Great, booting now
First impression:
REALLY fast, can find Twidroid free(not the pro) so not all apps are working(i think)
but it's a lot better then the Sense...
This is great! Flashing this now.
Btw it has all Google Apps right?
Thanks!
Also, how soon can we expect working Camera?
yeah all works, can find a lot of programs(i have 2 apps now that i can't find, taskiller FULL and Twidroid Pro, but free editions of those are available)
HTC_IME.apk won't work gives a FC, looking for a dutch dictionary (A)
Thanks! Good job!
How about HTC Widgets, Clock and Calendar?
Great!!!!
Hi... seems like a good ROM.... whilst you might be working on it... would love it if u can possibly add in A2SD... that would be amazing. When should we expect the new ROM
Thanks
you've made my day!!!!!! cheers
Thanks, This is going on my hero tomorrow

are gone, it's a AOSP, that is without HTC stuff!!!
so NON Sense, no htc keyboard, no .............................
Absolutely fantastic. This is the fastest user interface I have ever experienced on any of my phones ever. Including my iphone 3G.
I now have almost everything I need in this ROM and I don't think I will try any other ROM until HTC releases their ROM. I might not even try that. I love vanilla Eclair (with sugar on top).
The only thing that annoys me is that my Exchange calendar still not synchronizes. Wonder why? But I can fix this via the Market. Not for free, though. :/
And, theres the issue with the camera. I guess that will be fixed pretty soon, though.
I have tested a bit, so its really damn fast . Camera not working like said in the topic, the Youtube apps seems non working too. If someone can confirm too.
But really good work . I hope you caontinu this Amazing work
Edit: About the youtube app, the application laucnh correctly but when i try to play an video the screen is black.

confirm, i hear the sound, but the screen is only black....
Video playback is unusable. Trying to play .mp4's from my sd card with meridian and it lags so badly that it is unusable.
The youtube application works, but I only get a black screen when I start playing a video.

Yes, I can confirm. You could add Meridian player for your videos.
Great work BTW dev. I like the cleaness and simplicity of this ROM, its also quite quick.
Also voice search is non usable
nice work.
Is it just me experiencing lag while swiping between homescreens?
ismaskin, I'm experiencing that lag too.
Also, isn't this the Moto Droid one? I like the AOSP 2.0 better, but I guess the sync problems killed that for me. Any way to get the sync to work on 2.0 now that its working on this? Somehow strip from this and attach to that?

I wonder if anyone can help and provide a cab for the new htc album (with iphone like picture switching-plus its waaaay faster than the default old one..)
I want to use it with some roms that dont include it!! (old manila..!!)
Many many people that still on stock roms would also find this very helpful!!
Sorry if i am wrong for opening a new thread here..!
Thanks in advance..
anyone..??

True..
But i flash a new rom every two days..!!! its gone out of control..i had my hd doing everything right but not being what it is..a phone!! (tons of problems answering calls with s2u2 caller id over new rodium dialer-which sucks-same s*** with resco contact manager which freezes every now and then in the newer builds..etc etc!!)
So i said i'll stick a while with a stock rom or 6.5..(6.5 after trying is out of the question..even with the 202 build..)
I found davideuck v7 and thought ok..give it a shot! And its amazing ..! AND RELIABLE!.. but with the "default" album..! which sucked from day 1 .. When you try the new one though you JUST CANT go back! So i wanted to know if its possible to have it VIA CAB!! Reflashing is not always a good thing to do cause for me its like 5 hours or so..(all apps from scrath etc..)
SO PLEASE IF ANYONE CAN HELP...!! stock rom people would also love this!!
Here you go...
I hope that I am not breaking any forum rules by posting this. It was included to older dutty roms. I think it is not the latest version but you have this real time slide feature already.
Have fun!
Thank you very much! Will try and report back!
too bad! didnt work.. i am currently using davideucks v7..
i didnt do something special (such as disable tf3d first or something..)
installed ok, soft reset. i can see pics but when i am trying to scroll..it freezes
Same happens on my device. Using Davideuck 6.5 V6.
I think the fact that its Duttys own cab for his roms means its most likely not going to work on any other roms but his!
After a lot of search i found many builds of the 3xx version of the album!!!BUT ALL PORTED FOR DIAMOND .. (vga) No one has the original wvga one ???
(if it can be found as cab could also be used in davideucks 6.5 v6.. dave said he will cook a build with it in the rom but a cab would be nicer for all!)
If anyone can tell me what this "new album" is I could make a cab. Right now I'm using a self-cooked ROM with Album version 3_0_19131221_0, and seriously think about recooking the ROM to include the stock Blackstone one.
What's so revolutionary about it?

Its fast..!! The new album is the version you are using, with the iphone style and smootheness changing between pictures.. Its from rhodium as far as i know..
Whether it's fast or slow depends on a lot of things apparently, it's very slow in this ROM and was fast in my previous one.
It works the same way as the old one in terms of transition between pictures anyway. And on the downside it doesn't rotate pictures.

So we are not talking about the same album! You would have seen so much difference that you could never go back to an older version! even with the limitation in zoom levels!
Back to start i suppose..

I think we are talking about the same Album. It was very fast in my previous ROM.
I can easily go back to anything though. I just don't care about viewing pictures too much. And even less so about whether it's like the Jesus Phone or not.
Can someone then port it from duttys 2.6 for example, so it can be usable with every rom..?? or at least of the same build?
New CAB sucks! I want the original! Where can I get the original! I love the circle to zoom that would zoom an image of a photo that was almost too small to see on the phone so close and in crystal clarity! This new album SUCKS! 1 level of zoom and it's damn grainy! Way grainy! Not crystal clear at all.
+1 with Molitar, I prefer the old one. On Blackstone we do not have hardware zoombar.

I found an $8 software called Kai's Deinstaller.. it actually worked after the update from the 1D. I ran it and back to the older album
Any progress on this? I could do with an up-to-date album on the rom I use...

You do realize that the HTC Legend runs HTC Sense? We already have a great theme for that. It's called HTC Sense and it comes with every HTC Hero out there.

yes iknow that but i would like to have the ui in settnings and like friendstream
watch video "Hands-on with the HTC Legend and the aluminum unibody" on youtube
Any 2.1 rom should have that menu and the friendstream is an app when someone gets hold of the .apk for it then that should be possible as well.
thanks for the infO

We won't be able to theme something like FriendStream, but like mentioned above, there will be an APK for it.
Within minutes of the Legend being released we will have a system dump. It won't be long.
I am also waiting a lot for the dev's to get the ROm of the HTC Desire and Legend and adapt it for Hero!
I am so excited to get all these new features ( i don't care about the stupid pinch to see desktops, but the copy-paste , Bluetooth audio on 2.1 ROM, the new contact widgets, etc..)
Villain is really nice but still buggy and i am sure it will get really better when he will get the Legend/Bravo sources!
im hoping its soon its a really nice UI !!
I'm looking forward to this as well. Does villain have good 3d gaming? i havent tried his yet because of this.

You do know we can already copy and paste don't you? Bluetooth audio works on some 2.1 roms already and so does the new contact widget and even pinch zoom on desktop. Currently the only real thing we are missing is the friend stream.

No it does have problems with this but that's more due to the files we have available than how he has made the rom, we need a more complete htc 2.1 rom before this will work properly

He won't get the Legend/Bravo sources! Android 2.1 is already available AOSP, and the HTC stuff is closed source.
To be honest, I rather expect the Hero update to be pretty much everything that will be on the Legend, so the real issue here is which will come first - the Legend or the Hero 2.1 update?

Dave

He probably meant that the copy and paste feature have been much improved since 1.5, if you watch the presentation of the new HTC phones.
In about a month, we're getting the same Sense update..
For the who wants to know:
The new ROM is already compiled for the Nexus one and works 99%.
I really hope that once it's OK for the N1, we will get it for the Hero!

This doesn't make any since because you want a 2.1 sense ROM that will also be given to the Hero?
The work making a rom based off of the Legend is pointless since it would be the same thing your getting.

Exactly, people don't seem to be understanding this point.
Also about 80-85% of the features are also available on custom roms (albeit maybe a little buggy until we get the real thing)
Hi all,
I don't need to introduce myself, so I just thought I'd start a thread regarding a query I have.
I'm working on a new build very very shortly - which will be a Vanilla build hopefully based entirely from Villain4.0 Beta 2.
Anyway. The question is regarding live wallpapers.
For those of you who use/have used an AOSP rom, please could you tell me every live wallpaper which worked correctly?
Also... every one which caused the phone to soft reset?
Thank you in advance,
NPR
I have tried all available AOSP roms with live wallpapers and to be honnest ckdroid was probably the best,due to the fact that all live wallpapers i tried do actually run but then once you perform a lock / unlock cycle it simply reffers back to stock wallpaper which the exception of less 3D intensive wallpapers such as the one with circles of colour and the bouncy balls one ? sorry cant remember the names.
Maybe a Power Issue or CPU becuase ive heard several people say if you have USB plugged in they stay on ?
I would love to have working live wallpapers on my hero and have even started my own thread regarding them not working but nothing it seems people say they dont work on hero yet G1 and Magic has them and the upcoming open eclair has them working 100% apparently ! which annoys me because the hero is superior to both in terms of specs ?
I plan on spending a bit of time on trying to make them work. Maybe not immediately, but soon.

We're having this issue with the Eris too. It seems any wallpaper that uses OpenGL and RenderScript will crash when the phone sleeps when it's not plugged in. Others that don't use RenderScript work perfectly fine. The only one in LiveWallpapers.apk that works completely is the Polar Clock I believe. Other 3rd party ones such as Bezier and Duck Hunt work fine as well.
OP, If you fix this issue Eris users as well will thank you. It's had us stumped.
I found aHero to be the best vanilla, its got a working 5MP
In terms of live wallpapers the nexus MOD wallpaper worked quiet well except the problem with it disabling when you lock the screen or screen times out. Shame really because it was running find behind everything and not really lagging at all.

Where did you get the wallpaper from? If you have it as an .apk file then you need to use an app installer program, root explorer does this or just search the market for 'app installer'.
If its installed, its a case of pressing the menu button on the homescreen and selecting wallpaper>live wallpapers and it should be in the list.
maybe you should collaborate with the guy who made this rom posted yesterday
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=651103
I have to say i flashed this last night,the rom has bugs that have been fixed in other roms so with a combanation of bug fixes ect this could be the one !
I have to say besides the bugs this is the best AOSP rom i have tried so far in terms of live wallpapers it seems even after sleep lock /un-lock cycle a lot of the live wallpapers work !
Working:
"digital Rain" Duck Hunt" "green" "water" "bezier" "Bokeh Rainbow" "grass" "living Colours" "LED scroller"
Not working:
"NexusMod" "EarthRot" "Galaxy" "Nexus" "Tea Garden"
Still testing others but deffinatley the best functionality so far !

The Andromadus Team is working on Jb from source, best posible way to expirience jellybean as it should be, follow there progress/releases here
Here it is guys jb for our beloved g2, this rom is based on the gnex jellybean leak that we saw couple days ago, right now rom is as useless as the word could posibly describe it, the rom boots just fine, but it seems the launcher does not like being render in software mode so it crashes non stop, i tried other launcher they dotn seem to work ether, im just posting this so maybe someone else can help me, to ether get launcher working in software mode or getting egl acceleration working, for this will we mostlikely need a 3.0 kernel.
Again bare in mind this is pretty much useless, and its not much fun to use, untill we solv the launcher issue, dont expect this to be a daily driver any time soon
Working:
Touchscreen forgot to mention this
It renders and reaches lockscreen thats about it, im sure i can fix more, but theres no point if we cant get the launcher working.

The thread proves that, unlike what a lot of people who knows little to nothing about programming say, JB can be ported to the G2 and it can boot.
First thing first. Stuffs come later.
@siulmagic: awesome at least it boots!
@siulmagic dont sell yourself short! It takes a lot to get something like this to boot! I am sure after a while someone will get something else to work. Like taz , he is a great porter!
lol i did not see those ads on the website, will upload somewere else, my bad haha.
I knew it was only a matter of time, n they said this wasn't possible? Sure there's issues and bugs but its still in the alpha stage.

I would have thought JB would have taken another year for anything to be on Desire Z.
I'm just learning these past 3 years and by no means unfamiliar with personal ports from other devices but took a look at doing something similar for my device for personal use and was humbled very quickly. It's the accomplishing of seemingly impossible tasks large well funded corporations don't bother tackling by one user who solves it on their free time that make me truly love open technology. Kudos. Keep it Up. Many Thanks!

i can very easily get ril working but there's really no point, if theres no working launcher =P.
Ok so Ive flashed a few roms here and there. Including some of the Cm9 and aokp roms and also some darkside. I found a issue that kept reappearing in every flash, the LED lights at the bottom would not always work properly. They do not light up when you turn the phone on and only light up once unlocked or after 5-6 seconds.. are there any fixes? Ive trying wiping several ways and i always flash according to the OP.
Im now on xtremeperia and I gotta say its the most gorgeous ROM ever. But it still has that problem that will not go away! Ive Pm'd the Dev but they dont have a fix, wondering if anyone else does..
Also heres a question to the Developers. First and foremost I am amazed by the work you guys do! Its great!! Im wondering if one of you guys can design a new camera App, something with a sexier layout! The one found in AOkp and CM9 are just way too boring and makes the phone look cheap as well as the rest of the rom! The stock ones in GB are also a bit boring, wondering if someone can design one that looks like that of what we see on other phones/ as in a better layout. Also a shutter sound that sounds like a real shutter! not the silly nexus ones! lol Not trying to say or offend anyone but im sure lots of folks agree with me on this...
please dont tell me to download a camera app, it feels nice to have a awesome built in camera that is fully functional.
thanks!
First part - AOKP's LED's work perfect for me. Not sure why they at the very least, dont work with CM9.
Second part - Honestly, I doubt any redesigning will take place any time soon... However, you can download other stock apps? Try MIUI's it's nice, and has lots of features. However, it doesn't do video... Stock app for that? - Click here for the camera.

umm.. Isn't a built in camera app an app? Simply put you have to actually install one you download, which takes how long? If you are looking for one that installs with a rom, you could always bake up a rom in the kitchen that installs your 3rd party one of your choice..
