Nope, you have it down pretty well. You only need to copy the stuff on the Fat32 part of your existing sd card, MikFroyo will take care of moving stuff over to your ext3 for you as you restore or add new apps. You should do a "fresh" install of MikFroyo (I suggest waiting until after the Game tonight and doing it with 4.5) so It picks up the new a2sd settings upon first bootup. In theory, a nandroid restore of a know good working version of the ROM with apps2sd already active as you were running should suffice, but again, it is always better to err on the side of saftey, everytime I try and cut corners I spend more time redoing everything over again the step by step way anyway:D

Mitchellvii has a very good write-up linked in the OP Post#1, follow it, and good luck!

quick question

I was wondering what on sd card needs to actually be there? I know I need nandroid files and titanium folder but it seems all these other apps are putting files on there and I dont use ap2d. Was thinking about reformating since I got the card used with the phone.

Maybe with a little more time under your belt, you will come to feel the way many of us do, why risk having another layer of software operating between me and something I am flashing that is as critical as my recovery, boot partitions, radios, nv or a new ROM??

It's really not that hard to nandroid, wipe cache's and flash a zip, or boot into recovery and flash_image a new recovery partition. With experience you get fast at it, and when and if something happens you didn't expect, you have one less "layer of confusion" between you and the phone's native operating system. Perhaps it really is an option better left to those with more experience come to think of it.

And so it begins, the domino effect you referenced earlier is taking place! With Android, it started on the Evo, made its way to the Incredible, and I can guarantee, just as you have already, that Android will NEVER be the same! I'm sure your techniques will be used by Developers on every ROM throughout all of Android before long! Again, way to keep things fresh and make my toy feel brand new again!
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
it will get all over the place... i think no one ever thought how much removing localization files can affect a ROM.

But it really makes a huge diff... not just a tiny one.

i think i might even take your offer and do a CM rom like that.

its for sure gonna be quicker to pull off cuz there are less apks.

and i already made my mistakes with sense... so i know how to fix'em and i think CM should be even easier to overcome.

but... later on... if no one will beat me to it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tonwarr.the.incredible:
I can only imagine how fast an AOSP Rom would be with all the trimming and decompressing you've implemented here!

For now, and for the first time since my days with the Droid Eris, I am truly happy with Sense and feel, speed wise, I am on a level playing field with the much smaller AOSP roms!

The one thing I think CM roms have that Sense doesn't is all the hidden features and attention to detail, not to mention, AOSP is the heart beating inside every ROM developed on the Android platform...
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
ok guys... i've been thinking a little... and i think i really wanna make this rom more appealing to everyone.

so... what im gonna do is to simply port old themes over first before i start working on new ones.

my older rom themes are a little tricky to port though cuz i did a lot of xml edits in them and took apart a lot of apps from the htc resources... so that might take longer to do cuz its not only switching images around.

anyways...

ill start popping themes at u guys that will be 100% based on the work done here on the rom.

this in turn will give u a faster rom cuz of some reasons i explained a couple of pages back. (image types etc.)

but first... diff transition animations... and that will come up shortly.

second... v4.2 Roms are up... so have fun.

[EVO 4G Android Development] powerbala:
THE best rom so far period
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
i agree on the that the option would be good... but i always said... im not a programmer... im not good with creating programs... just good in tweaking them how i want.... which is what i do best.

if u saw it somewhere else though... show me... i might be able to make it work for us.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
For not being a programmer, you made this the fastest Sense Rom I've ever used so well done.

Ok, these animations are easy to tweak. I personally think you should consider using Flyin/Flip (from Fab's Apex Rom) as your stock transition (just because it is so damned cool).

Here's the file you need: http://www.multiupload.com/8HNSJ3PEEM - This has the "anim" folder in it that you will be using the replace the existing "anim" folder in /system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/.

To pull the current framework-res.apk to your SDK/Tools folder you just go:

adb remount

adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk framework-res.apk

This will put your current framework-res.apk in your Tools folder.

Go there and do an "Open Archive" with 7zip. Then double click the "res" folder and you will see the "anim" folder. Delete that and drag the replacement "anim" folder over from your Flyin/Flip download (open that using 7zip as well). Once it has copied over just close everything up (don't worry about it re-zipping - not necessary in this case).

Then go:

adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk

adb reboot

When your phone reboots your new animations should be working. I also recommend setting transitions to "high" using spareparts so the new transitions don't lag.

Here is good source article on all this:

http://androidforums.com/droid-x-all-things-root/226604-how-mod-custom-transition-animations.html

I didn't create these just spreading the word.

** If you could somehow write a script to automate this and give users several transition options that would be awesome.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tonwarr.the.incredible:
If you've followed his work at all you'd know that he's already implemented these, as well as a host of other ones on older versions of his rom. Not being a programmer probably means writing a script currently is out of the question, but then again, that's just my $.02...lol

Thanks for the tutorial though, I'm sure it will create a plethora of new comments and irrelevant questions from the Noob community...:-)
