This rom was made specificly to be used with Rom Manager and Clockworkmod Recovery by Koush
-Apps:
Gapps to rom, but they install seperately from the rom itself to ensure a clean installation. No need to flash more than one thing
Zeam Launcher + Go Launcher, the GB Launcher seemed to be having some memory leaks, feel free it try other launchers from the market if you experience any lag issues over time
Rom Manager. You can use rom manager
Updated apps, android term, GB Keyboard, others, all free apps of course
-OpenGLES
I added a newer version to the rom to increase performance. I found it on this thread: http://www.xda-developers.com/androi...1-on-htc-hero/
-Wipe System to the rom
I added erase_image to the rom as a tool to wipe only the system partition before installing the rom itself. You will still need to select backup current rom and wipe data and cache with rom manager!

2. scripts are much more complex and check for more things, making it a much cleaner install with more options

Just don't partition the sdcard, then u can use the built in froyo apps2sd.
EDIT: you might come across some problems with out a partition, basically the launchers and a couple apps are installed on apps2ext on boot, so I highly recommend you make a partition , or else you'll be missing some key apps. If you don't want to use app2ext after wards then go to terminal app type:
Su
sh /system/etc/fr-patch141-BETA.txt apps2sd
Then you should get option to move all data/data apps to SD say no, then if you will get option to move apps to actual native apps2sd and say yes.
OR you can just use apps2ext so u don't have to do all that, and apps2ext is faster.

It is 32A,i hav flashed the rom,pretty cool,however i dont know why the home key havent any reaction when i pressed。
the home key doesnt work?

It does work actually haha, go into cyanogenmod settings OR spare parts, I can't remember off the top of my head actually but yeah there should be the option for what you want the home button to do, for me its return to default home screen, same goes for the end

I can't help you there because mines 32B haha, but IF someone wants to dare and have some lucky and do it then cool haha
I'm already on the ramhack for 32B so no need haha
EDIT: btw you might want to put in the op that you might be able to use the superwipe.zip to flash everything off the entire phone then do the normal wipe twice then flash rom, flash gapps and done haha

CM6.1-Miui-Style - Rom - 32B/2708 Radio

This rom is based on CM 6.1 final.
Its been injected with the latest MIUI, during this process, many of the graphic features have been Ported.
Features:
- All the CM goodies
- Automatic Apps2sdext
- Low Memory Killer settings on Boot
- Base Cm, none of the non essential applications
- Base of the Google Apps, by this i mean all those files you need to use market and sync,CarHome(i didnt find it on the market),PassionOffice to handle attachments, the others are Download-able from the market, so no need for them.
- Transparent GenieWidget, androotfile manager
- MiUi-Music!
- Original MiUi Bootanimation, scaled down ofc.
- Pershoot's kernel 2635.9,oc,uv,xtra,ram,fp#120810
- Custom Host file, ad-blocker
Req.
-87+ Mb on the system partition
-Ext partition 2/3/4 for apps2sdext
-Radio: 2.22.27.08|2.22.28.25
-SPL:1.33.0013d(Dream/Sapphire )/1.33.0013 (Sapphire ONLY)
Note, you could run this rom on 32A or old radio with 32B devices if you flash another kernel, recommended in that case: 32B-NON-2708 | 32A
How to install:
Start with a full wipe!
Flash it like any other rom.
Let it boot up, don't try to start to set it up till, at least, when the screen goes black.
If you get a LatinIME error Reboot and resume the setup from there, should go away.
On the SDcard you will find the adw launcher backup files, load them up, or make your own custom look. Bare in mind once you flash this rom, if you had other ADW back-ups on the sdcard root, they will be gone.
-Run fix_permissions first of all
-To configure the lowmemory killers run this: from ADB or Terminal:
a2sd lowmem-moderate|lowmem-optimum|lowmem-strict|lowmem-aggressive|lowmem-extreme|lowmem-ultimate|lowmem-default
-pick one of the options, im using lowmem-aggressive, looks pretty good

XDA, CyanogenMod team/community, Pershoot, ezterry (all the 2708 work!), those MIUI DEVs, ASimmons (Theme Injector), Brut.all (all the apk toys), Darktremor (A2SD), DelsaDj for the idea !
Updates:
Seams i had to include a auto-kernel coz there are different boards and such , so for those who have issues, redownload.
Download:
Dropbox | Megaupload
- MD5: 311124f71c766b2ab9b44bb47ca81038
Extra:
HTC_IME Keyboard - nowipe update, flash in recovery.
Newer AndRoot download (flash in recovery)
*androot - home
No replies yet? Really?
I'll try this out right now, see whatsup.
Looks a lot more promising than the theme being developed in the other thread, no offense.
Tried installing, no LatinIME error but I'm getting fatal errors on com.android.phone. I'll reboot and see if that can fix anything. Tragically, if I can't get over this very large error, I may not be able to play.
HT-03A (Docomo branded Sapphire)
Radio: 2.22.27.08

Did you check out the recovery.log after install? anyway, im uploading another version with a autokernel included, for non Trout.
testing now, will give feedback. just had a random reboot..
EDIT: ok no reboots so far rom is fast responsive and stable! will use it a couple days.
I flashed it with no problems but the boot animation wont show...only the G1 screen stays
Is it really Automatic a2sdext?
I found the ext is not auto mounted.
And I have to set the theme to stock_black to make colour appears correctly.

It is auto, unless ofc for some reason it cant mount your sdext partition. Well you just need to change the clock color, that bar is transparent because thats how it was in the MIUI rom.
@mahroze what radio& spl do you have ?
I can't get the swap to work automaticaly. Generally swap works, but after each reboot I must enable it and set swappiness.

You can't ? what happens
tried out this ROM and seems to be working great. After a wipe and still get all my apps back from ext. I was actually expecting a ported MIUI framework but it was just a pimped out ADW Launcher.
Went back to MT3G AOSP 2.2.1 ROM. Getting all the stability that I need.

well, i didn't change anything in adw launcher(i simply think its the best launcher), so yea what MIUI you see here is from framework-res. I did try to mess with the launcher but for what ever reason he didn't like any theming, plus the other rom has a adw theme with miui icons, no point in making another
iv followed the instructions and when it installs and reboots it just boots back into recovery

thank you.
what's the diff in this rom and cyano/froyomod rom?
Removed many bloat ware.. Some under the hood customizations.. gingerbread theme pre-installed!! some tweaks from both CM/froyomod and some other nexus one and htc roms!!
Can anyone tell about battery backup...... coz there is not much battery backup in modified roms as process keeps on active even phone is locked and consumes more battery....... is there any method to stop them plz tell....
Check it again it is there how to fix that...
Sent from my Milestone using Tapatalk
Is the launcher2.apk.1 a leftover? Same for the Music.apk.1
because it is easily taking up around 4 megs of space.
looks good
Ill test this rom and report back tomorrow bro

As in?
because both these apps are taking around 8MB of internal memory...
I did delete them.. without any issues. So it would be better if you delete them from the next release. To add some more space

[Rom]{7.13.11}[EC09] ComRom GB 0.2.1 (UGB) *0.2.1_Fixed for the Mesmerize!!!

With permission from nitsuj17, I am posting The UGB Ec09 based Comm ROM!!!
Now before i go and give links and all that stuff, i wanna get a few things out about this ROM...All i will be doing is keeping it updated with what TSM is doing with it...I take absolutely no credit for any of this other than the fact i edited what needed edited to get it working on the mesmerize!!!
Extra Credit to nitsuj17 for letting me copy any of his write up that i needed...made this a lot easier!!!
***Warning: EC09 is notorious for either wiping/corrupting/destroying sdcards...in testing com rom was doing this to some folks as well..use a backup card, or just deal with the risk...dont cry to us about ur borked card!****
I am in no way responsible for what you do to your phone. You take all responsibility for flashing this ROM and anything that happens with you phone!!!
*So what is Com Rom/UGB then? Basically it was the next stage in adrynalyne's superclean roms which have been going since dl09 (and since dio1 through jt1134). Its a stripped down version of touchwiz (in this case EC09 gingerbread) with enhancements/mods/themes...basically more functionality.
Highlights: (as of 0.2.1)
*includes tsm parts: see sbrissen's thread for specific mods added
*gingerbread themed (frameworks, sys ui, settings, dialer, phone, music, browser, contacts, camera..more to come)
*deodexed
*rooted with super user
*busybox
*tweaked minifree settings
*advanced power options
*working ec09 browser downloads
*new market
*ads blocked by host file
*6th toggle added to status bar pulldown power controls (vibrate/sound)
*clean text on toggles (auto rotation to rotation, mobile data to data)

***SDCARD Stuff***
(This is only my opinion and may or may not help those with issues)
-i recommend properly mounting and unmounting your sdcard with each use...meaning dont just yank out the usb cord or reboot (recovery or otherwise) with the card mounted as a usb devices. Doesn't hurt anything to do this and *might* help keep your card intact.
-if you card gets borked (you see the blank sdcard/format message in android), first try and format in cwr, rather than in android or on your computer...fixed my card up, ymmv <-----nitsuj17's words!!!
Known Issues
*if you boot with usb plugged in, adb works, but debugging/usb storage wont show as available, unplug and replug ur connector
*ec09 eats sdcards...om nom nom
*MIUI lockscreen when plugged in will tend to run your processor at or near maximum mhz. (seems to do this on most phones)..you may choose not to use it when plugged in
*calendar fc on google cal apt ringtone notification (to fix this change from the default ringtone and you SHOULD be good to go)
*manage applications fc in settings
*MMS don't work for the Mesmerize yet, hopefully this will be fixed soon!!!​
***MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR SDCARD ON YOUR COMPUTER***

It's a fascinate test build of gingerbread TW and must have been completed around the same time our froyo got finished up.
Has anyone actually applied this? Why was this put here and not on rootz? What is the difference between this and MIUI or CM7?

After I have tried a lot of ROMs for the HTC Desire, and each one of them was perfect in another way, there was one kind of ROM I couldn't find: a ROM which is as small as possible, with Sense, and Gingerbread, and as clean as possible.
First of all: I am not an experienced developer, such as LeeDroid, or Coolexe (by the way, thanks a lot guys, loved your ROMs, and used each one of them without any issues, so kudos for your hard work!).
I'm just a 15-year old boy, who wanted to create a ROM which is as small as possible, but keeping Sense. If you have things to say like 'Loser, why would I flash this ROM, there are dozens of other ROMs', don't say anything at all.
However, if you have tips, questions, or think you can help me with this ROM, don't hesitate, and feel free to post!
About this ROM:
-Based on Gingerbread RUU from HTC for HTC Desire (Bravo)
-Bananacakes awesome new kernel (0.4), build by Sibere (0.4a), running on 1GHz, OC'able to 1.2.
-Su + Superuser + Busybox included
-Optional A2SD
-Removed a lot of stuff, resulting this ROM to be less than 120MB in size!
-Kept Sense, but some apps are removed (such as Stocks, Footprints, and Facebook, which you can download from the market anyway)
-Works on Stock HBOOT, and it should also work on Data++ or Bravo Sense (please post your experience with these 2 HBOOTs)
So, if you are looking for a lightweight version of Sense and Gingerbread, this is the ROM you're looking for. It may contain bugs, and I can not be held responsible for any damage. If you tell me about the bugs, I could try to fix them, but don't think I'm an expert with Android development, but I'll see what I can do.
To do:
-TrackballWake
-Perhaps create a special update.zip for some popular apps (filemanager, terminal, DSPManager)
-Fix the bootanimation (just a black screen at the moment, trying to find out how to fix it), the ROM boots just fine though
Removed:
-Apps you can install from the market (Facebook, Gmail, Flash, Flickr)
-Apps which have better alternatives (HTC Twitter)
-Apps which bugs a lot of users, even when they're not being used (HTC Stocks)
-Apps I simply don't like or use (Friendstream, Footprints)
-Apps of which I can't even come up with a reason why they would be installed by default (Polaris Office, if I'm right about the name)
-Live wallpapers which are pretty useless in my opinion (Smoke Wallpaper, Music Visualizations)
-HTC Sense Live Wallpaper, and the normal wallpaper is replaced
-Almost all ringtone/notification sounds, except for one in each category (the default ones)
Without further ado, here are the downloads:
Click here for the Non-A2SD build (version 1.5)
HBOOTs with 5MB cache won't work! Stock HBOOT or Bravo Sense HBOOTs will work fine, since they have a bigger cache (thanks Ronijs19!) For cMTD users: /system is 163MB in this build.
Click here for the A2SD build (version 1.5)
After you have installed the A2SD build, download a terminal emulator from the market and execute the following commands:
su
a2sd cachesd
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Your apps and the Dalvik Cache will be stored on EXT from now on.
Changelog:
1.5
-Updated kernel to 0.5 by Bananacakes
-Restored original framework (= original skin)
-Restored fonts (Ubuntu fonts took more space...)
1.4
New build of Bananacakes kernel, by Sibere, running on 1GHz, OC'able to 1,2.
Bootanimation is either ANDROID now, or still a black screen, bit confused about that due to a lot of builds..
New font, Ubuntu.
Also removed alarm and notifications tones except the default ones.
1.3
-Removed LiveWallpapers (every LWP except HTC Sense)
-Removed Mode10Wallpapers (the HTC Sense LWP)
-Replaced dock (used the one from the Slate theme for Sense 2.1)
-Replaced the default Sense wallpaper for a custom one
-ROMs will be uploaded onto our own server from now on, which means: no waiting, and direct links (thanks DonUber!)
1.2
-Removed FriendStream (Twitter and Facebook were removed anyway, so Friendstream was unusable)
-Removed all ringtones except for 1 (saved about 2MB)
-Swapped the ucsh00d_c.ttf font for DroidSans.ttf, saving about 3.5MB
-Swapped the gcsh00d-hkscs.ttf font for DroidSans.ttf, saving about 1MB
-Removed some images in /media/resources, saved about 500KB, since the images are never used in Android anyway, AFAIK
-Modified updater-script with some ui_prints to inform about the progress
-Bananacakes new kernel (0.4) implemented
-Two versions from now on: with A2SD, and without A2SD. In the version without A2SD, you can insert any A2SD script you would like (both versions have init.d support). Recommended HBOOTs are Stock or Data++ or Bravo Sense. I have only tested Stock though, so if you use another HBOOT, please post your results.
1.1
-Init.d Script Support
-A2SD (Darktremor Script) installed by default, should be working

Thanks to:
-DonUber, a good friend IRL, who always gives me tips and ideas for improving the ROM, thanks a lot mate!
-Koush, for his Anykernel Updater!
-Bananacakes, for his awesome kernel!
-Ronijs19, for tips and testing different HBOOTs.
-You, and every other user who uses this ROM!
Enjoy, and don't hesitate to ask questions or report bugs!
If you like my ROM, and you don't have a DropBox account yet, consider creating one by using my referral link, giving both of us an additional 250MB: Click here!
This is the theme that is being used in Flux 1.3 and higher. If you download Flux 1.2, you won't have this skin!
Thx dude, gonna try it.
Which base did you use? Stock Sense GB Rom?
(what? I'm the first one? Yupiiiii)
Yes, this ROM is based on the RUU, released by HTC on HTCdev.com. It is an official Gingerbread, which was a bit slimmed down by HTC, and I removed even more bloatware.
EDIT: I'm trying another way to get A2SD working, give me half an hour
EDIT2: A2SD working, get 1.1 now from the first post! Wipe recommended.

Nice, i have removed friend stream widget (hate it).
If more people want to see other widgets/apps removed, I could make a list, and also remove that apps if there are enough people who would like to remove it. Aside from that, I'll also make a script soon which allows you to remove even more apps.
Thanks for your response!
Hello.
Always nice to see both new developers in here, and continued ROM development for the Desire.
May I ask, are there any benefits to this ROM for someone like me who hasn't S-Off'd and just has the stock partition?

If you don't have S-OFF, this ROM is perfect for you, if you want your phone to be as clean as possible, and need space for apps. This ROM uses A2SD by default, and in combination with a 512MB/1024MB EXT-partition, you don't have to worry anymore about the space for apps (a Desire without A2SD has only 137MB on NAND for apps).
Aside from that, this ROM is smaller than an original one. The GingerBread RUU by HTC was already slimmed down, and was 150MB. I removed even more bloatware, or unnecessary apps (such as HTC Stocks, which keeps running and bugs a lot of users), resulting in a ROM which is only 120MB. Even CyanogenMod is 90MB, so this ROM is really lightweight, since it has only approx. 30MB difference with an AOSP ROM.
In other words: no tweaks and modifications, just a ROM meant to be as stable and fast as possible, and without the bunch of apps most of the users won't use anyway, or they have alternative apps.

Click to expand...

The skin is the same as a normal Sense ROM for the Desire (so it's just as the stock ROM). The performance is really good, I haven't noticed any lag or anything like that yet, and it is running pretty stable until now.
I'll post tomorrow evening about the battery consumption, as the most recent build I made was about 2 hours ago, so I couldn't really test it yet.
I will make a skin though, and I hope to finish it in about a week.
Ok thanks....
So after boot and A2SD+ initiates, how much memory would I have free?
After you have installed the ROM, and have an EXT-partition, all your apps which you install will be placed on the EXT-partition. This means the available space is the same as the size of the EXT-partition.
My Desire said I had 80MB free after a flash, because the Dalvik Cache is still on the NAND of the phone. I also moved that to the EXT by installing a Terminal Emulator, and executing the commands:
su
a2sd cachesd
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After which your phone will reboot. No matter how much apps you install now, your phone will always say you have 137MB available, because everything is being stored on the EXT-partition on your SD-card.
To use A2SD:
Boot in recovery, and partition your SD-card with an EXT-partition (512MB or 1024MB should be enough). Keep in mind partitioning removes all your data and formats your SD-card. Then copy the ROM ZIP to the root of the SD by using the USB Storage Function in recovery, and install it by using recovery. Then reboot, and A2SD will be enabled and your phone will boot in less than 5 minutes (only the first time, after the first boot it will startup much faster). During boot you'll get a black screen, it is completely normal. To use the EXT-partition for Dalvik Cache also, use the 2 commands I mentioned earlier in this post, and you should be ready

I appreciate the efforts, but I am actually very experienced in that sense. I know perfectly well the A2SD commands and how it works All I wanted to know was the 137mb figure
PS: It isn't correct to say "No matter how much apps you install now, your phone will always say you have 137MB available". The memory will still go down even with A2SD+ installed and davlik cache to sd. It just doesn't go down as much.
Hi Chaos,
Why not just use a2sd script from Oxygen rom? I'm using it on all roms including CM7, MIUI. Leaving dalvik cache on nand with cm7r2 hboot. Much smaller then dt version.
Is your rom deodexed or odexed?
Some proposals:
-add new kernel from bananacakes (modified original GB Sense kernel, sources also available in post).
-Please add trackpad2wake also.
And kind request, what is removed or what is left inside?
Thanks!

You're right, it does go down, but since your apps, the dalvik cache and the cache are being stored on the EXT-partition, the NAND is almost untouched by apps I think. Not sure though, I don't know a lot about the A2SD scripts.

Trackpad2Wake is a function I also used a lot myself, so I will implement it soon
The new kernel by Bananacakes: if I see positive results by other users, and people like it, I will build it in.
And the ROM is deodexed
About the Oxygen A2SD script: I'll see what I can do, and maybe implement a feature to choose the desired script for A2SD.
Thanks a lot for your interest guys, I really appreciate it!
your rom is a perfect! dsp manger?
I'll see how much space it takes, and I'll either make a flashable ZIP to install it automatically, or if there are lots of people interested in it, I'll implement it in the ROM itself

Just one thing.... if you are really wanting to attract people in and get them downloading, I'm certain having a screenshot would help with that. And maybe update the OP with some of the information like the above ^, about what is removed etc etc.
Good luck Thanks

I have some work to do for school, which should be finished in about 15 minutes, and then I'll update the OP and add screenshots of the current interface.
In about 1 week I'll release an update with a really nice skin (in my opinion), and I think that will make the ROM a bit more unique

Re Uploaded with errors fixed...
Hello all! I present to you, my 2nd attempt at ROM Modding (first on ICS)... thoughtfully named SlimCyan9.
Yeah, it is inspired by the SlimICS ROM available for SGS II.. but the OP has mentioned of no ports...
So i made my own! This is not in any way related to his ROM, which i have never used, because i'm not too rich!
I always prefer to thank some people first... as you may or may not know... And that is because im still learning stuff, esp related to compiling from source...
Thanks and credits:-

Changelogs, if they ever happen,will be posted here.
A newer version is on my mind, but not before December.
Instructions and Tips&Tricks
Instructions:-
FOLLOW THEM AS IT IS OTHERWISE A FAIR CHANCE OF STRUCK AT SPLASHSCREEN OR BOOTLOOP
WISE PEOPLE CREATE A NANDROID BEFORE DOING ANYTHING
If you are on ANY CM9 build by LIROKOA:- (Group 1)
Reboot to recovery, Flash Slim Cyan 9, wipe cache, reboot.
If you are on any other ROM except lirokoa's CM9:- (Group 2)
Reboot to recovery
Flash Slim Cyan 9
Flash Original apk's .zip
Wipe Data/factory reset
Reboot
Finish the setup and everything...
Reboot to recovery
Flash ROM again. NO NEED FOR A WIPE NOW
Reboot
Post Flashing, Post Booting instructions:-
Since the DPI is changed to 145 to make CM theme engine compatible with nearly all the available cm9 themes,
Phone.apk keeps on crashing, when making or receiving calls.
The only feasible fix was using the included Jellybean theme.
So, Settings>themes>Jellybean> APPLY ANYWAY...
Run terminal to bring back the status bar... YOU JUST NEED TO RUN IT, any notification in status bar will do...
USB plugged message will do too!
Oh, and once you have applied the JB theme and rebooted your phone, EVERY theme will work properly without any FC on phone.apk.
Just don’t apply the Default system theme.
If you have upgraded from cm9 build, you may want to try the Slim Cyan ringtone.
This is set as default for people of the group 2
Optional is the Ubuntu Fonts pack, of which I’m a fan of... Flash via recovery, if you like open source too!
These fonts suit lower density better too! Roboto looks a bit pinched.
You need to Activate S2E if moving from any ROM not using S2E...
If you were using d2ext or ungaze or anything else, I’d recommend a clean install, EVEN if you were on cm9...
How to activate S2E:-
Make sure you are running a SD card partitioned via Yannou's recovery... I can’t help more than this.
Open S2E settings, Mount as ext4, set read buffer is optional.... works for me
Reboot
Reopen S2E... Options should now be available... tick em all and reboot.
Profit
If you are having problems in getting the device booted up, then the best advice from my side is, "GTF back to stock"
If you make a nandroid of Slim Cyan... IT IS POSSIBLE THAT because of handicapped systemui.apk, the phone may end up in a boot loop.
So I suggest you to download the original apk's.zip JUST IN CASE.
Want to make Slim Cyan even closer to the smoothness of Project Butter?
DONT USE ANY CPU-HOGGING APPS LIKE FACEBOOK OR WHATSAPP... BEST ADVICE!
Settings> Developer options> Show all ANR tick> kill app back button tick
Developer options> transition animation and window animation scale to 1.5x
Performance> CPU > Governor=interactive and set on boot tick
Performance> Memory> zRam> 18% or 26% and tick Purging of assets, if not...
Apex Settings> behavior> animation style> Jellybean
Reboot to slip on your phone...
I CAN GURANTEE that in stock Slim Cyan 9 Condition, after finishing the instructions and the tips and tricks, without using any bloat apps,
(For devs, without using terminal commands or any other funny things), YOU CANNOT HANG THE PICO.PERIOD.
At least, I was not able to do it...

Post The Screenshots

Since you say that you have Gapps included, and , that the ROM is pretty slim, I would like to install and see how "slim" it is. Upload as soon as possible.:good:
P.S: Really hope there is a lot of free space too.
I am not removing what I wrote above but, I would like to suggest you to not include G-Apps in Cyanogen. Cyanogen is meant to be open-source. also, by including gapps, you are infringing the copyright of google.
How much internal memory after installed??

Display density
So, does display density of 145 mean lowering of display quality than cm9#8?
And is the bluetooth bug which was eating the battery fixed?
Would love to try out the rom.
Its amazing that a phone like HTC explorer too has such a strong dev network!
Waiting too.
Does internet pass through available in this ROM?
nic work......:good:

You should remove the gapps and put it in an alternate zip if you don't want Google having you for lunch.
