It stock with crap taken out and he added seeder which has been proven by people much higher up on the food chain to do absolutely nothing on 4.0+ devices as android changed how it rendered things at that point the app was originally developed for GB and the guy who built the app said he has no idea why it would affect higher versions aka its in peoples heads. What else do you want to know lol.

its just stock,but with a bunch of crap removed and a couple things added...all the features are in the OP under Things ive done.
will probably add some screenies but i actually have mine running with the 23 toggle mod which is themed...so if i upload screenshots of my setup,it wont be accurate to what you will see when you flash it yourself....but once i have to reflash,ill take a few and upload them so everyone can see.

Can you advise of what languages have been removed?
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

all languages except for english

OK,SO....about seeder.apk
I just recently in the past month got this device...my last device (HTC EVO) was not lucky enough to ever see a official ICS release..only unstable ports of CM9.so ive only used GB based roms for the past 2 years..I ALSO have a full time job and am a full time parent,so forgive me so not keeping up on every detail.lol
if seeder is useless on the 4.x platform,so be it..if you know how to flash a ROM,id guess you also know how to remove an apk from a .zip file.If you find it useless,just open it up and delete it..
Next time i release a different version,ill remove seeder from it..but as of now,upload speeds are too slow for me to want to upload another JUST to have seeder removed...sorry for my ignorance and thanks for the new info.. i will update the ROM in the near future.

Please see post #10 & #12....

Direct quote from lambgx02 (creator of seeder)
This is basically how i feel about the seeder app on 4.x or later....
direct quote from lambgx02
"I had no idea it would take off like this and was shocked when I saw it Thursday morning. I'm in the awkward position now of explaining why it seems to work for some people, and not for others, especially given the fact Dalvik doesn't have references to /dev/random as of ICS. Theories abound, but it looks like it might be an issue of polling the UI for input events when the entropy pool drops (which never happens so long as rngd is running).
I'm doing this as a hobby. I'm a *nix admin by trade, and can only spend time working on this stuff on evenings and weekends, and the last few weeks have been kinda nuts.
I want to stress to everyone that:
a) It doesn't work the way I thought it did on later Android builds, but it does reduce latency for me and many others even on these builds,
b) I'm offering (and always will offer) Seeder for free to everyone on XDA,
c) Like I say in the market description, if anyone has purchased it and it isn't working, PLEASE email me for a refund (and let me know what device you're on if you're willing)"
I notice a little bit of a lag reduction (in my head??MAYBE....)
speculation........

Regardless of the seeder vs no seeder debate, it's always good to see a new face around the forums putting out roms for the skyrocket. For that, thank you OP, and welcome to the skyrocket forum. We can be a bit brash at times, but just remember, it's done out of love

OK guys real quick before you download. this is a rom that i built for 4 devices evo included of course. now i dont have a evo and this is my first time building a rom for it, but all in all it works great and very stable for doing it blind. now you all know aamikam we work together on a lot of stuff and this is one of the things we are working on together... the rom that is up right now is only my work but he is working on some things for it as i type and i will be updating to his version, and we will update as we fix and optimize things as usual.....
so a little info on what this rom is... it is based off of HTC Runnymede with sense 3.5 and gingerbread 2.3.5. it has a lot of new features plus it looks awesome atleast in my opinion.... the runnymede has a wvga display so nothing needed to be resized which is great some of you will think that things look big but they are not you are just used to the modded sized roms to fit our screen....

Pros and Cons
Pros: Pretty fast and stable
Nice clean ICS like theme
Fairly light weight and not changed to much
Highest stock overclock
Cons: Unsupported at the moment due to ownership change, V6 hopefully coming soon
Doesn't have as many tweaks as some of the other roms, this could also be a pro for some people
Bottom line
Probably the simplest of the Roms I have tried, SCV5 is nice and stable, making it a good first choice, the theme is not too heavy, so it feels closer to stock than others. Many others are much more de-blurred and have more removed Motorola stuff. If you want a fast stable, but not to far off of stock ROM, Supercharged is the way to go. User Rdavisct has taken this over as one of his many projects and judging by his other work, I think we will all be in for a treat when SCV5 is released. (No Pressure Rdavisct if you are reading this)

Pros and Cons
Pros: Great ICS like theme
Inverted color settings is great
Fast
Debloated and Deblurred
Cons: not much, a little less stable than supercharged, I have had a few reboots
Bottom Line
Much further from stock than Supercharged, fast, and beautifully themed, this is one of my favorites. Lithium would not be a good choice for those of you who are fans of all the Motorola Blur stuff, but for most it is great. The overclock is set at 1100, making it faster than stock, but still stable, and the removal of bloatware helps even more with the speed. There is a large emphasis on the theme, which is good for most people. It is ICS like, with blue icons and status bar clock, it also has the useful pull down options that are in most roms. The inverted colors in the menus and keyboard look fantastic, and they make it easier on the eyes at night. There are still a few places where colors have not been inverted, such as the battery use page, but in general the theme is flawless. CWM on boot is enabled by default, but can be disabled by flashing the standard removal zip. Lithium is one of the best roms available for our device, and I only expect it to continue getting better
It might be helpful for the reader to know what launcher comes as the default with any given ROM. Launcher preference is extremely important to some. My two cents. Good luck with the thread.
The End.

Yep, i'm getting there. I didn't actually mean to post it yet. I hit post instead of preview. I will add both links and screenshots, thanks for the suggestions though. glad to see people are interested in this
Mirrors of supercharged, sonya, and lithium are now up, uploading the rest as we speak
Edit: I will upload more tomorrow, I have to get work done today and it is slowing down my internet too much
What a great idea to summarize all available roms for the Atrix 2 in one thread, Thanks!!!. I just want to suggest that perhaps it would be good to add the installation method of the rom, not the instructions, only something like this: " Lithium --> Install Method: CWM Restore.
VictoryRom --> Install Method: CWM Flasheable zip."

Glad you are interested. I was shocked that no one had done this, so I thought I would take it on. God point on adding instructions, I will do so. that is once I try all the roms more and get full reviews up! IF you have a favorite, or reviews of any feel free to post them, I want this to be a group effort.
Mirrors are now up
Thanks for being patient. Mirrors for all our major roms are now up. I also included the flash to stock script in case anyone needs it. download speeds are around 3 MB/s for me!
Thanks! Very Helpful
Seems to have slowed down? no?

Do you mean the Mirrors, or me? The mirrors might if many people download, Google drive is new so I don't know if they would throttle, it could also go down just due to Google doing maintenance. If you mean, you are right, I am getting back to this, but I have been rally busy the last few days, tonight I am going to write up the Sonya v3 review and flash something else to try for tomorrow and I'll try to do one a night until I'm done. Sorry for the delay, it will be done before next week. I'm just crazy busy right now.

Thank's!! that fastboot script has saved me thozen of times . By the way i dont see the Victory Rom maybe you should put it in the list and in Google Drive, in my opinion it's an excellent rom, for people who likes the moto blur stuff it's awesome because it's fast and super stable and it's not a cwm backup (for those having problems to restore cwm backups)
Thanks for this, great idea.

Glad you are interested. I was shocked that no one had done this, so I thought I would take it on. God point on adding instructions, I will do so. that is once I try all the roms more and get full reviews up! IF you have a favorite, or reviews of any feel free to post them, I want this to be a group effort.

i'm having serious inconsistent quadrant scores, i know this isn't a huge deal but i'm curious to why. I wish i could upload it right now but my work network is tricky with large uploads.
A recommendation? 360 Launcher is heavier on RAM usage than LauncherPro? Considering making a ROM with LauncherPro as default launcher? Just a suggestions.

Great looking ROM so far man.
Quadrant will remain inconsistent all the time. Try tegrak at 1000 GHz and make the minimum 1000.GHz

yeah once i get the kinks worked out ill do a launcher pro version, i have used launcher pro up until i discovered 360, and i'm a very visual person so being able to alter everything is right up my ally
Well! Idea is that we can have two seperate versions of each ROM or have the ROM have both launchers. 360 looks elegant, but LauncherPro is smooth. Hmm.

FYI: I prefer ADW.Launcher.
My Launcher Requirements:
1) The free version has to meet the following requirements (no paid apps).
2) Home Screens must have 5-rows of icons (5x5), and at least 5 screens.
3) App Drawer must have 5-rows and smooth-scroll up/down (no paging).
4) App Drawer must "remember" where it was last scrolled to (not always top).
5) Widgets must be stretchable to 5-rows (this is where FREE Launcher Pro fails).
Someone recommended Nemus on here but I haven't checked it out yet.

I like Nemus, but sometimes it's eye candy tends to somehow slug it down in terms of performance.

Be patient, and continue developing based on what you want from your ROM. If you use it as your daily driver, you will probably discover the areas that could use refinement.
Your ROM would also benefit from a name, so people can refer to it.
I'm down for FTL Launcher, lightweight and works
Changed it up a bit
I'm using Hewett's ROM with some changes i made to the framework with files from GOV2 or photoshopped existing png images. also a different layout from the launcher, here's a few screen shots

[ROM][11/22/12]5.07 Dcw Simplistic Rom Version 1.24 Final

This is my first try at making a rom. I used 5.07 "more" stock odex version from Captain Throwback as a base. I put this through the kitchen and added a few other things as well as removed many apps that are not needed.
What I Did:
app2sd
moved dalvik to sd
added busy box and busy box run parts
fixed apple patent "app association" I think. Let me know if it doesn't work
Removed a lot of stock apps and widgets(bloatware)
added dsp manager
added native screenshot (power+home)
Deodexed rom
Zipaligned apks
Added task killer tweak from Dsixda's Kitchen
removed boot animation
Underworld kernel v8 SBC without HAVS
Did a little theming.
Advanced Power Menu
Quick Settings w/ Recent Apps
Probably more that I can't remember.
Again this is my first rom so be kind. Any questions just ask. I did this rom by taking what I liked from other roms and combining it into my own thing.
I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone!​ Flash at your own risk! I recommend doing a full wipe for best install​
Many thanks go out to these guys. For without them this would not be possible. If you feel you're name should be here, please let me know.

Yeah I agree! Amazing how well a ROM runs without all the tinkering and tweaks. Don't get me wrong tweaks can be nice...but running a somewhat "virgin" ROM has its advantages. Apps open right up and there seems to be little to no lag as far as how "smooth" this ROM flows.

...But it works, and is useful if you don't want to clear all of your notifications, just a few. Ca1ne had a thread where I think he has quick settings and Swype to clear. If so can I request it be baked into the Rom? People don't have to use it if they don't like it, as they will still have the clear button, just nice option for those like myself that want the mod.

There is no swiping notifications for 5.07 yet. When it comes available I will more than likely bake it into this rom. Thanks for checking it out.
really liking this rom
upon first boot i had 400 mb available space on my internal storage. the download bar colors are really cool, all the multi-colors are pretty awesome.
can you put back the htc widget under settings that control silent, vibration, ring ? i like to keep the bluetooth, gps,wifi and mode toggle on my desktop.
the gps icon is missing on the pull down menu.
nice job on the font and the red divider lines and over scroll:good: in the menu are cool too
Version 1.05 should be up later today. Testing it while at work today. If all goes well will try to upload it tonight, or tomorrow.

[ROM] Glorious Overdose v5 with Aroma [4/15/13]

The beast is back....and now with amarullz's Aroma Installer thanks to the contribution of demkantor. This way, you can pick and choose what you want with Glorious Overdose....a Sidekick user's dream come true!
I took the liberty of updating the theme to make it more Jelly Bean-ish....and best of all....all menus are easy on the eyes. Now, I have included the stock web browser so you don't need to install it via Aroma.
Yes...the file is big. It is because of the optional apps included. Remember, you can pick and choose what you want. As always, I take no responsibility if you happen to brick your device.
I decided to roll it back to v2's base. The only changes I made was updating the apps and including build.prop tweaks and rpmmcormick's init.d scripts which he cleaned up using various sources. Exit_Only also contributued to this project.

No need to credit me, I just spend 1hr organizing 20 or so sh-script files. Didn't write a line of code, deleted a bunch of duplicate ones after merging files, then re-organized and added comments. Thanks though.
Looks good. I did like your Redux menu-theming though (trans-black matching the widgets). Any chance on porting that, plus maybe adding some color to the Settings-Menu (even blue text rather than gray makes a big difference next to the gray icons... I've seen small colored icons I like in other phones, but I hate the big colored icons I've seen in other sidekick roms). Oh, maybe you could just tint the settings icons blue so it would match the power-menu.
Anyway, the GOv2 base is as stable/bugfree as a stock KJ2, and the tweaks you added to it bring it up to date with _most_ of Sams changes, and none of the bugs. This should serve the last few users of this phone well. Only thing left to do is change how it looks. I don't expect any new tweaks to help us, unless someone wants to work on zram or something (I don't even know what that is, but it speeds up the ROM for my AdventVega JB I guess).
Thanks Ric!

Here is the weird thing about GOV v2. Once you touch the framework-res.apk, it results in the jump key bug. I did try to update the look, but figured it best to leave it alone....unless enough people want me to change it and then I'll use ay0teddy's jump key mod.

Ok, now I'm confused on this jump-key mod.... I have never used the jump-key in landscape, and it has always worked fine for me, however, I prefer PreHome anyway (thanks for finding that gem) so I changed my jump-key to a search-key simply by copying over the keyboard.kl file from Redux in to GOv2.
1) Does the jumpkey work in landscape with GOv2's untouched framework-res.apk?
2) Isn't PreHome + keyboard.kl changing the jump-key to a search-key a valid solution for everyone?

You should add ezlauncher seems smooth an looks really good.
Not much customizing settings such as themes but it has a really nice app drawer with a task manager
Should give it a look over before though might not be your style

all right no promises as my phone is still... well its not a brick... but i cant flash so i might as well use it to build a house...
anyway ill have it fixed soon im sure but for now here you all go!
And although i looked over this a bunch im sure i missed some things, i can do some cleaning tomorrow and help build a much more full setup. this should boot and flash as you tell aroma to do, but if it doesnt it cant harm anything just wouldnt work, let me know if there are issues and i can fix it!
as always,
Happy Flashing!
opps, wrong download!!! give me a minute....
Edit2
Ricandroid sent me what I needed and now my phone works!
So I flashed the rom and it works.... sorta, you need to run aroma and flash the rom only, then reenter aroma and choose skip rom and flash your mods, this is far from ideal and I will fix it soon, but I need some sleep so it will have to be tomorrow, sorry guys!
sorry only had a half hour or so to work on this, im uploading now, currently the aroma package seems to work fine, allowing you to install whatever youd like. there for sure needs to be more cleaning up of this i just have the time at the moment.
@RicAndroid, feel free to add to op and use this for now if you want to get it out there, i can help you build up Glorious Overdose V5.1 if you would like as this is great but has room for improvements. a little more sweat and tears and this ROM will be super sweet!
@ everyone else, consider this a preamble to the best ROM yet for this phone, RicAndoird is on his way to bringing this phone back to life once again!
...internet is slow right now, about half an hour until upload completes....
ok took the dogs for a walk and im back with the link, here ya go!

This rom is amazing, and the aroma installer is beautiful! Thanks for the work!
Installer is stuck here , is it safe to do a battery pull?
