Blackwood is a fast, lean rom based on the new AT&T official 1.62 ROM. Blackwood includes many new updated drivers, a faster (actually usable) camera, better video performance, quicker messaging and file explorer apps, and many more improvements that make it the quickest ROM I've ever used. You'll never be happier with your Tilt!
This ROM features a whole new and original look and feel.
This ROM is recommended for AT&T Tilt owners, but should work for everyone. For the best performance, it is recommended that you use radio version 1.27.14.09 with this ROM.
Main Features:
Exclusive Designer Home Clock
Original Utility Home Icons
Subtle Battery Meter (see screenshots)
Outstanding Performance
Inside you'll find:
Original HTC Home
Daily Agenda
HTC Task Manager
BTcrawler
AT&T Proxy Manager
Streaming Apps
FieldTest
Intent Java
RDC
QuickGPS
WiFiFoFum
A handful of games
HTC Album
HTC Audio Manager
TCPMP
Advanced Config
(Fast) Voice Command mapped to PTT
Real Player
Pocketscreen
PIMBackup
and more...
Screenshots:
New in Version 1.0 (with battery meter while charging):
Left softkey mapped to "New SMS", Skinned Dialer, Audio Manager.
The subtle battery meter is a customized version of Batti. It blends in with the theme so it doesn't look ugly and stand out, but it's easy to see when you look for it.

BIG THANKS TO _Alex_, bepe, ervius, benthon, dark simpson, itsme, mamaich, pof, tadzio, theblasphemer, jugglerLKR, and everyone else without whom this ROM would not have been possible!
Looks interesting...I will give it a whirl in a couple of hours. Will let you know what I find out. What kind of feeback are you looking for in this ROM....pretty much everything I assume at this point?
Edit: Does this ROM already come with a radio or do I need to flash the radio seperately.
btw download was nice and fast

The final version of this ROM will have a handful of tweaks and goodies, as well as a more unified theme. Right now I'd mostly just like feedback on the stability and speed of the ROM.
I've found the responsiveness to be outstanding - especially in the File Explorer (including start menu), camera, and messaging apps. In fact, this is the first ROM where I have been able to use the camera with any sort of confidence.
I am sorry to say that you downloaded a version with a serious bug that will cause the ROM to crash ... a lot. Please download from the link again and delete the old file!
You will need to download and install the radio separately using the link in the 1st post.

Is the one on your server the correct one to download now? Or should I wait till you upload a fixed version?
Pictures will help with getting your ROM out there!
Since this is an AT&T based ROM, should I expect Cingular Video to work right out the box or do you think tweaking will be needed.
I, too...will flash later on today.
Just inquiring.....
looks interesting I'll give it a try later on today.

I've never used CV before, I'll have to look into it. I doubt it will be working out of the box with this rom. Other video sites seem to work well though.
edit: I have added realplayer into the new build. The AT&T proxy manager applications are in there too. Is that all that is needed?
New Version Posted!
Have a look!
I still have some minor things I need to sort out, but I'm at about 90% on this ROM.
A lot of time went into making the new theme. This includes a WM6 theme made from scratch, new wallpaper, boot screen, home clock, and home icons. At some point I will also be skinning the dialer and improving the theme in other areas. I hope you find this ROM as good looking as I hope I made it!
I can't track down the bug with the File Explorer icon. I replaced the icon in the file with a new one, but it appears that it is still showing a scrambled version of the old icon. I don't know where this is coming from yet, but I should have it fixed it short order.
Hope you enjoy it, please leave feedback!
Looks good, to bad it's for tilt
This is very nice ROM. Speedy and balanced - minimal bloat and neccessary apps.
Nice. I was going to hold off until Quentin- releases his next Q-Mobile, but this ROM looks very well done. I'll download once you finalize, as I'm not a tester sort :X
This rom is absolutely fantastic, faster rom I have flashed yet and I have tried them all. One issue though, what the heck is up with the text input mode? IS their anyway you could release a cab to turn the text input method back to oem?

Yea that little bug took me by surprise today. It's SO annoying! Not only does it make typing text impossibly tedious, but it slows down the overall ROM as well. LAME! I should have tested more before release...
Fortunately I've fixed it in my current build and will be making a release probably tonight (read: early morning like 2am) if I can manage to squash a few more bugs.
NEW VERSION
Okay, I should probably give some time between releases to let people play with each version of the ROM, but I there were some bugs that were too annoying in RC1 to leave around for long (like the keyboard thing).
RC2 is a marked improvement and includes about 90% of the changes I wanted made. This could be considered a milestone release and as long as there is nothing major that turns up immediately, I won't be releasing another version for several days.
I am most excited about the new subtle battery. It works like batti or vistahide battery meters, except it is themed to be just barely noticeable. At 100% battery power, you can't even see it at all. As the battery drains, you can see the meter only if you're looking for it. It's FAR LESS annoying than the rainbow battery meter that has been so popular lately. Let me know what you think!
There is a bug that I believe has to do with Net CF 3.5 that is causing Windows Live Mobile not to work. This is one of my favorite programs, so I will be tackling the bug soon.
Let me know what you think - I'd especially love to hear feedback on the overall theme and new battery meter!
great. it is alright if i flash this to a 8529 tilt?

Do you mean 8925??
If it's an AT&T Tilt you should be just fine. But before installing the ROM, be sure you have installed HARD-SPL!!! I cannot stress this enough!
See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679
I'll give it a whirl
so I tried it and I really actually like how zippy my phone is. The only problem is that I have no sound. At first I used the polaris radio 1.58, and then I switched to the 1.64 radio and I still have no souind. Does only a certain radio work with this ROM?
Here is the Long awaited Espresso Port!!!!!!

ah ha. welcome back
been running this rom for a couple mins not bad at all. good thing i backup my paid apps for such occasions.
There haven't been too many releases lately, so I've been waiting for this rom like a crack addict.
The fact that paid-apps are missing is keeping me from flashing it.
Awesome work though Eugene, I'll def be flashing the next release.
Will do...
I will flash tonight and see how it works out....so far the espersso roms are looking nice, I bet they will kick arse as soon as the bugs have been sqaushed!!!

you can backup your apps (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5217198&postcount=4) then just install them.. unless you buy apps EVERYDAY.
Added Screen Shots For those That Prefer to see the Rom before Flashing.

I just Posted That, As I've not truly Tested it...
The Phone I'm using ( G1 ) has no Sim Card, and Figured it would just be easier to say it didn't work, then to say Paid Apps work w/o Testing it...
Glad to know Paid Apps are working, can anyone else confirm this as well?
If so I'll Update the OP.
~Edit~
Paid Apps is working correctly via Twitter
Thanks,

Question, since the Android 2.1 SDK has been officially released, would this help the issues with Camera, etc?

The SDK has been Released, The Source has not.
keep up the good work euge
Here is the Video Link of it Running http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYlrc2Chcx8
Also can be found on the #1 Post right above the Picture's. Not the Best Video, but I tried...
Just flashed and booted into this. As of this post, it's still syncing with Google for contacts, calendar, and email. (The latter of which it got fairly quickly.) i'm still giving it time to sync up, but from what I can tell it's responsive after you get through the setup process, but that you only need to limp through once.
During setup I got some kind of crash out of HTC Media, but I ignored it and considered it unimportant. Haven't heard anything out of it since.
I haven't put it through it's paces just yet, though. We'll see how it goes from here.
Very nice work, Eugene!
Edit: One thing I have noticed consistantly with 2.x ROMs is that they all seems to HATE Twidroid PRO for some reason. What gives? :\
Testing of V2
Flashed after doing full wipes on my G1. It asked me to link to my google account about 10 times, then altter the Setup Wizard crashed and after a reboot it had my information already so it let me go through.
I linked my facebook account and the messages were being displayed correctly, all was working good.
One thing I could not get to work was SU permissions. Did everything to try and make it work but it just wouldn't show anything, no FC it just didn't start the application.
Looks great overall and after disabling some animations and widgets it was running smooth (no more random FC).
Can't wait to see this with less bugs. Great work!

Re-Wipe Data/Cache /SD/EXT & Dalvik, then Re-install. As you shouldn't had those error's.
Also, Download terminal & type SU to verify if su is working correctly. Just did it on my build installed on the g1, and SU is working fine.

I did and it was working after the next reboot.
I'm actually testing the trojan hero build and I have to admit it's really good. I'll install that on my brothers phone, looks really stable and bug free, been looking for that for a while. nice work man.
Looks and works goooood!!!

RETIRED!
Hey again guys. Good news and bad news.
Bad News:
I will not be releasing Chromatic ROMs in the near future. I have way too much going on in my personal and professional life right now, to be haxxin on ROMs.
Good News:
The Biff Mod Squad is still developing BiffMOD and it is currently on V 2.1 which is based on CM 6.1 Froyo 2.2.1 (latest) ANNNND even better news! Sisterchick has created a Chromatic theme for it, so you can still enjoy the Chromatic flavor!
Originally BiffMOD was the exact same thing as Chromatic so you guys will be in good hands with those folks. Go check it out, the Chromatic Theme should be up tomorrow (11-10)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=745478
Themes for Biffmod: (including Chromatic Theme)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=829145
Chromatic 4.5 STABLE
Includes
Full ROM (Froyo)
Google Apps
Major theming
Apps2ext
Anderwebs' newest launcher (all themed up)
Compcache upped to 32mb from 12mb.
OC kernel included (must install SetCPU)
Swap enabled by default
Download here
FLASH THIS BEFORE THE ROM AND AFTER YOUR BACKUP IT WILL WIPE SYSTEM, CACHE, AND DATA!!!
http://chromatic.r00t.la/Releases/wipedatacachesystem.zip
Out of respect for the dev, I have removed SetCPU; this will also help with some of the update woes people have been having, he offers it up free on his XDA page. 2.0 is out and it is SLICK!
Download latest version here: http://chromatic.r00t.la/
Known Issues
[*]XML Import and Export is not working on versions prior to 4.3 ITS FIXED!!!(CMParts)
[+] For the time being right click and save the file here on your computer, and then go into the UI tweaks under Settings>CMParts on your phone, and fill in the corresponding parts as listed on the xml file
[*] Sometimes Market can go wonky and get hung up on downloads
[+] Fix for this is to first check your downloads page as Froyo can restore your apps so it may already be downloading the same app your trying to install, or it may just be processing hard trying to restore all of your "known" apps. Just let it work through those restores, it may max out your internal memory and fail a bunch of them, thats ok just let it do its thing. Then re-boot and try again.
[+] Next, if you are still having trouble, Go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>All> Market, And clear cache, Clear Data, Force Stop; Then hit back and go to Market Updater and do the same. Re-boot, and then re-try your install. Still doesn't work? Then something is broken, wipe and re-flash.
Battery Issues?
[+] Let the phone die till it turns off
[+] Plug it in
[+] Boot into recovery
[+] Wipe battery stats
[+] Let batter charge for 8+ hours, this is good conditioning for you battery as well!
~POST BOOT SETUP~
Setup
Don't allow Google to collect anonymous data; It makes your GPS run all the time.
Un-Check Back up my data to Google
LET IT SYNC! Its going to do all kinds of stuff like restoring apps etc. just let it chill for a while, go into market and watch the downloads tab once the sync icon disappears! Seriously, leave it alone, go hang out, or setup your settings but leave apps alone!
If you get into a loop with the setup wizard on first boot, just hit home key after you log in once.
CM Settings
Go to: Settings>CyanogenMod Settings
Application settings> Check Allow application moving (DO NOT CHANGE INSTALL LOCATION FROM AUTOMATIC, IT WILL CAUSE ISSUES WITH APPS2EXT)
Input Settings>Lockscreen music controls are awesome thanks kmobs!, Menu unlock settings are in here as well.
Performance Settings> Seriously Dragons...you should only touch Lock Home in Memory (which everyone should turn on!) if you want us to support you in the threads Other stuff is functional, but experimental!
UI Settings> See Known issues section for instructions on setting this up easily Setting most things to white or grey will result in fine looks. You need not mess with Notification bar submenu under >Notifications colors
Spare Parts Setup
Go to: Settings>Spare parts
Window animations: Fast
Transition animations: Fast
Remember (as with all CM based ROMS) you will need to change the text color for your clock and notifications via Settings>spare parts. It will be black on black when you boot.
See Known issues list for workaround!
Right click and save as xml to the root of your SD card
Go into Settings>CM Settings>User Interface>Tweaks Extra, and scroll all the way down, click "Import colors from XML"
Reboot to apply changes
SetCPU Setup
Download from here give coolbho3000 some love 2.X is AMAZING!
Recommended Settings
Max 576MHz
Min 245/128
Scaling ALWAYS on demand
If you have reboots, scale it back!
Setup Profiles for charging and sleeping:
Max: 528
Min: 245
ADW Suggestions
Go into Settings>ADW Settings
Change "Desktop scrolling speed" value to 0-177. (0 is what I use and is silly fast!)
Desktop Overshoot set to "50"
I also recommend Under UI settings:
Checking, Closing dockbar
Checking, Tint AB
Checking, Hide AllApps Bg
Checking, Hide AB Bg
Checking, Hide Icon labels
Highlight Press Color: FF000000
Highlight Focus Color: FF696969
Un-Check, Scrollable widget support (unless you are using some of the new scrollable widgets like what the Pure line is doing)
Get in there play around!!!
If you do have problems wipe and try again
I put a lot into this ROM I hope everyone likes it!!!
Based on CM 6 (Nightly 8-08) (Thanks to Cyanogen and his team of oh so amazing, self proclaimed douches!)

It's important to know that the "DangerSPL" (or DeathSPL or Haykuro's SPL or whatever you prefer) is a prerequisite for Dream/G1 users. Magic (MT3G etc) users do *not* need to do this. Ciwrl has written a guide to installing this bootloader. Flashing this bootloader under the wrong conditions can actually brick your device, so pay attention to the guide. CM releases have always avoided this requirement, but the new bootloader frees up enough space so that no crazy hacks are required for a fully functional system.
INSTRUCTIONS:
HTML:
- First time flashing a CM-5 based rom?
1. Root your device and install Amon_RA's recovery (Dream / Magic)
2. Do a Nandroid backup!
3. Install the DangerSPL if you don't already have it
4. WIPE (I cannot guarantee an upgrade from CM-4.2 to this CM-5 based ROM will work- Titanium Backup may be of help)
5. Install the ROM
- Upgrading?
1. Do a Nandroid Backup!
2. Install the ROM
If it is lagging or feeling laggy go into SETCPU chances are the max is set to something stupid low for some reason so it makes this ROM feel like crap.
~if you have problems I recommend a full wipe
1.Wipe>Wipe Data Factory Reset
2.Wipe> Clear dalvik Cache
3.Wipe> Wipe EXT partition
4.Wipe> Battery stats
4. Partition Sd Card> Repair EXT partition
5. Flash zip
6. Enjoy!

From reading the info posted here, it sounds like just a theme.
I think you should post this in the Android Themes section with flashable zip files that change the theme instead. I wouldn't really consider this a new "rom" or anything, it hardly has to do with the development section. It's just CM with a bit of a twist.

Gonna try this now

WORKS GREAT!!!
i would say faster and safer then the original cm!
thank you so much
now, the only thing i need to add is a white theme (for my white magic^^) :>

This is something with CM 5.0.7, I have seen it happening on all variants of the ROM. I just mount SD in recovery to avoid it being goofy.

It is a themed rom that has been modded... so it is in the right place.
so basically it is:
CM 5.0.7 T3
+ Gapps
+ Battery Hotfix
+ ADW Launcher
+ Blackbar
right?

Ok initial impressions:
After first boot up wankyness this rom is really smooth!
first boot up wankyness includes Lag slowness market problems etc etc!
Well after a reboot everything works great! I would put it on par speedwise with superbad. This is definitely a keeper! Will see in the coming hours at how stable it stays! Thinking of trying the overclock kernel!

Yeah Yeah, I'm a file pusher. There are a lot of people who cant even do that. Thus why I am releasing this for everyone.
Thanks for packaging everything in one zip. Justed flashed so will get back with you about performance
Geek For Me is proud to release:
Fresh Hero 2.4.0 for your Sprint Hero
NOTE: Remember that Fresh Hero is considered a stable every day rom, and Fresh Toast is a dev rom that may have issues. Also (in case there is confusion) Fresh Hero is for the Hero and Fresh Evo for the Evo. But I think that's self explanatory.
Also FYI: the phone may freeze on very first boot at the lockscreen, or it may get to the lockscreen and then reboot one more time. This should only happen on the very first boot after flashing the rom (if it happens at all).
If you are coming from Fresh Hero 2.3.3 then no wipe is required. You can grab the incremental update (10 mb) to go from 2.3.3 or the full update. The full update is required if you are coming from any other rom. If you are coming from another rom then a full wipe may be required. Always make a nandroid backup, I can't be held responsible if something breaks, etc, etc.

Added Fresh Updater! Check the How To for information on setting it up and using it. This project has been on the back burner for months, and I’m happy to finally have brought it back and finished it up. Thanks to cyanogen and firefart as it’s based on CMUpdater. Use Fresh Updater to enable the vanilla lock screen.
270 degree auto-rotation (you can turn the phone to the right or the left for landscape) — Thanks to Optedoblivion for pointing me in the right direction.

HTC_IME Mod High Res v.27 keyboard -- This keyboard has a ton of features. I have included this keyboard and the stock one. To change which keyboard you use just do a long press on a text input field.
All APK's have been png optimized and zipalign'd
png optimize goes through every APK and losslessly compresses the png (picture) files without causing any type of visual change. This provides a smaller apk file size that loads faster. Each APK has then been zipalign'd. From Android's developer page: zipalign is an archive alignment tool that provides important optimization to Android application (.apk) files. The purpose is to ensure that all uncompressed data starts with a particular alignment relative to the start of the file. Specifically, it causes all uncompressed data within the .apk, such as images or raw files, to be aligned on 4-byte boundaries. This allows all portions to be accessed directly with mmap() even if they contain binary data with alignment restrictions. The benefit is a reduction in the amount of RAM consumed when running the application.
While this does free up space on /system it is not done to make free space. It is done purely for a performance gain. Every day use of the phone will go smoother and stock applications will respond faster. The reason this works is because it has reduced the application file size as much as 50%, so they load in to memory faster and run smoother.
Additionally all applications in /data/ (even ones you downloaded) will be zipalign'd on boot if they need to be.
Not every apk takes png optimization + zip align well. I've done it on enough roms that I think I know which ones cause issues now, but if you are getting FC's on any apps (I can't test them all) then let me know and I'll get it resolved. Thanks!
Entire rom has been resigned.
Major thanks to jschisurf for help on this. The process changed from Android 1.5/2.0.1 and I was getting errors where I had previously never had problems. He helped me figure out what I was doing wrong.
Resigning all the apks allows for non-standard apps to be used (like FriendStream) and also provides a standard based for modding apks.
Apps2sd updated to Darktremor 2.7.5p2 by tkirton.
Apps2sd takes all applications from /data/app and /data/app-private and moves them to a partition on your sdcard. This allows you to store more apps on your phone and also allows you to restore your phone and keep all your apps in tact (albeit with all settings lost). Although sometimes wiping sd:ext is required too.
You do not have to use apps2sd if you don't want to use it. If you just don't format your sdcard with an ext partition (leave it all as fat32 like it is from the factory) then apps2sd will stay turned off.
How to setup apps2sd on Fresh and warnings about apps2sd
Battery optimizations
Raised VM kernel dirty page writeback frequency to 15 seconds. This wakes the phone up less often for background VM activity. Every single application in Android is technically running in a VM (virtual machine) so that's why this helps (as recommended by lesswatts.org).
Updated Google Maps to 4.3.0
Updated Launcher Pro to 0.6.5.1
Updated Estrongs (ES) File Explorer to 1.4.2.2
Wifi Tether 1.6 -- This is not the newest version but in my experience it works best on the Hero. If you are getting a FC in wifi tether then it's because you have another copy of it in /data/ with a different name. Therefore you ended up with two copies. Remove one of them and reboot.
Facebook moved to /data/ so that it can be uninstalled
Dancing droid boot screen thanks to wrx4memp!
Added PowerTOP 1.11. From LessWatts.org: Programs can make your [phone] use more power. PowerTOP is a Linux tool that helps you find those programs that are misbehaving while your [phone] is idle. — Compiled by cyanogen.
To run PowerTOP just open an adb shell and type: "powertop -d". It will scan for 15 seconds and then print out a report.
The first section will show you what % of time your phone spent running at what Mhz. Ignore the Mhz in the screenshot above because it's from my Evo so it will look a little different on the Hero.
The next section shows wakeups-from-idle per second. 50-80 would be normal. If you are in that range then you don't have a problem.
The next list is the top causes for wakeups. Compare your list to mine (I only showed the top 3).
All the way at the bottom it will have optimizations that can be made to lower power use. These changes can not be made to the rom itself, they must be made to the kernel. While other roms claim they made changes to the kernel, if they are using the stock kernel (if they aren't over-clockable then they are using the stock kernel) then they didn't. While there is a kernel source available to us, I have chosen to continue using the stock kernel until our official source is released by HTC for stability reasons.
I have chosen to NOT include adless browsing in my rom. I used adless browsing in all of my Hero Android 1.5 roms because it actually blocked ads from the browser. In Android 2.1 this functionality stopped working so I stopped including it. It was pointed out to me that while it doesn't block them in the browser, it does block them in apps (background data). The reason I am choosing to not include this is because as a developer myself, I feel that the authors deserve to get paid for what they do if you want to use their app. If you are choosing to use their free ad-driven application then I don't want to contribute to people blocking those ads and preventing the dev from getting paid.
Stock vanilla lock screen has been customized in the following ways:
Fixed to work properly by flipz
Emergency button showing up after airplane mode fix by flipz
Menu-menu to unlock disabled by flipz
Clock / Sprint / other misc stuff removed thanks to jschisurf!
Added live wallpapers back to Rosie. . Keep in mind that you are using lwp "at your own risk." They may use more battery, they may cause wake issues. And only the lower end ones will work properly. This is not the fix that breaks opengl to allow you to use the more visual ones. Stick with the ones that just draw on the screen (a few are included).
flash_image for flashing RA
Quickboot works... for those who use it!
Espresso bottom bar in green
Full color sliders (see screen shots)
Removed (copied to /sdcard/fresh-removed-apks):
The following applications have been removed, however I am trying something new. I have the installer copy all of these applications to /sdcard/fresh-removed-apks. This will allow you to easily install the applications by clicking on them in ES File Explorer, or by copying them to /system/app for the ones that won't install that way (HTC's apps don't play nicely with installing). The applications marked with a * can be installed in one click by clicking on it in ES, the ones marked with # aren't included because they don't need to be reinstalled. The rest you will have to copy them to /system/app. This can be done by issuing the following commands:
adb remount
adb shell
cp /sdcard/fresh-removed-apks/WHATEVERAPP.apk /system/app

What to expect / how to flash it / READ THIS :
Download and copy the zip to the root of your sdcard
Reboot to RA and do a data wipe / factory reset (REQUIRED)
You may also need to wipe sd:ext if you are having troubles booting.
If you are running Fresh Toast and ext4 then you'll need to partition back to ext3 if you want to use apps2sd
Pick flash zip from sdcard and select fresh-hero*.zip
After it finishes flashing reboot. Expect the first boot up to take a while.
If it boot loops over and over (you keep hearing the startup sound) then you didn't wipe everything.
When the phone boots and comes to the user setup screen I would recommend syncing your google account right away. I noticed an old bug creep back in where it gets stuck during sync. This seems to be avoided by adding your google account during setup.
The more social networking stuff you have setup (Facebook, twitter, friendstream, etc) the less battery life you will get. These programs do not have a "push" function and work by checking every single one of your contacts to see if they have an update.

Awesome. Flipz, you're my favorite! What are some of the bugs that you want to work out?
Are you or should I say can you(not sure what kernel this uses) move this over to Fresh Toast or will that project not be effected by the leak?
I guess what I am really getting at is if this is going to delay Fresh Toast further or if it is looking good.
friendstream in this?
Since this isn't OCd I'm gonna jit it and see what happens. I flashed damage's flashable ROM earlier and didn't care for it. I'm too use to the OC speed and quickness that it felt like it was in slow-motion.
THIS BOOTSCREEN!
flipz you're the man, for real
Only thing that worries me about modding this Flipz, is /app and /framework are .odexed.
Ok, been using this for an hour-ish now. Just found an issue. When viewing photos, if I rotate the phone, no app (photo viewer, gallery, etc) will rotate. Checking and auto rotate is turned on.
Can anyone confirm?
Edit: Crap. I'm seeing 100% wake time too.

Also (and this is the cause of the wake time issue) we're back to the GSM issue in *#*#4636#*#*
If you manually change it to CDMA auto PRL the wake time issue goes away.
can anybody confirm apps2sd works moving dalvik too on first boot? i tried and couldn't get it on a rom i was building?
damn more awake time issues and i heard a few say sound issues too. do you guys really think this is the final? any thoughts flipz?
good work btw and fast.
and just to let you guys know i had no issues applying several of my themes to this leak today.
KRomE v1.3 updated 9/29/2010
Rom that I cooked using android kitchen.
Based off of my carrier's(Alaska Digitel) 2.1.
See currently supported regional carriers below in 3rd post.
I will try to pull the apn info from all the other regional carriers listed at the PCD site.
CS users for now you will have to add the apn info yourself instructions will be below. I will try to add it in later on I still need to figure out where this info is stored.
About the Update
Updated maps apk to 4.5 but 4.5.1 was just released, also removed the sounds that come included in the rom except for the ones that get selected by default. Apps2SD and SU was updated. I also zipaligned this time around to see if there is any difference.
I am keeping the mods separate for now, they may get included in the future.
Warning: I forgot to add livewallpaper picker when I built the rom so 1.3 is missing livewallpapers... I will update the rom to include the livewall picker and add the 4.5.1 maps update as well. This should be done over the weekend.
Warning2: While testing the new build I noticed that the wifi also isn't working. When you try to start it says unable to start. so the new build will take some more tinkering till it is out. If you don't care about wifi the livewallpaperless version is avilable. But if you need wifi you will have to use 1.2 which is posted under the 1.3 download
Basic Info
Deodexed
Zipaligned

Alternate Roms
CellSouth Based Roms - DangerRom, South Paw!(You will need to push your apn info)
You can use any of the sprint base roms(Fresh, DamageControl, ZenHeroFX, etc.), although you will get a handsfree activation error you can ignore it but gets annoying. You will not get voicemail notifications unless you push a phone.apk from a non-sprint rom. I have tested this with Aloysius and it seems to work without any problems I have not done any long term tests but I did get a voicemail notification and was able to dial out.
More info can be found here

Thats not a problem, let me know how the rom works. I did have one issue with my voicemail not coming up. I am not sure why it happened, but the notification popped up when I flashed the new rom. It could be an issue with the Phone No End phone.apk as it is for a fresh build. I will play around with it some more to get to the bottom of it.
I've been using it all day, and so far its not bad. Heading back to the slope right now so ill write more when I get to camp tonight.

I hate to ask a noob question but I am a noob so here goes. What do I need to do to get Apps2Sd to work. I have not flashed your ROM yet but I am getting ready to and wanted to do whatever I needed to do prior to the flash. I think I have to reformat the SD card or partion it. Going to search for answers but maybe one of you has the answer before I find it.
Thanks for doing a ROM that will work on ACS in AK.
gonna give this a go for alltel, if mms works I will post the apn from the alltel stock for anyone who needs it...
EDIT: Wow, this was like installing a stock rooted alltel rom. Apn all set everything work and even the alltel wallpaper at boot. Can you link me to the RUU for this?
a2sd
Hey JR, back up sd card, format it to fat 32, partition it swap- 0 ext- 512 rest fat 32. Upgrade to ext 3. Toggle ms-dos and the root of sd card should pop up on pc, copy Rom.zip to it and any other add ons you want to flash. Nandroid first, then wipe everything above batt stats and start flashing. A2sd should go in on its own but if not get terminal emulator from market, open it and type su, then a2sd sdcache and it will run alot of script just look for any errors in script. Hope this helps.
Awesome work!
I have an Alltel Hero and I really want to root it but I am such a noob and am afraid of bricking it. Anyways thank you all for the hard work and hopefully a how to root video will pop up on youtube
I'll be watching these forums very closely!

You can get the RUU from the PCD Site This is based on the Alaska Digitel RUU.
But it has 36 different apn info, so it should work with most of the regional carriers I just haven't had a chance to compare the apn info for all the other carriers yet.
thanks for letting me know alltel works I will update the list.

FYI this rom installed with stock alltel wallpapers and settings and worked flawlessly, I had to double check and make sure I didnt accidently run my nandroid restore or something. I am very excited to discover this and begin working. Thank you so much... apperently Alltel must be in the regional carriers list.
cool that your doinng a bit of cooking now. im not a fan of sense but i know a few people that will want this. btw when using sprint roms delete OMADM.apk to get rid of hands free bs
Last night I gained ROOT, tonight I have partioned my SD card and flashed my first ROM. Other than the pain of setting up all the crap over (apps, contacts, settings, bookmarks and such) it painless. Now to see if it makes any difference.
The ROM is woking good on my ACS Hero. Going to keep running it for now. Seems a bit faster and the lag on keyboard and dialer are gone.
Keep up the good work.
Keep it up bud. Your doing a good thing here. Keep tweaking and updating your work. I ran it for a couple days and I'm sorry I haven't wrote about it yet. My phone was having issues with it, ran great first day, then issues kicked in. I went back to aosp, but I'm sure will miss using sense and when that happens I will come back to you. Keep going with it. : )

been running this on alltel for two days nows with no issues... everything continues to work just great... only issue so far was overclock widget for market... set to 710/710 screen on and 122/244 screen off...
seemed to get more lag with it, run much smoother without the widget

Thats kinda of strange, have been working great here for the most part. I have had terrible battery drain the other day but it could of been the combination of the auto killer and widgetlocker. Which AOSP rom are you running??

I guess I should of mentioned that you don't need to use a OC widget or app for this rom, the battery tweak is suppose to manage that depending on the amount of battery life that is left.

I have a HTC Hero from Open Mobile, this ROM works with Open Mobile carrier ??
