It might brick your phone, it might permanently break 4G, it might kill your kitten.
I take no responsibility for any problems from this ROM, including but not limited to poor reception, deleting your entire Facebook account, or causing nuclear warfare.
It is also not much of an original work. I basically just get my kanging on with some ROMs before I load them, and someone had mentioned they might be interested.
Basically I am an AOSP fan, and really liked Bugless Beast 0.4. As bugs were found and Pete moved away from the EVO tjohnsonjr's NonSense became the spiritual successor for some of us. This ROM just takes it a small step further.
Removed
- Device Self Service
- Boot up sound
Added
- AOSP Calendar
- Eliot Stocker Music app (from CM and DC)
- BB v.4 launcher and home
- Bugless Beast Tips
- I put the Adobe Flash apk in, haven't tested it yet
- Quick Boot
- Spare Parts
- multitouch keyboard (also has AOSP and HTC IME)
- Lots of FCs
Uninstallable
- Beast Tips
- Adobe Flashplayer <- might or might not work
- quickboot
- Corp Cal
- ES File Explorer
- HTC Photo Album <- might break something
- Spare Parts
- Sprint TV
- Sprint VVM
- Weather <- might break something
I left the HTC browser, because it will still support double tap to resize, and the HTC copy and paste tool. It just sucks that it only allows 4 tabs. I did not put in a lot of the stuff people typically put in like Rom Manager, Titanium Backup, etc. since they will be out of date so soon anyway.
I have been mostly using CM6 instead of this, and had to kinda remake it, and it isn't very well tested. In fact I am currently in Mexico on vacation so I haven't been able to test the phone or data connections.
If you find something wrong, just post it here so I can ignore it, or maybe make fun of you. If it breaks your phone, you are welcome to whine here. If you post your mailing address I will either send a new phone to you to replace it, or stick a smelly dead fish in your mailbox, or not do anything at all. More than likely the last option.
I don't know why you would want to run this instead of a smooth running ROM that has actually had bugs fixed and won't FC every 3 minutes. CM6 is really strong as a 2.2 right now, and the official 2.2 is kinda out/will be out for real in days. DC and Fresh and NonSense and Baked Snack and many others are killer 2.1 ROMs that give you more features, stability, and battery life than stock. I sure don't plan to run this, or support it. Those guys really know what they are doing.... I can't even figure out how to change the default wallpaper without breaking stuff.
This ROM is just lame.
If you are still interested I suggest talking to a doctor. And you can grab it from the link right here.
Of course a big thanks to all the people I have totally mooched off of. I'm missing some, but off the top of my head.

If this is merely bb4 without the awake bug, I want it. Any word on that?

It's not really BB 4, but I THINK it won't have the awake bug. The awake bug seems to have something to do with all the stuff he pulled out. The NonSense ROM is much more conservative on what it removes (HTC Dialer is still in there for instance).
What do people like about Bugless Beast? The more I know what in particular to bring over, the better this will be.
I could also try to grab BBv4 and fix it, but it is pretty old at this point (pre 1.47) and it doesn't seem worth the effort.
That said, if I keep this going it will more than likely become a CM6 base with tweaks, since it is true AOSP, not just sense with AOSP apps hacked in.

As long as someone at least got a giggle out of the OP, even if no one runs the ROM, it is a success.
What do you guys want out of a Froyo build that isn't already in CM6? Things are too crazy at work right now to have something out very soon, but I'm game to do more. I just don't know what AOSP people want that isn't already in CM.

2.2 is stable, and what most of us run now. You can get a fix to those issues by reading the topic, those files have been posted you just need to push them to your phone.
*Edit* and that sucks that threads, closed; i just noticed that. At least we got a nice fix up to our system before losing more support. I think that this new LG coming out is really going to hamper development for the gs4, which is a shame because this is a nice phone.

Nothing wrong with trying version 2.0 or 2.1
Personally I like 2.2 but I need to return the phone to the store next weekend so I would like to have 2.1 or 2.0
Right now with 2.2 I have 220MB of FREE RAM (which is pretty neat)
With 1.9 I had 200MB
So yeah for 10MB-20MB I would stay hours testing and testing
I think it's worth it since the thing I like the least about Android is the lack of memory and the apps that automatically run
It's insane killing them
I've tried at least 10 programs that auto-kill, none of them works perfect
So that's why I REALLY appreciate 2.2 for now
There is one that has zero Bloatware, for sure I'd like to test that, I believe it was 2.0

I run autokiller memory operator on both mine and my g/f's gs4s and I don't have any memory issues. I already pm'd you with a link to the topic you should visit to return to stock. As far as removing bloat goes, I prefer 2.2 having it all because the roms released without the bloat had issues sycing facebook and twitter correctly and had other issues as well. I have titanium backup, if its an app i dont want--its important to know what an app does before you remove it--then that program will rip it right out. Works great for moving apps to sdcard as well.

The problem with Titanium Backup is that the apps in
/system/apps/
are never backed up (only the data)
I have uninstalled A LOT of Bloatware and my device has 400MB+ of system storage
220MB of RAM
I'm really proud of the knowledge I have acquired, really thankful to XDA as well

G2X Rom Comparison Chart

I have started a comparison chart for the currently available ROM's for the G2X. Since we are just getting started with this device it seems like a great time.
I have made the spreadsheet editable by anyone, I encourage and would appreciate any help with keeping it current. I also do not mind any improvements you see fit, such as adding or changing columns, conditional formatting etc. I just put this together in the time I had available today and it is a rough draft. I know some of you here have much more experience in using Google docs and making something like this so do your thing! I'd like this to be a community project.
PLEASE do not intentionally falsify any information or in any way harm the integrity of this project, we all benefit from this site and there is nothing funny about ruining this for others. Also, I will make a nightly backup.
I can't seem to embed this into the post so here is a link.

Bionix has kernel .1.1 according to its changelog?

It seems you are trying to make a point or something with the voodoo lagfix?
If none of the phones have it, why would there be a column then?? The column would only be necessary if one of the roms had it. Why put it in there?

We will never have a lag-fix as we already have a great file system (ext3 and ext4) only reason that would be needed is for Samsungs ****ty rfs file system. Might as well remove it from the chart
Good comparison chart though. ^^
Edit: Oh and mine does have spare parts, boot and shutdown animation changed as well

You know what, I actually re-flashed my old vibrant for the wife to use the same day I flashed my first ROM onto this phone so I remembered hearing the lagfix lady while I was flashing a ROM on here and so I thought.. well, maybe it was a little late when I put this together. Column removed.
Once again, if there is something silly like this that you guys see please feel free to make the change, I'm not claiming ownership of this spreadsheet.

Hi tweezit! Thanks for taking the time to reply. I am running your ROM now and its sexy Updated your info.
Removed the lagfix column, I guess it had just become a permanent part of my psyche.
Should I replace with a file system column (ext3 or ext4)? Or is that not important?
Also, is it safe to assume everyone is running the same base band at the moment?

Good topic

My ROM info is lacking
Stock launcher2
Included: T-mobile Theme Manager/Chooser, SpareParts, FileManager, Torch, DSP Manager, ROM Manager and WiFi Calling.
Kernel is 2.6.32.41 with latest patches, updates, OC/UV etc etc
Anyways, hope this will make the ROM less of a mystery

Thanks for the info faux! I promise its nothing personal that yours was lacking. I actually think your ROM is brilliant, and your a bit of a genius![/suckup] I'm just sticking to froyo for now.
I really appreciate you guys (devs) posting in here. I've been working long days I just wanted to get this out there even as a really rough draft so it didn't just become a bigger and bigger task I don't get around to. I

Added Gigglebread and File System column.
Thanks to everyone who has edited with more info!

This is going to sound petty, but can we add a column for HD recording support? I know the leaked build doesn't support it (that's why I went back to stock), do any of the custom ROMs support it yet that are not Froyo-based? I presume all froyo ROMs would support HD recording with the LG camera apk.

[SOLVED] Can I Copy Spare Parts from CM7 to Infused?

What kind of problems would I be looking at if I copied/installed the Spare Parts apk from CM7 over to the Infused v2.0.2 ROM? Would it work or would it seriously screw me up? I'm only interested in getting it because I have screen density set to 200 right now and some of my apps don't fit the entire screen. I've found fixes on a couple of the apps, but not all. I remember on my Aria there was an option I chose in spare parts and it forced everything to resize. I think it was the compatibility mode setting. I don't want to install CM7 just yet. Waiting on bluetooth support.
BTW, I did search first but didn't find the answer in any other forum. However, my search-fu is kinda weak. lol
Thanks for any help!

The market version has advertisements added. Really shady if you ask me, taking a free open source app, putting ads into it, and then throwing it up on the market.

Corrected from "major" to what "I consider major bloat"

Well, at least it's an honest kang.
Why would I use this over, say, deck or OMGB, or even the splendid SalvageMod?
P.S. You can't include gapps baked in, unless you want a nastygram from Google.

not sure about the evo, but on nexus s if you remove rom manager from cm7, then install it from the market, it fc's.

If Vaelpak doesn't want to respect Google's request, that is up to him/her. Is there a thread for Vaelpak GB on XDA?
I doubt Google is going to hunt down everyone to the ends of the earth for baking in their apps. I just know from experience that XDA respects licenses and will close threads that can lead them into legal trouble.

The down votes, I guess, are because anyone can delete some .apk files and add the few simple things OP added (probably with dsixda's kitchen).

Oh well, at least i'm trying, and not just leeching, lol.
Just because i'm removing apk's doesn't make me anyless then someone just adding apk's and adding a theme.
Just doing the opposite.
