Root [ROM][WIP] BACKside ROM (CM7) + Green Machine Theme

[AndyOpie150]

Hey ben, It works flawlessly for me so far. Made a backup with it and installed the backup it made. Everything is rocking and rolling so far. Will try installing a backup the touch recovery made and let you know how it went in Jerry's recovery thread

I wish the M would at least boot touch screen recovery

 

[AndyOpie150]

The touch recovery is nice, but I find myself still using the hard keys more often than not. Lol
Jerry's recovery has more advantages than the touch recovery by far.

 

[brotherswing]

I think he's planning on adding in touchscreen support. That's based on something he'd said in the CWMT thread before he had even released his recovery.

 

[atjaguarx]

maybe you could try some slightly modified versions of the stock rom and see what happens.

Any suggestion?

So...no boot logos for this phone then?

There's a tut buried a bit back in the thread

I have no doubt it will work but I always have a backup but it seems I've misplaced my original download of blarfs recovery

Hey, Jerry, can we have the Robotto font for the bootanimation instead the default (Times New Roman?) font we have now?

It's somewhat 8-bit and choppy looking, for now

It's actually 8bit-RAW, that's the RLE format.

Blarf to the rescue! He wrote a binary we can use to play pngs in the bootloader!

Oh really? That would be very useful to themers...

Sort of, you still have to unpack, edit, then repack the boot.img.

JerryScript: Could I extract the new BACKside Updater from the newest build (Not installed yet) and install it on my system in place of the old apk without any problems? Is there something I need to do other than just a straight delete and transfer?

[benslgdroid]

I would really like a link to blarfs recovery please

 

[JerryScript]

Everyone switched to Bob's recovery a few months ago, but I'm trying to find an old copy for you.

 

[AndyOpie150]

Try looking in the Github.

 

[benslgdroid]

I can't find the link to that either

Jerry have you looked into supersu https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu it's supposed to be the new super user and fix allot of things in super user.

Checking it out now...

::edit:: looks great, does the job, nice features, I'm sold...

 

[nightspd]

Now the proud owner of 04172012 ROM along with Jerry's recovery and The Blues theme. You are the master Jerry, I love this new recovery!

I haven't noticed any bugs with SuperUser on the OV, so for now, I'm of the opinion "if it aint broke..."

He doesn't really state what it fixes, so I'm waiting for info.

Of course, you can follow Chainfire's instructions to install it yourself.

 

[nijel]

I'm with you on this one.
I've tried some earlier builds of supersu and it was buggy. Didn't respect its settings to not bother me with toasts and questions. And I don't care for the new features.
Superuser never gave me any problems.

 

[benslgdroid]

It's supposed to allow you to use apps which cant work with root which I've never done with superuser so I'm going to give it a try. Looking at the thread it seems to have worked out the bugs.
