I am running the rooted version of the HTC's official 2.2 OTA update.
Everything works well. I was really looking forward to the new 3D gallery in Froyo but I have the same old gallery. Though the app has been renamed from Pictures to Gallery, it still looks and functions the same.
Am I missing something or is it there somewhere? I hope someone knows the answer.
Thanks
Mods, Am I allowed to post a link or is that considered warez?
Not too sure what is and isn't considered questionable as far as the software that comes bundled with some default ROMS goes.

the 3d gallery is from the nexus one only, nothing to do with htc, you can download a mooded one from the market search for 3d gallery

its not wares unless its an aplication that you have to pay for so for example if a rom came with a free version of copilot, and u shared it that would be warez but apps that are made by the phone developers arnt
Didn't want to go getting myself into trouble but if you think it's acceptable then i've uploaded the gallery here for anyone who wants it:
http://www.martinsamuels.me.uk/phone/gallery_flan.apk
At least I think this is the one OP is referring to.

do that version also force close then i press the camera button in 3dgallery???
Thanks, thats the app I was referring to.
And yes, it does force close when I click the camera button. Is there a fix for that?
Are there other goodies in the N1 ROM that we are missing on the HTC's 2.2 on the desire.
Thanks for all the answers....
Theres a fixed camera version somewhere. I had it, but didnt like it
Can you help us find it?
I CAN ONLY SAY:::I think the gallery 3d is not good...compared to the stock htc gallery its...very laggy and it takes to long
with kind regards...Alex
um, I was just on the XDA mobile app this afternoon, saw that someone had released a miui rom with an english patch for the g2, and linked the main website for stock rom details, so I figured I'd wait till I got home, and now the thread is gone? I can't be that fuked up, I was on the subway, and lost data link

I had a feeling that the Rom wasnt gonna work. Everyone who flashed had the same problems I did 2 weeks ago. So far ive gotten a clean install with no errors but not boot. Which means kernel swaps from miui ports won't work. you have to build one.
I am the only one I believe who is actually working on this port. I won't release anything that won't boot, I've made lots of ports with 4 different kernels and they all do the same, which is not booting.
Currently learning to build g2 kernel from source so I can get port goin. If u guys wanna follow me hit me up @brownboyrx.
@gridlock32404 is helping me so if u know him, then u know I'm not joking. I really wanna get miui on g2 for me and everyone, stay tuned.

From what I've seen with Miui, there are several different themes. iPhone theme just happens to be one of them.
There's a lot I like and a lot I don't like about MIUI, but I think MIUI with ADW could be quite nice. I also like dev's that post bootable shiz.

Miui is a ROM built by a group of dedicated Chinese Android developers and was intended to be used in China to show off the Android platform. It was accidently discovered by a user over at the N1 forum some months ago and news of the discovery spreaded like wildfire overnight within the Android community. Since then Miui has been enjoyed and ported to a number of popular Android devices. Miui was ahead of it's time in terms of features, look and funtionality, it was repsonsible for the working of the radio on both the N1 and Desire running stock based vanilla ROM's. It has the best bits of Android and iphone and offers a very unique user experience, on a personal level the UI is intuiative yet beautiful. If you can get past the iphony look then am sure you'll enjoy this ROM if not then using a 3rd party launcher will get rid of most of the iphone look. The ROM is quick and stable and is updated every Friday at 3pm China time.
Check it out on their official website and be sure to use google translate as it's in Chinese;
http://www.miui.com/index.php
English forum;
http://miui-dev.com/
That was a great synopsis above.
The key points of MIUI:
It is Faster
Universal Themes
I still love Cyanogen too. My nexus runs MIUI and G2 Cyan. Good mix.

I started porting today and it boots up. But if I start any app and want to go back to homescreen I get a flickering screen. I have to disable the screen and enable it again. Then it doesn't show the unlock screen, just the statusbar (without clock) and the wallpaper. But if I touch the screen on the unlock position it vibrates. But it doesn't unlock. For unlocking I have to open and close the keyboard. After that the statusbar disapears and doesn't show up anymore until I restart.
http://pastebin.com/cnVFF9WF
Guess the main problem is because of this
Code:
I/WindowManager( 1520): Out of memory for surface! Looking for leaks...
But I don't know what I can do to prevent this.
Kernel is the latest one from CyanogenMod. Many other things work like bluetooth, radio, camera, torch, wlan...
With LPP it works alot better but there are still many bugs like the unlock screen not showing up...
Well thanks very much.

Since the thread got closed for who knows what, let's build a list of known issues, fixes and whatever else...
For one, my brightness didn't work, so I flashed Kernel #15 which fixed that issue. Now my camera only shows a white screen.
BTW, I looked for a similar thread, but didn't find one. I tend to miss things sometimes though.

I'm pretty sure the thread got closed, because wdfowty requested it be closed. Based on a comment he made in the thread, I presume he requested the thread be closed because of the ridiculous, juvenile, and inappropriate tags that people were leaving. So as usual, the thread was closed due to people acting like 3 year old kids.
Anyways, on your topic, I have fortunately not encountered any of the bugs that other people have mentioned in the thread. Everything I've been able to test so far is working perfectly. The only thing that I wish, is that HTC released the leak with Sense 2.1. I want a 2.1 sense rom with working 4g!!!
Right, people have been acting so ridiculously here lately.
Back on topic, camera with kernel 15 seems to be my only issue. Anybody got a link to just the kernel on the new leak? I would rather have my camera rather than brightness adjustable. Unfortunately.

When I turn on the camera/camcorder to take a pic/record, the screen appears all white. However, if you take a picture, it comes out but looks a little fuzzy. If I try to record a video in mpeg4, it will record but force close when it tries to save it. If I try to record a video using H.264, it force closes immediately. I tried clearing the data of the camera app and that did not help.
Weird.
I'm downloading Virus's version which has the camera fixed, but it may be just for pics. I think video still may be borked, but I cannot confirm that yet.
Edit: Forgot to add that I am running Netarchy's 4.3.4 kernel with the leaked 2.3 update.
Yea, the issue I had was brightness lock, fixed with kernel 15, which left me with the white screen camera.

i got my to work with everyting, but with the stock kernel.
I have a hardware 002 which I don't think is an Epson screen. I can not change the brightness on the leaked ROM. When I try to flash HTC Kernel 15 the phone won't boot it gets past the HTC EVO white screen but then hangs up right before the Boot Animation. You can tell the screen is on but nothing ever happens...

Do you mean the stock kernel that came with the leaked update, or the previousw stock kernel #15 like Rydah is using? I may just re-flash it with the stock kernel for now.
Or, just nandroid back to Myn's rom until all the wrinkles get ironed out. I don't see so much of an improvement so as to keep a buggy rom when it was working perfectly before.

ok - not to be a **** or anything but this begs the question:
Why do you WANT blur on your phone? Everyone i know with a blurred motorola phone struggles to make it blurless and wants to remove that crap as much as possible - it is a serious detriment to performance and battery life.

Because this version of blur is different from the others and better, and well because we on the g2 forums deserve variety, other than the 3 classic roms, sense,cm7 or miui. And no i dont think this rom will drain that much battery or affect performance, our gpu's beats the crap out of the omap that the droids have.
Also found that when calling someone it will restart the phone and it will keep you on the call till the os finishes reloading.

i'm guessing this is based on the Droid X GB leak - the blur is different than the blur on 2.2? My girlfriend was running stock 2.2 on the DX and getitng like 12 hrs of battery life. Then running Liberty 2.1 (blurless 2.2 based) she was getting 24 hours +. I flashed her over to the Liberty GB alphas (has a lot of blur in it) and have yet to see how the batt life is.
What i do know is that if you look @ running services (on the DX Liberty GB) and use an app like autostarts to see the on startup apps - blur has a whole ton of blur stuff that runs in the background from startup on - unrelated to ui changes and widgets.
What i fail to understand is not manufacturer ui (which differentiates) but why it has to be baked in so deep into the OS and kernel that it makes it impossible to remove if - god forbid - you want a more stock experience.
I have a lot of respect for any dev who brings more variety and software choice for our phones and i dont mean to undermine his work. I guess i just get pissed that companies like motorola make it so hard to go stock (particularly mess with that damned bootloader) that they would rather u ruin your device (i soft bricked my gf's droid x once and the only way to get back to stock is a complete SBF flash - a rare turn of events that i've never had the displeasure of running into on an HTC phone).
On a related note to this ROM, i noticed on Liberty GB (but not on Liberty 2.x) you can remove stuff from the notification area because there is a minus button (ie you dont have to clear all notifications or click on the notification itself to clear it - there is a button that enables its removal). Is this part of blur? I'd love to see this ported to AOSP.
I have a question. Does anyone know if you're able to run the stock camera from the Incredible 2 rom on CM7? If so, can someone running rooted stock Incredible 2 upload the APK? If not, can someone suggest a better camera than the CM7 camera?
Thanks

I was afraid it was a sense based camera. I guess the only other option is dealing with MIUI or this ****ty CM7 camera. It's fine except I'm one that hates random flashes of different colors come across my screen so when the green flashes, it bugs the living hell out of me lol.
How are you liking the Sensation 2.0 rom and the dirty chad kernel? Also, your 225 radio you have installed, does it work better than the 622 radio? I seem to get no reception on mine and I live close to a tower lol.

I love it, the smoothest so far for me. And the kernel is one he posted for another ROM, it just happens to work fine for this one. Charges faster and has profiles you can change as far as governors and voltage modifications.
The radio I'm running is still the stock radio by the way. I haven't messed with that yet. Haven't ran into anything major. I live out in the boonies and get 1X so I don't really care, I gots WiFi
Lol I live out in the boonies too and I get 0 bars and intermittent 3g/1x, thankfully I have wifi too lol

MIUI camera isn't too bad and there's a flashable version of it floating around here somewhere (compatible with CM7). My question would be around photo quality. Would a picture taken with a stock phone look the same as a photo taken with the MIUI camera (in 8mp mode) if printed out? It seems the sense camera is optimized for our resolution, but is overall picture quality any worse with MIUI? or does it have to do with the hardware?

It's an APK file so that means it is either installable or if that's not the case, you place it in /system/app and set the permission correctly
Permissions: can be set with root explorer
Owner - read, write, execute
Group - read
Others - read
The APK one should have working FFC capabilities. I've tried it out before starting this thread and it works great and looks very similar to the stock camera, except for the fact that when you take a picture, the screen flashes green which I can't stand. It's annoying but it does take pictures of the same quality as the AOSP camera. The other issue with the camera is that when the camera shows whatever it does, it is stretched, yet when you take the picture, it fixes itself and takes a normal picture. Quirky, but still works.

I love it, the smoothest so far for me. And the kernel is one he posted for another ROM, it just happens to work fine for this one. Charges faster and has profiles you can change as far as governors and voltage modifications.
The radio I'm running is still the stock radio by the way. I haven't messed with that yet. Haven't ran into anything major. I live out in the boonies and get 1X so I don't really care, I gots WiFi

I'm worried that if I try to flash the stock radio that I would brick the phone because the stock radio is for Froyo FW and CM7 is Gingerbread. lol
Update: just flashed the stock incredible 2 radio and it doesn't seem to have done much of anything lol

This is the Miui camera I use with CM 7.
Since I couldn't really see any need of wanting to use the stock camera, I renamed the apk to "camera" and replaced the stock camera app in the system folder, changed the permissions/ownership and good to go. (I did make a .bak of the stock CM 7 for a just in case moment)
I like the Miui camera app. I didn't have FFC with it though. I do though now using the latest Miui Rom though...

Which did you prefer? CM7 or Miui? Also, does your screen flash green when taking photos w/ the Miui camera on the Miui rom like mine does on CM7?

I assume your referring to camera's? If so, I prefer the Miui camera over the CM 7 camera.
As far as rom preference, I like both, but currently I'm using Miui.
When taking photos using the Miui camera on the Miui rom, the only thing that flashes green is just the viewfinder box. The actual screen just goes black.
I'd have to flash back to CM 7 to see if the camera flashes the screen green or not. I don't remember now if it did or didn't. I don't think it did, but I don't want to say that it didn't without checking...
I flashed MIUI earlier and it seemed nice, a little different than what I'm used to in CM7, but what I did notice that I absolutely dislike is that 1) I tried to restore back to CM7 and when going through the ROM manager, it said that my phone was essentially not rooted anymore (more specifically that superuser permissions wasn't giving ROM manager the permissions and I went into SU and checked and it was installed, updated, and was supposed to be giving permissions where it needed to be), and 2) Whenever you drag an icon off the screen to remove the icon, it only wants to uninstall the app. Other than that, it seems like a decent ROM.
Yup, the last couple of updates to Miui has had to have the permissions set on SU. Don't know what happened that it has to be that way. It didn't used to be that way.
I also don't care to much for the Miui Launcher, and it's unremovable apps (you can make folders though, and place the apps in there, but still not quite what I like). To Iphone for me... I use the Adw ex launcher (same that I use on CM 7)
Really, my version of Cm 7 and Miui are almost twins... Basically the only diff is in the menus and a few cosmetics.
CM 7 on the left, Miui on the right...
Holy ****! Finally someone else that has this same problem!

Whoa, I love your CM7 lockscreen. I'm new to all this so I have just the basic stuff that comes w/ CM7. Where do you find these things at?

Lol, which problem? Camera or the dislike of MIUI uninstalling stuff when you remove the icon off the screens?
