[Q] Theme Question/Request - Verizon Droid Charge

Hi there, I'm VERY new. I just got a Samsung Droid, first droid phone ever. I've rooted my phone by flashing the Altered Beast ROM onto it.
I came across the AndroidCutee theme HERE and want to know if its compatible with my phone. If not how do I make it compatible or can someone make one like it for the Charge or another similary Girly theme?
Many Thanks!

We only have one themer, and 2or3 rom developers right now. Im thinking the dev support will be slow and lacking with the charge. Samsung screwed too many people with a lack of updates. Dont use that theme...you will ruin your phone.

i sent him a request to see if i can port it.

Hays really? Did he give a particular reason?
I find it annoying when people say no to ports without a particularly valid reason...like they are getting the phone themselves

says he wants it for bamf only. he just released it or something.

I guess that is fair enough, but BAMF is only for the ThunderBolt, too bad since they have a great ROM on the TB, wish they work on the Charge as well.

DarchLegend would be more like it. Darchdroid is from AOSP, not really ported from a particular phone.

This fits in here just fine. We have roms cooked from several different phones here. There are certainly some nice things to be found in this rom that can (possibly) contribute to the Hero.

Thank you. Knew it would come in handy.
Anybody have any clue what kind of special stuff is in there? Maybe the EVO Sense already works with JIT Roms????
I for one would love to see the new lockscreen ported to our 2.1 roms. That would be sick
I would love to have a lockscreen that isn't our stock Hero one. It's terrible. And I can't seem to get the Vanilla one working or any other one except the straight up clear one working on Fresh 2.1.
And the Hotspot app. I'd love Infrastructure wifi instead of Ad-Hoc
So other than a few different apps whats so different about the EVO rom? Been alot of talk that they may not even be able to root that baby, id feel bad for them.

The fact that Sprint is requiring (seems to be confirmed now too) that you have the Wifi hot spot add-on in order to activate the wifi on the phone leads me to believe that once people have this phone in hand they will find that it's not rootable.
I am not real savvy on rooting android phones, but it seems to me that this might be the direction that providers are going in with these phones in order to maintain add-on sales for the devices.

LOL, there are now 5000 of these things in the hands of devs. My money says it will be rooted before 6/4/10.

[ROM] Sprint HTC Evo Shift v1.17.651.1 - STOCK, ROOTED

Here is a 100% stock rooted ROM v1.17.651.1
The ONLY change made was to root it.
No guarantees made or implied, use at your own risk.
Developers, themers, and anyone else feel free to do what you want with this!
There is no support here, so don't ask.
OP says it all. If you have a question, read the OP again.

Not sure I'm going to keep it. I'm still partial to my EVO, this slide out keyboard wiggles too much and the screen is smaller. My hands are big so the original EVO was better.
Get the blue/black HTC case and your keyboard won't wiggle anymore. Really stiffens it up right well.
No suggestions for the smaller screen, but you do get used to it.
Keep your evo, give the shift to your wife! Then you can develop roms for both phones.
I see you closed your EVO rom thread. Does that mean you will be developing for the shift exclusively now? I can understand not wanting to stretch yourself too thin. FWIW, I have really enjoyed your rom and appreciate all of the hard work you put into it keeping it up to date.
My keyboard doesn't wiggle at all with no case. I don't know why it seems everyone else's is

Just a question, so this is 100% stock, so it has all the sprint apps loaded on the phone by default, but being rooted, you would be able to uninstall them? So you would end up with a completely stock phone, with apps you want uninstalled off the phone?

Odds of Cyangen Rom?

Guys what are the odds of stock android rom hacked on to the Sammy Charge???
Wondering what others are thinking?
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
The odds are better than the odds that you took time to read the Development board where there are 2 ROMs available
and most likely a 3rd one soon by the dev that did the Liberty ROM the Tesla ROM.....
But if all you care about is this CM ROM; go get something else.
I'm sure there will be one eventually, but if you want it within the next month, I'd look elsewhere, as there are no guarantees as to when it will come or how functional it will be.
Lol @ Shotgunsams great response.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA Premium App
@shotgunsam...... Ummmm roms available. There all spruced up TouchWiz tweaks.
I am meaning a true Rom not built ontop of touchwiz.
Either i was looking for hope of one. Since the fascinate never got one.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
Uh, did you read the descriptions of the ROMs? DroidXCon gives you LauncherPro, other launchers soon to come, and imnuts has a streamlined ROM with the default AOSP launcher. Both completely remove TW launcher, according to the descriptions.
I too would love to see CM7 for this device. But the fact is, there are a few great ROM's available already, which is incredible considering the phone has only been out for two weeks! I really appreciate the hard work of the devs, and can't wait to see what's available in the coming weeks.
I got the DI when it first came out. First it was when will it get root. Root was a ***** becasue it was so random it worked with some sd cards and some it did not. There were methods of clicking your sd card in and out which actually worked for me. Not a day latter everyone was *****ing about roms. When will we get this or that rom. Look at almost 1 year later and there are crazy amount of roms. It takes time be patient and look forward to what is coming. Crap I am typing this and I don't even get my charge till tuesday. I hate touchwiz I will root,rom,replace launcher with one of my choosing. If I hate something will just get another phone 6 8 months down the road but really not concerned about it at this point. I think in time it will be like every other phone tons of awesome roms from great developers. Liberty was one of if not the best roms for the droidx which I own. Just knowing they same people that worked on that rom is doing stuff for charge has me stoked.
Guys im not knockin the devs. But everything is built off TOUCHWIZ just cause you get rid of the launcher its still touchwiz under the hood.
The fascinate never had a locked bootloader either and noone ever got a stock android rom working. So i was just asking if it would be possible here. Anyways no biggie....

No way of saying will it get cwm7 or not. I will say the Droid x has a locked boot loader but Liberty rom was amazing. They put a ton of details and tweeks so that you could change things they way you want. As much as you could anyways with a locked boot loader. The developers of that rom did a great job with what they had to work with. Now if they are dev for this phone and it is fully unlocked. Wow no dobut will they put out a awesome rom for it. Now I have every intention to installing the best roms out for this phone when I get it tuesday. Developers deserve not only our thanks but donations as well. Thank you guys that put in all the hard work making our phones run crazy cool.
Unlike other skins tw is small and really is easy to remove. I've deleted alot and it still is functioning. Sense roms=200MB touchwiz=100MB and idk about blur

Do you know why the fascinate still doesn't have a fully functional cm7? Samsung code. And lack of true full source... This too is a samsung device...

Well Samsung released the kernel source pretty much immediately didn't they? Also didn't Samsung say they were going to be better about releasing that kind of stuff, and also keeping bootloaders more open? So this could be a real possibility. Although if you know what your removing, I would assume like HTC Sense, you can pretty much take a TW based rom and completely remove TW and have it work fine.

You do know that the Fascinate is knocking on the door to get full CM7 support don't you? Honestly, if you didn't like the Fascinate, you won't like the Charge, and based on your posts here, I don't think you ever like any android phone as they all seem to have one problem or another.

The reason the download is so big is that Samsung didn't clean out the kernel source tree after building, and tar'd up the source files as well as the built binaries (and all the other generated files). After you download, do "make distclean" and you'll save yourself some space and get rid of the useless files.

Apparently a lot of people are having trouble understanding the question. lol
I been wondering the same thing though. I have a good feeling about CM getting on bored eventually, it's what I'm looking foreward to the most with this phone. I miss having my notification bar on the bottom of my phone like I did with my D'Inc... lol
The only reason I say I "think" that it has a good chance getting CM support is because it seems, besides the Fascinate, they have been doing a great job cracking down on Samsung phones lately in the past few months. Besides the more phone supported by them, the better and the more recongnition they get. Until then ADW Ex is working fine for me.
Shout out to CM for all the awesome hard work.

Coming from the original Incredible (CDMA) Rooting and ROMing was a breeze and also received CM support pretty quickly. If anything, I would think that the 4G radio would be the hardest work around. You never know though.

If you wanted AOSP so badly, you should have waited for it to be available on an LTE phone before you bought one. Buyers remorse is no reason to come onto the forums and ***** about not getting something that's unsupported and done in the developer's free time.
I needed a phone and its usually tmobile that gets the true android experience phones. Verizon always has bloatware. I didn't know the 3rd nexus was coming to verizon when I got my phone

I have used CM7 before, and I love it. I look forward to it coming just as much as a lot of people. But I'm not going to get pissed about it because development is going slower than I would like in the perfect world that exists in my brain. I don't get pissed because I know I'm unable to contribute to the process, so I have to just sit and wait patiently.
If you were contributing code daily and fixing issues, and the rest of the people working on the project weren't doing as much as you or stalling on the project, then maybe you'd have an angle for getting upset. But as it stands, you just need to STFU and wait for JT to make a breakthrough like the rest of us.

Also, since you posted this, moderators, members, presidents, ceo's, governors, senators and Samsung devs alike have all taken great interest in getting YOU CM7 and making sure YOUR android experience is the best it can possibly be. Rest assured there is a team working hard in your (timgt) favor. Can I powder your bottom? Do you need a hot towel? Just let us know, and I'm sure there will be a team of experts on it likity split.

Inexperience has absolutely nothing to do with the responses that have been posted here. It is rude and in all honesty a sign of your inexperience for you to complain about the speed of development. You are neither contributing nor populating the forums with decent honest questions or any positive material!
This is the exact reason that most devs have left xda alltogether. So take your whiney ass somewhere else or better yet sell your charge and use the money to get an iphone...

I used CM7, OMFGB, and jt1134's Vanilla GB on the fascinate, but I have nothing to contribute in the way of development of a ROM except for thorough testing. So I calmly wait and accept the fact I am on the dev's timetable. I suggest you do the same. Couple of things for you to consider:
1) Read the stories about CM7 on the Bionic. Everything I read said it booted on the phone, but is nowhere near functional enough for release. From what I have read of jt's progress on CM7 for the Charge, he is ahead of the Bionic progress.
2) Have you noticed some of the most respected devs, Nitsuj17 and Adrynalyne, have started chiming in here and are telling you to stfu? Especialy Nitsuj17, he is one of the nicest guys I have seen across many forums. It's a truly rare occasion when he responds to someone the way he did here, so good job. That to me is a big clue you are talking out of your ass and are the real clueless one.
Next time you open your mouth it would be a good idea to first remove you head from your ass. It prevents you from spouting nothing but a bunch of ****.
In the immortal words of chopperthedog............good day.

I think it will be considering the great progress some of these guys are making. Besides we will have(most likely) multiple Roms, before LG even thinks about the OTA.

The Nexus One was destined for high end development anyways...But even the freaking HD2 now has ICS. Now thats ridiculous
But yah, ICS really has nothing to be depressed over. Except for the hardware acceleration capability...now CM9 is a whole other thing. But i'm sure CM9 will be available way before LG drops the major update.
I spent a few hours installing ICS on my daughter's Samsung Vibrant. It was nice to play with but not totally earth shattering. Some UI changes (improvements?), some different features. I was very excited about ICS now after spending some time with it, I can be patient and for the developers to work it out.

+1. I tried selling my g2x on CL and everyone's first question is " is it getting ics?".

I think it will be considering the great progress some of these guys are making. Besides we will have(most likely) multiple Roms, before LG even thinks about the OTA.

I don't think there will be any official ICS from LG or Tmo considering the g2x is already discontinued.

Looks that way huh. Well it is LG we're talking about. I would rather a custom Rom anyway, but that's just me.

ICS sucks without CM. I ran ICS on my HD2 and switched back to CM7.2

must just be your HD2 because it runs well on my Vibrant.
Anyway, we will probably see ICS from LG at some point but that will be the last update this phone gets.

I can't lie so I tell them it should but there will definitely be a rom. I do direct them to the FAQ

I spent a few hours installing ICS on my daughter's Samsung Vibrant. It was nice to play with but not totally earth shattering. Some UI changes (improvements?), some different features. I was very excited about ICS now after spending some time with it, I can be patient and for the developers to work it out.

I have ICS Passion 10.6 on my vibrant and its flawless and super fast. Still hoping I dont throw my g2x against the wall before before it finally gets it.
Let not your heart be troubled.
Before you smash the G2x, flash Phoenixblood rom + Faux latest cm kernel and let us all know how you feel about your G2x then lol
I think just about all of us are anticipating cm9 but i believe i have found the best cm7 experience with 0 flaws imo with PhoenixBlood rom
To me is not really about ics, its about how they treat us (g2x users) if it wasn't for cm7/cerqueira this phone would be nothing, im glad i got a good one but many people got ****ty phones and the only reason they did gb was because of the lawsuit. They don't want to give us a fish (updates) and they sure as hell don't want to teach us how to fish (drivers).
I for sure dont want nothing to do with lg/nvidia, had a chance to get 2 cheap LG tvs for xmas, went with another more expensive brand!
NVIDIA NEVER AGAIN!

Well lets not be silly here. LG makes some bomb ass TV's and I wouldn't mind owning one at a good price. I just wouldn't buy another phone from them for obvious reasons, but that's completely different than TV's.

It ran fine without any bug and everything working. It sucks because there is no CM Settings menu.....thats where most of the feature that I use daily are located. losing all those features to gain better new looks is pointless.
I like this phone but, because of the lack of support for it, not LG, NVIDIA and Google. Although it's blasphemy stating this on an Android focused website forum, because of the total messup with this phone, except for the devotion of independent developers and others who support/supported this phone, I will not be buying anything with NVIDIA in it, made by LG, and probably not Android. I am going to seriously consider phones which run the new Windows OS and the iPhone 5 when it comes out.
