Root [CLOSED] [OA]2.0-[STABLE] [Updated: 07/16/12]

deleted phone.apk on stock, put the phone.apk, it worked fine. 3g etc. Thanks. Love the screen, looks like a cm7 port though? It kinda does..
 
Ok never mind there is a settings problem, dont know if its only visual.
Settings -Wireless and networks - Mobile networks shows 'Cricket Only' but i always use automatic..but yeah
 
Its actually from the EH29 Leaked Cricket corp flash utility.

Im going to be working on it to see if I can fix the bug (but it worked fine on 2.3.4 -- just not 2.3.6 for some reason).
 
Hi, I am new here and what you have done looks interesting but I'm not sure its for me. I have an Admire that I ported to Page Plus from Metro. I need access to the network menu to configure it for the Verizon network and not Metro. Will this ROM allow me to configure it for Page+? I hope...

##DATA# will work on this device, if thats what you are meaning.
You can also use APN Shortcut to enter a custom APN, but I doubt if mms would work, being as its ported for Cricket.

Good Luck!
 
So ehm.... Tired of the blech standard 2.3.6 phone.apk I was forced to revert to? Who wants a new phone apk hmm? One that _doesnt_ FC on incoming calls? ;)

Something like the pics below?

Stay tuned for Revision 1.2..

I appreciate your reply, I have tried ##DATA# and get nothing, I wonder if there is a mode I need to be in before trying this.

Hey Spz0,

Can we just do an upgrade with these roms, like wipe the caches and install, or do we need a fresh flash each time?

Hey m8.
I haven't got around to making upgrade zips yet.
You can try what you suggested but I don't think it will work.
Use titanium backup to back your apps and data up then re flash.

Once the rom goes stable, I'll be making upgrade zips along with the full build revisions (unless it's a major update, then you'll have to re flash full)

Cheers m8 :D
 
Let me know if you run into any issues with the phone.apk. I had to rewrite some code to solve the force close issue, but haven't field tested it extensively.

Cheers

No issues so far my man. Runs like butta :) Love the UI tweaks with the holo blue.

One request, small, but nevertheless: The whole ROM looks sweet with the blue hue, can we switch the color in alarms to match? They are green. I know, its a stupid request, but it would fit the rom perfectly. If I get the job Im interviewing for today, Ill make sure I buy you a few beers :)

Thanks - Joe

I'll look into it over the weekend m8.
 
Ok, Im getting ready for a stable release (no more Beta), and there are a couple things I want some input on.

Sold on Holo Launcher? I like the look and feel, but I don't like the fact that it tries to push the plus version on me periodically when I wake my phone up.
Any alternative suggestions (VTL, Zeam, Go, etc...)?

Although Im still working on a proper fix for the MMS issue, do y'all mind the fix I currently have? I've tried to make it as painless as possible.

GalleryICS vs. Stock Gallery3D?
Discuss...

Any other changes you would like to see?

Thanks in advance. :)

Ext4 version isn't going to put a dent in the free space on /data m8.
Think there's about 150mb free on a fresh install currently - a good increase vs stock . I also use link2sd, which helps, but honestly I haven't run into space issues yet.

But I thought if i have the sd partition for like second partition doesn't the partition have to be ext4, doesn't the rom have to be supported for ext4 or am i mixing up or something.

I think its based on the kernel. Right now I'm using ext2 for link2sd, and its working well. Have about 20 apps installed, an roughly 50 megs free.

I like Holo launcher, despite the annoying message to buy into the plus version... We can always change it if we want something else, really.

The fix for MMS is fine and only takes a second. No issues with it.
 
Great. Glad to hear. I'll have to work in the clock apk mods in a future release (they are not as simple as I had thought).
I am also running into some random FC's on certain contact.apk actions that need investigating before going stable.
If you punch in a number using phone.apk, and press menu-add contact, then go to save, theres a FC issue. Must have to do with telephone providers from mix n matching my updated phone.apk with the rest of the phone and contact system apks. I'll look into it later -- on my way out for the night.

Holo Launcher is sweet! Haven't tried other alternative launchers.

I went ahead and purchased the Pro version of Holo for $3.99, it adds a few new features which aren't essential but I think are pretty neat. Besides, why not support the devs? =)

Had to make some pretty heavy mods to the OS, but I got the problem solved.
Not sure how much time I'll have tonight, but I'll try to get out an OV-2.3.6-Stable-2.0 release tonight. This will be the last full flash for bug fixes ladies n gents. All other subsequent bug patches will be available in an upgrade flash zip when applicable (as well as the full downloadable rom revision zip).

Cheers!
 
Issue 3289 - android - Airplane mode should be configureable - Android - An Open Handset Alliance Project - Google Project Hosting

I had a look around on the bluetooth issue. Appears to be pretty common. A possible simple fix is listed near the bottom of the post. I'm on stock so I can't test it.

I flashed your second release over the first without event. There wernt mainy changes though.
Holo launcher notification could be appearing because its installed as a system app and the setting wont write/ stick. I installed it on stock I don't remember it ever asking me and if it did it was only one or two times after installation.

I've written to the holo launcher developer to suggest several improvements. From his responses I don't think youre going to see many more. It was either not possible, too much to implement, already done it (when he hadn't), didn't understand or its in pro or will be in pro. A lot of these suggestions were already in adw. I got the impression he's in it more for the money than the adw developers are. I wouldn't pay for these features if they are free in other launchers and this launcher may only be quicker because it doesn't have those modules built in. Even so I would still keep it for the time being o)

I copied over your eq settings to stock and it seems to work ok.

Ill flash it again when its on ext.4. I also want to see what you did with the notifications window o)
