*All of my modifications can also be found on brieflygeek*
I have been doing a bunch of evo modding on my free time, and have created a few things so far. I wanted to make a spot on these forums to keep all my stuff and make it available to you all. I will update this as I go.
*Please nandroid before performing any of these modifications, for I am not responsible for anything that might result. That said, I have tested every mod I release for myself and assured they work.*
-POST 3 WILL CONTAIN WIP, POST 2 WILL CONTAIN FULL THEMES-
FROYO | 2.2 MODS
________________________________________
Smooth sense battery mod *UPDATED 8.20.2010*
This mod WILL replace your framework-res, meaning any mods you have flashed will reset to stock.
This is a battery mod which adds many more battery images to your framework. With this, every percentage change is shown with a change in battery. I got this from an incredible port, which you may have seen, but removed actual percent as I am not a huge fan. This also includes the GPS and SYNC animated icons.
Installation
To install, just flash as you would a rom from recovery. This is tested and confirmed working on the newest fresh, but *should* work on any rom based off the new official 2.2. As of right now, this package is NOT signed, meaning clockwork will be required to flash.

Splash Screens *UPDATED 8.30.2010*
These are my current splash screens. I will update as I make more.
Installation
The files attached can be flashed through bootloader.
Boot your phone into fastboot (hold vol up key while powering phone on, select fastboot)
Now open command. To verify your computer is recognizing your phone, type
Code:
fastboot devices
This should list your device. After that, you want to unzip the file you downloaded and place it in your android sdk tools folder.
Now, back in command, change to your tools directory and enter
Code:
fastboot flash splash1 splash.raw565
*NOTE* you need to pay attention to the file name. I name these files as I can't have all my splash screens being named splash. You either must change the filename to splash.raw565 if it isn't already, or replace the correct file name in the command.

CM6 ANDROID THEME 9/29/10
here are some screens. Toasts, selections and pop ups have all been kept stock aosp. Credit goes to myn for the battery its using *right now*and the wallpaper and manup for the icons. Let me know what you guys think.
Now, I have slowly been adding more droid icons for ones that manup didn't include in his pack. If you notice in the screenshots, we now have torch, superuser, and carhome. I will have to release these apks on the side because obviously not everyone will have all the apps. So I will be making icons for common downloaded apps or things you guys suggest over time.

Sweet. Going to try it out.
Quick thought... do you think after flashing your framework, using metamorph to replace other bettery icons, such as mine, would be able to use all animations now? Or is there something specific you changed within the icon files?

If your metamorphs essentially replace the same framework files as mine, with the same names, then it will work. Open up the framework in that zip and all the modified battery icons will be in res/drawable-hdpi-v4.

Nice. It works now. Weird thing is the charging animations are a little weird. They were switching back between "charging" states and "Full" states. Kinda hard to explain. I'm gona tweak around a little bit to see what I can come up with.
If you don't mind, could I tweak with your framework? I don't want to take credit for ur awesome work. ^_^ I'll give u credit for the framework in any post I do with it. Again, if u dont mind.

do it! Thats why I posted it mang. enjoy
as for you charging icons, could be that you're not using as many as this mod. there are 32 icons in this framework for charging, and if I counted correctly the ones you posted contain 24? If those are the ones you're using of course.. this would explain why its possibly not finding the icons and defaulting.

no, that's out of the stat_sys_battery.xml

Wow, what a coincidence. Persibro did this as well. I am also making a manup theme version, only mine uses the manup icons.
Great minds think alike I suppose.
EDIT: Nvm, I just realized you saw my first version of the port in another thread and that yours doesn't have the %. I think this version would be good to port to Cyanogen.
any chance these mods will play nicely with the cm6 nightly builds? i know the framework is a bit different than the 2.2 sense roms, so i'm kind of hesitant in trying this out.

Yeah I'm not a huge fan of the percentage display so I took it out. Im also working on cleaning the icons up a bit, because although you can't see them on the actual screen, there are some border issues. Not sure if this was the original intention, but I'm changing it
If anyone is interestd in any particular colors let me know and I can work on them.

Synergy ROM is a brand new ROM that I cooked up utilizing a combination of all the hard work done across the XDA community. I baked this based on my personal preferences and a general consistency across a lot of EVO users. I wanted it to be fast, stable and usable. I think that I have a good start. I would love to hear your feedback.
So What’s Included?
The Base
Built using 3.70.651.1 base
Made with the latest dsixda ROM Kitchen v1.10
Using Go Launcher as the default
Using HTC Kernel #15
Removed mostly all of Sense with the exception of the lockscreen and music player since I find the controls on the lockscreen very useful
The Guts:
Everything working (4G, HDMI, 3G, Wifi etc…)
403+ MB memory available after a clean installation.
Deodexed for theming if desired
All apps moved to data folder (allows for updating via market and capability to uninstall)
All apps automatically zipaligned after each boot to help them load up faster
Cleaned up system files and applications for more speed and less memory usage
Dalvik to cache instead of eating up main memory
SNQ reboot menu updated to latest 4-in-1 with hot reboot option
Calkulin's MMS Compression and 5MB size limit mods
Visual Appearance:
JsChiSurf's ported Notification Menu Power Control
Default wallpaper changed from standard Sense
Added a few notifications/ringtones
Removed the GPS reticle when GPS is off
Additional Apps Added:
Fixed HTC Browser (No more random FC)
Myn’s hacked Sprint Hotspot
Astro File Manager
Cache Cleaner
Titanium Backup
Spare Parts
XDA App
4G Toggle Widget
ROM Manager
Typo Clock Widget
Apps Added to SD Just in Case (Located under Extra Apps folder):
Miui Browser (This is an awesome, fast alternative to stock)
Google Voice
DSP Manager (EQ for speaker, headphone, and Bluetooth)
Fancy widgets clock (HTC style) for those who like it!!
Wireless Tether 2.05 pre 10 (In case you prefer over Sprint’s Hotspot)
Download ROM here: SynergyROM
To install:
1. Copy SynergyROMv3.5.zip to the root of your SD card.
2. Shut off your phone and boot into recovery.
3. Do a full wipe (Data, cache, Dalvik, SD Ext.) Do it twice to be sure if you want to!
4. Install SynergyROMv3.5.zip. It should take a few minutes to install.
5. Reboot the phone. It should take a long time to start up the first time. Be patient.
6. If all goes well, enjoy your new ROM!
A Special thanks to:
Aamikam for letting me use his base
Myn for his awesome ROM skills and all his help!!!
JsiChisurf for his countless hours on the notification port!!
DSIXDA for the excellent ROM kitchen v1.10
Calkulin (for all of his contributions)

I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device. You are flashing at YOUR OWN RISK
Flashing it. Good Luck.
Been using this for a couple hours now. Very smooth and quick. Love the transitions. Keep up the good work.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
looks clean. DL and flashing in a bit. Then will post some battery screenshots tomorrow after overnight sit... Keep in mind I will be running with a 2200mah ext battery. NOT the standard or Seido 3500. later
Thanks to those of you who have tried my ROM, I greatly appreciate the feedback and ways to improve.
The link does not work for me, can I get a mirror
Here is a few mirrors:
http://www.zshare.net/download/82342441250ff909/
http://www.multiupload.com/MU_2LZ5YFL5HI
I tried the both of them, Zshare says it will begin shortly, (this is after waiting the initial wait time) but never starts. Mega upload says the file is not available at this time. I would really like to try this ROM out.
finally got it to work!

May I make a suggestion?
Use Multiupload like I do. It uploads to all download sites so you have multiple mirrors setup with one download.
I had download issues with my ROM, since then they are a thing of the past.
Edit: Nevermind looks like you did already. Carry on
What happened to the stock keyboard? Can you please include the stock keyboard. HTC mod does not have arrows.
Thanks.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Thanks for the feedback so far, I will include the standard IME keyboard in the next release. I have some other ideas as well but I want to know what you would like to see. Thanks.
Synergy ROM and Tether
This ROM is smooth. Like the Launcher Pro integration. Was unable to import my File Organizer set up and having some troubles with restoring Tether. Prob user error on my part, but any of you have suggestions? I really like this ROM. I was a previous Fresh user and find this one superlative..
Thanks I am glad that you like the ROM. As for restoring I assume you are using titanium backup? If so make sure you click on the "Problems?" button on the main page as this will install the correct version of busybox. Give that a try and see how it works. As for the folder organizer, not quite sure why that wouldn't work, seems like it might be an application issue. Try uninstalling, clearing the cache (cache cleaner app) then reboot and start again.
Hope this helps out!!
Got the file organizer to work! Dum on my part. Still working on getting the Mobile Hotspot to work. It worked once but then disconnected and since then have not been able to reconnect. Thank you much for your guidance. This is a most streamlined ROM.
Sorry for my nuisance and inexperience. Got both the hotspot tether and the file organizer to work!! This ROM scored real high on the Quadrant:1333 after changing out the kernel for 11 EVO. If this ROM is just the Beta I am sticking around!! Keep working it up, I am going to keep this ROM a while!!
after testing this ROM for a little I am seeing that the battery power runs low quick, which seems to be an issue with alot of the ROMs out there.. work on that and this ROM will surely be extra awesome..
Based on Android 2.2 Froyo EC05 Official Release. CWM3 and EXT4 only.
See change log in second post.
Welcome
Simply AOSP was created originally as a personal project but extended to something I thought I'd share. I noticed there was a missing link in the Froyo Roms, and that was a 100% functional AOSP OR AOSP-CLONE type of ROM.
Think CM7 with Samsung's Sources.
Requirements
CWM3
EXT4
Wipe x3
Your data WILL be lost when you flash this. The scripts intentionally don't backup and restore Data. I have noticed Mixed results with this type of data retention, backup with Titanium Backup BEFORE you flash. You've been warned
EC05 Modem (Newer Gingerbread Modems such as EF02 have also been reported to work just fine! As always I only test against the latest stable release which is EC05)
DI18 or EB13 Modem will automatically be updated.
Common Sense
What is it?
The goal of this ROM is to provide the most AOSP experience possible.
With that said. I'm not going to cripple certain aspects of the phones functionality simply in the name of AOSP. Therefore the Samsung Calendar / Email / Camera and Camcorder apps remain.
The Touchwiz Launcher has been removed, the Touchwiz Framework is still present because the core depends on it and it could not be easily removed (it may be plain and simply not possible).
Who will like this?
People who enjoy AOSP and want something that feels like stock android.
Bugs? Future? If I like this will you update it in the future?
Bugs:
You will need to run "/system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha" to fix auto-rotate.. or it will be really slow.
Directions for this if you've never ran a script in *nix:
Open up ADB (adb shell)
From the shell prompt issue these commands..
1.) su
2.) /system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha
3.) Place the phone on a level surface... hit enter. Done!
Will it be updated in the future?
Yes. But like any other ROM's, keep the ETA talk to a minimum. Bugs will be dealt with immediately if possible, enhancement/feature updates are on no schedule.
If you like this great! Enjoy using it.. if you don't like it.. that's fine to.. Credits to all the great developers who have made this ROM possible!

Fixed a few icons that were left over in the original theme.
Added battery % mod.
Modified the signal strength meter to be slightly more accurate. Your signal MIGHT appear weaker due to the increased accuracy, but you didn't actually lose anything.
-Semi-Nerdy Explanation: Sprints signal strength is being calculated to represent 6 bars if you count zero. It was setup for real bars 4,5 and 6 were represented by "full strength 4 out of 4 bars". This produced signal bars that were almost always full, which isn't a bad thing but not as accurate as it could be. I changed it to
1 and 2 real bars of strength is represented by 1 out of 4 bars in the icon (1/6 and 2/6 are roughly 16% and 33% signal strength, represented by 25% on the icon.)
3 real bars (roughly half strength) are represented by 2 out of 4 bars. (Self explanatory 3/6 and 2/4 = 50%)
4 real bars are represented by 3 out of 4 bars. (4/6 is 66% and represented by 75%)
5 and 6 real bars are represented by 4 out of 4 bars. (5/6 is 83% and represented by 100%)
So the inaccuracies in the icon are +/- 9-17% versus +/- 14-34% when I started.
Version 1.2.2.7
CynagenMod 6 Music Player with Status Bar integration. - Thanks to Eliot Stocker for the Mod.
^Samsung Music Player Removed.
AOSP Calculator Application replaces the Samsung one despite there being no functional difference.
AOSP Settings Icons
More theme changes - Improved Status Bar Toggle Appearance - Matches Power Control App (Thanks to Master, Author of the Vibrant AOSP Clone, 4 of the 5 icons are his.)
Improved Notification Overlay from TwFramework21
AOSP 2.2 Keyboard replaces the Gingerbread one (This will be controversial but this is AOSP 2.2.. not 2.3)
Added Car Home (Music shortcut is currently broken, looking into fix)
Added News and Weather App and Widget
Version 1.3.2.7 - Not being released, merged with 2.0
Fixed Duplicate Ringtones / Notification Tones.
Full Battery Popup and Tone remove - Thanks to untermensch for the write up.
Volume Hack - Thanks to the ViperROM team! Works great!!
Version 2.0
Based on Bonsai 2.0.1. Incredible increase in performance, probably due to the EXT4 mods/improvements, YMMV.
Battery life improvements.
Name changed to Simply AOSP.
All 1.3.2.7 changes are included in this.
Added protips (Useless? Maybe. AOSP? Definitely.)
Version 2.1
Based on Official Froyo EB13
New boot screen - Credits to OptmsPrm21
New kernel. - Credits to Rodderick
Sport Mode Camera FC Resolved (Thanks to our awesome new kernel)
Video Camera Lag Fixed (Also thanks to our new kernel)
Version 2.2
Wireless Tether added by default.
Wired Tether also added.
LogsProvider.apk fixed to no longer log text messages in your call log. Thanks to Mammon88. (This will not delete already existing SMS entries in your log, instead it just prevents new ones)
Samsungs Built in Screen Capture Service has been removed. (I was getting random force close issues with the .apk in place, use DroCap instead if you need shots)
Genocide Kernel with Keyboard Patch and 100mhz fix. (Improved Battery Life and Keyboard Response).
Carrier IQ service removed - Thanks to the ACS team.
Removed Samsungs Clock utility. Added Desk Clock
Version 3.0.2
3.0.2 Patch - 1x Icon Enabled
3.0.2 Patch - Browser Fixed (CM6 Browser not yet tested so just the stock Samsung browser is included. It will checkerboard occasionally but at least it doesn't crash anymore )
3.0.2 Patch - Rebuilt system - Fixed EB13/EC05 mixup.
3.0.2 Patch - Wireless Tether Included by default again. Fixed and works out of the box properly.
3.0.2 Patch - Wired Tether still included but not functional. EC05 breaks this functionality. As soon as there is a work around I will quickly implement it.
3.0.2 Patch - 3D Gallery with Multi-touch and Pinch to Peek (Credits to b-reezy for porting this over)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.0.1 Patch - CM7 browser removed and replaced with the stock touchwiz browser for now until issues are ironed out.
3.0.1 Patch - LogsProvider.apk fixed to not include texts in your call log. (Thanks to k0nane!!!!!)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Greatly improved Browser from CM7. (Thanks to the ACS team!) No more checker boarding.
Removed Car Home for now.
100MHZ Step Disabled by default. A few times I had trouble waking the phone with the 100MHZ step enabled, however battery life could be improved with it enabled, you may play with it in Voltage Control. Be sure to click Apply for Now to put the setting into effect and Save as Boot Settings if you want to keep it for good.
Automatic Modem updating from DI18 or EB13 (Thanks to the Bonsai Team)
Wireless Tether Removed due to stability and functionality problems that I have been unable to resolve. Will look into adding it by default again in the future.
No longer a Froyo Clone, updated to a Gingerbread Clone
Froyo Theme Pack could easily be produced if there is a demand.
Keyboard Lag Fix + the addition of TheImpalers optimization.
Journaling now enabled by default to improve stability. Will create a likely unnoticed ~2% decrease in I/O performance
Gingerbread Desk Clock Application
Added Reboot to Power Options
Added Voltage Control for overclocking. (Stock is NOT overclocked, Overclock at your own risk!!)
Genocide Kernel

I made it very clear this is just my own set of customizations I made for my personal use.. I was tired of having to flash 4 zips to get back to my personal preferences. After making it I decided hey maybe others in the community would enjoy this.. so I called it a "Rom SORTA".. I don't want credit for anything.. I didn't do anything original.. just a combination of AOSP elements built on Quantum..that again started as something for just myself to reduce the amount of needed zips. I'm sure someone will enjoy it.. just not you.

First things first, this is a work-in-progress guys. I know there are multiple things that need to be modified, improved, added, or fixed, and I'm hard at work trying to get to all of them.
Buoyancy is based off the latest UCLA3 update, which seems to be performing faster than the previous firmware in terms of both data and regular speed.

How The Release System Will Work
As of right now I've decided to go with the 3 digit release system. This is how it will work. The first digit of the release, e.g. the 1 in buoyancy 1.0.0, represents the overall version of Buoyancy. Any changes made to this will be very major. The second digit represents the stable build number of that version. Any changes made to this will be made carefully, but will probably not be earth-shattering. Finally, the third digit is for builds that may be unstable but have new features I may add to the next stable release. I'll try to update the third digit every 3-4 days. The other digits will be updated when I feel the stability of the rom has increased.
Theming
Want to theme Buoyancy? Go here to edit the ROM options to your liking. Remember, if you create a super-awesome theme, be sure to send it my way so I can post it and take all the cred-- I mean let the community use it.
Porting
The following is my current progress on porting the Buoyancy to this Potato. I'm expecting great success; I'm fairly certain Potatoes float.
Code:
Variants: Mashed, Sweet, Russet, Mr. Potato Head.
Radio: If you stick some antennas into it that might work.
Power Source: Self-Sustainable
Storage: 2 bits: One peel, one inside.
Multitouch: Two fingers needed for proper peeling.
Drivers: As far as I know, potatoes make terrible drivers. Mostly due to the lack of current arm/hand/finger hierarchy support.
GPU: General Potato Unit. Capable of recreating images of Jesus on the skin.
Some Comments/Disclaimers/FAQ's/Important Things (Please Read)
Personal Thoughts: This is only my second rom I've published (the first on the cappy), but I must say that I'm pretty happy with the way it's turning out.
AT&T vs. Rogers: For 1.1.0+ I have decided to merge the two builds into one. If anyone on Roger's experiences problems with the new builds, please let me know.
Bravia Engine: While I did include the Bravia Engine port into this mod, it's difficult to test whether or not it is actually there besides just subjective screen observation. However, you need to trust me on this, it does help with video playback and picture quality.
Extended Power Menu: Added.
Swype: Woot, woot, working Swype!.
SOD: Not an issue! Plus, OC has returned!
Throttling: If you do end up getting throttled, I have confirmed that this method does in fact work with both versions of Buoyancy.
GPS Fix: I Would include the GPS fix, but it always seems to tell me I'm in Nevada. This would be okay if I was a resident of the Silver State, but unfortunately I'm not.
Kernels: As of right now I feel that Faux's kernel provides a good balance of speed and stability, and I'll probably be sticking to it for builds in the near future. However, if Da_g does in fact come out with an update to fix the SOD, then I'll return back to his, simply because it is wicked-fast.
OMG VIRUS WHEN DOWNLOAD HAXXXXXXX: Not to worry, I'm not actually trying to give you a trojan, I promise. The same notification people have been having when they attempt to download Buoyancy has happened to a lot of friends of mine when they try to download rooty things like SuperOneClick or a ROM. My best guess is that it has to do with Superuser privileges+an overactive anti-virus system. If you want to read more, go here
Yahoo Finance Force Closings: If you perform the "fix permissions" option in cwm this issue should resolve.
BLN For MMS: Alright, alright, I know that BLN is not currently working with the stock MMS.apk right now, but the problem is, the MMS.apk that BLN does work for FC's upon entering its settings. So please be patient while I try to work out one of these kinks.
Announcements (Also In Red Because It's Important)
Currently testing PDroid.
May try the new ICS Camera.apk that's been floating around recently.
Still working on that BLN Text Messaging
Current ICS Launcher is a Lil' Glitchy. You have been warned.
Yes, I'm sorry, 1.3.1 is a full-wipe version. But I have my reasons. For one, this is going to be the last build of Buoyancy for a little while since I'm going to try and focus my attention on ICS. The other is that I kept getting bootloops with a non-wipe version, which angered me into submission.
Updating to UCLA base in 1.4.0.

Buoyancy is based off Bonestocketeer, created by playin4sheezy. Major thanks to him and all his hard work. Note:This ROM will wipe your data automatically, so no need to do it through cwm. However, it won't hurt if you do. Future non-major releases of Buoyancy will be updates and not require a data wipe.

Some Comments/Disclaimers
Personal Thoughts: This is my second rom I've created (the first on the cappy), and I've only actually had the Skyrocket for about two weeks, but I must say that I'm pretty happy with the way this first build turned out.
AT&T vs. Rogers: The only real differences between the two builds is the kernel and the radio... I'm fairly sure the AT&T version can run on Roger's and vice versa.
CRT Animation: There is a CRT Animation Mod out there in the forums right now, but for some reason it does not play well with the BoneStock base. If anyone could isolate the files in the framework-res.apk that are modified so I wouldn't have to tear through every inch of it, I'd be much obliged.
Extended Power Menu: I thought about adding this, but I figured with the 14-toggle mod, it wasn't really needed. As a side-note, with the 14-toggle mod, if you hit reboot it will give you options to reboot into recovery and download as well.

Ah thank god, I've been tearing through the framework-res.apk for the past 2 hours or so trying to find the modified file. You sir, are a great person, and I'll be sure to credit you when Buoyancy 1.0b2 rolls around.
NP , for future reference, the file you need to modify is (must decompile first, apktool) res/values/bools.xml and with notepad++ find "animatescreenlights" and change true to false than save and close and compile, glad to know i helped

Please note that you are flashing this at your own risk, and I am in no way responsible for bricked phones, bricked cats, bricked bricks, or anything in between that may result from the flashing of this rom. This is a beta. Please be careful, but do enjoy.

When it comes to the Launcher, I like HTC Sense, when it comes to Touch wiz, I don't like the Dock. I like the app drawer in the middle...I love Google's stock.
There's launcher2.apk for you from my CM7 source (stock GB launcher). It has speed tweaks to make the app drawer open quicker. push to system/app with root explorer, than make permissions match other apks, oh and OP feel free to use this in your ROM

To be included in 1.0b3, although maybe minus the speed tweak .
Thanks for the update! Much appreciated work, my friend. More people need to know about this ROM

Great ROM! I like the battery icon very much. And the launcher, but over all a great ROM. But i did see one weird thing, and I think you just forgot but the build.prop still says 1.0.0 when it's 1.1.0 xD I just installed and very nice! Just gotta test battery life. But I love it.
The absolute one thing that could make this ROM the best would be a nice theme, and as I read your working on that as we speak. It's just amazing what you dev's can come up with. So, from me and everyone else using dev ROM's, Thanks.
Also, a special thanks to M0D1441, he has helped me personally a lot and he really is a great guy. So hit that Thanks button for both of them! And check out M0D's ROM too, great also. I just prefer a more theme'd look and anti-stock as possible, but I love M0D's black/trans drop down bar.
Two great dev's. That's all I have to say for now. Just keep doing what your doing
P.S. If anyone needs a tester, I'm here. It's the least I can do for all the hard work you guys put into these ROM's.

Yeah, this was my bad, I was pretty tired when I finally finished building 1.1.0, and I figured that 1.1.1 would be arriving shortly (which it is), so I just left it as is. Thanks for the great reply though, it was very nice.
cool looking boot screen, so booting as I type, will report back later after a day or so
after just a few minutes, I find I neede to insall MoreLocale2, so I could get English U.S
after first boot it was a little choppy, but it seems is getting faster and faster
So, for now seems solid and stable for day to day usage
I have a question I'd like to pose... What do you guys think of the addition of Apps2SD in the next build? Good idea, bad idea, and maybe some reasons why. I could really use some feedback on this one.
First off nice theme I've been trying a few out seeing which one will help my battery as I've had some issues, since this is a Rogers theme hopefully it will help me out. One thing I've noticed and I don't know if you did this on purpose but on my lockscreen my battery is all random letters. Doesn't really bother me but just throwing it out there. Looking forward to your update, I'd really like to see the 14 notification toggle and volume keys to wake and I also like the battery

Hmmm... I'm not sure if these things are a Roger's issue because I have 14-toggle mod working fine on my AT&T variant. However, a new version will be out today that includes Faux's new kernel, so perhaps that will fix some of the issues.
New ROM with integrated BlackDog V6_SuperCharger script; BlackDog script
LegacyBlackDogROM1.04_MTD.zip
mirror server
MD5 Sum: f2de1fee666b90ce9064e51e0525c48f
Change log: thanks to J2k3, SB03 and cerchiara for suggestions and feedback!
removed custom gallery and added stock 3D gallery due to MMS pics not displaying
added Flash Player from FC09 stock- seems to improve web browsing
added stock Swype- seems to play nice even when paid or trial versions from Play co-exist with stock Swype (Face it; when you upgrade to another flagship phone, you'll need to practice sweeping a keyboard sometime; beats tapping on a tiny virtual kb and missing mostly all the time! Start practicing in landscape mode.)
re-themed Mms.apk (no more transparency wallpaper but chat bubbles are reformed)
re-themed contacts and dialer backgrounds- darker bg image courtesy of MWBehr @ xda from contributed work on transparent contacts on Cut & Paste ROM
re-themed the pull-downs again; sharpened corners & now 10% darker (I may go to 94% opacity like the pull-down transparency; let me know)
re-based the main system apps with a more recent apktool in hopes of increasing compatibility with newer 3rd party apps
note: this was to be a final ROM pending findings and suggestions; suggestions and feedback lead to some of the changes. Thanks for the input and encouragement. This still remains a daily ROM for me but may not be much longer since I'm due an upgrade and looking into new phone releases with 4G-LTE. I think Sprint and Samsung missed opportunities with the S4 and Note 3; I'm still looking for a good tri-band LTE flagship phone! But still hoping to get this ROM to a lesser need to update frequently and still supporting as a user.
Optional:
V6 SuperCharger Options: to add a quick widget for PowerShift on the fly:
1) open ScriptManager and navigate to location of script (V6 uses /data/V6_SuperCharger/PowerShift_Scripts... "Calculator-(8,12, 39,46,53,60)" is default but try as many as you like, use the one you like best), press and ensure Su is highlighted and "Save"d (You can mark as many as you like for quick widgets but do not set as boot; change as needed).
2) find open space on preferred home-screen, press/hold empty space (1x1 is the widget size), scroll left and select "Widgets", scroll to SMWidgets (available from google play if missing; should be in flash included /data/app), click "Add one script widget" and select your desired widget previously marked in first step.
Note: scheduled Flush-O-matic acts as a cache drop for freeing unneeded RAM cache left when exiting an app that may be using a lot of RAM every 4 hours. If you wish to adjust this, you'll need to download the script to adjust options; option 30.

changelog:
Updated /system apps (ADW and SuperSU) just updated
LegacyBlackDogROM1.00_MTD.zip
change log:
integrated BlackDog script with PowerShift scripts; set via SMWidgets (app free versions included in flash as tools/removable bloat)
restored Flush-O-Matic scheduled 4 hour cache' drop; now it will not flush until android sleeps so you're activity is not interrupted or slowed
updated ADW Launcher, Titanium Backup, SuperSU, Google Play (Black Market) & Gallery (now customizable, somewhat but it can be updated in Market or uninstalled for another app, if needed)
rolled back kernel due some concerns of FC09 kernel increasing battery drain after a notification (although my problem was mostly media scan bug due to suspect media, I wasn't the only user suspecting the kernel so I rolled it back)
swapped Talk and Google Search box to blacked-out versions; thanks to RUJELUS22 Themes for blacked out Gmail, Black Market, Talk, & Google Search Box. I've not been finding full functionality of blacked-out apps, recently. But RUJELUS22 blacked apps seem to retain better GB compatibility ATM.

Instructions and warnings:
How do I flash this?
Download, verify md5, back-up in CWM to be safe. If you are already on a TW ROM with MTD/yaffs partitioning, you can keep your data and just wipe cache and dalvik and flash (don't forget to backup, first). If you are on any other type of ROM, you should backup and wipe data first. I have heard from one source that ODIN is not required, if coming from CM but I have not tested that, myself. If trying, remember to flash the ROM twice or flash, reboot recovery and flash again. Note: Large TW kernels do not support TWRP; to be safe, do not inject TWRP recovery. (for CM to TW, personally, I'd recommend back-up, ODIN, root and then flash this). If unsure, read; clean install is the recommended method if having problems. If something does not appear to be working, let me know. This is MTD; if you are coming from ODIN or or currently using BML, this flash will auto-convert to MTD. Note: to get back to BML, you would need to ODIN with victory PIT file and repartion option selected.
To be safe: Be aware that is a development ROM. Although I've flashed and tested this in many different ways, some things still need to be tested. If anything should go wrong, you should be familiar and comfortable with the use of ODIN to recover a semi-bricked device: here.
Description and Credits:
Legacy ROM: an honorary gift from previous and current developers on a now outdated device (yeah, but I hope to get a Galaxy S4 LTE-A or Note 3, soon). As well as the implied: use at your own risk...I am not responsible for anything that could go wrong... please read before asking questions...older download links are at bottom of this post.
What is this? updated 8/1/2013
As the description states: This is a new ROM built from kennyglass123's deodexed from stock FC09 to include all modifications from the gingerbread gits still maintained by SenseiSimple and toadlife. Other mods have been added and available in XDA and elsewhere. Briefly, it includes the mods included in TPR (The People's ROM by kennyglass123) with exception of the flying-in transitions. Legacy ROM uses the ICS transitions found in SenseiSimple's git along with all those found there for TouchWiz FC09 ROMs. I've also added Zeppelinrox's V6 SuperCharger script and Chainfire's latest SuperSU (reverted to Superuser by ChainsDD 9/3/2013). It is rooted but you need to be rooted in order to flash. I've also included Center-Clock-Mod and a smooth scrolling mod. Mms.apk has search and suggestive search fixes that were introduced by modding the AndroidManifest.xml for transparency to wallpaper.
Some images and animations borrowed from ROM Toolbox with jrummy16's explicit permission. There are many others that will be recognized and hopefully, all thanked for their contributions. Additionally, I'd like to thank Travmofosho, kennyglass123 and Nash for porting much of the original theme works to gingerbread. I've also used some theme work from Tha_Dynasty2049, Thomasskull666 and Paul Diddy. If you know of someone I missed, even yourself, please help to credit those that gave freely. As a courtesy, thank them if you like their reproduced work and see them check-in on this thread.
Additional Credits: Thanks all and please help me keep this credit list accurate. Thanks TexasEpic4G for the scenic banner!
"Big thanks to all previous and current developers of the Epic that made this effort simplistically as possible.
Source: FC09 Deodexed with lots of [mod]s- Thanks to kennyglass123 for source deodexed FC09, permission to use the EB/TPR kernel, and for encouraging me to release this. Thanks also to SenseiSimple and toadlife for keeping the GB development git updated.
My mentors (This list is reserved for those that gave direct feedback that helped me in some way. Thanks!): MWBehr, Travmofosho, ÜBER™, Nashdogg, kennyglass123, darkierawr, RandomKing, Ca1ne, flastnoles11, jrummy16, lilajrestnom, gooch1025, SenseiSimple and toadlife. Gosh, what would I know about android without these guys and more, I'm sure there are many more that I've used their work in one way or another, including the credits below.
Features:
Zeppelinrox's V6 SuperCharger script integrated into ROM. You can flash, and perform an extra boot to start service. EarthBound's zipalign included on boot, including initial flash 'n boot. Other V6 options available in Terminal Emulator are sclean, fixfc, vac and flush. Please read his tread. Zeppelinrox links xda updates via tweets.
SuperSU (root)- Read about the SuperSU in XDA, here, and thank Chainfire. Root is now secured by SuperSU.
Sprint Connections Optimizer
Most Bloat removed; see kennyglass123's TPR thread for extra bloat flashable
Samurai custom FC09 kernel
- Voodoo sound
- Voodoo color
- Overclocking (enable higher frequencies in included Control Freak app)
- Undervolting (Stock voltages default; default I/O Scheduler and CPU Governor: vr/Samurai are a good setup for this ROM; alternate could be sio/wheatley)
Logsprovider fix...no texts in log (found in git)
swipe notification mod- thanks Ca1ne
GPS Fix - Thanks Heinkhieu
Hotspot Hack - Thanks Necrosan (found in git)
Modified Power Menu - Thanks to untermensch (found in git)
Scrollable status bar toggles - Thanks SenseiSimple (found in git)
ICS Transitions (found in git)
CRT Off animation (found in git)
CRT-On animation -there are sources for this but I cannot recall the contributor that simplified this mod; help please!
Smooth scroll- thanks AndroidOn (This feature removed in releases, after 7/20/2013)
Volume rocker mod (sound on to vibrate to silent) thanks mkasick (found in git)
Screen stays off when unplugged
No battery full popup (I use a visual "full" icon at the 1% battery because the icon is more accurate than blue light for bump charge users)
Removed audible low battery warning when screen is ON as well as that fake shutdown screech; it's now a silent pop-up at 5%. There are no interruptions of service or impact to performance.
Low Battery audio warning tone still sounds on boot or Screen-Off when battery is less than 5%; powers-down at 0%.
Included visual battery low warnings starting at 14% (battery % changes from white% to Red%) At 4% it starts animating with battery "!" icon.
Charge animation has been simplified; no wasted resources and bulk to animate a charge from current% to 100%; the UOT Decimal animates with charging icon to accomplish a reasonable charge animation. credit or criticism to me on those mods. Other mentionables: UOT Kitchen and LeoMar75 for in-depth GB mod
Center Clock Mod with no notification overlap- thanks to Ticklefish and sdojoin
Modified stock Lockscreen slider and ring- Sorry, I forgot the source of my original png but I modded it.
Some different sounds - thanks to Nash, SenseiSimple and others I'm sure
Blue Gingerbread Keyboard - disable other keyboards to use -thanks GregTard (and Orlzzt for finding it)
Transparent Mms.apk with tinted chat bubbles and fixes for text search and suggested search- by myself and MWBehr
Transparent Contacts- thanks MWBehr
Semi-transparent-curved dialer ported (by samep) from an original work kept alive by Paul Diddy's archive; sorry, I've forgotten the original author's id
Simple In-call dialer theme thanks to Paul Diddy for those buttons, too; backgound by me (samep)
Theme port by me, samep, thanks to the many sources here: Paul Diddy, Travmofosho, Nash, Tha_Dynasty2049, & Thomasskull666. Special thanks to jrummy16 for permission to use images and OG Droid bootanimation from ROM Toolbox; see pull-down animation and hidden GB Easter-egg.
Pull-down-animation with non-transparent background runs once and clears out of view, leaving semi-transparent notification background. All individual dividers removed to allow better view of animation.
TW Launcher (not present in later releases)
Removable apps: Titanium Backup, LBE Privacy, Control Freak, Script Manager and widgets, Voice Serach, and Customizable Gallery.
Intent:
To bring a well-equipped ROM and tool to end-users that is both pleasing to the eye and succeed with minimal flashing and tuning. You may recognize the kernel splash screen; kenny gave permission to use that. (it's the only version of the EB FC09 kernel with notification LED fixed). It's also EarthBound's best kernel for FC09 and needs no special tweaking; defaults are a very good starting point. Voltage Control is included in the flash as well as Titanium Backup, if needed for your paid apps restoration. SuperSU helps to avoid an issue loading wrong su binary from market, if updating to newest superuser but, so far, I've had no issue updating SuperSU and using the suggested su binary it asks the user to upgrade to. The included busy box is the one from SuperCharger Starter Kit and the V6 SuperCharger script is setup to launch at flash but doesn't go continuous service until rebooted once after the initial flash and boot. There is also a programmed 8-hour flush to free up RAM to hopefully reduce lag without inducing lag. You can test and adjust all these scripts to suit yourself but at least you can gain from from not having to set this up, initially. For updates and useful hints; read Zeppelinrox's OP and read some more. The added feature is only the beginning; V6 changes frequently and discussion is both educational and lively. No need to discuss much about V6-SC, here. Start here, if needed. Don't forget to thank him while you're there, if you haven't before. His work is also linked in his signature.
I've also included Black Market and YouTube by B-boy™ among the free apps that may frequently have to be loaded or restored when flashing a new ROM. His blacked-out/inverted and transparent apps are here. Thank him here.
Testing, notes & suggestions:
Testing
As far as I know, Legacy ROM versions are stable. I had asked volunteers to test 4G Wimaxx and hotspot tethering; no 4G here for me. One user of Legacy ROM v1.03 confirms 4G is working... not much complaints but requests were made for changes. I was maintaining more than one version to accommodate some users' requests but some have PM'd farewell wishes as they moved to other forums after phone upgrade so the multiple versions' support has ceased pending further requests which I do consider.
You've tested, now what?
Post your feedback. Request proposed changes. Test and share feedback. Like it? Use it. Wanna change something and share it? Fine but don't forget to credit the sources, including myself (some of my work is in there, too.)
Some V6_SuperCharger notes are here.
Color issues? see this post for voodoo app settings. thanks to Marcusant, lilajrestnom, and elevans for options, testing and searching.
Force Close or black screen with or without shutdown Issues? You need a good Superuser application that updates the su binary correctly on this phone, Superuser by ChainsDD and Superuser by ClockworkMod have been tested. ChainsDD su binary 3.0.3.2 can be found in BlackDogROM1.03 seems best suited to quickly and correctly declare a Force Close and allow you to Force a Close of app and continue without hanging up or rebooting. Sadly, there are third-party apps that can be tested but the developers have been notified of the issues. Android 2.3 is not fully supported by third-party apps but mostly functional. And I found that newer su binaries don't seem to be expecting these issues and SuperSU and some others were not correctly updating the su after install or upgrade. I was manually updating SuperSU and releasing new ROMs until I realized the Force Close issues were not properly declared and hanging the UI for prolonged periods. No disrespect intended to developers; I think we all share the burden for the unanticipated actions that lead to Force Closes so I'm not pointing any fingers. The Superuser apps are probably best suited for rooting and maintaining root newer devices, anyway.
Screenies and quick note: battery used for capacity testing is a 2000 mAh third-party product with GT18 months of use; on average, it provides about an extra hour of display time compared to the 1500 mAh OEM battery which still performs well. Some third-party batteries may actually be smaller in size, requiring extra backing to keep secure contact with terminals; my OEM battery fits tighter than any battery I've purchased. (I use a strand of electrical tape running along bottom, back and top of battery to fill the void.)

I have yet to compile an accurate list of included features and credits. My notes on file at home were lost due to a local issue and I'm gathering that data again to post in the development thread at a later time. Meanwhile, this is ready for testing. I need volunteers to test 4G Wimaxx and hotspot tethering; no 4G here for me.
You've tested, now what?
Post your feedback. Request proposed changes. Offer to help with screenshots and decorative forum splashes, if inclined to share something useful to others considering a test run of their own. Like it? Use it. Wanna change something and share it? Fine but don't forget to credit the sources, including myself (some of my work is in there, too.)
Suggestions:
Other than just going back to your favorite launcher, the Lightning Launcher can be easily setup to suit your own use. I recommend adding to each home-screen before removing all that is there to preserve that screen's programmed stops. Otherwise, the setup becomes a little more complicated. The tutorials are linked on home-screen. The initial setup is very good if you only need three home-screens. You can add many more and even scroll up, down, left, right for multiple home-screens if you like. The dated thread on LL suggests that you have to buy a widget to use your app widgets; no longer the case, you can setup app widgets. Live wallpaper is supported but AFAIK, you have to set a shortcut in gestures to do that: I used "Two Fingers Down" swipe gesture and selected "wallpaper" function from the drop-down list to get LWP supported. I also programmed the Home key to get notifications from pull-down; interestingly, now the Back key finds my home screen like the former Home key when viewing the home-screens.

Nice job samep. Good to see you still continuing on with the work we once started. Sorry that I haven't been around much to help. Been trying to learn new things from the pros and family and personal life has taken much of my time. Luckily there are other talented minds out there in effsi and dropple and bthorne79 and saramon to help keep us Rollin on the good ol OG epic. This is the best group of guys I've ever worked with. Gonna test this as soon as I get to my PC. Thanks bro.

Thanks, man! Congrats again on your ROM. Been missing the communication we once had but we've been busy working other things! It's all good; I wish you success in that and whatever is next!

Working on it but it's not really in my skill set. Anyone willing to make some; please do.
If you saw Cut & Paste Extra Crispy version, the differences would be most noted in theme, animated pull-down, boot animation, charge animation and lock screen. The large UOT Decimal 0-100% battery remains but I centered the clock and moved the low battery warning from wherever it was to 5%. The bonus on the warning is that if your screen is on, no audible warning; just a visual pop-up. I was able to remove that fake shutdown that would interrupt services like hang-up a phone call in-progress. No more startling warning tones while your holding the phone but if the screen is off or you boot with battery 5% or less, you will get the audible warning of low battery.
So to characterize low battery warnings while display remains on:
LT 15% battery % indicator turns from white to red (as in Cut & Paste Extra-Crispy)
5% you get a pop-up warning to plug-in.
LT 5% an animation starts to cycle between battery % (red) to !battery symbol.
0%-phone turns off
Use responsibly; you have been warned; lol! I did this for my own liking; what do you think? Keep it or go back to 15% or 20% screeeeech-fake-shutdown? Personally, that annoyed me. The best way to get 100% out of our battery is to wipe the battery stats when flashing new ROM or less than 50% on a reboot. If you needed until it shut down; you'd have it without it interrupting service. No risk to battery life AFAIK.
Actually, the differences are mostly in animation and function that screen shots may miss. IDK how in-depth screenshots can go; a video review may reveal more about this ROM than screenshots(?) I didn't give it wallpaper but I am open to suggestions.

COOL! I will try this out sometime this week when I can "borrow" my daughter's laptop ( since I'm gonna need to use Odin)

Was pretty cool to play around with. Love the drop down animation. It seemed very smooth. You did a great job on this samep.

Thanks for trying and posting feedback. My wife and 6yo daughter even gave their approval on the drop down animation.

Screen shots? I know you explained how it looks but to see it would be nice.

Sorry, I've been slacking on the screenies. I just added 3 to the OP.
The wallpaper is not default (yet); let me know if this one is wanted or not. I'm taking requests for wallpaper but I do want to keep it dark and natural looking. This one is time lapsed.
Working on an update due to some market apps updating and minor appearance changes.
Possible revision upcoming and V6_SuperCharger Notes
I'm now holding off on an update I had uploaded & posted in OP; sorry to say that it looks like one of the build.prop may be breaking bluetooth. If you installed v1.02, test Bluetooth ( I couldn't get mine to turn on until I backed the build.prop out and went back to to a revised one). I'll see if I can add some battery savers in and leave out whatever is impacting Bluetooth enable). Removing the link until I sort this out. I would delete the post but the notes about V6_SuperCharger may still be of some use.
upcoming change log
update market apps
minor theme change (most of them in extended power menu and alternate AOSP lockscreen)
possibly add more battery saving tweaks to build.prop to test; from here.
Now may be a good time to review (for those not familiar) the script commands found in Zeppelinrox's thread.
To Test:
Open a Terminal Emulator session and type "cat /proc/*/cmdline | grep Super" (only what is inside the quotes)
If you get only "Super", the service is not running.
If running, the return also returns /system/etc/init.d/99SuperCharger & /data/99SuperCharger.sh
Things to look for:
browse to sdcard and see if a file something like "!SuperCharger.html" exists. If so, the text inside has a link to a help file from Zeppelinrox to help you. As a troubleshooting help, the file copies to your sdcard when running the script. You can also delete this file after running the script successfully to know that if it appears again, there may be an issue running a service a boot. Just remember, it may have appeared again because you ran the script but did not delete it.
You can also check your logs found at /data (use a root browser to navigate and check) for the various services ran at boot; they may give clues to problems encountered. You can also read the script for your setup. Note: I used thses while troubleshooting the integration of V6_SuperCharger into the ROM. I don't anticipate problems unless you've made changes.
How to make changes:
You'll need to download the latest Zeppelinrox script. see the OP for link; you also need this for updates to V6_SuperCharger services. Outside of flashing this ROM, your support for V6_SuperCharger service should come from searching and reading his thread.
Sorry, but to uninstall V6-SuperCharger, you'll need to download the script.
If you have no previous settings but want to make changes, run the script and select "Driver Options" to make those changes.
Already have V6_SuperCharger and don't want my setup?
I have not tested this theory but I think if you run the script and charge from sdcard (default) on your initial boot, you will overwrite all my settings. Also, I think as long as the script is not run, your SDcard settings remain unchanged. No guarantees; I have not tested this.
Terminal Emulator Options:
type "su" then V6_SuperCharger command as follows, below
"fixalign"- Two operations in one- fix permissions and zipalign
"vac"- cleans the Database
"sclean"- superclean and restart (really not necessary as service is setup to continually run)
"flush"- delete some cache to make more RAM available
Note: want to do all the above? Just reboot; done!
Note: There is a delay in starting the SuperCharger Service after a boot. Due to startup programs and other services trying to start, you cannot expect initial speediness after a boot. I've tried to keep the phone on a flush schedule of 8 hours. It's also untested but there could be times that an timely flush could cause lag. Please let me know if this becomes an issue and any steps you may have tried or are familiar with to avoid this possibility. It's possible that a ScriptManager Widget for "vac" may work better on demand. Thanks!
Running this now--extremely awesome ROM! It is fast, smooth, and stable for me. I'll test 4g tomorrow when I go out (dont have it at home).
Request: Can you give an option to disable the android drawing when the notification bar is pulled down? It's cool, but pretty distracting when it does it every time.
Thanks for your hard work
Re: [ROM][FC09][TW-MTD] Legacy ROMv1.01
Well, I can remove it altogether and post an alternate download.
Do you like the aosp lock screen better than TouchWiz? I was gonna post a link for one, later. If so, I'll make them in one flash. No pulldown animation with aosp lock screen included.

My vote definitely goes for AOSP lockscreen, it always seemed easier on the thumb. Also I'm for a no animation version
v1.03 with AOSP lock-screen, no animated pull-down and updates
Download: FC09.LegacyROMv1.03_MTD.zip (linked in OP); Please read updated flash instructions just below...
Flash Instructions:
Backup data or nandroid
Wipe data, cache and dalvik
Flash ROM
Restore Data or advanced restore data from nandroid
Reboot once more
Note: This version has been removed; discovered why it can only be clean installed. New version to be released, soon.
change log:
improved V6_Supercharger integration
improved some .png's for AOSP lock-screen and extended power-menu
added a few more battery saver tweaks to build.prop- thanks omair2005
removed pull-down animation
removed Lightning Launcher and installed ADW Launcher
updated market apps

Ok got a chance to test 4g. It activates but cant connect in the area where I used to get 4g. It's possible though that there is a network issue in my area
Edit: do i need a full wipe to go 1.02>1.03?
