Flashed 7. No issues, but I've only been using it for a few hours
The status bar and quickpanel look great, and everything runs very smoothly
Did not get to test MMS yet. Ran Quadrant a few times on the first boot, performance/deadline @ 1.8GHz averaged 3004-3050 total score.

So far, everything's working well, great job again!

Thanks! :D

I need to do some more tweaking... and I need to find out if that black background image that doesn't let you see exact call time and duration of call is in framework-res or in contacts.apk...
 
Thanx Skinny, i will flash 7 when i get home, and thankyou for the info about Texas

Welcome! and anytime, I live in South Texas, its a great area because its also really safe, no tornadoes, no earthquakes, and we're far enough away from the Gulf of Mexico that hurricanes don't do too much damage except knock down a few trees... which do damage. Never anything major like Louisiana or Galveston Island, which is a great beach to go to, only a couple hours away. Great place to live :)


I think there's a website with reviews on cities and places to live.... in fact there should be one .-.
 
Might wanna check your SD card and make sure its functioning right, I've always been able to screenshot, even now and I'm running 6.2. Try backing everything up to your computer and reformatting it



It was the SD card, it was full. I got a new SD card, re-downloaded 6.2, and Hotfix/ Update to HaloBean 6.3, every things working fine, looks and runs great. The only thing that I will miss is notification toggle`s at the bottom of pull-down, I got really used to that in 4.3. Great job.

I'm trying to learn how to move the quickpanel just underneath the JB time panel, but above the notifications... I had to move it back up because it was causing issues with the status bar (the actual bar). It got "sticky", like when trying to slide it up it gets stuck in the middle of the screen or sometimes when pressing a toggle, even if you don't have the "close statusbar on toggle" option checked, the status bar runs away from you as if it were scared of your finger :(

Its some smali code that controls where it goes, I'm trying to learn smali to be able to push this even MORE towards Jelly Bean and possibly KitKat later on...
 
Do you home work 1st then play. Lol. I swear dude, I've been to 2 different stores, almost bought the sequent, almost bought the new Warp, I can't leave my phone. ******ed right!? I love her phone. She has jellybean, and it's fast! I dunno!?????

Not too bad

I know what you mean! I was debating the S4... but this phone has come so far! I'm completely happy with it now thanks to the talented devs here... And now that DM got the Warp I sent him CM10 dev will continue! HaloBean has become my daily driver... Downloading 7 as soon as the calling issue is confirmed resolved!

On a lighter note (yes, that was sarcasm...) Skinny, I've been digging through contacts.apk as well as framework-res and a bunch of XML and smali trying to find where the call log shows '3 hours ago' instead of the time... still no luck...:confused:

I think I know where that is, recent_calls.xml in contacts.apk. But that's not the actual issue I'm trying to fix... thats meant for a short sweet simple time reference (sorry for the alliteration, too focused on English...)

The timestamp I'm talking about is when you go to recent calls, click on a call, and it opens up another window that looks like this:


There's supposed to be a timestamp with call duration and exact time and date of the call, its in black text on stock (I know because I checked on my mom's stock Warp) so its a hard color code to find. I've found references to the color code in framework-res as a secondary color, but I don't know which out of all the black references it is...

also, its an aesthetic issue with calling, I've fixed it though... but I don't recommend downloading 7 anymore since I'm gonna add more tweaks to the rom.

Damn you're really attached to either the phone or the community ;) what kind of phone did you get your wife? And I'm going for the S2 because it's fast and has a massive amount of roms... but I'm also gonna try to buy another Warp so I can use it later on to dev for y'all. And hopefully help with CM10 when I get better at this.




BTW. How can I get my Busybox to install 1.20.2? I want it!!!!!!


just have it install to the preselected install path (it might be system/xbin or.system/bin) and done :) I need to update busybox...




And 7 is liking my 64 gig card! Idk???

:confused: that's not weird at all! :D
No that is weird... maybe it's just something I did to the system that made it work?
 
Just added more battery and performance tweaks to the rom, HB7 RC1 coming later this week! I'm about to work on the crappy audio volume...

EDIT: Sounds boosted 180% sucessfully

EDIT 2: Someone remind me to update QuickPic later on... I'm gonna forget again

I've flashed 7 and don't notice any change in volume.
What are you basing the 180% on? Thanks!

Also, I noticed that the Earpiece App no longer works with the ROM. Could it be the new Audio Engines?? It worked for me with 4.3, with significant increase to the earpiece for phone calls. I've tried it on 5 and 6, but it doesn't work anymore, neither 7.

The ringtones themselves are much louder... and there's a chance that that's the reason why the Earpiece app doesn't work. Hmm.... I'll have to see what I did in the changelog.
 
So the color is definitely in the framework-res.apk... secondary color, I'm gonna have so much finding it...

So now I'm on a hunt to find the right color reference... and change it from black to white. I can really use all the help I can get...
 
Wow! You're really committed Skinny. I applaud you. I can't wait to see these....leaked....kitkat themes ;). I understand the desire to move away from the warp. I would do it myself, if I weren't so darned content with the price to performance ratio. I mean really, who has upwards of 300 dollars to spend on a phone anyway, right?

Anyway, thanks for all the hard work man.

Yeah, that's why I'm considering getting a refurbished phone, instead of a brand new one. I don't have the kind of money to buy new lol
