[Q] Is there any hope for a ROM?

I mean now since the sd card slot is working can someone tell me if anyone has been working on a rom?

Not gonna happen until Google releases the HC source code. There are lots of other threads so if you search you might find more details!

The problem is not so much the working sd card (this will help for Clockwork Recovery), but for the rom the HC source is required and that hasn't been released yet.

Once Clock Work is working, will we be able to install Froyo ROMs?

Umm, I guess you could create a Froyo ROM but the question is why would you want to?

CWM is now working on both models. You can find it in the development section.

Cool now all we have to do is wait for the hc release for some roms.

I can't imagine wanted to downgrade to Froyo from honeycomb. Everytime I start to get disappointed there is no custom ROM I can't think of why I would want one yet. The Xoom is fast, responsive, and other than the SD card, works great. Built-in host mode support would also be nice.

That is what I mean by wait on the source code of honey comb to be released then they can make roms based off it.

What are you looking for in a ROM? I've only had an android phone for a few days (thunderbolt) but most of the ROMs I see don't really apply to the XOOM. The features seem to be things like:
-debloating
-removing or updating UI layers like sense
-porting stuff from other phones
-custom kernels (already avail. on xoom)
There are certainly some things that can be done without HC source

A custom ROM would be nice that included all the following without having to jump through a bunch of hoops:
Rooted
SD Card Support
USB Host Mode

Something similar to Bugless Beast or Cyanogen. The things you mention are usually part of or included in ROM's.

I was thinking the same thing.
OP You should start with aosp source and fix that if you want as pure as google android as you can get.
By the way you your picture you have up there is not stock launcher it's adw launcher. And the rotary lock screen is not stock either. Sorry.

I have the stock launcher installed in this version that screenshot is old. The Google lockscreen is included but not set as default ( trying to learn how to do this). I have remove Most of the CM stuff except for somethings i need to learn ( edit settings.apk to remove The CM settings ( which will not open when clicked on). All the apps on this rom come from a aosp rom for the DroidX( except for Terminal, Rom Manager, and File Explorer (which is very useful). All traces that i can remove so far have been removed.

haha dicks, just rippin him apart and the rom hasnt even been out for a day LOL

I applaud the effort. Congrats on your first rom and look forward to see the improvement. As far as removing apps, one thing I do is find it in Titanium then see what the file is named, then you can remove it out of the app folder.

Like stated above, you should work with a pure aosp base and you won't have to worry about any of that CM7 stuff. In my opinion, I think aosp is about as smooth as it gets when it comes to UI. I'm sure people would love to have a pure aosp ROM around here since there aren't any yet that I'm aware of.
Good luck with everything and if you need any help just ask.

I'll give a shot. I love loading new roms. Thanks and good luck.

The problem is that I remove CMparts.apk and cyanogenMod settings is still in my settings menu (like a ghost menu ( it won't open). I need someway to edit setting.apk to remove this from the settings menu but im not skilled enough to do this any help would be apreciated.
Also The RenderFX widget is unable to be found (If someone has a location or what file it is in please tell me)

tell me how it is please!!!!!

OP There is a lot more to removing cm then you are thinking. Cm is not just the addition off apps but also modification of all what is android. If you want aosp start with aosp

Ok I tried it and honestly it looks just like cm7. I don't know about creating roms but it seems that this is cm7 renamed and the boot screen changed. I would seek advice on properly creating roms and start over. Good luck.

If I were to create this from a aosp rom I first need to get my hand on one. I need to get drivers (I have no Idea on how to do drivers). And what kernel would I use. also what drivers would i need and don't need (screen, mix, speaker, touchscreen, bluetooth,wifi?)
Also would you want to make this rom with me?

You might want to check with @DOAlaboratories. He was working on an AOSP ROM, but hasn't updated his thread in a while.

Building from source ie. google. You can google ginger bread aosp and it will bring up this or from Git. You are going to have to build a kernel from source as well. You take the drivers that inspire already has. Its alot of trial and error to see what works and what doesn't.

Is there anywhere that has all the information necessary to build a rom compiled into one handy area?

Google is your friend if you want to learn how to compile asop. You can check out the android source site http://source.android.com/ or the developer sitehttp://developer.android.com/
Sent from my Incredible using Tapatalk

I have found a outdated 2.3.1 Asop rom for Desire HD (camera not working and USB mass storage not working ). Also If any one has any idea of how to copy CM7's drivers for USB and CAMERA I would love to hear from you!!!
Also How can I update this rom to 2.3.3 without having to recompile from ANDROID-SDK

I'm gonna take a crack at building from AOSP tonight. Gonna use the kernel and proprietary files from CM7. If it doesn't boot though, I don't have the patience to start looking into the kernel and framework to fix it. Wish me luck!

[Q] Stock calendar apk

Hello all. I appreciate all of the custom roms out there. I agree withe the fact that the touchwiz ui uses garish colors, but the additions actually tend to improve on android's functionality, unlike other skins lime motoblur. Does anyone have a copy of the stock calendar apk. It seems that gummy rom got rid of it and all the roms based on gummy don't have it. I would really appreciate it.

I would like it as well. Would some one be kind enough to post it and tell how to install it?

I like the stock calendar as well.

I have tried deleting the original apk's via root explorer and putting these in there place with no luck

I wish I had a way to install this. I really prefer it.

oops, I thought the op was asking for the aosp version

They won't work at all. Droid's bootloader is unlocked, Milestone's isn't. Flashing this would be a big problem for your Milestone.

Thks for the heads up on it.

running this as of yesterday. super fast, running chevyno1 lowv 1.1 kernel. only thing i miss from CM is the CM parts. gonna push it to my /system/app folder and set things up that way.

Honestly, I've tried overclocking this, and its still terribly slow. That's why I'm sticking to CM7 800mhz oc

[Q] Using system app from stock on AOSP?

Hi, cause I didn't want to wait for an official JB update, I recently installed "SuperXE" AOSP Rom, JB 4.2.1. It's very nice, but i really need an app that can handle office document formats, especially those of MSO. As my phone originally came with "Polaris Office", I'd like to continue using this app -- is this possible?
Just putting the apk from stock HTC ICS in /system/app doesn't do anything. It's possible to install it normally, but then it crashes when I try to launch it. Didn't have the time to check logcat for that so far, but maybe someone can tell me if this ist just impossible to do OR what I'm missing, thanks!

probably it is compatible for sense based roms if i am not wrong

Didn't expect it to require Sense, because it's a "standard" app also available for other phones. But never mind that, just read somewhere else that it isn't compatible with JB at all.
The originally included game "Teeter" won't work on JB AOSP either, but as I don't find this version in the store, I guess missing Sense could be the problem in THIS case, right? It won't even install normally (e.g. clicking on the APK in file explorer). It's a game, so, not important at all -- but it was nice
