I'm pleased to present a WIP (work in progress) pre-release of my next Android 2.1 based MoDaCo Custom ROM for the GSM HTC Hero! READ THIS WHOLE POST BEFORE YOU START! No, really, it contains everything you need to know.
This is a sneak preview of the base that i'll be using for the full MCR release... to give you all a chance to play, tweak, test, comment etc. etc.
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. You can read more about how to install a CRI on your device in this topic.
Features Included
•Based on the Chungwa 2.1 release
•Rooted with Superuser 2.1 by ChainsDD
•Built with the latest version of MCR build process which reduces the size and boosts the speed of the ROM
•STOCK KERNEL
•Rooted boot image with 'adb remount' permission and superuser APK
•busybox with Droid Explorer support
•terminfo and settings in boot.img to allow nano etc. use
•System dalvik-cache moved to /cache partition (cachedalvikcache)
•MCR version displayed in 'About' screen
•Added HTC_IME from Legend
•Added APN database to enable auto-configuration of Euro APNs
•Added Click-Drag rearrange to Rosie / Sense
•Added Voice Dialer
•Added Voice Search with optional standard android keyboard
•Updated Google Maps
•Optional dropbear (SSH server, username 'root, port 2222, password displayed in 'About' screen)
•Optional A2SD and A2SD+ (old style) via the online kitchen
•Optional baked in Wavesecure via the online kitchen (installed to system partition for maximum security)
•Optional WiFi Status indicator
•Removed Chinese content (will be available as an optional kitchen component)
•Completely de-odexed for optimal customisability
To install this ROM:
•Ensure you have a custom recovery image installed (see 'requirements' above)
•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 (power on with the home button pressed)
•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
Note: As this is a non-odexed build, the first boot will take a while. After you have completed your initial setup, I recommend rebooting to allow the cachedalvikcache script to free up space on /data.
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.

Will we be able to to replace the kernel with an OC one in the final version, like we can on other roms?
I'm having issues such as my device hangs/freezes during use. Then after awaile it reboots. Does anyone have a similar problem?
after using it for while i have actualy had the freeze reboot 9 x and the .com process 6 x lol but its in beta so it will be fixed

Had a couple of force closes after installing my apps like swype ,so would advise against installing this until paul releases the new version
Yep I spoke too soon,... done a reboot, then everything went crazy!
It's back up now - just setting up, so far so good!
Just tried the second release of the ROM and loving it!
Really quick and no FC's yet.
Is it multilanguage? Include simple Chinse？
I think no chinese
From the features:
Removed Chinese content (will be available as an optional kitchen component)
Everything seems okay, but music player keeps FCing, and having the widget on the dekstop raises an FC every few mins

I flashed your floyo 1.9 (i think) earlier today.. loved it, but the battery life sucked so i just flashed back to Froyd 1.5 (right now as i write this it finished booting) now this is so tempting to download, battery issues aside i loved the ROM and it was so damn fast!!!
I will see what comments it gets and decide
Good work on 1.9 though! (just fix battery life)
This is defo the dog's dangly bits! Completely painless - removed ADW, wiped dalvik, flashed ROM, replaced LauncherPro with ADW, rebooted.... and everything just worked. It feels just as responsive as v1.9 in the brief time I've had to use it - will give it a proper shakedown once I've had some sleep. Oh yeah, and the SE theme is pretty cool too.
Many thanks, Ele.
Thanks for another update!
I will test it for a day before giving feedback =D
wow
looks nice
but maybe the Floyo is a bit smoother, maybe
otherwise wow : )
Themes - Bootscreens
I loved Elelinux from the very first release.
But I like the stock theme and the old bootscreen.
Is there any possibility to add these options?
I replaced FroydVillain 1.5.0 with this rom and it runs definitely faster than Villain - great job!
One thing: as with almost every current froyo-image, there's no camera snap sound in this rom - can I somehow re-activate the sound when taking a picture? (camera_click.ogg is where it should be on the filesystem but isn't played when shooting)
This version is based on 1.9?
I've to perform a full wipe from the 1.9?

Hi!
I released a new ROM. The Idea behind it is a mix from HTC Hardwarelibs/Settings and APPs but without Sense. The Build is based on a new Desire HD Build (Android 2.2.1). I removed all HTC Widgeds, Sensestuff, etc. But I let some Apps, like Camera, Album, Musicplayer, Clock, EMail, Messanger, Keyboard, Twitter, etc. and you have the HTC System stuff, like the USB connection Menu. It's very nice and fast. As launcher is the Gingerbread Launcher installed.
Try it with e.g. Launcher Pro, Fancy Widget and Smooth Calender.
Working:
All
NotWorking:
- Customize in settings because it's sense connected. You can change background etc. with the long press on desktop.
FOR SMALL UPDATES LOOK IN POST 3
I added the app2sd+ mod. To enable it, you have to create a second partition on your sd card. But as first, BACKUP YOUR SD DATA !. The first one has to be the fat32 for normal sd use. Second ext2/3/4. 512 Mb for app data should be fine. I have 1.5 GB. If the partition exists, the system is using it for apps and other stuff. You have ca 200 MB Free on /data after this mod. Second good thing, if you install a update, you don't need to reinstall the apps, they are still there. If you don't create the second part, the data is like usually on nand. Automatic detection.
- You need MAGLDR 1.13
- NAND Build
- Prepared for CMR
- Kernel is almost stock from our git.
- Android 2.21
- You can create the partitions e.g. wirth gparted in linux (live cd boot for windows), or windows partition tools
- No OC or such stuff
- Interactive gouvernor
- completly cleaned initrd
- correct file rights
- rooted
- deodexed
- new busybox with many new system commands
- ENABLE: UseLast24NAND in magldr for sthis ROM!
It's made for daily use.
5mA standby
8mA with Bluetooth
For Overclocking use MDJs kernel, change the mtdblock0->mtdblock2 in batchfile!:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831585
Simple download, extract, connect phone, run batch.
LOOK HERE FOR SD VERSION:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11136523#post11136523
New Update Version 1.7 to 1.7.1: (you need 1.7 installed)
- Fixed GSensor Calibration
- Fixed win-key unlocks Lockscreen
- Fixed some market problems in CMR build.
Extract download zip in root of sd (update.zip have to be then there), boot in magldr/ad recovery, do a backup, apply update.zip.
!DON'T USE MDJs KERNEL TILL HE HAS A NEW UPDATED VERSION!
Download:
http://www.multiupload.com/YAVL709FOA
New Version 1.7: !MAGLDR 1.13 needed!
- Fixed browser problems
- Removed flash. Try this one for a stable browser: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=507808&d=1296746097
- Added Recovery partition, Full-DFT-Setup installs automaticly CMR 1.3 (is a recovery system for much android devices, you can do backups there, restors, install upates easy and much more, you can start it with ad recovery from magldr 1.13 after you flashed 1.7)
- Enable UseLast24NAND in magldr bevor you flash it (Go to MagLDR->Services->UseLast24NAND ->yes)
Download: BUILD INCL. CMR
http://www.multiupload.com/AGBQQY7V9B
For TMOUS users:
- Do NOT enable UseLast24NAND in magldr and replace the flash.cfg with this one
http://www.multiupload.com/2RMVQBQ2TB
Version 1.6:
- Fixed cache (market) for all
- Fixed power problems after first call (the 70mA)
- Fixed proximity/lightsensor power on/off
- Using now the FULL availible nand. You have to follow this steps:
-- After Backup, go to magldr
-- MagLDR-> Services -> UseLast24NAND
-- Activate it with yes (green), it means now we use full nand. It means we are using the last 24MB of NAND, which are default disabled.
Some people says there is the bootloader or such stuff. THIS IS NOT TRUE! This part of memory will be everytime if you flash something new like new magldr deleted, it's all. So you can only put there stuff, which is temporary there. So it's the best place for a cache partition! (it's a partitions where android stores temporary data). It's only disabled by default in MagLDR, because the roms have to prepared for it, like this.
!IMPORTANT: DEACTIVATE IT IF YOU USE OTHER ROM!
-- restart phone to magldr again
-- flash rom as usualy

IF you have a TMOUS 1GB device, don't enable 24M and use this config, replace the one in 1.6 build.

I don't know about this problem, so I did nothing for it, test if it works. If there is a fix for it then a can include it.
hey is htc messaging and mail included? those are the only part of Sense i use not the UI. i use launcher pro. and also is it deodexed?

3 x YES!
The main appeal of desire hd builds for me is the text-seletion facilities of the sense build, which makes typing so much better. And it's the main reason I'm using a gingerbread build right now. But HTC's text selection is still much better. I will give this build a try, but i'd rather have a ClockWorkMod build, which makes upgrading, backing up and restoring builds so much easier. Also, the abilty to overclock would be appreciated (not enabled by default).
Thanks for your effort.

cool thanks Markinus will give a try. i think you should make a more complete list of whats included and removed.
wow!! great idea!!
could you post the files to get social networking back please??
Has anyone else had a problem installing this rom? I installed everything fine, but after I go through the setup process it always fc the setup program, and it loops, so the only thing I can do is turn it off.
It's funny I just got it in my head to try another dhd rom, loaded the mdj lite rom and it worked fine but it doesn't have boot.img and doesn't work with clockwork recovery. I was really hoping to give this one a run.
Brilliant idea ! Now we don't have battery drains and have absolutely the best contact manager/dialer, text selection and other things BUT
- I have many FC in CLOCK, SETUP WIZARD, (sometimes) MAIL and I didn't check everything yet
- HTC Flashlight doesn't work
P.S. Please don't rip everything ... leave us things that don't slow down so much our phone and don't eat every byte of data space (I like integration with Facebook, sense home screen isn't needed for me)
Thank you very much, sir ! It's your second idea in absolutely oposite direction but again genius !
FC on Setup
Same issue here. FC during initial setup. Had to install another ROM. Will try again if there is a fix. I love DHD roms and especially without all the sense stuff in it
do i HAVE to partition my SD card to use this build?
I'm not worried about apps2sd and all that stuff....just want a small, quick smooth, bloat-free version of desire hd.
???
cheers

Thank you, I'll flash it asap
cool!.......
owh hell yeah thanks arnoslag!
first report I've received from the field, saj222 says "it boots!"
that's all I know so far...
Thanks for the port Arnoslag!
Yes it booted. After it settled down I ATTEMPTED to install Fly kernel 13, but the phone didn't boot up afterwards. I installed Las Venturax 0.6.2 and everything was fine again.
Some observations (in no particular order):
-camera seems to sort of work. I got a FC when trying to take a picture. Did not try video.
-during syncing of gmail account the phone was very slugglish but this was expected
-removed all the sense widgets except the flip clock and it seemed to help speed up the ROM's responsiveness... as did turning off animations. edit: I removed the flip clock too. edit#2: I used setcpu to crank up the min and max to 652MHz and it has helped the unlock ring and general usage. ring unlock is still a little laggy.
-wifi works fine, so does 3G data
-have had a couple of superuser FC's when going into setcpu
-in one instance I received a phone call and hung up after 4 seconds. The phone got really slow and then I got a sense FC which made sense restart.
-whatever version of market is on this ROM is slow
-there is no web browser included in this ROM
~~~~~~~~~~~
edit: was trying to download Gmaps from the market over wifi when market hung and gave me an FC for com.android.mms
u think is it possible to revert back to older Market? the newer Market seems slow on loading, probably heavy on graphics..
i've mirrored the rom on my server here.
the camera can take a pic, but have no zoom function. weather animations seems lacking its animation(like fog animation, cloudy animation). only rain animation is visible(well, my place won't snow, it's near equator).
I'm offering free hosting for your rom and you made a affiliate link for it ?

I humbly present to you the final chapter of the WildChild ROM trilogy.
WildChild 3 is here, and it's pretty cool, if I may say so myself.
Why is it cool?
Well, first of all, it's based on the native Sense 2.1 GUI and runs on Android "Gingerbread" 2.3.5. That means all the features of your phone are actually gonna work under this ROM (e.g. camera, proximity sensor, WiFi, etc.). I don't mean to slag CM7/CM9/ICS/JB, but when it comes to ROMs, I want one that fully exploits my phone, thank you very much.
That being said, this is very much a Sense-less ROM, so don't bother asking if your HTC Clock or <insert favourite Sense widget here> will work with WildChild 3. Chances are, it won't. Sense is stripped out in favour of speed and customization. I hope you find the trade-off as agreeable as I do. In typical WildChild fashion, this ROM is themed right down to the APK level and looks quite nice in both a black cocktail dress as well as ripped blue jeans. It blazes through benchmark tests; and is extremely stable - making WildChild 3 the perfect ROM for you and your loved ones. No animals were harmed (too badly) in the making of WildChild 3.
WildChild is dedicated to my two WildChilds: Joshua and Matteo.
HTC Sense 2.1-based, with the Sense launcher+widgets removed.
OS = Android "Gingerbread" 2.3.5.
Based on latest European RUU - 2.26.401.3.
Rooted, in case your mother asks.
Latest BusyBox (v1.19.4)
All APKs are ZipAligned. Your RAM says, "Thank you".
Einstein Frat's "Dust v9.0" overclocked kernel.
(Please see the note about overclocked kernels in my FAQ Post #3, below.)
Adreno200 libs integrated.
Lots of build.prop tweaks for speed and battery optimization.
Removed A2SD (ROM is solely Link2SD now).
Running the latest Nemus launcher (themed by me). This launcher has a task manager; the ability to organize your apps into folders; lock the layout of your home-screen icons; use any combination of [3|4|5] x [3|4|5] app drawer grid; and other wacky crap.)
Some stock HTC APKs replaced with newer/more-efficient/prettier versions.
Older, faster, Google Market (though you can easily flash the newer version).
Old SMS text messaging (See above. Your precious screen space isn't wasted by those annoying text bubbles!).
aCalendar replaces the stock HTC calendar. (supports repeating entries)
All installed APK's are at the latest version (at the time this post was published).
Wake the phone (from sleep mode) by using the volume rocker switch.
WildChild 3.0 is fully modular and highly configurable. Just check the Add-On's section (Post #2, below) regularly.
Stock keyboard & browser replaced (with TouchPal swype and Dolphin Mini, respectively).
Rock Solid. Lots of stability improvements were made from WC2 to WC3. Hopefully, you will encounter NO force-closes and NO reboots when installing apps. I mean, you shouldn't have encountered those at all with WC2, but now even Chuck Norris can't break WC3.
Features unique to WildChild:
Beautifully and painstakingly themed, down to the app-level (hope ya like blue!)
Modified SMS notification icon for task bar (the stock looked too much like the Email icon... not anymore!)
Funky volume up/down indicator sounds.
Font tweaks (the lockscreen clock is actually READABLE now).
Almost 1MB of notification sounds (one can never have enough!)
Better boot-up and boot-down animations than WildChild 2 (according to my wife, and she says she's never wrong... about anything.)
Unique lockscreen created by Tigger31337: a ring of (Wild)fire against the setting moon.
Well, I think this is unique to WildChild 3, 'cuz the actual read_ahead_kb buffer size is actually hard-coded to a value other than 128kB! (I haven't seen this done properly on ANY other ROM so far.) Lots of folks say to set it to 1 or 2 MB. I found 512kB worked nicely for our phone (and poorly at 1MB), but I'm all ears if you want this changed.
Tested (and works flawlessly!) on Wildfire S GSM (Marvel a510e). Might work on CDMA; might not. Who the hell knows.
Just like his lazy, out-of-work brother, WildChild 2, WildChild 3 comes in 2 flavours: Odex and DeOdex.
I used to make a LITE and FULL version of WC2, but I'm not sure if I can deal with people asking me why Google accounts aren't synching with their LITE versions anymore, so I think I'll eliminate that hassle (or at least postpone it sufficiently).
For now, I'll stick with two flavours: Odex vs. DeOdex.
XDA Forums does a fantastic job of explaining the difference, so I won't do that here.
If in doubt (or extremely lazy and want to avoid reading) go for the Odex and enjoy the extra storage space.
WC3 DeOdex ROM = 41.11 MB /data space available (easily more, once you start deleting apps) and 92 MB free on /system.
WC3 Odex ROM = 88.11 MB /data space available and 67 MB free on /system.
WildChild 3 comes with the following applications already built-in:
aCalendar
Adobe Flash Player v11
CalendarSnooze
CPUSpy
Dolphin Mini Browser
DoodleDroid
Flashlight
GPSStatus
Link2SD
Nemus Launcher
NoFrills CPU
Notepad
ROM Toolbox Lite
Root Browser
Scan (QR/Barcode)
ScreenFilter
Startup Manager
SuperSU
Terminal Emulator
Titanium Backup Root
TouchPal keyboard
WiFi Analyzer (and libs)
YouTube
PRE-INSTALLATION TASKS:
Before flashing WildChild 3.0, BACKUP, BACKUP, BACKUP.
There. I've said it three times, now. Any data you lose is, therefore, your own problem.
That being said, I've exhaustively tested the install of WildChild 3 under various test scenarios over the course of weeks -- haven't had a single glitch yet. You're in good hands.
Once you've got your stuff backed up, here's a tip to make your life easier. Assuming you are currently running a previous version of WildChild, hop into your Nemus launcher and take a BACKUP of your Homescreen setup. (Launcher Settings --> Other --> Backup & Restore). If you do this, you can then RESTORE your launcher settings after flashing WC3 and save time that could be better spent surfing for pornography.
INSTALLATION TASKS:
(You really should know these steps by now, but for tradition's sake...)
Prepare and partition your SDCard. (Folks seem to enjoy a FAT32; a 1 or 2 GB ext4 (I use ext2); and a 512MB Linux Swap... in that order. And all partitions are Primary).
Copy the WildChild ROM .zip file to your SDCard.
Reboot into Recovery mode.
Wipe data/factory reset. (Do this twice, especially if on CWM)
Wipe Dalvik cache. (Twice, as above)
"Install zip from SDCard".
(You might have to toggle Signature Verification until it is Disabled)
Read the ROM's splash screen and wait about 1 minute while it pollutes your phone.
Reboot phone; wait another 2-3 mins while WC3 does its thang.
When the lockscreen FiRE RiNG appears, yank it (uhmm, the ring, that is) and start using your phone!
Enjoy! ...and throw a "Thanks" my way! ...a donation of buck or two for the WildChild Fund wouldn't hurt, either. (Please note: There is no such thing as the WildChild Fund. I will probably spend the cash on beer.)
So, you've bought into all the hype and finally threw WildChild 3 on your phone. Now what?
Well, for starters...
If you took a Nemus backup prior to flashing WC 3.0, then now's a good time to restore it. It'll save you from recreating all your folders, shortcuts, and launcher preferences again.
Launch SuperSU and update the binary (one-time task)
Pick 'n Choose your apps! If there's something on this phone you don't like, it's easy to remove it. For USER apps, simply remove the app using your launcher. For SYSTEM apps, you can remove them using the built-in Link2SD app. If you're feeling especially adventurous, you may even try converting USER apps to SYSTEM apps (and vice versa), also by using Link2SD.
Play with the Startup Manager. ROMs are not customized to YOUR personal usage habits, and WildChild is no exception. So spend a couple of minutes in the Startup Manager app and disable things you don't need from starting up automatically. (e.g. For me, it's ROM Toolbox, Titanium Backup, Market, Maps, and FM Radio.) This does not mean that you are deleting or disabling these apps... it just means you're preventing their receiver from launching automatically after bootup. In essence, you'll save RAM by disabling 'em.
Move your apps with Link2SD! For the uninitiated, I highly recommend creating an extra partition on your SD card (say 1 or 2 GB) and then LINKING your large (or rarely used) apps over to the SD card. There are plenty of good articles written about this on XDA forums, so do yourself a favour and start using Link2SD regularly. (Although, I do not recommend using their "Auto Link" function, as this eats up about 10 MB RAM.)
Some tweaks to help with performance/battery-life:
OS Settings: Sounds: disable vibration feedback.
OS Settings: Display: Disable Auto-rotate and then Disable All Animations (I disabled the CRT animation for WC3, anyway)
OS Settings: Connect to PC: Disable "Ask me"
OS Settings: Power: Disable Power Saver and Disable Fast Boot
OS Settings: Language & Keyboard: (TouchPal) Disable Vibration on Type
OS Settings: About Phone: Software Updates: Disable the Scheduled Check
CPU Settings: Max = 768Mhz, Min = 122Mhz. Gov = Scary. You know I'm a fan of Scary. Nobody else even mentioned this governor for WFS until WildChild 2.0. Scary gives you a decent balance between performance and battery life (with priority on the latter). Set the scheduler to sio and you can't go wrong.
Launcher Settings: Tweak these as you see fit. Most changes here are cosmetic, but some are performance-related. Take the time go go through each setting; you'll get more out of your phone.
p.s. You should know, Nemus laucher has a left/right-swipeable dock (the bottom "bar" where app shortcuts are held). That same dock is also up/down swipeable (for Lock settings). Just sayin'.

The Add-Ons got too big to share Post #1.
You can find them, sitting all smugly, in Post #2, below.
Also, be sure to check out the News & FAQ, regularly, over at Post #3.
Too much pressure to get this ROM uploaded... so screenshots have been neglected for now.
Check back soon. All I can offer is that, "it's pretty fuqn similar to WildChild 2.0, except a lot sexier". Enjoy.
[UPDATE]
KelvinWild has graciously supplied some in Post #19.
Thank you, sir.
The WildChild series of ROMs is known around the galaxy for being very modular. Basically, I try to make it easy for you to rip sh1t out and put stuff in. What kind of stuff? I dunno... mostly it's the stuff you guys request, and sometimes it's stuff I think would be neat.
Each of these Add-Ons comes in a flashable zip format. You pick one from the list below, throw it on your SD card, and then install it the way you would a custom ROM (i.e. choose the "install zip from SD card" option, if you were using CWM). Once it's done, you reboot. Typically, you don't install Add-Ons back-to-back (unless specified otherwise). You should reboot in between each Add-On you flash.
Check here often; latest Add-Ons are placed at the bottom of the list.
###### AVAILABLE ADD-ONS FOR WILDCHILD 3: ######
stock HTC keyboard
stock browser, WildChild themed
Link2SD v2.1.2. This is straight from the Market and is a critical flash to keep on your SD card. In case your current Link2SD config goes belly-up, you can always re-install and re-link your apps (hopefully) using this.
stock Lockscreen
stock Google Market (aka Play Store)
stock Calendar
stock ("bubble-style") MMS text-messaging
stock Gmail
Rosie (Sense) Launcher - WildChild themed. Install this to customize your lockscreen shortcuts.
Rosie scrape. Remove the Sense Launcher (above) and revert to Nemus.
KERNELS:
I take no credit for these kernels, but they are all fantastic (in my opinion) and created by the same author: Einstein Frat.
Give 'em a whirl and see where you end up.
In chronological order of kernel build date, they are:
Dust 8.8
Dust 8.9 (default kern. for WildChild 1.1)
Dust 9 (default kern. for WildChild 3.3)
Cake 0.9 (default kern. for WildChild 1.5)
Cake 1.4 (default kern. for WildChild 2.0)
DCPLX1 v1.1 (default kern. for WildChild 3.0)
The following stock kernel is provided by baluuu (Post #68). It runs at a max. of 600 Mhz, uses only userspace/ondemand/performance governors, and noop/deadline/cfq schedulers.
For anyone still experiencing installation issues with overclocked ROMs, this is the kernel for you. Flash your ROM and then flash this kernel immediately afterwards (no reboot after flashing ROM, but reboot after flashing stock kernel.)
stock HTC kernel (April 17, 2011) 600 Mhz Max.
###### ADD-ONS FROM PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF WILDCHILD ######
(Confirmed working on WildChild v3)
BeRo File Manager. (All WildChild ROMs come with a file manager built-in, but some lesser ROMs do not. Keep this handy on your SD card and you can always flash it into your crappy ROM to access your files/apps on SD.)
Boot-up Animations. (Click here to preview available colours.)
###### Coming soon... ######
NEW lockscreen by Tigger31337 ("slider"-style, not ring-style)
... I dunno, you tell me!

[Aug 24] Critical Updates.
Nemus Launcher has an update which fixes a "badge crash" on the version I supplied with WildChild 3 (which was the latest and greatest at the time of release).
Also, SuperSU has an update as well.
Please apply BOTH the SuperSU and Nemus updates as they are critical and may address any issues you're having with the ROM. I'll try to roll both of them up into a flashable zip. Check Post #2.
[Aug 21] WildChild 3.3 uploaded. This version supersedes all previous versions. If you come to me for support or with questions/comments/requests, I will assume it is in regards to this version.
WC 3.3 addresses the (unfortunate) owners of WFS hardware with "gimpy" CPU chips. WC33 runs the Dust 9.0 kernel at values that are "gentler" on your weak CPU. Those who have problems with overclocked ROMs in general (mine being no exception) should have better luck with this setup. If you're still struggling, even after WC 3.3, then please check the Add-Ons Section for a flashable stock kernel that defaults to 245 Mhz.
[Aug 21] Author Request. Is there anyone here who's good at graphic arts (i.e. not me) that can whip together a really quick icon/logo thingy for WildChild 3? The one in my signature (WC2) is looking a little stale. Hopefully it's something that incorporates some graphic element of the WC3 ROM (i.e. the fire ring, wallpaper colours, etc.)
I'd be forever in your debt, and you'd get all kinds of mad props and recognition from me over in Post #1. Thanks, in advance!
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. "Will my <insert Sense app/widget here> work with your ROM?"
A. Probably not. Please read the original Post #1 and you'll see that Sense has been purposefully stripped from this ROM. You're free to put it back, although I suspect that if it's a Sense ROM you're after, you'd probably enjoy my WildChild Sense ROM better. Ask for it, by name, at finer retailers near you. (Or click here.)
Q. "Weird sh1t is happening with my phone. It locks/freezes/recites bad Vogon poetry at 3:00am. What's wrong?!"
A. I'm going to give my standard answers to 99% of the problems I receive. Here they are, in no particular order:
1) Please confirm you are using a GSM (a510e) phone. CDMA is cool, but not officially supported by this ROM.
2) Please confirm you aren't trying to boot straight into an 820 Mhz + performance governor scenario, and then complaining of all kinds of reboots and force closes (especially if this happened to you with other ROMs in the past). If this is your problem, chances are you are the proud owner of a "gimpy CPU" Wildfire. Find a better, slower kernel (see my Add-Ons Post #2) and then scale upwards from there.
I love getting email and reply to it all. (Yes, all... eventually). If you promise me that you've ruled out #1 and #2, above, then I promise you help to the best of my ability.
love you bro.. ...am waiting

You have done it again ! Wow and again providing options to people Well I could say, you Rock !
Well screw this ****, Im downloading it.
I was always a ICS fan but I will give it a go.
Hello , I`m excited about this new ROM of yours, this will be the first tima I`m using WC at all. Just wanderring where is the ODEX download link . Thanks in advance for the job you`ve done. If i had a debit card I`d buy you a beer
Geting stuck on splash screen did you test it ? From my previous experience with DcplX kernel doesnt realy agree with the newes RUU. Dust seems much more stable overall. Or maybe just freq too high for my poor wfs whats the default clock ?
Edit: Nvm just flashed dust So far so smooth.
Stuck on HTC screen :'(
Update: Well after 2-3 trys it booted up. First boot got stuck at htc screen for about 3-4 minutes.
Me too, wiped data 3 times, wiped dalcik 2 times.
Installed. It doesnt stop rebooting
Well I got a question.
I need friendstream. I pulled out apk from disciple 1's 1.1 ROM and pushed it. Its opening but it says no account logged in. I can't find add account setting for friendstream in Accounts and sync. Am i missing any apk? Please let me know ASAP.
Well, that's too bad some of you are unable to run the DCPL kernel. It's really quite stable (and has the Conservative governor, which I'm actually growing quite fond of).
For the sake of compatibility, I have removed WC3.0 and will re-pack it with the Cake v0.9 kernel (I'll offer the DCPL kernel as an Add-On, for those folks whose hardware can actually support it!)
Please check Post #1 again for the WC 3.1 download link.

Thank you sir.. right now i'm downloading deodex version... I don't know but the previously version, sometimes makes my ws shut off itself and forces me to take off the battery and put it again to make it back to normal.... Hope it will never happen again with this rom. Thank you Tiger!
EDIT: Wifi is not working... or "Wifi Error"
Anyways I solved that friendstream problem.
BTW Trigger, how do I change lockscreen shortcuts? Whenever I open personalise menu it just goes to home screen, As far i know we need original sense launcher to change it right?
So if i flash original rosie from WC2 will it work?
Help me please.
screenshoots
Wifis not working for me
mod: now I restarted (got scared with that shotdown logo xD ), and the phone frozed at the red/white ring animation
mod2: now it booted, could be the problem that no frills cpu max was 787, my phone frozes above 768.
..wifi still not working, cant even switch on, it says: problem
