Hey guys,
I am a big fan of ASOP so I've been looking for good replacement for the KB and found
1) Thanks to Aloysius from his Hero threat - ASOP KB signed. Just flash it over any ROM and you will get ASOP KB
2) My friend owns a Droid Incredible so he told me today that they got Swype working, but damn it looks so much better than what I've seen before. I am attaching screenshots and the actual apk.
Both work
Landscape mode for the upcoming questions
Good luck
Does this have the correct landscape resolution?

is that the latest updated swype?
I love that droid skin for swype too bad it doesnt have the voice to txt button
Thank you very much, will this one expire any time soon?
How do I install this. I tried downloading the file and I keep getting parse error. I deleted all the files in my download folders and even downloaded it on my work pc and sent it as an email attachment.
I can do the swype but how to do I apply the ASOP.

You have to go to Recovery mode and apply the update. It is a signed rar update.
Oh man. Me and this Evo battled last night for hours trying to root this thing. Ok so I'm guessing I'll download file, put it on SDcard, turn off, hold volume down and press power and just choose that file?

Yes, download the zip file, place it in your SD, boot into recovery - Flipz green screen - OR - Rom manager - blue screen
Apply update from sdcard, locate the zip and press the power button to apply it.
Then reboot, go to your phone settings, Keyboard settings and you will see Android KB available.
Lastly, open either your sms or email, tap your finger in the input screen to chose different input, and chose Android KB.
That should be it.
I will try that.
check out ROM Manager if you are fully rooted..very easy!
Ok. I downloaded it and uninstalled the Swype that I previously had. I'm assuming I'd have to download the new Swype to work with this keyboard. I went into input method and I see 2 options for Android Keyboard. I'm guessing it doesn't matter which one I choose correct?
I'll check out ROM manager.
Yay! I did it looks sweet.
Where was this apk to download? I want to download this version ASAP

Features:
Deodexed

Not sure if everyone know's this, but all my releases come with a widget that looks just like the HTC Clock called Fancy Widgets.
Please report bugs to me as you find them. Best way to contact me is email me at [email protected] or my GTalk Matt4542.
How to install:Important!
You will need to download Koush's bootstrap application and bootstrap your recovery. Then you can boot into recovery via the same app or you can install via ROM Manager(by rebooting into recovery, not via install rom from sdcard). Once you boot into recovery do a FULL nandroid backup and then you go to mounts and storage and mount /system manually to avoid more issues. Install zip from sdcard and toggle signature verification to disable. Now you can install the zip from the sdcard. Once this is done, reboot.
Now after reading all that here is your download!

Thanks for using Epic the first DROID 2 rom! Say thanks if you like it
I am trying to buy a domain name to host my files. All I need is $15 dollars. You do not have to do this if you do not want to. It is just to help me out a little bit Please donate as little as $1 to my PayPal [email protected]. Thanks if you do!
NOTE: Updated September 7th, 2010. Added additional steps to the process. Reread to reapply the Epic Unleashed 1.1!
Please READ each direction CAREFULLY and BEFORE executing each step. I can not stress how many mistakes are made because someone did not READ the directions carefully. So... yeah, once again, READ THE DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY!
How to Apply EpicUnleashed 1.1
Credits: The ROM was created by Matt4542. Tutorial was written by me with some simple directions from Matt. You'll need to be rooted in order to run the Droid 2 Bootstrapper.
The fine print: Matt4542 and/or I (DarkOnion) can not be held responsible if you mess up. If you mess up, you mess up. That's why I wrote the .sbf recovery tutorial. Matt has also written one. More simple, but requires Linux.
Here we go.
1. Download Koush Bootstrap here.
http://koush.tandtgaming.com//motorola/droid2/Droid2Bootstrap.apk
2. Download Epic Unleashed 1.1!
http://www.epic.grrmode.com/Epic-Unleashed11Deodexed.zip
3. Move both files to the base of the SD Card. Best way to do this is to plug your phone into your computer and move it like that. Make sure you phone is in USB mass storage mode. To change it, pull down the notification blind, choose USB connection, and choose USB Mass storage. Now copy and paste the two files to the new removable drive that showed up in your My Computer. The Epic-Unleashed11Deodexed.zip needs to be at the base of the SD card, and not in any folders. After moving all the files over to the phone, change the connection type back to Charge Only. Notfication blind -> USB Connection -> Charge only.
4. Install Koush Droid 2 Bootstrapper. Using an app installer, Astro File Manager, or equivalent, navigate to your SD card. The folder in Astro File Manager will be called sdcard. Choose Droid2Bootstrap.apk and install it. Follow the directions.
5. Now that it is installed, open Droid 2 Bootstrapper located in your applications section menu. It'll probably ask you for Super User access, say yes.
6. Press Bootstrap Recovery. It'll probably ask you for Super User access, say yes.
7. Next, we want to back your system file up by making a system image. In the Droid2 Bootstrapper, which you are already in, choose Reboot Recovery. Your phone should restart and load up into the bootloader.You should see some green text with various options, and a little lower than the middle of the screen, it says ClockworkMod Recovery.
Notes for navigating through the system. You need to use the keyboard to navigate. "Enter" will select. "Del" will cancel/go back. and the arrows are movement.
8. Using your slide out keyboard, scroll down to backup and restore and press the enter key. It should take you to another window. Choose Backup. Let it runs it's course. After it is all said and done. Reboot your phone by choosing reboot system now. (I don't think the rebooting is necessary, but I am just going to do it be safe.)
9. After you are done rebooting, if you did this, go back to the Droid 2 Bootstrapper, and choose Reboot Recovery. It'll reboot, and you'll eventually be back at the screen with the green text.
10. Using your keyboard buttons, choose mount and storage. And then choose mount /system. After that, press del to go back to the main menu.
11. Using your keyboard buttons, choose install zip from sdcard.
12. You need to make sure signature verification is off. Choose toggle signature verification and make sure it is off. At the bottom, under ClockworkMod Recovery, it'll say whether or not signature verification is enabled or disabled. You want it to say that it is disabled.
13. Then choose install zip from sdcard. Choose Epic-Unleashed11Deodexed.zip. It'll ask to confirm. Scroll down to Yes, and press enter. You'll see some commands going and eventually say it is complete.
14. Now navigate back to the main menu by pressing "Del" on the keyboard. And restart your phone by choosing reboot system now. It'll reboot and that's it! You've added EpicUnleashed 1.1.
Note: Your first boot will take a little while, up to 10 minutes. PLEASE BE PATIENT. You know that you corrected updated if your start-up animation is different.
If you need to undo this thing, boot back up into bootloader using Droid 2 Bootstrapper -> Reboot Recovery -> Back Up and Restore (after the reboot) -> Restore.
If you like this tutorial or any other tutorial, please feel free to show your gratitude by sending me a few bucks my way. I am a poor college student always trying to make ends meet.

And please don't forget about Matt. Send some love his way, too. It takes time create this stuff, not to mention troubleshoot, fix, and update. Make sure you send some love his direction. He needs money for a domain name. Paypal him at: [email protected]
If anyone comes across and problems with instructions, please let me know. I am going to try to keep this thread updated and easy to use.

Maybe you can put the launcher2.apk for 2.2 as the main homescreen. I downloaded it from the droid incredible forum on my phone and everything is working alot snappier on my end. Still using stock just looking and waiting until everything is figured on this rom.

As a test for now just try to install your recovery from ROM Manager and boot into recovery that way. It is untested but it is worth a shot.

Actually all of the bugs have been ironed out. It is a problem with the recovery. It may affect you, may not. I would put the stock Froyo launcher but I am not going to risk screwing with blur and causing more problems now. I will do it in a later release.
ya i installed it, but i did it from my downloads folder, it took like 3 seconds and nothing is new lol, i will have to try from the root i guess.

Yes and no. It'll is suppose to help clean up some of the junk that is on the phone. Have you rooted yet, because if you haven't... you need to do that before you flash a fixed version.
Yep I have already rooted it but I am in the stage where it says to make sure that my signature check is disable mine is enable how do I get it disabled sorry for being such a noob lol i got 5th in the state of Minnesota for computer repair but I I haven't done this kinda of stuff before

Yup. It does work. Thank you to you sir, and thank you to Matt for walking me through the updating process. I have updated the tutorial to reflect the changes.
Make your boring old 3G icon on status bar to the new Fancy 4G LTE icon.
Screenshots attached below
-Download the zip file
-Move the file to root of SD card
-Install via Bootstrap if you don't have bootstrap the apk is below move that to Root of SD card also and then install on phone
-Open bootstrap app hit "Bootstrap Recovery" then hit "Reboot Recovery"
-After it reboots hit install from sd card using volume rocker buttons then select it with red camera key
-Pick the file "3G to 4G LTE icon.zip" and install it
-Then reboot your phone
-Theres your fancy 4G LTE icon
ENJOY!
Umm....no
Can I have the stock HTC EVO boot animation while you're at it. What's the point of modding 4G LTE on there when we don't have 4G LTE?
Haha thats pretty Sick! I'm gona go trick my friends now lol

Guys its not an update.zip file. Its just the file in a compressed format. Unzip it then push it to where it belongs. It won't install because their is no updater-script

how do you push it and to where?
Ahahaha, you guys need to look at what you download. Anytime you download a .zip file check to see if a META-INF folder in it because then it means it can be flashed. He didn't put in and update.zip because then he could only share with one or two phones. Thanks for the OP and good work...

I'm sure you guys were newbies ones which means you can't just post in the development section. So ease up its not the end of the world.
Yea Black Ice is not a theme, what I mean is the use of wallpapers, icons the notification bar and lock screens are great don't you call that the theme. Hello common sense.

Quick Steps For N00bs like me (ext4 and black ice)
I had to mess with my phone to get the settings right but I popped the android cherry with this Rom. I'll save the rest of you the trouble of going through the steps I did.
If you tried ext4 and reflashed with another rom, your cache will not mount until you use the rfs formatter zip and reattempt.
Files Needed:
Odin 1.7 +
BlackIce_KD1Base.zip (Stable Release from dev forum thread)
ext4converter (from dev forum thread)
rfs_formatter (in case you mess up from same thread as ext4)
update.zip (from final cwm thread in dev forum)
Assuming you are not on ext4:
1) Download stock kd1 and flash onto phone using odin.
Make sure partition is not checked. Click the pda button in odin and direct it towards the PDA_KD1.tar.md5file. Make sure that your phone is in download mode, odin will let you know its ready when one of the ports on the screen lights up yellow. If you cannot get to download mode through the buttons, take out the battery, plug in the usb, hold down the volume up and down key + power, and then pop the battery in while holding those keys until you get into download mode.
When you succeed installing the rom through odin, you will boot up into the samsung recovery menu. Just choose reboot and then place all the files listed above in the root of the sdcard through the stock rom os. This is because if you use the rfs formatter, it will wipe all data from your sdcard. If you got stuck at the samsung 4g screen after ext4, you have to start the process over by using the rfs formatter.
2) After installing all files in the root of the sdcard, navigate to quickboot and choose recovery. The phone will boot into the samsung recovery mode with blue text. Choose Reinstall packages from samsung recovery menu to enter cwm (it will be in blue text). Make sure you have the update.zip file from the final cwm version in the development section or this will not load.
3)Changing the mounts the first time.
go into the mounts menu and alter it to read like this:
unmount cache
unmount data
mount sdcard
unmount system
4)Goto the option install a zip from sdcard and find the ext4converter. Choose this zip file and let it do its work.
******************WARNING****************
After ext4converter seems finished, do not immediately choose the BlackIce zip to flash. Navigate back to the mount menu and set the settings so it reads:
unmount cache
mount data
mount sdcard
unmount system
5)Goto the option to install a zip again and choose the BlackIce Zip file.
Wait until it completes successfully and you should be back in the cwm menu
6) Choose reboot, and if you did it successfully, you will see the team whiskey boot up animation. Congratulations, you are winning, but not as awesome as Charlie Sheen.
If not, you will be stuck at the samsung galaxy 4g screen for a couple minutes. This means start back at step 1.
When you manage to get the stock rom loaded, you have to use quickboot and go into recovery to use the rfs formatter zip. This will wipe your sd card, so as soon as it finishes running, boot up the stock android, place all those files back onto the root of the sd card and begin from step 2 again.
I know this tutorial is a little longwinded, but I feel that its more helpful this way. Just bits and pieces by the rest of you guys wasted me a lot of man hours.
Edit For New Stable Release:
If you followed my instructions, and are on the first stable black ice and ext4, this is how you update to stable 2 and Bali v 3.0 sgs4g
Download blackice_voodoo.zip or stable release 2 from dev section
Download bali v3.0 kernel sgs4g from the dev section
Place these files on the root of the sdrom
Boot into cwm
Set the mount points to read:
unmount
mount
mount
unmount
and then choose install zip packages and choose the blackice_voodoo.zip
let it install and then goto advanced in the cwm menu and choose recovery reboot
you should see the red voodoo menu and then go ahead and check the voodoo options so that all options are enabled except for the debugging features on the bottom.
Go ahead and go back and choose install zip in the voodoo recovery and choose the bali v3.0 kernel on the root sd
it will say kernel successfully installed and then you will go to the samsung galaxy 4g screen for about 4 minutes.
******Warning*********
You will hear a voice 'Linda' even with headphones plugged in and the phone on vibrate only. It will count down from 3 minutes. You have been warned. I am embarassed to show my face in the office now. The robotic voice yelling a countdown and all the other people in the cubicles are looking at me funny. FML.
Anyways enjoy.
lol great instructions again btw. i've wasted more time fiddling with mounts combos and permissions than with the actual rom today lol
Would a little kindness kill you, ak4life23?
All we want to do is keep the forums organized.
No, it isn't a big deal that you made one mistake. But I think we'd all appreciate next time that you didn't do this.
Second, this isn't a theme, it's a ROM. The ROM includes a theme Krylon ported from another source. So, common sense would be that you called the actual theme the CORRECT name, "Mr. Apoc Black Knight Theme", and not "Black Ice".
And no matter what you modify, what **most** people call a theme is a ZIP you can flash that changes the wallpapers, colors, notification bars, or lock screens.
Not to be overly critical or rude, but just saying as a fellow user.
Thank you :]
when did they change that u couldnt post on the dev forums as a new user cause umm my firsts posts were on those same forums intrusting but ya its nice what u posted but tbh for sake of the forums the questions should have been directed to the thread that already contains the rom

Wow this rom is sick... i just barely finished doing a backup of stable#1 and was just about to load up and flash the new release just a few minutes ago.. stable#2. But.. after just 2 reboots the 1st build is moving around like butter, AMAZING ROM over and over again from krylon
Hi all,
This is an basic how to for reflashing a Stock-ROM.
I made this so the newbies can reflash their phone to stock after trying out any other awesome ROM.. And to prevent these questions in the threads!
REQUIREMENTS
Original Samsung Cable
Odin V4.43 (Click me!)
AriesVE.OPS (click me!)
Samsung Drivers installed ( Download and install Samsung KIES!)
Patience
'
STEP BY STEP GUIDE
You have downloaded Odin and AriesVE.ops (Yes?)
Great, lets get started!!!
First: Open the taskmanager on your computer (ctrl+alt+del). Go to "Processes" and search for:
Note: Samsung KIES has been updated to version 2.5
Code:
KIES.EXE
KIESPDLR.EXE
KIESTRAYAGENT.EXE
KIESAIRMESSAGE.EXE
Close all of these... :good:
Next: Download your ROM ( for stock ROM go to Samfirmware.com and make an account and search for GT-I9001) Download the correct ROM ( it is an .zip file so unzip it, if it's password protected the password could be samfirmware.com )
You can also download from here: http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9001#
For an easy way check this list: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002171 (©Outerh3aven) here you can find every stock rom atm availeble.
Then: Open Odin, if your computer is running on Windows 7 or Vista select Odin and press the right mouse button in and select "Run as Administator"
Then: In odin select "One Package". In the line OPS you have to put AriesVE.ops, so click browse and search for the file.
Then on the bottom of Odin you'll see "One package" Select the StockROM you just downloaded.
Then: Turn off your phone and turn it on in Download mode ( Volume Down + Home + Power) and connect your phone to the computer.
You'll notice a yellow square with COMM(3)! and in the log you'll see Detected!! and Added!!
Simply pres START and grab a beer :laugh:.
Your phone will reboot in recovery to finisch the job. After this it will reboot again and your phone is back to Stock. This proces takes time so be patience!!
Pro's:
- Stock so you have your warranty back :victory:
- Stable (only the launcher is not stable.. )
Con's:
- Full with bloatware
- No root and not able to use apps which require root
- No theming
- No OTA
- No ICS or JB
Some things that can happen during flashing:
- Odin gets stuck at Setup connection!!
> Just remove phone (you'll see FAIL!! dont worry!) remove battery for 10 sec and try again..
- Hang at boot
> Remove battery, turn your phone on in recovery and wipe cache and wipe data/factory reset
-Odin is not responding
> Dont do anything!!! Wait and see what happens!
Some advice:
When the flashing process gets stuck at System.img.ext4 download. Try it again for at least 2 times.
If that doesnt work for you. Flash BroodROM RC5.
You'll wonder why :silly:
Well, for some reason it fixes the partitions and after the installation of BroodROM RC5 your phone will reboot succesfully.
Hit thanks if you think it's usefull!!

Great tut!
To get the warranty back, you have to reinstall the stock recovery too.

Haha thanks.
Lets hope our mods think the same.
It should be sticky, and this would be nice if it was also written on the SGS+ Wiki page

Hi, thanks for posting. I'm glad you did it. But one thing is the title is a bit confusing. I think you can try renaming it to How to flash back to Stock ROM.
One more question by the way. What is the SS_DL.dll file for It's put along with the md5 in the zip file.
It's useless. Just delete it

No I didn't do that. Is it necessary? Because last time i tried flashing to others without doing that.
Yes. I would fail sometimes if you didn't run as admin. Also disable kies, anti virus and firewall.
