I've tried quite a few roms myself. I liked gummy but could never get the camcorder operating correctly, same with liberty.

I have been using apex for a week now and am very happy with it.
[Droid X General] :
My favorite is Gummy Jar. Simple, fast, stable. I tried installing Liberty and my phone BRICK. I don't know what I did wrong. Luckily I had Verizon replacement phone on hand so no down time.
[Droid X General] thejamhole:
I just started messing around with roms, i went from a regular droid x to a pretty awesome liberty 1.5 droid x. A lot of blur stuff bugged me and seemed to slow the phone down a lot, so this seemed like a good place to start. It took a couple of tries to root the phone, then a couple tries to get the rom to install. I figured that's normal for your first time.

I've been using it for almost a week now and i really really like it. I am noticing a random reboot here and there. But i think that might have been the theme i had on. Using the liberty remix theme now. But seriously, the phone feels so much faster now that I'm running this new rom. Plus it's great not having all those stupid apps you couldn't install. That bugged me a lot. I don't really have anything else to compare it to other than the default droid x verizon rom. But I'd say it's my favorite so far.
[Droid X General] Ben's:
I gotta put a +1 for Fission 2.5.7 (black edition). Trying the couple popular ROMs, I have yet to have a single bug or issue with Fission. It runs like I was hoping a custom ROM should run and with all the soft mods I have done to my phone, it flawless, not a single hiccup.

I want my phone to run like a $600 phone should so with this ROM, I feel like it unlocked all of it's potential. It would drive me nuts when I would get a random foreclose on the other ROMs * cough cough Liberty, cough cough * or other bugs.

A custom ROM should be better in essence then the stock, not worse by means of bugs and quirks. " zomg...it's so fast...when I can actually use half the time! " Yea - no :p
[Droid X General] cvhovey:
I've tried Fission, ApeX, Liberty and Tranquility. All have differing and nice features. However, after trying various ROMs and finding each seem to leave some imbedded residue behind (replacing boot image, animation, etc.), I decided to sbf and go back to a clean slate. After re-rooting, removing bloat and setting up overclock (actually I'm always underclocking 300-900 at lowest voltage recommened by QuickOverclock) ... I was very surprised to see I'm getting nearly

twice

the battery life I was getting before. So for the time being, I'm staying with stock, rooted, odexed and underclocked where I'm getting the fastest responsiveness I've ever had and the best battery life.
[Droid X General] thejamhole:
Are you saying that underclocking didn't make the phone run slower? I was gonna underclock my dx to get more battery life but didn't want to sacrifice speed.

[Nook Color Android Development] BertoJG:
There seems to be a constant flow of questions about booting into recovery, so I thought I would take a video of what works for me.

In stock form this will get you to the recovery that allows you to wipe your user data. If you have an alternative recovery installed, ClockWorkMod as an example, this will get you booted into it.

UPDATED - we don't need to hold the VOL+ button.

1. Power Off the Device

2. Hold N and Power

3. After the screen has been on for about 5 seconds, release the buttons.

I hope this helps!

Nice job, BertoJG!

Come on, show us how to completely hose your OS, and boot into recovery, please! ;) Thanks for your work on CWM!
[Nook Color Android Development] BertoJG:
Thanks! People seem to find enough creative ways of hosing their OS, no need for me to demonstrate.. :eek: That is why I worked on CWM as I though it was important and could "save" people from themselves, me included.. :D
[Nook Color Android Development] xboxexpert:
I'm going to try and redo my script because there is no reason why it shouldn't work but I had a hard time getting it to work I'm going to test this method.

Please note the OP has been updated to reflect the fact we don't need to hold the VOL+ key as part of this process.

Help Please: how to undo ClockWorkMod Recovery to use original stock Recovery?

Please pardon the cross post but anxious to find a reply.

I have installed the ClockWorkMod (& obviously its recovery menu).

The big question...

How to restore back to the original B&N Factory "recovery" program (i.e., undo installation of CW recovery system)?

I do not have a backup pre-CW; is there an image or RUU file somewhere, or is there a hidden backup copy of the original recovery to restore?
[Nook Color Android Development] nookroot:
just curious this is for if you cant boot your nook currect due to a bad flash ?

others wis you could acces the recovery in the rom manager menu ?
[Nook Color Android Development] GoochyPuppy:
I can boot into the CW recovery menu and select full recovery, but the result is not a virgin Nook... it is still rooted, has such app installed, etc. And most importantly, still has CW recovery mode installed and active as the recovery menu (ie whenever you do a hard reset boot) .

This is not ideal for a warranty inquiry situation when needed.

Thanks!
[Nook Color Android Development] cabbieBot:
CWM doesn't let you do a full stock restore. The restore it gives you also needs to supplemented with about 10 steps or so in the terminal to get the stock recovery back.

Anyone whose rooting should be comfortable at the terminal, but we've known that CWM doesnt give a full backup for many days now and I guess its not a priority to get it fully operable, unless I'm mistaken...this is my first time back on the board in a while.
[Nook Color Android Development] GoochyPuppy:
Thx...

I am comfortable with terminal of adb, but not sure I have URL to get virgin boot image...

This it?

... dang! No paste in this App... have to go to my PC to add URL..

It is post in a "brick" thread.

Here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10599116&postcount=14

I just don't know the unambiguous terminology ... I hope "virgin recovery" makes sense, though nobody else has called it that.
[Nook Color Android Development] GoochyPuppy:
Back from Clockwork Recovery to Virgin (Factory) Recovery ... works like a charm!

OK... as I hoped, the procedure listed in the thread "[Q] HELP! Maybe brick?" completely worked for me. Threads on this are scattered about, especially because some folks are playing with the boot files due to Froyo attempts, etc..

I can at least point anyone reading this to my summary success post:

[Nook Color Android Development] samuelhalff:
Maybe some of you should keep an eye open on the forum for new threads. A flashable zip to restore to stock has been available since yesterday.
[Nook Color Android Development] dehidding:
I must be missing some special thing - I can't boot into recovery. ROM Manager is/was able to get there, but booting with the "N" and the power key never puts me into recovery. Ideas?
[Nook Color Android Development] samuelhalff:
You need to hold them both until you see CWR. Don't let go.. Make sure Rom manager has successfully flashed CWR (at the top of the screen in Rom manager).
[Nook Color Android Development] rookie1:
I think it's a bit hard to determine how long you need to hold Power + n. In my experience very frequently my NC just shuts down when I hold too long. I have modified u-boot to use a different key combo (hold both Vol+ and Vol-) to boot into recovery. It's much easier now. If there is any interest, I can post my u-boot.bin.

Now I think of it, I should be able to modify u-boot to boot into either CWR or stock recovery base on different key combos. Would there be any interest?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] houzuoguo:
I always follow this guide to create update zip file:

http://www.londatiga.net/it/how-to-create-android-update-zip-package/

But remember, when you create "update-script" file, make sure you:

1. put an extra line in its end

2. all line breaks must be in Unix format

To sign the zip package, either you may use the way in the tutorial, or you can use ZipSigner on your Android to sign a zip.

I don't know how to with Tasker, but it can be done with Widgetsoid, which is free.

You select to make a widget on your homescreen, choose switcher, and then select "Enable/Disable Mobile Data" on the network tab.

http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/03/htc-evo-shift-4g-in-the-wild/

I'm happy to say that I have no problem with sticking with my evo. The shift seems like the att airea to me - very degraded and outdated tech.
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
I wouldn't get it but I also wouldn't call the CPU/GPU outdated. It's practically a given that it's just a rebranded Desire Z which is part of HTC's latest line of phones -- at least for now.
[EVO 4G General] Hrshycro:
Hmm, well the latest specs that I read (about a week ago) said that it would have an 800mhz processor - endgadget says 5mp camera, no front-facing, ect. Not sure the front facing camera has every been used on my phone, but it's still cool to have, I guess; I was referring more to the outdate/price of it in my mind - Radio Shack said $150, so to me, it's outdated/slower/smaller than the EVO and costs more.
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
How is it slower? I agree that it's not a overall very appealing phone but how is it faster? It has a better CPU but more importantly it has a much better GPU.
[EVO 4G General] toprock23:
This is the 2nd gen snapdragon and it overclocks like a motha! I been hearing 1.7 Ghz OC stable on G2's. I'm just turned off by the small screen and the keyboard. It's a shame really. I just hope the next evo has the looks of the Desire HD, but with better cpu/gpu.
[EVO 4G General] Dan330:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/01/02/sprints-htc-evo-shift-4g-specs-leak-online/

looking much better???
[EVO 4G General] slickdaddy96:
I am all over this if those specs are correct. I have been looking for a slide out keyboard smartphone running android. I know there is the Epic, but Samsung phones have a history of no support/sucking.

Currently got an Touch Pro 2, and just waiting for the perfect phone. The front facing camera is the make or break for me. I would like to have that, and if this phone ends up not having it then I won't get it. All the pictures seem to show a camera on the front by the top speaker bar, so I am hoping all the rumors that there is no FFC are wrong.
[EVO 4G General] tstack77:
http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/03/htc-evo-shift-4g-in-the-wild/

Previous specs from androidpolice.com NOT correct (here is the box showing the 5MP camera, no ffc). It's the desire-z without the hinge. Still a better cpu/gpu than the evo, but...
[EVO 4G General] adamr240:
What's funny is the Evo is actually about to be outdated tech. Hell, the CPU/GPU is the next generation of Snapdragon, so it is actually moving forward.

My girlfriend has an Evo, and i love it, but i like how this phone has the same resolution in a smaller screen.

I'm definitely getting one on launch day.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
The internals are better in the Evo shift than the Evo.

Clock speed is irrelevant, much like clock speed on processors.

Don't even try to suggest that the i5s at 2.5 ghz are slower than the Pentium 4 3.0ghz.

My comment to the Evo shift is the fact that, while it is better than the Evo, it is 2010 technology.

By summer we are going to have 2011 technology.

Why would I not just wait 3 - 5 months and pay the same amount for much better?
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
I find it odd not one person has mentioned the landscape sense. That's usually a hit
[EVO 4G General] Alfred F. Jones:
I'm still unsure about this device. I love my EVO, and I love the G2, but the screen size on the Shift is just too small for me. Not to mention, the buttons at the bottom look laughably too big on the poor thing.

I guess it would be pretty nice to have the new CPU/GPU butttt I'm not sure. I'm pretty picky about keyboards so maybe I will know once I've played with one in person. :)
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
I would be surprised if there wasn't an Evo 2 to with dual-core processor released in the summer.
[EVO 4G General] Hrshycro:
Good point; it doesn't have the new Sense either, which sucks!

Sent from my Carbon Fibered EVO 4G
[EVO 4G General] fenixjn:
Well the phone is smaller but that D-pad does not make any sense... why include such thing on a device with a touchscreen. Even better would be to remove the D-pad to make space for some additional keys OR expand the current keys.

It looks 'toy-like' similar to the Epic.

I think I will wait for another device. Staying with the EVO until something else pops up.
[EVO 4G General] firemedic1343:
You hit the nail on the head. Right on all counts.

Second Gen Snapdragon kills it, but I'm waiting for the dual cores!!!
[EVO 4G General] Dan330:
that is a great arguement/point..

but it has a great flaw as well!

wait 3-5 months... and reuse

wash, rinse, and repeat...
[EVO 4G General] bronxknight28:
that is exactly what i was gonna say, if it had the new sense then i would've thought about it. Plus it wont work with a powermat, i love my evo for that :D
[EVO 4G General] kenvan19:
My wife is completely gaga over this phone and being someone who got suckered by Samsung and my local sprint reps (When I was torn between the epic and the evo at epic launch, they all said 'hands down its the epic it'll have 2.2 in a few weeks'...heh) into buying a phone with a keyboard I wish I had gone the other way. Personally, I hate the blue tint of the phone, I despise the trackpad (who uses a trackpad anymore?), I could care less about the lack of FFC or the 5mp vs 8mp but in all honesty there needed to be a smaller alternative for people wanting high-end hardware on sprint without having to have a massive screen. Part of the reason my better half loves this phone is that she rarely carries a purse and if she got an Epic or an Evo she could not carry her phone in her pocket as she is used to and would then have to carry a bag for it.
[EVO 4G General] cosine83:
Sprint just posted the fact sheet but no availability date.

http://newsroom.sprint.com/news/htc-evo-shift-4g-fact-sheet.htm

the fact sheet says it has the newest version of HTC Sense. There's no reason they wouldn't include it.
[EVO 4G General] Dan330:
ok.. i am over it... I will keep my EVO. :)

what does it mean by... 3.6" screen with tactile feedback?

that just heptic feedback .. right?

since it is $150... and has a few things more than EVO...

will they lower the price of the EVO?? Sprint's retail price?
[EVO 4G General] Blitzpwnage:
Their cash cow? Hell no! Also I say wait until summer something big is coming sprint is lacking phones and for a reason look at verizon they have 2 galaxy S models lots of phones lots I feel that sprint is going to deal a flush...and it is going to be awesome anyone else think so?
[EVO 4G General] Dan330:
sprint.. has always been .. low on phone choices.... Verizon and TMobile has always had a lot of choices.
[EVO 4G General] slickdaddy96:
There looks to be a FFC on those pictures...

If that round area to the left of the speaker bar at the top is not a FFC than I don't know what it could be. It looks exactly like the FFC on the EVO just on the left side not the right.

That link you posted is still speculation on the specs, not set in stone. So there are only two possibilities here.

1) The photos are wrong and this was just some prototype and not what is going ot be produced.

2) No one knows the specs and it will indeed have a FFC, and pictures prove it.

I personally hope #2 is the correct answer.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] DroidTh3ory:
Okay, as I am sure we all see there has been a HUGE break through for our HD2 freedom thanks to all the Dev's here with the release of ClockWork Mod Recovery. I can for see a downpour of one particlular question flooding the forums... "Can you make a ROM ZIP Please".

I would assume that it can't be that much of a task to take a NAND build and make it flashable (Maybe I am wrong) but it seems all the hard stuff of creation is done, it becomes a matter of "format" (Maybe Not the Right Word). Extract Boot and System.IMG's, Editing a script?

So... Maybe we can all take the burden off some of the Devs doing this to our favorite builds? Then they can focus on what they do best... making this stuff work.

What is involved in doing this?

Hell, maybe I am way off and we should leave it to the Pro's?

I'm Ready.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Mazda:
I would have to agree. I'm not much of a developer but I can follow directions pretty good. I would come on board and like DroidTh3ory said, take some of the burden off some of the Devs.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] FrAsErTaG:
I would also like to a see a Nandroid (backup of nand to sd) type option so as if the new rom we flashed is not what we were hoping we can roll back the nandroid.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jpyper:
I am not a developer. I would be more than happy to help with doing the conversions if someone posts a way to do it.

The developers need to spend their time developing their builds to be the best that they can be. We, as a community, need to help the developers by taking the little tasks, such as file conversions, from the developers so they don't have to sweat the little stuff.

Linux BASH scripts are my friend. :)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dbshane:
Yes, flashing (actually recovering) a rom from SD is safe and simple. With recovery we could do these by ourselves.:)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Droidzone:
Ok, then try the kitchen. It allows import of nandroids and once imported, you can mod it whatever way you want.

Sent from my HTC Desire
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] DroidTh3ory:
Well, the first step is done.. We now have recovery. Now when just need something to use it with. :)

I was looking through the different builds NAND, RAM and SD. Besides everything being wrapped up in .img's, the NAND ROMS have the same files. Comparing to the ONLY Flashable [.ZIP] ROM I see no similarities.

Maybe RaiderX303 or another DEV can put us in the direction we would need to go. Software, Files, Steps, Etc
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] DroidTh3ory:
Okay so... When you are referring to Nandroids and you referring to backups? We have 3 build types at our disposal right now... NAND, RAM, and SD.

What would we compile out of the ROMS the DEVs have provided to use?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Mazda:
I think installing the dsixda kitchen is the first step in all of this. I'm installing it right now and I'm going to give it a shot using JDMS's NAND ROM.....we'll see what happens if I can get it to boot up in recovery or not.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] DroidTh3ory:
All right, I will do the same with the NEXUSHD 1.9 and see what happens.??? LOL
