Root Soon To Be Released ROM for Ally

[atc3030]

Thought The Lg Ally Development was coming to a close? Thought that the Ally was a child's toy for past grownups? Think that no more.
Myself, J2, and cr5315 have been hard at work on a new ROM for the ally, and rather than try and explain it, i will let J2's demo video explain it.

Keep your eyes on the forums folks.

atc3030 has left the StormDroid team. We are still developing and we are close-ish to being ready for public release.

 

[j2cool2012]

We are no longer accepting new beta testers. congratulations to those who made it, and thank you.

 

[tbone1319]

looking forward to it

Did I miss the 'explain' part?

 

[jwish]

I think maybe you should try to explain it. The video didn't explain much. Still interested though.

 

[dautley]

Any development on Ally is good.
Slick video, looking forward to hearing more about the ROM

Can we get a list of features? I would really like to know if this runs Pandora. Not that I use it much, but I would like the ability.

A list of features will be added at a later date.

And I can confirm that Pandora Radio does work on StormDroid.

 

[benwalburn]

Ah excellent.
Now is there any way I could get into the beta?

 

[yohobojo]

Cool man. Very awesome. Cant wait!

Just so you're not stuck out in the blue, this will make Pandora work on Velocity 1.1:

[benwalburn]

Yeah, i wandered across that shortly after posting that question lol. I've been so wrapped up in the Galaxy Prevail that I haven't paid much attention to the Ally development

 

[droidsales]

Awesome! Velocity is what's kept this phone alive, but I'm always willing to try another rom. Looking forward to it!

 

[j2cool2012]

Bump! StormDroid revealed in 2nd post!

So when this ROM is released with it work for android 2.2.1 or does it just work for android 2.2.2?

The video in post #2 says 2.2.2

 

[cr5315]

It will not matter whether you have 2.2.1 or 2.2.2. StormDroid will work with both. If you have 2.2.1, it will still work, you'll just be on 2.2.2 after flashing.

I know but Velocity 1.1 works on both even though it was made for 2.2.1

Thanks that is what i thought but i wasnt sure

I just want to say taht I am glad that developers are still working with the Ally. It is one of the most reliable phones I have ever had. I have not had any major problems with the phone or its hardware. I know 3 peopole who have droid 1 and they have had major problems with thiers. i think the ally is one of the most resiliant android phones out there
keep up the good work

Same here. I have dropped it on the ground so many times I can't even count. I'm a boater and it's also taken it's fair share of 'baths' in the lake, yet it still works fine. I was actually eligible for an upgrade over a month ago, but I don't want to end up with something that"s not as durable as my good ol' Ally.

It is a sturdy lil' thang, ain't it?
