(wip) Dirty Diablo General discussion, Q&A, and request Thread - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok some of y'all have seen the thread by diablo67 with his nandroid backup of dirty unicorn. Well we have teamed up to bring you his vision of dirty diablo. Now first off this is nothing more than a themed and tweaked version of mazdas rom so the major credit goes to him.
What you will get is a rom that looks like you just picked it up at the store. It has gapps installed along with a few extra apps loaded. When you boot up the phone you will not go through the normal first time setup of the phone it goes straight to your launcher which adw. Take a look at a few of the screenies and tell us what you think.
Peace,
Love, and
Happiness
Alright I have created an OP under development and figured I would make this into a General duscussion, Q&A, and request thread.

screenies
Okay here is what we are looking at.

Sounds like a bad porn name.

Great find hipkat. Have been brainstorming for beta .2 already and sounds are top on my list.
What I have been thinking of is a combination of thunder cats sounds and devil reference music along with backgrounds and icons. Any suggestions?

I dunno about that devil reference music, me being a hardcore Pentecostal Christian and all, but I COULD sample some beats form some of my slyer collection.....

Well HipKat I think I will have just the thing that might work for you. Maybe ringtone will be The Devil went down to Jamaica. Those are the kind of references I was thinking of. Maybe you got a couple you would like tossed in?

Well so far its stuck in the Android boot loading screen.. Going to try and re-download on my laptop and flash again..

on the boot animation? black screen with android text? I know it takes awhile to load. If you can hook it to pc and do adb logcat. that will tell where or if it is actually looping or locked. I want to say the first boot took about 5-10 mins. I will also do a md5 sum on my files and compare them to goo.im to make sure it was not a bad upload.
Edit: md5sums from goo.im match what I have on my pc so uploads should be fine. I am reflashing to my phone to check it out also. You did wipe your sd-ext correct? I know most dont but with storage swap being installed that could cause an issue.

Ok I'm getting this stuff down pat but I haven't done a logcat yet.. How do I do that? And I am flashing again now... I will give it more time to load..
I only gave it about 3 minutes to try to load..

How to logcat

Yes 3 mins is not long enough. I just wiped my phone and installed rom it took about 6 mins to get past the boot animation. Diablo has a pretty blue animation that will be included next time. I would check your md5sums if it does not boot within 10 mins.

Ok so I let it sit for about 10 min that time still no go... I'm doing a nand back to 4 kornerz and gonna check the md5sums...

ok i am getting off for the night will check back in tomorrow and see how it came out. If anyone else has had this issue please let me know. I checked the md5sums on my sdcard just incase i mixed up the zips and those are the same also. So I am not sure what is going on honda but hang in we will get it working for you.

One thing no one has ever made is a ROM that appeals to an old Metal head like me, and I don't mean Motely Crue metal, I mean like Slayer/Rammstein/Entombed/Helloween, etc variety.
It would have to be very dark, like this:
Not the typical blue/black or red/black
I think I have a killer Icon pack for it too, that's all glass or grey, or if not, I can probably find it. Ringtones would have to be dark and heavy, like the Terminated.ogg (Attached and rar'd so it would attach)
That's a project I'd kill to help with.
Also, well over a year ago, some dude made for me a boot.ani of the old Paldium music channel promo of the trees turning into birds swooping over the ground. That was very cool. It may still be WA buried deep in the themes section

[Theme] Blood Splatter JF 1.42 RC-33 Only! - UPDATED!

Here is something i through together...
Blood Splatter Theme:

**use at own risk... worked great on mine and others but there is always a possibility of brick.. although not high... i am not responsible.**
Boy, remind me never to upset you
haha - i just got done watching Halloween before starting this theme...
I will definitely be giving this a go. Who doesn't like blood? You think you might be able to get the word "android" somewhere in the second blood splatter?

Sorry worked fine on mine and my friends... try a wipe first maybe?
Okay.Now that it's been on the boot screen for 15 minutes..... the notifications bar came up.... it is bloody. But the rest of the screen is black. I'm not trying to be a jerk, I might have screwed it up.... but if not just a heads up if it's something you can fix.
Looks like a badass theme if it would work properly. I even have the Halloween theme as my ringtone. Haha

are you on RC-30?
I wiped my phone then it worked hmm...i could take a look. Looks good keep working and adding blood.
I have JF RC30 1.3
I don't really want to wipe my phone again....so I'll pass on this one. Thanks though. Keep working on it.
Simply awesome theme.
I installed this over the Ghost Black beta and it worked like a charm. No wipe needed.

that looks cool, I will be gone for a few days... an emergency came up... i will hopefully have version 2 done by next weekend and i will include this as a wallpaper... thanks!
Can you build version 2 to be compatible with JFv1.41? Decisions, decisions... Auto rotate and multi-touch browser, or a sweet sweet display.
I'm going to try my hand at doing it myself, and if I get a workable version I'll upload my zip file.
I went with the below for my wallpaper but cropped it to exclude the Zombie Girl text. Her right cheek just lines up with the right side of the center screen. If I get the 1.41 build going I'll crop it and throw it in the wallpaper section.
I did a quick hack job and here is a version of the theme with the browser updated to match JFv1.41. I left all the other APK's as they were in the original theme release.
I flashed this to my phone and it's working for me. Use caution because I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing and this is my first time doing anything theme related. I take no responsibility for what this files does to anyone's phone. RC30 only.
Here's what happened just in case it helps anyone in the future. When I originally added this theme to 1.41 the browser multitouch and autorotate disappeared as they should have. I created an update.zip with the new multitouch but left the browser.odex. When I applied the theme, it replaced the browser but the features still didn't work. So, I re-applied JFv1.41 to start with a clean slate. Then, I made the update.zip that I'm posting, which removed the browser.odex. I'm not sure if starting from a clean slate fixed it, or if removing browser.odex fixed it.
http://www.4shared.com/file/82469566/c5abb08d/blood_splatter_-_multitouch_browser.html
I'll try to update the rest tonight or in the next day or two. Are you still working on this theme Randum Access? I'm confused by the differences between the thread title and your last post. If you aren't, do you mind if I fork or maintain this as long as I give you credit in any subsequent releases?
Thanks again for putting this out there.

You do understand this has no Sense at all?
I'm guessing you were looking for TrollogenMODS 0.9.2? Or 0.9.3 (whichever got released XD)
I've had no problems like this at all with it. Try rebooting. Or perhaps clear the cache. Wipe data if none of that works.
Does this have a status bar? I know why it didn't. I was in a rush and edited the .zip instead of changed the files and rezipped.
Sorry bout that.
Anything else? Any requests?
Also - 7:47!! Wooooo breakfast tiem!!
I may or may not be able to reply for a good time today. It depends on how school is. They're all away to Alton Towers so that means just ducking around today. Liek a bawse.

[ROM]EasyDoesIt 1.0 ~ Faux10u ~ Fluid ~ UCKK1 Base [3/24/2012]

Hello folks, my name is CB and I am no developer.
I neither want nor deserve any recognition or status and I don't want
any donations for the work I've done. I can cut and paste and I got lucky
that the people who have gone before me made all this **** very compatible.
I have gotten permission to use this base and this kernel. I got tired of waiting
and asking for someone to release a rom like this so I took matters into my own hands. ​
This is an ATT base and it
DOES NOT SUPPORT WIFI CALLING
at this time.
CREDITS
Faux123
Whitehawkx
crypted

The good:
This is the rom we have been waiting for fellas
very smooth
FAST gps
14 panel quick toggle
very light
highly dewizzed
zeam launcher
bravia
xloud
high res media fix
fast 3g/4g
The Bad:
No Wifi calling....yet
No CRT off
Money printing currently bugged
The Ugly:
Still twiz :'(
No Theme​
TO INSTALL
- Make a Nand Backup
- Download rom.zip and place on sdcard
- Boot into clockwork recovery
- DO A FULL WIPE 3 DAMN TIMES!
- Install zip from sdcard
- Once zip has finished installing, reboot
- Now wait a minimum of 10 minutes, seriously...
- Reboot
ALSO I SUGGEST
After waiting 10 mins from first boot, batch restore all apps with data
THEN REBOOT
Then go and restore the user data like mms, contacts, wifi etc.
THEN REBOOT INTO RECOVERY and wipe cache, dalvik and fix permissions
Let the Rom settle for 5 mins after home screen boots.
This sequence will ensure a more stable system.
And also, Freeze wifi sharing and wifi sharing manager
and try it WITHOUT any OC apps first, if you followed all the above instructions it
should sleep very efficiently and be very responsive.
If your device is bricked at any time during the use of this rom I cannot be held responsible.

Good to see you back I ran your rom since you posted it and it worked great had a couple little issues but really smooth and had great battery life for me. I imagine you had an issue because of some apps which you had included? Either way don't matter to me but hope your rom is here to stay and you continue to work on it bro

So what am I doing wrong? After I restored dat.... I have no icons at top of screen. When I try to swype down it brings me to all my applications....
Not a big deal at all, but when the phone is in vibrate it seems to show the silent icon on the status bar. Still vibrates, but the icon is wrong. Is this just me?
Thanks in advance,

Sorry to ask, and no offense intended, but can you address the question of whether the questionable components have been removed? I would like to try the ROM but want to be sure. Thank you!

Not sure how your observation is at all helpful or needed. I am sure he is aware of why it was taken down and I was not asking him that. I was asking if the reason it was taken down was addressed. Otherwise, it may be taken down again. I think it is a fair question and deserves an answer.

Well i believe it was only root explorer... You can always download the rom and see if it's in there. And if you fear the piracy police, just remove it. You shouldn't really be pressing for a question to be answered when it was just recently asked. Such demands makes you look arrogant.

Are the bootanimations for aosp roms simple zip files? Or do then have to be zipped a certain way? I editted out the little circle under the Guy Faux mask that comes with the Infamous rom and I just get black screen on boot during the animation sequence. Without the edits the Infamous animation file works fine on aosp roms. But with my edits and rezipping the files it doesn't load at all.

They are simple zip files for AOSP. Make sure your picture file names are chronological. also check the desc.txt file to ensure it matches. as well as the part0 etc folders. there honestly isn't much to them, really strange how it wont display properly. and are you re-zipping, or simply drag and dropping the edited file to the zip?

I was rezipping. I will try just dropping the files into the existing zip.
I didn't change any of the other stuff like file names or anythinng. I just took the existing jpg's and edited out the part i didn't like and resaved them as the same file names.

what kind of format and compression were you using on the jpgs? Also, what program did you use to edit them? And what color depth?
Samsung Theme Designer seems easy but i keep getting a weird popup and cant advance to the next step

Windows Paint.
I wasnt doing anything more than adding a black box over top of a section of the animation I ddnt like. But I dont think that was the issue because I left some frames of the animation untouched and those didnt work either.

You should take video and make that into a boot animation!
Of course you'd never reboot your phone again....ever...
Good luck with the dentist. Do have someone take video of you leaving the office. From what Im told I was quite the entertainment for about 3 hours as the drugs wore off. I don't remember a bit of it. Though I kind of remember hitting on the nurse....

Yep feeling better today. And I got my bottoms pulled. They were impacted
And not sure if I actually posted it, but upload the pictures you want edited just zip them up. I'm pretty sure it's paint's save format that's breaking it.

Custom System UI sound snafu, need help

Hey guys, I'm not sure what to do next. I recently flashed in Jedi Master 14, which I'm loving, amd decided to be ridiculous and theme the entire phone to Star Wars, or as much as possible. DD gave me a Yoda shutdown anim, and I used the in-house boot animation installer from Rom Toolbox to change my boot animation.
Which led me to my sounds. Figured I'd start off easy with the lockscreen sounds, replce the watery splooshes with saber deactivation/ignition. So I did a bit of research amd figured out how to do it.
Found the files, that was easy. Also found an app to convert my downloaded mp3s to oggs, changed them, copied out the original sounds, put the new ones in, chamged the permissions to match their neighbors, rebooted and tested. Silence. I just also tried changing ownership so both list as "root," same as the other oggs, rebooted and tested again. Still nothing.
At this point, I'm wondering about file size/length, but my digging has yet to give anything about that. Do I need those, or at least the sizes, to match the originals? Any help or advice would be awesome.
Tl; dr, I broke things help.

Hmmm. This isn't something I've seen yet. How would I go about doing this?
"I'm" what? Did you get attacked by ninjas midpost?

I get attacked by ninjas all the time. I have 2 small boys (ninjas)
You'll find the option to fix permissions in a menu someplace after you boot to recovery. In twrp it's under advanced. Not sure about cwm

Ahhh, I understand. I have the same. How old?
And thankee. I found the command, backing up first, just to be safe. If this works, I'm going to be so happy.
And on that note, Pandora just starting playing Alestorm. This is a blessed venture, I think.
Backup finished quicker than I thought. Still no dice. Any other ideas?
2 boys 5 and 6 years old.
Unfortunately I'm out of ideas

Aaaah, nice. Ours are 6 and 2.
And I also somehow managed to break the lmt service...which I rely heavily on. So now I'm flashing in JM16 and leaving those sounds ALONE.
Yeah, right, let's see how long THAT lasts. Ill just be more vigilant with backups.
