Have any of you guys flashed both this and noobnl's ROM? Currently Im running noobnls and its pretty stable so for. But it still has TouchWiz. So since Boss is suppose to run stock, can any of you tell me if Boss is as bug free as noobnls?

What custom kernel does this rom have. When I check settings>about phone>kernel version it says 2.6.29. Isn't that the stock kernel for DI07 or am I mistaking?

Since Andromeda Galaxy has shown me bad battery life thus far, I'll be testing this out when I get home. Is it based off of DI07? I know it says newest OTA in the OP, but I wanna be sure.

Is this kernel better than the stock one? noobnl said the stock one was better than his in his own thread or is this a new one?

I tried to flash this 4 times and it flashed ok. However, the problem that I'm running into is that my apps does not reinstall. I tried Mybackup Pro as well as Titanium backup. I even manually re-installed all my apps from the market. On all occasions, i get the message that everything was restored. But when I go to my app drawer none of my apps are there. I turn the phone off then back on and i get a black screen with the capacitive buttons lite up and it doesn't go any further than that.
have anyone else ran into this problem?

Was your last rom deodexed?

New thread for this ROM and version...

Are most of the blurs gone like the epic ROM? or perhaps even more blurs has beeen removed?
Sent from my DROID2 using Tapatalk

Blur really isn't bad at all in this version. I've seen no excess battery drain whatsoever.

hey MotoBoy can you attach your modified build.prop where you changed all r2d2>droid2?

Let me rephrase that...not all of them are gone but just a few left over.
It is as close to aosp vanilla that you can get so far with this ROM.

Thanks for the fast reply! I think im going to go with this since Epic 3.0 isnt out yet. im going to flash this as soon as possible

Market
Thanks for posting the files and instructions. This is awesome.
I noticed (accidentally) that some items are missing from the Market after performing this modification. I do not use any of the missing items, but I thought I'd let you know.
I was searching for a weather app, and MyCast does not come up. Pure Calendar is also missing. I only noticed because I usually see them there when searching, so I am not sure of any others. I also tried searching for the 2 apps by name, and they were missing.
I apologize in advance if this is a situation that is only applicable to myself and/or if this is the wrong place to post potential bugs.

you will need to edit the build.prop as the r2-d2 is not yet released.

edit: flash unsuccessful, after I wiped Cache and Data, then flashed the zip file, my root was gone, no superuser permission, all the bloat is back

Like the same non R2D2 ROM?

* update - clean rom, will try pushing the apk from full rom in the am.
Can't get swype to work. Doesn't even show up as an option. Did I do something wrong? If not is there a way to get it back up and running?
* fixed - thank you motaboy for the quick response. Simply pulled apk from full rom, then installed through app manager on astro. So far it is working, no need for a root file manager at least for me.
Feel kind of stupid since this turned out to be so easy to fix .

No keeping all the r2d2 stuff and just removing most of the blur except the phone contacts and camera.

Are you using the Full or Clean ROM?
If clean it is not in there. Open the Full ROM Zip file, go into the system/app folder, copy skype to your SD card on phone, use root explorer or a browser that can browse the system folder to copy the skype.apk to system/app on phone. Give it the proper permissions, and you should be set if you are running the clean rom. If not then it should be under keyboards in settings. You may need to enalbe it from there.

I tried to edit the two lines in buld.prop for market fix but some apps were still not showing up. Not sure if it needs more edits or what is up. I deleted cache and data from market before I checked with new build.prop. I am sure I did it wrong
EDIT:
I think I used the keys for 2.3.15 and I recall the same issue. Let me try with the shipping keys...
# Do not try to parse ro.build.description or .fingerprint
ro.build.description=cdma_droid2-user 2.2 VZW 2.2.90 ota-rel-keys,release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/droid2_vzw/cdma_droid2/droid2:2.2/VZW/22.90:user/ota-rel-keys,release-keys
I tired with those keys but did not work, what else needs to be changed?

Battery draing fast
Has anyone experienced battery draining faster with the R2D2 rom? Mine is dying almost 2x faster then when i had my original ROM installed. Any ideas why this could be?

New update is sick! Kinda Xbox looking.
A smartphone is not very smart in the hands of an idiot.

No matter what I do, the new market always force closes on me. Anyone know why? Running CM 6.1 and trued flashing it and installing apk and its always a no go.

im having the same problem idk why..

I'm running stock Rom rooted & tried it out & it works great. I like the whole look of the market I'm just wondering if this is how the markets going to look on Gingerbread
Swyped by Gatordon & his Evo

awsome!!! love the new look

Here are two more on post's 56 and 57. Also has the older one if you keep getting fc's. The one on post 57 works for me on Fresh 3.3

It's really weird. It seems to work for me... loading all the scrolling things on top, but right before it loads the icon images for the apps on the main page it force closes.

follow these steps and it should work fine
1. go to menu>settings>manage applications>all
2. select Market
3. force stop
4. clear data
5. reboot recovery
6. clear cache and Dalvik-cache
7. flash the new market
8. reboot
FC problems solved

t3 i followed ur steps and still get the fc's. Perhaps its rom related? Warm here

Do you know where this is available? I had a black themed market for the old one by slayer69...tried reflashing after updating the market and no dice. Can you post the link to his post?

For those having an issue, I simply installed this apk using astro...don't see a reason to flash.
I am using Azrael X v2.1 rom without a problem.

heres the link for the themed version haven't tried it tho:

Using CM6.1 I have used every method under the book mentioned in a bunch of different threads but I simply cannot get it to load up without an FC. I guess I'll wait until I get the OTA!

how do you get market apps that are unavailable to KF

Hi,
This is a subject that came up while discussing something else in another post, but it's important to me so I hope posting it here will be helpful both for me and others.
Many times, apps that are available in the Market state that they are uncompatibale with kindle Fire. When I got the apk file from another source, I was able to install it on my rooted KF with no problems whatsoever.
I don't know why this happens, but I understood (from the other thread) that the device's ID cand be changed so that the Market thinks it's a different device and will let me download and install the app.
How can I do that? I have the original KF without any ROM changed, only rooted.
If someone could post directions as to how this could be done (newbie level, please...) it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Yossi

Thank you.
It seems the solution in the thread only works on nonstock Kindle Fire.
I haven't changed the rom on KF and don't really want to do that unless I have no choice.
Is there another way?

You could try sideloading your apps but I recommend rooting or installing a ROM based off stock like MoDaCo.

The problem with the default Kindle ROM is that the bar at the bottom is oversized like two times compared to the default Android one. A lot of apps are perfectly fine on the Kindle, but there are some that get cut off because of that bar. So because of that, they simply don't mark it as compatible. If we had a fullscreen option globally, it wouldn't be a problem.

I tried this, gave up and installed Gede's ICS.
Every time I tried to download & install an app with Google Play It would crash. I tried uninstalling, installing from KFU, fixing permisions with the TW recovery and still would crash.
The other issue with using the stock kindle and root is your Build.prop may prevent you from getting many things that you may want to run that the kindle may be capable of running but can't due to restrictions set by the dev.
