well i got it to install, but it force closes...some things need to be edited just not sure what exactly
You guys can't possibly be talking about the "Bubbles" lwp that's on the market, can you?
My dog could draw better graphics than that one has.
OK, so no, that's not what you're talking about. Any screenshots of it someone could link to? I'd like to check out some cool live wallpapers....

it's the one from the htc desire. like i said it works on the desire and since someone got the desire rosie.apk ported, i thought that maybe it would be possible to get it to work. maybe it has some dependencies on the desire framework...im not too sure.

sorry.
I'm looking through the file and i think its only a matter of it looking for a different renderer engine than the one that are on our phone. I almost got it. Just give me like a couple more hours, or sooner. lol

Ah, that one. Yeah, that one's pretty cool. Not a "must have", but it would be cool to have on my phone as an option.
I could make a youtube video of the one I was referring to, but trust me, it's not worth it...
Now, for a completely unrelated question....
How do I get one of the demo phones? I've done all the right things. Tried the phone stock when it was fresh out of the box, tried better roms, wiped EVERYTHING and then reflashed the fastest roms I've found, and my phone has never, ever been as snappy as what they show in these demo videos.
Makes me wonder if they build special demo phones that have a 3ghz core 2 quad in them with three and a half minutes of battery life.... (just enough to do a quick demo and then run back to the booth for a fresh battery...)

Someone leaked it to modaco a while ago. As for messing around with it. Install it and run logcat to see why it fails. Then use smali or the apktool from the g1 forums to modify it.

Anyone managed to make it work?
I'm surprised that there haven't been any AOSP roms yet. Sense uses up a lot of ram and memory, AOSP roms would definitely make this phone beastlier.
Besides noxtel and teamsilence, do we even have any other developers? Pretty sad because this is such a good device.

Some people take the internet way too seriously. Lighten up. A simple Google search would have told you what it meant. Just because someone tried to give you a nudge for self help is no reason to call names and act like a digital douchebag.

All good. Now, that I see that you're from twin cities... how's your data connection? Mine drops off every few minutes, tower hand-off issue? Only drops for a second or two but makes streaming music VERY annoying.
Sorry to go off-topic here.
lmao I love when people use LMGTFY... by the way if you didnt figure out what it was its just stock style android like what would come on the G1, G2, or Nexus phone's, people call it AOSP or Vanilla Android... I call it AOSP but it doesn't truly make sense because thats the project as a whole...
btw if you just looking for a stock AOSP rom I ported it for my mt4g :/ I just did it for my personal use so I added the custom things that I like but I don't really have the time to trouble shoot it or add other peoples custom things to it.... but if you want it let me know and Ill shoot it over

I don't really ever lose my H when it would ever really annoy me.. like I don't get it at home, but I have wifi there...and I don't get it on like one road on my way to work which sucks because I stream pandora to my radio in my car...but other than that I am really satisfied, but that might be simply because I am not a real POWER user...well I am I guess.. but maybe then its just because I came from an unlocked iphone 2g...so lets just say a laggy "H" is still a FAR better connection than edge...hahah

I didin't really know what AOSP was cept an acronym for android open source project...but now that you have explained to me that it is just anothe way of referring to vanilla builds or whatever, that makes a lot more sense to me.... I don't think I am looking or an AOSP though... cuz I like the friendstream widget, and the news widget...cuz it vastly entertains me to browse status updates and what not from a home screen rather then having to go to a site or open an application...or pay for a widget that mirrors a widget I have for free... naawww mean?????

lmao im not gonna lie... i always preferred sense... that is until 2.2... that really stepped it up in my opinion, when I used my nexus one I always said it would be great if we could mash the 2... For example I like the aosp gallery but like the sense widgets (I guess I'm just a sucker for animations lol)... I built an aosp rom for myself a few weeks back but missed sense so went back to work on my tmo sense... now that I changed my status icons, changed recent apps in the status bar to be like the vibrants status bar and and changed the myfav's quick launch button changed I think I'm finally content in keeping it this way... or at least for the rest of the day lmao

As dumb as this may sound, I have to rely on someone else to try this method and report back. I'm "uptime" testing a Rom, and can't reboot. :-(
And also, 6 minutes and 23 seconds into Top Gear, and it just crashed on my phone...So it's officially not stable on my Rom either. :-(

Well no luck running RCKingdom v0.2 and doesn't play at all but lets you browse. Sill early, I'm sure some dev will get it working in no time.
Here's to wishful thinking!
Inspire 4g on CoreDroid 6.3 with latest LeeDroid Kernal. Sound but no video. Even though it's half functional, I'm just happy the app is finally out instead of them ***** footing around release dates. Soon enough we'll be golden.
I'm running leedroid 3.0.3 and I'm still getting the white screen of Doom
I just tried it in gingerbeast and it doesn't work. I shows a black screen for 13 seconds and then it does back to the movie list.

Is there such a thing as a resource monitor for Android? I ask this, because my room mate has the Captivate, and it works fine. Always. Maybe witha monitor of some sort, we could see what resources are being used on the Captivate -vs- the Inspire and kinda compare from there?
Obviously these are two different phones, but the general concept of functionality should not be too far off.

Top gear is by far the best show on TV. Btw I'm running aosp rc1 and video and audio worked for about 15 seconds and now nothing
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
The room mate and I are gonna try to crack this case tonight! The plan is very stupid, but whatever. haha.
The basic principle of functionality should be equal clean across the board. It has to be the lack of a file or files that is preventing this. The hardware itself is VERY capable of working. This leads use to our conclusion...
I already had drmprovider.apk in my system folder, but did not have drmua.apk.
Tried adding this file and no dice.
Basically, if I already have the file, it will remain untouched. Anything else will be merged in, until it either works, or crashes the phone. I DO NOT SUGGEST OTHERS TRY THIS. I personally don't care, because I have insurance, under warranty, etc.
If we make any progress I will keep you all informed. And well...If I brick my phone, then I'll see you all in a few days. haha
Who wants to try this?

Well I tried it and it works just cant get a data connecting 2g 3g or wifi. it was cool though having ICS for a minute!
this one didnt have the onscreen buttons too!
Cant wait for this to be put on this device. Tried a Galaxy Nexus at the local store and was amazed at the software. I would get one of those but seriously Tegra 2 is better than sgrx 540, Trust me that GN can not do what this G2x can in terms of gaming!
Hey guys,
Sorry but it seemed like this was the only way to figure something out. I've had my MT4GS for an year now and i've been trying on new roms since the day i got it. All in hopes that i would find one that actually works. I'm tired of all the Alphas and frankly i'm tired of them. It seems like everyone and their mother has an Alpha ROM out. I'm not making this up, maybe you guys have seen it too. A few weeks ago, someone released a ROM (Alpha) saying, the phone, the wifi, and the camera doesn't work. I was thinking, "why would you release this, what can the phone do with this ROM?"
Enough about my rants, these are the ROMs that i've actually used for a considerable amount of time and the problems.
Bulletproof- It had huge syncing problems and it would crash. (used it for 3 months)
Virtuous Inquisition- Crashed very often and the battery life wasn't as good, no trackpad support. (used it for 6 months)
Cyanogenmod 9 (Tried all Alphas)- Half the apps don't install from the market saying "its not supported on this device" (WTF??) (Used it for 3 weeks)
Virtuous Infinity- Loved it, not a big fan of sense but this was good but the connection kept dropping out, sometimes during calls. (used it for a week)
I got fed up and went back to Virtuous Inquisition. It was crashing but it was the most stable one that i've used so far.
all i'm looking for is one that has the basic functions and has a good battery life. I remember the days of CM7, where the battery lasted FOREVER. It doesn't have to be that good but as long as it is descent.
anyone have any recommendations?
What do you mean by crashing? I have used Bulletproof for over 6 months and it never crashes. It is the most stable rom I have found. Are you perhaps over or underclocked? That can cause issues. Also, there are lots of other threads that ask this same question, so why not post in one of those, instead of starting a new thread about the same topic that has been covered many many times.
Search function, maybe?

Just because it's labeled as an alpha doesn't mean it isn't. Some people just label it that so they don't have to deal with idiots when they complain.

Are you serious? Neither Amazon Appstore nor SlideME are equivalent to the google play store for number of apps. Meh.
I'm looking into getting a MYT4GS, since there seem to be no new phones that have a slide out keyboard, fast dual core processor and a screen with at least a 800x480 resolution.

Don't walk in and complain and then backpedal, saying that you were just looking for the best alpha. I'm not a developer, but I still think your thread post was a kick in the nuts.
You know what you're entitled to around here? Stock 2.3.4. That's it. Everything else is gravy. So sit down, open your wallet, and shut up.

I just have to say that the other app stores are not as good as play. It isn't about having the most apps. The apps from the Amazon store are not updated as frequently as the ones in the play store, and the developers are not getting paid properly, that is why the apps in the Amazon store are not as plentiful or maintained as frequently.

So, it is a big problem that has nothing to do with wanting the most apps. It is bad for the Devs.

I just have to say that the other app stores are not as good as play. It isn't about having the most apps. The apps from the Amazon store are not updated as frequently as the ones in the play store, and the developers are not getting paid properly, that is why the apps in the Amazon store are not as plentiful or maintained as frequently.

I also cited the SlideME market, which has frequently-maintained apps.

Well, I still think that not having the play store is a big problem. I want everything that Android has to offer, I personally like having books, movies, t.v. shows, mags, and apps at my fingertips one of the major reasons why I own a smartphone. Telling someone to get an Iphone because they want everything the Play store has to offer isn't really constructive or very nice. I love all the roms that our devs have made for our phone, but I choose to use Bulletproof so that I can have everything working that came with this phone. People value different things in roms, I think it is not appropriate to put someone down because they want the market. I would love to run one of the ICS roms, but for now the best fit for me is a Gingerbread rom because everything is working.

Hey guys,
I've had my MT4GS for an year now and i've been trying on new roms since the day i got it. All in hopes that i would find one that actually works. I'm tired of all the Alphas and frankly i'm tired of them. It seems like everyone and their mother has an Alpha ROM out.

I know why they are labeled Alpha. I am a developer myself.

OK. If you've:
a. had the MT4GS for a year,
b. are tired of all the "Alphas,"
c. are a developer,
...maybe you should make your own "Alpha." This place is called XDA Developers, not XDA whine-and-complain-about-alphas-and-say-I'm-a-developer-to-add-credibility-to-my-name. If actually ARE a developer, you should be ashamed of yourself for disparaging the work of the MT4GS devs.
You joined XDA to complain that xmc is trying to get stable Jelly Bean on our device? Seriously?
The MT4GS is one of the few dual-core phones that never received an official update to ICS. The devs here managed to get stable ICS on our device. They CHOOSE to share their work with you. You are entitled to nothing. You should know that. You are a developer, aren't you?
Actually, please don't answer that question. Nothing you say will change the fact that you joined XDA to complain about free stuff.

There NEVER should be a rant about ROMs. NEVER. What sense is it to complain about gifts? Do you receive your Christmas presents and then proceed to take 30 minutes to complain about them?

+1. It's ridiculous how ungrateful some people are.

No, I haven't checked it out in a while. I was just referring to the issue of the Amazon and Slideme markets being suitable replacements for Google Play. Didn't you say in an earlier post "CM9. If you're that worried about Play, just download either the Amazon Appstore or SlideME." ? I am confused as to why they would be worried about Play if it is working?
I will give CM9 another look as soon as I have some time. Also for the record, I am very satisfied with the level of development for this phone, and have never complained about the choices of roms. I just took issue with the whole market replacement issue.

I'm sorry if it came off like that. I didn't join this to complain. I was simply asking if anyone has found any roms that they would recommend.
When i said i'm tired, i meant that there are 20+ roms just here at XDA, and I dont want to go through each one for a week only to find out it wont work and i need a new one. So i was asking for RECOMMENDATIONS!
I wasnt ranting at ppl. I know how hard it can be to make a ROM. The ppl at places like CM, Virtuous and other places work their butts off to do these releases. And to pay my respects, i download them and test them thoroughly and send them reports about un-reported bugs that they might have missed.
.
For example, on CM9, you can't download apps like "Android Online Radio" and "Cessna 172 Checklist FULL". They (CM) haven't mentioned the problem, so i reported it to them.
and when i said im a developer, i didnt mean i do ROMs (There are other things you can develop FYI)
now all that put aside, i was ranting about one guy, who had that "nothing working" alpha.
Let me try it again before ppl start yelling at me... I want some HELP with ROMs. Could someone RECOMMEND me a ROM that is stable.
for exapme. rorytmeadows(first post), and yellowjacket1981 actually recommended ROMs. Then it was just bash on the new guy...
and yellowjacket1981, mine cashed every time i tried to sync my dropbox or facebook. Gmail was the only thing that synced without crashing.

Hmm, that is strange, I have no problem syncing my facebook or dropbox. Are you Son? if so did you flash the kernel through adb? My bf is son, and didn't flash the kernel through adb, and he had all kinds of problems until I flashed it through adb for him. I honestly have had zero problems running Bulletproof, that is why I have stuck with it so long.

Also, when you say it crashed, what happens? Did your phone reboot or what?
