[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dimension2035:
Lately my transfer speed has been going really slow. @ 0.3MB/s-0.5MB/s and it would take about 8-10mins to transfer a 250MB file. My question is, is Magldr 1.13 the cause? I have heard it has faults in the mass storage, but does it effect android when in use?

Normally I would I would get transfer speeds of up to 9MB/s and avg @ 3-4MB/s

Thanks,
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] voncrane:
You might want to try booting into AD Recovery from MAGLDR (dat's if you have one of the CWR 1.3 partitions installed) and then select mounts and storage and then usb mass storage from there. It doesn't have the bugs that MAGLDR mass storage has.....Or even better, get a micro sd card reader..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Digital Outcast:
MAGLDR is just a bootloader. Once you run an operating system, whether it may be WP7, Android, etc., the bootloader no longer has anything to do with it.

Try taking the SD card out and connecting it directly to a card reader and your computer to see if it is any faster.

I was trying to install cyanogen 7 on my captivate when I got an error about a missing kernel file or something, when I reboot my phone it says "convert data partition, system data not available"

When I boot into clockwork and try to do anything that involves reading off of the sd card I get an error that says "error mounting sdcard" I can however navigate the menus and even get into download mode.

Odin will not recognize my phone at all but my computer does..
[Captivate General] MaverickCoast:
Odin should see your phone. Are you in download mode? Make sure development option is checked and DON'T MOUNT YOUR PHONE. Also try opening Odin BEFORE you plug in your phone. Plug in again if Odin doesn't see it the

nevermind, got Odin to recognize it somehow and flashed back to stock. I'm gonna re-root it and put on andromeda 2.1

I am having a similar issue with my att samsung captivate. I went from 2.2 to cyanogemod 7.1.0

Phone worked for a few days, then won't mount internal sd. Says "Damaged sd card. You may need to reformat." However when you do it does nothing. Have tried reflashing rom. Will mount in cwm recovery, but not cyanogenmod. Odin will not recognize. Computer won't recognize. Will go into download mode.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thank you so much.

I never really played with Android, but I was wondering how you "flash" a custom rom to a phone? If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great. Thanks

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Fekish:
Hello,

i suppose everyone in here are using a custom ROM.

And also everyone here goes through the forum to see for any updates...

Is there a way to have an application that would notify us for specific updates for every ROM? It would've been cool to see how many downloads each ROM has, also any new updates and thus through this it would be easier to understand which ROMs are downloaded the most...

I am not a developer so i don't know if this is possible.

Thanks

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Nissan350:
looks nice! have you tried using picme from the market? great app for grabbing screens. Easy to use too.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
thanks for the tip! Updated screenies are now posted
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Nissan350:
no problem!! ;) i just noticed, whats your lcd density set to? your icons are tiny!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
density is at 180 right now :D

I wanted a phone that could do most sense things but still be high res. Browsing the web is real nice. I like the XDA app but its really easy to browse the full page on the regular browser on the phone!

I would've skinned the sense launcher but the animations are too messed up since they were designed for 240 density. It is a little different not having the HTC widgets but with my new transparent ones and Launcher Pro I'm adjusting quite nicely.

I may release another rom with a Blizzard themed sense launcher if I can figure out the animation upscaling and program crashes ect. but that all depends on how much free time I get.

I actually was putting the finishing touches on it when virtuous 0.9.5 released (doh!). I'm waiting till they bring back the reboot menu though :cool:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Dream Reality Syndrome:
I was just wondering, why would you use LauncherPro with a Sense rom? I just recently flashed my first Sense rom to see what was so great, n when I installed LP I couldn't use any Sense widgets (which kinda bummed me out)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
the idea was to have a blue themed HD launcher with access to HTC applications which was something I couldn't do with a stock rom due to the lack of framework files ect.

The sense UI is still intact, but isn't quite as appealing graphically (especially at this resolution) in my opinion.

The rom does come without launcher pro installed as you currently manually install it (see directions above). However if you decided to change back to sense you can uninstall launcher pro and hit home to select Sense UI. It still functions fine. All the widgets are there. The only issues I found were the HTC Clock and HTC Hub apps not liking the resolution.

If you'd like to try the rom on a stock 240 resolution I can post a custom build.prop file for you.

although its not the experience I intended for this rom I'm certainly open to customization and would like to keep this rom as flexible as possible.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] troby86:
So its Virtuos 0.9.0 with a blue theme? Not really a new ROM.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
Well actually if you refer to the top post its blue themed AND the following

A different lock screen

A modified call screen app (to stop accidental call answers from pocket swipes)

Flip animations/screen transitions

A 3d app drawer

A higher than normal resolution desktop with scaling fixes

The stock deskclock

A new text font (ubuntu)

And more to be added in future releases.

I know not everthing comes out of the box yet (launcher pro, example) and its being worked on right now. My goal for the next release is to automate the install so the user only has to do the htc setup and maybe 1 or 2 steps.

I realized this started as a theme but once you start adding up the other features it really starts looking like a rom. I guess I have to ask where you draw the line between a rom and a theme?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] troby86:
Good point.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Nissan350:
I tried to set my density to 190 a while back. It looked extremely nice but when i get a call it looked like the 4th pic of your screenshots. I tried to ignore it but couldn't. SO I ended up setting it back to 240 (ugly)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MishXT:
i would have it on my desire z but id rather have the htc sense working like the weather and what not u get me
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
yeah I hear ya, the call screen does look a little screwy. As for app compatibility with 190 (or 200, i don't remember) the HTC clock and HTC hub works again, but i got too used to the cool HD look of the lockscreen and browser.

I'd love to figure out how to recompile xml's in the sense build but haven't got to that point yet. Once i learn that maybe i can scale up the dialer (among other tweaks ;) )

yeah I here ya, if I can find a way to get HTC widgets with a HD launcher believe me I'll update this rom that second!

Till then it looks like its either HD look without HTC widgets or HD sense but with weird looking animations...

Please note, you can still use sense on this rom if you skip the launcher pro install steps, but it just looks weird, and isn't themed yet.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MishXT:
izinit it would look weird but ill try it out
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MishXT:
whats the normal density of desire z? because i really like this rom but i do want the normal density
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dictionary:
240

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MishXT:
thanks :)

only problem now is that im not able to overclock cpu to 1.8 like last time, well i ca but the downside that i wifi dont work, ive even pushed the bcm4329.ko to my phone, restarted and yet it doesnt work, hope you can fix this on this rom because this rom is really great
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MishXT:

thats the overclock im relating to, i flash the zimage, push the ko file but wifi doesnt work, says error
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
yeah I've been working on that thread today. I'm pretty much at the same spot you are but its being worked on. If I make any progress I'll either update the rom post or let you know what I did to fix it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MishXT:
awesome :) cheers for that

if its fine with you, would it be ok if you can message me on this in case im not on xda because of uni is killing a lot of time for me
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MishXT:
how do i keep the density at 240 so whenever i do restart my phone, it wont change back, it would stay at 240 because i dont want to keep on changing the density all the time when i reboot the phone
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
There's a line you edit the density in the build.prop file located in /system/

You can edit it in wordpad or any unix text editor but notepad seems to be picky...

Also for those curious I'm about a day away from releasing v0.5 once it passes my last tests.

The new version still has a density of 180 but also a much more HD wallpaper and HD call screen that doesn't look as weird. It also features a lot of other things which ill have to figure out once I write the changelog ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
Hey folks, its time for an update!!!

Sensored Blizzard V0.5 is finally released, check the OP for download links & install directions

V0.5 ChangeLog:

New rom base! RUU_Vision_Orange_FR-B2B_1.85.73.2 (Prepared by: rmk)

Instead of using Virtuous as a base I will be using the RUU's for a more custom & individual feel.

To setup this rom the following was done (and more & I cannot recall at this point)

-Changed setup defaults, languages, removed Orange apps & other non-essentials

-G2-Keymap Revised www. = tab (By teferi)

-Trackball Wake (By eViL D: )

-Swype Added (set to default) (See G2 Licensing thread for swype legals)

-Power & Reboot Button Menu (By Robocik)

-Swapped out 3G+ to a blue 4G icon. (By 82_Z28)

Setup defaults has been revised & images tweaked

Rosie launcher has been turned off, Launcher Pro starts up by default (Rosie can be turned back on if you rename Rosie.apk.OFF back)

Vanilla Text Messenger Included instead of HTC (I missed its nicer features)

Made/edited a new live wallpaper for the theme

Swapped out the static wallpaper for a higher resolution one to use the 180 density

Made more framework tweaks to add on to the theme

re-created the phone screen for 180 density with new images

Added a few useful apk's from the market

-Note Everything

-RingRoid

-CacheMaster

-LCDDensity

-Titanium Backup

-Rom Manager

-Spare Parts

Visually some more notable differences are I've remade the buttons for a Ice like feel.

I've also added the Screen Off and Lock to the Launcher Pro panel (which was long overdue)

I haven't tested this so I'm not sure what will happen but if you want to tweak the rom heres stuff you can try:

how to get rosie back (sense launcher) rename the following:

/system/app/rosie.apk to /system/app/launcherPro.apk

/system/app/rosie.apk.OFF to /system/rosie.apk

how to get stock resolution back

-edit with WordPad or Unix txt editor: /system/build.prop/

change line:

ro.sf.lcd_density=180

to:

ro.sf.lcd_density=240

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MishXT:
i dunno if its my download but i dunno if you signed the update? it says the same thing as before, installation aborted
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
Can you extract the archive with winrar?

Could be a corrupted download but I can post checksums when I get home to be sure.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
alright then, I tested a download and compared MD5 to the original and it matched.

MD5=7fdad6d83ad75095a0b595f8d906b4d4

I've tested a freshly downloaded .zip in ClockworkMod 2.5.1.3 & 3.0.0.5 (G2's)

I'm thinking its a corrupt download but if it still has issues with the checksum above let me know and I'll look into it further.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MishXT:
Ok thanks will check it out as soon as I get home :)

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KyuubiKing:
Works great so far but my backup wasn't restored. Screen resolution and orientation is awesome tho. This has always been one of my favorite sense roms.

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
if your talking about a launcher pro backup you had, the folder gets formatted on installation of the .zip (as mentioned in the install directions)

but you can always nandroid back to your previous, make a launcher pro backup, then rename the folder to /sdcard/launcherpro_backup_OFF

then overwrite it back after installing the v0.7 rom.

Glad to hear your enjoying the rom :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
Nice man. Will flash 2morrow. Lol got to sleep. Oh yea it looks very nice. Lol I remember when your rom first came out. Anyways great job bro
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] darkphoenix2012:
This is one of the most beautifully themed sense roms I have EVER seen... Thank you so much for this gem.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MrFrankfromCM:
I flash the ROM as per the OP without any problems. ROM looks great and runs fine. I'll run it and see how it goes but I am impressed so far.

Great work Z28!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
thanks for the kind posts everyone :)

I'm hoping to find a way to get transparency to work with the notification screen, but we shall see.

I noticed a few glitches while I was at work today, let me know if anyone else is experiencing any of these:

-Random switch to windows on occasion (not a lack of ram thing...)

-Pandora seems to be taking longer between tracks (could be t-mobile in my area though)

also confirmed

-Contacts don't show up on the dialer screen

a work around for this is to manually go to the contacts. Not sure whats causing this one...

The rom base is based off a leaked, not complete rom so its going to have its quirks but seems stable enough for the most part.

I'm quite curious to see how the android 3.0 porting threads go... would be awesome to have Sensored Blizzard on 3.0 :eek:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MrFrankfromCM:
Is there an OC Kernel I can flash if only WiFi is lost? I don't use WiFi ever. Thanks.

ROM is kick ass though!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
well I tested a few a while ago, but the only one I could get to boot was the G2 1.8GHz fast kernal but it has quite a few issues so I didn't look too far into it. It "should" work but expect to see weird issues as it really wasn't intended for this build...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MrFrankfromCM:
So, is this ROM dead?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
nope, I still have some dev ideas, I've just been taking a break getting reacquainted with my xbox 360. I'll probably be resuming work later this month. The next update should be a few minor fixes/enhancements. Then a big update once HTC's sense gingerbread pops up.

I personally having been running into a few minor but annoying quirks but can't complain due to the fact that its based on a leaked rom to begin with.

Still around though ;)

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
Any news on sensored Blizzard?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
Well I've started a port to the new Sense 3.0 (not sure which base yet but should be a nice change either way)

Most of the framework is ported over,

one major task I wanted to accomplish was a clear glass notifications pulldown but I'm having trouble locating where HTC stores their background image.

Other than that I was just about done with the port based on the older Virtuous 3.0 base with the remaining issue being the calender & weather not fitting on screen.

Now with the new update from rmk and the others it looks like I might have a new base to play with. I'm kinda all over the place these days with projects but should have an update or at least a beta to play with pretty soon.

Stay tuned :cool:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stratspider230:
Dude..downloaded and brilliant. Its the fastest Sense I've ever used. My favorite part so far (other than the theme) is the fact it actually has a 4G indicator instead of H haha. So far so good my friend, props.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stratspider230:
I don't understand why no one else is commenting or using this rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ihateusernames:
I just installed it last night. Wanted to test drive awhile before commenting.

I have tried a couple sense roms and decided sense wasn't for me. After getting bored with cyan, I decided to look around. Stumbled upon this thread and liked the screenshots. So far, I am really diggin this rom. The theming isn't to over the top and pretty clean.

I think I will stick with it for awhile so looking forward to any updates.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Can't speak for others but I generally don't try things if there is not screen shots so I got an idea of how it looks...I know a lot of other people operate the same way :) just a suggestion.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
thanks everyone for trying the new updated rom :) Very Appreciated

actually whenever I update the rom, I update the screenshots and description on the first post (front page) so that it reflects the latest rom.

The only screenshot that wasn't updated was the homescreen shot which looks very similar but less icons and torch instead of teslaLED but i forgot to change the screenshot out. I may update it later but I'm neck deep in XML files trying to find a way to get this transparent pull down notification screen to work which is my highest priority since it'll be awesome once done.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stratspider230:
Is there anyway to disable LauncherPro and go with stock Sense homescreen? I miss my weather widget haha
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
well I haven't really tested the HTC launcher but I assume it works fine.

Your best bet is to rename the files using adb while in the recovery

or (not as recommended) with a root file manager like Super Manager while in the system (again, probably not the best idea)

how to get rosie back (sense launcher) run in adb to rename the following:

mount /data/

mv /data/system.app/rosie.apk /data/system.app/launcherPro.apk

mv /data/system.app/rosie.apk.OFF /data/system.app/rosie.apk
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Stratspider230:
Ty sir. If I can get to a comp Ill give it a whirl
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] malloy0:
I am liking the speed of the ROM and the fancies. I did flash a bunch of parts and pieces from different themes to keep the blue, but a litlte most in some other areas.

Wondering, when I did a fresh flash I seemed to have 200-250MB less space on my phone (from 750MB left vs. 425MB) than a few other ROMs including others that are Sense, CM7 and MIUI.

P.S. I use my work corporate email, this GoodLink or Good for Enterprise which I know is a big space user, but all else equal...

Wondering is this just me? Perhaps unzipping, rezipping my theme files resulted in file not being optimized?

Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 82_Z28:
its probably the size of the images themselves rather than the compression of the archive. I recompress the framework-res.apk file with 7zip with no compression so its most compatible but the end result is a bigger file. (but not that big)
