Can you please make power options etcetera in the notification bar like shevrons rom please cause it is cool and convenient
 
Sorry i meant quick panel not power options to the notification bar please thanks
 
ok so ive got a noobish question. im working with the version right before the contact fix. need that fix but had already had everthing set up and not wanting to start from scratch or sorting out settings after loading a back up from titanium.

since im already running the rom can i some how install the update with out a complete cwm recovery flash or can i manualy swap out files to fix the contacts?
 
I am not part of this rom in anyway but a system flash should fix a contact problem, just advanced restore system only.

need not worry about that.. because what the zip will do is just add the 3 options on the menu ....... just install it as if you were to install a theme
.
 
easily confused and should add more details in my question. Im still a bit of a noob when it comes to flashing and recovery.

im running 2.0.0 7/8/12 and need the edit contacts fix in 2.0.1 7/11/12.

That fix is in the powermenu3.zip as well?

i downloaded the 2.0.1 update and follow Loota's route but I got a failed checksum. Big file to snatch with 3g and it did drop and had to restart.

Also will Loota's method require a reinstall of the Bobzhome kernel? just curious what to expect if that is what I need to do.

And again thanks to You and Loota.
 
Nah bobzhome's kernel is in boot.img if I'm not mistaken so that won't be replaced plus you're reflashing something with that kernel on it already so no worries..

By now it looks like you're a few versions behind so you may be better off just backing up settings and apps with titanium backup and reflashing the entire rom.

The reason you failed the checksum is because you need to download with a computer. The way it seems to work best is download to pc then 7zip extract the folder to cwm/back-up and don't re-name or copy that folder.

ok so I jumped the gun and followed Loota's advice and just went the mile and flash 2.0.1 and Bobz and titanium.

But I made a cwm backup first. Might go back to get the red text back and flash this patch.

will decide in a few days of use. i hesitate because the stats are showing 201 is running just a bit faster/ smoother.

The center clock is cool but doesn't auto hide when a notification text pops up so makes it hard to read whats up.

when I got it downloaded again i unpacked it and got the checksum fail again.
I figured it was something in my settings. I have root explorer on here and was using it to unpack. So i deleated the failed files and opened archdroid and and used it to access and unpack. Flawless and fast flash first time.

so if any one gets md5 fail. try unpacking it that way.

Certified pc free process!

Your pink theme might finally get my wife to root her Ultra.

Thanks for the patch katracho. That is prolly how I will go. And thanks Loota.
 
This is by far the coolest custom rom I've found so far, but I can't get wifi to work. It picks up signalsand even connects to a network, but when I try to open a browser or go to market it acts as if I'm not connected. Any thoughts?

I had the same issue with the WiFi... sadly
 
I believe Loota said to use Set Dns https://play.google.com/store/apps/...1bGwsMSwxLDEsInVrLmNvLm15dGVjaGllLnNldEROUyJd. Or try Dns Changer https://play.google.com/store/apps/...GwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5lZGR5cGN6LmRuc2NoYW5nZXIiXQ.. I've been using it even before this Rom or 2.3.6 came out. Just for the simple fact that I was trying to get a quicker connection. Ive never had wifi issues with 2.3.6 I've had issues with 3G but that's because I didn't feel like paying for it! LoL! So I recommend Dns Changer & make sure you go into settings, use OpenDns settings 1 & 2 for alternate, check auto apply & you should be good to go! Good Luck! Oh Yeah I almost forgot to say Thank You to Katracho for the latest zip update! I was missing the Icons in settings, but not anymore!
 
So how about the quick panel in the notification bar. Anyway you can make that happen with this rom please for all of us. We would appreciate it.
 
loota thank you very much for the help:shakehands:

Any time bro, anything I can do to keep devs devving and instead of having to answer questions :P I may not be able to dev but my memory is amazing for a pothead... I am all about sharing what I know!
