First off am I the only one that wishes the original opengl would stick? Performance was alot better for that one (especially for the nexus wallpaper). Is getting the performance of the original live wallpaper we had and the sticking of the new patch possible? Right now that is the only problem stopping my phone from being the sex.
EDIT: Problem seems to happen when another widget is updated. Its not perfectly smooth, but not bad, but when a widget updates it really slows down the wallpaper to a noticeable halt. I doubt im the first to notice this, but for anyone else that really wants nexus wallpaper, having less widgets on your main page seems to help.
I moved the news+weather widget you see below to another page and it seems to jitter less.
I agree. Losing the performance from the new OpenGL isn't worth having LWP's. They might have a fix for this when Toast's Awesome Sauce ROM is complete.

Ive wanted them ever since i saw them and i think its pretty awesome
that we can run them @ all on a phone that has half the horsepower
as their intended to run on. be happy you have the option. If you like
them i dont really exp all this slowdown everyone is crying about now
that they work, and its not like a bounty hunting sprint dealer is going to
hunt you down and put them in your phone.........so the choice is yours
but no sense in being anything other than greatful for what we have atm
unless you have something to help us improve the issue as it stands.
Maybe you could try to solve the issue for us rather than wasting your time
posting about waiting for the devs who do for free to come up with the
next great fix.Good Luck with your waiting.....Ill be busy asking questions
and doing research to find answers and fixes to my issues. And Yes if i wasnt
happy with them so far thats what id be doing but i got my victory about
1 week ago when i stumbled across someone in another forum with the
patch for them to stick on another phone. My goal was getting them to
stick....and im very happy with what i have now. With that ability we
can now have FULL FUNCTION roms, which we couldnt do before.

Yeah I disagree with "there is no point in having them if it is slower".......the patch works pretty dam well with most wallpapers its just the peski nexus being alittle to slow to be usable for me. MagnusRagnarok my OP was not an attack on you at all. I am extremely thankful for what you have done, and hope you have not taken my post that way. I am just trying to see if more people feel the same way as me. For me getting the nexus one wallpaper running alittle bit better would get me closer to completing my phone.
Ill bump since I edited my first post. Hopefully someone finds it helpful.

Hey guys, I know a lot of us have been dying to get the nexus wallpaper working without having to do the opengl fix to make wallpapers stick, seeing as it made the wallpaper ran really choppy. I found a way to get it to stick, run smooth, and not have to change the opengl. I used the update zip posted by emerica6541 and it stuck right on and have ran smooth ever since. Granted he did modify the wallpaper so the lights are smaller, but I think it looks better that way on our heroes due to the smaller screen. It has survived multiple reboots, and over 30 mins of sleep time. I am running darch's legend rom though, so I'm not sure if this will work for damage's or flipz's roms, but its worth a shot.

Thank you very much for the post. I have tried flashing that before and it did not seem to work (this is on a fresh build). Ill try again, if not maybe a kind soul could look at it and see how to port onto fresh/damage build.
This is the point of the thread, not to shoot down other's hard work but to improve on it....I think thats what xda is about.

Just a note though, when you first set the wallpaper, your phone will freeze for a min, then it'll take you to the bootscreen. Once it reloads, you should be good to go.

I had it on my sd. Sadly it does not seem to make any difference. It is smooth enough (alittle bit jittery but not too bad) but once a widget updates it stops just like the other version of nexus wallpaper.

Hmm, that's odd. Are you running the new opengl fix to get the other wallpapers to stick? Because I am still running the old opengl that came standard on darch's Rom.

Oh no, i am running the new openGL. I will try the old one thanks! Should have read your original post better.
One thing that is weird is that the LWP stick with the old openGL if its plugged into the computer. Does the phone not sleep if its plugged into a computer?

Well your right, so I used the old openGL and performance was alot better, BUT it did not stick. Is it possible your phone is not sleeping?
hello everyone. heres another one of those crazy things i do here. this time i built on damage so i could use dconfig again. I had the idea to put this together when i saw koni's transparent mod,then the aosp zip and burst's theme. This is mish mash of all of that work+ some of what i do. since its built on damage and the biggest add on to theme was burst's theme. But while i was ripping them apart i realized that the aosp theme was basically using the same framework as burst with a few tweaks. Then got it to boot. I did have some serious issues with the kbs and the notifier but i learned what i was doing and fixed it then decided to post...Didnt take as long to finish this(about a day), because i didnt do ALL the themeing. I just found it and mixed it all together with some of my own tweaks added in both visually and performance wise.
HERES WHY YOU SHOULD FLASH:
1 CUSTOM BOOT
1 CUSTOM HTC KB (THEMED GREEN)
1 LATIN_IME MT KB FROM DROID_X
1 HTC_IME MOD
4 INTERACTIVE LWP FROM...(sorry i forget what device)
1 INVISABLE taskbar by KONIKUB
1 THEMED HTC clock widget(by me)
1 THEMED rosie(by me)
INCLUDED APPS
adw. its my fave and most stable imo
andro for file browsing and app backup
dconfig for tweaking(thank treve)
updater for new roms and themes ota
sys tray (to monitor ram)
battery widget (to monitor battery%)
titanium backup
left the sprint apps for once....
sorry all, i forgot to toss the nextel tikl in(ill toss up an update.zip with it)
i didnt throw in all the extra crap this time so this rom is a normal size(170mb)
screens
NOTE: THIS THREAD IS FOR IMPROVEMENT AND FEEDBACK ON THIS ROM TO HELP MAKE IT BETTER. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO POST MAKE SURE YOU FLASH IT FIRST. THIS IS AN ATTEMPT BY ME TO KEEP THE THREAD ON TOPIC AND USEFUL TO THOSE THAT CHOOSE TO USE THIS MOD. IF YOU DIDNT FLASH IT WHAT KIND OF HELP COULD YOU POSSIBLY OFFER IN THE WAY OF IMPROVEMENT?

hey awesome rom. I was wondering if you could put all the wallpapers you use in a .zip file? That would be awesome for us to download. THanks for the hard work!
Does the 3VO appear over the phone like in the screenshots? If it doesn't, I'm all over this.

That's unfortunate. I love the look of the ROM otherwise.
Sorry to be the debbie downer but I think it looks garbage. :/ A bunch of poorly done photoshop filters slapped into a single rom. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.
i must say this looks better than the previous RED theme.
so do I flash this by itself? or do I flash it over DamageControl's ROM??
Damn..this is nice and fast. The customizations is great. Nice job!
Do you know where I can get the HTC News Widget? I don't see it in here.
Thanks
i flashed this and the screen does not look like those pictures on post one. the taskbar is white with white fonts so the time is invisible.

if anything you should be downloading the rom and then ripping it apart and learning how to do what i do. Then MAYBE ill have a little respect for your opinion and what you have to say about me or my work.I am not a dev nor to i claim to be.it is your choice to choose this rom. so what was your reason?
your right; those 1000+photos did take me some time to filter EACH INDIVIDUAL FILE,then integrate the two themes and add konis transparent taskbar(took me a bit) then make it all boot. ive not had bootloop with neither of my mods so far on evo.had it all the time on cdma hero
thank you for your opinion and keeping on topic.but did you flash the rom? as the op states; its a prerequisite to posting in this thread. If not please follow the rules or dont post. Thanks

I hope not cus thats version 1 or 2 and i didnt ul either of those betas. ill double check the link and upload my personal that i just flashed 8hrs ago. So far it performs well w/o configuring dconfig. im on 70% battery after heavy use.not sure if thats good or bad. Its acceptable to me, but not remarkable like damager.FYI
Had a lot of problems, lots pf FCs and random system restarts.....
i havent had any fc's yet. please list your procedure so i can see what the problem is. i test everything extensively before i put it up for others. that would be very bad if i put up roms before i got them working then told pps i support them...
By any chance have you had luck with flash in the browsers? I'm currently using your finisher rom but would love to switch to this one, however if the flash issues still stand I'll try a different one for the mean time. Looks great BTW.

wasnt sure if i was just crazy, but i posted this in my finisher thread as a bug i found 3days after running it. When i went use a site that needed full flash(shockwave) adobe test said my sware was 10.blablabla and that it installed correctly. well i used my site and tried to use a java music player and when it goes to play, browser dissappears (no fc just gone) It worked fine before, but i thought maybe i was mistaken. no one responded so i figured it was just a problem for me. I NEVER edited anything with the wlan-ko, the browser or anything internet releated, so i cant narrow down the problem. Also, this is a damage based so not sure whats going on with this issue. if i find anything ill definately pm you. if you hear anything ill ask you do the same. thanks.

I cant see the "mod" title under your user name, so im pretty sure im completely safe in completely ignoring any outlandish,whiny requests you may have. Did the site just become facist overnite and maybe i missed something?Obivously my threads are riddled with the fonts you speak of so why bother to read them or post off topic comments that do not follow the ops in them? also, i do not encourage YOU or anyone else to keep their opinions to themselves. i welcome adversity. i can tell however, that you do not, since something simple as font/color which is our tool to use freely is able to prejudice you toward me or what i do here. it lets me see immediately how closed minded you are, and obviously would not like my work(it goes w/o saying that what i do is not for the normal crowd_more well received by the out of the box style of thinkers), so its no surprise that you would come to another haters defense.no loss to me boss.keep up the good fight, keep discouraging developers on the largest android dev site......glad im not a dev or i might be a bit offended by your words...if you want to whine more just pm me. this is a thread for rom related issues and developement as stated in the op in LARGE COLORED FONT, not the why i dont agree with the ops decision of fonts/sizes thread....WHY not go post in a thread where you LIKE the work? just another one of those crazy thoughts i have, just like those CRAYYYYYYZY FONTS.......Why hate on me? does it pay THAT well?
SOMETHING tells me that you dont get invited to a whole lot of parties.....ID be mad too.(is this color a little better for you?)
Guys,
I cleaned up the thread. Please stay on topic. Thank you.
I don't want to come out as needy and disrespectful. This is just a request.
Can anyone creat a custome ROM that is as close to stock as possible?
With a few exceptions. Of course remove all the bloat ware, creat a new status bar by removing the t-mobile logo that waists space and the previously used apps (we all know how to hold the home button), and lastly make a numeric battery. Try not to use the circle batterys but stay as close to the original as possible.
Ooh as well fix sence 3.0 and have lockscreen icons.
Also I do use the caller I'd feature T-Mobile provides I don't want $4 down the drain so.please keep that function.
Sent from my mt4gs
patience, young jedi... I'm sure someone will come out with something soon. I'd like exactly what you're asking for, too!
if I ever get some free time (not likely in the next 2 weeks) I will start cooking up some roms for us. I'm in the middle of a big transition right now and just haven't had time to sit down and start tearing roms apart. -____-
op: have you checked out the UOT kitchen? you can accomplish most of the status bar and battery tweaks you want through it.
the bloatware I would just uninstall with TiBu or any other program capable of uninstalling system apps.
the sense 3.0 lockscreen... not too sure. I've always been an aosp guy so I haven't spent much time modding sense.
Im in the same boat as queen I have something in the works also soone as I finish this rom for my epic !
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using XDA Premium App
No rush guys this phone isn't going anywhere. I would love to learn how to cook. I need to get over the big learning curve. The only reasone I ask is because there are specific files I don't know if are usefull or not. Like for example the new caller id feature I don't know witch files are associated with it. I do freeze as much as I can in tibp but I feel like its still slowing the phone down or taking up space. I've been a windows user a long long time and feel like when you uninstall something it's not the same as having a clean install. I can't get over that mindset. BTW thanks for the quick responce.

Those two changes require a framework hack, which requires another hack in services to disable signature verification. I've always wanted to remove those damn "Recent Apps" from the status bar, but only recently learned how to disable signature verification for when the framework is modified.
We have some amazing devs I'm sure sence 3.0 framework will be easly modified. Although I'm sure you can change the status bar without framwork mods like they did on the MyTouch 4g. Unless I'm wrong. Also thanks for revolution.

Until ROMs start coming out, use titanium backup to uninstall any of the bloatware you don't want. I uninstalled just about every app on my phone, and installed better versions of the ones I wanted, and in one case I uninstalled a stock app, then downloaded the same app from the market.
After getting rid of all the bloatware I noticed drastic battery life improvement, so I started looking at other things that were always running in the background, two of them were the preinstalled note pad app and Google Maps. I would stop them, and they would be back running in a matter of moments. I uninstalled both of them, downloaded Google Maps and ColorNote. For some reason, Maps is never running in the background any more. Not sure why that worked, but it did.
Well as I said in the post before I'm using the freeze function for now so I don't ruin anything. It goes into why I don't like doing that.

Means you have to copy SystemUI.apk to your computer, decompile it, re-write part of the code, re-compile it back into an .apk, then install it on the phone.
One of those "easier said then done" things, but not terribly difficult if you read through the thread and take the time to install the tools you need to your computer.
I'm intrigued by this, but there are other things on my list for this phone before I get around to something like this.
Is it just me or is the mt4gs forum dead? I know its the summer and all but wow. Not an attemp at anything. I'm not talking about custome roms. I'm talking about everything.

Yeah it's awful. I'm at work all day refreshing for new content, and I'm left disappointed about 90% of the time. I need something to flash!!!
I've actually just decided to try recruiting devs from the Sensation forum. Given the similarity between the devices, I'm hoping that it wouldn't be too difficult for someone out there to help us out...

I wasn't expecting much dev support here in the beginning. I think ports will start showing up slowly but don't expect it to be anything like the Sensation subforum.
it's a shame because this is a killer device that can run anything thrown at it. with some patience and luck we'll get some devs who are interested in creating things for the slide... maybe from the G2 section once more people start changing over.
at least there's really nothing function-wise on the stock rom that makes it unusable for me. once the bloat is gone and ADW ex (or whatever home replacement you like) is loaded, it's pretty much all I need.. some aosp love would sure be nice though for me.
Yea, but it's a new device...and an expensive one so a lot of people don't have one yet.
For early adopters it's hard sometimes, my approach has just been to try to document everything as thoroughly as possible so that when devs do come, they have less work to do.
Of course, the best way to get something done is to do it yourself - i'd like to make my own ROM for this device, but i'm a long way from that. It'll happen, but i'm pretty positive that by the time I get it all figured out Cyanogenmod will have been ported to this device.
Still won't stop me from doing it though, i'm too curious.
Meantime, posting up everything we can learn about the phone will help in getting a custom ROM when a dev willing to do so comes through here.
I was wondering the same thing. I'm coming from the HD2 and the Galaxy St Vibrant so anyone who knows those phones understands.... I was thinking this forum would be a little more lively.
I've gone from refreshing a lot to refreshing once a day.

Yeah. Totaly. Look at the phones I've owned in the signature. I remember going back to the razer the forums were packed with hex mods and java games. Maybe not this specific one. Still this is the biggest mt4gs forum.
Someone above noted that the phone is new and expensive. That is definitely a factor. Also, from what I saw, T-Mobile didn't really market this phone heavily before it came out. Right at the launch I saw a good amount of ads but not long before. Like the SGS2 has gotten real advertising saturation. This phone is a real contender but because it doesn't have a huge screen it received, and continues to receive, less attention.
Things will pick up but at this point I have prepared myself for a wait. Devs will eventually get the word on how good it is and then things will pick up but it will take some time. For me, the hardware we have is worth the wait.
I did have a thought. Find out if there are devs working on this phone. If not, we could look at collectively getting a phone to a dev that could get it moving.

really no replies yet? c-mon people help me out. i have been looking around and found a new rom that looks amazing. i am not a total noob at this stuff i know what i am doing. the new rom that i am looking at is called sensation rom and it looks amazing kudos to the guy that designed it. if you are running it please feel free to fill me in about it too. i am looking to flash a new rom soon and want to know what is the best that i can get for my infuse. here is the link for the sensation rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1325177

you can wait longer than an hour lol
to get an idea of how the roms are different, you can watch some videos on youtube.
miui is a big change from most roms, it's probably best to just flash and see if you like it. it's not like flashing is permanent

the sense Rom is good, i will leave it at that.
i dont like to hype Roms, cuz they are different for everyone....you may not like the features on one while someone else absolutly loves them. Miui is the MOST customizable rom that is out there. Cm7 is a great Rom as well. i can find good things to say about most roms i have tried on the infuse. and i have Tried them ALL...lol
i say flash away, if your not a Noob - i know your not scared of a brick right.
take the time and see if you like it, if not Flash another and another and for ****s and giggles flash another.
trial and error is the only way to really see if a rom works for you.
It's al about personal opinion man, in my opinion, you should backup your current rom and then flash miui and give it a try. the worst that can happen is that you won't like it and all you have to do is restore from your backup.
Its just two ROMs..!! And you are on Infused. Try out MIUI for a couple days and keep what you liked more.

I've just flashed to MIUI. This is purely my opinion alone.
- It's has a very clean interface with no "crapware" at all. I've to install everything from scratch. That's a plus point anyway.
- And there's multitude of customization that can be done. From themes, to settings, etc.
- But the thing that I don't really like is all my installed app sitting pretty on the home screen.
- I do notice that it's faster than the original infuse interface. Faster browsing too.
- I think it has problems handling more than 4 gmail accounts and Google voice seem to be working erratically.
Apart from that, everything works fine and I'm still figuring it out further.
Think of MIUI as a REALLY REALLY GOOD knock off of iOS.
its CM7 with a skin. lol. basically.

youtube would be a great idea if i werent at work where it is blocked. haha. but thanks for all your help everybody. i may flash MIUI just to try it out. thanks!
Personal preference tbh.
so just to cover my ass a little, if i make a backup of my current rom using rom manager and i dont like MIUI i can always restore from the backup that i made? and when i do decide to get MIUI what and where should i get it from?
MIUI is in the developers section of the infuse forums. It is usually on the first page due to so many people posting on it, it isn't hard to find.
well i did it. i flashed to MIUI and i am going to see if i like it. so far i am not happy. i had my phone to backup all my contacts to google and it didnt and i even moved them to my sim card. so i lost all my contacts. but all in all its going to take some getting used to. will either upload pics at some point or maybe make a video to help people like me who are a lil iffy on rom flashing.
thanks guys for all your help!
I've been running MIUI for 3 weeks now and I LOVE it.....sleek, customizable, fast, faster browsing than stock....but I would recommend trying both to find the one that works for you

MI~INFUSED~UI
All I know is I LOVE Infused GB rom
I tried Serendipity, and HATED it. Flashed Infused back immediately. The swype is outdated, and the look and feel is god-awful. Plus, I refuse to keep a ROM on my phone called "Serendipity" terrible...just awful.
Never tried MiUI
just get Infused. GTG is the man.
Im late on this topic. Just flash both and see which you enjoy more.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997R using xda premium
so i have a problem with MIUI. when i set tones as my ringtone, notification, and sms tone none of them work and it is the same sound for them all. i am using zedge for my ringtones and i noticed that you could use your music on your phone as a ringtone. please help. is there a fix or something that i am missing. i am going through settings to do this. any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have an old shift...and my son loves to play games and music on it, like me he loves tech. stuff....My question....is there anyway someone could construct something with all the phone,contacts, etc. out of it?...and just have access to music and google play for gaming....I tried, but got foreclosures everywhere. ..Thanx, if someone may find time as im sure others would be interested in this as well....
I can give it a shot. What ROM are you interested in moding?
Man...just something simple possibly a aosp type rom so the sense stuff doesnt give you a headache....whatever is the easiest...lol

Well I spent a lot of time trying to put something together yesterday using Provision and so far I haven't been able to put anything together I like. As a short cut you can get Titanium Backup Pro and freeze the contacts and messaging apps. (Only those two!) That'll hide the dialer, messaging and contacts apps. There is a ROM like what we are talking about here for the EVO 4g. I'll read through what the dev of that ROM did to make it work. Maybe it can be ported.

Yeah I seen that also through alot of searching, but that is beyond my knowledge as far as porting...Man provision would look awesome though....Thanks for trying though...Love you work by the way....
I threw together a quick port of the EVO ROM I mentioned earlier this morning before work & it booted! Its a bit buggy but it looks promising. Ive asked for permissions & hopefully can get something available soon.

You are a beast...and im sure people will find this to be a nice option for the shift...
Hey guys. Would anyone be willing to look through an updater script problem for me. I ran my new ROM through dsixda's kitchen and now I'm getting status 6 error. I'm sure its something small but I'm to tired to do any more tonight. If not its ok. I'll just look more closely later.
Edit: Here's a link http://d-h.st/Bwf
Here is a test version on what I have so far. I would have an official release today but I stayed up too late last night and now I'm going to be late for work. http://d-h.st/omo Its still a bit buggy....
