Does the latest Bonsai work on RFS or do I have it use ext4? If latter, does it at least have journaling enabled? The thread or the web page was of no use...
I tried Bonsai v4.0 and didn't like it, the weird edited launcher and no clock in status bar drove me insane. I believe Bonsai is EXT4 ONLY rom, so you'll need to convert to ext4 to use it.

Ah, I was doing my setup on Bonsai and I got frustrated with the lack of stats bar clock and just reverted back to Syndicate. I'm about to go to work now, so no time for anymore modifications until I get home...!

I was frustrated too.. and to be fair I believe the official stock ec05 has it removed as well... but nothing a simple flash can't fix..

I got the click back on Bonsai. No problems... I'm just afraid that it will crap out in a few days because of no journaling and phone failed to wake up from sleep once so far.

You can add the clock back in on bonsai and it doesn't affect anything.

I think that is due to *some* phones not awaking to the 100 Mhz under clock of the kernel. Try 200 minimum (which is stock). This is XDA so you have to stay on top of many different threads to make sure you understand what is going on.

It can be very difficult, it seems, to keep up. Is there a better place for more centrally compiled info?
I've managed to wade my way thru most stuff, but at the expense of dozens of hours and I still run into important pieces of info like this at random, which makes me wonder how's a guy to find the info that one should know.

Hello, yesterday I decided to finally give cyanogenmod a try and went through and installed it successfully. HOWEVER! I'm not quite happy with it and simply want to return back to stock.
Heres the thing...I kinda didnt do a Nandbackup...I know...
How in the world do I get back to factory settings without me losing the ability to root again and be able to receive OTA updates?
Help is highly appreciated. Thanks.
go get yourself a stock but rooted rom out of the dev section and flash that, presumably the same place you got CM.....
I got CM from Rom Manager, where is the dev section to get the rooted stock rom?? Sorry I'm not that familiar with this.

There were a couple things I did not like:
1) the dialer it has a nice layout but you cant search for a contact by typing the letters in their name, you actually have to go through the contacts list
2) ADW Launcher - Nothing againts it, it's nice and all but I'm personally used to Launcher pro. You can change it and disable ADW so it's not too big of a deal
3) The biggest problem I had was the mic, for some reason I was not able to be heard when I made a phone call...I could hear the person but they couldnt hear me I had to restart the phone.
4) Battery killer - Hate to say it but it was murdering my battery..well kind of. I have the Seido 3500 mah but I was at 20% at around 12 hours. Im usually at 40 - 50 range.
Thats about it. some of them arent big deals but the dialer and the mic problem just dont do it for me...I was really looking forward to it, but i guess i'll have to wait until it's a little bit more stable. There are some things I did like, it's definitely much snappier it feels much smoother and with set cpu i got my cpu to 1.3Ghz (awesome!) and I loved the music controls on the lockscreen and the swipe to ignore notification.
Dont get me wrong, it's amazing work and my hat comes off to everyone who has worked extremely hard to make cyanogen (or any rom) to happen. They are definitely talented individuals, but this one just doesnt fit my needs.
Thanks for the information btw, I will go ahead and try it!

Just a little heads up before flashing to another rom. All of those problems you are facing can be fixed by simply installing a few apps and a little tweaking.
1. My solution to the dialer problem: dialer one, this app is more like senses dialer, you can search for a contact my name or number... you will like it.
2. If you are looking for a launcher such as Rosie, then your sol with out a sense rom.. but if ADW launcher was all you didn't like (I personally dislike ADW also) then try out launcher pro.
3./4. These can all be problem from a bad install.. I would flash the rom again. For your battery search for cyanogenmod battery calibration.
Hope this helps!

That's very odd- try resetting your battery statistics, as people generally get about 40-50% better battery life on cyanogen than on sense- on average i get about 28 hours of battery life under normal use.

That will put you back to total stock, however, that pc36img.zip might be out of date. The OP is still in that thread, and very helpful though.

Thanks I'm going to give cyanogen another try, I wont delete it just yet. Question though..Is there any way to disable ADW Launcher. I read that you could use root explorer and rename or delete it, but when I try it says I dont have permission (something like that).
Another question is..Is there any way to put widgets on the cyanogen lockscreen? I like using Widgetlocker but I freaking love the music controls on the cyanogen lockscreen. Is it possible to have the best of both worlds?

Thats nifty but I still like the way the stock dialer does it, it's much simpler.
I installed the no carrier IQ SyndicateROM Frozen 1.0 this week, and love it. It smokes, gives me more speed and finally I have a decent keyboard. I wasn't especially fond of the transparent pull down, so I flashed the stock theme add-on.
Well, that's all fine and good, works as promised, but I realize now that I would rather have the numerical battery indicator as well as some other minor mods that were in the original theme. Is there a simple way to return to the default theme for this ROM?
Cohiba asked a similar question in the monster thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=976194 ) but never got an answer. Or, at least, didn't get answered in the first 124 pages, and I did in fact read them all.
So, any advice? I guess I could reflash the ROM, then the kernel update, but that seems crazy compared to the 2 second theme flash that got me to where I am. I just want to undo the stock theme and go back to the default theme.
If you didn't backup prior to flashing theme you will have to wipe and flash rom again.

Try Emotionless Beast. Trust me, you won't regret it!
The battery icon, as well as all of the other icons are much cooler than stock or even the theme that comes with Frozen. Then you can use whatever launcher and wallpaper you want to get it where you like. MysteryEmotionz did a great job with this theme and it truly is optimized to work well with Frozen.
OK, I went ahead and grabbed Emotionless Beast (both files, to get the SFR update) and I'm running with it. It looks good, although I wish there were some simple way to make my gmail new messages stand out more. In the default app, they were bold and others were regular font, but now I have a hard time telling the difference. Thanks for the advice--I'll play with this all day, I'm afraid.
I am running this theme and love it.

usually you can just flash the rom again without a wipe and it will replace those files. Havent done it with this rom yet though so do a back up and maybe just clear cache and nothing else.

Emotionless Beast is AMAZING on Frozen. There are also plenty of transparent/black mods in this form to really round it out nicely.
after trying every flavor out there, ive decided to stick with di18.
i am picky, i know, but the stock rom (rooted) is 100% what I like. there is not one thing that doesnt work the way i like it to.... so.... on that note
ive removed all the sprint apps, update.zip and its rooted but i cannot get the darn thing to stop asking me about the update...

I believe you could just rename or remove the systemUpdater.apk and it would stop checking for updates
.. I think thats the correct name but if its called something else please correct me
Edit: I would just use Titanium and "Freeze" the system updater at first. but i think this is removed on custom roms anyway so shouldn't be a problem to remove it

well, im a big fan of the syndicate rom but it carries over what i dont like
the "google" search is slower than the stock search
the browser seems slower
messages in the "call log" annoy me
cant search in phone app by last name
keyboard seems to "miss" letters
except syndicate, dk and ce based roms just seem slower
if i could build roms i would and remove the carrier iq and add the extra functions when you hold down the power button.
btw, im a guy.... i need to change my sn lol
so, im going to just remove system updater, hope that works
I'm with you,I liked DK28 the best out of all 3 FROYO releases,and I actually had DI18 on all day today just to see what it was like again; And I forgot how damn smooth it was compared to this hacked-up **** we have right now,I know EC05 is young (and I plan on building EC05 still) but I'm making a DK28/EB13/EC05 ROM with no carrier IQ,and most if not all EC05 mods should work,I start on that as soon as I get off work.

What you listed doesn't make sense...
the "google" search is slower than the stock search It is the stock search.
the browser seems slower Fast and checkerboardless in SRF.
messages in the "call log" annoy me Not present in SRF.
cant search in phone app by last name Fair.
keyboard seems to "miss" letters Better than DI18 and user-adjustable in SRF.
I don't think you need to defend SRF kOnane... I think my problem is UV kernels,but I still can't narrow down the static/pops. But this is what I've seen sofar,when fast scrolling (scroll fast,then remove finger fast) no pops,but if I scroll with my finger on the touch screen the entire time,it pops like crazy ; Which makes me think its the touch screen driver,or interference on the bus when using the touch screen...

So I am running MIUI 1.5.13 and I am having nothing but problems. It worked well enough for a bit but now I am getting force closes every thirty seconds. To the point where it is unusable. On top of this, streaming media does not want to work correctly. IE, google listen is playing like ****, as is audio galaxy. Has anyone else had this problem? I have reflashed three times. Twice after doing a format with caulkins format all. Any insight that anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Did you do a full wipe using amon 2.3 works great for such. What kernel you using? Stick to stock one that it came with see how it does . Then if u want try something different flash a kernel if everything is stable.
Redownload then reflash, you may have a bad download. Don't just use the format all, wipe too. I wipe everything except the SD card and battery stats. Or, if you're going to redownload anyway, download Stiff's version of 1.5.20. I just downloaded it last night, I'll be flashing it as soon as I put the final touches on my theme.
Steaming works fine for me, by the way.

I will try the above and see if that works. I am using the stock kernel currently. Strangely it seems to have stopped. I was running beautiful widgets and I just took it off (just the widget) and changed the vm heap to 40 restarted then changed it back to 64 restarted again and it is working. I was using 1.5.20 for a hot minute but I had a problem with a lot of it being in Mandarin still. Is there a good thread to check out for the best way to theme this rom? Thanks for all of the help!

Theming is super easy, especially if you have a base to start with. The theme I'm working on at the moment is mostly taken from other places then edited the way I want. A few pieces were actually made by me, but the framework was pulled from one theme, I'm using Aelous icons at the moment, but nothing else from that theme. I may change my mind and steal Raadius's status bar icons if I don't like the ones I'm using right now. I've themed the apps myself, using the official dark theme as a base. Even though I've switched back to WidgetLocker, I am using my own stuff for the lockscreen, just for those times that it pops up.
There are some themes over on Miui.us as well as the MIUI dev forums. I pretty much taught myself by using a complete sample theme and pulling the apks I wanted to theme - systemui, framework-res, phone, mms, etc. If you just want icons, they go in the icons folder of the mtz and should be named their package name and in png form. I'm sure there's a guide somewhere, but I don't know one off the top of my head. If you do find one, make sure it's fairly recent since they've been making a lot of changes to the UI.
Also, if you weren't using the miui.us English version of 1.5.20, try that one.

Can you explain the difference between format all and wipe?
I am helping a friend with his Droid Incredible. I have an Inspire 4G and have become very comfortable flashing ROMs on my phone. When I flash a new ROM, I boot into recovery and choose all of the format options that are available, then I mount the SD card and transfer the ROM to the SD card. Next, I install the ROM and reboot. This has worked great for me.
My friend used Urevoked to root his phone and installed MIUI using this same method and he is having a lot of issues with force closes. In some apps, like Dropbox, he can log in but it never transfers data. My research to help him out let me to this thread and then your post intrigued me.
Maybe I don't have an understanding of what is meant by a full-wipe. I thought the method I did with my Inspire was providing that task. Can you help me understand further.
I did pass the information about Amon Ra to him and he may try that.
Thanks,
Roger
