If I understood right this is just a patch, not the full ROM.
(Update: No you can’t, my bad. That is a patch zip, not a full. BUT .. I’m working on fixing that. I got my hands on a system dump and built an update.zip for you guys.)

The download was over 30mb and does appear to be the full rom. There is another update on the blog, which is smaller and is to be applied after the full rom. I applied the full update and my phone is showing itself as an ION

I just applied this too, on top of Haykuro's 6.0. I had to do a factory reset afterwards as the onscreen keyboard wasn't working.
This has added:
Voice Dialer
Voice Search
Amazon MP3
and probably other stuff that wasn't on the Vodafone Magic before.
Still no Exchange ActiveSync

I have the same exchange issue. Using touchdown right now which is working very well.
Rom is really FAST..!!

did you "wipe" before install the update?are you still having root now?
i just update to ion but now cannot sign in to google to sync.
i am on vodafone.

hey guys, i'll release a rooted ion rom for you when i'm home

Nooo its not christmas yet but lets have it Haykuro! Does it support MS exchange??

You have to add accesspoint manually..

deleted.
sorted

I've managed to install Google ION on my magic, avoiding to replace "recovery.img" deleting it in the zip file and resigning the file using this tool
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=473580
once I've renamed the zip file in "update.zip" I've used the recovery and all ok
- the boot is faster, as in the vodafone version of the firmware
- there is voice call and voice search
- root using "su" command from shell
bye

Does seem faster.
I have to say, I prefer not having multi-touch brower. The zoom is so slow on the multi-touch-esque browser that's it's better to have no accidental zoom when you want to pan instead.

any screnshots ???

PD: thx to Haykuro for "cooking" all rom's!!!

Haykuro you are a beautiful person I will be a first time android user when I get my Ion next week, super excited about it!
Do google adp phones come pre-rooted, or is that something you still need to do. I understand that the bootloader allows for unsigned roms, so it wouldn't an issue to change it up. I was just curious if this vanilla rooted ion rom you are releasing would be appropriate, or does it have changes that make it work on standard sapphires?
Thanks again!

hello
must my magic be rooted to intall de ion rom?

[APP-HACK][SENSE] No text reflow on pinch-to-zoom in browser

hate the text reflow on pinch-to-zoom in the htc stock browser?
found the hidden setting (about:debug, menu - more - settings - enable gep zoom), but it doesn't persist across reboots / full browser restarts?
this hack is for you
changes:
setting persists, you don't have to always go into debug mode to re-enable it
browser defaults to no reflow
double-tap-to-zoom is unaffected by this
requirements:
htc sense based desire (froyo) rom
deodexed framework libs/system apps
how to install:
please make sure your device/setup meets the requirements above
check your framework build number (settings >> about phone >> software information >> build number)
download the archive (zip) that matches your build number
copy it to your sdcard and flash it in recovery mode (as always, it is advisable to do a nandroid backup prior flashing)
enjoy

Nice work!
Have been looking for this for a long time since I hate the text reflow in the browser that cause the position of the web page shift unexpectedly after zoom in.
Would like to know if it is possible to make a generic patch for all rom version?
Thanks!

It jumps less unexpectedly if you let the page load completely before zooming in.

i haven't looked if there are differences in the code of the browser across froyo builds yet, but even if there were, modifiying the patch in the second post shoudn't be a problem
i'm off to germany today, should be back on thursday - i'll look into it then

I personally have long awaited for a such mod
snq- for the win !

Whao! I was wondering why my Youtube video count went up suddenly.
Thanks for the embed snq I'm sure a lot of people will appreciate your mod (I don't have an Evo anymore so I can't try for myself unfortunately)

I don't get it, when I used OpenDesire which is without Sense i still got pinch-to-zoom text reflow, was it using the sense browser or does normal browser got this as well?

before flashing may I ask you about the differences between patch from the fist post and the second one?
thanks

I see in your signature that your are using OD , which is an AOSP rom , not with HTC SENSE...why would you try a htc sense hack on a rom that has no htc sense ,beats me..Its normal to get trouble.
If you manage to get a browser session up type in the adress bar
"about:debug" without the quotes and enter it.
then try going to settings and find in the new options menu Enable GEP zoom..
Tell us if unticking this makes any difference..
I strongly advise you read before you flash anything..

Iwasant see that hack is for sence ROM,only
but Nandrid & all is back..hire all is experimental,or I`m wrong

How can I use this patch please ? Do I flash the .7z as a .zip, or just the .patch as a .zip ?
Thanks for helping.

just use rom manager to flash the .zip from the first post

i correctly flashed this file TWO times and it doesn't remember the setting between reboot, any idea?

Does this work with the Evo, specifically Fresh 3.3 which is a sense froyo rom?

Hope the experts can fix the things which are not working....(cam, sound..)

nice work, the camera seems to be an issue with rooted 2.2 only.
maybe try flashing a ROM that isnt rooted, if such a thing exists

my fingers are shaking...shall I try? Why you've chosen this rom and no other Droid 2 rom?

Hello, I just tried the files here:

But it did not work, is there any chance that I can watch flash content on the phone using Eclair? thanks!

Hello,
You can install it properly but your browser won't be able to make a link between browsing and flash since proper extensions are missing.
You should go to a 2.2 rom which will bring you speed, fluidity and flash and jit (natively) and more...

[ROM/MOD 4.0.4] Multi-lang based on marius 3.5 ROM with good video recording, v3.5.2

This is a modified version of marius 4.0.4 ROM from here with a MULTI-LANG
I've just took the last 3.5 deodexed version and added languages to all applications I was able to, so it's now fully multi-lang version. I've been using it for the last 2-3 weeks and I've found following issues (they are the same as in 3.5 version):
- MMS work, but I was able to send MMS only when using 2G, so I guess it could be marked as solved
- Calendar don't work - THIS IS NOT TRUE!!!!!
But just in case I've removed the google calendar app from this ROM, you can install it from Play Store. Then after upgrading all Google apps you should be able to synchronize your calendar. If you still have problems with synchroniztion just go simply into Settings/Account settings and uncheck/check calendar synchronization few times, it will start working after few tries (even up to 10 tries). You could have the same problem with contact synchronization, but just do the same thing as with calendar.
- Battery is another problem. For me the phone didn't worked longer then 24hrs (battery is quite new - 6 months), I wasn't able to do anything about this, as far as I've found in marius thread this is one of the problem that others also have, so I guess it will have to stay like this.
- I wasn't able to install any of Backup applications (Titanium Backup, My backup PRO, ...). To solve this you will have to install the app from recovery (works for 100%).
- I didn't have time to check other things.
DO A FULL WIPE before upgrading from 3.5.1 to 3.5.2.
Here is an installation instruction, if you want this ROM working do it STEP BY STEP:
1. Download ROM from here
2. Download SMS/MMS application (I've simply forgot to add it to ROM, so there is the old not multilang version) here
3. Reboot to recovery.
4. Perform a full wipe (except SD card of course)
5. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT STEP - reboot the phone to recovery before installing the ROM (4ext has such options in Power Menu, I don't know if other recoveries have it) - If you install the ROM right after wiping the old one without reboot you have 90% of chances that after the phone boots up you will have a lot of FCs from some google apps, reboot solves this problem.
6. Install ROM - after installation phone will be rebooted and you will have to configure it for the first time (multilang since 3.5.2)
7. If you get a lot of FCs after reboot do a full wipe again, recovery reboot (try to do this twice) and install ROM once again.
8. Install SMS/MMS app, I've forgot to add the multilang version to ROM, I will fix that in next release.
OPTIONAL:
9. Download DaemonController from here and adjust your CPU settings.
10. If you prefer the launcher that is in default 3.5 ROM you can download it from here
ONE MORE IMPORTANT THING!!!!!
If after adding a google account you see a lot of FCs from Play Store, Talk ... don't worry about that. Just reboot your phone and open those apps at least one time, then the FCs are gone.

Changelog:
version 3.5.2 9/7/2014
- No separate multilang package, all is now included in 1 zip file
- No only-Polish version will try to build one if I find some time for it, better don't use the lang package from 3.5.1 because it has unsigned apps.
- MMS are working now, you have to use 2G when sending a MMS, works for me
- You can backup and restore your ROM from recovery now without the bootloop (all apps and framework have been re-signed)
version 3.5.1 - First release. 25/6/2014

TODO:
1. Replace settings with the one from default ICS ROM - still got a lot of FC's
2. Replace systemui with the one from default ICS ROM - still got a lot of FC's
3. you tell me, and I look at it in a free time (I don't have it much)

Like I've already wrote, This is a modified version of marius 4.0.4 with a MULTI-LANG. The only things I did was to change the launcher and recompiled all apps with more languages. So I guess it has the same problems as marius ROM. Like I wrote, the base of the ROM wasn't changed. Try installing alogcat and look what is causing problems. As for cracked apps, installing them from recovery solves installation problem, the same as with Titanium Backup and MyBackup PRO which I'm using.

Thanks for your contribution to the best working ICS rom out there!
Are you able to revert the status bar back to stock ICS?

Hey mesiu84 you are :good: :good: :good: :good:
Could you remove the chinees language too,or guide me how to do that, so the rom size in system partition become smaller
At present time, I am focusing on this rom try to find solutions for bugs, I believe this rom will be stable and fast comparing with others.

Removing different languages takes some time, I've used apktool to decompress and build each apk file from marius ROM. I wouldn't like to do that once again I think this have to stay like this, unless you want to do this on your own, it took me almost 3 days to find the translations for all apps and recompress them once again.

Successor is QISS Media. Do you write them?
As I recall, they never release the source code. I suppose because it could reveal something, which no one wanted to.
The remains of the project for Bravo remained at code.google.com
Maybe I helped a little.
