Root [PORT][ROM][WIP]Party Time JB by Superboy4444

This may be a stupid question, but since I dont have the device I wouldnt know, but is this a true JB rom. or just ICS with added goodies?
 
Off topic but anyway to get a classic looking jelly bean lockscreen? Thanks :)

BTW I LOVE THE ROM!! :D
 
I got a 2000mAh battery for my reverb...the stock battery is 1700mAh, the s3 has 2100mAh...my battery lasts so long now!
 
It is a long painstaking process...all I can say is progress is being made, I can't give you an eta, but after we get it, we might not even be able to port it because it requires a custom boot.img
 
I'm putting 2.0 on reverb all things root within the next 24 hours depending on upload speed...I will not be porting as I honestly just don't want to take the time and effort to be under appreciated...I have no problem with anyone else porting, and thank you to everyone who does appreciate the work I put into this...I will be continuing to monitor these forums however! Also, just so you guys can create a stock rom...someone with stock(preferably rooted) phone needs to use cwm and make a backup, then go into your backup folder from phone and rename system.tar.a folder to system.tar then copy to desktop from here you need to go back into the backup folder and copy your boot.img to your desktop...now make a manifest and meta-inf for your phone (you could probably use one from any Rom on this forum) now select all three folders on your desktop, right click, and 7 zip/add to archive (have 7 zip installed on computer) choose archive type as zip...name it stock rom.zip and click continue or whatever...voila stock rom created

Reason being is if they did that then the rom wouldn't be a custom rom at that point, especially if you start dumping stock crap back into it...

except where everything on this rom is stock? you pull it off your phone, mod what files you wish to mod and then push it back. thats the definition of a stock based rom, which this is.

my suggestion is to take teh stock rom of this device and mod it, youll have less scaling issues with displays.

good job superboy4444 on the port man. keep up the good work :)

Exactly! Except I think it is super weird that the camera doesn't work

It works only if you have voice cmd enabled. You say cheese but it has a huge 15 second delay. It also doesn't have a capture button due to it being sized differently. Same with dialer and messaging. Whats weird is you cant get stock camera to work. Ive renamed it, took all libs and still nothing.

What will be in v2.0? :D

I am working on enabling 4g on the reverb, it has the antenna capabilities but just doesn't come with it...i don't know if this is going to have any effect on the rush community but in 2.0 i added the crt tv off screen lock animation and i upgraded beats audio, i also included some gapps with this one to make it a little easier!

I never said this wasn't "Stock-based", what I said is it wouldn't be a custom rom if you start dumping stock crap back into it, the stuff in this rom did not come from stock, if you read the OP it states that parts of this rom come from Android 4.0, 4.1, and 4.2 so with that being said it's definately not stock when it comes to most of the stuff that's in it...

no thats exactly what this is. someone took the stock rom from the reverb and started to add mods and tweaks to it. i assure you if you removed everything that was on a stock reverb from this rom and left over just the custom parts it wouldnt even come close to booting.

all in all this is what should be done for teh rush of grabbing stock and making a quick odex/deodex'd base. you can use dsixdias kitchen to convert the system.img from my stock odin tar into files (dont trust the kitchen to actually make the zip it will fail horribly). from there youll need to make your updater script (not just copy and paste some random one from some random place) you can use this guide here :). from there you should be able to start looking into modding the rom.

if you need any assistance you know how to find our irc :)
 
Well I had used Linux to mount the system.IMG slayer72 put out before, and copied all the files out, and made the zip, but I fail at making updater-scripts, I made a new one, but IMA sit on it this time.
 
My updater script looks something like this:
ui_print("");
ui_print("");
ui_print("----------------------------------");
ui_print(" Return to Stock ");
ui_print("----------------------------------");
ui_print("Thanks to Slayer72 for his sysdump");
ui_print(" Sorry bro ");
ui_print("----------------------------------");
ui_print("----------------------------------");
ui_print("");
ui_print("");

show_progress(0.85, 90);
run_program("/sbin/mount", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p17", "/system");
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p17", "0", "/system");
ui_print("Returning to Stock")
show_progress(0.400000, 0);
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
ui_print("Setting Permissions Dude!");
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/system");
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0755, "/system/addon.d");
set_perm_recursive(0, 2000, 0755, 0755, "/system/bin");
set_perm(0, 3003, 02750, "/system/bin/netcfg");
set_perm(0, 3004, 02755, "/system/bin/ping");
set_perm(0, 2000, 06750, "/system/bin/run-as");
set_perm_recursive(1002, 1002, 0755, 0440, "/system/etc/bluetooth");
set_perm(0, 0, 0755, "/system/etc/bluetooth");
set_perm(1000, 1000, 0640, "/system/etc/bluetooth/auto_pairing.conf");
set_perm(3002, 3002, 0444, "/system/etc/bluetooth/blacklist.conf");
set_perm(1002, 1002, 0440, "/system/etc/dbus.conf");
set_perm_recursive(0, 2000, 0755, 0644, "/system/vendor");
set_perm_recursive(0, 2000, 0755, 0755, "/system/xbin");
set_perm(0, 0, 06755, "/system/xbin/su");

show_progress(0.200000, 10);
unmount("/system");


^^This is what I have so far^^
I grabbed Shabbypenguin's CWM and split it, went to ramdisk and found recovery.fstab to get /system location
I believe my permission s are set correctly and I have nothing more then what's needed
Can anyone verify I done this correctly?
