Hey guys, Its the Rom you've all been waiting for. v2 darchdroid with OverClock!! This is pretty much an cyanogenmod build of mine in which i added some other source from other roms, such as kagudroid (thanks lox). If you guys wanna compile aosp or cyanogenmod or any other android source, you can compile off of this vendor tree: http://github.com/darchstar/vendor_cyanogen_heroc
Thanks ToastCFH and phhuson for Overclock, toastcfh and quietcblongs for their hard work with sensors and getting radio and everything to work with a .27 kernel way back when, Toastcfh for his kernel source, Cyanogen for android source, and Zippy-man for the DSUpdater and logcollector and Bugreporter. if i left anyone out, please, don't hesitate to let me know
NOTE: Yes you need the new Google ****s
YOU MUST WIPE!
Standard Order to flash this rom is first the Full Rom, then The Google ****s
HOW TO REPORT BUGS OR PROBLEMS? | kanged from cyanogen's guidelines for bugreporting, lol
- Was it a hard reboot? Get me the file "/proc/last_kmsg". adb pull /proc/last_kmsg
- Was it a soft reboot or a "boot loop"? Run "adb logcat" and get me the full output. Pastebin links preferred
- Please use the the bugreporter whenever possible!

BrieflyGeek is proud to release Frost ROM 4.0! Frost ROM is a HTC sense ROM built off of the newest 3.70 OTA. This is a sense rom custom themed with aosp elements and apps. This means HDMI, 4G and FM radio will be fully functional. No, this ROM does not include the sense launcher, or widgets, and never will. The goal of this project is to get us as close to stock android as possible while still being functional and staying on a sense framework. This ROM improves the functionality of your phone, while removing bloat and increasing speed. I have started a new thread to reduce clutter as well as starting over with a new approach in terms of Frosts looks. Enjoy!

-Mms will not send while wifi is enabled. Quickly disabling it through the power menu will send the mms.
-personalize in settings force closes. This is because you don't have rosie guys.
-using update script still. had trouble with updater script so until I fix it im sticking with the update. This means this will work on all amon recoveries and all clockwork recoveries except for 3.0 which uses only updater scripts.
-make sure to update your radios

Cumulative ChangeLog
Fixes:
Constant sync fix
Some users have been reporting constant sync issues. This is because of removing friendstream and peep which HTC framework syncs to. To fix the issue, flash this, which will restore the apps. I've updated to a properly signed package, so it should flash fine for you.
To those of you with voicemail notification issues. There is also an app in the market (SPC - Super Private Conversation) which you can block numbers with. All you need to do is download the app, add 9016 to your block list, and bye bye voicemail notifications. This should not effect you receiving voicemails at all, since its simply blocking the number through which the sms notification comes. If you're bothered by this notification try it out.
Changelog:
Changelog has now moved off XDA. Cleaning up a bit. You can find previous changelogs here.
FROST F.A.Q
This is a spot for frequently asked questions about Frost ROM. Please read the FAQ before asking your questions, as they might be answered. This will be updated with new FAQ once they come up.
Q: Does 4G, HDMI out and FM radio work on this rom?
A: Yes, all should be working.
Q: Apps are missing!!?
A: I have removed a lot of apps from the stock build. All can be found in the downloadable file called "removed apps"
Q: I still have the HTC in call screen, slide to answer
A: Correct, this rom is still a htc sense rom. These things are tricky to change as they are cooked into the actual base of the rom. For now, this is how its going to be.
Q: Will a alternate theme work on this rom?
A: Certainly, just remember I have made many edits to the framework which the theme has the potential to replace. Always nandroid. I have included some themes specifically compatible with the rom and will continue to support more.
Q: Help! I can't download apps from the market!?
A: This sometimes happens for one reason or another. If you have issues downloading from the market, open settings>applications>market and clear your market data. Then reboot. Should solve any market problems/slowness.
Q: Does this rom support a2sd?
A: Yes, since 2.1. It requires an ext partition on your sd card.
Q: Options in the "personalize" category in settings force close when trying to select them. (home wallpaper, scenes)
A: This is not a bug. This feature is alongside htcs launcher. These options WILL NOT work.

Ur the man...
Once I'm able to get netarchys new kernel downloaded I'll try it out and let you guys know. The kernels are universal tho, so if you flash one, make sure to flash the no havs and it will keep frosts ramdisk intact.
Edit: 4.2 added to add-ons, post 3. If anyone else tests it, let me know your results. Thanks!
I just want to confirm. I only need to do a full wipe when changing major (2-3, 3-4) versions and not the minor 3.0-3.1 versions, correct?
The email app isn't working with my yahoo. Is there anyway to use the HTC email app
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
No sir, as long as you wiped from 2+ to 3+ you should be good, as that is when the new build was released.
Oh, and I removed htc news from this one.. but if you flash over you will still have it. Not a big deal tho, if you like it, keep it. If not, titanium it.

Second question. Is the MattedBlue theme available yet for 3.1? The description still says 2.0+, but I didn't think it worked for 3.0 builds, since you changed quite a bit of the underlying framework.

No, it probably won't. I was hoping the creator would port it by now but no dice. I'll try n get to that soon as I know some of you guys liked the themes.
Next release in line is AOSP, then matted. I just gotta study for a bit.. haha
Basically this is as close to CM6 as we're gonna get while still having full functionality, right?
aosp keyboard
hey guys how can i change the keyboard, i tried downloading the remove apk but link is working. thanks in advance!!
Soo.. I know the title isn't very specific.. but I would like to throw a question in here and get some responses..
So.. WHAT excatly is MIUI compared to other ROMs?
To me, MIUI is "just" plain (AOSP?) Android with every single "GO"-App available. GO Launcher, GO SMS.. and so on.
So.. what does MIUI exactly have, that e.g. CM with every app changed to some GO-App doesn't have?
MIUI is skinned to kinda "copy" Iphone-style..sure.. but is that really all?
Benchmarks show there are some differences..
So I wonder what's left of MIUI if you install a MIUI based ROM and change any GO-App to another one?
________
'Cause most ppl say they love MIUI for how it looks like. But honestly.. I could also use stock Android with e.g. Motoblur and change the launcher and so on.. so why going through the hassle to root and install a completely new ROM?
Ty everyone
And yes, I used the search, but didn't find anything relevant.. maybe because "MIUI" & "GO" are a liiiiittle bit vague
We need to know the history. MIUI just want to be like IOS, but in the Android enviroment. AOSP is just a plain OS, CM was loaded witb tons of tweaks but the UI not that eyecandy. HTC? Good but too dark to be like IOS and bloated. So MIUI with the UI mimic IOS with slight modification came. For me it is another CM with the stress more on UI.

Ps sorry for bad English
Wasn't the first MIUI ROM was found accidently? IIRC, the dev passed away and his work was found and released. Maybe I'm thinking of something else?

A renaissance artist perhaps? MIUI is developed by a Chinese team and someone came across it and started translating it.
There's plenty of info and screenshots etc. over at http://www.miui-dev.com which is the site run by the translating team.
Essentially it does largely look to be making Android more iOS-like. It's based on FroYo AOSP (Gingerbread soon) but with a _lot_ of alterations. It shares a little bit of code with CM as far as the addins.
In my opinion MIUI is the first Android Distro because it proposes a completely different way of Android where other ROMs are just forks.
Miui is the simple face of ios with the power of android.
sent from my MIUI HTC HD2
MIUI has the most powerful and easiest theme engine..I really wish it was open source so others could use the theme engine..Its really that nice and simple to use..such a shame..
MIUI is so much better then stock android:
here's a list of apps that avalible only on miui:
Monitor (let you block apps and see how much data you have used)
Theme manager (no more zip's, really easy to theme stuff)
Better mms app
file mamanger
Miui gallery and camera
miui music
special lockscreen - much better the stock
folders - better the stock
quick settings on the notification bar
better phone app
easier to use setting's
miui wheater (avalible for all now)
some widgets like conatcs and etc...
if you chineese you can use the update app which auto update your phone to the latest version.
battery monitor
and much more that I might forgot
I'll go ahead and toss my two cents in...
Simple version-- I rooted my phone about 6 weeks ago, I flashed several roms in the first two days. (Cyanogen, Mikfroyo, Myns) Then I flashed MIUI. That was the last time I flashed a rom...
(If you want to know more, PM me and I'll give you the L O N G version of why MIUI is the best in my opinion)
Not a single one of the "GO" apps I've heard of including the two your mentioned are a part of MIUI. The post above me outlines a lot of the features but there is also so much more. I just discovered a feature the other day I never realized was there.
Try it, if you don't like it, NANDROID!! Make sure to grab yourself a few themes off of the MIUI forum. Again, I've installed one theme since I flashed MIUI ignoring the other 100 simply because what I have, Elite HD by bustadroid, is the best damn theme (period)
I just started to use Miui Camera for my Milestone today. Awesome fast!
Maybe can someone compile a list of Miui's apps and post links here?

MIUI isn't open source?? Why the heck did they do that? :-/
This ROM is a redistribution of the Android Open Source Project and Google software code that I have lightly modified to make as a daily driver for myself that I'm sharing with the community. This project doesn't have and won't focus on adding a ton of features and mods but instead focus on stability, and reliability so yes basically this is a stock like rom but not just stock my only efforts will be to make it run better, and be more polished, and complete. If you are looking for something more modified I'd suggest trying CyanogenMod or AOKP.
GOOGLE APPS ARE INCLUDED
DOWNLOAD:
http://d-h.st/pcu
If you have an error or something pops up I ask that before you post about it please make sure that you are running the ROM as provided. I cannot troubleshoot anything that is related to using other kernels, mods, or themes.
This ROM is basically like a stock rom of jelly bean so there is not a need for screen shots ........
Always remember that XDA started out as a great place and will remain a great place as long as we are great to each other anything used in this ROM is available upon request and feel free to use this as a base rom for any other project my ROM is un-branded just give me some mention .......
WANT TO CUSTOMIZE THIS ROM READ THIS:

Small update adds recents clear all button fixes launcher wallpapers and cleaned out apps that can be found in play store
I might give this rom a try as overall I like 4.2 and kinda feel like the roms full of extra features are just too bulky for my tastes but feel like 4.2 could be better from a stability and performance standpoint. Been looking for a simple rom like this that just addresses the core problems with 4.2. It'll probably be Friday or later though as that's when my vacation starts.

I will be compiling AOSP's master branch (almost) nightly. This branch is, at times, very unstable and can have many issues. Most issues cannot be fixed without upstream changes.
I guarantee no stability or the fact that your device will work. It's your choice to use this. Don't blame me for something that goes wrong (even though nothing probably will).
You will need to flash Gapps in order to use the Play Store. You can get Gapps from http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip

1. Reboot into recovery.

Nice to see another pure aosp out there! Too bad about tweaks though, some tweaks I just can't live without anymore. That aside I'd rather have barebones over bloat
Thanks for this great rom!

I may make another ROM at a later time that is a tweaked master branch, but for now, this is staying pure AOSP. I haven't seen any frequently maintained master branch builds, and I think that the n7 community needs that. It's nice to have an up-to-date build of what Google is working on.
And remember, if there's a super awesome feature you think it oughta have, maybe AOSP will merge your contribution!

Features I was thinking of were mostly addons & some performance some ui tweaks which I don't think an aosp purist would likely agree on:
Cpu/ I/O memory management
Battery bar (miui, not a big break away from stock but not important)
Quick Settings toggles: extra buttons
Nav bar button editing
Kill app on long press of back button
Recent apps clear all & memory display
Battery statusbar options (I've always used %)
Statusbar clock settings (right/centre)
Some of those are purely subjective but things like kill app on long press, QS and navigation button settings should be built into the aosp source IMO. I get your philosophy behind this and I don't mind the missing features but I don't think I can keep pure aosp for very long after being spoiled with so many feature rich roms over the last few years
There are many people who would appreciate this though so I hope it gets the respect it deserves. Thank you!

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll consider those if I ever work on another ROM. In the meantime, let's keep this thread fully focused on AOSP and this ROM. I really do appreciate the suggestions.

Is this a nightly of Googles stock rom?

Essentially, yes. As I am sure you probably understand, each git repo can have multiple branches and Google creates a branch after each stable release. However, they also have a working branch that they push to frequently (many times per day) with changes called "master" and this is a nightly build of that branch. So, this is like the stock ROM, except it is on their working branch, not their 4.2.2 branch. In the build files, this is referred to as "OpenMaster", and Android version 4.2.2.2.2.2.2.2.2.2.
You'll notice some features that aren't in the stock ROM and you'll notice some (but not all) of the features reported to be in the 4.3 ROMs.
This branch tends to be slightly less stable, but it also is very interesting to use. I use it as my daily driver and have for awhile. There are some bugs, but they tend to get squashed within a few days.
If you want to see a changelog, check AOSP review.
I have two more questions:
- How can I get notifications about updates?
- How can I build the Master branch for my Galaxy Nexus?
Oh and btw. good rom! It is really interesting to test those new features and have some bugs.

- How can I get notifications about updates?

Sorry, but at this time, you'll need to check the downloads page daily (probably around 10PM GMT-5 I'll have done it if I will) to see if I've posted a new build for the day. Maybe I will later make an app and put it in the Play Store and it will notify you when a new build is posted.

You'll need to sync AOSP and it includes the source for GNex. You'll need to download the proprietary files separately and unzip them. If you have questions, PM me. Also, http://source.android.com/source/building.html may be of some help.

Thanks! I literally just synced the source and built it, but thank you.
Getting a late start on today's build. It should be up in about 1 hour.
Edit: It's up.

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll consider those if I ever work on another ROM. In the meantime, let's keep thread fully focused on AOSP and this ROM. I really do appreciate the suggestions.

I have respect for the stock aosp. If I could pick only one feature though it would be one in forgot to mention "statusbar brightness slider" I use it so much I forget it's there.
I can live without those though, I'm glad to see openmaster working on the n7 and I'm going to try to live e without the frills! Thank k's for this pure rom,

Check out this handy tool. I'm usually anti widget but this lil tool is amazing for setting a brightness slider anywhere on the screen.
I've used it since way back before the status bar mod was available and I still use it pretty often if the ROM doesn't have it included.
Can be configured I'm about every way possible.

OpenMaster with 4.3 (officially versioned as 4.3.2.1.000.000) is available for download. Grap the latest nightly here.
SuperUser is almost definitely not working; additionally I cannot confirm how well the gapps package works with 4.3.
This release is 4.3 plus what you see merged on AOSP Code Review.
This build was made with the 4.2.2 proprietary binaries. A build with the 4.3 proprietary binaries will be released later today.
Edit: The build available (AOSP-OpenMaster-kalaker-grouper-20130724-fixed_binaries.zip).
IMPORTANT: As of 20130724, the OpenMaster builds are based on Android 4.3. With Google's official release of Android 4.3 for the Nexus 7 (grouper), a new bootloader, version 4.23, was released. OpenMaster builds after 20130724 have only been tested with the new bootloader. No support will be provided for users of the older bootloaders.
Just to be clear apps like adaway won't work since it requires root?

That is correct.
Is this JSS15J or JWR66V?

It's neither. It's not 4.3. It's newer.
So this rom not rooted can we just flash the updated supersu?
