For people that are asking for Wifi Calling this ROM doesn't have it. If you want it and also want CM7 then just flash the ROM that's "built from source" thread or go directly to crackflashers.com choose the Vision and builds. It has everything this one has + more since its constantly updated daily.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lennyuk:
This rom does have wifi calling! You don't go into rom threads and tell them to use another rom.....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vandam500:
It does? People have been asking me about it not working. This ROM is essentially the same as the other one except its been modified by Team Villain. Don't think theres any damage in doing so?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmcsc:
It does but nobody has gotten it to work...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nprussell:
No, there's no harm, but saying the other has everything this has and more isn't strictly true.

Now, please leave it at that, as I don't want/need anymore spam in this thread than there already is! :)

@ everyone else: Latest source compiling now. Will make our changes then prepare for internal testing prior to release.

Anyone else have issues with launcher pro retaining widget info on boot? Also, is there a method in which I can use launcher pro as my default home on boot? It defaults to the included home on boot.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] thatruth132:
go into settinga applications look for your stock launcher and launcher pro then clear defaults
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] leetpriest:
I got to looking and I did set lp to default, but I dropped it to sd earlier like an idiot. Thanks though!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Nighte:
Any screenshots on the ROM?I tried looking through the pages, couldn't find any.

What launcher does it use by default?

Is there any specific radio or anything I should have beforehand?

The SMS timestamp issue is really annoying on the stock rom and the apps don't fix it 100% of the time so I was looking to upgrade. :(

I started from the beginning haha

I usually expect screenys early on, and then troubleshooting and whatnot in later pages.

Thanks a bunch!

One minor thing is when you hold the Power button to shutdown or reboot, both Options say "OK" but the one of the right is actually Cancel (even though it says OK)

Overall, great ROM, very smooth.

Ah... I didn't realize I was the last poster lol

Question, has anyone had an issue with market where after they use Titanium Backup to restore some apps and whatnot, the Market doesn't refresh the app list?

I tried to clear cache from the Application tab and reboot, etc. but nothing seems to work.

Is there any way to get around this or will my apps just never get updates until I manually install each and everyone of them? haha

I really love the rom. Seems to run quite smooth. Only complaint I have is I too have the waking issue when using setCPU to OC. If that gets fixed, it would make everything that much more awesome, and I would greatly appreciate it.

I switched to cputuner from setcpu and it resolved the wake issues. This has been posted before in this thread.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] greensnow:
ok i'm not sure what exactly I'm doing wrong but I really wanna try ginger out and I'm frustrated that I can't get it right. This is the first time I havent been able to flash a rom on the first try and its driving me nuts!

followed this after reading multiple times in this thread that cwm3 didnt have to be flashed first. I noticed that the rom itself flashes extremely fast, I'm not sure if it's because I'm used to flashing sense roms that are more bulky or what. then

I reboot and it sticks on the white htc screen and that's it, no bootup or anything.:(

I've wiped everything, formatted /system and /cache and everything else but no luck

anyone think they can help?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dictionary:
Sure, have you wiped dalvik? It's under advanced. Also, then just for giggles, try flashing the CWM3 recovery, and then try flashing again. Remember, wipe data, wipe cache, then go to advanced, and wipe dalvik cache, before you flash the ROM. Once all are wiped, and you flash the ROM, try to boot up. If it doesn't boot, try to wipe cache and dalvik again.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] greensnow:
yeah sorry i wiped dalvik in my process...i'll try flashing cwm3 and try it and report back

How do i get to the terminal command prompt after im in fastboot?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] joemm:
What exactly are you trying to do in fastboot?

Are you asking how to open the command prompt window? Start menu on your computer, then type "cmd" in the search progam and files window, then press enter. Next navigate to where fastboot is on your comutper, should be in the AndriodSDk tools folder.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cubanito151:
When it says

2. Boot the phone into Fastboot mode by holding Volume Down and pressing power

3. From terminal/command prompt, type:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

How do i go to terminal from fastboot?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Nighte:
Update:

When I first flashed the ROM and whatnot, it would lag when I OC to anything over 1.2GHz, but now I've left it at 1.5GHz (gonna drop it down to 1.4GHz probably, the phone doesn't heat up as much this way) and I can turn the screen on with no lag.

Anyone else getting no lag? I'm still using SetCPU.

Everything else is working as expected and maybe a random FC here and there, but those are in the Villain Settings tab if I recall correctly.

Also, for those having trouble flashing the 3.0 Recovery (because adb is beyond you or you don't want to flash the eng hboot), download the recovery and name it to the most recent file you got in your ClockWorkMod recovery folder and it will trick the app to thinking it's the old file rather than 3.0, theres a thread on this somewhere and credits to whoever started that thread. I got no idea where I found it and I can't find it anymore haha.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ~~Tito~~:
You need a PC to accomplish that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] joemm:
First do you have AndriodSDk installed on your computer? Next do you have the ENG. Hboot on your phone, if not fastboot wont work. Next you have to use your home computer to use those commands, its not something on your phone. Its sounds like your no to sure how fastboot works. If you dont have AndriodSDk and fastboot on your computer and you are trying to flash CWR 3 on your phone to install gingerbread, there is another way to do it from your phones terminal emulator. Do you know what a terminal emulator is? If yes then you can install it this way:

I would suggest reading this thread all the way thru before you do something to your phone that you have no idea what it is. If your not sure read untill you are, before you brick your phone, just a suggestion.

I want to install a custom ROM for the first time but am stuck

i am new to this but have been doing a lot of reading and find all these ROMs have one or another problem

whether its cyanogen, virtuous, teamvillain, enomther...having issues such as camcorder, wifi calling, gps etc etc

I'm just wondering if I should just wait for CM7 which 'could' be the perfect ROM ever.

or is there any current ROM that really is issue free that I'm not aware of
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bronz_Most:
- Read the ROM threads under the development section.

- Pick your favorite(s)

- Make a backup

- Try a couple out

P.S.: There is no such thing as a flawless ROM, both custom and stock ROMs always have room for improvement.

I know I know, but there's a false sense of security there. I've found it hard to find specifics to the questions I have. Aren't setcpu settings specific to the kernal? I fear that I'll find settings/changes for something totally different and end up screwing something up. I don't mean to be rude, but I'd prefer you to ignore my question rather than telling me to look for it on my own; I wouldn't have posted the question if I were able to find it in the forum on my own.

Granted I'm sure some, or probably most of you would have no problems finding it on your own. But you must understand my trepidation when I say that I prefer somebody helping me with my specific problem as opposed to reading advice given to somebody with a mildly similar problem. I just don't want to goof anything up.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] skulk3r:
no one wants to stuff up their phone - but if you are tampering with your phone, there will be risks involved. most of the time, you just have to risk it yourself and just try it - this is how the majority of people here on xda tweak their phones. people will help you if you ask - but ONLY if you search first. You must understand that people have answered this question before - and usually quite a few times.

with setcpu - just go for it. OC it to your heart's content. the kernel - as far as you are concerned - just limits the range to which you can OC. So go as high/low as you want. whether or not it will do funny things to your phone is only something that you will know by playing with it - we have discovered that not all phones of the same model were created equal. if you read the "info" tab in SetCPU, it will tell you all about the scaling.

if you need help troubleshooting - go to the official thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=505419 (hint: you can just Google SetCPU and it is the first link that appears)

good luck.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Palingenesis:
Thank you!! That's what I was looking for. The little push I needed to try this on my own. I wasn't sure if there were very specific rules to using SetCPU and therefore didn't want to risk it.

As for searching google, I didn't bother. I trust XDA over all other places and only bothered searching here.

Random Reboots / Restarts : Possible Fix

Regarding Random Reboots or Restarts (When Waking Screen In Particular, May Apply To All)

Let me start by saying that I have no idea what caused the problem, or why that problem existed; however, I can tell you how I have managed to fix it.

It may be a tad early, but I have been without the random restarts for about 48 hours.

Reinstall GingerVillain. It sucks, I know.

I wiped the data.

I wiped the cache.

I wiped the Dalvik cache. (When looking at the ClockworkMod menu go to Advanced and you should see the option.) (I should also note that I did not do this for my original restart because I thought it was part of the previous wipes; apparently it is not.)

I chose to install from zip, and everything went fine.

Now there are a couple of caveats that stem from me making a few changes at the same time. I gave up on Launcher Pro/Launcher Pro Plus, it was lagging whenever I turned on my phone.

(I thought it was due to my mass of news widgets, but AWDLauncher does not seem to lag even 1/5th as much, if at all.)

I also did not install SetCPU; instead I went for CPUTuner. It is free, and it serves the same basic use as far as I can tell.

(I’m not sure if running profiles in CPUTuner will be as self-defeating as it seems to be in SetCPU. I have given up on profiles for the time being.)

(It is also worth noting that you really don’t need to use either SetCPU or CPUTuner; the ROM is plenty fast without it. I’m not sure if it will naturally overclock to 1.5Ghz or revert to standard; I just know it works fine without either.)

(Note: Not to put down SetCPU, whenever this kink gets worked out I hope to return to it; its what I started with.)

Running at 1.2Ghz with CPUTuner has been working out just fine, and I did not bother to turn down the minimum clock speed for this experiment. (Again, I’m not running Profiles or Triggers)

--Conclusion—

Possible Causes:

1) Initial Install had a random glitch

2) Not Wiping Dalvik Before Installing

3) LauncherPro Plus

4) SetCPU

Fix:

Wipe it all (Data/Cache/Dalvik Cache)

Reinstall

Abandon LauncherPro

Do not use SetCPU

I hope this helps. If I figure out anything else I’ll make another post.

(Also, every now and then when I go to wake the screen seems to timeout automatically. It is rare, and a simple tap of the power button brings it back just as it would for any other screen time out. This may be useful information for those seeking to hunt the glitch. I am pretty convinced that screen-wake is where the problem is; after paying more attention every random restart/reboot came only after trying to wake the screen. Usual example would be: I receive an IM or SMS message -> Phone Chimes/Rings/Buzzes -> I attempt to wake the screen -> Random reboot. Again, hope that helps.)

-Newbie
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JustAnotherNewbie:
Overclocking can be done by installing a couple of different programs.

Initially I had used SetCPU, which is free to people on XDA; however, I have recently switched to CPUTuner, which is free on Market, in an effort to fix a possible glitch with SetCPU. (SetCPU may be totally innocent; that is what I'm betting on, and few seem to be running into the random reboot/restart problem anyway.)

Under-Volting is something that is beyond your control; it is built into the kernel itself. This is something automatically done by the firmware and software, so you don't have to worry about breaking anything on that front.

(At least, that is my understanding; I'm rather confident that I'm right, and if I'm wrong it would be nice for someone to correct me.)

--Short Answer--

Download SetCPU or CPUTuner and Enjoy.

htc's phone.apk requires a lot of htc frameworks (as do all htc apps) that is why you can only use the htc apps and widgets on a sense rom.

If you want a dialler close to htc's then get "Dialler One" free in the market.

I'm really loving this rom. It has become my current daily driver, coming from cm6. No reboot issues for me. Installed swype and I'm good to go. Appreciate the work.:D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Nighte:
I'm using LP+ along with SetCPU overclocked to 1.5GHz with various profiles. No screen lag issues, no random reboots.

However, these symptoms existed before I decided to wipe EVERYTHING and reflashed the rom. But as of now, everything is working as expected.

Not trying to flame your post, simply stating that it might not be the apps you listed.

I think the fix here is to completely wipe the system before flashing.

can you state exactly what profiles you're using with setCPU, because I purchased that app and had nothing but problems... haven't had an issue since moving to cpuTuner though...

Just a quick update guys:

First of all, I apologise for saying an update would be released at the weekend. I was unable to stick to that due to a paid job being sent my way. As I'm sure you can understand, paid work has to come first ;)

Regarding the ROM, I have compiled a version at the weekend, and made a few changes, but I'm not entirely happy with it. Give me another couple of days to re-compile and make a few changes, and I will get version 1.5 up for you.

Hope you're all getting on with 1.4 for now! I know that I am still happily using it as a daily driver!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] harolds:
You're running a different rom, at least according to your signature. When running Virtuous 0.9.0 my display also used most of my battery, and using this rom it does not. I just think it's how gingerbread does its calculation, because on other froyo roms display used most of the battery.
