First, credits to JAC & Drizzy, QTek, Cyanogen, Haykuro, twistedumbrella, CC, johnnylicious, others and of course XDA itself.
*Thanks to Reignzone for help in the thread.

BFS REPO - All are update patches. Just boot to recovery and flash, no wiping needed
BFS230 is the most stable, flash that if you are having prolonged problems.
After updating the Kernel, boot the device once fully, then reboot to recovery and run "fix uid mismatches"
http://www.4shared.com/dir/21215496/1cfad271/BFS_Patches.html
Patches
BFS-304 and most data from SENSE UI - compliments of ccyrowski and co. Thanks!
It is an update patch, DO NOT WIPE. (Btw, it's not mandatory)
Also BFS-304, just itself has been added to the repo.

TIPS TO HELP MAINTAIN YOUR DEVICE - MUST READ! - Thx Reignzone
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4734077&postcount=1729
Code:
* Set swappiness to 0 and the kernel is going to start swapping only when absolutely needed.
* Set swappiness to 100 and the kernel will preemtively swap out memory you are not using.
If swappiness is set to 0, swapping will occur when I start editing a big document or navigate to a big web page. So, while I will be able to jump from window to window pretty quickly, I’ll experience delays when using one of the memory-hungry applications intensively. Try yourself values of 0, 100 and a few values in between to see which best fits your particular use profile and understand how each one of them will affect swapping.
Great thread for configuring swap, USE IT! (I personally recommend swappiness of 30 or 40, but it depends on how fast your sd card is or how you use your device, so it could also be 100).

Does it have the same sms problem that other Hero roms have?

Haven't checked SMS, let me know.

Downloading now. Can't turn down another Hero ROM.

reboot in loop

Wifi fails to turn off. Similar problem that Qtek had with v1.1 of his rom.
1st txt I got came through, will let you know how it goes over the next day...
Cheers

SMS works fine. WiFi fails to turn on or off for me. This ROM definitely feels fast though. Are there any plans on doing a CompCache version? As with the Qtek ROM, it gets slower and slower as time goes on.

Wi-fi works, but sometimes you will need to restart since it hangs, not ideal I know. It does work, I promise.

hi,
this rom only in wwe?
can i install without partition sd?
thanks evil

format your ext2/ext3 as evil D described and it'll work. Some hero roms need a clean install.

any joy with bluetooth stereo on this? Getting ferd up with stock rom man, tried them all same problems no bluetooth audio with headsets.....

Few things I've noticed so far, seems speedy enough, stable. But...
Wifi on/off does work but only after resetting the phone, too much hassle
no led charge lights
no auto-rotation in texts/email apps
Get these sorted and you could be on to something nice here.

Thanks Roy. Will work on charge lights, but rotation works for me in mail apps, not messaging however.

great start point eVil will follow this one closely, once you get the small point sironed out its gunna rock

Only tried sending a couple texts to my magic from another phone and they both came in so assume for now that it works.

I just deleted the contents of my sd card, then put the update.zip on it.
Went into recovery mode as normal, wipe and then flash update.zip.
Worked a treat.

Can anyone tell me which languages there are for the UI and XT9 in this ROM? I don't want to be disappointed again with it being WWE only...
Thanks

[ROM] Soulife's Roger Remix V3.1 [Sept/29/2009] (small/fast)

Soulife's Roger Remix v3.1
Version 3 was completely rebuilt from scratch. I incorporated the new HTC update, as well as added mytouch support (sapphire 32b). This build will also fit any spl, so you need not worry about which spl you have or which version to download. Themes coming soon... (i hate not being themed)
(There's 2 builds available now. The regular will work with any spl, and the extended build has been "odexed". The odexed build should be slightly faster, and will also give you full space on your data partition. All themes that get developed will be for one or the other, and not compatible between the 2)
Yes, this will work on your mytouch (sapphire 32b), rogers, or dream/G1 device
Please check this thread by haykuro before flashing this on a rogers phone!!
To add all the ringtones, alarms, and notification sounds back on the phone download the sounds.zip file from download page, and add those 3 directories to the root of your sdcard. Viola, you now have audio.
Also hero and standard wallpapers are available for download.
This Build is constantly getting worked on, so looking at the change log to figure out what your getting can be confusing. So here it is in a nutshell...(as of September 29, 2009)
DO NOT RUN ANY OTHER APPS2SD APPLICATIONS ON THIS BUILD. YOU WILL BREAK YOUR SYSTEM. THEY ARE NOT NECESSARY BECAUSE THIS ROM WILL DO A2SD AUTOMATICALLY AND BETTER!
Built with Cyanogen's kernel and ramdisk (4.0.4)
(please, please visit his thread. a lot of those same rules apply here
i modified his a2sd script and ramdisk to be more suited for this build, also dalvik-cache stays on internal memory and not on sdcard when a2sd is active)
* UNIVERSAL! Runs on both Dream and Magic 32B
* Does not require "DangerSPL"
* Now identifies itself as either T-Mobile G1 or myTouch
* Enhanced ramdisk which uses optimal mount options and smart startup
* Includes E2FSProgs for checking and converting Ext filesystems
* Apps2SD is automatic! All you need is a second partition (ext).
* Includes script to upgrade to ext3 (from recovery mode, see FAQ)
* Supports ext2/ext3/ext4 for Apps2SD
* Clean filesystem shutdown at poweroff/reboot, and fsck at boot (no FS corruption!)
* Highly optimized kernel with many extra modules
* Maximum CPU scaling frequency set to 528MHz with latency tweaks
* Runs /system/sd/userinit.sh after A2SD setup and before starting the runtime for user scripts
* Compcache 0.6 enabled by default (if no userinit is present)
* Linux cgroups for better app prioritization
Optimized with JF build environment (adp)
Updated busybox (terminal)
Newest Google Maps app
"English - United States" comes up in locale
fix_permissions in bin (its called "fixperm" in this build) (terminal)
rwsystem and rosystem in bin (easily remount system as read/write or read only) (terminal)
changed a font that was bout 2mb bigger than normal
added powertop, htop, nano, and some other stuff (terminal)
added Browser enhancements from loccy
added MMS enhancements from rgv151
added OpenOBEX commandline tools ported by Erin Yueh (terminal)
added terminal
added spareparts
added ion's libhtc_ril.so (for 3G icon instead of H, HD quality in youtube)
added launcher in portrait mode has 5 x 4 icons, in landscape mode it has 6x3 icons
added allow protected downloads
added reboot function that works
added haykuro's apn list with updated apns
added man(ual) pages to bin (ex: man ls, man cp, etc.. in terminal to study busybox commands)
added voice search
removed all roger apps
removed Chinese ime
removed all foreign keyboard layouts
removed all but needed ringtones, alarms, notifications.
removed all but needed wallpapers.
fixed sms/mms issues (led's/missing txt's)
optimized all png's to cut down on size

optimized all apk's with zipalign

~no more pre-themed builds, porting more themes

~easopen in framework wasn't being called in the init.rc as it does in the original rogers phones... it does now (hope this fixes widgets sticking)

Because it's been modified from the rogers rom. In theory, if it works on a G1, it'll work on a rogers. He's just not guaranteeing it as it's not the device he has.

Installed, just applied the odex them. It's booting. I'll let ya know.
So if I try to flash my stock Rogers Dream... all I do is rename this to update.zip and do the flash procedure¿
I`m not suppose to flash the radio or spl due that they don`t work on the Rogers Dream.
You'll have to root first.
Just installed. First impressions, great theme rework. Funny thing is, it's basically what I've always used prior to going to rogers. So far, everything seems quick, as expected with a Rogers rom.

[Rom] Soulife's ION Remix v1.2.2 [7/13/09]

READ THE DAMN POST PEOPLE, THE MAJORITY OF QUESTION I GET ARE ANSWERED RIGHT HERE!!!
Remember it's good practice to wipe before coming to a new build. 9 out of 10 problems are because you probably didn't wipe when coming from another build (as in one that's not mine). Also, hero is great for polluting your /system/sd directory. And a lot of developers are installing stuff on the data partition. So if you have a2sd and you flash a rom that installs stuff on data, it will reinstall itself when you come to another a2sd enabled build. Which could cause problems. Just a few things I want everyone to remember. Flash away...
This Build is constantly getting worked on, so looking at the change log to figure out what your getting can be confusing. So here it is in a nutshell...(as of July 12, 2009)
Two different versions now available. Regular for those with the "original" spl and Extended for the "special" spl.
To add ringtones, alarms, and notification sounds back on the phone download the resources.zip file from download page, and add those 3 directories to the root of your sdcard. Viola, you now have audio.
DO NOT RUN ANY OTHER APPS2SD APPLICATIONS ON THIS BUILD. YOU WILL BREAK YOUR SYSTEM. THEY ARE NOT NECESSARY BECAUSE THIS ROM WILL DO A2SD AUTOMATICALLY AND BETTER!
Built with Cyanogen's kernel and boot.img (3.6.5)
(please, please visit his thread. a lot of those same rules apply here)
(dalvik-cache stays internal)
* Enhanced ramdisk which uses optimal mount options and smart startup
* Includes E2FSProgs for checking and converting Ext filesystems
* Apps2SD is automatic! All you need is a second partition.
* Includes script to upgrade to ext3
* Supports ext2/ext3/ext4 for Apps2SD
* Clean filesystem shutdown at poweroff/reboot, and fsck at boot (should stop FS corruption)
* Highly optimized kernel with many extra modules
* Tweaked frequency scaling options to be more responsive
* Maximum CPU scaling frequency set to 528MHz
* Runs /system/sd/userinit.sh after A2SD setup and before starting the runtime for user scripts
added cyanogens settings app to allow showing ext2/3/4 partition available space
Optimized with JF build environment
New default theme
Updated busybox (1.14.2)
Newest Google Maps app (3.1.1)(extended)
More locals than just "English - United States" (not all work)
fix_permissions in bin (its called "fixperm" in this build)
rwsystem and rosystem in bin (so you dont have to type "busybox mount -o rw,remount /system" to modify something)
added pdf viewer
added quickoffice 1.0.1
odex re-optimized for this build (extended)
added htc-ime (extended)
stericson music player from hero
stericsons lock screen
Rogers camera and gallery

fixed market force close after uninstall (extended)

- removed all but needed ringtones, notifications, alarms
- removed amazon mp3
to do
odex some critical apk's for regular version (speed boost)
maybe give you guys 5 home screens (it takes up more memory and i wont use the extra screens, so its not worth it to me yet)
maybe remove homescreen auto-rotation (some find it annoying)
re-odex framework. i need to find the right sequence or ill get stale nfs bullsh*t. i have little patience.
put overclock widget as seperate download with custom artwork to match theme
make a default theme template for extended version (im lazy and dont wanna re-odex yet, although its only a few apk's)
known issues
theme - status bar icons are barely visible on white background
theme - highlighted dialer is "weird" on the left side (damned *.9.png files, i need eclipse)
theme - the alien dude has something in his eye
adjusting ringer volume in settings will throw a FC
CREDITS
Haykuro provided the initial build
Haykuro provided hero build (where i got some artwork from)
Cyanogen provided the kernel, boot.img, a2sd method, settings.apk, e2fsck tools, new busybox, concepts, etc....
Stericson provided lockscreen, HTCmusic from hero, white clock
Manup456 provided A LOT of the artwork you see
MOONSSPOON for artwork
ultra spikey for artwork
(playing with ion i've come to realize that its not what is in ion that makes it fast, its what's not in it if you ever read dalvikvm from ion for speed, laugh, unless every single build has started using it, it is the same as on a stock g1 )
Builds
http://www.mediafire.com/soulife
Resources.zip & HTC-IME & Default theme (only regular at the moment)
http://drop.io/soulife

It takes almost 10 minutes to get pass the second bootscreen. So give it time.
NOTE to the Developer: why is the pull up tab for the app tray so low on the screen. pretty hard to tap with it so low
Nevermind. Got it working.
Anybody know what icon pack that is? Hoping there's one in the market for bettercut so I can match 'em up.
if ur still tryna find out how to change the resolution(dpi) in Gimp, I found this

[ROM] KiNgxKxROM Version 1.9 "Not My Goodies" <10/17/09> 8:30pm PST

Video of v1.9 in action: http://bit.ly/2cmlY4
Ok guys so just as I promised, a recomiled Hero ROM with a few different bases. This ROM is COMPLETELY FULL. Tell me if you would like something added and I will be glad to do so. A "lite" version may also be in store. I implemented a lot of speed boosters, tell me this isn't a blistering quick ROM. THIS IS FASTER THAN THE ORIGINAL MoDaCo 2.2. If you don't believe me, give this a flash.
NOTE: First boot takes awhile, and when you first turn on your phone its a little slow for 30 seconds or so. This is mostly due to the amount of widgets set up and resources being hogged. Remove whatever widgets dont tickle your fancy, this should speed things up
Changelog will be on the next post.
REQUIREMENTS:
1. Haykuro's "death" spl
2. Latest Radio (Both can be found here: http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/)
3. 3 Partitions in this order: Fat32, Ext 1/2/3/4, Linux-Swap
4. Class 6 sd card (like every other Hero ROM)
5. Cyanogen's Recovery image 1.3.1+
If you're having problems wiping or installing apps from the market:
Code:
# mount -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd
(enter)
# rm -rf /system/sd/*
(enter)
# rm -rf /system/data/*
(enter)
# reboot recovery

Please give me FEEBACK! Devs are nothing without feedback!
Without further ado!

support another new rom coming up
anyway is the death spl really *required*?
as I'm with 32A and I've flashed to many other 32B roms (evil's, maxisma's and Hero3G) and patch a working 32A kernel over it without any problem, and the resulting rom is very fast indeed.
I wonder could I do the same to this rom...it would be fun to try out new rom

shouldnt be NECESSARY
i mightve missed this, but is it 32a or b?
this is for 32B
sorry for a question that maybe out of topic
is 32B and 32A technically different? Coz I just read that HeroLED wouldn't support magic because the "pathing" to the led lits are different so it's only for dream/G1 phones, correct me if I'm mistaken.
p/s: I've personally tried HeroLED211.apk on 32A with Maxisma Hero1.8 and it does not work(read: no LED/trackball flashes continuously on sms/miss call) even after a reboot and everything checked inside its preferences.
anyone can enlighten me would be VERY MUCH appreciated
Edit: wrong forum
Hey King on the next update can include voicedial and voice search. I see it works on Evil roms Thanks
ok, just flashed and my auto orientation doesn't work....do i need the bfs 230 for this to work or what did i do wrong? im pretty familiar with flashing n all that, thanks.
*UPDATE* works now....don't know if it was from flashing bfs 230 or just from a reboot, but all is good....just the led issue, even using the hero led. any ideas to led's?
I would like to see all the Sprint apps like Sprint Navigation and Sprint TV on this ROM and then I would flash it... looks good so far though...
Hmm, as opposed to KNEX81, my led blinks in green+trackball flashes continuously when sms arrives, and trackball flashes continuously when there is missed call(s).
however...for me the charging LED doesn't work
-once I turned off my phone, the LED shows orange (charging)
-if I switch my phone on, the LED just goes away
-when it's fully charge, the LED does show green in color.
any idea why?? thanks this is the only ROM that makes my trackball works, cheers!!!
Hi king,
the author of HeroLED has confirmed that his apk only work for Dream/G1(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4772739&postcount=106) and I had removed it from my ROM everything (trackball/LED) still work fine without it.
anyway as mentioned above, charging LED doesn't work when usb plugged in and Missed Reminder couldn't change the LED blinking color for incoming SMS.
it would be VERY VERY cool if you can fix these.MANY THANKS!!!!!!

[ROM][32B] ::HTC Sense:: RZR v1.2 and SuperLite Series ("The Essentials") [10/31]

[ROM][32B] ::HTC Sense:: RZR v1.2 and SuperLite Series ("The Essentials") [10/31]
O.K. folks, here's the details:
This ROM is a customized assortment of various builds that you can find in both the Dream development section; not to mention within the Sapphire section as well. I will issue credit where it's appropriate for each "source" of included material such as; visual alterations, applications, optimization, and kernels.
I've decided to use the "Evil Hero" series for the basis of my work. "eViL D:" has courteously provided our community with his hard work and dedication for the past several months. I'm merely an "apprentice" who has learned some "tricks of the trade". Now, having said that; the current build version [1.0] is considered to be "STABLE". THIS IS NOT A SPEED-BASED ROM! I have created this for ideal DAILY USAGE; nothing more.
I'd like to formally offer my thanks and show appreciation to the following people:
eViL D:, ccyrowski, JAC, eugene373, MLIGN, Stericson, Cyanogen, TwistedUmbrella, Amon_RA, and of course...last but not least, Drizzy.
WHAT'S SUGGESTED & REQUIRED TO UTILIZE THIS BUILD PROPERLY?
Here's my list of suggestions and/or requirements for this version to function properly on your device:
HTC Sapphire or T-Mobile MyTouch 3G. (32B)
1.33.2005 or 1.33.2009 SPL choices.
Class 6 microSDHC (The MB sizes are irrelevant)
Amon_RA's latest recovery image.
FAT32 / EXT2 or higher / Linux Swap partition (96MB +)
(Blah, blah, blah...I could go on for days in regards to this topic.)
Alright, so now that the "usual" statements have been made; here's what you can expect from the RZR series:
Magic "HTC Sense" build version - 3.03.751.4 series.
2.6.29.6 JAC-ski [email protected] #5 (BFS-230) for STABILITY.
FULL-FEATURED BUILD; which includes ALL of the original system applications.
Completely optimized system applications; including the widgets.
NON-A2SD version.
GPS & Wi-Fi are 100% functional.
v7.0 "SUPER LOUD" AUDIO HACK (release 2) Generation Files.
Bluetooth can PAIR; but not generate audio via HEADSET. Microsoft Sync (Stereo Bluetooth) does work.
LED notifications are 100% functional as well; including various colors.
Multilingual capabilities.
"Reignzone's PERSONAL" user.conf - (COMPCACHE IS DISABLED / LINUX-SWAP IS ENABLED BY DEFAULT!)
NO CPU FREQUENCY SAMPLING OR VIRTUAL MEMORY SUBSTITUTION BY DEFAULT! (USE THE OVERCLOCK WIDGET!)
For a "boost in performance"; ODEX your applications via ADB with this command: adb shell sh system/bin/userinit.sh
Semi-transparent lockscreen and notification tray.
ALL original "HTC" and MOTOBLUR wallpapers.
ALL original ringtones & notifications from T-Mobile and HTC.
MMS prioritizing available.
There are several "personal touches" included for added functionality.
"Unlogged" HTC_IME.
[More to come soon...]
I AM NOT, CANNOT, AND/OR WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE; UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES FOR DAMAGE YOU MAY POTENTIALLY CAUSE TO YOUR DEVICE!

WHAT'S TO COME IN FUTURE RELEASES?
Here's what I'll be working on for v1.5:
Options for custom boot animation sequences.
MORE OPTIMIZATION!
HTC News & Horoscope widgets.
A2SD version! (pending requests...)
Twisted's black HTC Dialer.
Texture & transparent notification tray.
OPhone or Huawei Pulse notification bar.
BFS patches.
Upgraded kernels.
32A motherboard support.
AND MUCH, MUCH MORE!
Here are the OVERCLOCK WIDGET user settings that are insisted on while using this ROM:
SCREEN ON FREQ = Minimum of 384MHz / Maximum of 528MHz
(For battery preservation) Enable the use of "different frequencies" while the screen is hibernating.
SCREEN OFF FREQ = Minimum of 245MHz / Maximum of 384MHz
ADVANCED SETTINGS: Adjust the "Update Interval" to either FIVE or TEN seconds for the most efficient results.
[DO NOT FORGET TO ENABLE THE "SUPPRESS NOTIFICATIONS" FEATURE!]
OPERATION SETTINGS: ENABLE the "Auto Start On Boot" function; immediately afterwards, select SAVE!
There is one minor bug I'm working on patching for the next release that involves the "last screen display" that momentarily appears after every reboot; RIGHT BEFORE the boot animation initializes!
For those of you who may need guidelines to following in case you're flashing a Hero ROM for the first time; here's my "Tip & Tricks 101" strategy guide:
PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE REPORTING ISSUES!
If you have comments, questions, suggestions, or concerns...be sure to submit them here in a semi-formal fashion. Thank you.
thank you boss cant wait to try it
Great job, Reignzone,can you cook a 32A's version?
no a2sd yet??? want to flash but will wait of it... ... but thanks for the hard work!
Good to see you start your own Rom. A little friendly competition among roms is good for the community.I definitely will be trying yours out. 1.5 looks very promsing...
Very interesting...testing out Eugene's Magic build for a day or two, but 1.5 looks promising.
does bluetooth/wifi/gps work?
is there a call delay?
Tested on 32B, fat32+96MB swap, class 2 SD:
Works nice, but it loads home (htc screen) every time I leave an app, I'll try with 128MB swap. This was happening me, but less times, with MLIGN's Sense and 32MB swap, and none at all with Maxisma's and 96MB swap.

A: Yes, very soon. I'm going to hopefully be working with a few guys that "specialize" in 32A kernels and BFS backports.

A: It's a simple upgrade. In fact, if you really wanted to you could edit the "a2sd" script in the system/bin to enable it by default. Either way, I plan to release an A2SD version IF the demand is significant.

A: View the progression log and read carefully. Thanks. As for the "call delay", it's minimal if any at all. I've made several test phone calls to my device and haven't experienced any outrageous latency.

A: The reason their builds do NOT produce a loading screen "out of the box" is because they have both CompCache and Linux-Swap enabled by default. I DO NOT! Also, their user.conf files are probably using some form of CPU frequency sampling automatically upon reboot initiation. Mine once more; is NOT! The Overclock widget is the BEST possible alternative for that. It offers more user settings for sampling your frequency to your likeness at any given time. Not to mention, that saves virtually everyone time for NOT having to edit their user.conf files, remount, then push them via ADB, and reboot. Once you've overclocked my ROM...it's incredibly snappy.

Ok, sorry
Installed swapper and OC widget, now it works really well
I flashed with 60 swapiness, and after 80, with a 96Mb partition, and it is very very slow...loading screen after each launched apk, things that i didn't have with Eugene Rom..
i don't think you can say this rom require 96mb+ swap, because it depend of the user..the rom works better with 32mb and 40 mb swapiness!
I'll change to TTran rom when new release will be Out.

That's great, but can I ask for a option to disable Swap on 32A version?
Very articulated well written intro Reighzone. If anything I at least enjoyed reading it.

The reason you had the loading screens is because I HAVE SWAP ENABLED BY DEFAULT. And it's running with 80% swappiness. Therefore, you doubled-up on the swap space that was available to you...which is never a good thing. That can freeze, crash, and boggle down your device in a matter of hours. YOU NEED TO OVERCLOCK this ROM with either SetCPU or Overclock widget. I recommend Overclock widget, as I've told others...it's NOT overclocked by default. Once you've actually done that, this will really start moving for you.
I don't have CompCache enabled by default. Again, this isn't a speed-based ROM. It's designed to be one of the only builds that does NOT cause a random reboot during usage or be unable to "wake" from the "sleep state".
And YES, the size of the Linux Swap partition DOES matter. The larger the swap space; the more room there is for your device to substitute that designated area for reading and writing of data. I have a 200MB swap partition...and I've shot YouTube videos to prove this...but there is NO LAG whatsoever with my particular settings. NONE! No loading screens, nothing like that at all.
Hi Reignzone,

I haven't had any reported issues on that. Also...I've tested it personally, and it seems to work just fine. It went off this morning, although...it's my day off this week; so I slept through it. I saw the notification this morning when I finally rolled out of bed.
I'll tell you what though; to spare any possible "late for work" type of issues for people...I'm going to release another Apps Pack today that will include a couple of choices for an alarm clock.

I ask this because my alarm didn't work this afternoon. I set up the alarm to ring at 3:30 on 2:30 (I didn't use my phone in this duration), but one hour later, the alarm didn't ring at all. It seems not work after a long stand by period. I'll keep testing see if my assumption is right. Everything works greatly except the alarm issue. Thank you.
autostarts app
get an immediate FC when opening this anybody else experience the same?
Hi there Reignzone, just wanted to say that i'm keeping an eye on your RZR rom haven't used it yet cause eViL's v3sr3 is working like a charm for a couple of days now.
Will maybe try out yours next week, or when you've gotten a newer version with stable new kernel(s).
Still i think it is a great job you've done by making your own rom. Nice work!

Yes, it's because the application MUST have it's permissions fixed. Also, don't hesitate to fix package mismatches...then reboot; after that, the application will work like a charm. Trust me. If there's any force closing at all during your system operation, reboot into recovery, fix permissions...then fix package mismatches.
I HAVE NOT experienced a SINGLE force close for anything yet. I've been using my build for about 30 hours now. I'm still yet to reboot...and it's STILL quite fast, fluid, and reliable. No screen lock issues, no black screens, no random reboots.

[ROM] DamageControl v3.2.x | Check post #2 for updates this week!

DamageControl v3.1.2 - http://www.damagedroms.com
FULL Flash support, JIT, DConfig, Bug Reporter, ROM Manager, 4G, much more
I am proud to present DamageControl ROM for the HTC Evo! The ROMs our team releases are always focused on stability, speed, and ease of use. My partner, TrevE and I, continue to present ROMs that are easy to update through an application that is bundled with the ROM, DCUpdater (based upon cm-updater). We also have bundled applications that let you modify advanced Android settings as well as other applications that will let you customize advanced settings of the ROM.
Another application that we bundle is an application that lets you submit bugs. This way, you can get personal help in problems you have with the ROM!
We usually release new ROMs every two-to-three weeks.
We have found that with our tweaks, that battery life has greatly improved. From our results, we have had much more than sufficient battery life. We have also sped some things up a bit, and made other small tweaks.

Mirror http://www.4shared.com/file/0Qsusd3V/DamageControlv323_deodexed.html
LWP FIX - &postcount=4676
-Newer versions of System APK including youtube (fixes hd issue), 3D Gallery with multitouch EVERYWHERE, rotation, and camera resolution limit removed + MORE!
-updated wifitether to 2.0.5-pre2 (infrastructure mode) and moved to data for easy updates
-Added new option in dconfig to renice system processes. Causes important stuff to be last to be swapped out, makes for lower ring delay/mms delay when phones sleeping and less cpu load if it is swapped out and needed.
Its a ghetto implementation right now, it runs it on first boot only. If processes DO get killed/startup with different PID settings go away.
-New battery saver profile. If you had this profile before you will be shunted down to usercofig. Resave with battery saver to use new settings.
-DConfig backend work
-Fixed some symlinks

-JIT Stability fixes. Its still not perfect but getting better:
Using gr0gmint's new modified JIT dll's (thank man). This may work with sense but its way more stable without. More @ ?t=684535
(for this build JIT is always visable next to the profile dropdown. Be careful with it, kinda gotta rethink how this form looks/works.
If you enable JIT use the checkbox on the mainscreen, choose a battery profile & press reset. It will configure your heap & banned apps for you. If you still have JIT issues try boosting heap in DConfig up to 48m)
-Apps2SD - Disabled by default, but Apps & Dalvik moves to sd are supported in this build, read post 2 for everything you need to know. Audio & Text to sd build has been given out to testers. (coming soon)
-Updated DConfig to include options for Apps2SD. Also has profile & banned apps fixes
--Dconfig may work again on hero/other devices with a few dc.conf changes (needs testing)
-Even more battery and performance tweaks along with many backend stability fixes in initial boot script.
-Fixes fsck error checking on boot
-Fixed HTC Widget Download issue with deodexed
-Updated Geniewidget

-enhanced banned apps code a bit. Should allow for more advanced configurations soon.
============
PreReqs
============
This rom assumes you are fully rooted with nand unlocked. If you bootloop after flashing try wiping & reflashing. If that doesnt work MAKE SURE YOU ARE NAND UNLOCKED.
I used toast2of2 method, you can do whatever you are comfortable with. Guys over at androidpolice did a writeup on how to flash using DC as an example - Read it here
Also we assume you have nandroided. This is a saving grace if things go wrong. If you have no clue what i just said webs05 wrote a guide over at ?t=710513
========================
4G INFO/HOW TO FLASH
========================
Because DC 3.2.2 or higher is built on OTA update you MUST have proper radio/wimax to use. You should only have to flash with witslacks method ONCE before going to 3.2.2 or higher. If you are already on 3.2.2+ with working 4g just flash update.zip as normal. DC update.zips or nandroids will not touch radios so theory is once your good your good.
Do not flash update.zip's to update radio or wimax itll just give you more problems than its worth. If you used them previously you may also continue to have issues. These are the radio's fault, not DC's. Witslacks PC36IMG-1.47.651.1_eng-hboot_RA-1.7.0.1.zip has been tested/confirmed over and over and the only thing id use.
Instructions-
If you are coming from a previous version of DC make a nandroid backup first. Then follow witslacks method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715915
After you follow his WHOLE process boot to a recovery console. Just use that to flash the DC zip, or restore your nandroid (wont touch radios) After you flash DC update profile/PRL and enjoy 4g.
If you are stuck scanning for 4g
go into adb shell
ls /data/misc/wimax/
look for a file with your macaddress ending in .tree.xml. we want to move that to another location so it gets regenerated.
mv /data/misc/wimax/macaddress.tree.xml /data/misc/wimax/macaddress.tree.xml.orig
-If you still have 4g problems:
see this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7020516&postcount=3826 You must verify all your MAC addresses are sane. Also your Username/Pass must be valid.
To give us a 4g error report:
-First tell us if your MAC address has _EVER_ been broken or you used update.zips to update radios
-Have you ran witslacks starting over method?
-What patches have been applied?
-Have you verified your username/password is OK from the above section?
-Have you tried shutting wifi and 4g off, rebooting, then turning just 4g on?
- turn 4g off. reboot the phone. run
adb logcat
and grab everything from turning your radio on to where it fails to connect.
- now run
adb shell dmesg
grab the end output from that where 4g turns on. (sequansd stuff)
- now do
adb shell
# ls -l /data/misc/wimax/
find the .tree file. What are your permissions on it? (information on left hand side before file name)

====================
Known Issues
====================
this has been stated over 9000 times YOU MUST BE FULLY NAND UNLOCKED TO USE THIS!! If you arent you will have bootloops/other issues.
*Lockscreen - When you remove HTCLockscreen the vanilla one is broken up to 3.2.3. Proper fixes are now in DCUpdater
*DCUpdater FC will occur if you have your SDCard mounted or it cannot write to the fat32 partition for some reason. Just unmount your card.
*Clockwork Recovery - clockwork recovery does not play nice with dcupdater. You will end up in a different part of recovery with a green arrow or android guys skating.
If your using clockwork just press update later after dcupdater downloads update reboot into recovery and manually apply the update from /sdcard/dcupdater/updates
*JIT Stability. Working better in 3.2.1+ let me know how latest is.
*Themes from 3.2.1 and previous may not work in 3.2.2. They will cause a com.htc.bg crash.
*Wireless N in 3.2.2+ its enabled by default by sprint. DO NOT ENABLE THIS OPTION IN DCONFIG OR WIFI WILL NOT WORK
====================
Odex vs Deodex
====================
Theres plenty of debate over what is faster/better to use, im not going to take sides in this one. This is just information about what the differences in the two are, try for yourself.
Deodex basically takes the odex file and stuffs it into the apk as a classes.dex. First boot it dissembles the file into /dalvik-cache (i believe). Now there is basically 2 copies of the odex, one in the apk one in cache. This makes it "portable". This allows modders to work on the apks & easily change stuff. If you want themes or stuff like lockscreen fixes you MUST use Deodex.
Odex is how things come stock. It takes up less room but making modifications or taking apks from other roms is hard. You cannot use themes with this version!! To see odex in dcupdater you must go to menu -> configuration -> rom update settings -> display all roms & display experimental roms. Its marked experimental to avoid confusion because themes in dcupdater will not work with it.
DC 3.2 after fresh wipe without setting sync accts up and no a2sd:
Odex - 374 MB free
Deodex - 329 MB free
====================
General Stuff
====================
-Themes are trickling into DCUpdater. They will only work with the DEODEXED rom. Same with lockscreen fix.
-Firstboot script will cause phone to sit on white HTC EVO 4G screen if you are upgrading for a few minutes. Watch logcat if your paranoid.
-Do not use SetCPU if you are on the stock HTC kernel (perflock on kernel) it will just cause issues. If you have a modded one go ahead
-No need for taskkillers with lowmemkiller. Really just cause more issues than their worth.
-If your accounts & sync FC after upgrading from another rom you can try to do the following but be warned you will need to resync everything
Code:
adb remount
adb shell rm /data/system/accounts.db
adb reboot
Hackvan sent me a heads up to a fix that does not require you to resync from thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7159566
Code:
adb shell
cd /data/system
echo 'delete from accounts where type LIKE "com.htc%";' |sqlite3 accounts.db
-it really helps us if you can reproduce FC's to restart phone, reproduce issue without doing anything else first then use send bug report.
-this rom has so many configurations now its hard to keep up. When posting an issue please make sure you have checked post 2 & be as detailed as possible
(Deodexed/Odexed/DConfig Settings/Skins or other Update.zips applied)
============
Powertop
============
powertop will also reveal stuff hogging wakeups. The less wakeups you have the better battery life will be.
The main thing you will want to diagnose is wakeups when the screen is off and the phone idle. Shut your screen off when connected to usb and wait about 30 seconds, then run
Code:
adb shell dcpowertop
Your wakeups should be around 50-80. If your higher than that you could have a problem. If you see something there in question try to run the following to find what apk the thread belongs to:
adb shell top -n 1 -t

==============
Other Battery Tips
==============
-If you wipe data to start new with rom you are also wiping your battery stats so things can get out of whack. Cyanogen has a good howto on battery calibration
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Troubleshooting#Battery_recalibration
-Turn off rotation. the akm8973 driver seems to be a hog when screen is on. even tho i loved rotation in helix i get much better battery life with it off.
-If you sync stuff constantly try jumping on wifi where possible. Also 4g is a powerhog keep it off if not using it.
-in accounts and sync disable background data if you dont have any mission critical data that sync.
-Make sure you are not at 100% awake time. in settings -> about phone -> battery the awake time should be less than up time (unless your plugged into usb). If its the same wipe data reflash and add your apps one by one.
-The battery use screen in 'settings -> about phone -> battery' is a bit limited. Things like a high time without a signal can cause battery drain.
-I also like checking the the "advanced" battery use screen. Open a dialer and dial the code below. Then go to battery history. Partial wake usage usually shows more information on whats hogging wake. Sensor/GPS/Network/CPU is also revealing sometimes, these all eat battery.
Code:
*#*#4636#*#*
-Use an app such as OSMonitor from market to check out whats using CPU in realtime
-Apply battery saver config in dconfig. If its too slow for you turn the sampling rate down one.
============
Themes
============
- Here is a preview of just some of the items in dcupdater. we will link back to the original themers thread below if you have problems with the theme start there.
More will be coming, if you want to see your themes here or in DCUpdater contact me!
-I have done a bunch of lockscreen fixes. They are now in DCUpdater. They should be 100% working now. We have rotary lockscreens with time and without and the regular vanilla lockscreen. Right now the versions only will show your desktop background (lwp included) there will be a cleared version shortly.
*Konikub has done a bunch of awesome themes. His full color themes for dc is over @ ?t=706333 Great stuff from the hero days. He also has a white taskbar theme to flashontop of Aloysis and an Espresso theme!
*GODZSON did some clear HTCClockWidget's over @ ?p=6542626&postcount=4
*MRPuffin made a AOSP theme over @ ?t=710162
*michd did a DC transparent XDA keyboard mod @ &postcount=2030

These are for people who know what they are doing. Please dont even attempt to use this if you dont know what they do. YOU ARE FLASHING THESE AT YOUR OWN RISK DONT BLAME ME WHEN YOU NEED TO WIPE OR WORSE YOUR DEVICE EXPLODES! If you read this and think freekin sweet these kernels are for you. If your scared just continue on and DO NOT FLASH.
DO NOT flash any kernel that has not been specifically modded for DC. It WILL cause issues, especially with wifi and or DConfig (it will look like it makes changes but nothing will happen)
Stock Kernels-
(these are here incase you want to go back to stock dc after flashing a modded kernel. They are not needed otherwise. they should fully revert any custom kernel/modules/wifi)
OTA DC Kernel with firmware & modules (DC 3.2.2 and higher 2.6.29-789bf291)

PRE OTA DC Kernel (from DC 3.2.1 and lower) - http://dl.damagedroms.com/3.0/OriginalStock_dc_kernel_signed.zip
Modded Kernels- These have just been patched to work with DC. Please direct any questions to the kernel cooker.
Netarchy has a new kernel for nova or epson screens. From his first post Revision 3.6.2b - Damage Control Compatible build Looked sane to me:

Flash stuff
=================
Flash 10.1 is def a hack but sites that would not load before will. shots of flash playing justin.tv & adobe mobile 10.1 test vids:

Also tested a few "Adult entertainment" sites that did not work before with success.
To increase flash compatibility we found playing with these to help:
-Go to url bar
-delete everything even http:// enter
about:debug
-press menu go to settings
-turn off mobile view
-go to UAString
-set to desktop

DConfig Guide
====================
**DCONFIG IS GETTING A MAKEOVER. EXCUSE THE SLOPPY LOOKS FOR NOW**
Dconfig has been redone for release 3.1, for those of you that are new to this it allows you to customize many settings usually not visible to the end user. You can kill your battery fast or put it into a powersaving mode at the expense of performance or anything in between. This will help you choose the right settings for yourself. Alot has changed since this project began - If you want to read more about where dconfig started from or about the backend(alittle outdated but still pretty right) you can checkout the original post ?t=670098
Dconfig home:
-Performance Profiles. These are a new option to set up the Advanced Tweak settings with some defaults ive tested with. It will overwrite your settings there.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Dconfig Apps2SD:
Controls app2sd settings on boot. To get this to work you must have a SD card formatted with at least a ext/fat32 partition. Swap can be set to 0 unless you want swapping (not really needed on evo)
EXT2 vs EXT3 - Journeling. wiki it, Is it really needed? probably not
Move Apps- Disabled by default. moves /data/app/ and /data/app-private/ to /system/sd/app & app-private. May impact battery life slightly. You can confirm its enabled by running the following:
adb shell
cd /data/app/
pwd
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It should return /system/sd/app/
Move Dalvik- Disabled by default.
Do not enable unless you have a faster SD card. You may get random reboots if your card is too slow
This moves /data/dalvik-cache/ to /system/sd/dalvik-cache. Dalvik-cache is usually somewhere between 50 - 100mb. Seems to have a more significant battery impact than just moving apps.
adb shell
cd /data/dalvik-cache/
pwd
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It should return /system/sd/dalvik-cache/
Move Texts- Moves textmessage DB to /system/sd/. Nice because you can wipe and keep texts.
Move Audio- Moves ringtones off to /system/sd/. I prefer this method rather than putting them on fat32 partition because they still work if you have SD mounted and get a call.
*Things to think about with A2SD*
If your using a2sd & wipe your /data/partition and not your EXT you could run into problems with permissions on /data/app-private/ apps. After wipe of data & flash if you bootloop try to wipe your protected apps and just redownload them from market
adb remount
adb shell rm /data/app-private/*
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
IF the above doesnt work you win a ext wipe.
Dconfig Basic:
*options here are generally considered "safe".
Zipalign- is recommended. Gives a nice boost with loading apps and when loading app icons (scrolling through app tray and on main screen)
SD swapping adds swap ram- evo probably shouldnt enable this.
DalvikHeap- Stock evo is 24, 32 is what i use it on mainly, 48 is probably not needed. Space java objects are stored, has a direct effect on how much RAM apps use.
LowMemKiller - Eliminates need for taskkillers. Lets android system close out of apps when RAM gets low, 150MB seems to be a nice spot.
Wireless N - Enables or disables chuckhriczko wireless N patch. May consume more battery
Dconfig Advanced:
*These options all effect low level stuff. Play with caution:
JIT - Just in Time compilation- Speeds CPU execution up quite a bit on evo but does not play well with all apps. See the JIT section below for instructions.
UpThreshold- % Where the CPU clocks up to the next speed. 95% is default and saves battery. If you go lower CPU will clock up faster so performance will be better but faster cpu == lower battery life.
SamplingRate- How often the CPU checks load. lower number checks more often so system will be more peppy when cpu is needed but checking more often drains battery faster.
DirtyBG/Dirty ratio - what % of memory can get dirty before writing it out. Higher the % the more battery will last because kernel is writing less often. I have not played much with higher values but would not go much more than say 10/20.
DirtyWriteback/DirtyExpire - How often to check for dirty stuff. 1500/600 seems good.
Advanced part2
Laptop_Mode-Tries to delay kernel buffer disk activities as long as possible. Still trying to confirm if our kernel supports it, turn it on if you want to test
vfs_cache_pressure- Lower trys to retain dentry and inodes. Higher flushes them. 100 is fair balance. We have not found a sweet spot yet, but try testing between 10 - 40.
OOM Kill allocating Task - If checked kernel will kill task causing OOM events. If unchecked it will kill other processes to make way for the hog. Havent played with this much..
Banned apps:
Lets you customize whats loaded in the rom. Moves stuff you dont want to /system/app/dcbanned/ After your comfortable with results if your sure you never want to go back you can
Code:
adb remount
adb shell rm -r /system/app/dcbanned/
When you first ban sense it will check off all sense components on the screen. You can uncheck additional components as you wish.
Some Things to think about
When you ban the HTCLockScreen default is to ban worldclock as well and unban Deskclock (if checked) Reason is if you use the vanilla lockscreen with an alarm in worldclock you will be unable to disable your alarm. As anything else you can enable it if you really want.
If you ban friendstream but not facebook you must turn off "Sync Live Feed" in settings -> Accounts and Sync -> Facebook for HTC Sense or else you will perma sync.
JIT Section
Just too much info about JIT so ill move it down here.
*There are some apps that may not work with JIT, that is why this is under advanced. If your not experienced do not use this.*
nebenezer posted some good recomended settings for JIT over at &postcount=4143
-JIT uses more memory i would recommend bumping dalvik heap up to atleast 32.
-JIT & banned apps. These are the recommended settings. They will be set automatically if you turn JIT on in the profiles screen, choose a performance option in dropdown and press apply. Just reboot after. If you do it yourself in advanced these options will NOT be set you will have to do it
Code:
Sense,
HTC Lockscreen,
DCUpdater (causes some hang in system on startup :( )
HTC Worldclock,
All sprint apps
Twitter and friendstream for sure (facebook seems to be ok).
-To Test if JIT is on:
few ways to do it, my favorite is to run the following then open up some applications. You should see "Total arena pages for JIT:" followed by a number scroll by as apps open.
adb shell
logcat|grep JIT
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
-If you end up crashing hard you can disable JIT with:
Code:
adb remount
adb shell rm /data/data/com.damaged.DConfig/dc.conf
Linpaq:
Glad to see you both are developing for the evo. Loved you r roms on the hero
Oooooo snap, Ima have to check this out fo sho. Thanks for all the hard work!
Oooo I will definitely be trying this, I flashed DamageControl on my sister's Hero, flawless
Damn and I just flashed Fresh's Rom...lol I will give it a couple of days but I really want this one...I guess that's what Nandroid is for LOL .
Re: [ROM] DamageControl v3.0 | Fast, Improved battery life, tweaks
When you, announced you ditched hero I went out and bought a evo. Downloading now

wow. this excites me. props damage.
Let the games begin....I think all the devs are going to be on the evo .....
on this **** like white on rice...are you gonna add it to rom manager\ as well
looks like goodness
You have been "getting married soon" forever. Good way to get people to donate though. Either do it or don't man. (I recommend "don't")

As a married man myself, I once gave a friend a paper shredder for his wedding. The note on the box of the shredder said. "I wanted you to have a safe place to store your marriage license" she was not amused.
Glad to see you making the switch to the Evo! Running your final Hero rom on my Hero, and a overclock ... and it is amazing.
My only request was to have the Espresso theme ported over. I know Treve had a release that worked prior to your final Hero rom.
If you need to use my mirror still let me know.
Im so glad to see damage on here here. along with flip along with eveyrone else from the HTC Hero days.. Damage roms are always great. with great battery life..
I know those that rooted with the other meth is really pissed right now..
Re: [ROM] DamageControl v3.0 | Fast, Improved battery life, tweaks
This is just amazing¡ just booted it off the bat I noticed it fixed my scrolling lag that was killing me before. I cant wait to give the battery a test tomorrow.
Do we need to calibrate battery in recovery like we did on hero?

I just wet myself!
good to see more of the hero guys over here
Ditto, Do you guys consider a caching to SD version of GMaps (brute) stable enough to include in your rather elite rom
Re: [ROM] DamageControl v3.0 | Fast, Improved battery life, tweaks
Wow after using this a bit I can easily sau this is best rom ive tried so far everyone else just shuffled programs around you can actually feel performance increase on this
