[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I surely can. I'm not to good with font selection so thank you! I also want to get the words centered better over the bar. Back to the lab and thanks for the compliment. :)

Typed on my Incredible phone!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] velopirate:
Nils, I love your work. This is by far my favorite ROM. Can you tell me where the bootup DROIIID sound file is located? I would like to remove this. The novelty wears off quickly.

Thanks again!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Yeah it does but it annoys my wife so much I leave it in :D

[Droid Incredible Android Development] DroidBee:
Can anyone please confirm that my mirror has the right file on it? Verify the md5 possibly?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I don't have the md5 to compare it too, but I'm downloading now and will post the md5 of my download.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
It should be:

Trimmed version 3 = 05871c84a4cc5c8dc3d59a76988b24bf

Full version 3 = c4e8b0b78aec1dd2bd8b2801013d09d9
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I posted the MD5 above this post.

Is there a problem?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DroidBee:
It matches. I actually have the FULL hosted, NilsP. Do you want me to host the other one too?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:

Nils, backing up my current rom and installing this one to see the changes. If this NEW boot animation works right, I think you're really going to like it. I used the Calibri font that jumbotron recommended, got rid of the animation, faded the elements in, and just made it clean and classy looking!

**Credit goes to "theotherrogue" for the strobing progress bar and htc logo. I'll post it after testing how it fits with your other changes.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Both would be good. I actually thought you hosted the trimmed one and had the link in the first post wrong so I just fixed it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Looking forward to it.. Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbh00jh:
Annoys my co-workers also , but that's too bad. LoL
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
After seeing it on the phone, with your rom, I felt the font was too small so I re-did it and boy am I glad I did! I found shortcuts in Gimp, the 2nd time around, that would've saved me tons of time.. Anyways, I sure hope you like this one. I think it's HOT!

I've attached it along with a preview.

**Credit goes to "theotherrogue" for the strobing progress bar and htc logo and to jumbotron for the font selection!

EDIT: I can try adding the annoying sound into one too, so you can nag the wife. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Nice and clean. I still like the building so I may incorporate that in the anim.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] velopirate:
I really DO understand that. :D Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Sounds good to me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jumbotron:
Find it in: system / customize / resources...VZW_Droid.mp3. I just moved it to my notifications folder.

Bootanimation Ideas

Some other ideas for bootanimations to play around with for corporate look besides the building (which I luv)...my faves are the "suit up" poster style and the silhouette of five corporate men. Which it were possible to saturate the pics in grayscale then retouch a tie or two pieces to promote the color/scheme of Business Sense in Calibri of course! Really wishing I had photoshop to give you a crisper idea...let me know if it's too far off base.

BTW, NilsP and Jermaine151, I wanted to compliment you two on your collaborativeness and openminds!

hey Nils great work and progress on your rom. I have issues switching from this to skyraider. I fight which one I like using. I like the customizations you have done and the ones that skyraider has done. Some suggestions to keep me to yours- maybe a 5 column app drawer. Also a transparent rotary lockscreen. Keep up the great work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
@james_pnut

I have already started to look into the 5 column app draw. I kind of like that myself.

There is a rotary lockscreen that should work so I will look at it when I get a chance.

@jermain and jermaine151

The 2 of you figured out I have not spent a lot of time on the boot animation (focused on the ROM) so I really do appreciate your ideas. So, I think we will come up with something that pleases everyone.

@All - Thanks for all the recommendations
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
This is NilsP's baby and I just wanted to do something to contribute. Thanks for the kind words.

You're welcome!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
If anyone is interested in a splash screen for my ROM check out the one BigNate did

Nils
[Droid Incredible Android Development] james_pnut:
Big Thanks to Big Nate for the completing my request. Im liking the splash he created and the boot animations you Nils and Jermaine created. Keep up the great work. I like the my phone being complete with the splash and all the that matching. Cant wait for the next update by you Nils. This is starting to b my everyday rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rsarno:
Hello sir

Still enjoying this ROM!

I had a question, does the newest release include the fix for voicemail alerts?

Also i see under your "TO DO" list you listed Animations ... but my version seems pretty animated lol. What is planned, or is that outdated?

Thank you
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Yes it does

I did add some animations in version 3 but full animation (fly in, fly out, etc) will be in 3.1. It is working nice on mine right now.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rsarno:
Any rough time estimate on next version? Ill upgrade right now just for the VM fix, or i can wait a week or whatever for the newest one.

I like to wipe and do fresh installs, so id rather not upgrade 2 times back to back if possible lol
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Probably within a day or so. I just want to run it a little longer before posting.

The fix for the vm missing is a few posts up (#230) if you want to apply that in the interim.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rsarno:
Thanks!

[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Version 3.1 added to first post.

See change log in post 2.

I added some things I actually wanted in V3 but posted V3 since it fixed a couple of things. I have added Customized dialer, Customized keyboard, colorized most Menu icons, Animations all over the place and Removed HotBoot since it was causing instability in 3G when used.

See the note about the keyboards in post 2 since it is not activated by default.

Enjoy
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbh00jh:
The icons and animations look great , and everything works fine so far. Great job.

The download link , download stopped twice. Great rom ,thanks. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Thanks, glad it's working for you.

I need to find a better place to host my files that I can control like 4shared with better performance.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] apsawyer65:
NilsP ... just installed your ROM and I must say it is clean and fast. I have been using the Desire Z ROM that ID ported however, I use this phone for work and travel and needed something more stable.

I do have a question for you though. Some other ROMS (like Desire Z) have the ability to sync multiple Exchange accounts. As such, the Mail Widget than has the ability to show ALL of these accounts in one window. Any hope of getting that ability added to this ROM?

Again ... thanks for the ROM and great work!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I will chek into it. I can see how it would be handy.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] apsawyer65:
I noticed on the 2nd Post in this thread, the picture shows various Rosie bars. Is there an option somewhere in this ROM to change the buttons or are there different Rosie bars to choose from?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I took them down temporarily since I have to redo them after redoing Rosie in the main ROM. Hopefully just a couple of days.

Is there a specific one you are looking for?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] apsawyer65:
The bar with the link to contacts. Not a big deal, I can wait until you re-post them.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jumbotron:
U R so money its unreal.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbh00jh:
After several hours of use , everything I use has worked fine.

Everything is fast and smooth and I love the animation. Great rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Here ya go. Just flash it via recovery.

We aim to please
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stoney 666:
Blue circle battery mod is also gone? I still have the file with both battery mod and animai but don't wanna kill the animai from 3.1
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Thank you. Enjoy
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I took it down for the same reason. It would kill the animation and a few other things.

Back up in post #2 for V3.1
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stoney 666:
Thanx Nils....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Alternate Rosie launchers back up in post #2 for version 3.1
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tbmorris:
Nils: Just wondering if you have the HTC email app installed or if you are using the original Android app (named Email as opposed to Mail). For those wanting to use push hotmail, the original android app allows that, where the HTC app does not. Something is wrong with the security in the HTC app. I will be happy to send a copy of the original to you if you would like.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] apsawyer65:
Thank you.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jumbotron:
Keeps gettin better and better.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
It is the HTC E-Mail that comes with the ROM. I experimented with the Android and a few other e-mail apps but had some problems. My goal is to keep the ROM as stable as possible but provide as much functionality without problems.

That was awhile ago so if you want to send me the latest I can try it again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
And I am happy to take requests for the future.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DroidBee:
any new screenshots?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Nope, have not had time to redo the post 1 image however, it kind of looks the same except the color icons in menus, alternate keyboard and dialer/phone
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DroidBee:
I was wondering if you could make a zip for the ROM WITHOUT the theme customizations, Nils?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
What specifically are you asking for? Which customizations don't you want? Are you just asking for the stock ROM with no apps added or removed?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DroidBee:
I am looking for all the software customizations you make minus the aesthetic customizations!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I have to look at it because all the theming is built into the framework and customized apps and would have to be removed which means you will lose some things.

For example. do you want:

The full version or the trimmed version?

The custom battery?

The notification bar animations?

The screen animations?

Etc.

I can easily give you the stock ROM with the addon and some replacement apps plus some customizations but you will lose everything else.

Let me see what I can do after you answer the above.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DroidBee:
The trimmed version with custom battery and animations but NO themes. I mean no themed keyboard or themed clock or themed menu selections etc.

No 'look' customization. I think people will be all over it. It could be the unBusiness ROM :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
The problem is that you just end up with a clone of the popular ROM's like UnCommon Sense, Virtuous, or Skyraider.

I am not discounting doing it but I will need time if I decide to redo the entire ROM
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DroidBee:
Well I was looking around for trimmed ROMs that aren't completely transformed. I am using Virtous right now but I was wondering if you could do something with this one!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Give me some time and I will see what I can do. Basically what I will do is put all the original apps (without themes) and graphics in the current ROM with the exception of the animation graphics. I have to find a happy medium since theming is not just images it is also xml edits.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] morrowa2:
Nils, I gotta say, you've put out a top rate ROM! I was on MIUI ROM prior to this which is pretty hard to beat these days. I liked MIUI originally for its simplicity, but its latest versions are buggy, the camera stinks, and I missed some of HTC's widgets, not operable on MIUI. When I found your ROM, I thought, "Finally! a professional looking ROM w/o all the fluff." Streamlined and fast! I'm liking the animations, and colorful menu icons.

One suggestion for the boot animation: Is it possible just to use the original animation but make it all blue? Don't really care for the sky scraper slide. Just my opinion.

Finally, one question: any recommendations for alternate kernels that will work well with this ROM - particularly for battery life?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Thanks

I am working on a new boot animation even as we speak.

As far as kernels go the one that came with this ROM is pretty good. It fixes the spped of charging problem and the drain seems to be much better.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
OK. Be careful of what you ask for. There is now a version in the first post that has all the same functionality as the trimmed v3.1 ROM with no theme.

Actually, the Rosie launcher and lock slider are themed because 1) I did not have time to undo it and 2) The alternate Rosie launchers in post #2 can be used.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] halfsight:
This Rom seems to be working really well. It's just smooth. Keep up the good work!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Glad you like it.

Any thoughts for the future let me know.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] tbmorris:
Email App

Found the attachment link. Here is the email app that I am using instead of the HTC one.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbh00jh:
Seems like some some of the folks

are trying to make this room look like the other roms in the forum.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Thanks. I will see what I can do with it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I hear ya. I promise my primary ROM will be what it is.

The key is how it functions and what it includes and people can theme or mod it any way they like.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DroidBee:
Assuming that was aimed at me - I am not a fan of the bluish theme. Maybe you are but I want to support what Nils his doing. And I like his work - thus I requested and he was awesome enough to do it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] DroidBee:
Hey NIls! Loving the no theme! :) THANKS A TON!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Your welcome. Enjoy and show me what you do with it
[Droid Incredible Android Development] apsawyer65:
The ROM itself is fantastic and stable. The only annoyance is the lack of multiple Exchange Account capability.

I was using Virtuous ROM (based on the updated base 2.2 v3.26.605.1 just like this one) and I was able to setup multiple Exchange accounts. However, the Mail Widget only allows you to see one at a time.

The mail in the new Desire Z ROM has the same functionality as Virtuous but, the Widget allows you to select ALL Exchange Accounts and view them on the one screen. Understandably, this may be an updated framework.

I would really like it (if possible) to have the Desire Z's Mail Client and Widget on this ROM.

You think it is possible Nils?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ncwildcat:
Just an FYI, Tried the modified rosie with MMS and my app drawer button does not work....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] moskins:
+1 I could really use that as well. Although the calendar wasn't able to sync with the Desire Z mail client, on Exchange 2010

Overall love this ROM. Is it possible to update the thread title to show current version and date?

Keep up the great work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Sorry, I will remove it until I fix it. All others seem fine.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
You can try the email.apk in post 363 and let me know how it works.

Just remove /system/app/mail.apk and adb push the the new one to /system/app/.

I will be experimenting with it but I am not sure if everything works with it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] apsawyer65:
OK, here is where my noobism steps up to the plate. Can I use Android Commander to simply delete the file and then upload the new one to the same location? Already did a nandroid b/u so, I'm good for the repair in case it don't work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Since it is a system apk it is best to do it through recovery. Just mount system and

adb push /system/app/email.apk

adb rm /system/app/Mail.apk
[Droid Incredible Android Development] apsawyer65:
I tried the apk you posted but, I get FC's.

I also tried the mail apk and HTC Widget from the Desire Z ROM but, I get constant FC's. Attached are the files from the Desire Z ROM in case you want to play with them. The widget appears to work but, it tries to call the mail.apk and then FC's.

Thanks anyway

Are buttons still missing from the browser and Gmail app? (Show pictures in gmail should be a button)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jbh00jh:
My comment was not directed at you , I have my own theme also.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Yes, they are still missing. I can fix it but I have to lose many other functions within the framework. I know when it breaks but still have not figured out how to fix it.

I have not forgotten this and when I fix it it will be posted in big bold letters.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
I will check them out. Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] thankins:
Why even put a file manager on? The people using the ROMs know what they are doing and probably would go to the Market and download one they want anyways.

Just my 2 cents
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
No argument there. Just added as a convenience (to me) to not have to go to the Market to get the thing I need first.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Installable ZIP file for transparent notification pull down and transition animations in post 2
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TGELHAUS:
Love the rom great job. Just so you know the links for the transparency mod and launcher bar are not valid. Thanks for the great work and keep it up.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Fixed. For some reason both had a line feed in them. I probably fat fingered them.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TGELHAUS:
Lol, np. Thanks again for a great rom!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
My pleasure..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SynisterWolf:
This Rom is great! So far no 3g or gps problem like skyraider has. It's my new daily driver. Great work sir.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Great, thanks for the feedback.

I agree, I have not had any of the 3G problems since I built this. I think it may be the new kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] :
Great, great rom. Using it as my default. My only complaint is the absense of Facebook for HTC Sense integration as simply using the Facebook for Android app isn't a possibility on any sense rom. Once you add that in this rom will be 100% perfect!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Since the one from the market won't do the job I will put it back in on the next release.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SynisterWolf:
Even using the new kernel on sky I would still have problems. I switch to this and I don't think ill go back
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
That rules out that theory. Thanks for sticking with me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SynisterWolf:
No problem. I will post if I have any problems. But so far I have no complaints. Great job sir. With some of the other roms I have tried, they feel like they are over engineered. With yours its simple yet useful. That's what I'm looking for.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Version 1.4 available in post 1

See post 2 for changes.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stoney 666:
Still says 1.3... sounds dope thow! Flashing now...

You may have caught me between posting and changing the link so download it again if your Settings > Software does not say 1-4
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jprow507:
This looks like an excellent ROM. I have been using Uncommon Sense and really enjoy it and this looks very similar but based on the new kernel (which I'm hoping means better battery life).

In the description it is mentioned that this contains "Customized Lock screen w/ music controls" but in the picture it looks like the standard Sense lock screen only slightly modified. Is the lockscreen in this one actually more like the on one in Uncommon Sense with the horizontal sliding volume and unlock sliders and music controls?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
It's not just the new kernel it is based on entire new leak so a lot of things have improved.

The LockScreen is the Sense lockscreen but it does have the music controls when the player is active.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
That is why I have not been able to make this happen. Mail is very dependent on the framework which is what is causing the FC's. I will keep trying.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scope666:
At least we know which files cause the problem. The attached is the ONLY version of framework-res.apk and services.jar that I've ever been able to apply to the 10/13 leak and not lose the buttons. (previously I PM'd you the wrong theme, sorry about that) I believe this is from the Stripped Froyo ROM that's available on XDA.

Do NOT install this on Business Sense. Only sent this so Nils could have a look at the files.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] apsawyer65:
Thats what I suspected. Thanks for all the hard work Nils.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Thanks. I have to look and see what is working in these and what I have to mod to make it work on my ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] crimsontide5:
I recently rooted just installed your Rom and I love it! This is the 1st Rom I'm trying and so far I think I'll be sticking to it, my Inc is so much faster and smoother. Great work!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Thanks

That's my goal to keep it clean, smooth, and highly functional.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] NilsP:
Have you tried these on my ROM? I just pushed them and got FC's all over the place.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scope666:
No, only on the original 10/13 rooted leak. There must be something else unique in your rom that these versions are conflicting with. These work perfect with this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=808173

Which I believe your rom is based off of correct?
