranchosteve:
I did that before, and just went to to an all black home screen. As if the The only launcher is touch wiz, (no stock launcher)
[Epic 4G Android Development] faheem5:
whats happening with this?

any planed updates?
[Epic 4G Android Development] faheem5:
is this project dead?
[Epic 4G Android Development] faheem5:
So after i shut the device down and restarted.. browser has been ok.. but was having issues with the EVO Youtube locking up and forcing blackscreens.. :-/

anyway to revert back to the original Youtube version?
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
You can push the attached youtube.apk to /system/app/ if you want to revert. Is there any specific way to replicate these issues or is it simply happening each time you use youtube? Have you cleared youtube's cache/data in settings? Also knowing what kernel you're using would be helpful.

At the time of this posting I am not experiencing any issues whatsoever with Youtube, so people don't be afraid! I could really use more testers. :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] LoveisPeace2012:
How do I odin to a clean di18 install? What is odin?
[Epic 4G Android Development] faheem5:
Sorry didnt mean to scare any testers from trying it.. everything has been GREAT!!

I am using the Mixup kernel.. and i tried 2x using Youtube with same error.. but ill do more testing after work today
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
Review these two threads:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=773032

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=794138

If you're going to do it, you'll want to get the tar.md5 file from the second thread and follow the instructions.

This probably isn't necessary for 99% of the people who would flash to this ROM as the update script wipes the system partition and the user should always wipe data when moving from one ROM to another.

However... In theory, restoring your phone with Odin prior to flashing this should guarantee you a 100% working install. It also insures that our phones are all in the same state which makes troubleshooting force closes and bugs significantly easier.

A newer, slimmer build will be available here shortly. Sorry for the crazy amount of updates; this won't be the case once we're out of beta. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] bubby323:
Its build.prop
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
Yeah, they won't let you attach a file with the .prop extension though. ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
fixed
[Epic 4G Android Development] jok3sta:
is update 5 only a fix for disc view
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
Yes. Rename /system/app/Music.apk to MusicPlayer.apk and reboot. Should work fine at that point.

Remember you got it here first. ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] jok3sta:
nice.. thanks a lot.. im loving the rom so far
[Epic 4G Android Development] id_twin:
Just flashed from Update 2 over to Update 5 (no wipe) -- Pandora is working great!

I thought I didn't want/need the disc view, but after actually having it, I must say it's great. Nice fix OP.

I was starting to get uninstall apps warnings because I was using to much space on the phone -- Good job at freeing up all the extra space.

This rom is perfect for my set-up. As well for anyone who is looking for a good stock rom with-out all the bloatware, and is very fast. Nice work!
[Epic 4G Android Development] ragnarokx:
Best....slogan....ever!
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
Disc view is not completely fixed. The only way that it will work is if you flash an older version first then flash update 5. Otherwise it still force closing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
Will look into that. Thank you.

Edit: I've almost got it truly fixed this time. It was broken for me when I checked it just a few minutes ago, and I've got it running again. Just gotta figure out what I just did that fixed it.

Edit 2: It seems pushing the fascinate player through ADB, right on top of the original, is fixing it. That doesn't seem right. Going to Odin back to stock and try again.
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
Yep, no problem. Just trying to help out.

Would it also be possible to get some credit for the shutdown screen & for porting the music player over? Not asking for much, just want some credit.

Keep it up!
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
Yes, no problem at all man. On next release I plan on cleaning up the first post or making a new thread. I'll definitely include your name up there. Those files are all available in publicly available system dumps for the record, but the honest truth is I wouldn't have even know the Fascinate player was different if I didn't kang the idea from you. :P

I think I have the fix for disc view. *knocks on wood*

Can someone with broken disc view push the attached txt file to /system/lib/libdiscjni.so , reboot and then try it? It's a major PITA to have to do this all by myself. ^^
[Epic 4G Android Development] jblparisi:
I will push the file myself in a minute. Thanks :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] jblparisi:
How can i push the file ? I keep getting a "Read-Only File System" error.

Any suggestions?
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
adb shell
mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system

That, in your command prompt, will remount your system read/write.
[Epic 4G Android Development] kab0b0:
Nice. Is it shallow of me to want to use this ROM simply because I love DOOM?
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
No.

Dangit! I liked Samsung's live wallpapers! Now I can't flash this rom cause I'll lose them :(
[Epic 4G Android Development] kaokollaa:
Finaly a good music app thanx the best rom I ever try
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
1) I Odin'd back to stock DI18.

2) Installed Clockwork Mod

3) Wiped data, cache

4) Installed the ROM linked in OP

5) Flashed Mixup

I immediately went to the player and opened Disc View and it worked the first time and each time after that. If I still don't have it fixed, I'm going to go buy an iPhone. lol

OH! Also make sure the APK is named MusicPlayer.apk ~ It will not work otherwise!!

Push them back in via ADB. I don't include them because I feel even the OEM LWPs slow down the phone.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Eazail70x7:
Could you do a 4 x 2 widget for the fascinate music player?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Eazail70x7:
I've had trouble in the past wit adb pushing. But could you explain to me how to push these wallpapers? I don't even have the files?? Or is it possible to add the apps into the Rom before I flash it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
Sorry. I'm still in the middle of learning Java; get back to me in a few months.

Get Pure Music Widget in the Market. It seems to work with this player just fine. ;)

Assuming you have ADB in your path and debugging on your phone enabled:

adb shell mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
adb push c:\%pathtofile%\yourLWP.apk /system/app/
adb reboot
[Epic 4G Android Development] jblparisi:
Thank you, that will do!
[Epic 4G Android Development] kaokollaa:
Hey the last update its the nuts!! Player in notification is awsome and in the lock screen thanx keep going bro
[Epic 4G Android Development] jok3sta:
downloading as we speak.. keep it up man.. one question.. ive been using the fascinate music player onall my roms and i always wonder if there is a way to modify the lock screen.. I dont like how the pull down tab blocks the time.. anyway i can relocated the time and date?.. i tried switchin to the vanilla lockscreen but then it gets rid of the pull down music tab and I really love that feature
[Epic 4G Android Development] sdotk:
Can we get better download links?
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
Mirrors are coming right now!

I am looking into the lockscreen. I'd either like to get the tab or the time moved. Possibly port the Fascinate lock screen? We'll see... this won't be my last release, just my first stable release. ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] phantomevo77:
Porting the Fascinate lock screen stops the phone from booting, it will get stuck at the "Galaxy S" screen or bootloop :(. It sucks :(
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
If it doesn't boot, it isn't really ported yet.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jok3sta:
yah the fascinate lock screen would be sweet.. roms is running great so far.. i didnt even do a full wipe coming from you last rom..
[Epic 4G Android Development] Eazail70x7:
Thanks, I'll try it and let you know if it works. Btw, would connectbot work with these commands?

Fascinate Music Player Issue

I love this Rom if only for the music player, however I have noticed one issue which I am uncertain of whether it's a bug or by design. if you open the music player then pause it and hit the home key which should exit the program, if you then make a phone call the music player pops up "paused" in the notification area. When I exit the program I want it to exit not keep popping up when it is unwanted.

Update: Also I have noticed that audible tones are gone, even though enabled in the menu there are no screen clicks and I personally like them.

I was able to get the screen touch sound back by pulling the audio file out of a different rom and readding it into system\media\audio\ui folder

Still finding issues... The Fascinate Music Player is buggy as hell, half the time it closes on me while I'm trying to go between the menus etc. also does not work well with Pure Music widget 1.17, although it's Music that is crapping out not the widget.
[Epic 4G Android Development] id_twin:
Few additional things I've noticed:

1) The reboot time is the fastest I've seen on Epic - Fully loaded w/ widgets and media scan is < 45 seconds. Great stuff.

2) Wifi - I've had issues getting wifi to turn on-demand. It always seems to have a mind of it's own when it wanted to work. However, with this rom I have yet to notice the issue. Could be just luck, or could be it just hasn't happened yet.

3) Using MixUp no-voodoo is definitely recommended kernel. I've used it w/ two other roms, and speed wise I've seen it the fastest when used w/ this rom. Guaranteed 1030+ quadrant scores. As well, everything just seems to load quicker and feel snappier.

Keep up the work OP - got a good thing going here.
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
Yes, I removed those intentionally. IMO those clicks are absolutely obnoxious, but to each their own.

I just ate an unnecessarily large lunch at Five Guy's so I'll probably be mostly out of commission for the rest of the day. I'll be back to teh hax around 9-10cst tonight me thinks. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] sdotk:
The removed ****s link is not working can you post another please? Thank you very much kind sir!

ok i found a new problem.. my mms isnt downloading using wifi or 3g.. any help with this
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
I was having the same issue earlier. I'm unsure yet if it's the Sprint network or my ROM causing the problem. I don't believe that I've touched any files that would interfere with or break MMS so I'm kinda leaning to it being a temporary network issue. I connected to 4G and I got my MMS. Chances are you would have tried that already if it was an option.

I'm in Saint Louis. Perhaps it's a midwest thing. :confused:

Either way, like I said, I'll look into it. Really wish Google voice would let you send MMS; would make troubleshooting this much easier.

EDIT: I plan on making a much more complete and thorough change log once here shortly. But in the meantime I'll tell you guys this, the only files I've completely removed from the stock DI18 update were PNGs, OGGs, APKs in /system/app/ and one TTF. Other than that, I pulled a jar from /system/framework/ that was called MobileAP.jar or something like that (we use Wireless Tether) and the non-English TTS files. I also optiPNG'd the remaining APKs. That's pretty much it, so you guys are brought up to speed.

My original plan was to make this as community based as possible. I encourage any one of you to open my ROM with WinRAR and see what's actually inside, and look for ways that this can be improved. Suggest the change here and if it doesn't totally break the ROM or slow it down, it'll probably get merged in.

TLDR: If you think you might know why MMS isn't working, let me know. :P
[Epic 4G Android Development] Eazail70x7:
I need help. I bricked my phone from flashing this Rom. I flashed it in Clockwork and it failed and aborted. Then my phone would not fully boot up. It hung at the Samsung.com splash screen forever.

Please can someone show me how to do this? I also tried to flash back to full stock DI18 and that failed too. (The box turned red and said failed). What am I doing wrong? How do you use Odin to flash back to DI18?

Need a detailed tutorial please. I want to flash this Rom
[Epic 4G Android Development] jok3sta:


Yah i wish i had 4g in my area :(.. ill play with it a little more and see what happens
[Epic 4G Android Development] illogic6:
Stay calm. As far as I know, there's no way flashing this alone has any possibility of truly bricking your phone.

Can you get back into Clockwork? You should be able to as this doesn't write to recovery at all.
