How much is this gonna be? And it works with every app, or are there caveats? Cause I'll drop the cash if it works with everything.
Also, any luck getting this in CM5 stock or has he still not responded?

Its already released, you can check the response it had got, here on the free version thread post #423 onwards.
This will not be included in CM5 due to legal issues but the app patches CM5 itself assuming you are running recognised releases.

This App just pwns and the alphas were mostly working already really good.
(+ subscriped to the thread )
I don't see in anywhere in your creds, any thanks to the people who sent donations to further the development of this app. I know I did the first day you posted alpha....buying pro anyways.
I wish this could work without having too root!
I'm using Cy's test rom, but I went ahead and bought this in anticipation. :-D

i love this app!
Who do I post this Market feature request to: (?)
Request:
When uninstalling an app via market, there needs to be another reason for uninstall. New option: I've just ripped off the apk, so please uninstall and refund me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I really can't believe how many people do this just to save £1.99, currently just over 10% of sales are refunded. Wish I could name and shame them.

That's a real shame, it's not just people who are too stupid to read the description and buy it before realising it's cyanogenmod only?
If it's any consolation, I rushed to buy it the day it came out even though I can't use it yet (on 5.0.6 test2, and haven't had time to rewind)
but they wont get the updates- maybe you need to do an update every week or so and then have it so that when a new CM is loaded it checks the version of the app before patching the framework? or it checks version number before updating database?
Alright Im no longer AWOL and have an update for you!!
ok here is the updated echOS. im pushing 40 something hours of no sleep so I will give you a quick changelog now. Then tomorrow I will put out a more in depth one. Its not exactly where i want it to be but I figured I have been awol lately and need to put something out...because you know....Evo needs another rom =P (sarcasm) ok here it is -
Quick Changelog better one coming tomorrow:
Upgraded to 3.29
no longer based off of Bakedsnack. Now based off of stock OTA
All the aosp apps as before EXCEPT for contacts.apk It is still work in progress.
Able to reboot into recovery or bootloader now from the power menu
Boot Animation by mrono (thank you very much!)
Now uses AOSP Keyboard
Because its using the AOSP MMS.apk you will most likely get SMS notifications when you get a voicemail.
Things to that will be fix next update:
USB status bar icon is too big.
AOSP Contacts.apk
Percent in battery
GOGOGOG

Beta has been sent out to the testers!!!. Hopefully I can get it posted to the public in the next couple days. Thank you very much to the people testing the rom!
First off all credit to Herver for his great rom. All info on the original rom and Herver is below.
I uploaded 0.9.5 beta. not real happy with it. And it has some issues so its here if you want it but it might not be stable. wireless tethering is still giving me issues and the hulu app is just false hopes but im to tired to mess with it anymore tonight. Also there is no lockscreen now....ill get it fixed tomorrow....What I have changed though:
New AOSP browser now you can change User Agent
Fix AVI playback issue
Changed Power Control to match the Vanilla theme
Updated Kernel ***I forgot to change the default cpu scaling. so at first it might run sluggish untill you change the scaling to something other than conservative.
http://www.multiupload.com/BWZSZPOL7V
Updated to echOS .9!!!
I will update the change log in a little bit. Fixed issue with not being able to use widgets to toggle 4g. wireless tether might fc.
try installing this version of wireless tether
Update up and waiting for you to download!

Hervers Donation Link
Original Rom
Untill recently I didn't want to take any credit for this rom, and still Herver deserves the majority of credit. But I have put alot of time and nights without sleep trying to get this as close to AOSP while still being full functional. With that being said if you feel like we deserve a little love (donation) Herver deserves the majority of the donation. hero_over donation link above this paragraph. Mine is in the sig. Thank you! Hope you enjoy! If you have any issues PLEASE post and if you can leave a logcat of your issue I can get it resolved quickely. If you skim through the thread you will see I stay on top of it and I will try and take care of you ASAP.

Ok quick update. I have aosp dialer, contacts, email, music, mms all working now. I am going to flash it onto a couple of my friends phone to test it out. Hopefully it will be uploaded tonight.
PS. Thanks firemedic1343
Which version?
will this be the 1.5 backed snack or the 1.01, and do you plan on releasing updates to this as Herver updates?

I have it working on my phone but when I try to flash the rom it gives me some errors. BUT even with the errors it looks like it installs somewhat correctly. I will upload what I have as a beta if anyone REALLY wants to try it but it has its problems.
Uploading at the moment with AOSP Dialer, Contacts, Email, MMS, and Music. So far its been running very stable for me. A couple little things I need to fix but it doesnt effect performance at all.
Contacts and Email apks stolen from mrono import of manups nextang themed cm6
This sounds awesome! All the benefits of Baked Snack (which I used to run and loved) without the cruft of Sense (which is the reason I dropped it for CM6).... Downloading now. I'll let you know how it goes.
Does the Wiimote app work with this rom?
endless loops
This thing just loops through the android bootscreen endlessly. That's w/ wiping everything beforehand.
Anyone else having this problem?
Worked first time for me. I also wiped beforehand.
so does 4G, HDMI, FM Radio work on this.
I would like to see the phone app in full aosp. Because I'm using a Rom that is working beautifully but just see that when I receive a call it shows the stock phone app and the scroll down answer bar. I want the aosp mode. I don't like to auto decline people when taking my phone out of the pocket . Thanks

yea GOt two more project in line if no one Beats me to it but then again ill still release lol
giving this ROM a try, looks promising
it is great, i cant wait to see where else you take this rom
Checkin' in to the awesomeness.
Lovin' the venom.
Nice to get a slimmed down tricked out ROM to play with.
Much thanks man, really appreciative of the work you've put into this.
Edit to add:
Besides not having an internet browser, everything works and is in good shape. Not having a browser means Google Search doesn't search the 'net, but as soon as you install one it fixes it.
Definitely slimmed down...much, much nicer then stock. Sure beats the hell out of going through and deleting all that crap by hand.
Camera app works completely, just in case anyone was worried or was gonna go ahead and ask that question down the thread.
What Sinfamy said below about the T-Mobile name on the lockscreen is the only thing visually amiss, and the missing browser out-of-the box (which you aleady are handling) are the only two things I can see out of place.
Market works, and another browser can be gotten from there for the time being.
Stable, no problems flashing, runs great.
Makes for a great springboard to start from, and can't wait for the eventual kernel release and such to follow.
I found my ROM, lets me keep the stock camera app (which I like and have gotten used to), kills the Tmo/HTC bloat for the most part, and now i'll get much better update support then staying with the stock ROM.
Ck23, you did a good job with this and I don't really see the need to go play with any other ROMs now, this is basically what I want.
Staying tuned in for the Kernel, and the tweaks/updates that'll be following.
Gonna buy you some kool-aid, you earned it.
Looks great, can you align the carrier "T-Mobile" to the left or something so it doesn't overlap wit the notification bar?
Also you took out the official internet app can you put it back

If it's like EVERY OTHER ROM it's:
1. Download ROM
2. Reboot into Recovery
3. Perform Master Reset (wipe data/cache/system)
4. Wipe Dalvik cache under advanced
5. Choose install zip from sdcard
6. Find file and click ok
7. Let ROM installer script do its work
8. Reboot
9. Upon first boot it will take some time. Give it time for everything to get settled before you start using the phone too heavily.
Hopefully this helps. If CK wants to add anything to this, please do!
worked great thanks

Worked on my 3rd try. I restored my original backup and followed the instructions listed above. this ROM is great. you rule CK23!
Any pics of the notification bar? Does "Tmobile" and recent apps still take up prime real estate, or is it cleaned up and minimal?

I will post current issues here; as you can see, when an issue is fixed it will be striked out.
The point of this bug list is so ppl know what the bugs are before they repost it.
Known Issues (V1.4)
- Stock Browser FC
- MIUI Lock freezes when using home shortcut (other two work fine)
- Wifi is hit & miss Fixed
- BT is hit & miss Fixed

1. An "FC" means "Force Close" or when an app stops working and is closed by the OS.
2. It can be yes, it worked before, I just need to figure out what I did differently

Speaking of, I pulled another browser logcat today and saw a reference to vending app (Google Play) so it could be caused by the Jelly Bean market app..

You tried out Holo Locker from the market? It will be packaged with 1.5 & if I can merge it into my current framework, it will just be another option in settings :good:
& Yeah I know, it has been pretty heavily modified cuz the regular version is filled with gingerbread. Just freeze or uninstall it and update. (system/app/com.google.android.music-1.apk)
If I can find time, I'll have the updated version themed instead for 1.5.
Holo Locker seems to be at least 10x better than WidgetLocker in performance but if it was ONLY a little bit more configurable, it would be just sweet. Looking forward to the upcoming releases Mac.

I seem to get the Bluetooth bug more often after upgrading to 1.4, I don't mind it much( i just restart and it works again) but was wondering if you are planing a fix or it's a GB unfix-able thing(because it is persistent in every GB rom with custom toggles)

What Bluetooth bug???? I've been using Bluetooth to transfer files between my PC and no problem at all compared to the previous releases.
So here's the deal,
I always loved the look and feel of the sidekick 4G but I never bought one when it came out, a few months back I found an
amazing deal on a perfect condition one so I bought it right quick only to find we have very little development here.
Well Im hoping to change this as i have time, with school, work, getting married in two months, house projects,
and other development projects i have had no opportunity to sit down and really play with this phone to see if
I could even build something from source on it.
Yesterday i saw the last ROM maintainer RicAndroid (pay him respect) here almost quit due to lack of respect for all his hard work
and having little more to play with, I decided I cant let this happen. So last night I whipped together a quick Aroma Package
that can be used with any ROM here, it will flash as is now and install a select few things to your phone no matter the
ROM you are currently running.
If people desire i can make a very expansive package that could hold many modifications to your phone, but for now,
as i have little time, I hope the few developers here can take this package and apply it to the best and most slim base ROM
and make their own fun to flash fully customizable ROM.
I Will Continue Making Bigger and Better Packages Only If people Request That I Do
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So for now, I hope whatever devs, maintainers, cooks, whathaveyou, here will take this and make it their own
you do not need my permission, i do not require any credit in your ROM, i just hope those who still maintain ROMs here will continue
and those on the fence about learning how will take this opportunity as an easy start!
As Always, Happy Flashing!
Changelog and Download
*Please feel free to request anything specific you would like added to the next release, I wont not promise when, but it seems people will use this, so I'll make a few updates. But I would Like input on what YOU want
As always I encourage developers and the like to take this package and make it their own. Find a Rom, strip it naked, ad features to Aroma, and release to the public! Until someone moves this phone past froyo this will be the next best thing I hope! And I'm NOT promoting simple zip kanging here, be sure to ask the developer to use their ROM and give credit where do! (i dont need credit if you use these packages at all but the developers do!)

First release
Can you please describe what it does?
It just adds a bunch of APKs, including 2 launchers ADW/Zeam and then some theme stuff?
yeah of course, as of right now this is just proof of concept, I dont have the installer add much. so what you do is download, put on sd, boot to recovery, and flash it like a ROM
when you do, recovery disappears and Aroma pops up, here it will go through a bunch of options. right now this package has a couple launchers to pick from, a couple music players, and a few boot animations (probably not optimized for this phone)
it is possible to add most anything, such as in another phone i have it flashing different systemUI.apks that will modify the placement of the clock and the color, also making one that flashes splash screens (the one when you first boot phone, here its says sidekick or whatever) and this can be changed to any image.
really I dont think ill make a large package for this phone, unless a bunch of people request i do so. but my purpose is to have developers add it to their rom (a slimed to nothing rom) and have just about every app service whaterer be flashed as users choice. can also choose kernel, have it wipe phone for you, really anything that can be flashed in recovery can be flashed here
Noob explanation. Aroma installers are GUI for installing ROMs. The allow you to pick and choose what you want installed rather than forcing you to use the ROM as is then taking out what you don't want. All with a pretty user friendly interface. We have them for some things on the amaze

yes exactly, i often have long winded answers to simple questions
and for those that arent familiar dont think what i did above above is as good as it gets, really its just something i slapped together in 20mis taking parts from other aroma installers i made for other devices and changing things to work here.
and like i said i hope others will take this on and make it their own, id be happy to build some polished up ones too if everyone wants it, just dont want to spend time on anything that just will go to waste
Awesome...thanks, man! I lost my temper a while back, yeah...but I'm sticking around. This is great to see some activity here again!

Great I'm glad to here you're sticking around! I hope this gives you more to play with as you've done great work with ROMs thus far, this should just add one more element!
And now you won't have people in your threads asking to remove this or add that, you just give them a great stripped down base and let them choose!

Thank you and RicAndroid for helping to keep this device going!
Wow, never thought that aroma installer would be applied with the sidekick
Wanted to make a Aroma Package myself, but the lack of time and knowledge didn't made it possible
Demkantor, I'm definitely interested in getting a fully Aroma package for the Sidekick
I would be brilliant because of all the hard work of all the devs themers, that have been there for the sidekick, would be used in your 'own personal' Rom
What Aroma Installer does : you install a Rom by choosing yourself the kernel, launcher, apps, bloatware, everything by choosing out of a list. Of course depends of what is included in the package!
edit : for all the devs out there, thank you for helping to keep the Sidekick alive.
I'll be using this at a later time, dude. For now, I'm excited to announce that I have finally fixed the Jump key bug....on my own, BTW. So, now....anyone here have any other comparisons with GOV you want to throw my way?
All right since you guys want it ill try to find some time tonight or tomorrow to build a more expanded one, I have some ideas in mind but it would be nice to know what you all are looking for too

Did I motivate you to fix it Ric? And let me know when you apply it to the other ROMs so I can update NexusCM

You sure did....lol. I dug through the whole framework until I found what was wrong. There were entries in the recent_apps_dialog.xml and recent_apps.icon.xml that were not correct.
Oh, and I already updated CM.

You should add customizations like the status bar stuff like green wifi signal usb ect
The lockscreen mods ? But by them selfs so it don't take over a tab in settings
Full fonts that have all the characters
Font sizes? (For this I have seen font size (for root users) works but its paid for an beta)
hummm the background of notification center?
Animations like opening a app it will flip or slide in or something
These are just ideas that I could think of at the moment
Sent from my SGH-T839 using xda app-developers app
Those are great ideas but by in large they would need to be ROM dependent as they would be editing the systemui.apk, like status_bar.xml files and the like
But there are some things of this sort that could be done in any ROM, no matter the base so I'll see what I can come up with.
Maybe when I get some more time I'll build a ROM with these types of things implemented so for now hopefully ricandroid or someone working on ROMs may take this up....
Anyway I'll post another package shortly, don't have time to add in everything I would like to but that just means I'll have to keep going!

ok new aroma! check second post, this is a much larger package (over twice the size of the last) so i dint get a change to test everything, if anyone is will to run a few tests i would be very appreciative
as always, Happy Flashing!
