I am no longer supporting this thread. I have moved to making a romer tool. This tool converts gingerblur based d2 roms for d2g use. My romer tool will work on the newest liberty version, and gsm is functional. I will also make a romer tool for aosp based 2nd init roms. To learn more check out the link below

Here it is Liberty 3 for the droid 2 global. Same rules and instructions from above apply to this one.
Enjoy

These links may be coming down soon. I have finished my d2g gb romer. It will be posted in the development section, and if you flash it on this rom I have here it will fix gsm. Happy roming
I would love the liberty gb for droid 2 global! Only like one or two gb roms out there for global atm :/
Allright, I will find a way to get it on here most likely Tuesday,and like I said, I will work on any other d2 or dx rom to work on d2g
I too would love the Liberty ROM for the D2G
oh cool i just bought the d2g and scared roms where not more. Happy there is still roms for it.
Wow yes nice thanks I will get back as soon as possible.
Just wondering why is this not posted in the Development section. Won't it get more attention that way.

Hey are you going to port liberty 3?
Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk
You bet, I will bring the most current version of the regular liberty rom when I next post
Also, I live in america and only use cdma. I have tried to fix gsm several times, and have gotten it working, but a really annoying roaming sign blinks continuously. I have no reason to fix it unless anyone who is downloading it here wants it. I will work on it in that case.
Lol it's fine with me if there is only cdma after I'm from So Cal

Sorry, can't post links...
Also please spread the word, and post this link and the one above on other sites
P.S. 2 new updates are coming soon. GSM is fixed
If someone doesn't first, then I will probably be introducing a droid 2 global romer within the next week for gingerbread

It looks nice, but how do I switch it to GSM?
GSM was not working in that version of my port. You could have read that in an earlier description. I do, however, have a fix for that. Check out my new forum in the development section. I have created a romer that will fix your gsm problems. Simply flash it and you should be good to go

one problem so far
everything works except for one thing;
the hot seat doesnt recognze the dialer app as being installed when i try to move it to a diff hotseat. couple other apps have been returning "app not installed" messages as well. i will point out that the other apps were restore from my google accounts backup service, could this be the problem? but the dialer problem is a definite issue.
other than that everything looks and runs great, im anxious to see your next release of liberty for the d2g
D2G OTA GB .608 liberty 3
---------- Post added at 07:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 PM ----------
btw wheni put the dialer app in a diff hotseat the icon is the contact icon, not dialer (but it still says not installed)
on a side note, can you add the brightness control from the power control widget to the top slide down menu thingy? i like all the other options, but having the brightness control would save me (and many others im sure) the hassle of adding the power control widget to a home screen. just sayin
thx again!
The apps not working and brightness control is not my problem. I did not make this rom, I only ported it
I like Liberty ROM, but it seems have some CAM & USB problem now.

Hello,
I'm just curious what people are running because I'm currently using fission 2.4.3 and I'm looking for something else. So what are you running on your D2G?
That's all there is on the d2g right now, that and stock. I personally wouldn't go back to stock even if they paid me.
Sent from my WICKED FAST Droid 2 Global with fission using XDA app
Not a lot of options for us yet, so Fission here as well.
Fortunately Fission is not only far better than stock it also seems pretty good, period.
Before I put Fission on mine I was slightly regretting getting the new one: my Droid is better than the stock D2G- and 50Mhz faster too.
With Fission- yeah, the hardware junkie part of me may not be able to do too much yet, but the phone IS smoother and faster than the heavily modified Droid- and has global capability.
We will get more roms to choose from before long, I'm sure.

Its not that its really missing anything. I used the blackout theme and really enjoyed the rom. But I was having battery /heat issues I'm not really sure why but it seems like it is not a common problem.
Last night I went back to the stock rom because of it.

Before my D2G I had (still have) my Droid 1. It was running Chevy01 Simply Stunning ROM. One cool feature of his rom was music controls with the screen off.
With screen off
Camera Button was Pause/Play
Volume up and down is stock but long press of volume up is next track and long press of volume down is previous track

I am running stock, yes I know - boring.
But I love that dialer which has both portrait and landscape modes and lookup mode, damn it is good (one thing well done Motorola!) I wish we could port it out as independent app. Another thing I like in stock rom is the car doc/desk dock apps. Launcher isn't that bad either.
Help! I tried Liberty and it got stuck in airplane mode.
I reinstalled the original ROM but parts of Liberty still seem to be in the system as when I boot I get the Liberty logo before it moves on to the stock ROM logo.
Someone please tell me where I can get a good stock ROM and how to USB push it to my phone. Liberty must be mucking up my phone as dialer won't stay open.
Anyone... Please...

This is a SCRIPT for METRO PCS users ONLY!
This will fix MMS on any 4.67 OTA base rom. You must already be on metro pcs for this to work ie; metroflash, Houdini ect. If you are not already i believe you are too late as metro is stopping this service. For those of you that have already had your esn added to the database you are good to go.
This scipt is built off of 4.67.651.3 (Gingerbread 2.3.5) framework and will work on pretty much any 4.67 base rom. Been confirmed working on SOS n and of course Stock rooted(please inform of others you can confirm working on). This script edits the apns.xml inside the framework-res.apk and changes mms.apk. It also deletes the sprint apns that are located in data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/telephony db
and replaces those with the appropriate settings for metro.
I Give Full Credit to OAKIEVILLE for this! Since he is the one that started this for the evo 3d and let me use his idea/work to make this work for you guys. So if you see him around make sure to hit the thanks button for him.
thanks to Atljatl for testing for me
thanks to Mikekelso420for testing(kinda) slacker lol jk you were the ginea pig
thanks to bloodykiller for the killer guide to give us all data in the first place
Thanks to JD2589 for his 3g guide even though metro sucks in Detroit and i never get it.
I am NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY ILL AFFECTS THAT COME FROM THIS SCRIPT if you have any you must of done somthing wrong.
REMEMBER 4.67 using 4.67 framework on a 4.54 rom and so on is definately gonna give you issues.
Boot 4.67 rom of your choice one time setup do whatever then reboot into Recovery and wipe cache and dalvic and flash script. You can even wipe again after if u want it wont hurt anything. MMS will work from first boot. Wifi off. Sorry but thats a gingerbread thing i cant change once u have sense ICS that may change. Scripts for more versions soon. PLEASE leave feedback so i can address any issues. ENJOY!!

Hey mteezey,
Nice job man, I will be flashing this as soon as Swagstr releases his next update.
JD
Switched to a sense Rom (SOS n) for the first time in a couple months cuz of this. Thanks!
...and any word on ics script?
Edit: I just saw bloodys op update where he added an ics script. It looks like its not quite ready though...and it looks like kelso has been running ics roms instead of testing for you!
Lol I know. I hope you guys get a sense 3.6 or 4.0 port soon or even an ota update of ics soon. Aosp are a lot easier to get working. Just push the apn conf xml you use for apn backup and restore and push it to system customize folder it will overwrite existing one. Set permissions to rw-r--r-- then navigate to.com.android.providers.telephony telephony db and delete telephony db. Then reboot and profit.

i read you said this will work with 4.67 etc. mines is software number (if thats what the rom is i guess ) 4.54.651.1 and says android version i guess thats where i says gingerbread on your post , mine says 2.3.3. so ummmm can i use this script ?
i just had my htc 4g added about a month back and i just called 611 supervisors supervisors supervisor and confirmed they will continue flashing any houdini at corporate stores as of 5-20-12 so i suppose it was just a rumor,and thank alot for this script stuff i will try and figure it out
is their anyway to preview this script effect , like screen shot or whatever ;D
oh i just read where you said using this on 4.54 will have issues , so i suppose i am not able to see the bambess of your thingy you worked hard on for the metropohlis community
Search bloodykilla's metrodroid v4 thread. In his op, there is a download link for the 4.54 script (for sense roms) Flash it in recovery and you'll be straight. Don't worry, it wont mess up your phone or anything. You may need to flash it more than once for it to stick. But don't sweat it. It works.

I wouldn't recommend flashing it on anything other than 4.67 unless you are a seasoned flasher. Just in the case it does cause bootloops or something. In my opinion just flash a 4.67 Rom and you will have better battery life and performance anyway. That's just me though. Good luck

This script is for the EVO 4g. But depending on the Rom you are running there are steps you can take to get mms going on the EVO 3d. I haven't messed with the sense 4.0 roms much but most of the sense 3.6 roms have an mms apk that you can change the connection settings on. Ics has been pretty easy for me on 3vo. On sense 4.0 an easy fix would be gosms. If your not familiar with modding phones much your best bet would be nocturnalXIS 3.6 ICS it has an option in aroma installer for metro same script that i use for this thread except its built off of the framework for that Rom. You could pull the metro stuff out of the zip and use it on other 3.6 roms but again that involves a little more know how. Good luck.

glad to see someones picking up the work. I see what you did, instead of making it like i did, which hasnt been working lately, you did what i wanted to do by just modifying the apn in the framework res. Its the best way honestly the only drawback is when people want to flash roms that have been heavily modified, it won't work unfortunately and the script that usually injects the apn into the telephony.db hasnt been working to well as of late either which kind of throws the universal script out the window. Its a pain in the ass really lol im thinking of a new way soon so imma upload it later and update all the scripts with it and then pretty much leave the rest to you. I have literally no time for it anymore with school and work and working out lately so yea lol Nice work though, keep it up
Yea I made that a while back should of just posted here. It's been getting tons of downloads but no one posting. But I guess that's a good thing. It should be easy enough for the people with themed roms to change some of the files out so they can keep they're theme.
Edit; just realized this was my thread. Thought we were in bloodies thread still. That's what I get for checking after working in 97 degree heat all day.

Yea tell me about it. You can never see how things are working if no one replies lol kinda sucks but if you apply it to newer phones im sure people will post more. I wish i could do what the flashtotalk program does. It would save everyone from rooting and anything. Its a custom mms app from aosp that has its own apn built in depending on the carrier. Unfortunately i haven't found it anywhere online and even if i did it has some sort of installation key so that kinda sucks. I gotta dive i to Android coding more to figure it out but thats gonna take a while

LewaOS is working pretty darn well. maybe even better than miui!
Might have to restart for data to work though.
Wipe was necessary for me to get it to boot up. I recommend it for you.

JoyOS is working, but extremely laggy in some parts. Launcher for ex.

That would be fine, this is my first port ever. Not like I did much but it's a start.
I didn't try to update the other one since it was too buggy, but it might be because of the base rom maybe?
I'll give it a try. I like the status bar with those icons better anyways. I just need to learn how to port that to the LeWas rom.
Edit: Where did you get the base rom for the JoyOS? All I get is a forum where I need to register.
Good ports
Joy Os:
I noticed it was very sluggish. The camera was experiencing weird issues too. It works but the camera button doesn't show. Instead there are black boxes and its hard to explain. It makes the camera unusable. Data also doesn't work. It boots and runs without crashes so that's a start! I'm just trying to test and report as much as possible to help you out. Nice port.
Lewa Os:
SPEEED. This rom is incredible. Performs better than MIUI 2.2.25 so far. I like this a lot. Data works fine, camera works good, looks pretty nice. Good port! I like it so far. Will report back if I experience any bugs.
I'm currently working on my port, I noticed that I couldnt update the quickpic alas gallery on the rom. Also I want to deodex it.
Anyone else running this version? You need the new basebad for it.

Edit: I got support for live-wallpaper, added the default from CM7.2 also. Added Gallery3D until I solve the quickpic bug. Uploading soon.
Edit2: Some apps just forceclose, I'm going to remove them and replace them for CM ones.

I think the answer is not. If you want, you could install it as I have the new baseband. But if memory serves me right, support for the old baseband is broken on CM7.2 RC3 and up.

actually, I was thinking you should make a new one or take over this one. I just wanted to introduce the roms to people on the g2x forum since I hadn't seen them there.
you definitely seem to be on it as far as updates and all. as for me, I don't have much time.... I ported those roms over about a week or two ago and just now found time to share.
also, I think there might be a new version of lewa
one problem for me btw: I cannot receive calls. phone rings but options to answer do not pop. up. I'm back on miui.... I really like the speed of lewa. though.....
Anyone want to try and get an MIUI v4 port with working data going? [; I'm sure a bunch of people will love you for that.

you definitely seem to be on it as far as updates and all. as for me, I don't have much time.... I ported those roms over about a week or two ago and just now found time to share.
also, I think there might be a new version of lewa
one problem for me btw: I cannot receive calls. phone rings but options to answer do not pop. up. I'm back on miui.... I really like the speed of lewa. though.....

Isnt that like Miui ICS? I'm not up to date with it.
Yeah its MIUI ics 4.0.3/4.0.4. It's called MIUI v4 for short though
I ported the ICS Sense ROM from the Desire Z section found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1546915 using the kernel and update script found in plattypus latest release, Its fully preview operational its nicely fast once it gets going takes like 5-7 minutes I would estimate to finish settling in after the flash. However, even though it appears fully operational by preview standards I can't make phone calls, send text messages, mount sd card, common data bugs. If anybody can make a modification here a modification there this ROM should come pretty close to fully operational. Screen orientation is proper keyboard lights up and is operational. Any how heres a download link to check it out if you'd like. I doubt I'm gonna do much more then this which is why I'm not opening a development thread on it, besides I don't have permission from the Desire Z dev (I didn't ask). http://d-h.st/2sf
PS: I'm not responsible for anything, so if you brick don't go blaming me lol although there should be no issues of that sort.
You're truly awesome. Lol looks like you didn't ask either O_O I'm not saying a thing
Edit: LMAO!!!!!!! I'm laughing so hard at the fact that you said uploaded by anonymous

Btw. This port is AMAZING!!! The only problems are basically SD card and Signal. I think your a bit ahead the platypus's rom.
You should put this in development

He should! Just remember to ask for permission -_- ...
ya wow! this is running smooth. just wish i could get some svc from it lol
I didn't post it in the development section because then I would be forced to fix it lol it appears to be a good base, if anybody wants to get their dev on with an idea on how to fix the remaining issues, they can post it in the development section after asking for approval of the dev in the desire z section (give props where they are deserved maybe?), since this is a Q&A section, my question is, can anybody fix the remaining issues? Honestly, I think all that's needed is modification to the build prop maybe a kernel mount issue like the 1 similar to 3.5 before drob311 fixed the mounting issue, a few bin/lib/etc file swaps, the camera issue that's apparent with many Sense ICS ROM's out there. modification maybe to the update script. Its a good step maybe it'll help plattypus? I don't know but I figured it was worthy in making accessible to the community, maybe it'll help with something?
Tell you what, Ask both developers for permission. Then ask The_Platypus for help with the data. If you can fix the data, This Rom would be better than his. I have seen some stuff on Google on how fix data and wifi. Maybe you could do some research on it. I hope this helps. I'm not going to give up hope because this is a pretty good port to be honest. I PM'ed you too btw
I think plattypus work is pretty awesome, I wouldn't have been able to do crap without the kernel he presented and writing update-scripts isn't my strong suit either. This release is just a marker I suppose, I messaged him before I posted this, its kind of a more advanced preview in theory if you drop the usr folder from this ROM into his port, orientation & keyboard potentially could be fixed in his as well. The usr folder in his preview version wasn't meant specifically for the shift, since the Desire Z is a similar qwerty device/board to the Shift, working orientation was already established in the Desire Z port version that was compatible with the shift, then all I did was port the shift specific drivers into the Desire Z port. Like I said I used his packaged kernel and update script and since the Desire Z port was already on beta 6, its potentially more advanced in modification then plattypus preview port. If nothing else my driver modifications potentially advances plattypus port, hopefully this aids his efforts.
I still say you and him should work together on this! I mean you fixed a big problem. I'll take your advice and ask lots of people things It's going to take me a while to work some things out too. Thanks for this port though!

I agree even if the OP is not planning on following up with updates any time you post a rom download link of any type of software it should be in development. Other people could work on it and post new versions then the OP can update the first post with links, credits ect.

ha but then I would be pressured 100% to complete the project, I don't want the responsibility. I was just trying to contribute something to making ICS Sense a reality on the Shift, do my part. Besides, plattypus made the initial leap at getting things started my suggestion would be to tune into his work. I'm not trying to kang his ROM, I'm trying to collaborate.

Latest version - JellyBelly Omega-Total Customization-CM10 (unofficial)[Updated 1/28/13]
No Flash or Flash is broken - tested using w w w .adobe.com/products/about-flash.html
Voice Search crashes out of the box. Had to do an update from the market to get it to work.
Wifi throughput is poor. Using the prior release, I could easily get 20mbit, now I can't get over 5mbit.
I read through the entire thread, and didn't see this...
Would like to request the modified contactsprovider.apk be included. I know I can do it myself, but would be nice if it worked out of the box.
There was one more thing, but it slipped my mind now. I reverted to MikShiftedG for usability. This thing is so close, it hurts!!
If I missed anything... kindly let me know. That was a very long thread to read over. I do appreciate the work that has been done so far!

It might help to install adobe flash if you want flash. I included it in v6 but left it out here because we stripped it down as much as possible. I did absolutely nothing that would effect WiFi from the previous version. If anything it should be faster. Did you flash the patch?

That is for cm10.1 (JB 4.2.1) this ROM is cm10 (JB 4.1.2)
Odd. I used that patched file and it works. . Did not get to the patch. Will try later tonight after darts league.
Thanks for the info. Was going off what I read in your OP. Didn't see that Flash got stripped out, or my memory buffers dumped that info.

Feeling like a dolt. While I was running the same speed test on my home computers, I forgot to set the speed test location. As soon as I set them both to the same location, I got over 20mbit again. Terribly sorry about that.

I'm 99% sure this is the file I used, and it worked on my device, and sync'd my contacts photos, phone, etc.

I didn't test it, just noticed it said cm10.1 at the top. Not saying it doesn't work, but it might not work for everybody... Those are the kind of things you gotta think about when putting together a ROM. You want to use the most stable stuff so you don't have to tell people how to fix this and that all day long. But glad you got most of it sorted out. I think we got all your problems covered. BTW Flash is not actually included in any JB ROM (without the dev putting it in there) because it was dropped in favor of HTML5 (Thank the iTurd). I put it in previous versions cuz I know a lot of people still use it... But it is a bit of a space hog. You should be getting close to your ten posts now tho.
Yes, you did. I'm foaming at the mouth at the idea of having this run full time. I really love it!
My work environment uses flash heavily, thus I still have continuing need for it. The installation of Flash shouldn't cause a general slowdown of the device though, just to make sure?
One last question then. Is there a recommended contactsprovider apk for CM 10, or more specifically one that will work with your build?
Sorry for being noobish. I understand the basics and some advanced stuff, but all the naming conventions and numbering schemes kinda messes me up.
Thanks for being responsive to my questions! As someone who hasn't a clue to what it takes to build one of these, I'm sure my suggestions and comments can seem naive. I don't mean them to be tho!

I would rather you learn than keep asking the same things over and over.
Here is something to help you out with the naming conventions:
Sense is the UI your phone shipped with. AOSP (Android Open Source Project) is what JellyBelly is. Most AOSP ROMs are based on one of a few different works. CyanogenMod (CM) is one of them. AOKP and Evervolv are a few others. AOSP is stripped of any of the phone manufacturers UIs (Touchwiz, Sense, MotoBlur, LG UI, etc). Basically what the Nexus phones are shipped with. Although the UIs can be added back in to an extent when making a ROM. For example I made a MotoBlur ICS ROM for the Shift from AOSP.
CM7=2.3 or GingerBread. CM9=4.0 or Ice Cream Sandwich. CM10=4.1 or Jelly Bean. CM10.1=4.2 which is the newest, most current version of Jelly Bean from the Nexus 4.
No flash shouldn't cause any slowdown, like I said I just removed it for space. And for the contactsprovider.apk, no i don't have a recommendation but if that other one works for you... Go with it! It's your ROM, set it up how you want... That was kinda the theme of Omega... To give the maximum amount of control and options to the user. hope all this helps.
Here's a link that I have referred to quite often: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CyanogenMod After your read about halfway through the article, under 'Version history', click 'expand' to see a very handy reference table. Using this, you can narrow down the flashable ROMs to certain Android/CM versions.
