YQW, glad you're enjoying the Loki experience.

I thought I had removed the full battery sound from 2.2.7 and up, but that must have been in my mind only. It is already out of the JPJ I'm working on.

For the auto updates, I have seen a few post about it, but its not happening for me that way. Some apps update, core system apps like maps and gmail, if there are updates available, but the rest of my apps aren't auto updating. It could be that I'm super retentive about keeping my apps up to date. I typically update all my apps, backup with titanium, then flash a new rom, so my titanium restore will have all my current versions. That may lead to me not having any updates to perform. Next time I flash, I won't update before hand, and see what happens.
[Vibrant Android Development] da_dragon2k3:
As soon as I logged into my google account and set it to sync up, it started downloading a bunch of my third party free apps.

Doesn't Wipe Data/Factory Reset gets rid of the portion the apps are stored? Either way, before flashing this rom all my apps were upto date.
[Vibrant Android Development] OldeCrow:
The auto-updating apps from the market is awesome! call me crazy there are lots of tw roms without battery charge notification, I am discovering it's kinda nice having it in there!
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
I may have lied to all of you last night, and for that I am sorry, but you probably won't be too disappointed. Seems I was a bad technician at work today, something about my attitude, go figure. Me, with an attitude? Try the impossible customers that call my help desk, but I digress. On a positive note, I now have time to work on that that JPJ today! :D We have new EDT init scripts, haptic feedback fixed, and this baby is humming! So for now, I'll excuse myself back to the lab, and continue cooking.
[Vibrant Android Development] cmosvirii:
I'm a rom flashing addict as of late to see how others are working but ALWAYS go back to Loki for my daily .... Can't wait bro. Keep up the spectacular work.
[Vibrant Android Development] briansj:
How come there is no new rom yet? Lol

XDA app on Loki 2.2.9
[Vibrant Android Development] illego:
Are you sure you want to use 2.3? That will bring a flood of "is this gingerbread" questions.
[Vibrant Android Development] cmosvirii:
If they can't read its a jpj build and know from that tidbit of info from the op....then those "is it gb?" Questions should die unanswered...imo
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
I thought about that, I may jump a version number, still debating.

And on that hand, those that don't know better can always refer to my disclaimer. :D

Attitude, me? NEVER. lol

Want to ask a question, I just booted the first build. Doesn't have the lock screen options yet, and had to go with white menus for the early build, this framework is giving me fits with certain xmls. Are you guys going to be able to live with that for the time being?
[Vibrant Android Development] dvno:
Same here, I always end up back at Loki, and damn 2.2.9 is awesome. Very happy with this release.

On a side note I was trying to register on sxeweb.com and it kept saying my challenge question answer was wrong???

Whats another name for 2.2.........froyo?!?!
[Vibrant Android Development] cmosvirii:
2.2.9 is def the best yet. Im ready when u are. Not to mention youll get feedback on any issuse to work into a 2.3.1. Idk. Just a thought.

... or of u need some testers... lemme know ;-)
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Thanks for the offer to test, I will definitely keep that in mind for future builds, but I have to say everything so far is working perfectly. I'm skipping the 2.3.x version series, to avoid any confusion, and jumping to 2.4

JPJ is uploading now, it won't be much longer....
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
OP Updated

Version 2.4.a

-Skipped version numbers 2.3.x, for obvious reasons

-Complete rebuild, ZSJPJ Based.

-Home Key Haptic Feedback Fixed

-EDT init tweaks, including memory management, zipalign tweak, gps, and additional performance tweaks
[Vibrant Android Development] bdubs4200:
Any chance (if you could direct me how) to change the pull down? I love all the green, (hehehe) I just don't like the looks of the grey chain link look n the ying yang... doesn't look that great imo...

[Vibrant Android Development] ryselije:
Great job but like all 2.2.1 roms, I can't mute ringing with volume button :-(
[Vibrant Android Development] OldeCrow:
Just some initial thoughts before I head off to bed!

the first time setup was different (incomplete), didn't ask for my gmail info, market didn't autoupdate like the previous roms, in defense of this build I did flash some of my own updates before letting the rom boot, not sure if I flashed them before or not.. hopefully others can confirm the first time setup and market app auto install.

multi lock screens are gone, kinda nice an clean that way, google voice to text is missing the adaptive learning checkbox (not sure what it was really called) if adaptive learning is enabled by default and no option to disable is what is going on here then that is fine.

seems more stable and seems much happier to run at 1.2 with overstock.

media scanning still seems slow? maybe just something to do with the hackjob that lets external sd's work with 2.2.1 roms on vibrants?

will go head to head with the thunderbolt at work tomorrow and see how it does :D

I kicked the dog water out of the thunderbolt at work today running bionix-v with overstock so this 2.2.1 should hold it's own just fine.

all in all this is looking really good!
[Vibrant Android Development] imitebewrong:
Fantastic work here bricked. This is now my daily driver. By far the most stable and smooth 2.2.1 for my phone so far.

One request. Could you do a non wipe update as an option for the next update? The frequency that you update is incredible. Great work!
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Thanks for the good words guys, some notes before I go to work.

I remember reading on another thread (don't remember which one) that it worked for someone if they pressed the middle of the volume button, as opposed to volume down to mute ringing. Give it a shot.

I noticed the single setup, didn't have the second portion that the previous i9000 builds did. Whats equally weird is that this is using the exact same phonesetup and setupwizard apks as we've been using in every other i9000 so far.

For the google auto sync, I don't even know what was causing that, never experienced it myself, was never an intended feature.

My media scanning runs in about 2 seconds, and I have about 8 gigs of mp3's on my internal. Maybe you have a large thumbnail cache that is slowing it down? Just a thought.

Some of the behaviors of apps may be different than what we are used to. JPJ is an Asian based rom, so things may work a little differently than the European base that my previous 2.2.1 have been. I don't really use the voice options, but I'll look into a different search app.

Depends on the level of the update. This was an entirely new rebuild, and needed a full rom flash. The past few days of frequent updates are not going to be the norm.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sdobron:
Strange, 0 birds in view on the gps. Got full lock in this same location on Trigger 2.8.1.
[Vibrant Android Development] bish708:
Its now a long press on volume key,I had same concern.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sdobron:
Works the same as froyo for me..
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Not sure whats causing it not to connect, any logcat love for that? Attached is a screenshot, sitting at home on the couch (left work early troday). Took about a minute to lock, and since the ss has jumped to ten of ten sats locked, 14 feet of error. Best my own GPS has ever been.
[Vibrant Android Development] OldeCrow:
I kinda figured the change in the setup was related to the market not auto-updating. If you and the rest of the EDT team can figure out what makes this work it would certainly be one of those trademark features that would keep me from straying to other roms :D

It is really nice open up Ti and tell it to restore my email data and be done with the setup!

I keep all my rom backups, music, video, wallpapers, icons on the external. I will save logcats of this rom media scanning and a 2.2 rom for comparison, its a good idea to dump the thumbnail cash for the external though and see if maybe there is something in it that 2.2.1 doesn't like!

I did notice my skill at playing speedx 3d has not improved with this rom though :p
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
The thumbnail cache on the internal as well, in the DCIM folder may have a lot of stored images. Also, something often overlooked, are voodoo logs. It seems to make a new log every time you reboot, let alone flash a rom or enable and disable. I regularly delete the whole folder and let voodoo build is back as needed. I remember the first time I looked in that folder I was floored at all the folders and files. I would suggest mounting to delete it from your pc, takes way too long on the phone. I reflashed this morning, and my initial media scanning took a little bit, but it usually does. It finished within the ten minute waiting window (which I do follow), then after reboot, it ran in about five seconds, both cards together, and was done. You might want to also try backing up your files, formatting your storage, then restoring everything. I've had to go that route before after many many flashes, something corrupted, I was having massive internal and external sd weirdness, and a format fixed it up.

I'm thinking of what may have caused the auto update, I'll be doing some filedif against 2.2.x versions to see if there's an obvious difference in the setup or prop files that may be causing it. I haven't been able to recreate that action, and its never happened on my own device, but I'll chase that ghost for a little bit.

Now finally, lets be fair here, I can only try to speed up the phone, I have no control over your thumbs! :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Sdobron:
Actually got it working, just took a reboot.
[Vibrant Android Development] ryselije:
Oja, its working, thank you!
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
I think I've been thinking too hard about the Google Auto Sync you guys are experiencing. Y'all are syncing your accounts during the second setup wizard that was popping up, right? I skip that part and sync my account later, when I'm going through settings, and to think about it, habitually I uncheck auto-sync before I enter my account info, probably the exact reason I don't get the apps syncing. But, I've fixed it, the second setup wizard is back, and will return with the next version.

Edited: Please disregard what I had here, I was thinking too hard, no issue here.

Lock Screens

Where do I change the lock screen?

I cannot find it under display settings which where it usually is.

And also, do i have to dl an app from the market

to access my files? "Files" seems to be gone too.
[Vibrant Android Development] tissimo:
Sorry if its been covered before, but is there anything special needed to push the TouchWiz messaging app in place of the aosp? I like the TouchWiz messaging app better.

[Vibrant Android Development] Androidawg:
THere is an app on your phone called Linda File Manager. That is what this ROM uses instead of Files.
[Vibrant Android Development] Younhadroid:
thank you.

i should have browsed more about it before asking questions.. lol

=)
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
You got up on the file manager thx to the dawg, but please read the OP, Lock Screens are addressed in like the top section.

Nope, you just need one compatible with 2.2.1, version made for 2.2 will not work, and may want to pull the messaging app from the JPJ jellette posted to be on the safe side, or if you have problems with other versions. This is a different framework again, cleaner still than the European version ever was, so some thing that are European 2.2.1 native may not work, may not find the framework images they need. Word to the wise, always maintain your backups just in case.
[Vibrant Android Development] jscarano:
Any way to change font color for notifications text. Very hard to read black on dark gray. thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] Younhadroid:
my bad. i must have missed that somehow. I just saw below in the changelog

in the versions ahead, there were different lock screens and assumed

it was the case for this version as well.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Where are you getting black on grey? Can you screenshot that for me. All of my framework settings for notifications are set for off white on dark grey, however some apps to show up with black text. I believe that is due to the app developer coding it into their app, rather than relying the framework settings of the rom top provide those values. The exact thing thats going on with Miui Music, it doesn't appear to be relying on the framework settings, and so far there isn't a thing I can do about it. You can see it listed as my only Loki Specific bug in the OP, although I should expand on the bug, as someone recommended to me before.

So screenshot if you would be so kind, or what app are you using thats showing the black notifications?
[Vibrant Android Development] g2tl:
speaking of colors, none of the themes from the theme section seem to work. is it a rom issue, or 2.2.1 issue? I'm on 2.2.9
[Vibrant Android Development] OldeCrow:
I did a fresh load without installing any mods just to be sure it wasn't just me, it does only do the license agreement, sans gmail setup, market autoupdates...

You know if those last couple of roms hadn't done that I never would have known it was possible since this is my first android phone and no roms I've run until loki did it :D
[Vibrant Android Development] jscarano:
here you go
[Vibrant Android Development] bdubs4200:
Soooo can someone help me figure out how to change the pulldown?? Thars the only un attractive thing about this beauty
[Vibrant Android Development] Younhadroid:
ditto

+1

I would love it to be smoother
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
I haven't put any themes on top of Loki. Its my understanding to flash 2.2.1 themes, you should remove the services.jar and svc.jar from the theme before flashing it, and for any theme, make sure its compatible with the firmware version (JS5, JPJ). A little more information about your steps, errors, and logs definitely help to troubleshoot.

This is my first android phone too. :cool:

Ok, so that falls under the answer I previously gave, its the app friend, write the app dev and request they get their values from the roms framework, not their own coded values.

The pulldown images are located in the twframework-res.apk in the system/framework folder. You can unzip it with an app like 7zip, change the images you want to change, put them back into the apk, and push that back to your phone.

Thank you Bricked for the reply.

Actually I don't backup and restore my contacts, I just login into my gmail account and it syncs and appear on my phone.

I will try to inquire the structure of my gmail contacs to see if i can eliminate the problem, Since some of the contacts does apper correctly, But they only have phone data and were added recently as i recall.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Mua Ha Ha Ha Ha!

Thanks to some advice from jellette, I am having a whole lot more success with the framework edits that were holding me down the last couple of days. Our black menu's are back, and if I can get the Lock Screens and Clock Options to take, v2.4.1 (out of alpha or beta status) will be released today.

Edit - and should be a no wipe update, its simple framework mods at this point.
[Vibrant Android Development] s15274n:
Awesome to hear. A few things on my wish list:

- Inclusion of Widget Picker/Grouper (very small file at 17kb and a lot of benefit)

- Smoother notification bar animation when sliding up

- Was the swype beta included stock, I did a restore of missing apps so I'm not certain, but it took a little effort to get swype working correctly for me. Could be my bad.

- Any clue if the semi-accurate battery morph from trigger will work, it is my fav battery indicator.
[Vibrant Android Development] blaqr0d:
How do I usb connect to my pc...it wont connct...noov question iknw but sheesh...
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
-What benefits does the Widget Picker give us over the current widget selection in the included launcher2. No a lot of info on that thread. I have no problem including it, just wondering what the advantages might be.

-I try look into the animation, but honestly don't even know where to begin hunting that one down.

-Swype is never included in Loki, I detest that keyboard. Did the add on on the OP not work?

-I don't think that the Morphs for Trigger will work, simply due to the fact that those are 2.2, and this is 2.2.1.

This is covered in the OP friend, turn on USB Debugging.
[Vibrant Android Development] cmosvirii:
Found this with as I mentioned before Pandora and newly discovered Fancy widget weather notification.
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
What else have you tried in your troubleshooting? Another USB port perhaps? How does it react on a different computer? Did you set the USB connection mode in Wireless and Networks. Seems to be an isolated incident, as there have been no other reports. Did you try to reflash the rom?
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Did you ever make any headway on it from your end?
[Vibrant Android Development] cmosvirii:
Life took over a bit and got side tracked with a few things. Im gonna try some diggin this weekend.
[Vibrant Android Development] s15274n:
Widget Picker just groups all of the like widgets... ie, Beautiful Widgets has about 11 widgets, rather than have all 11 listed, with this small file in system/apps, now when you go to add a widget, Beautiful Widgets would only be listed once, and then you can select it to get all the options.. it really just groups/de-clutters. I apologize, I froze the GB launcher since I use ADW EX. I do not think it did this though prior to me moving that file to system/apps

I don't know how to make the notification bar animation smoother either.... wish I could help.

Since Swype is not included, my hiccups must have been from my TB restore.

Thanks for a great rom man.
[Vibrant Android Development] Mdtolic:
@Br1ck'd - I've been loyal to one dev since I started flashing custom ROMS. I honestly felt that the Team Was awesome and the ROMS they produce were top notch; and I still do. There was no reason for me to look anywhere else. However, after a, not great, experience testing a cold ROM and then unacceptable battery drain after going back to my standby, I had to do something different.

I wasn’t going to look around much. No offence, but Axura is big and Trigger is buzzing. It was going to be one of those. But I somehow started reading this thread before I got to either of them. After just a few pages, I was downloading. By the time I finished the thread I was already flashing, according to your instructions, and… HOLY **** DUDE, LOKI is killer!

The next day my battery, which drained fast at first, was still going strong at 10PM. That was day1! No tweaks to GPS and have used it several times this week without a hitch. Haven't even switched back to SWYPE; even though I gave myself the option. Contact list looks awesome and simply flies.

I just had to say thank you man. I’m thrilled to have discovered such a gem.

P.S. It looks like you may have a new update already? I’m not sure I want to risk changing a thing just yet!
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
I understand that one friend

The AppWidgetPicker is in the new one. I installed it and had a wow this is awesome moment, thanks for the heads up on that one.

I put new anims into thsi framework, the same ones I was running in my 2.2.x version, hopefully makes it smoother. I hadn't noticed anythign, but I do keep anims turned off.

Apparently my Swype zip in the OP is no good, its a popular KB, I'll look into a resolution.

:D Did i mention, :D

The battery needs about a day to calibrate correctly, but once this settles in with s0niqu3's kernel, its amazing. Thanks for the feedback.

The with the next update, which is almost done uploading (5 more minutes) there will be a no wipe version, as well as a full rom. It includes all the lock screens, my lovely black menus, clock options, and enhanced EDT Tweaks. Taking 2.4.x out of alpha/beta status, its solid.
[Vibrant Android Development] Mdtolic:
Who am I kidding? My phone is already charging so it will be ready when I get home tonight. No wipe is a bonus. Thanks again!
[Vibrant Android Development] Br1cK'd:
Op Updated

v2.4.1

-Black Menus have returned, thanks to jellette for assistance with my framework woes.

-Lock screen option have returned, thanks to Whitehawkx for the source

-EDT Tweaks have been re-edited to streamline performance.

-AppWidgetPicker added

-As far as the drop down anims not being smooth as some have reported, can you give me a bit more description, I don't really notice a problem myself, but I turn anims off. Also I did change the anims in this version, let me know if its better for you.

-The FFC should be working, I don't have the device, can't test it, but would love a confirmation, thx.
[Vibrant Android Development] briansj:
so far so good :D
[Vibrant Android Development] g2tl:
Nice update.

I like this one the best out of all I've tried.

Continuing from our previous discussion, how would I remove service.jar and svc.jar? I can't seem to find how-to's for that.

p.s.

Major problem is that I can't locate the file itself from the themes using 7zip.

p.p.s.

looks like only some themes have services.jar in them. So I tired ones that have, and unfortunately, the bootloop still occurs. I've tried gingered and tangerine. Most others did not have services.jar in them.
[Vibrant Android Development] ucsblaw:
Wondering if anyone can lend a hand here. I was running Loki 2.2.8...was in the process of flashing 2.4.1 when my phone froze in recovery. I had just cleaned cache and dalvic...fixed permissions and was about to scroll down to install zip from SD when my phone froze. I had to remove the battery and now my phone is stuck going from the google splash screen to the vibrant splash screen and back. I'm not sure what I need to do now...
[Vibrant Android Development] briansj:
Did you try to boot into recovery with 3 buttons?
