It might brick your phone, it might permanently break 4G, it might kill your kitten.
I take no responsibility for any problems from this ROM, including but not limited to poor reception, deleting your entire Facebook account, or causing nuclear warfare.
It is also not much of an original work. I basically just get my kanging on with some ROMs before I load them, and someone had mentioned they might be interested.
Basically I am an AOSP fan, and really liked Bugless Beast 0.4. As bugs were found and Pete moved away from the EVO tjohnsonjr's NonSense became the spiritual successor for some of us. This ROM just takes it a small step further.

I left the HTC browser, because it will still support double tap to resize, and the HTC copy and paste tool. It just sucks that it only allows 4 tabs. I did not put in a lot of the stuff people typically put in like Rom Manager, Titanium Backup, etc. since they will be out of date so soon anyway.
I have been mostly using CM6 instead of this, and had to kinda remake it, and it isn't very well tested. In fact I am currently in Mexico on vacation so I haven't been able to test the phone or data connections.
If you find something wrong, just post it here so I can ignore it, or maybe make fun of you. If it breaks your phone, you are welcome to whine here. If you post your mailing address I will either send a new phone to you to replace it, or stick a smelly dead fish in your mailbox, or not do anything at all. More than likely the last option.
I don't know why you would want to run this instead of a smooth running ROM that has actually had bugs fixed and won't FC every 3 minutes. CM6 is really strong as a 2.2 right now, and the official 2.2 is kinda out/will be out for real in days. DC and Fresh and NonSense and Baked Snack and many others are killer 2.1 ROMs that give you more features, stability, and battery life than stock. I sure don't plan to run this, or support it. Those guys really know what they are doing.... I can't even figure out how to change the default wallpaper without breaking stuff.
This ROM is just lame.
If you are still interested I suggest talking to a doctor. And you can grab it from the link right here.
Of course a big thanks to all the people I have totally mooched off of. I'm missing some, but off the top of my head.

If this is merely bb4 without the awake bug, I want it. Any word on that?

It's not really BB 4, but I THINK it won't have the awake bug. The awake bug seems to have something to do with all the stuff he pulled out. The NonSense ROM is much more conservative on what it removes (HTC Dialer is still in there for instance).
What do people like about Bugless Beast? The more I know what in particular to bring over, the better this will be.
I could also try to grab BBv4 and fix it, but it is pretty old at this point (pre 1.47) and it doesn't seem worth the effort.
That said, if I keep this going it will more than likely become a CM6 base with tweaks, since it is true AOSP, not just sense with AOSP apps hacked in.

As long as someone at least got a giggle out of the OP, even if no one runs the ROM, it is a success.
What do you guys want out of a Froyo build that isn't already in CM6? Things are too crazy at work right now to have something out very soon, but I'm game to do more. I just don't know what AOSP people want that isn't already in CM.

Could somebody thats gotten this working with the Mesmerize help me. I've switched out the apns xml file, added the cdma xml, and edited the build.prop. I have yet to get data working, though, I've flashed everything, back and forth, several times each. Anybody that could help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you gotten issues worked out that JT still has? IE: are you basically trying to convert JTs build only for mesmeriize, or are you going above and beyond and fixing issues like camera, bt, etc?
I just still haven't gotten data working with anything I've tried, I am by no means a real dev like dfgas and jt. So, I am just trying to get it ported for awesomeness.

Those issues exist on all AOSP builds. Just something you have to deal with until they can figure out fixes for them.

No, comm rom is Touchwiz based, that only replaces the mms app. I think it would only further break mms in an AOSP rom. The problem is deeper in AOSP roms. That sure would be nice, though!

If your thinking that it would fix mms, it wouldn't, all aosp roms have this problem for us.
Darn, got ninja'd.
The issues with MMS/Camera on AOSP rom's are very difficult, there is no easy fix or it would have been done already . From what we have gathered, the problem with MMS lies in WAP (among other things) - we can get it to locate the correct server (and i believe it even connects) but then we get errors referencing WAP not being enabled, therefore not getting the push from the server. One suggestion was that maybe something in the kernel needed to be tweaked, but we haven't gotten any further with testing that theory. Keep in mind most of us putting up ROM's and such in here are not "real" developers, meaning we haven't built anything from source (as far as for the android OS) and therefore we don't really have the capability of fixing such issues. Most of us have been self teaching and learning from others how to "kang" (port) ROM's that have been developed for other phones, that's why you're seeing these drops, so please keep that in mind .
Some developers, such as jamezelle, jt1134, and adrynaline, have been looking at the issues since the beginning, and if they haven't had any luck with current resources - then chances are until we locate certain source or come up with a work-around that they haven't thought of - things will remain as is.
here is an update on the rom, its not looking good, when L3ttuc3 makes the necessary edits to the framework we get a fc when we receive a sms and try to send one.

If you pull up the build.prop in the link i posted and compare to his and make the same changes - your data should work. We haven't had to tweak anything to get data working so i'm thinking an incorrect change in build.prop could be the case - or you could just be unlucky

I always just skip the setup, all you need to do is log in to google but yea that's annnoying.
Once I have electricity again (some time next week ), I'll fix the framework so you can add a variable to build.prop that will fix SMS instead of having to make jar edits every time.

Ok, I flash the fixed zip, wiped everything, reboot, and... still no data. So, I odin'd back to stock, thinking I may have screwed something up, reflash... and still no data, so yeah.
The only other thing I can think of is a different radio, but I've had data on all the other ec01 mes fixed roms I've tried.
Here is my Skyrocket ROM built from Code Aurora Forum source. This is Android 2.3.6. It is not even close to a daily driver and probably never will be.
DO NOT INSTALL THIS UNLESS YOU ARE VERY EXPERIENCED IN DEBUG AND KNOW HOW TO USE 'adb'.
I am posting this to help with the effort to build a community ICS ROM. Perhaps my device tree will help. As such, I do not plan on spending any more time debugging the issues with the rom. I would rather focus on helping the community get an ICS build going.
Link to my device tree: https://github.com/dferg/android_device_msm8660_skyrocket
Link to build instructions: https://github.com/dferg/android_device_msm8660_skyrocket/blob/master/README.md
Link to Code Aurora Forum: https://www.codeaurora.org/xwiki/bin/QAEP
Link to the ROM (build #20): http://d-h.st/gU2
What works?
calls (no audio), sms, 2D graphics, wifi, bluetooth
What doesn't work?
cell data, audio, nfc, int+ext sdcards
Instructions for install:
In CWM, wipe factory
In CWM, install this zip
Reboot + wait up to 3 minutes
If you get the lock screen with no way to unlock, connect to your computer and run "adb reboot". You should then get the proper unlock slider.
Notes:
sdcard is detected incorrectly, so do NOT allow it to attempt a format (it will say 'damaged sdcard'--just ignore this)
Even though it says "No SIM Card" calls in and out will work, although no audio...
Updates: 3/21/12
Added link to build instructions on Github
Pushed commits to Github that simplify the build

Nrm is right. Audio seems to be the biggest hurdle.
This rom makes an LTE connection but the data connection just isn't used. Not sure why, but this problem seems easier than audio (which I have had no luck debugging so far)

Oh wow, if you get AOSP GB fully operational for the phone (other then call audio, dunno whats up with that), we could get CM7 working fully (with source), and get official!

Thanks Longcat. Like alphadog pointed out, I'm not actively working on this one right now in favor of helping out the ICS efforts. But if someone else would like to collaborate or even pick up where I left off, please have at it. My reason for starting this ROM was to eventually get CM7 fully stable, as you suggested.
I wish someone would be able to pick this up I understand the importance of ics but the hurdles with gb seem far fewer than ics and would tide the masses over once I get my other hdd set up with Ubuntu I hope to take a peek

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.

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!!

...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 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.

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

I finally got my computer working again, so I have some questions regarding rom cooking. Would I need permission to use ayOteddy's "Stock [email protected] Deo Rooted" as a base for my roms. And If I really wanna get into this, some recommendations for ideas even if I dont use them?
ALSO. Its well known that we do not really have a soft lanscape keyboard, no matter what keyboard used, right? Well that's wrong. Its been awhile since Ive used this keyboard, I used it on my old Optimus T actually, however, the keyboard known as "Hacker's Keyboard" has an option to always view the landscape keyboard even if a hardware keyboard input is present. Just thought you all would like to know that I figure my little discovery could be useful to you all ^_^ Welcome.
*** One more thing, does anyone know ways I can change the settings options and navigation + links? Like, the Theme Settings space for example?

I actually used KJ2 for TigerFusion without permission. I figured since ay0teddy retired long ago, he would not reply to my PM. I think as long as you give credit to him it should be fine.
I recommend using ASimmons Theme Injector if you want to port over a theme. Just remember that the Sidekick 4G uses hdpi. What I did for Froyo Iced Up was just change one letter in the apk.....the m in mdpi to h. If you don't do this, the result will be a brick. I had to use Odin to flash back to stock....lol.
And remember that the Bali kernel with keylogger removed will only work on KJ2. You can actually extract the zip and copy the contents from the kernel_flasher folder right into the update folder of your kitchen project.
Thanks for the keyboard app recommendation. I'll definitely try it out! Good luck with the rom cooking. :good:

Re: Thanks RicAndroid I was actually gonna theme the rom from each file individually though ^_^ and I could also use some help with another thing. How do I get the extended power menu? 0.0
Hats off to ayoteddy, sduvick, and krylon for the work they did. When all is said and done, those are really the people that pushed things forward and got the Sidekick 4g a couple useful 3rd party kernels.
As I recall, ayoteddy shared his stock deodexed rom so other people could have some fun cooking up their own custom. So, just credit him and move on. I don't think he'll be upset at all.
Make sure to also credit krylon and sduvick in anything you do. If you dig back into the forum, you'll see that they worked together.

That was way tricky. You need to add three pngs to the drawable-hdpi folder after you decompile the framework-res.apk.... reboot, reboot_ recovery and download. Then edit the strings.xml folder.... after that, it gets pretty hairy. I'll send you a pm with all the steps needed to configure the android.policy.jar file.
Oh, and thanks for the advice orange808!

That would be very helpful! Thank you. And about the keyboard, no problem. Have you checked it out yet?
Also, any ideas for a good color scheme? I wont name my project til I have a scheme for the look. AND.....should I kill touchwiz launcher? o.o

Dude...I just thought of something. Why don't you make a custom Key Lime Pie theme? Just use the various images found on the net for inspiration....maybe you can make a kind of CM theme based on yellow and green...just a thought!
As for TouchWiz....ugh...I personally hate it. Why not go with Go Launcher? It is a bit on the hefty side but is very theme-able!

That is a great idea not gonna draw conclusions yet, but the whole green color seems to look nice on the SK. And I used to love Go Launcher, but it became so chock-ful of ads and weird buying with credits and just....it became a bit too much I think? I might poke around and try to find an older version of ADW and just break the market link so it doesnt upgrade to the new one. Which by the way, I wanted to suggest in case Holo Launcher starts to get old for you, it looks alot like the ICS update, spare the icons. But with a theme installed its gotta be the best ICS launcher I've seen yet IMO anyway.

Learning
Well, I tryed to set up the EPM for Sidekick from scratch. No go, it's different than a lot of other devices it seems. Could anyone direct me with this a little? Please? It would be awesome because I really want to learn some while building this.
I know I have a lot of questions, but believe me, I appreciate it more than you know and I love the community for all its provided help. I have one more:
Which file happens to be for the notification background? Have tried a few but see no differences :/
It is amazing how PDT and ayoteddy got all of this working. I tried editing the classes.dex file on my own, but it seems that the Sidekick 4G is a freak mutation of some sort.
I wound up taking a shortcut and used GenericGinger's android.policy.jar file. I edited the GlobalActions.smali file using Notepad ++ and added the reboot info from the public.xml located in the framework.

Then make em useful posts instead of blabbing in random posts... if there is time to shoot the **it, then there is time to help. Just do some searching or redirecting. Or, post some opinions on someones theme or app or whatever, then they could use that feedback for the better rather than some random post.
Just saying, could be doing other things bud. Not to sound like a jerk or any bad way that can be taken. Good-luck with the posts.
Dude...you still working on this?
