Root LG Ally Custom Rom - Dapper Duck Build

oh and after this next build i may go RC1 if i can get a theme created and applied :)

we all need to gather up and create a list of working theme's, ill compare working .xml file to a non-working one see what the difference is, there has to be a way to rewrite them
 
this is completely random, but yeah, bad decision, but i have no room to speak.... its kinda claustrophobic in here lmao

lol. ya a little random. ok, so i need to add the app2sd apk, i guess i could reintegrate the LG Home, but ill do that once the memory issues are resolved, would you guys like a file explorer app integrated?

that would be great you should put ROM Manager in there too!

I have a few but brainfart and you know the rest. But the Red theme for Droid isnt working i think its called NRED, NexTheme, OE Blackbar, RhinoHERO, R1-theme-1, and xHero -2.1. those are my nonworkers and the ones that are working are the two called Android Glass and the one that you posted

Lol that's exactly the ones I tested, I guess we need to look for themes for stock 2.1, all those are in some way involved with either a themed rom by htc or a custom one, we need stock themes
 
Put a skin on a skin? Lol that wont work, I'm running a custom skinned theme right now its actually really fast.

lol LG home isnt a skin its a theme. and there really arent many "Stock MM" themes that work but those two

what i meant is that LG Home still replaces how things look, and if u try to put a skin on it everything will get overwritten and just look like it was made to look, maybe i got you wrong, if you mean change colors of LG Home then yes thats totally diffrent, sorry if i misunderstood you, dont mean to flame or anything

lol nahhh its all cool dude. i colored it black. then i lost the apk and the odex and forgot what i was doing... :/

Do you think that you could ditch the stock LG dialer/contact interface and go with something more like the droid?
 
What about a tethering app? I haven't had a chance to test this yet as im building my own rom. But what including Barnacle Wifi Tether?

i can wrap that in :).

oh and guys i tried to wrap in the app2sd card app and after moving applications to SD card it bricked my phone. so i would advised against trying it. until i get the issue resolved i wont wrap it into the next build, i could use some people with Ally's that are willing to help me trouble shoot why it bricks. if you want to help then either send me a PM or contact me on google chat.

I can also confirm this with the rom im making. (Atleast im sure it bricked.) My phone would randomly restart and that the android loading screen it would freeze after about 5 seconds then restart the loading screen and that would be a countious loop no matter how many times i took the battery out and restarted.

ya i am not sure what is causing it, oh good news, if things go as planned i will have a new build posted today with wifi tethering encorporated, and a rom mgr.
now i did add the facebook app just for shits n' giggles, but if you guys want it removed i can do it. btw its highly customized, all red n black :)
 
Hey guys quick update I will not be wrapping the custon facebook app in due to the fact that the damned thing keeps giving me stability issues on the rom.
