I just did this earlier today with Desire Z, lol, this is not my day.
Where did The New Guy thread go with the newest version 6?
I told my buddy at work today I'd update his phone from version 5 to version 6...and now it's gone.
Any help?
MODS - What's the deal?
I'm wondering the same.
EDIT: You can download 6 from ROM Manager. Download ROM -> Androidz.

Ah. Thanks! I overlooked that.
I don't know, but I can't even pm the rom author. maybe he's been removed or something...
WTF??? MODS?!
this was my rom of choice, where the f*** did it go?
All I know is I flashed the camera remap for Rosie And it caused my phone to not load the htc system twice. It is in rom manager.
sent from my Incredible using Tapa Talk
yeah i PM him about the launcher dock and hulu and he responded back then not even 15 min later the thread was gone...????
Says that his account is currently disabled.
He's built up a fairly solid reputation of taking other devs' work and claiming it as his own over on the eris forums. He had made a number of new accounts to avoid the ban, and I guess eventually he just moved to the Incredible with a new username.
But whenever he was banned from xda he would keep posting updates to his roms over on androidforums.com, maybe you guys can find him there.
Hmmm...yeah I always wondered why the ROM was under Andrizoid's name, but under some random guy's name here.
Also, pretty sure the thread is missing from AndroidForums.com also.

So, jdkor and new guy were twins? There is way too much intrigue on these forums for a 42 yr old guy like trying to make his toys better. Guess, I will stick to the trusted few going forward - ID, Lou, RMK, NIX, ifhtp.
By the way while we are on the topic, whats the story with "Blackdroid"? I use his ultimate droid ROM [see my sig] (pretty spectacular AOSP ROM to be honest). Apparently he went tellytubby byebye from xda too for something? What did he do?

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.

Its in the Market as SetCPU for Root Users; I advise against profiles (they destroy the battery), just use the ondemand gov instead

BaconBits is in the dev forum here as well: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=834565. I believe people have also had success running Pershoot's kernel (also in the dev forum---this one is updated constantly). Not sure why your searches didn't turn up anything though. Someone asks about how to overclock the stock ROM every couple of weeks...
As far as SetCPU goes, the dev offers it free for XDA users (just search for it to find the main thread with the downloads). If you want to pay for the donation version on the Market, even better though. You can also CPU Tuner. I think there are a few others as well.
I was using the stock odexed rom (one in the development section, I believe its the same as the stock rom with a few tweaks) with Pershoots latest kernel . Talk about fast, performance wise that was the fastest rom I ever used (backed up by benchmarks). CPU performance was greater than CM7 and GPU performance was on par with CM7. I would contact Pershoot first and find out before using his kernel on a stock rom though, some have had boot loops while other have had success.

Oh ok. I just saw you mentioned that you had already tried everything in the dev section but nothing worked (which seemed odd since BaconBits was in the dev forum here and should have been exactly the same one as on the CM forum). And I'm not exactly sure how you are searching but the first link when I searched for SetCPU worked fine for me. What SetCPU forum you are talking about?

Are you sure you are actually searching the forum as opposed to the main XDA page? You need to search the forums if you actually want to find relevant threads as opposed to news articles (there is a search box at the top of the page). Each sub-forum and thread also has a search button (for instance, you can search only within the G2 forums for stuff).

That unreadable file is actually an APK. APK's are the application files used by Android. If you transfer the file to your phone, you can use a file manager to "open" the file, starting the install process. You will also need to enable "Unknown sources" in your Settings (under Applications) if you haven't already. FYI, this is sometimes referred to as the side-loading of apps (because you are doing it outside of the official Market).
EDIT: Nevermind, saw you got it.

Thank you so much!
The Doubleshot is my favorite Sense ROM. I just love the launch bar. Unfortunately, it doesn't run so smoothly, it quickly became obvious to me that it was intended for a phone with more RAM. If that wasn't the case I would probably be running it still.
Also, the kernel is not compatible with the swap script so that won't help.
There is a thread in the DHD forums with some visual mods but I believe the download links are dead.

This *was* my favorite ROM as well, but the lag just got to bad. Would be nice for an update that would allow swap. the supercharger script also didn't help with me as well.

Yeah, the rom is not lag free but i didn't find it exceptional laggy. I've tried manualy add the ultra-smooth rosie to this one which reduced the lag but some times when you go to the landscape mode you can't press any shortcuts or widgets... An update with fixed ultra-smooth rosie would make the rom perfect i think.
As for the theme, the download link is dead as said. Does anybody got a copy that? The maker of that one has lost the files for it and therefore he can't reupload it
Hey all, this is one of my first post here, but I have been a user since the original Moto Droid. Before asking any questions I wanted to thank EVERYONE here who has helped me & the Mods for keeping this place so neat and clean!
Does anyone know of a way to get the pure android experience on this phone? (i.e. sms, dialer, icons, lock screen, etc) Like what comes on the new Galaxy Nexus!?
Please forgive me if this has been addressed already, I couldn't find anything with any solutions or definite answers.
