Root [ROM] Number Two (#2) v3.0.1 {ZVE}

I think other people will agree when I say 2.1 is the best out of any of the versions. Better than the last best version which was 1.9.1.

I say no more tweaks unless it's something that is obviously distinctively better than 2.1.

2.1 with the tweaks option of performance or battery is just perfect. It's 3 different badass roms.

I think you've finally got it L. :)

Driftizzle is bad ass. PG who? LOL, kidding. I would put my baby up against any of the other high end phones...even the S3. Don't know anyone that has one, but if Metro does get it, it better be king freaking kong compared to what we have for our Esteems now.
 
ROM doesn't matter-it's a generic fix that work on FC's give it a shot and hopefully it takes care of it for you:rock:[/QUOTE


ok so i just fix permissions and it still does that. its a foreclose pop up but does not interrupt the music when i forclose. this is what it says "The application widget (process com.lge.sizechangable.musicwidget.widget) has stopped unexpectedly. please try again". this pops up every time i press the next song. has anyone had this b4. it just bothers me that it pops up

edit: im just gonna flash the 2.1 and see if that works because im currently on the 2.0...........
 
I don't know if I want to "upgrade" :p

Hey gbiggie that is with plain 2.0 right
 
Yes sir:thumbup:
Finally have some time to flash v2.1-going to try the performance tweak:D

Performance is doing absolute wonders for me.
ldrifta is epic! When I got this phone, I'd of never guessed that you could improve it this much.
I'm going to try the battery tweak in a few days.
 
2.1 running nice. 12 hrs and at 77% very light use. Few checks of the radar (raindar) but mostly stayed in my pocket. Data was off when not needed. GJ man. Can't get that from any other ROM for the Esteem.

guys.. I seriously want to thank all of you for the thanks & respect i get around here, your all awesome and i love reading things like this :D


BUT, the honest truth is.. none of this work can really be claimed as "mine" even though sometimes i label it as my own, the reality of it all is im just good at using google lol


none of the additions or modifications i've delivered to you guys is really my work.. I just find the best options I can find that other people have already discovered and explained, so if anything all the credit and thanks im getting should be more to people like PG, MT and the OG devs of previous devices who took the time to discover all these fun tweaks :D


the MAIN reason things seem as good as they are is for these reasons..


-the Stock ROM is heavily debloated
-the Stock Kernel is still very stock, only changes are minfree values which gives that little extra boost of performance
-using the most common/simplistic tweaks found in other forums from many other developers (thanks to all of you who tested so we can confirm stability)
-Any modifications "I" made were more UI related (Including xml editing) than performance related


the main thing i did besides removing un-needed apk's was sift through some of the other folders (bin, lib, etc etc.. lol) and carefully remove what we absolutely did not need, and add things that would benefit for us..


so to sum it all up, #2 & speed kernel is just a stock dump, themed (thanks to me with some help :D) with root (thanks to mt & pg) debloated (thanks to.. well it's just common sense everyone would debloat it lol) and commonly tweaked & Modded (thanks to uhh like hundreds of android developers..?) HAHA


Im just the guy who did the research of them and put them together in a use-able form for the esteemers, which i still couldn't have done if MT & PG didn't do it already ;)

We still wouldn't have the greatness with out you.

Plus, if you made the un informed people believe it was basically stock they wouldn't have believed you. haha

Isn't everything a Google search away? If you feel like paying forward that's up to you. Dont feel bad for stealing the thunder. Time research and engineering, and a solid product, that deserves some glory and compensation. Help PG get that cm-9 working ;)

Alright, this is slightly off topic but not really :) am trying to make a flashable .zip for the new Swype beta for this ROM but keep getting fc's.. the .zip is fine as all I did was pull the swypeb.zip, edit the updater script and swapped the .apk with the new one.. had to go through the beta login stuff and ran the installer first to get it.. anyone know what I'm missing?

Install it in data/apps and see what it does then.

Swype is very very tricky. If installed manually I can only get it working when installed into data/apps.

I tried pushing it to both system/apps and data/apps. Same result.. I'm thinking it may add a line or something somewhere to check that it was installed through the installer.. shot in the dark but one of those learning experiences I'm determined to figure out lol..

I always just copy the apk from sd and paste it into data/apps. If it doesn't install or if it force closes on startup i will go to data/apps and double click and install it and it usually works perfect from there.

you also need the lib file, as for any keyboard you want installed to system/app

should be something like libswypecore#version#
