I didn't add ANYTHING to this rom, i just combined a stock CyanogenMod7 and Destroyer. Which means it was in one of those.

so far no google apps on phone, i cant setup a google account, market will not open, there are paid apps if the screen gets locked while the camera is on it needs a battery pull to bring it back, FM radio force closes.
I'm pretty sure you get the google apps from either rom manager or go the kush deck's thread in the evo development section and he has gapps w/ sprint vvm as well as regular gapps... I'm pretty sure its a, we aren't supposed to include the gapps but its not a huge issue if you include them, situation... Rom looks pretty cool from the video... I'm gonna give it a couple days to see if we can get the fc's figured out... Thanks for the hard work! Good to see fresh stuff popping up!

duh it is aosp huh, but not even letting me sign into google account, and im on cwm 3.1.0.1 and refuse to flash anything else so ill never be able to flash from cwm no browser so this is beta for sure
I said I was going to try this for a day but I could not get it working and I had a few personal issues
My review:
This is my little review
First off I want to say I had a major problem with the fact that there was warez everywhere in this rom. ADW EX, Root Explorer, and launcher pro plus where what I came across in the little time.
I think the moderators need to close this thread until it gets taken care of.
Besides that the ROM, well I couldn't even get it set up. Rom manager was outdated but couldn't update it in market because it would f/c so I could not flash gapps from rom manager constant browser f/c so I couldn't dl a gapps flashable (my computer is out) so I couldn't really use the rom fully
As for my impressions it looks like straight cm7 with a few warez apps and a couple fonts and a some animation changer that I didn't try but in previews looked cool
All in all I would call this ROM unstable and unusable for right now. Needs work. And I know you said you didnt add anything but these pay-for apps need to leave the ROM
I know this may sound harsh but it's only to make the ROM better. I hope you take what I have to say into consideration
I went checked out the original rom for the evo and it has all the warez apps in it. So he was being honest. I think that one should be locked as well, until those apps can be removed.

Idk, it seems really cool to have some of those paid apps built in... I know for one I Wouldn't mind the rom being built around apps I already use or want to use.

Link is down because paid apps are included in this ro and this goes against xda rules.
In the meantime that OP will fix the rom, this thread is closed, OP pm me when you have fixed it.
Thread Re-opened, OP fixed the rom deleting the paid apps.
I have to say that he didn't on purpose, he used the other source rom (under investigation) and in good faith he didn't check it, well i say that sometimes it could happen, anyway, i asked him to remove the paid apps that i've found, if someone think that there are some others, please, pm me or OP so he can fix it.
Thanks all for cooperation and thanks to OP.

My apologies, I'm not one to rip off someone who put time into their development and (rightfully so) decides to collect some money for their time and IP.
As for the other issues people have had, I can't seem to replicate them. I'll be back around my fiance's shift in the next few days and see what other issues she's had since using it everyday. Hopefully can eliminate them if I can repeat them.

Yea i get it you were just porting the rom that already had the warez in there.
Sorry if in my post I made the fustration pointed at you that wasn't my intention lol.
If i remember my problem was getting GAPPS to download. there was no way for me to do it.
I had tried ROM manager to flash GAPPS and that wouldnt work because it said ROM manager was an "outdated" version.
So i tried to go to the market and that would F/C "which made me need gapps more" and then the browser would force close so i couldnt actually download a flashable zip for GAPPS. So i could never actually get it set up.
Hope that helps.
For me it was just a few different problems that ended up all coming together
Whenever I flashed it and linked my Google account, it popped a prompt asking if I wanted to download gapps and then popped a list of them for me to select from.

When I get my Internet back up and running I will try this rom. And thank you for being honest and removing the warez, even though you didn't put them in. I had a feeling it was an honest mistake

Not an ASOP guy, by any means. But glad to see someone else doing Dev work for the Shift . Just have to watch where you get your resources in the future . But KUDOS on the rom.
any more work on this rom being done?
I'm sorry I haven't had the time to give this the proper attention it deserves. I hope to sit down after my vacation and go through this and really tear it down, hopefully figure out some of the issues and add some features. Will be changing the name as well to not be associated with the blatant piracy.

Hey lukensteinz,
When you get that all put together, I'll included it in my OC'ing [GUIDE] for ICS. Sooner, rather than later, the guide thread will be obsolete in the fact that the thread was based the on GB's kernel. I'll keep an eye on this thread, if your planning on posting it here, or wherever it might pop up!

Guys,
If you haven't seen the thread yet, they've figured out how to get Google Now, normally just for Jelly Bean, working in ICS.
Initially they had it working without the voice features, then someone hacked in a half-attempt which sort of worked.
As of this morning, they've figured out how to get the entire shooting match working, though from what I can tell, there doesn't seem to be a way to get it to work on the Atrix 2 due to space limitations on our /system partition. I was hopeful one of the more knowledgeable devs could take a poke in the thread and see if they could wrangle a way.
Here is the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747224&page=246
Someone in the thread talks about symlinks to sd-ext, but frankly that makes me a little nervous. Anyway, I'd be curious to see what you all could do with it. As it stands I have been using the original .apk in the OP of that thread without voice for a week or more now and its pretty slick.
I believe they only got this to work with ROM's based off of AOSP, which ours isn't. I saw this as well, but I chose to forego until I hear more bases working.

again, as i said, the initial apk works fine.... albeit without the voice piece... they now have the voice piece working assuming you paste in a bunch of libs and such... again, read the end of the thread where they have posted new info...
I got it to work!!!! HELLL YEA! Works perfectly! Just follow the directions from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29635284&postcount=2439 and then replace the velvet apk from here!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29635290&postcount=2440
I had to push with adb though to get it all working!
I am making a backup of my system that you can probably use...
I've been using it for a couple days. I find the voice search fails more than works. I get retry or that weird bell mostly. I am on scv7 though. I have not tried it with stock. Conceptually it's awesome. I just think I would use it more if it worked in notifications. Jelly bean notification + Google now would be sweet. Of course why not just the Google audio and visual
Implant. It fits nicely under the skin behind your right ear.

Did you copy all the lib files?

I might not have used the files in your second link unless the op was updated. Maybe I'll go fresh stock and try again tomorrow. Post your experience with it and let me know if you get the same retry and bells.

I've been playing with t for about an hour... it works near perfectly for me. There are some tiny bugs ie. it lags sometimes but otherwise it's perfect!
He did update the velvet.apk with a new one...
Yes. I'm gonna just try a fresh install tomorrow anyway because of unnecessary tinkering on my part.
That thread blew up. Sooo much to read now its dumb.
Found the leak a week ago and we're already trying to get jelly bean apps working on it. Are we sure the CIA didn't release android to keep us occupied and docile.

I appreciate you giving it a shot. You had plenty of space in /system to get it installed? It seemed awfully close to filling that partition up for me.
Are you on stock 4.0.4?
Again, i'm nervous to risk filling up that partition, especially without a solid backup or anything. Color me cautious.
So everyone knows that situation we are in with our kernel.... At the moment, its DECENT, but it is extremely outdated. Although it is enough to keep things working at the moment, who knows what may happen with future OS releases... We have had no official support since the days of gingerbread. Myself and a handful of other developers have been making changes/additions when needed and to the best of our abilities, but with such an outdated kernel, it is getting harder and harder to make necessary changes to work with the existing source.
As of right now, this will be a two man project... Myself and rwaterspf1. Those of you who are not familiar with rwaterspf1, that is the member that recently donated his infuse to me. I got to talking with him and it turns out that he is not a stranger around kernel development in other areas. I am currently talking with a couple other people and may get some assistance from them as well.
We will be attempting to add support for the infuse4g into the Aries kernel. - Which is a updated and supported kernel
This is DAY ONE, and nothing has been done yet. This is the very beginning and for those of you that are not familiar with kernel development, there is alot that goes into it, so do NOT expect this to be completed with a day or two. This will be an ONGOING development thread.
As a disclaimer, I want to make sure that everyone is aware that this may NOT work at all and may just be a huge fail. We will try our best and from the looks of it, I think its definitely something we can figure out.
This is a WORK IN PROGRESS, and we ask that you all support us even in the event of failure.
Progress can be found -> HERE
Efforts as of 4/28/2013
* MTD partition table and file system files added into kernel
* Touchscreen drivers copied over
* Added video driver files and edited existing files
* Edited modem files for infuse compatibilities
* Infuse edits added to sec_jack file for compatibility
You can find rwaterspf1's profile from HERE
There will be numerous benefits if we are able to do this... And hell... who knows.... it may even fix up the 720p recording issue in doing this... No promises though.
I'm willing to try. And I'm last to throw rocks as long as great effort is given. And seeing your roms, don't think you have any other mindset.

Thread CLOSED. Builds are all broken, no updates EVER. No chance of being fixed.
I don't mean to be rude or anything, but what is the purpose of this thread? Why don't you just let the people convert the ROM themselves with the app by @legolas93? This way you are just taking away legolas93's profit from the app.

I think you're being a bit harsh to the guy tbh, he was just trying to provide a service, if he had actually mentioned @legolas93 then I bet you wouldn't have slated him?
Anyway, good work @LiquidSmokeX64 with providing your service. I'm still sticking to my own conversion (Edit: Using @legolas93 Convert to F2FS) but I still think yours is as important as anyone else's on here. However please just remember to give thanks if the work is not entirely your own. (Edit: Noted that @LiquidSmokeX64 has now edited his first post).

Well, yeah, it probably sounded harsher than I wanted. I'm sorry, I mean no disrespect and wish to support people who actively participate in Android development. On the other hand, I still don't think this work is original enough to justify its own thread. Anyway, mentioning @legolas93 in the OP and perhaps adding a message encouraging people to buy his app would be appropriate here.
To end this on a more friendly note, please, don't stop developing and bring us something awesome
I edited the post to encourage buying the app and am going to be intentionally late with the nightlies as well.
As far as development goes. I'd like to get into it again but I only know how to edit a few things in the build.prop, and updater script.
Besides that adding a few apps is no big deal lol.
I'd like to actually figure out the good stuff but sadly have no clue how to go about learning that stuff. I'm just a regular guy trying to do what I can for the community where I think I can be of some use.

OK. Back up and running. Found a tool i can use on windows to do this. Have credited accordingly, for this is almost no work on my part besides the thread.
So sweet deal. I'm open to suggestions for a better kernel if needed.
So what kernel does this new method use? I'm really curious, just can't see for myself

I just checked It. Yes it was a bad upload the sizes were wrong. I'm reuploading now and will verify its the right size this time
