-Added build.prop lines to increase mobile data speed.
-Added OOMkiller and S97 Ramscript (Juwe's RAM optimization script) to /system/etc/init.d

-New Market 3.0.27
-Removed HTC bloat (HTC Like.apk, HTCReccomends.apk, Facebookchat.apk [battery drain])
[For a temporary fix for the Android 2.3.3 Battery Drain, turn off Quiet ring on pickup, Pocket Mode, and Flip for Speaker in Settings > Sound.]
I also suggest going into no-frills CPU control, setting the max cpu at 806, and min at 245/320. Set governor to interactive and I/O scheduler to V/R. Great speed.
TO DELETE APPS YOU DON'T WANT, DOWNLOAD A FILE EXPLORER, GO TO /SYSTEM/APP, MOUNT R/W, AND DELETE THE .APK. I WILL NOT BE DELETING OR ADDING ANYMORE BLOAT.

I am not sure. Likely not.
great brswatt - been waiting for this thread
will give it a shot later today
What's the difference between this port and the ones by Drowningchild?
I'm currently using his "Pico de Gallo" ROM, and aside from being slightly laggy in the UI, it's very nice.
what kernel are you using?
drowningchild said:

I'm using the one that came with the Pico de Gallo ROM - no modifications (except install DT Ap2SD).
The difference is that its based off the Europe RUU and look at the change log.
Currently using the same kernel as the pico one.

So if I understand correctly then, the European version will function exactly as the Pico version, right?
What are the advantages of using one over the other (other than the additional features listed in the change log)?

I don't know every other advantage/disadvantage, but it's more updated the the Hong Kong RUU one.
And this ROM will be worked on and be more stable than the pico one in the future.

Great. Thanks for working on this. I really like the latest Sense UI. I've always liked Sense, and this is giving me more reason to stay with it.
anyone got a faster download site :?
Lol ima make a mirror later tonight. That site usually works good for me
Sent from my HTC Aria using XDA App
ok, just downloaded -
did a nandroid backup first (was running Genes 2.2.2)
did a full wipe - cache clean - etc. . .
Installed - rebooted - no problems
(*took a little , very little , bit of time to load up - but that is to be expected)
WiFi - working great - no probls
GSP - working great- first time - 25 seconds - after that - almost instantaneously.
FM Radio - working! on my Aria that is (ATT Carrier - USA)
(*takes a little bit of time for it to hone into the frequency it seems - but working)
Takes a minute for it to turn on too -
****Wooops - I take that back - it worked the very first time - now it sits in the loop- of Turning on [FM turning on ..... 100% , then turns off]
BT doesnt work - as mentioned before.
please put source of me as the kernel
Yeah I'll get to that!

Drowningchild is not going to update those ROMS. I also don't have any plans to work on a Wildfire S rom at this time.

Remember to check MD5 Checksum before flashing !!!
With 4.0 beta ROMs I strongly recommend flashing Radio_12.41.60.19_26.06.04.14_M radio.
You need RADIO S-OFF in order to do it properly.
Using a "non matched" radio could have a negative effect on performance, battery life & signal strength.
Don't flash RADIO from ClockworkMod recovery! Extract downloaded file and read the guide inside!

Q 2: My Premium Navigation doesn't work correctly. What should I do?
A: Your Premium Navigation may not work correctly for number of reasons. Most of them are not ROM related. You can try following things:
- reinstalling Locations under Settings ---> Locations
- removing from your SD card /sdcard/.data/navigator/Data/Temporary
- re-downloading maps
- clearing data from Google Maps
Q 3: When my phone is plugged with a cable and I want to go to hboot then it always takes me directly to recovery. Why is that?
A: This is a common issue with ClockworkMod recovery. Please unplug your cable and try again.

A: You can application called No-frills. Remember to check "Allow on boot" option.

Q 6: After flashing Android Revolution HD my SD card is being mounted as ready only. What should I do?
A: Connect your SD card to your PC and do defragmentation process. If you still have some problems with SD card, please read this.
Mac users can use the repair function of the MacOS disk utility to solve the read only problem (Thanks to Calimero1205).
Q 7: My CPU load is all the time nearly 100% and in most part it's used by system. What is the reason of that high CPU usage and how can I fix it?
A: Delete your htcsense.com account. It takes A LOT of your battery and CPU usage.

Q 8: Do I need to wipe data partition when upgrading from old version of Android Revolution HD to new one?
A: I always recommend wiping data partition but it's absolutely necessary only if I mention that in the changelog. But normally you can live without it.
Wipe data partition if you experience some issues.
Q 9: I have some strange issues with my ROM that nobody reported before. What should I do in first place?
A: In first place you should check if the MD5 Checksum is correct. Then flash ROM again and see if the issue is gone. A lot of strange issues can be solved this way.

Q 10: I had SetCPU installed on Android Revolution HD, I flashed new version of AR HD and SetCPU doesn't work any more. How to fix it?
A: Please reinstall SetCPU.
Q 11: I can't send/receive MMS or I can't connect with mobile data connection. How can I fix it?
A: Please check your MMS or mobile data connection APN settings.

Q 12: My phone got random freezes or reboots. How can I fix it?
A: Every CPU is different. It seems that your CPU doesn't like OC or UV (undervolt). Try to set in SetCPU max value to 1Ghz.
If it doesn't help, then you need to flash default kernel from the second post.
Q 13: My proximity sensor doesn't seem to work anymore. How can I fix it?
A: Please check this thread for further help.

Q 14: My GPS signal is very weak. How can I improve it?
A: You can download and install FasterFix to improve your signal strength.
Q 15: Clock/weather widget doesn't show my location. How can I fix it?
A: Please clear data from Google Maps, Clock Widget, Weather, HTC weather sync provider and Weather Provider
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Q 16: My Quadrant score is not as high as on different ROM. What does it mean?
A: It means absolutely nothing. Benchmarks on Android System are more or less lottery and they are not showing the real system performance.
There are many settings that can force Quadrant to show more then 3000 points but it's faked performance, that actually can slow down your phone in some circumstances.
What I always emphasize is a real performance, the one you can feel under your finger. Remember, that I/O has some limit and surpassing it shows just a numbers without true ratio.

Just flashed 4.0, I'm loving it. With some optimization this will be my favorite ROM. Love how the app drawer is separated by pages, so the scroll stops at each page rather than having to stop it manually. It might just be me but the camera seems to autofocus faster. I LOVE the Quick Settings in the Notification pull down area..now it has all the widgets I use right there...that's handy. The keyboard does seem a little snappier. I'll play around a little more and see what I find.
I did flash the audio fix on top of it as the audio sounded like crap when I originally flashed. I've only tested calling my voicemail, but she sounds much better with the fix
The mail app still won't let me connect my hotmail via Exchange active sync, which I'm able to do with another email.apk I found... oh well, certainly not a dealbreaker
Edit: And I can't find where to turn off fastboot.. no big deal as I can still get into boot loader by holding Vol - while restarting, it's just nice to have the option of getting in there from power down too....
Edit: Nevermind, found it under Settings --> Power
Edit: I also seemed to be having reception/service issues with stock radio. M2 radio seems to have corrected this
jeeez that was quick wasn't it just released yesterday?

ActiveSync works just fine with my Exchange 2007 environ on every Sense device I have tested on it.
<----Exchange admin for ~6000 mailboxes.
To the people that have tried 3.0, how much better do you find 4.0?
Did you apply 4.0 over 3.0 , or wiped first.

Is this any faster then say the generic rooted gingerbread leak?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Does anyone know what I should look out for when trying to backup/restore using titanium backup if I'm going into this rom from ARHD 3.0 froyo? I assume apps that are already gingerbread ready are good to go and basic settings like wifi saves and sms backup?
Just flashed again, still having the sync issue. I can't change the sync times under Accounts and Sync. This seems to be happening on all the leaked 2.3 builds. Otherwise i love it.
GPS does not wanna lock for me.
Edit: as i typed it got a lock. took about 4 mins.
hi mike, first of all, thanks for this great rom. just installed it, have 1 issue, can't install live wallpaper. it says rosie utility has stop. i also have a question, can i install oc kernel from apache 14? btw, i had issues installing the rom until i had format data. i think it should be mandatory rather than recommended. thanks.
HELP!
I just formatted/wiped my SD card so I can go from 3.0 to 4.0. When I went into rom manager to install rom from SD...my screen went to Hboot and then turned black. I'm able to get it back into hboot, but when I go to recovery...it just fades to black. I'm a noob...so I'm hoping that I didn't screw it up TOO bad. I think I lost goldcard status...I put the sdcard back in my computer to reload the img. Could that be what's wrong?
Is there a way to backup how I have all the apps and widgets layed out on the homescreens? I downloaded Titanium Backup but it doesn't seem like it has a feature like that. I am a noob to Android as well.

If you use Launcher Pro, or ADW ex then yes. If you like the HTC Rosie launcher im unaware of a way to do that.

When I went form the HTC Evo to the Inspire I used titanium back up. It messed up my phone. If you are going to use it restore the apps one by one. Google backs them up for you anyway.

You dont need to format your sd card to put new rom on it. you might have ereased your recovery image. Put a rom you know works and rename it pd98img put that on the root of the sd card which is not in a folder and boot into the bootloader. It should reflash the rom. if not go and download the stock rooted and remane it that.

Important notes:
1. If you want to say "Thanks!"
There are many ways to show your support to the developer. You can:
Press the "Thanks" button.
Hit the donation button and "buy me a beer".
Share your opinion about my work and write some feedback in respective thread.
Advertise my work to your friends.
Rate my thread with 5 stars.
Every way of support is highly appreciated, but it's not expected!
2. Sharing policy
This forum is about sharing. If you want to use any part of my work, please feel free to do it but remember about some simple rules:
Inform me about using my work by sending me a message. You don’t need my permission, just inform me.
Include link to my thread from where you took particular files.
Give proper credits for what you used.
When it comes to using my ROM as a base you are free to do it only if I don't have "Stock ROMs" thread available for particular device. If such thread exists, you are
obligated to take ROMs from there instead. These threads with "Stock ROMs" are usually updated within 24 hours from the moment when I release my custom ROM.
Sharing is one thing, but please respect some areas of my work like:
ROM name - "Android Revolution HD", "Android Revolution", "Revo HD", "AR HD" etc.
Graphics used in my threads, especially head-banners designed exclusivity for me.
Other parts of my work that are not supposed to be used by others without proper permission.
Please let me keep my threads design unique. I’m sure you can do something even better yourself!
3. Support
If you have any issues or questions, please feel free to post them in the respective thread. Due to my commitments in real life I can't answer every PM, tweet or facebook post.
If you want to get the fastest and the best answer - ask the question in the thread. Every month I need to remove about 1.000 new messages from my XDA inbox. I’m sure it’s better if I spend this time cooking new ROMs.
4. Signature banners for users
Due to the increasing number of users flashing my ROMs we introduced some time ago 3 special groups of members.
Android Revolution HD Recognized User – every user might get this rank with proper banner by being active in my thread (or threads).
Helping users to solve problems, answering questions or preparing threads with add-ons for Android Revolution HD are the most common ways to gain this rank. Just be active and we’ll contact you!
Android Revolution HD Advanced User – every user might get this rank with proper banner by doing some amazing modification, application, theme etc. for Android Revolution HD.
Creating simple bootanimation might not be enough, but you never know! Having Recognized User status before is not needed!
Android Revolution HD Supporter – every user who shared some server space with us (with proper bandwidth) will get this banner. Please keep in mind we can't use DropBox shared folders.
What we can use is minimum 20 GB of space and 10 Mbit upload speed. If you want to donate some server space to us, please contact me via private message.
Apart of those special banners, every user might use one of our amazing user banners collected in this thread.
Finally, thanks for using my work! I hope you will enjoy Android Revolution HD!
Mods, Add-Ons and additional Links for ARHD on Sensation
I have taken over this Mods thread originally created by Jotha and then maintained by Kohr-Ah for us ARHD users.
While I try to keep track of mods home and work come first. So, If you have made something interesting for all users, inform me via PM with a link to the post, not on thread.
If you find a dead link or if you think you should be credited for something published here, please inform me via PM, not on thread.
I try to include only mods and animations that either the ARHD-Team or I tested or for which there are positive reviews on XDA.
Mods that are tested by the Team or me are marked with an asterisk *.
Sometimes however I may link to an untested or beta-version. I'll mark such a mod however.
Mods that are installed by flashing in recovery are marked with a F.
For all other links the installation method is described in the linked post.
Flashing some mods may partially or completely erase other mods that you have already flashed. This is because they may include the same files with different modifications and overwrite each other.
In some cases you can avoid that by flashing in a different order, sometimes you cannot avoid it and you only can have one of them.
Most mods cannot be deinstalled without reflashing ROM. So always make a nandroid-backup before flashing unknown mods. In case of emergency you can revert to the state before.
As there is more than one ROM on this thread, the mods and Add-Ons are ordered corresponding to the ROM they are made for.
Do NOT flash a mod that is not made for your ROM version. It will not work or may even render your phone unstartable.

Performance Tweaks for Android Revolution
Android Revolution HD EXT4 Tweaks v.0.1 * F - This mod will turn ON data_writeback for all 3 partitions - system, data and cache. This will drastically improve I/O performance (mostly on write operations) at the expense of file system integrity in certain situations, like unexpected system shutdown. The risk is not extreme, but still bigger then regular. Use this to improve your system performance, but you flash it at your own risk!
Android Revolution HD GPU Rendering v.0.1 * F - Force GPU rendering on 2D operations. This mod is working similar to "Render GUI with GPU" option in Development Settings. Flashing this will force whole system to use GPU rendering (instead of CPU) for all kind of 2D/3D operations. This might improve 2D operations performance, but keep in mind that some apps are not working correctly with GPU rendering. After using this mod you no longer need to tick "Render GUI with GPU" in settings. Even if un-ticked it will be still working. Flash it at your own risk!

Q 2: My Premium Navigation doesn't work correctly. What should I do?
A: Your Premium Navigation may not work correctly for many reasons. Most of them are not ROM related. You can try the following things:
- reinstall your Locations under "Settings" ---> "Locations"
- remove /sdcard/.data/navigator/Data/Temporary from your SD card
- re-download Google Maps from the Android Market
- clear data from Google Maps in system software management
Q 3: When recording HD video, the playback of the clip keeps freezing. How to fix it?
A: This is probably SD card problem. Format your SD card (FAT32 recommended) to gain silky smooth playback.

A: Go to Ringtones > Menu > More Ringtones > Create new ringtone > Select the one you want (Thanks to kill4l)

Q 6: After flashing Android Revolution HD my SD card is being mounted as ready only. What should I do?
A: Connect your SD card to your PC and do defragmentation process. If you still have some problems with SD card, please read this.
Mac users can use the repair function of the MacOS disk utility to solve the read only problem (Thanks to Calimero1205).
Q 7: My CPU load is all the time nearly 100% and in most part it's used by system. What is the reason of that high CPU usage and how can I fix it?
A: Delete your htcsense.com account. It takes A LOT of your battery and CPU usage.

Q 8: Do I need to wipe data partition when upgrading from old version of Android Revolution HD?
A: I always recommend wiping data partition but it's absolutely necessary only if I mention that in the changelog. But normally you can live without it.
Wipe data partition if you experience any issues.
Q 9: I have some strange issues with my ROM that nobody reported before. What should I do in first place?
A: In first place you should check, if the MD5 Checksum is correct. Then flash ROM again and see if the issue is gone. A lot of strange issues can be solved this way.

Q 10: I had SetCPU installed on Android Revolution HD, then I flashed new version of AR HD and SetCPU doesn't work any more. How to fix it?

Q 12: My phone got random freezes or reboots. How can I fix it?
A: Every CPU is different. It seems that your CPU doesn't like OC or UV (undervolt). Set your CPU to default 1GHz.
If it doesn't help, then you need to flash default kernel from the second post.
Q 13: When I listen to music from HTC stock player it accidentally pauses for short time and then keep playing.
A: Turn OFF fastboot in settings.

Q 16: My Quadrant score is not as high as on different ROM. What does it mean?
A: It means absolutely nothing. Benchmarks on Android System are more or less lottery and they are not showing the real system performance.
There are many settings that can force Quadrant to show more then 3000 points but it's faked performance, that actually can slow down your phone in some circumstances.
What I always emphasize is a real performance, the one you can feel under your fingers. Remember that I/O has some limit and surpassing it shows just a numbers without true ratio.
Also keep in mind that Quadrant has support for Android Gingerbread only in version 1.1.7 and higher.
Q 17: I have com.htc.bgc process force close few times a day. How can I fix it?
A: It's because you have removed HtcTwitter.apk (HTC Twitter application). Please restore it.

Q 18: My screen-lock sound and keypad sound while dialing numbers is very low. How can I fix it?
A: Download "Quick Settings" application from Android Market and check system volume slider.
Q 19: When I open up the call screen (where I see the recent calls and callers), the calls won't appear in the list. What to do?
A: Probably you are using 3rd party launcher. Remove the dialer shortcut and re-add it.

Q 20: My Wi-Fi doesn't reconnect automatically after boot. How to fix it?
A: Disable fastboot in settings or check this solution.
Q 21: Why my "4G" icon is gone from the status bar?
A: My ROMs are based on WWE HTC ROMs. It means that there is no "4G" icon but you have HSPA+ connection with "H" icon anyway.

1. HTC phones (up until the announcement) came with "S-ON" (Security ON), which prevents anything being written to the NAND I think (i.e no custom roms or nand backup/restores). As the bootloaders eventually become cracked, people have made the phones S-OFF (Security OFF) which means the NAND can be written to and custom roms installed The sensation was released S-ON but HTC have have announced that new phones will be S-OFF - I was asking if anyone had heard if the current phones had been made S-OFF.
2. No one's really sure, we all hope it will be unlocked via an update or something, but it's really up to HTC as to how and when they do it, so I guess for the moment it's just hold tight..
And nope, you're certainly not being dim! It's all very confusing and I'm only just beginning to understand it
Thanks a lot. Now it makes a bit more sense. Gotta love XDA.

Man, give them time to sort it out
It's not been released in most places, so if we get an OTA to unlock, the ROM it comes in has to be Vodafone approved (for those who currently have the device) so we need to wait for that! I bet HTC are working their ass off now to organise an OTA and sort the unlocked bootloader into an update, as well as sorting any other phones they are going to be unlocking! Big task ahead!

I'm with you pal ) I got mine from vodaphone this week, safe in the knowledge that the universe would conspire to get HTC to unlock it. But it will take some time to filter through to those of us who couldn't wait.
So far though I'm finding it better than my previous HD2 with android - faster, smoother, nicer screen, better data connection. I'm sure I can live with voda/htc bloat for a while since I do have dual processors and a bunch of RAM
Can't wait to see what this phone can do once it gets a custom ROM on it though.

It's not been released in most places, so if we get an OTA to unlock, the ROM it comes in has to be Vodafone approved (for those who currently have the device) so we need to wait for that! I bet HTC are working their ass off now to organise an OTA and sort the unlocked bootloader into an update, as well as sorting any other phones they are going to be unlocking! Big task ahead!

Haha it's not that I'm being impatient (I don't even have this phone so a release date doesn't really affect me) but because the rom was released I was asking if they had already unlocked it (i.e so soon after the announcement)
We already have ROMs for a phone that's not even released in most countries except UK! That's the definition of cool! BTW, how did the developer unlock his phone to test his rom, XTC Clip or something? Well, I hope that the unbranded phones that are shipping on the rest of the world on June will be unlocked by default. And I'm really interested on how Vodafone will be ok to provide an OTA that will unlock the bootloader of their customer's phones and make them able to remove the bloatware?
As the sensation hasn't been unlocked yet I'm not sure it has been tested, but if it's a stock rom with just a few tweaks there's no reason it should work. But please correct me if I'm wrong!

The stuff that has been added to the ROM has been in mike's DHD ROMs for a while
It's stock with tweaks, so it should be pretty good to go right off the bat. Once the device is unlocked, then we can really test
Message to Mike
Are you switching from DHD to Sensation? Is this the reason why there are no more DHD developing? Anyway... I'm switchng too.
omg have to go working in the summer holidays to get this baby
Yes! Sensation Revolution!
Just sold my Desire HD and bought a HTC Sensation, and what do I see when opening up the forum?
Right!
Great to see the AR crew is already working on a Sensation Rom!
Can't wait to flash it.
Tanx a lot.

Awesome!! This is it; I'm gonna buy HTC Sensation!

if you look over here its a port of my rom over from the g2 with a few addtions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991254
Hmm, I downloaded it and, formatted cache, dalvik cache, and wiped. However I think I may have one of the G2x's that aren't as mod friendly.

why what did it do?
It turns on and the LG logo appears once, then shortly after just goes blank..and then the phone heats up.
This is somehow the continuation of giant_rider's GBRider_Cronos. It's a port of the HTC Hero ROM Cronos Ginger X from Cronos Project Team.
Credits:
- Feeyo and Cronos Team for the ROM development. You can find his work and donate if you feel like it in this forum. I think you should. ;
- carz12 for Kernel 2.6.34.4;
- giant_rider for the work he has done so far and for the ROM that i used as a base in order to see what i needed to change to make the ROM work;
- dsixda for his script used during all the porting process.
You'll need Radio 6.35.16.19 or 6.35.10.18 and SPL 1.76.2007 to properly run this ROM.
Latest Radio, SPL and Recoveries:
Radio - 6.35.16.19
SPL - 1.76.2007
Recovery - recovery-RA-magic+-v2.0.0.1-seo or recovery-RA-magic+-v2.2.1 or carz-clockworkmod-4.0.0.2-recovery
To change Radio/SPL/Recovery use the procedure described in this thread
How to Install the ROM:
- Fully charge your battery to properly calibrate it;
- Boot to recovery and do these steps:
Do a Nandroid Backup
Wipe all except battery stats
Flash the ROM
Reboot to system
- Reboot to recovery and Flash Gapps:
Gapps Light (It has only market and some other essential apps. After you enter the system you can choose which apps you want to install)
or
Gapps Full (It has all Google Apps) (It's indicated to those that don't have a WiFi connecting and no Data Plan)
- Reboot to system
The Kernel is OverClocked to 710Mhz. The CPU is set to max 614Mhz by default and min 352Mhz. If you change the minimum frequency to a value below 352Mhz, the phone will have unlock delay or even DIS (Death In Sleap). You can change the CPU setting in "Settings » CPU Settings".
Bugs:
- Airplane mode drains all the battery (kernel related)
- Sometimes buttons backlight stops working (Hero ROM related)
Updates notes in the 2nd post.
I choose not to follow the version numeration that giant was using because i might release some updates between feeyo's releases. But despite this, i'll always indicate the update used as a base to each release.
Notes:
I'm not a programmer and i have very little knowledge in this area. All i know is based on tutorials, Google searches and from the work done in other ROM's. I'm very curious and this ROM is somehow a result of that. So if you find any bug that is not related to Hero's ROM just tell me and i will see what i can do about it.
I'm not responsible to any damage that you might do to your phone. To avoid some undesired results always backup. It doesn't take much time.

hi,
I stayed with cm 7.1 for months now, and I miss the wiping and flashing
So, I'll try your ROM today.
One suggestion for both this topic and androidpt:
More information about the bugs that you rom still have,
Some Benchmark results just to have some clue about the speed of this Rom.
Good Work, and i hope you continue the support.

Thanks.
The only bugs that i'm aware of are buttons backlight that randomly work/doesn't work, power widget, airplane mode drain (kernel related). And there's nothing i can do about it. I will add a list if you guys really want it. About the benchmarks i will not add any because they are most of the times inaccurate and some ROM's have some tricks that can boost the result in the benchmark test but the actual performance of the ROM is the same as in other ROM's. The best test you can do is flash all the ROM's and see for your self.

I don't have any problem with this ROM. I usually had some random reboot with CM7, but with this one i didn't have any so far. And i've been using the phone like mad lately. Btw, i don't use Opera Mini. In what circumstances the phone crashes?
ex. if i will go to widgets - restart, if i have several apps opened - restart to bootanimation. I have this problem on My Kasier with 128 ram
Newest CM 7.1 android 2.3.5 is faster, more stable and have mord options, ex. default app storage

[Q&A]
This section hopefully addresses some common questions. Read this before posting any questions.
Before asking anything, clear cache and dalvik cache and see if it fixes the problem.
Browser unable to load anything despite 3G working? See here.
Q: Where is 3D gallery/video/gaming? How can I get it?
A: Never, until LG open-sources their proprietary Real3D framework. Now stop asking. Please?
Q: I don't want CM! I still want 3D!
A: Look elsewhere. There are great stock roms by ThiaiZ and The Dark Lestat as well as Meemo23 on this forum
Q: Must I wipe data? I have a lot of apps and data!
A: From experience, you must wipe when you install this rom for the first time. Afterwards, you can just wipe cache and dalvik cache and install the apps again. DO NOT restore Titanium backups since it will virtually leave your phone in the state it was before factory resetting.
Q: When I boot my phone, LauncherPro doesn't start/hangs/shows a black screen!
A: It is a well known problem with LauncherPro. Just press and hold the back button until a popup appears, then select "force close".
Q: I want to overclock Can I flash TitanKernel?
A: Flashing a stock kernel on CM will result in bootloops. Although overclocking is not needed for this rom since it's so fast and smooth already, you can use the overclockable modules here to overclock, and read the instructions there. Make sure you download the CM compatible modules and not the other modules.
Q: Do I need a task killer?
A: No! Task killers are not needed on a rom like this In fact, they can cause more problems than they solve...
Q: Where do I change the themes?
A: After installing the rom, go to the apps list and scroll down until you find Theme Chooser. From there, you can choose the corresponding theme you want. If it says that it is missing files, ignore it and apply the files anyway. Try Lucid and Vivid, they are exclusive to this rom only as they are paid themes on Play Store. However, Sonny (the developer of the themes) kindly allowed me to use his themes for free. Support Sonny by purchasing his themes here and here for your other phones Also, his ICS theme is included for you to mock those without ICS or its lookalikes
Q: Where do I get the LauncherPro themes for the themes?
A: The ICS and Lucid themes are already in the rom. There is no LauncherPro theme for Vivid if I'm not mistaken.
Q: How do I make my LauncherPro dock look like it came from ICS?
Download this and this. Extract the zip file to a folder your phone's sdcard. To set icons, long tap on the individual icons in the dock, select change icon, custom icon then browse to the correct icon. For the dock, tap the settings button in homescreen > preference > appearance settings > dock background > custom > [folder of icons] hhhha.png. If the icons do not appear, reboot your phone and it will appear. Done!
Q: Why is [app] not working?
A: Ask the developers of [app]. Only ask if it's root-related or is affected by busybox or something related to what I added in the rom.
Q: Can you include RTL support?
A: Try CM first. I have no idea if RTL is included as there are 3 Arabic languages in Languages so you tell me if it's included
Q: Why is xxx feature not working?
A: Don't ask me because I'm not the developer of CyanogenMod You can report functionality issues here. Examples of what should be reported to the CyanogenMod team would be call echoes, although they will not accept any reports of problems when you use this rom as they only want reports from stock CyanogenMod users. Only ask here if it's related to the tweaks I made.

Hi, I can try that over the weekend. However, the reason I based this on CM is because LG stock roms lag too badly Nonetheless, I will give it a try and see if there's a noticeable performance hit. If it isn't too bad, I'll put that up instead to get the best of both worlds
How is the battery behaving? Thanks.
wifi work only 5 min
Nice to see more people getting involved in the O3D world i will try your rom soon...

On idle it drains pretty slowly, about 3% overnight. It lasts one and a half days or so
for me, ymmv depending on your usage.

Not a problem over here. I had it connected for 2 hours while finalising this rom.

any screenshots available?
Can you clarify which version of CM 7.2 you are using?
It sounds fickle but there's stable, release candidate, nightly etc. along with different but similar devices p920, p970, etc.
In p920 directory alone, today there is:
update-cm-7-20120410-NIGHTLY-p920-signed.zip
update-cm-7-20120403-NIGHTLY-p920-signed.zip
update-cm-7-20120402-NIGHTLY-p920-signed.zip
update-cm-7.2.0-RC1-p920-signed.zip
cm_p920_full-49.zip
cm_p920_full-48.zip
It makes a big difference if we are to then debug found issues, particularly with the famous ghost call/radio baseband issues. It is rumoured that the very latest CM7.2 for p920 fixes these.
Cheers

Ps. It may be handy too if you could also create a kitchen ROM version, so people can flash over the latest nightly CM7.2 ontop of your existing patch (or vice-versa)

Try reading the main post. Near the top.
As for the second part, for future updates there's no need to wipe data, just clearing cache and dalvik cache will do. You only need to wipe data for the first install.

Will do that once I get hold of my computer. Most tweaks are not visible since they are performance tweaks, but will post some screenies up anyway.

Well maybe it is
Sure it isn't 3% (sorry ) but the drain isn't very bad.
If your already rooted do you still need the preperation kit?

The kit largely automates rooting, baseband flashing and CWM flashing. If you don't need any of it you can skip the preparation kit and install the rom straightaway.

been dying to use cm7 but lack of 3d is a no go for me !!
