Root [ROM] Mobster Rom HD/Lite - 031513

I only use JD because it cuts off mobile data when the screen is off and turns it back on when the screen turns on. This makes a BIG difference in my battery life. If there's a setting in Android where I can control that myself please point me to it.

In the quick settings you can toggle your mobile data whenever you want.

I agree with the above posts. This seems faster than when it had the Holo launcher. Everything is quick. Even not overclocked it seems faster than any other ROM i've used when they are OC'd. A green message icon would be cool but that's a minor want for the perks of the ROM. Great job. With as efficient as this is, this will def. be my new daily driver for now.

PS. I may be in the minority but I like the black and inverted apps. Gives it a much cleaner look. JMO.:driver:
I agree with you I love the black and inverted apps. Makes it badass.
 
what is your battery life like... like i said before im now getting 6 hours which is an improvement but still horrible.. and thats with auto bright off, location etc.. but i dont use jd or any other app

11 hours of moderate use and I'm still at 54%. I use Juice Defender, auto brightness, and stock kernel w/o OC all with stock battery. I personally think JD makes a difference, but to each their own.
 
This is good for my sweet tooth :D

hey mob can you share with us the model of battery you got, after trying that newer battery i get almost twice what i did with the stock one, but you seem to have the best battery life out of any evo on this forum..(3d, shift, or otherwise)

I got a QCell 3850mAh battery but I don't think its really giving me an better battery life then say a Sideo 4000mAh battery
 
+1 - The black theme is especially bothersome in Gmail. The black background makes it difficult to read an email.

Thanks :)

Go to android police and look for the pinch to zoom gmail apk. Maybe mobstergunz can package that in in the next build. I personally don't enjoy themed gmail but I do like other stuff themed. I do hope that one day there will be a stock build released with everything the themed build has except the dark theme, some people may not enjoy the dark theme.

Happen to know where to find a QCell 3850mAH battery? Amazon is sold out and Google is letting me down. I don't feel like shelling out $100 for a Seidio 4000mAH battery.

EDIT: I'm finding plenty of 3500 or 3600mAH extended batteries on ebay for ~$10.00, but I've never heard of most of the brands. So I guess i'll broaden my question to any recommendations since QCell seems to be sold out (even their website redirects to Amazon, which says it doesn't know when or if it's getting more in stock).

EDIT 2: Found a Seidio 4000mAH battery on ebay for $55, but i'd still like something cheaper.

Amazon is where I got mine only paid $5 for mine but I believe QCell has its own website that you could order from but it might be more expensive then amazon
 
I agree it feels better. But the battery is close to the same thickness as the phone itself. It does feel nicer in my hand. I paired it with a trexcell case
 
included kernel doesn't allow for overclocking, correct? how does mobster get along with anthrax?
it gets along fine but......

You dont need overclocking. Other kernels will allow overclock. But the 2nd core usually stays asleep. Mobsters Power Kernel keep the 2nd core awake. THUS GIVING YOU BETTER PERFORMANCE. Trust me. Dont be fooled by Benchmarks.
 
Today i got the testicular fortitude to flash this rom after coming from miui I must say this is an awesome rom so far. Very snappy and responsive indeed. Good work dev

I just picked up an extended battery for $6.99 shipped (with cover). At that price its worth it just to play around. Ive found through the years that there is little difference in extended batteries with high and low prices.

Not true some batteries don't actually have the mAh they claim, don't have a built-in limiter to prevent over charging, and some might actually damage your phone........

If you think theres no difference in quality between different batteries and their prices your wrong!!!!! That's a very dangerous way of shopping (even more so on the internet)

Trust me you don't want to know why somethings are unbelievably cheap and often have bad reviews or even none......
 
Any chance we can get a sense wallpaper somehow? You know, one that scrolls slightly when you swipe to a different homescreen?
 
For whatever reason solid explorer beta 2 can't get, and doesn't seem to ask for, root access. Does on midnight but not here. Doesn't show in supersu and uninstall reinstall doesn't help
 
What happened to the home menu that was in the previous browser? Only Dolphin Browser has this but It's not as fast as the stock browser. Does anyone know how we can put that little home icon back in this?

When's the last time you used Dolphin? It should be faster than Stock (And Chrome is already faster than Stock) and with JetPack it's even faster.

edit/addendum:

Mobster, I'm wondering if you're working on or have considered making a stock looking settings menu that is compatible with our phone? From the looks of it the "stock" one that can be flashed now is from something else (it's not CM, I know that much since my Optimus V had CM9) and doesn't have access to things like the menu with PRL and profile updates, and contains settings that don't work on our phone (the toggle menu.) Luckily none of this stuff seems to crash the phone so it's not too big of a deal.

This is the kind of post I'm talking about the AOSP Settings are in the Second post and they have been there for a long time
