Root [Boost Mobile] [ROM] n00b (B10 based) VIII.II FULL Install 1/23/2013

I obtained permission from Hroark to include twrp recovery in the Easy Root zip (and in future versions of n00b). You can flash easy root on my ROM safely. You can find it here, enjoy! (look for the twrp zip)

just to confirm, this Easy Root zip can be flashed either on CWM or stock recovery? so I'm good to go having n00b VI with CWM?

yes, easy root can be flashed either on stock recovery or cwm recovery (or twrp recovery), so you can go to twrp recovery from any of those using the easy root twrp zip from the simple root thread.
 
Ok mrbobo I've been following your instructions for when you install a new version of your rom. Ive been having a pretty smooth time with noobVI but like the pervious versions I've noticed that after a few days Ive found the keyboard (either the default or swift) to start to lag a few seconds before popping up.

I found the rebooting tends to help but any clue what could cause it? I don't really have any roms that I would think would cause or many apps installed.
 
Hello,
Maybe I'm making a useless post...sorry.
I almost don't know what to expect to improve in a next version of n00b. I wish just "flashlight button", because more stability and speed is what we already have. I am using Root Toolbox waiting for "flashlight button".
After several days of heavy use didn't find any bug.
Thanks a lot.

No it's not a useless post. The reason why your flashlight button doesn't work is because of the Warp and ZTE.Nobody has been able to get the LED to come on except as a widget or shortcut like rootdim.apk, which is what I use. I actually went into the notification toggle settings and removed the flashlight button because it will probably never work unfortunately.
 
Here's a screenie for my flashlight solution using rootdim shortcuts. One for "on" and one for "off". No need to open an app :D They're at the bottom in center.

Sic rom Mr. Bobo, have a small problem. I can't figure out whats my battery. Its the cell standby using 35 percent, anyone know of a app that finds what app is using what is draining the battery the most. Also reading much about the smartassv2, what does it do, and do I need it? I have noob IV rom and OC kernal 1.1 from dtm.
 
Mr. Bobo, I have a question. Is it possible to make a custom status bar that hides all of the notification icons? That would be awesome!
 
Not quite sure what you don't want to see, wifi, signal etc or notification things like email or the toggles

Oh sorry, I mean like application icons like pandora on the top left hand corner of the bar. I think it would help declutter the bar and give it a cleaner look.

I hear you but I don't think this is something I can do, I was looking for an app for this but can't find anything at the moment, I will let you know if I do. Personally I never have more than one or two notifications at a time and I don't mind the pandora icon.

That's a notification icon that is in the app. In order for it to be themed it would have to be included with the rom ;)

Which is the best kernel to use with n00b VI ?
I'm looking for stability, battery and speed, my priority is not OC.

I have builtin kernel now and SetCPU.

My best was with the 1.8Ghz. But youll have to PM DTM for it. It's not officially released
Loved the noob rom!!! I have a nandroid backup just in case!!
 
I have another request :D

Could you change the text arrow thing (see attached image) so that it's coming from the top instead of from the bottom? It always gets in my way whenever it's in the bottom, often making it hard to click on my keyboard suggestions.

Again, thanks for all of your help!
