Root [ROM]A Froyo Rom 2.2.1

Well then why during the flash it says You might want to wipe caches when installation is complete? Says it right there on the phone during flashing.....

I updated the package so it doesn't tell you to anymore.

Fudge. After i flashed the maintainence patch, aloha didnt work, but clockwork did. But now after flashing the jmnt theme cw recovery wont work. T.T help?

This is very odd, has anyone else noticed problems like this?

I just realized you removed the stock email app.... which i was using to connect an echange server from work. Any ideas for replacement, or substitute?

Added a flashable zip in the 2nd post for you.
 
This is indeed a very nice ROM. Using it on my Ally now. :) Scored a Quadrant of 975 for me, very nice indeed!
 
Flashed the ROM, worked perfect.
Flashed the Stock Theme, and its stuck at the Verizon Wireless logo.

You said not the wipe anything before flashing the theme, right? I didn't, so I don't know what happened...
 
Im trying to get the email update to work and all it does is hang at the verizon wireless logo. I did it without wiping anything like you put in message and after I reflashed the rom, I tried to wipe data/cache/dalvik and then flash the email app and it still hangs at the verizon wireless logo. Any ideas?

my phone also hung at the verizon logo for both the flashable emial zip and the jamt theme

Ill get this fixed today, I had my phone in a bad way when i wrote those and couldnt test. Keep your eyes out for new zips ina few hours


Has the Luna theme been fully ported? If not, what's missing? Just curious.

I still need to change the XMLs to get the text colors right.
 
Thanks for the great work Savox, I've got Luna up and running, and it looks quite awesome. What I'm wondering now is....where is YouTube? I had it with Byron, but when I flashed this rom it disappeared. Sure, I can find an apk somewhere, but it wont be themed like the rest of the rom.

Edit: One more thing, I wanted to keep the Luna themes wallpaper,but I changed it experimenting and now i cant find it anywhere...not even in the theme .zip.
 
hey man just thought i would say that i have found an issue "gmail" is force closing so yeah maybe i should restart my phone ...will do, and will see if that fixed it

The wallpapers are actually found INSIDE the Launcher2.apk in drawable.hdpi (you can op[en the apk just like any zip)

I am going to make a flashable ZIP with the updated Gmail and YouTube very soon.



Everyone else.

Super busy, working on bluetooth, fixed the stock theme and email zips. Dont even ask what was wrong, its embarassing
 
Gmail fix and YouTube addiditon included as a maintenance patch. Main download not updated yet.


Smartass question, what was wrong? :P
Thanks for the quick response and the info btw.

Usually you only wipe /system when your going to flash some things back on, I was so tired when i packaged those up it was wiping system for small updates, so essentially all you had on your phone was some apks, in the email patches case, all you had was email.apk.

No more silly mistakes like that.
 
Okay i know nothing about threads but i was on vel 4 and i flashed this and i might have flashed the wrong one but im not sure it was 88 megs which seemed right to me but anyways my phone starts up, almost finishes the verizon splash then shuts off and repeats. I sat here for 30 minutes hoping for it to get over itself but hasnt. I hope i didnt just ruin it since i think theres no system on the phone at all now or something... What do you guys think? What do I do, i really need my phone.
 
You need to already be on 2.2.1 to flash this because of the radio update. You will need to restore a backup or flash a 2.1 rom.
 
okay so i get it, i deleted data and all that but i still have the 2.1 system but i installed 2.2 preferences.. im screwed right :(
 
Alright i know thats sdk but can you set me up.

1. What do i need to download. Links maybe.
2. Can i restore my phone to stock while doing this so i can fix the phone and also get the ota update when it reboots by flashing the stock img which ive seen it around here somewhere... Link of stock recovery img if i can do that. If not can you link me the best steps to unroot it and all that junk when i reflash vel 0.4

Sorry if im not making much since.

Just curious, is there any way to get rid of the verizon wireless startup animation when booting up?

This is a great rom and I love it!
 
so how does this compare to byron? and also is there any news on an oc kernal that will work with this? great job btw the only thing i want to do is change the 3g icon on the jamt theme but im scared to use metamorph lol
