Excellent work zeeshee !

Nice job there, Zeeshan...Downloading now
Update:
Works like a charm.
Does seem to be quicker...Will wait for matrix to benchmark it.
Calculator still in expert
No issues yet

image is corrupted when flashing via USB
and doesnt get a certificate when flashing from SD

Did you do USPL?? I doubt it. If then re-download.
BTW: there is no Radio included in this *.nbh!

retried with the USPL and the roms is working fine.
Looks a lot better and the tekst is more clear than the original.
But did u realy have to put that bootlogo in it?

I will change the boot logo as may ppl requested for this

NICEEEEEEEEEE
Thank you I will give a try! Thank you!
PS: on my previous comment on the connection manager, sorry yes it is there my mistake, although there is no option to turn off the GPRS (Edge) connection! (there is only WIFI, Bluetooth and Phone).
Also do you think you can solve this other small issue? "when I receive a sms and i am still in the inbox, in the home screen the vox indicates me like I still have to read the sms (new sms) while I have already read it because i was in the inbox chatting when I received it! can you correct this? thanks"

Again go to connection Manager & press right SoftKey. Read 1st option carefully & let me know what it says

ok Im an idiot.. although it is quite hidden..or at least not visible as the WIFI on/off

Installed!!
thanks

How to turn off bold font i.e. in right softkey menu or in contact list? (Or - how to change the whole phone font?) I don't have time to search for responsible registry key
And thanks for your ROM, I'm a huge fan

Good work zeeshee, keep it up!
Any chance of making 4x4 icon grid in the start menu? 4x3 still looks better than 3x3 in the original ROM, but 4x4 would fit there perfectly.

Nice work, Zeeshan. Thanks a ton!
Got installed last night. I think, in the first instance, the performance of this ROM is really better than any of the previous ROMs, especially in terms of RAM consumption. Yet to explore more abt the same. Will give more feedback after that...

Hello two issues:
- the black bar is back again, like in the first release i.e. http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/245/screen003ao2.png
- could you remove the sound when you make a call or use the trick of Dr. Martin Gonzo? I think the previous release hadnt this owful sound when you call someone, thanks!

I don't have the black bar problem this time! I wonder how you people get it. In fact, I had straightaway switched to another background, without sliding panel. May be thats why I didn't realize.

I am using the "slide media" theme + SmartToolkit RC09 and I have the black bar problem!

Hey, I changed my homescreen back to Sliding Panel. I too have whatever you have mentioned on my homescreen, but I am not getting the black bar.
Anyway, there is a work around, if you are still facing the problem, which is as follows:
You will have to edit the following two files in windows folder:
CHome_240x320.cpr
CHome_320x240.cpr
Copy the same to your pc and open with notepad. The files are ReadOnly. So just remove the ReadOnly attributes for these files.
For CHome_240x320.cpr file,
Change the "Height" property for Image element to 313 (in Line no. 2)
Similary, for CHome_320x240.cpr file,
Change the "Height" property for Image element to 233 (in Line no. 2)
Save the files and copy back to the windows folder using Resco or Total Commander. And Soft-reset. You are done.

Hi!
I have checked this files and the value is already the right one!!
See below, I am not joking I have the black bar...
PS: there is a way to show more calendar events on the homescreen? thanks

Which ROM is this?

I originally started this topic with this:
I won't ask you: "Which ROM is best for me?" as I've done my little research and although I don't know much yet, I've already figured that each and every ROM is different and it is up to me to decide which ROM is right for me. So we are clear on this.
Here is my question:
Which ROM has as least as possible things pre-installed? I want a ROM where I won't have all those applications I am planning on replacing or never even goign to use. Like: Alarm Clock, Amazon MP3, Browser, Calculator, Calendar, Email, Voice Search and so on... You get the idea.
Any suggestions?
I am using HTC MyTouch 3G with AT&T carrier:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32B SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0006 (SAPP30000)
CPLD-10
RADIO-2.22.23.02

BUT I figured that I could as well just get some kind of application in order to get read of the pre-installed applications?! If there is such application (best if free, but if my best option is to pay for it then it is fine), then could you guys just tell it to me.

Why would you need to remove apps that you won't use just because you won't use them I mean...Browser...why would you remove it ? To regain space on /system? Well then we go for another question...why would you need more space on system partition ? Also removing some apps like Browser can disable some other apps that depend on them. You can of course do it really easily just by extracting the zip file, removing apps don't need, ziping all the files you extracted and then signing the zip file. But I still don't get it

Well all you have to do is before you wipe and flash the rom. Unzip it. Remove all the apps you dont want, then rezip and resign it. Then flash it. Simple yet effective

It is not even about the space they take mb-wise. They take up space in menu. I don't need Browser because I use Opera, I don't need an Alarm Clock because I am using another program for my alarms, and so on. Now that I have like 40 applications and half of them are the original 20 it is hard to navigate, hard to find them, and take a long time to do it too. You see what I mean?
It would even work if I could simply remove a shortcut out of the menu. I don't care for it staying installed in my phone. I just want it out of the menu.

I did and guess what - they loved me.
Advanced launcher does that - hides them from the menu.
Why don't you just put them on your home screens, order them nicely..use folders..

I got a reason to ask for what I am asking for. Trust me before I posted this topic I tried all ways to go around it!
Perfect application! Does what I need and more! Accept I am facing one problem. I created a couple of folders and I can't add shortcuts inside now... For example if I were to create a regular folder on home screen, then I would enter it and click on "menu" button and then click "add". Problem with the folders in the launcher is that when I enter them the "add" button is grayed out.
Any ideas?

...
Unzip the ROM, replace the Launcher.apk with Advanced Launcher's, sign and flash.
Or just download the 1.6 version from the market.

You can just drag and drop icons into folders..

Nope... When I grab an icon and try to drop it in a folder my whole launcher is being moved as if I was scrolling it... and then if I grab and hold it long enough then that gets my launcher minimized and sends me to my home screen so that I can drop it on my home screen.

You could simply just move everything you want to see onto the home screen and ignore the rest by not bringing up the launcher.
Or you can use slidescreen pro, and set only your desired apps on the top 2 rows.

Sounds almost like you want Android: Preschool Edition.

you can remove apps with root explorer by browsing to the app folder and deleting them from there..
you can also delete them via terminal by these commands...
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
rm /system/app/NAMEOFAPP
and replace NAMEOFAPP with the name of app you want to remove

No, it´s not possible - at least not with builtin abilities. You can only assign different ringtones for incoming calls

yeah i thought as much, cheers mate.....

I believe there's a Mortscript out there, named MortRing, that'll allow you to assign different message tones per contact. I haven't tested it yet myself so I don't know if it works. Here's the file..give it a try and let us know if it works.

thanks for this man. I didn't have much luck with mortscript so I'll give this a go tonight. cheers....

Looking forward to see if that program can cut it.
I too gave up on Mort-Script - its not working really well with HD2. It's was working to some extend - but it messed up other parts of the HD2 phone functions.
Mort = Close but no Cigar.

[APP] Browser To Phone

Android Market: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.wiirecords.chrometophone
This app is entirely based on Chrome to Phone! It has the same features (and bugs, lol) as the original with some additional cool features! The original app is awesome and it deserves all the credits, this app is only adding more features!
Browser to Phone lets you process incoming links virtually anyway you want it:
* download anything to your phone, instead of just opening the link
* convert file to other formats (i.e. send a bmp link, convert it to jpg and then download it)
* apply wallpapers/ringtones (i.e. send an image link and apply it as wallpaper)
* open specific apps (i.e. send an appbrain link and open android market automatically)
* more and more!
There are plentiful preloaded processes to use. Send suggestions about new processes/commands by e-mail and if feasible, they will be added on the next update!
You may create custom processes for your needs, define when they should run and what they will do. As this is not a simple task, you may search the web for custom processes done by other users and import them.
Download Processes: http://www.thiagorosa.com.br/android/browsertophone/files.php
You need to install a browser Extension on your computer to send links to your phone. Each browser has its own extension and they can be downloaded from:
Google Chrome: http://chrome.google.com/extensions
Mozilla Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/foxtophone
Opera: https://addons.opera.com/addons/extensions/details/opera-to-phone

How does the REPEAT command work exactly?
I'm trying to create my own process and I need to wait a few seconds between commands, is there a WAIT (or similar) command?

I cannot seem to find the Chrome extension, would you help?
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/search?category=ext&q=Browser+to+Phone

rhaige,
REPEAT has three parameters: regex, count, wait
The purpose of this command is to REPEAT the next command until the REGEX is returned. It will repeat COUNT times with a WAIT seconds interval between them.
tampiss,
It is the same extension from chrome to phone: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/oadboiipflhobonjjffjbfekfjcgkhco

Im trying it with the original extension, yet I always get error connection message. Normal Chrome to phone app works. Where can be a problem?

Where do you get this error message?
Is it on the android app? is it while connecting to your account?
or is it on the chrome extension?
thanks!

Yes, Im getting this message on Android app. I have just tried to uninstall Chrome to phone app and nothing changed. Even worse I have installed it back and now I can not connect on the official app too lol.

The same is happening to me now, it is probably an intermittent issue!

tampiss,
I was able to connect today! Please try again!
thanks!

Unfortunatelly not. The official app works again yet yours says the error while connecting. Im running Cognition ROM on Samsung GS2 if it helps.

tampiss,
I just tested again and both apps connect successfully!
There isn't any difference at all between the two apps during the connection. The only difference on Browser To Phone is that it processes links after they are received on the phone, nothing else!

Ive tried disconnecting the official app and then I was successful in connecting yours. Uff. Im gonna test it. Thank you for your help.

Hi. It works great. I can not seem to find the pro version in Android market. How can I purchase it? Thank you.
Never mind. I found out by adding custom profile
Ive purchased it. Thank you.

Cool! Thanks!!! =D

Hi,
- are there anywhere any custom processes findable on the web?
- how could I make simple process to parse clipboards content sent from my web browser?
- where are the files (such jpg, gif etc) downloaded? I can not seem to find them on the phone
- please, how to process the apk download? I have created the process, yet I would like to start the instalation as soon as its downloaded? any hints for the needed intent?
thank you am really enjoying playing with this cool app

1) i didn't find any yet... but you can export yours and let other people use it
2) what would you like to do exactly?
3) they are stored on the sd card, inside the download folder
4) you should use this:
action=android.intent.action.VIEW
type=application/vnd.android.package-archive
data=the apk file (example: file:///mnt/sdcard/download/abcde.apk)
This APK process should be similar to "Image to Wallpaper"!

Ok to the point 4. If i do not know the exact name of downloading apk, what should i use for data in the intent? Any replace or variable trick?
Edit: i got it working yay

The input will always be concatenated on the DATA field. So you probably don't need to do anything!
The input will be the output of the previous command. If the previous command is a HTTP_DOWNLOAD, the output will be where the file was downloaded. After that you should replace /mnt by file:// (check the Image to Wallpaper process)
Did you notice the unit test feature? (menu)
You can easily test without having to actually send the link to the phone. You setup a unit test link (http://www........./yourapp.apk) and you can long press each command to test it!

Yep I have noticed all of that and tested.
I may have another question
When downloading img from Chrome I always get the img downloaded as xxxx.jpg(125x210) which stands for the img size. Well when I look at the Chrome tab I see it in the title. Unfortunatelly it is downloaded and named as above so that to open the downloaded img I have to rename it first.
Any hint for replace or solution would be great.
Thank you.
Edit: I have found a bug. When sending any text it has a wrong encoding. I use special chars such ěřč yet they come to phones clipboard as mess.

About the bug, there is an open issue on chrometophone: http://code.google.com/p/chrometophone/issues/detail?id=318
Hummm, about the extension....
I think I will have to update the app to remove the dimensions...
For now you could create a REPLACE, something like this (i didnt test it):
Regex: \.jpg.*
Replacement: .jpg
Anyway, i will fix it on the next version!

Google photos help !

Hi all
I have an issue with google photos that is doing my head in. Basically when i take a batch of photos i then, when home switch on auto backup and they upload to google photos (great thats what i want !) i can then move them on google photos into albums and view these on all of my nexus devices through the gallery app.
Again all is great apart from one thing, when i go into the gallery app on say my nexus 5, all my photos are there in the albums etc, however i have one album thats called "auto backup" it has about 46 photos all of which appear in other albums but i cant no matter what i do get rid of this one album.
I have signed into google plus on pc and this album does not exist on there for me to delete. I have googled the problem and all the answers tell me to go into google settings and un sync google photos completely. I don't want this i just want this one album to vanish.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Chris

Edit:
Ok i saw that the auto-backup folder holds all the pictures that were backuped from any mobile device from the same account. You cannot delete that folder, as its not really a folder in the original sense. I think its just a "link" to a collection of all automatically backuped pictures. But since these pictures are all in different folders, if you would delete that "folder" the pics would also be deleted in your real folders/albums.
I hope this makes sense for you
So the folder you want to delete is no folder, only a shortcut to see all backuped pics that now are in various other albums.

Yeah, i nearly was afraid of this
Its so difficult for me to tell...i just have too many pics. But before i answered with my last post i double checked on my 2 Nexus devices (5 & 7) and i really looked that way. But with 3000 and more pics its not easy to tell if its exactly that pics.
But ill also recheck this because i also want to know how exactly this photobackup works...
What i also wonder about is why there are all the various backup-options there, i also asked it here a while ago but no answer yet. What i mean is this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

Another backup option (Google+ Photo backup) follows if you scroll down on that screen on phone.
