I must admit, i finally got my hands on a copy of blackice (the old gingerbread rom) and im loving every second of it. My 4g is finally speed happy. Only using 80mb of ram? Bah who could ever say no to that. I was on whatever the latest cm (i think 11, unless thats nighlies) is and i was happy, but always felt i could get more juice out of my phone. Idk why the creator ever abandoned it. If i knew who he was id give him a nice little donation just for the work thus far. If anyone knows point him this way

And I've browsed that thread before but the links are down. They work from xda's end but the devs links are no more. I scavenged the internet until I came across a torrent for it with only 2 seeds lol. Definitely worth the treasure hunt.
Do you know of they've made anything else for the inspire/desire? Or better yet, how I can get voice working on this one? Like voice control, and voice-to-text messaging? That's the only feature I miss.
Nevermind that last question :foot in mouth: playstore already answered it. Lol. Now to find a lightweight app for that. Thanks again

No...but I will give it a test run. The only thing is, I don't believe this one will be hacked to be able to call over 3G, like the one I have now.
Will test now..

As most of us, I have been following this since the leak this morning and we now have a flashable release over at AndroidPolice.com (http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/05/16/download-leaked-gingerbread-rom-for-the-htc-thunderbolt/)
I am personally waiting until das BAMF comes out with their next version based on GB just so I don't have to download and configure another rom within days, but again, congrats to Jcase.

Ha yeah...Adrynalyne said it was a trojan to free up bandwidth for dev's to download it. The original "leak" was not flashable and people would have messed up their phones if they jumped the gun too early. Probably did himself and the rest of the community a BIG favor (no threads titled "Help I tried to flash the leak and screwed up my phone")
Has anyone tried this yet with 4G? Will this work with Titanium Backup so I do not have to reload all my info and apps?

It just hit within the last 30 minutes or so. Right now it may just be a trial and error thing. Just do a nandroid backup of your current rom and start experimenting. Let us know

Gflam 1 of the co developers of this is my rom partner. We did a rom called sourcery together. i finally put recovery on today and was suppose ot work on getting him the info to make it compatible. But he was busy. Ill post as soon as its supported. and i do some testing for him.
That be cool.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Wow, that would be awesome! Not yet officially supported on our phone according to link. Seems like it would be pretty buggy running on SD.
Somewhat on topic, this is one of the reasons I got an LG phone. I work with VMware products in my job and they've partnered with LG to work on giving users the ability to run a business and personal accounts simultaneously through virtualization. Not 100% sure if it is actually a whole other ROM but it looks like it from the demo. If it's true virtualization for phones, I could see you being able to run multiple ROMs.
Check it out. Might be another option when it comes out:
http://communities.vmware.com/commu.../lg-vmw-partnership-follow-up-with-demo-video
The dev on this sent me an email and said they are working on this device and one of his guys is testing it out now. It should be available soon. The dev was also very helpful and very quick to respond to my email.

Pics of this rom and pics of cm7 are practically pointless as I'm sure almost everyone themes them up... That's why lots of people use those two roms, cause you can change out the look so easily. Pretty much look up miui and you will get a very different result in most images lol. And the fact that you can add your own launcher of choice to make it look "less iPhoneish"

I understand what you just wrote, im just asking him to post pictures of his rom so people can know that it is infact working T_T and because he said he put in new features it would be nice to display. I know it looks rather the same, but he should still put it up. thats my opinion.

I've always recommended Multiupload.com since it mirrors out to mediafire and about 6 or 8 other sites so that there are multiple copies. Plus it often allows direct download from multiupload so that folks don't have to deal with captchas on a tiny android screen.

I have been a fan of MultiUpload for a while. It's very nice. I have to admit it's the only one I've used because I also have private hosting, but I've never had a problem. I love that it gives multiple options so that if one site doesn't work with a particular browser another one probably will.
EDIT: On topic, I was hoping to use a MIUI.us build rather than an MIUIANDROID build, but I might just try out your build. Other than the 4-way reboot which you've bundled in yourself, do you know of any other significant differences in the MIUI.us versions as opposed to MIUIANDROID?

It's great advice, thanks!
From my understanding, the only difference is some of the English translation verbiage that is used. But, there might be more behind the scenes things that I just don't know about. I have used them both and find them all to be reliable.
I like to see screen caps just because some devs change colors of there brews. either CM or Miui... I know Miui is easy to theme via the themes online. But still. Always nice to see before hand.
OP updated with 2 new features. Enjoy!
