[ROM][06-10-2011] EE4 Debloated V4.2.1

I took the ED2 ROM, deodexed and zip aligned it, then debloated it and added in a few useful things. This has most of the stuff removed that came with the Stock ROM, including TWLauncher, which has been replaced with AOSP Launcher. The ROM is rooted and also includes busybox for some useful linux tools. I've also included the Gingerbread keyboard from here as another keyboard alternative. This is not fully tested yet, so there may be a few issues. As people use it, I can add things people would like (such as mods as they become available), or remove stuff people don't want/use.

So, I've already got the voodoo lagfix from jt1134 on my Charge, would using this mess that up?
Oh and thanks for the work you've done!

beautiful... will try in a few.
thank you!!!

No, you will need to flash this via the CWM that he posted.
I'm also trying to get "Go Back" into CWM, as well as releasing a kernel posted soon.

You can use the three button method "VolUp-VolDown + Power" Release power when the Samsung logo appears.
Or
Use Quick Boot from the Market, works for me.

Quick questions, can this be flashed over voodoo?
Do I have to do a wipe first?
Thanks bud.

I'd actually use "Reboot Button" since it also manages the Voodoo lagfix file...

Same question as above, I just installed voodoo's kernel. Do I just boot into CWM and then install as a .zip?

This can be flashed regardless of what kernel you're on, as long as you have CWM available. You can choose to wipe cache/dalvik if you want, but it isn't necessary from my experience.
If you were on stock and had an update for My Verizon, you may need to use Titanium Backup to finish removing it as I found out. The same likely goes for any other apps that were in stock but were updated from the Market.
I'll start removing more things then as I figure out what it is they do and if they are necessary for normal use of the phone. There are some apks left that I'm not sure what they do yet, so I'm leaving them in for now.

If you keep the media hub, you should probably revert it to ED1 so the can't play on 3G "feature" is gone.

[CWM][I9003] CWM for Gingerbread XXKPH (coming soon)

This is temporarily unavailable. Will be back soon (only with CWM, for now)
Here I present you the CF-ROOT for I9003 [XXKPH only]
You can flash this over any other CWM or over the stock FW.
Feature Set:
- Root ( don't need to use SOC or any ZIP);
- Busybox 1.17.2;
- init.d support (you can put in the folder /system/etc/init.d all the script that you want to be loaded at the startup);
- Added EXT4 support to the phone ( so you can convert the filesystem to ext4 to improve performance);
- Added "Reboot into Download Mode" from within CWM
- full working CWM Manager (backup - restore - delete backup - install apk (Thanks to Skin1980)
- flash update.zip - flash kernel - reboot to CWM);
- Tweaks Manager with various tweak ( Ram Min Free - SD Speed - I/O Scheduler - Kernel Scheduler - CPU Conservative Governor - Swappiness - Ram Script by Juwe11 - Media Stagefright)
Thanks to Skin1980 (I have used his CF-Root for XXKPE and tweaked it for XXKPH).
Feedback and Thanks are welcome ...

Reserved for future.

Is TouchWiz AppDrawer pinched to zoom out animation smooth on this version? Any ext4 CWM/CF-ROOT released for XXKPE previously has this problem.
EDIT: Your tar file is much smaller? How did you do it?

Brilliant!
Btw, any possible issues installing this after the rooting has been done by old CWM+SOC+reflash new normalboot.img method?

nice work mate

Pressing the home button instantly reboots the phone after I flashed this over XXKPH.
LE: Nevermind, seems to be a one time issue, everything works fine now. Phone rooted. Thanks!

Thanks a lot man!
@thedirtchamber: Launcher problems / inconsistencies. Need more details mate. What mods have you done? Using some other launcher? Theme?

No mods, using Launcher Ex, no themes. Like I said, happened only after first boot. I got into the settings menu, then I wanted to go back to the home screen using the phone button and it rebooted almost instantly (the image faded for 2 seconds before it rebooted).

Sorry for that Skin1980. I was in a hurry to get my hands dirty on XXKPH. I have my own version of CWM, where I am doing more things like 2nd partition in External SD, EXT4 on internal and external SD, Busybox 1.19, etc.
I have a different version of CWM version created for public, as I have very different setup from the rest.
I really liked your work on CF-Root, so I thought of including that as well and also provide you necessary credit.
Also, I am in the process of porting CyanogenMod for I9003 (still a long way to go), in which I would be creating a different version of CF-Root.
I am going to remove the CF-Root portion from my version of CWM and will post this soon (Removing the current CWM version from this thread, for now).
You are correct, I could have contacted you. Sorry again for that.

Battery mod + CRT OFF + CRT ON

I made a framework-res.apk file for my own use to include
1. battery percentage mod
2. crt off effect
It wasn't planned as the official release or something alike so I haven't tested it extensively. Again, it was just for my own use and I decided to share.
The file is based on official deodexed kj6 from RaverX3X with stock kj6 kernel so it should work for anybody who uses this ROM. It works fine on my device.
Not sure about the odexed version.
TO USE - overwrite the framework-res.apk in /system/framework/ with rootexplorer or any other file browser with root access.
I suggest to run a backup first but it's your choice
12/1/11
Adding CRT-ON animation
Same deal as with the CRT-OFF but this time we're overwriting the services.jar file in the same location inside /system/framework/

Works great. Thanks!

Now I'm running the kj1 kernel since kj6 didn't have vodoo & cmw, will this MOD not work with kj1?

Titanium backup can clean dalvik.
or you can try cleaning cache in the stock recovery... Are you on deodexed build?

Quick note for people who dont have CRT On Off working - If you are using SpareParts and have the transition and animation speed set to FAST, you have to change it to NORMAL. CRT ON OFF do not work with FAST speeds.
Just my $0.02

Try flashing Drhonks kj1 kernel with Odin, that will give you cmw recovery and then you'll be able to wipe davlik cache.

[Q] Bionix rom

Once flashed, is this rom compatible with Infusion Core A kernel? UCKL2 modem? I really like the look of the Rom.

It will flash...but don't expect video (and whatever else it breaks) to work...
It is based off of the latest AT&T leak so it has to have the stock kernel for everything to work.
Yes any Infuse modem will work.

Fonts
Are there any fonts or themes for this rom? I was under the impression it was based on MIUI, and could therefore be customized. the only MIUI element I see is the lockscreen manager. Am i missing something?

Its a work in progress, give it time, Nop seems to have a lot in store for his new Rom!

After flashing, Superuser is disappeared from App drawer and become "unrooted" but superuser is already installed as reported by Market.
Uninstall and reinstalling, no problem but still now shown in App Drawer and reported "unrooted" whenever useing apps which need root access..
Tried re-root with SOC, stuck with the messeage "waiting for device" and would not be continued..
Any idea ??

Odin/heimdall flash a custom kernel. then download the su updater for cwm I think the link is in the open of caty rom or something. reflash the rom (sometimes su gets corrupt and causes all sorts of issues, best to format /system and reinstall the rom for good measure) and flash the su updater immediately after. make sure you do this before a reboot and that voodoo is disabled on your phone. there should be a folder on the root of the SD card named "Voodoo" the V is capital and in that rider should be a text file or folder named "disable-lagfix" if this is not there before you flash the voodoo/cwm enabled kernel and lagfix gets enabled you must disable it and reboot before you flash the rom.
this leak is really secure, you need the custom "insecure" kernel to root it and there seems to be an issue with the build of bionix causing people problems. read the thread but don't get too confused on all the different advice.
also if you can use heimdall I posted a heimdall flashable dump from my phone in the bionic thread. it already has updated superuser and su.

no Voodoo exists but the disable-lagfix file/folder doesn't. it is usually a file but if you create it as a folder it works.
if you have no Voodoo folder you should create it as well as the disable-lagfix to speed up the process and avoid issues. or you can install bionix from my heimdall package. your choice.

I cant tell fron the screenshots....does this rom have the lockscreen that allows you to choose unlock, phone, sms, or camera?

You can try uninstalling adfree from tibu
If that doesn't work, you may have to try to figure out how to fix permission, wipe dalvik and wipe cache.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App

I just installed this rom ontop of the old V2 bionix iv been running for months, figured it was about time I upgraded lol. Iv been playing with it a bit, and am getting used to the new layout. Maybe this is intentional but where did the battery info and pulldown task bar ontop go? Also some things seem to be not fitted to the screen correctly, like my contacts list and the lock screen is cutoff 3/4 way thru the clock on bottom. Ill keep playing with the settings when I wakeup I just wanted to check I didnt miss something or install it wrong, like a lingering file between the 2 versions caused an incompatibility. Other then that its pretty sexy sofar

[REQUEST] Platypus Egg Kernel flashable

I posted this in the general section, but no one has answered it. Please release the platypus egg kernel as a .zip file or post a link to where I can download the kg2 odin file so that I can flash the bali port. I want voodoo and refuse to flash an entire rom just to get voodoo.

check the heimdall thread i have it posted there last 2 pages

heimdall isnt working on my computer unless you posted an odin file in that thread its not going to help me.

Unless you are in love with the Samsung launcher vs. GOv2's Launcher Pro (or my preferance: download ADW.Launcher), there is no reason not to upgrade to GOv2 and get all the other tweaks in addition to the Kernal.
I know you say you've had trouble in the past, but just try it like this:
1) Boot in to CWM with the GOv2 zip on the sdcard.
2) Check your mounts
3) Run a backup
4) Check your mounts
5) Wipe data, wipe cash, wipe dalvik-cache
6) Check your mounts
7) Flash GOv2
8) Check your mounts
9) Advanced-Restore data partition only
10) Check your mounts
11) Reboot
Best case, everything works great and you just upgraded the Kernal as well as many other good things / tweaks, while still keeping all your apps and all your config.
Worst case, just boot in to CWM and restore what you currently have. You only waste about 15min of your life in trying, and I don't see how GOv2 could have any drawbacks over stock+bali (other then the alternate Launcher and themed icons/widgets - I installed AWD, unthemed all my icons, and I love the transparent-black widgets).
You should NEVER need to Odin unless you can't get in to CWM (which should never happen).
NOTE: When I say check your mounts, each partition on that CWM page should read "unmount" (meaning they are currently mounted). Check your mounts before/after each step, including before the final reboot.

I know how to check mounts. I want to keep touchwiz because of the themes. I really like the stock themes, and none of the launchers from the market have the option to view the app drawer as a list. if they did, i would consider using one of them. the stock themes are not really what is important. viewing the app drawer as a list is. my process thus far has been as follows: odin to kd1, kies to kj2, root, backup, flash rom, then restore system only from the backup. it hasnt been stable enough so far, but right now i am considering trying it a little different. i am going to get back to stock kj2, then delete all bloatware and all google apps from the system, then backup, then flash, then restore system from the backup, then reinstall any apps i want from the market. I also have the .apk file for play store, so i am also going to delete market and market updater before backing up. then after restoring system, i am just going to install google play store from my sd card. if anyone has any thoughts, please respond soon. i already odined back to kd1, getting ready to do kies to kj2. that takes a few minutes as i have to unplug the phone from the pc and reinstall the drivers through kies.

But I would prefer to just flash the kernel. I dont see any reason why they wouldnt release it.

well, after a very lengthy and complicated process, i finally have the platypus kernel on kj2. here is what i did. i started kies mini but didnt plug my phone in yet. i just went to menu and install driver. then i odined. after reboot, unplug the phone, back to kies, install drivers again. plug phone in and update firmware through kies. after reboot, unplug and install driver again. turn on usb debugging and root through super one click. reboot. install drivers again. then go through the system and delete all google and tmobile apps. get cwm running and take a backup. connect mass storage and copy b2tb to sd card. flash according to instructions. reboot. let the phone sit while i walk my dog. come back, boot into recovery, select advanced restore, system only. fix permissions, wipe dalvik, reboot. reinstall desired apps through market website. that was all last night. today i supercharged. so far so good.

well, its been almost 24 hours since i finished everything up. stable so far. no random reboots, no force closes, no screen lag or freeze, no crashes. i kept my backup from before the flash, just in case. gonna give it another day or two to make sure everything really is stable, then take a backup of the current setup. once i do that, im leaving this phone the hell alone lol.

To clear the record, I never had trouble flashing roms except for once and it was because i flashed cwm through rom manager before i knew not to do that. my most recent trouble started when i attempted to move dalvik to my ext2 partition. something went wrong when i attempted to move dalvik, and it got deleted. i had a backup and tried to restore, but got an md5sum mismatch. i did a factory reset through voodoo and it screwed up my apn settings. i restored default settings, but it didnt work. so basically after much trial and error, i have a stable advice again.

Do you still want this as a flashable zip???

i don't have a flashable zip unfortunately, but what i've been doing is flashing the zimage thru Odin. if that helps you at all, if you're comfortable with Odin, i've been meaning to upload the tar file for the kernel that i made to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538576
WolfV2 said he would add it to the OP once i uploaded it. other than that, ReActiveDisorder had made a flashable zip, but i see that all his links have been removed.
edit: there's also nxd's tutorial on flashing a kernel with Hemidall here:

Wait hold up, what am I thinking... had a little brain freeze there!. You could just use nxd's build of the Bali Kernel for KJ2:

That also has the keystroke logger removed, AND a patch to improve keyboard responsiveness and efficiency!
