[Android] Fat Free Froyo [ALL LANG-ODEX] 11/10

so this is what i have been messing with for the past few days since i think not so super froyo has hit a point that im happy with for the moment
my goal with this build is to get rid of as much of the unneeded apps as possible and shrink the system down as small as it can.
things that are removed from the initial install that are in fresh froyo
-HTC_IME
-Gmail, google search, voice search and pretty much every other google app that can now be installed from the market
-as always live wallpapers and launcher 2 are gone
- the how to use android widget
- their are no other wallpapers or galleries installed on this build too their are plenty of the apps on the market for that
- THIS BUILD IS ENGLISH AND SPANISH ONLY!
things that are in it
- a new blue theme i have been working on (some of the .png's are from losteden, vellowax and some other various themes), its pretty close to perfect but their might be a few hiccups still
- ADW is still the launcher of choice and its still in /data for easy removal
- a different themed clock
- zip align on first boot
- astro and rogue tools are both installed in /data
known issues
- ADW still does the could not load widget error like in Not so super
I was going to odex this build but wasnt able to get the ADB driver to work correctly (if somebody does manage to get it Odex'd feel free to post it)
Also this was merely a test to see how light i could get it and it ended up being decently stable, i don't know how much updating i am going to do to it.
RLS2
-car home and car home launcher removed
-music player removed as their are tons of replacements in the market
- now odex'd
New in odex'd RLS3
-street.apk is now removed since maps is also gone
- voicedialer is also gone seeing at the newest version of voice search on the market can voice dial also it seems pointless
- lowered the volume on the camera shutter noise
RLS4
- newer version of fresh froyo (thanks scooter)
- Now using ADW standalone with a myn warm twopointtwo inspired look
- Flutey phone ringtone now include by default
- different wallpaper this time around
- bright blue themed desk clock
- more "sensible" notification drawer
RLS5
-fixed facebook sync
-fixed the graphical issue with the status bar highlights being green instead of blue
-added the blue keyboard from my Galaxy S theme/port (delete key is a little small but the keyboard file size is overall smaller.
-new boot animation that goes better with the theme
ALL-LANG ODEX
-all languages
-doesn't have 1% battery indicators
-sadly some of the theming elements had to take a backseat to space saving
-seems just as stable

here is an odex'd version of the build, the music player is also removed seeing as there are a ton of free options for that on the market that do it better
also this is untested as far as data and sms, it should work fine ( i did check to make sure there was not a call hang issue)
ODEX DOWNLOAD RLS5
ALL LANG-ODEX

looks nice... gonna give it a shot!

Nice battery meter... what's it?
Is it available as update? (Running VaniljEclair... having trouble with Froyo )
Have a nice day

On our weak kaisers, we need more roms like this. Barebones and stripped to the maximum.
Please wait while I give it a go .
Thanks.

EPIC WIN Thoughtlesskyle! 100X times better than Not so Super Froyo and OVER 9000 times better than any other Android distro out there. My current droid, not changing it at all for a long time (only updates to this build and odexed build).

Fat Free Froyo
Seems to be a good build!
I'll test.
Nice job guy!

Really want to thank you for all the hard work on this and your other builds which I have been trying out.
I've had a lot of trouble with yours and others builds getting mass storage to work consistently - even using the Dual Mount Widget. Finally seem to have hit a good combo though with the latest 2.6.25 (+wifi fix) and your builds.
I'm loving the blue and black plus it's nice to know I'm not pushing the envelope installing some of my other fav apps .

so i just managed to get the build odex'd holy poop its fast is all i have to say
im a little low on bandwith from my free mediafire account so i kind of have to decide what i want to do as far as putting this build up

He's on fire..
Very nice work...

You are a busy man now...
Well, as I said before, feel free to use it, I don't plan to make a new theme at least for now, you mix them better than mine.
I'm now get busy with those java lang and eclipse, I still attempt to fix the camcorder app though I might failed.
This is a very great community, I learn a lot from here.

how sad is it that i just do this for fun, since my touch isn't active part of me actually enjoys having to do some basic problem solving and i must say i have learned alot about file structure and how android works from doing it, and im really happy i have been so well received by everyone since a few months ago i was the one using everyone else is builds, its nice to give back.
and i'm glad to see that this community is still active even though the faces have changed of people making the builds and doing the dev.
i am also thoroughly surprised at how many new people just show up on here.

odexed build now! HAVE TO DOWNLOAD ! You just managed to knock myn and incubus off my favourite android dev list! U are on top man, keep going! I'm just going to use 3, that nice music app replacement and it's perfect!

Could you explain (or reference) how you did the odexing.

sir i have a problem i try this version when i installed it then quit my phone is still in boot mode and it says mounting /data/sysfiles/ su on / system/xbin/sun faiel no such file or directory
need help sir here
in the below it says
ANDROID unable to open persistent directory /data/property error 2
what is the problem with this? thanks for the help

Blue
I love the blue theme in some of the icons - actually a bit easier to read for me than the green.
Nice and quick
Trouble is I don't use market so all the apps I want have to be installed using my alternative method - but it's nice to have the control ...

Very nice job, I like it, but how can I add french language ?

Kernel recommendations?
Which kernel is recommended for this build on Kaiser?
URL would be nice.
I've tried running some different builds with zImage-2.6.32-froyo-09-10-10_23 from (http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/) and the new haret-for-kernel-2-6-32, but that gives really crappy performance for me.
Takes ages for haret to switch from frozen state to android boot + long boot time and FCs.

thank you for the kind words but i still stand firm on my statement that i am not a dev i'm a guy who can use 7zip and read. also being patient helps too.
but yea it seems to be really stable so far i am happy i finally got it to odex

alright here is the thread with the odexing info i used
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=694597
my biggest problem (and still is) i could never get my vogue to read correctly with my windows 7 computer, so how i worked around it was
1. first i moved all of the apps into /system so /data was empty
2. then using 7zip i edited the tar so that the odex script was in the same place that the adb push would have located it (e.g. /data/odex/odex.sh)
3. then i added a terminal editor into the build (i just grabbed the one from CM6)
4. i booted up the phone then opened terminal emulator
5. in the emulator i typed the following
su (the superuser box will pop up i hit allow, this caused the program not to work right after the SU so i backed out and when back into it) then i typed
su
# sh /data/odex/odex.sh
6 once i did that the script started odexing the files
7 upon completion the phone needed to be restarted
8 then using astro i pressed up till i could get to the system folder
9 i then copy and pasted this to the sd card
10 i then put the sd card into my computer and used 7zip to replace the system i was using with the newly odex'd system
11 since not everything was in the system folder i copied i used 7zip to merge the missing files this was the ect folder and the media folder
12 i then deleted the files i moved into /system from data (adw,roguetools,and astro) and put the /data folder back into the .tar
13 then booted it up on my phone for a test run
i am pretty sure thats about everything i did to odex it

[ROM]VillainROMZ & SuperVillainZ for the G2/DZ - Sense UI & Vanilla Style!

WELCOME TO VILLAINROM
This bit’s the introduction. If you’re not interested in who we are, or how we got here, or are of the TL;DR mentality, then skip this entire section.
I HAVE INTERNET AT LAST! 5 weeks without it, and I'm officially back online, today! woop! Thank you for your patience. We wanted to make sure this ROM was right for you all prior to release! As many of you have noticed, I’m well and truly back in to the world of custom roms, after a few months break over the summer. Believe me, it was well and truly needed. It’s great to be back though.
If you’ve come from a HTC Hero/Desire or Magic, the chances are, you’ve heard of VillainROM. For that reason, I won’t go into who we are in too much detail. Sufficed to say, we’re a hardworking team of collaborative developers, working towards a common goal; to improve on manufacturer’s versions of the Android OS’ and to provide alternative, AOSP versions. We will no longer be providing 'experimental beta' releases, but instead, only releasing ROMs we deem to be 'final'.
So... to the ROM!
Before I do, though, I’d just like to take this opportunity to offer a huge message of gratitude to the team at #g2root. Scotty2 and the team worked their arses off for weeks on this, and together they achieved what HTC attempted to make impossible. We all owe them a huge debt of thanks.
This thread will house two ROMs; each of which will have its own thread on VillainROM.co.uk, but it's more manageable in the one here. Because of this, I'd appreciate it if you could post the name of the ROM you're using prior to reporting a problem/giving praise. These ROMs follow the successful release of Villision last week, which was a combined effort between HomerSP and myself. Homer is a legend, and he's worked with me again on this one. Once labelled 'The Hotfix King', he has been known to de-odex sleeping frogs and some pretty large haddock. I thank him, once again for his help and support.
VillainROMZ for the G2/Z is a stock Sense UI build, with a few VillainROM tweaks. The more obvious tweak is that the reboot and reboot to recovery options have been added, but I assure you, more changes have been made to the 'back end', so you should see an improvement on performance.
SuperVillainZ on the other hand, is one of VillainROM's specialities. It was, some time ago, one of the most popular ROMs on the Hero, and offers a combination of SenseUI and vanilla. It's entirely based on VillainROMZ, with HomerSP's power menu tweak and the tweaks of VillainROM, however, Rosie, and Sense UI widgets have been removed from the build. In addition, the age old problem of the ALARM CLOCK + LOCKSCREEN has been FIXED, by the very same, fish de-odexing legend, HomerSP. That means, you can use your HTC alarm, with your vanilla lockscreen... at last.
SuperVillainZ offers users what are, in our opinion the best bits of Sense UI (apps), with a Vanilla-like feel. The huge reduction in /system size and applications obviously makes it run that little bit better, too. This is the perfect ROM for those that can't decide... to sense, or not to sense.
The ever growing list of credits - Thanks to: HomerSP, Pulser, Cyanogen, Scotty, #g2root, Ninpo, Kendon, Mike Coffee, Lenny, Shen, Jeremy, Paul (Modaco), Richard Trip, MikeBeecham, RaiderX, lox, benhaam, strange Chinese guy whose name I don’t know but regularly places leaks in my dropbox, ALL VILLAINROM users, and in advance to anyone who downloads any of these ROMs, supports us, or leaves feedback.
/End introduction.

Very nice. Waiting for mirroring to finish.
I haven't really given Sense UI much of a chance... let's see how this goes

For anyone who downloaded the ROM more than 2 minutes ago, please download it again, as I have corrected an error that gave you an older version of the ROM, without so much added awesomesauce.
Congrats to ddotpatel who spotted my *AHEM* deliberate little test (I wish... )

Hey, I downloaded the SuperVillain rom but the homescreen does not look anything like the picture posted? I'm looking for the Sense-style Clock/Weather but cannot seem to find it.

Very nice ROM.....
I have already downloaded and installed it successfully. So far I have not found any serious bugs yet.
One question : Is there such function that I can enlarge the system font size by this ROM? If yes, how to do it?
Thanks again for your good work!

Says in the OP - that's the new Fancy Widget.
I've been looking forward to this. Villivision ran beautifully but I just can't deal with the inferior dialler, clock and camera apps. Or the general ugliness of the statusbar and its icons. I hope those bits have been carried over.
Question - is there a CIFS module included in this?

Nice ROM
Nice ROM
I have two question
1. after flash this rom and first booted(no install any APK)
in setting/SD & Phone Storage
Available space only 0.88G that's normal right?
2. i want to restore my setting and apk using Titanium Backup
it told me not "rooted"
this ROM not included rooted?
Thank you for your response

Props for a solid stock ROM i.e VillainROMZ
So far it seems to be running smooth as

It's rooted but it doesn't have Busybox. Hit the "problems?" thing at the bottom of Titanium Backup to download it.

it is working,thanks

Would it be possible (in any way) to have this wonderful ROM ported to the Motorola Milestone 2?? Which just recently got rooted and clockwork recovery works now...

trackpad to wake is included, however it doesn't seem to work when the phone has been asleep for a long period of time.
Can someone confirm and post a bug report in the correct section over at villainrom.co.uk?
thanks

Looks great. Im tired of Sense, so Im going to try the SuperVillainZ rom. I will report back after im done flashing it. Thanks!

SuperVillainZ is best for people (like me) who love HTC's apps (that can't be directly replaced like wifi hotspot, flashlight, dialer etc) but are not a massive fan of rosie as a launcher.
I am sticking with sense for now, until I get bored of "new sense" but SuperVillain is usually my rom of choice.

Just to make it easier for you here are direct links to the bug tracking forum on VR.
Please use the correct one

Thanks!
Edit: xda link fixed, stupidly linked to the wrong rom

Flashed successfully. Everything seems to run in order and nothing out of the ordinary noticed. However, its quite late and I need some sleep, but I will report back if anything comes up. Thanks for the ROM. It's a great escape from the Rosie launcher while having the apps and features that came with Sense.

Not wishing to sound rude (though it probably will do), why do people have to specifically go to another website to log a bug for this ROM ? That's not how support for ROMs normally works on XDA, is it ? e.g. cyanogen doesn't tell you to go and log a formal bug report whenever you find an issue.

[Rom] Deviant v0.77 -2nd release (27/2/2011)

Deviant v0.77
Here is an attempt at changing the recent trend in Galaxy S (i9000) ROMs. It seams the focus is mostly on speed (not only speed of course but its definitely prioritized to the point of sometimes leaving little option but a stock ROM or a quick ROM), which is good for some people and great for improving OS knowledge and leading to advances all over the place but why have a modern phone with decent specs with the only advantage being the ability to load the MMS app a few milliseconds quicker? Don't get me wrong I think most of the ROMs available are great I just find there's not really anything like what I'm attempting to do (that I've come across at least). But the most experimental change I am trying to implement and my main focus in creating this ROM is to replace as many of the stock apps as possible with community made alternatives which has turned out to be quite a challenging process due to most apps not being designed to be used together in such a way and especially without the standard system apps being available to them (though some just work perfectly as full replacements many just don't, possibly due to certain system apps calling each other in ways that just causes repeated force closings at boot) but it's definitely do able as I've replaced almost all of the standard apps already but there's bound to be some issues so time will tell.
So in attempting to fill in this perceived gap I am working on a ROM that:
* Replace as many of the standard apps as possible with full featured free alternatives (SUPPORT FREE SOFTWARE!!!)
* Adding extras you may not even need but you might have fun fiddling with none the less
* Providing a ROM that you can flash then immediately just have fun with that still is fully functional and stable
* Is suitable for everyday use
* That isn't noticeably lagged
* Which contains a new custom theme (possibly to be started in the next release but it wont be a priority over useability and stability)
I hope this find at least a small appreciative audience. I am VERY open to comments and suggestions especially about good free apps that I may not have even heard of (and considering how many apps are available now days it is a definite possibility).
PLEASE NOTE! This is still very much in development, its going to have problems most likely petty little ones but there's going to be a few at least, most likely incompatibilities between apps or stock apps I've replaced that has broken the ROM in some way. But so far I'm definitely happy with the results and consider it usable and reasonably stable but there's definitely so much more I can do so hopefully there is interest in this ROM to motivate my continued work.
List of ROM changes and specifics below in following post.

BLN Control Free
Download All Files
E-mail Notifier
Barcode Scanner
Ebuddy
AnySoft Keyboard
Contapps
Go Launcher Notifications
MortPlay Widget
PDF Viewer
Voltage Control
Youtube
Specifics:
JS5 Base (WIPE)
Super Optimized Kernel v4.7.9
GO Launcher EX
Modified Phone.apk for call recording if desired
Default LCD Density changed to 200 (looks much nicer)
Custom made Deviant boot animations (one needs some work one isn't bad though)
Installation Instructions:
Flash via clockwork (at the moment the script wont flash properly with clockwork 3 it doesn't fail but it wont install the apps correctly so if your using a voodoo kernel or another kernel with version 3 (orange menus) just flash Speedmod or something else with cw v2.5 instead of 3). Prior to flashing make sure to do a full wipe. The app "backup everything" is included in this ROM so that you may use it to back up your apps and whatever else if you are following the deviant releases. If you do decide to flash a post saying that you have flashed this ROM would be great to give me some idea of how many people are using it.
There's probably a few little changes I've forgot to mention, if anyone notices any obvious ones could you please make me aware so I can list them

Some screenshots would be nice

There's nothing much to see screen shot wize as yet, stock theme with just a custom background... its the software differences that make it interesting so far. But yah I need to get some up thanks for the reminder!

Try to use the gray icons in the menus (settings), they look better and elegant than the colorful one's. Try also to put some info about the battery usage, most of the users aim for a ROM with good battery performance regardless of the kernel.

Very interesting ! Sure a supa-cool theme would make your rom really different !

Yah I know what ya mean the stock colours are a bit rough on the eye, I'm keen to start doing some theme work as i go along but I may use a nice theme that's already available in the next release to get things looking nice before I get to it. Kernel: Most likely going to be changed anyway, possibly to something UV'ed by default but not necessarily OC'd which leads me to battery, drain doesn't seam bad at all... but I'm bin experimenting and testing different software mixes alot so I really haven't had the change to really gauge it but its not horrible at the moment (IMO).

Hi again,
I think different proffessionals have different requirements. If you want this to to see a logical end, make a ROM for doctors, one for engineers, one for architects, one for politicians, one for social workers, one for kids, one for teenagers, one for single MOMs, one for divorcees, Etc, Etc.
One package doesn't seriously fit ALL.
EDIT1 : A seriously overweight woman would require a diet plan software.
EDIT2 : A scientist would prefer to have wolfram & use it.

While reading the first few sentences..
I was having the idea that this rom is working towards battery efficiency..
lol.. I see you're having fun replacing stock apps..
Enjoy..

Oh, what app did you use for contact replacement ? I'm trying to replace samsung contact app with AOSP Contact App...but I fail everytime. Do you think it's possible ?

hmmm I see what your saying and perhaps I haven't quite expressed my intentions perfectly yet (this is very much a work in progress)... My main intention is to switch out as many of the standard apps as possible (from the dialer to Google maps) with free community developed alternatives, this is my main aim. My secondary aim is to have something with a bit of weight to it, not ridiculously full just full of nice useful apps that cover a decent range of uses but not anything so specific as to target a specific audience.
Also thanks for advising me about those themes, I am currently looking into a few options atm. Though unsure which to persue as yet.
Also a new build will be going up in the next hour or so (my upload speed is horrible atm) which has had quite a few changes since the first release... Also keep an eye out as I will be putting alot of time towards this and are hoping for daily updates (till things reach a point I'm alot more happy with).
So please come back now and then just to see whats bin done and your comments are definately more then welcome!

Oh, what app did you use for contact replacement ? I'm trying to replace samsung contact app with AOSP Contact App...but I fail everytime. Do you think it's possible ?

ahh i see we've run into similar problems, specifically the mms and contacts apps... Atm I've pretty well settled on just adding an extra two apps and leaving them (that reminds me I need to re-add contapps its quite good). There's definitely dependance issues with those two apks which there is possibly a way around but definitely not an obvious one, I've spent a bit of time reading around but yet to have any luck and quite a lot of experimenting has left me with no luck so far sorry... Would be wonderful to hear back if you find a solution

Ok. I was thinking about a dependance issue too, so I'm looking at the other files contained, for example, in the Gapps zip of CM7. There is a LIB folder, which could be related to. Following that track : in the Lib folder of CM7, we can find some lib files related to the keyboard, the camera app, etc... But no explicit "libcontact" file (for example).
I don't think that Etc and Framework folders could be useful.
However, I'm just groping.

Actually this is something I noticed aswell... When I replaced the gallery in Deviant I found I could use Floating Image as a replacement fine but that didnt cut it as a good full featured gallery (though it was cool to look at) so I decided to replace it with QuickPic which just force closed on boot, but by doing alot of reading around happened across a fix but putting a single library file from its APK into the lib folder of the rom and now it works flawlessly. Yet to find a way around the MMS or Contacts issue sadly, which is something I would really like to have fixed in a future release.

Very interesting .. we're on the right track. Maybe contacting a skilled developer (Darky, Doc,...) would be helpful? Or even the CM7 developers.

That could possibly help (would hate to annoy them though they are doing some really great work)... It's definitely something that gets asked around the net a bit as I've noticed while doing some research but it seams the MMS apk sets up the messaging settings in some way on first boot and can often be replaced after that, I think the easiest way to do that would be to script something to remove/switch the apk after its done its job right at the end of first boot, though doing so could be somewhat of a challenge in itself and their doesn't seam be any obvious lib files in the apk. As for my issue with the contact app, I think that's really provably to do with a dependance but then again it could just be the way all the contact apps I've tried are coded (not designed to run by them self and perhaps depending on the stock app in some way)...

[VOTE] Do you want Official Sense Launcher locked @ 60FPS? | UPDATE

Major update! Seems that your votes did count! Sense launcher 60fps is a reality in the latest 2.17.401.2 update!
For the new comers i will make it quick, the reason why Sense 4 launcher drop frame rates (lag) is simply because of Sense widgets, those widgets have a fake depth effect added to it, for example the weather full screen widget you can see how the font is floating above the graphics and if you tilt the widget you notice the floating layers, this effect is the main reasons why Sense 3D launcher lags, its a needless and inconsistent effect since now they removed it in some of the widgets
In Sense 3.x I managed to fix it by making a modification that flattens/freeze widgets during page scroll using a method actually written by HTC called QuickScroll (invoked when you press home and the launcher spin back to the default homescreen), this mod was very successful and managed to run every Sense 3.x launcher at locked smooth 60fps!
Sense 4 code changed, so I've re-written and released it for the One X
Ultra & Super Smooth Sense 4 Launcher (Rosie) v1.0 - One X
Ultra Smooth Mode for Sense 3.x - 3D Sense launcher @ 60fps (single core 1ghz)
Screenshots
So please hit thanks and vote if you want Ultra Smooth 60fps Sense launcher (Rosie) on your One X out of stock from HTC
We will send this post to HTC dev in order for them to understand once and for all, OS Launchers should never drop frame rates or lag, it ruins your whole perception of the device speed, Examples for how it should be: Apex launcher and Ultra Smooth Rosie!
Those who are rooted can try it by downloading it from here, the pages flip smoothly, you can see how locked smooth it is during page scroll even if you have the heavy weather widget, however i also believe the launcher is capped below 60fps, something in between which also needs to be fixed by HTC, in contrast Sense 3.5/3.6 launcher was capped @ 60fps
Another way to test this is to remove all Sense widgets and replace them with market's widgets like APW, HD widgets etc, you will notice the stutter is gone!
It's silly that the Desire HD with Sense 3.0 launcher and this mod runs smoother than the One X

Thanks for the quick mod. Proof of concept is smooth! An option from HTC to disable this would be cool!
Slightly OT, how difficult would it be to disable wallpaper scrolling in Rosie? I do believe disabling it will make the launcher appear smoother.

no the weather in the clock widget is still not flat lots of elements are not flattened, they have a marginal depth which means layer, which means lag

thats the idea behind this vote, the stutter is related to this issue and my ultra smooth patch is the proof
the idea is to collected this vote and contacting HTC dev, maybe once and for all we manage to kill this silly stuttery effect...that's been ruining all their Sense 3 devices

My Sense launcher isn't laggy with the depth effect on (in ARHD 5.2 w/Franco kernel). Are you all using a different device to me?!
I didn't even notice it was 3D until I peered very closely at the edges of the CD case on the music widget and the 'floating' weather on the clock - nothing like Sense 3 which was a bit overboard (and too much for my old Desire for sure!)
The only thing that's laggy on mine is sometimes bringing up the app drawer takes long enough that it doesn't bother playing the animation, but I don't think that's anything to do with 3D objects on the home screen anyway...

But it's iOS-smooth already! The stock ROM/kernel was a bit choppy - that's why I asked - I thought perhaps a bug was causing some 'real' lag somewhere like Sense 3 running on a Desire
But perhaps it would be worth doing from the point of view that reducing the load on the GPU ought to improve screen-on battery life to some extent. Especially given that most people are utterly oblivious to the fact that Sense 3/4 home screens are 3D anyway.

You kids like ROMs? Yeah... me too.
If you poke around these forums, you'll see that I once put together a spreadsheet comparing many ROMs for the Wildfire S, and I gotta say: overall, I was impressed with what I tested (and I'm VERY thankful for the folks who keep cooking up these ROMs) but I was never fully satisfied. Thus, WildChild was born. I hope you find it useful, speedy, and good-looking (... okay, then at least good-looking).
WildChild is dedicated to my two WildChilds: Joshua and Matteo.
HTC Sense-based ROM, with most of the Sense removed. (Does that make Sense?
OS = Android "Gingerbread" 2.3.5
App2SD, BusyBox, rooted, zipaligned, and all that standard crap.
Running the Nemus launcher (built-in task manager that actually works; built-in ability to organize your apps; 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 ****.)
Some stock HTC APKs replaced with newer/more-efficient/prettier versions.
Old Google Market (runs faster than the newer versions).
Old SMS text messaging (your precious screen space isn't wasted by those pesky text bubbles).
aCalendar replaces the stock HTC calendar.
All installed APK's are at the latest version (at the time this post was published).
Minimal ringtones (to save space on /system). You can easily add your own!
Wake the phone (from sleep mode) by using the volume rocker switch.
Global audio equalizer (with a built-in WildChild preset).
Using E.Frat's latest Cake over-clocked kernel.
Fully modular and highly configurable. Just check the Add-On's section regularly.
Features unique to WildChild:
Beautifully and painstakingly themed in a way that pleases me (and hopefully you, too.
Modified SMS notification icon for task bar (stock one looks a lot like Email icon... not anymore!)
Funky volume up/down indicator sounds.
Font tweaks (the lockscreen clock is actually READABLE now).
100% guaranteed non-annoying boot animation. Plus, no bootdown animation (faster shutdown).
Unique lockscreen created by Tigger31337: a ring of (Wild)fire against the setting moon.
Unique method of APK-level customization. This translates into a more consistent end-user experience and less setup time for you! As far as I know, no other ROM uses this method, so I'll just sit back and wait for the copycats to hit the scene.
Crazy-sick amount of RAM (almost 300 MB FREE!!) out of the box.
Tons of internal storage space for your apps (77 MB free on de-odex. 117 MB free on odex!!)
Some other useless crap that I'm sure I forgot. Just try the damn thing. I bet you'll like it.
Tested (and works!) on Wildfire S GSM. Might work on CDMA; might not. Who the hell knows.
WildChild comes in 2 flavours: FULL and LITE.
FULL contains most of the stock HTC ROM functionality without all the bloat. For example, all HTC widgets are removed, APKs have been tweaked/compressed where possible, and the Nemus launcher replaces the default "Rosie" launcher.
LITE takes it a step further by removing even more rarely-used APK's as well as most of the Google backup/synchronization services. Please don't install WC-Lite and then ask me why you can't synch your accounts or I will drive down to your house and spank you in front of your parents.
To make your choice even harder, both flavours come in an ODEX and DE-ODEX version. Major difference? ODEX buys you more internal (high-speed) storage... good for hosting your widgets and other "critical" processes.
Check the screenshot below (19-WC-Compare.jpg) to see exactly what the space savings are between all the ROMs.
WildChild comes with the following applications already built-in:
aCalendar
AdFree
AnEq Equalizer (with custom WildChild preset built-in)
Barcode/QR Scanner
CalendarSnooze
FileExpert
Flashlight
GPSStatus
Link2SD
Nemus Launcher
NoFrills CPU
Notepad
PartitionsInfo Lite
QuickPic Gallery
ScreenFilter
Startup Auditor
SuperUser
Terminal
The Weather Network (not on the Lite version)
WiFi Manager
WiFi Tracker
(You really should know these steps by now, but for tradition's sake...)
Prepare and partition your SDCard. (Folks seem to enjoy a FAT32 primary, a 1 GB ext4 (I use ext2), and a 512MB Linux Swap... in that order.)
Copy the WildChild ROM .zip file to your SDCard. Cool.
Reboot into Recovery mode.
Wipe data/factory reset. (Do it twice, especially if on CWM)
Wipe Dalvik cache. (twice, as above)
Choose "Install zip from SDCard".
(You might have to toggle Signature Verification until it is Disabled)
"Choose zip from SDCard" and select your WildChild ROM .zip file.
(read the splash screen and wait about 2 mins.)
Reboot phone; wait another 2-3 mins.
N.B. Starting with WildChild v1.5, two reboots is now normal and expected during the setup.
When lockscreen appears with your local carrier time, you may unlock phone and start using.
Enjoy! (...and throw a "Thanks" my way! )
N.B.
For those on previous versions of WildChild, I will soon release an "upgrade pack" that will take you straight to v2.0. For those without the patience (hey, I don't blame you!), then go ahead and flash the full v2.0. The latter is probably the more stable option, anyway. As usual, ensure you backup your data first!
Might I make the following suggestions? Why, thank you:
OS Settings: disable vibration on type, set your date/time, disable fast boot and power saver, disable "ask me about USB connection", disable all window animations, set 2 minute screen timeout (anything less is annoying), disable vibration feedback for UI.
WC v1.5 UPDATE: All of this is now done for you, thanks to my apk-level customization. You're welcome!!
CPU: Max = 768Mhz, Min = 122Mhz. Gov = Scary. This will give you excellent balance between performance and battery life.
WC v1.5 UPDATE: This is also done for you! I now set the min. CPU at 600Mhz. However, I still leave the choice of scheduler up to you. I like sio and noop... but that's just me, what do I know?
Link2SD: I use ext2 (for various reasons... performance, mostly), but if your fs is ext4, that's cool too. Set the default location to External. I do *NOT* recommend enabling the auto-link feature, as this will consume a good 9MB of RAM.
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.)
OS Settings (Reprise): WildChild sets non-Market app installation and Mock Locations to enabled by default. Fast Boot is set to disabled. Hugely convenient.

I should say, it's not just a "theme" but a lot of the APKs themselves were modified, so the end result is a more consistent look. (e.g. the phone is blue, the camera is blue, contacts, Market, etc.)
I'll look into WidgetLocker and keep you posted. Stay tuned!

Good question.
If you see my "First Boot" section, I recommend setting the CPU to 122-768Mhz, Governor = Scary, and Scheduler = sio.
This combo gives, objectively, the best results for me (and it should be for you, too, since we're using the same hardware). I stuck with Smartass+noop for the longest time, but was unhappy with battery life. This new combo is definitely better, but I won't give values because it all depends on your usage.
A rough guideline is that it runs (for me) about a day and a half of normal usage (talk, text, surfing, streaming vids, etc.) Your mileage may vary.
At a little over 100 MB, though, I suggest grabbing WildChild LITE and giving it a try. Report your findings back here.
p.s. Here's a great reference as to the workings of CPU govs/scheds. You'll see that the Scary gov was designed with battery life from the ground-up.

If you were using a Sense-based Gingerbread ROM and your phone is S-ON, then the answer is almost certainly yes. Simply restore both your APKs and your data, and all should be well.
If you're S-OFF and performed some funky low-level mods on your phone, then all bets are off. My best advice here would simply be to try it and see. Since you've already got backups, I don't see the problem in trying. Report your findings back here for others to see/learn.

Haha... yes, I set that ring on fire... the phone is named WiLDFiRE, after all!
And, sticking with that theme, I do in fact have a burning animation on bootup. Download it and check it out. That is also custom-coloured by me (I didn't create the animation itself, but I tinted it red to give it a soothing firey look. I love it and I hope you do, too. )
I'm in the middle of grabbing some more screenshots and that will be one of them.

and all the data is restored now and now am restoring the sd-ext partition... and i saw someone asking about the arabic language it does exist but the problem with it is that the letters are seperated not connected which is hard to read it but i believe there is a thread somewhere here in the xda forum that help you fix that issue
now after am having fun with your rom i have this issue with the accounts & sync that it doesn't work always force stop i believe you removed this option for increasing the ram and the internal space am i right ?
if so how can i enable this back because i always backup my contacts to google and would like to do facebook sync so i can get the profile pictures of my friends to the phone contact list...
cheers man nice rom

This rom looks nice. i would use it but sense lockscreen really upsets me
