Re-Introduce Orange Glacier 2.0.0
The reason I created this ROM is NOT TO COMPETE with anyone else, it is mainly for myself. I wanted a light weight ROM that's STABLE and FAST but I also wanted to try something slightly different.
I WON'T BE Updating this ROM unless something is Seriously WRONG with it...
(I WON'T BE taking FEATURE REQUESTS and such, most can be added by yourself from various mods found in the Theme and Apps sub forum )
So here it is: Orange Glacier ?!?!?!?
Why the name:
Because ClockworkMod Recovery (3.0.0.5+) for Gingerbread is colored Orange for EXT 4 partitions and since this ROM uses EXT 4 File System (FS) as its primary FS, I decided to name it this way.
So what is in this Orange Glacier?
1. Completely rebuilt from Stock Image
2. Uses exclusively EXT 4 FS
3. Moved all optional Apps to /data/app partition for easy uninstall (including most Google Apps)
4. Rooted, /system set to RW by default
5. Deodexed, Zip aligned all /system/apps and framework files using ROM kitchen from fellow XDA member.
6. Dalvik memory boosted from default 24MB to 36MB
7. Few CFS tweaks
I want to Thank the following:
TeamSilence for inspiring me to start it all,
Pack for the awesome battery mods,
dsixda for the easy to use ROM kitchen (highly recommended to anyone interested in cooking their own ROM, it CAN'T be easier than what he provided)

There's nothing special about this ROM.. It's mainly stock with the tweaks I mentioned in the OP...
stock is good for my battery i need battery more than fancy animations and all this gingerbread stuff
Sweet! Downloading now. Thanks Faux!
BTW, are there any known bugs/issues Faux?
Everything you have done is so amazing, so everything you do, we would pay special attention~~Tky Faux!!
nothing wrong basically itsstock with a few additions like battery mod and lil visuals here and there and speed up alot i dont feel no lag at all everything works idk bout ffc on qik cause my girl dont have but evrything is good to go
Well, this ROM gives me the best data speeds i have ever had. Unfortunately, every time that i reboot, it erases all of my screens. not sure why and OP says no support for this ROM. So i guess i will flash something else. It pains me to have to give up the data speeds.

He actually stated no support unless something serious is wrong. That seems pretty serious if happening to others as well. I would love to load a "de-bloatwared" stock image with good speed and full functionality. I can't wait to hear more feedback on this one.
RA
just when I thought I was done with froyo forever. thanks faux, i feel OBLIGATED to give this a run.
Welcome to the ROM side of life Faux.
awesome!
Very excited to see faux grow as a dev I support faux's work 100% and cant wait to see future projects. CHEERS ---Team
Do I need to set up the ext4 or is it handled in the install?
yeaaaaaa Faux.... this is what i will be running until ginger sense comes out (if it ever will) thanks! this will be my first rom flash! your rom popped my phones cherry lol..... i love this!

Anyone know the answer to this?

Oh happy day, thanks for the hard work. I can't wait to test this when I get home.
Link coming soon - how you downloading
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App
may I ask, why would this be any different from vr 10.3? they're both build from official 2.1 roms for the gsm hero. one is from europe, the other, asia. ok, same phone still.
Is it like the VR team has learned a few things from vr10 and are doing things differently in vr12 so this will be a better rom than vr10?
because vr10 is supposed to be the ultimate sense rom, no?
how can this be any better? I read the "Added" list above, sure there are some interesting things, but don't all of those things work in vr10.3? as well? maybe the cpu won't change speeds as often now, but in all honesty, will this work any differently than 10.3 did?
I finally left VR after vr10.x because I'm tired of the slowdowns in sense roms. villain superhero2 is much better to me, but oddly has some broken things (considering it's from the same rom I don't quite get it, but hell I'm not the one building the rom so I'm just happy you guys do all this hard work!
But what I really want is a sense rom where I can use whatever launcher I want (I love launcherpro right now) without having to move to a non-sense or almost-non-nense (IE: superhero) rom just to get the speed I need.
will this happen with VR12? or for pure speed is it still better to go with non-sense or partial-sense?
so many questions, sorry, rambling, but I'm confused about the big deal about euro hero 2.1 rom versus asian one. the languages were added, keyboard was changed, so the taiwan rom became the euro rom, no?
silly questions maybe? did I miss something LoL
cheers, thanks for indulging me. I'm su re I'm not the only one wondering this stuff.

I'm curious what you think compared to superhero 2.0 (which I'm on right now).
try using launcherpro under 11 beta and see how it does compared to launcherpro under superhero 2 for example.
Anyone who grabbed this recently, please redownload if your md5sum does not match:
Code:
8fbeb43c7d5cf970c1669b2e833c9fa0
As there was a last minute fix required right as we went live, lol typical.
To address some questions, especially from dkelley:
This is a -fast- ROM. Fresh boots finish in 5-6 minutes, instead of the 10-15 most previous builds took. From power on to usable UI is under two minutes. It is smooth, it is fast, it is slick.
We've already had alpha and beta testers comparing it to Superhero and that's with Sense. Imagine LauncherPro...
We didn't just go from 10.3 and everything prior to that with some fixes. This is built from the base HTC ROM+OTA updates with further optimisations and fixes applied ourselves.
Apart from the additional European language support, we would not release a ROM if we didn't feel it to be an improvement over what we already have available. That's what 11.9.x is here, for you to help us test, report back bugs, so that VR12 can be the best ROM we've ever released.

Also wondering the differences. +1
and....
Just go to the Application in the Setting,and clear the Sense"Default".
Then you can set LauncherPro(or what ever other Launcher)as your default launcher in any ROM.
just waiting for it to boot now.
will report when it's ready
Again please make sure your update zip matches the md5sum

as we had to make a last minute fix shortly after announcement.
came from super hero were everything worked including apps2sd..... wiped everything flashed but apps2sd not working automatic do you need to run the apps2sd.zip with this rom?

are you sure it's not working? it takes a long time to copy thigns over to sd. when I do a titanium backup of 100+ apps after flashign a new rom it fills up app space pretty fast but after 10-20 minutes it lowers space down again in phone memory (not speaknig of 11.9 here but apps2sd in general)

No you need to read earlier in the thread where I said to check md5sums. We had a problem with the release we initially went live with (missing /system/sd folder in dir structure) which broke apps2sd.
Please check the md5sum of your .zip, it should be 8fbeb43c7d5cf970c1669b2e833c9fa0
If it isn't, redownload and reflash.
Started off with about 145mb i think. now down to 119mb only installed about 6 things so far

NEBULAE ROOTED ROM BASED ON
OFFICIAL HTC WWE ÉCLAIR 2.1 (RUU)
***ONLY FOR GSM HERO***
Description:
This ROM is just another ROM like most others out there... Yes, I'm late in the game and it does not have much more than most ROMs but that was not the intention either. It's also not this ROM's intention to compete with any other ROMs. This is just something I did for myself (that's why you can find some unusual features) which I decided to share cause some people might like my simple and basic changes.
My work is based in two other ROMs, MoDaCo from Paul O'Brien and VillainROM from TeamVillain. I respect their work and thank them for their hard work. Some things were literally copied from their ROMs to mine, but I give credit where credit is due; if you find something that you think it was copied, that's because it probably was, but I'm not doing this to take credit for their work.
Features:
Based on Official HTC WWE Éclair 2.1 Update (RUU)
Rooted with Superuser 2.3.6.1 by ChainsDD
Missing locales from the official HTC update
en_PT, en_FI, fr_BE, fr_CH, pt_PT, nb_FI, da_FI, sv_FI
Fully deodexed for theming, hacking and extra space
Added Click'n'Drag to rearrange screens in Rosie/Sense
Long and comprehensive list of updated APNs
Added Dropbear support (SSH Server)
Added support for dalvik2cache script
Tweaked low memory management
Disabled boot animation sound
Included Linux tools:
BusyBox v1.15.3
SQLite v3.5.9
Bash v4.1
Nano v2.0.9
Included applications:
3D Gallery v1.1.30682 (Froyo port)
Removed applications:
HTC Footprints
HTC Stocks
Teeter
How to install:
Wipe everything:
Data
Dalvik-cache
Battery Stats
Rotate Settings
Flash ROM via recovery mode.
Flash Radio via recovery mode (the phone will reboot twice, do not interrupt the process at any moment).
Reboot the system once after the initial boot.
I suggest to always reinstall the radio after flashing any ROM, I've had GPS problems in the past for not doing so. Either flash the one below or the one that suits you/your network better.

It's somewhat impossible to thank every single person that contributes to the Android ROM development community. Kudos to everyone that does an amazing work and decides to share it with us.

Credits to TeamVillain for the huge APNs list, Bash, low memory management tweak and dalvik2cache script.

Patch for Nebulae ROM v0.1
NEBULAE ROM PATCH
***ONLY FOR GENERIC/DEODEX ROMS***
Description:
There were a couple of things I wanted to include in my ROM above but couldn't because of software limitations (more specifically, signatures). This patch allows that and you also have the choice to flash it or not.
This patch can probably be used on another ROMs (for the HTC Hero of course) if you like but I will not provide any support there. Just make sure the ROM is deodex or it will probably lead to unexpected results.
Features:
Removed shortcuts from Launcher:
Call History
Learn More
Phone
Search People
Settings
Setup Wizard
Removed vibration from the Calculator and Dialer apps
Fixed graphical glitches and unreadable colors in a tabbed interface
Example of original interface: image
Example of fixed interface: image
How to install:
Just flash the patch zip file like any other ROM.

Done... Although I don't expect to update this ROM much as I took my time to cook exactly as I wanted and testing it thoroughly. But mistakes happen all the time and you never know what more stupid bugs HTC left for us to fix.
Thank you all.
Great post and nice patch,cleans almost everything we really dont need or have in other places.
Too bad for me it doesnt have footprints as i use it a lot,but you cant satisfy everyone and as you said it was build for your needs.
Welcome aboard,hope to see more work from you.
You can easily push it back (along with the widget) to the phone if you want. Of course, only if you really find this ROM more useful than the one you're currently using, otherwise don't bother
Nazgulled,
Could you please upload the freshly new Google Maps 4.4 only? I'd like to update mine to 4.4 but it seems certain apps are missing from Market for me right now, including Shazam, LauncherPro and etc.
Please?
Nevermind, the direct download is here: http://db.tt/0Mtbc3

PH? Where did that one come from? I'm not sure that's newer though because PH comes before of PU and radios are normally versioned like that...
I'm not sure, I'm using 63.18.55.06PU_6.35.15.11 as that one came from the official update and haven't tested any others. The only way to tell is to keep using both for a long period of time and take some conclusions...
Found this now:

PH and PU are the same. Some Heros report the radio with an H and others with an U.

So, there's "2 new radios" right now and I have them both posted on the front page. The "PH" you're using is basically the one I posted for "orange users", which ends in 14.
Seriously, I don't know which one is better, i'm just using the first one and haven't really tested the other... If you do test both and find out the .14 is better than the .11, let me know
I have seen this .11 radio in Denmark. (use .14 myself, no probs)
On an officiel HTC update.

Think I found it on Villain's place as a new rom.
Think its working well, just don't know about battery because I'm always using the phone and charging it a lot.

I'm pleased to present my MoDaCo Custom ROM for the HTC Vision (this is the version based on the T-Mobile G2 ROM, without HTC Sense)! READ THIS WHOLE POST BEFORE YOU START! No, really, it contains everything you need to know.
Remember that if you use this ROM, you do so entirely at your own risk!!
About MoDaCo Custom ROMs
MoDaCo Custom ROMs are based on official ROMs - either shipping or leaked. A MCR release is designed to feel as far as possible like a stock ROM, with optimisations, tweaks and complimentary additions that enhance the user experience. The aim of a MCR is to be ultra reliable for use on an everyday device.
Requirements
In order to use this ROM on your device, you must have a custom recovery image installed (Clockwork Mod).
THIS ROM SHOULD RUN ON BOTH THE G2 AND THE DESIRE Z!
Features (these are the features for the currently posted prebake, please check the changelog for any pending changes that are in the kitchen)
Based on the 1.22.531.8 T-Mobile G2 ROM
Pre-rooted with su and Superuser Permissions by ChainsDD
Insecure boot image (ro.secure=0)
Optimised with the MCR build process, which means that the ROM will fit on a G2 without needing to remove any content!
All components updated to the latest versions
ROM is de-odexed
Please note that this is a r1 release, many more changes will be added now via the kitchen and periodically updated prebakes (as per normal MCR builds!)
Changelog
Please see 2 posts below this one for the changes in each release.
Installation
To install this ROM:
Download the zip file of your choice from the links below (or the online kitchen) and copy to your SD card
Restart your device in recovery mode
PERFORM A NANDROID BACKUP FROM THE MENU
Select the option to apply an update zip, and select the zip file you copied to your memory card
Upgrading
No wipe is explicitly required in order to use this ROM, however if you do encounter issues of any kind, it is recommended that you wipe your device and reproduce the issue before raising it here.
Downloads
This ROM is now available in the online kitchen! In addition to the kitchen, a prebaked download is available.
DOWNLOAD
Thanks
It's impossible to mention everyone who contributes to the Android community by name, but to everyone out there who does great work and shares it with us all - you have my gratitude and respect.
Future Updates - READ THIS!
By providing this ROM I am not implying in any way that future updates will follow. Due to limits on my time and the fact that I have a large number of devices for short periods of time, it isn't possible for me to continue providing ROM updates indefinitely. Please do not donate / sign up on the assumption that future releases will be available (I don't want you to be disappointed!).
And finally...
Details on how to donate should you wish to do so are in download topic at MoDaCo.
Enjoy!

Also, will this ROM help extend battery life? I am assuming it will with less eye-candy correct?
Thank you.

Its a stock ROM base nothing special nothing out of the ordinary. I am using it right now, it runs smoother than stock.

Ok, so what does NO SENSE mean?
So, is that a no on the screenshots?
Hi guys, i'm back from exams with a fresh and funky release
This is the latest version of Desire Z Sense FRG83D - 1.72 (very close to stock). Basically everything is working and I have been using it for a couple of days now.
Speed should be WAY better than on Desire HD ROMs, but still not as fast as stock Desire, comes close though. Costs are some additional trash menu options, like the one for the hardware keyboard and no arrow keys on the on-screen keyboard.
Focus in this ROM is on battery life, free space in NAND and to be close to stock.
I have squashfsed some directories, which saves a lot of space. (Desire Z ROMs are a bit lighter than HD ones, because of the less capable hardware, but still space hungry). Finally got it down to use only 200 MB + (6MB free in /system, because mkyaffs2image does strange stuff), which means you will have ~230MB of storage space available for your user files (if you use the partitioning layout I supplied with the DFT flasher and depending on if you chose to use the EXTROM area/last 24 MB of NAND space in MAGLDR - if you have a TMOUS LEO you will of course have more). This is more than enough in my opinion, no need for apps2sd so far, but i may add it in the future.
You will be able to "overwrite" the squashfsed stuff in lib, framework and app, because i just used deep symlinking there.
Things i have removed (i can remember..):
Maps (it's an outdated version anyway - download a new version from Market)
eReader stuff + eBooks (takes 50 MB or so - WTF, not worth it)
Some commercial stuff
Most of the included wallpapers
All skins except Slate
Notes:
This ROM comes as ODEX-ROM, because that again saves a lot of space, which would otherwise be taken twice (once in davlik cache and once in /system/app / system/framework)
My own kernel is included, based on the latest linux_on_wince_htc git. It has the SMARTASS and INTERACTIVE governor, as well as support for CIFS and EXT4 (for those who need it)
Of course this ROM comes with RMNET enabled. My version of the libhtc_ril_wrapper allows you to choose between PPP and RMNET by file. If /system/ppp exists (create it with touch /system/ppp) then PPP will be used, otherwise RMNET. RMNET is working quite well, so i would suggest you use that.
If you want notifications working, install Led me know from market. I had battery drainage issues with it, so i removed it.
Known issues:
Currently none
Version 0.1 -> Multiupload
Important:
To all those having trouble flashing the ROM with Cotulla's flasher
Please go to Cotulla's thread and ask for help there, this is not the place for this.
Instructions taken from Cotulla:
1. download MAGLDR
2. download NAND Android ROM
3. Install MAGLDR to your LEO (ROMUpdateUtility.exe)
4. Boot LEO and select in the menu "4. USB Flasher"
5. Run DAF.exe on your computer. Do all steps.
6. Wait while it's flashing.
7. After flashing device will make auto-reset.
8. It should boot directly to Android.
9. If any errors happens, please report in Cotulla's thread, which is here.

So finally i want to thank some people.. Without you that all would not have been possible.
* Cotulla: for his great MAGLDR and trusting me while testing it.
* mdeejay: for supplying me with userspace stuff.
* Markinus, LeTama, Rajko and all the other great devs from #htc-linux who contributed
* Everyone else I forgot
Tell me your suggestions for improvements on this ROM in this thread please, not in PMs
If you want to buy me a beer you can do so by clicking the link in my signature. I put a lot of time in all this.
And of course buy Cotulla a beer, without him we wouldn't have come so far in that little time!
Great I will download and test it for you.........
third...... downloading. great work will test sounds good!
Testers please let me know how the call volume is on this ROM.
Thanks!
welcome back! your DHD was a big hit to me. will flash soon
Hey gauner1986, any chance of a non-squashfs'd, non-stripped build for those of us with T-Mobile US devices? Or is it possible to de-squash it ourselves?
The only thing I don't like about the Z series is the rotating homescreens. When they rotate back to port, it's like reloading all the homescreens from fresh and it takes a while. There's always a lag for the screen elements to appear. That's one reason I don't use the imilka Vision ROM and have been waiting for an updated HD.
thanks gauner.. i will download it now ..but please i need u to think to build one on glacier it is more looking and stable
Great TNX,
I will download and try it....
EDIT: would like this rom to support DATA2EXT
good work gauner. Fan of your work!
Keep it up bud.
What's about
bluetooth mac, wake up lag and streaming video (SPB TV)????
I'm currently running gauners hd rom... what would be better with this build?
Any improvement?

Does this version have FM Radio? I didn't use it much in WinMobile, but I realize now that I miss it. Other than this, I will monitor the evolution of this ROM closely.
Hi Gauner, any chance of making your kernel work with an extended battery?

Install, update & FAQ.
How do I install this properly and clean from another MIUI or CM based rom?
THIS WILL WIPE ALL YOUR DATA!
1: make full backup using miui backup (skip if you're on CM)
2: reboot into recovery and make a nandroid backup
3: do a factory reset and format /system
4: flash the .zip and reboot, if you came from CM you can skip the next steps
5: restore your miui backup
6: reboot
How do I update an existing MIUI/CM based rom and keeping my apps/data?
1: make full backup using miui backup (skip if you're on CM)
2: reboot into recovery and make a nandroid backup
3: goto mounts/storage and format /cache /system and wipe the dalvik cache
4: flash the .zip and reboot, if you came from CM you can skip the next steps
5: restore your miui backup, some system settings may have change between releases, so this will not always for all settings
6: reboot
FAQ:
Q: The phone is lagging like mad after first boot/flash.
A: This is normal, let the phone settle for a few minutes.
Q: Why can't I run things as root anymore?
A: Since MIUI 1.9.9 you have to enable root permissions. Open up the "Superuser" app, press the menu soft key, click settings and enable root permissions.
Q: How do I add more input languages to the GB keyboard?
A: Download them from the market or directly from here.
Extended settings issues:
Q: How do I remove the Google logo from the notification bar?
A: Open up "MIUI Control" app and go to "Carrier options" and then disable "Display carrier logo".
Q: The wall paper scrolling doesn't work.
A: To fix; open the menu on the mainscreen and goto Launcher. Disable and enable wallpaper scrolling and it should work. This only has to be done once.
Q: I've set an alarm but there is no icon to show it is enabled.
A: To fix; open MIUI Control app, go to Clock options and disable and enable the alarm icon. This only has to be done once.
(more to come)
First of all thank you!
Are there other langugages included than english/chinese?
it looks pretty god damn cool
This looks perfect for me as I wanted to try MIUI but thought some other ROM was to bloated.
edit: Damn, my phone is at 2%.. Gonna have to charge it up before trying it. :/
At the moment it is just English, but I'm sure you can apply the 1.8.26 language packs to this as it is pretty much stock, with some crud removed.
The miuiandroid.com guys did add some tweaks for GPS, which is mostly for Europe. For other users, replace /system/etc/gps.conf and /system/etc/telocation.db with these files. Just open up the ROM zip in 7zip/winrar/winzip and over write the ones in there, then flash as normal.
the FM is not included, am i right?
thanks.

As far as i Know the FM stuff isn't ported from CM yet, I'm going to give it a go later. If it works I will make an update.zip to add it.
Nevermind the above, it seems to be able to break your internal speaker for good: http://www.galnetmiui.co.uk/content/forum/index.php?topic=1258.0
I'll wait for a proper fix and kernel and/or app.
Battery life...
looks good. "congratulations"!. I wanted to do something the same but you beat me to it. Anyway, how is the battery life with Neo 17? Can you some report without all the bloats in it for battery life? So far, 1.8.26 MIUI.US is 1 1/2 a day on moderate use with data and wifi on. And it sleeps like a baby.
Thanks in advance.
Firstly it looks very gud!
Secondly how is the battery life ? I don't go out much so i don't want amazing battery life just average!

AOSP refers to the Android Open Source Project. Google's phones are based on the AOSP. Any other phone manufacture has their own version of Android on their phones such as HTC (Sense), Samsung (Touchwiz), LG (variant of Touchwiz) etc...These are based on the AOSP but skinned to the manufacturer's needs..
If you wish to install MIUI, please ensure you have read and every installation step carefully. You need to 1st make sure that u hv gingerbread bootloaders. Since you are running Jetpack ROM, you should be on gb bootloaders...Once this is confirmed, simply put the MIUI ROM that you desire, go to recovery and flash the ROM....wait till it boots completely and voila...ur phone will never be the same again...
Once you are on MIUI, you'll never want to go back to samsung roms...as for the battery life...I get 48 hrs of medium usage - wifi (95% of the time and rest on 3.5g network), browsing, facebook, emailing (a lot), photos...
I'm sure you will have fun with MIUI...and there will be no turning back...If you wish to go back to Samsung based ROMs, just download any Speedmod kernel flashed via Odin and that's it...u r all set...
Hv fun..
I am on galaxian kernel right now so do I need to move to speedmod kernel? Also on more quick question main post says to replace some files but i don't have a computer right now so i can't but also I don't use GPS so can I install without changing that files ?

I installed it and believe me those who don't have this are missing out on Its pure awesomeness ! Too snappy to be true! Also the amount of customization you can do are unlimited! And i am loving these themes ! but i saw one thing that in battery use it says android os 89% and when I re-saw battery use it stated android os 19% so i think its showing wrong data!

So far so good, I installed this ROM last night and until now haven't encountered any problem yet. This ROM is just what I want, Galnet MIUI seems a bit bloated and unstable at the moment.
Thanks for the feedback! My battery life greatly depends on what I do. If i casually browse, make calls and maybe watch some you it lasts 1-2 days. Be sure to calibrate your battery though, its easy but time consuming but worth it.
I've been using this little mashup for ages based on the miuiandroid.com releases.
A little secret, a kitchen may be up soon. So you can brew your own MIUI, choose a kernel, gps tweaks EU/US/etc, pick a default theme, with MIUIthe possibilities are end;less. It is just sad the MIUI community seems fragmented now.
miuiandroid.com vs miui.us vs galnet vs. miui.com
Why can't we all get along and make an epic ROM we can all customize!
I want that, and I shall do my best to make it happen. We may have to follow the -stable branch and only add weekly updates/fixes when it concerns our phones.
Personally I like to run the latest stuff, but not at the price that I can't rely on this ROM to serve me when I simply need a phone

So, with that said, you will be updating this rom with weekly updates like miui without it getting bloated. This sounds good, as you have a fully working phone to use. Have you tried incorporating Neo 17 r8. Alot have reported it wurmth good battery life.
