[Q] Desire Z ROM - Have dump, need help - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'll have access to a Desire Z tomorrow and would like to know if a) Does anyone want a dump of the ROM, b) If someone want the ROM, how to get it off the device and c) Is it a needed ROM dump for our regular Desire devices?
I have made a dump of the device but would like some help to make sure no personal elements are left since the device was being used as a daily use phone. The dump is about 300MB big. All I did was put busybox into /data/local, chmod it to 755 and then tar'ed the /system directory. More pics coming up. The ROM dump will be posted once I can verify not personal info will get leaked out.
UPDATE!!

would absolutly love to see that online!

How many times do the mods have to tell people before they listen DONT POST QUESTIONS OF ANY KIND IN DEVELOPMENT, if you have a desire z rom dump by all means share it in the development section, but dont post the "how do i dump a rom" question there the mods will just move it

desire z rom. help this guy.
have a look to this post....someone have a desire z in hand and want a help to dump it.........!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=795385

What a week! The desire HD dump, the S-OFF for GSM and now the desire Z rom.
Cheers guys!

Moved to Q&A as not development. I have however left an 8hour redirect in the Development forum as a courtesy so that it gets maximum views for you.
I have also merged both threads as we only need 1 thread on this subject.

Just wanted to ask if you got answers to this. It seems the Z rom was what everybody was looking for to get the camera working with the Hd rom leak, this silence sounds strange to me. Anything behind the curtain?

Provided you only tar the system partition, personal data will not be included. System cannot be written to in normal use, so you should be safe.
Just be sure only system is there, and not /data. You could ask a trusted dev to check it if you want to be really safe.

Yeah only system is totally safe. Please post asap we love you!
Sent from the past.

@the op. Can you pm NeoPhyTe and give him a download link to check the rom for you? He's a dev working on the hd rom. I asked him to look in here via twitter.

No personal data is saved on a dump, only system files.
Dump is only /system, personal data is in /data.

Uhh...well, you'd need to unpack the system directory, place it all in an update zip, write an update script (or updater-script w/ update binary), sign it, and flash it. It will not work on any devices though without some (or a TON) of modification.
Good luck.

[Q] Beats boot on/off animation for Insert Coin 1.1.4

I'm searching for the files( better if a flashable zip) of the new boot animation with the big logo of beats audio that htc introduced...the one that is also used in the runnymedeAllinOne by seebastieen15
thanks in advance
Why don't you just download the rom you mentionend, extract the bootanimation.zip from it and copy it to your rom (either /system/media or /data/local)?

if I could I would have not only created this thread, but I even had this need...but instead of answer with stupid answer like yours (i like to call this kind of answer:"le nonrisposte") that are usefull only for the message count , i think is better if you enjoy other thread or at least find some other interests ,no one force you to answer.
My question is still the same...can someone provide the files (or a flashable zip) of the beats audio boot animation(on/off)..
Dont jump on Mat. That is a good answer. I would have suggested the same thing given that you haven't found them anywhere else and I don't know either.
Out of interest, why can't you download the ROM?
To be honest, if I did know, I wouldn't tell you now given that someone posted a helpful response and you basically treated him like ****.
You have a lot to learn about courtesy to people who try to help.

So you wont even tell us why you cant do the simplest thing that we suggest to get the files you want?
Man, why are you even asking then? If you think you can come here asking for help then give **** to people who help you or come back with snide remarks, then more fool you.
Well you know where the files are now so you can go and get them. I don't think this thread has any business continuing.
Word of wisdom... don't insult thos who take the time to try and help you...it tends to discourage more help.

[ROM] ICS with UNSUPPORTED HW HACK

This is a thread for all of those interested in the HW Hack that has been applied to the current WIP ICS for Desire ROM. This is to keep you out of the development thread for the ICS ROM and keep it clean. Any questions should be asked in here and if anyone wants to develop it, go ahead. As mentioned many times in the original thread, they are not supporting this, so don't ask them! Funnily enough, neither am I, I am sick of reading questions pertaining to something that is mentioned every page as UNSUPPORTED.
Flash in the order the files are listed.
Copy and pasted from ICS thread:
UNSUPPORTED 0.3.5 WITH HW HACK * (Stock HBOOT)
http://fyels.com/FCx
UNSUPPORTED 0.3.5 WITH HW HACK * (CM7R2 HBOOT)
http://www.mediafire.com/?v2c6s8w77s6cscc
Kernel is NEEDED (should be the same as last build but reuploaded because of some complaints
http://fyels.com/Frt
If you need to flash superuser:
http://fyels.com/M8t
What's working:
HW accelration! (with errors)
WiFi
SMS
GPS
Sound
Calling
Touchscreen
Stable 3G
Gmail sync + calendar working with gmail
SD read/write
All sensors
BT
Picaza sync
Fixed permissions (3rd party apps that needed maps now works)
Headphones
App2sd ( the stock included not app2sd+ or app2ext)
GoogleBackup
What's not working:
Camera
Forgot to add USB (charges + adb nothing more)
and probably alot more
Thanks to:
Sharky154 (DHD), drewis (N1), Chaosz-X, DJ_Jedi, Nikez, Raphael, SamStorer, Chichoko, Vaporizer, andreigherge, Tristan202, fused, rootSU for the original ICS ROM.
Why did you make another thread?
yeah, dont really know why you made a new thread.
anyways heres a cm7r2 version of 0.3.5 with the HW hack.

i am trying out this rom.. it is definitely smoother than the other rom. But i faced a problem, i am unable to download and install whatsapp from the market. Though i have enough space to install it on my internal memory, the message that is given was not enough memory. I think this is due to the 5mb of cache in the Cm7r2 hboot. Is there a way to symlink such that apps from the market are downloaded to the sdcard before installation?

Use terminal emulator and try this. (Alternatively use adb shell)
su
cd /cache/
rm -R download
mkdir /mnt/asec/marketcache
ln -s /mnt/asec/marketcache download
chown -h system.cache download
See if this works or not.

Because you started spamming the other thread with pointless questions. The need for clean thread where those actively participating in development could obtain information needed without roaming the endless posts about something which could hardly benefit the development warrants the need for a new thread. This should be done the first day they started with this project.

Where are you trying to flash from? I have no problems flashing the above from Clockword Recovery. You cannot flash gapps and kernel from running rom because you need superuser for this to work...

[DEV] Stock System Fully De-Odexed

Well I was going to create a ROM for the Nitro HD but my phone decided it wanted to hardware brick when I battery pulled, so that plans out the window for a while. While my ROM did work for half of the beta testers without issue, I can't say its safe enough for everyone to flash.
Anyways, this is NOT for flashing. This is for devs to create ROMs from. Its the /system of the Nitro HD on AT&T fully de-odexed. All I ask for anyone using this to please credit me.
This includes all stock applications and bloat, except Google Maps, and Polaris Office. You can pull Maps from Market or another ROM, its universal. I didn't try too hard to de-odex Polaris, theres better office apps anyways.

I don't have have a straightforward (simple) answer to that. Some of the frameworks have dependencies, you just need to make sure they are included. I spent time figuring out what dependencies were needed.

Make it close to the looks of Sense 4.0 !
this is only my advice. you can ignore it if you want.
developing a rom is different with cook a rom. a real rom developoer will never ask another dev to make a base rom for them. they will use a stock rom or use the source to create their own rom. I can understand that you have different high enthusiasm to develop a rom, but the path you've choose is not the right one if you want to be a great dev. I'm afraid you'll ashamed your name if you continue like this. if you don't know how to create a base rom or another stuff needed to build a rom, take your time to learn all those stuff. you can come back later if you're ready with your rom.
Ok, I cleaned up some of the comments here.
Please discontinue the name-calling and keep things civil.
Thank you.

well...I don't have any idea what happened here since I left this forum last morning.
@astrul: you can follow this step to get a stock base rom
1. create a backup of your stock rom via CWM.
2. go to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/<backup folder name>
3. copy system.rfs.tar inside your backup folder to your computer.
4. extract a custom rom. go to /system
5. delete everything inside except /system/bin and /system/bin
6. go to your system.rfs.tar, extract it.
7. go copy everything inside system folder to the extracted custom rom except /system/bin and /system/bin.
8. done
this step will create a stock rom with a2sd darktremor binary file inside it.
