Use CM6.1 instead
#TeamFenix (IRC channel: #mytouchslide on Freenode) presents Cyanogenmod 6
Details/Goal: I've owned Android phones for about 2 years now, I've always enjoyed making minor tweaks to the previously simple CyanogenMod so that it would suit my purposes (lightweight, fast, good battery life). When CM6 came along I was slightly distraught that it had taken a turn for heavily drifting from the old AOSP with Google Apps (not entirely for the worse though). So I decided that I will modify CM6 to suit my needs and eventually compile it from source instead of relying on Eugene's or the nightlies.
Changes:
2.0
-Stuff was done, or something
-EVEN MOAR AUDIO FILES
-Better bootanimation
-100% untested!
1.9 (unreleased)
-**** all
1.8:
-Rebased on newest nightly
-Removed lots of crapware
-Made a flashable .zip that will let you restore said crapware
-Played with the kernel
--Apparently broke with the kernel, must use OC kernel (I think)
-It's BLACK!
-Fixed the force closes (by way of apk removal) of the Pinyin IME/OpenWnn IME.
1.7.1:
-Minor build.prop change to allow stock Swype to install/work
-something else I forget
1.7:
-Removed Swype as it is for wrong device (try the 2 linked below
-Custom pr0tips.apk (built off LithiumMod's source, thanks guys!)
-Bootanimation is back (custom #TeamFenix one soon!)
-Bluetooth audio (possibly) fixed, see instructions below
-Fixed the provision annoyance
Flashed and running. All good.
I think I'm having poor 3G reception at this time. WiFi works though....
I can confirm Bluetooth is working!
Keyboard works except the FN and Shift indicators.
More testing tomorrow....
I was able to update Swype using my method here:

Alright, that's what I'm on atm
flashing now
All the roms i've seen for the slide so far use ADW or HELIX launcher. To be honest I don't hear much talk about launcher pro. Is there a reason people don't use launcher pro? Or is it just personal preference?
rawr! i just finished flashing v1.1 and it works awesome, whats diff with v1.2?...OK flashing v1.2, camera and camcorder work great
Can anyone confirm the camera is working well?

Going to swap out my other froyo rom for this one and see how it goes.
So far, so good.
Apps2SD isn't working, right? Or do I need to do something to enable it?
I'm already missing certain Sense elements but the things I've gained are keeping my interest.
Thanks to all devs involved!
Thanks. Great rom, camera/camcorder working. Not sure how to get apps to sd. Also Has anyone figured out how to get swype working?

Personally I HATE Helix and Launcherpro is going to be a paid app eventually, I don't an issue with people making their applications cost money but I prefer to support a developer who's work will be free forever (hopefully) and accepts donations.
and with ADW I can set the overshoot to insanely high amounts

Apps2SD works fine (tested Froyo's native move to SD, with the Dictionary.com application on a 100% FAT32 card)
I can suggest some replacements to Sense applications if you wish (Beautiful Widgets + it's widget packs are great alternatives to their stock Espresso counterparts)

I'm not quite sure, I thought I had it working but it errors out (wrong device). You could try one of these versions listed, I will contact Eugene today or tomorrow to see if he has any insight
Also I was partially wrong about the camera being 100% fixed, the flash doesn't work (I saw a commit that probably will fix it by @cmsrc so it may be working tomorrow)
edit: The camera LED only works for the camera, not external programs. The aforementioned fix should correct it.

Apps2SD works, go into SETTINGS; CYANOGENMOD SETTINGS; APPLICATION SETTINGS; then check able to move apps to external and set storage to external... then just move all apps that you want to the SD card and your all set!

Its not Apps2SDext, its the native froyo apps2sd
I'm liking this rom so far and will use it as my daily tomorrow and see how it goes.
Some Issues:
The only way to bring up the lock screen is to press the power button or menu button. Home, trackpad, back, genius doesn't.

What's wrong with the Froyo implementation? Personally I think the old method was a PITA
Also those aren't issues, but configurable options. See CM Settings > Input > Trackpall unlock/wake. The others seem rather redundant (do you really wanna wear out home/menu/back instead of using the trackpad? Personal preference I guess, you can set WAKE_UNLOCK in the /usr/keylayout files though if that's really your cup of tea)

It's just that on the stock htc rom it does this and I thought it was an issue. Didn't know it was as simple as mapping the keys in some config file. Thanks for clearing all this up all I need is the trackpad.
ahhh idk about froyo roms iam stuck on my custom sence ie.friend stream so it makes me not want to chang and just wait till 2,2 comes out with it

No problem, I recommend disabling surface dithering under Performance, makes scrolling much more fluid in my opinion.

Note: This is a learning experience for me, lots of stuff will end up broken, but I do plan on fixing most of the bugs and eventually compiling this from source myself.
This ROM is based off #TeamSlide's previous Senseless work, with a number of fixes, updates, mods, and planned improvements.
Changelog:
Version 39
-New bootanimation! That doesn't work! It's broken 'cause the boot sequence is too fast (30 seconds~ first boot, 10 seconds~ every boot after)
-Moved some crap to /system to save space on /data for apps
-AdFree Android's hosts file has been applied! No AdMob ads in apps or ads on the internet!
-Minor tweaks
-Every key works except ? and Sym (Thanks Eugene!)
-Boots in 10 goddamn seconds!
Versions 1-37
-Livewallpapers fixed (including stock Nexus ones, proper MDPI drawables. Props to Wes)
-Zipaligns apps as they are installed
-Minor framework changes (I screwed up the status bar and then fixed it, you probably won't notice the difference)
-Removed LauncherPro (yuck)
-Added ADW.Launcher 1.0.1 (yum!)
-Added my modified HTC_IME Mod v27 in /system/app
-Latest Spareparts (Dunno if many things in it will work)
-Pressing DPAD with wake screen
-Internal task killer modification
-Some random stuff I forgot
-Removed warez
Kangs/Thanks:
Live wallpapers from OpenEclair and WesBlend 1.0.2 by WesGarner
Cyanogen for... lots of stuff
ADW Launcher from AnderWebs
jp###### and kingofyo1 for the original #TeamSlide ROM
Eugene373 for his keylayouts
What works:
*WiFi
*Device keyboard autocorrection (YAY!)
*Market
*GPS
*Live wallpapers (INCLUDING STOCK!)
*Everything not mentioned below
Broken:
*? and Sym keys
*Keyboard backlight
*Autobrightness
*Bootanimation (boots too fast for it to work, dunno how to fix)
Downloads
White/Stock version: Download
Blue version: Download
Green Version: Download
IMPORTANT: If you decide to use LatinIME aka the stock Android keyboard you MUST long press and change to the *SECOND* one on the list, the first one is all sorts of messed up. Same goes for settings, the second one on the list has the proper settings.
Nandroiding now. Ill report back after lunch and let you know how it is. Sounds promising.
How is it compared to original and Froyou RC1?

It's feels like to me a mirror image except some settings in messaging are missing, and i cant get the trackpad to wake the screen up unless im messing something. And the htc keyboard is included. Pull down notifications is cool. I like it a lot. Hey dev can u pull the keymapping file from 1.3 and use it cause all the keys work on that version. Just a thought. That's all I can think of I love non sense roms.
Edit:you can use the menu, home keys to wake the screen up. Sorry.

Hello all, going to be dipping my hands into ROM cooking, and I wanted to get a few opinions on the matter. I have my own ideas on what I want to include, but I would like to get the opinions of some the users that may be utilizing it on what you may prefer.
1) What would you like the source to be? (10c that amberhome uses seems to be pretty stable, but I am open to suggestions)
2) What would be your preferred home screen replacement? (Please only free ones, or ones that have a free version)
3) What kind of tools would you like included?
4) Any other apps you would like baked in?
Any other comments or suggestions are welcome, this is not just my ROM, but will be others as well
I think that Lg's Launcher should be replaced with LauncherPro.
lg's launcher tends to be laggy with the xtra stuff they implement.. please stick with lp or equivalent.
As of now, I am thinking about putting Launcher Pro + vLauncher in. I am a big fan so far of vLaunchers app drawer.
Umm.. launcherPro is more preferable for me. JIT enable + hardware acceleration enabled. For the source can u make another 1 for the Asia version because i stay at singapore

By what people tell here,the roms are equal,it only changes locales or operators,so guess V10a would be good,because it is unbranded.
But if this theory is wrong,just go for V10c.

The only things that I replaced in V10a and that "for me" make sense to be put on a rom are:
Fancy widget - instead of the LG original one,because it shows the battery percentage.
Compass
GPS Status
Bar Code Scanner
Advanced Task Killer
AndroZip
Astro File Manager

maybe google reader and skyfire (for the ones that are always asking for flash support for this phone).
Oh and of course this tweak
Another important thing is what shouldn't be removed...
A thing that could be good is if you and corwin42 could work together,because amberhome v1.1 is a good rom,it just needs some things sorted out,and two guys work faster than one most of the times

wide language support will be welcomed, so try to compare it and you will see. It's not necessary to have everything because of its size, but it should be possible install next languages like chinese, czech, franch and so one. Most better solution to keep rom as small as possible - include only english and provide mechanism to select/download others.

Android 2.3 Gingerbread
http://lifehacker.com/5707296/screenshot-tour-of-android-23-gingerbread-and-its-best-new-features
Also, ATM I am working on getting the modded kernel for the Optimus S (at least parts of it) working for Optimus T versions at the very least, which is the P509. Don't know weather any of it will be applicable to other P50x series, but I would like this to be in any ROM I release.
Hopefully by then others will have 2.3 hacked apart... and then... much fun will be had by all.
BTW anybody handy at sifting through source and with knowledge of arm cpu's feel free to contact me, any help or differing eyes/opinions would be greatly appreciated.
+ 1 Gingerbread!
Yes black notification bar would be greatly apprecaited.. and song shuffle with long press of volume +- keys would be a great addition...
Black status bar, circle battery with %, launcher pro, root.
It would be also nice to have gingerbread and fastboot.
A ROM like Kang-O-Rama would be great, I use this on my Nexus One and love it.

Closing this one....
This is NOT a full CM7 distro. This is installed immediately after flashing CM7 in the same manor
Features:
Designed for n98
[*]Modified build.prop for Netflix to fix the chipmunk effect (playing too fast)
Updated keyboard configuration:
Remap volume + and - to menu and back
Changes [shift]+[,] and [shift]+[.] to be < and >
Change the physical keyboard arrow keys to be oriented correctly for landscape.
Also adds support for the zoom (and probably other ipad compatable) keyboards. Home is home, brightness buttons are menu/back. Play plays, FWD and RWD are now volume up and down
NOTE: Changes from previous version is always in bold & underlined!
Installation instructions:
After installing your favorite CM7 rom
After installing Dalingrin's kernel (if you choose)
Install this zipfile in the same way with recovery's install zip from sdcard option!!
Let me know if you have any questions. The only thing in this that is truly mine is the keyboard maps. Everything else is (c) their owners.
NEW VERSION(s): (don't use unless you know what you are doing!)
For CM7 n98
OLD VERSIONS: (don't use unless you REALLY know what you are doing!)

Isn't it easier just to post instructions on any mods you like (or even write a monster update.zip customize pack to make necessary drop-in changes) rather than a whole new rom distro? A new rom means a new thread. new thread means new bug reports posted to the wrong place, etc.

This isn't a "rom" I can remove the tags on the OP if you think it's The Thing to Do(tm).
It's just a few drop-in files. It isn't the entire CM7 rom.
It's made as a zip because it's a folder tree (/system/app, /system/usr, etc) to ADD FILES ONLY to your CM7 rom.
This is not CM7, but a few things combined.
Admittedly, the boot animation and miui were included for me. I made this for my use initially. Miui is the only player I found that can play folders (not just albums/etc.)
People have indeed asked for keyboard layout/bin as well as LWP. I just added the few things I also wanted in and made a zip.
I have to agree with fattire in the sense that this is a Theme, rather than Development, and so this should be in the Themes Forum.
Perhaps a mod agrees ??

Le sigh. This isn't just the boot animation. It also includes my keyboard layout and .bin files to allow CM7 to work with a bluetooth keyboard.

Those are equivalent to apps (just like all the other keyboard apps that have different layouts), and that Forum is the "Themes and Apps Forum".
I am not trying is disparage your work, it sounds great.
I just agree with fattire that we cannot have every different collection of pieces being a different thread in this Forum - it pushes the main Development threads off the main page.
if you don't have anything to contribute to the thread just stay out of it.
Thanks for the hard work!
Yeah really, don't knock it. Its still useful work. Thanks for your contribution, OP!
I do not have a BT keyboard for now.
I appreciate your work. i will use it as soon as i get a BT keyboard, not only ******* RF.
Thanks
I haven't contributed much but updating the latest CM7 build to be dual boot. Everyone who contributes should be thanked and not made to feel like their efforts are for nothing. Anyways that's my 2 cents. LOL
Thanks OP.
I'll have to give this a go later. Can you explain how this "supports" the zoom and other iPad keyboards? I use an apple keyboard and would like to understand.
Thanks to the posters.
It was my understanding that fattire thought this was cm7 plus a boot animation or whatever. This isn't cm7. This is merely the files needed to put LWP back into cm7, the modified files for decent bluetooth keyboard support, and a few things from phiremod that I could pull out so those who like phiremod can use the latest cm7.
Then you said move it to the themes forum. I don't care where it goes, I just wanted to be sure you understood this isn't just a boot animation. This has replacement keyboard layout ascii and binary files to properly support a bluetooth keyboard.
I would like to see the two keyboard files pushed into cm7 and this entire thread is unneeded. Everything else can be had from elsewhere. I can put the miui player, and other stuff up elsewere.

Thank you, Mr chisleu, for your very interesting mod. While I'm not a fan of a harshly limited YouTube I take the liberty to quote this:

Also adds support for the zoom (and probably other ipad compatable) keyboards. Home is home, brightness buttons are menu/back. Play plays, FWD and RWD are now volume up and down
Volume up and down buttons (on bluetooth keyboards, and the nook itself) are mapped to back and menu

These are much more important improvements, IMHO. I only hope that people who tried this mod may share their experiences here.
Last thing is my humble personal preferences for a CM7 code or its mod:
-- I think any CM7 release (including nightlies) can have CWR specially tooled for NC, plus with an option to make it into a bootable SD;
-- I think of returning the n17 BT/AdHoc code to a present CM7 code. I know, it takes rebuilding, but it's worth it;
-- I think of a mod supplying Divine_Madcat's I/O improved OC 1.1 GHz kernel to it;
-- CM7 nightlies include a working Gapps install script, maybe chisleu won't be afraid of The GOOG wrath and include Gapps?
-- next I think of USB Host, FM Radio CM7, audio boost devs for NC don't seem to care a lot about, but it's just me, sorry.
Great work, anyway.
This is a build ported from a vibrant setup, some tweaks that dfgas incorporated into the last few builds, some extra tweaks from here and there, and extended settings built in. It is very smooth and fast after letting it settle in for a bit.
Let me know how it is for you. You can wipe data or just cache and dalvik...I do all 3...enjoy.

-includes Glitch V13 kernel with working 3 button recovery (with updated screenstate scaling fix)
-new option of miui app drawer
-pick setup, then enable, wait a couple seconds for drawer to load up, then swipe down from top of screen slightly lower than status bar to pull down drawer (almost right at bottom edge of status bar)...takes a little getting used to swipe area as it is very small.
-new options of hiding signal bars and headset icons
-new option of appdrawer background color
-new "on the fly" statusbar layout switching (no need to refresh statusbar anymore)
-new options of autostarting appdrawer
-charging animation it top bar fixed
Here is a link to the v6 supercharger thread...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18703418&postcount=5021
I would suggest installing the latest supercharger script...http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=792186&d=1322022964 and the app script manager...http://market.android.com/details?id=os.tools.scriptmanager
Download both, change the supercharger scripts name from .pdf to .txt, install script manager, go into script managers options and turn on browse as root, then navigate to the directory you downloaded the supercharger script to within the app, click on it, select run as root, then run. Follow the scripts prompts, and as a suggestion, I use option 7. This makes the phone fly even faster at all times even with many apps open. I would have incorporated this into the rom, but the developer would rather you visit the thread to get it.
Downloading now. Thanks!
First impressions:
(Background: Wiped all three from "mounts and storage" menu)
Appears to be based off of MIUI Android (UK port of MIUI) as opposed to MIUI.US. Not sure what diffferences (if any) apply other than the bootani and background. Amiright?
Extended settings built-in is quite awesome.
Noticed MiuiCompass wasn't in there (but DSP Manager was...awesome again). Attached in case you don't have the apk and want to add it in the future.
MMS sent over 3G on first try.
I am not sure which market you bundled with it, but I always go in and remove marketUpdater and add back in the old vending.apk. (This isn't a criticism, just something I do that might be good to know in case I have future issues that may be caused by that mod...I know I am probably rare in liking the old market.)
So far so good. Now I just need to grow a pair and figure out how to swap kernels in the zipfile so I can throw Glitch v13RC1 in there; at which point I'll truly have my "Flash one-and-done".
Great work, Rick S. Can't wait for the full list of changes/tweaks! Thanks again.
Will this work on the Telus version?

Compass.apk should be in there, but thanks anyway. Basically if porting from a "stock" setup, roms wont differ very much at all, but another difference is that the reboot options are capitalized. I would love to have glitch v13 in there, but its not publically released yet. I do install it on mine though. All you need is the boot.img and the lib/modules folder...modules need to match boot.img that was built.

Ive honestly never looked into the differences between the two carriers. Im guessing no because there are probably some rom differences along with the kernel differences.

Looks great Rick!
Thanks for sharing and spending time doing this.
I am going to give this a try now, I am coming from 1.11.4, and I have yet to try the extended settings yet, so this will be great to check it out at the same time.

I wasn't suggesting you put V13 in there. I was just commenting on my own lack of courage to do it myself more than anything. Thanks for the tip though.
Been installing apps and such basically nonstop since install and listening to music on it. No issues. I did update to Glitch v12RC1 right off the bat as well.
So far, this seems to be about as stable as the 9-16 release which has been my fall-back. I've had the fewest issues with that one. Hopefully this one will be my new 9-16. (Will find out when I get home and see how it handles the wifi/3g handoff that seems to have been causing the most problems on the latest few roms for me)

Thank you for the reply. I know there are differences the big one is one cdma and the other is gsm. I did not see the vibrant mention the first time in the OP. if anyone knows of a compatible miui for the Telus version pm me please I would love to try it
Looks great Rick...thanks again. I had issues with the other '11' roms so far and was back on the 10.28. And also big.thanks for the easy instructions for installing super charger....I couldn't get then to stick a month ago....no problems this time ( used your suggestion....will tweak later after I settle in) only issue is google+ fc at start up. I don't use it so not a huge deal.....will uninstall and install new......phone is flying.
Edit: Re-install of Google+ did the trick. Can't believe how fast and smooth this phone is running now.
Thanks for the responses. Im going to update some MIUI mods and put links in the op soon...launcher mod and screen transitions are some.

One random reboot....and no bln. Reboot was when trying to open gmail.

Sorry about that...my gmail seems to work fine though. I used JT's 3 button recovery fix kernel because its probably the most used throughout various roms. It doesnt have bln. You can flash any kernel you like though and it will work fine as long as the kernels allows for it.

GSM and CDMA roms/kernels aren't cross compatible. The phones share a name, that's it, they're pretty different when you get down to the nuts and bolts (or silicon and copper.)

"Hmmm. I just had huge success flashing jt's 3ButtonFix.zip kernel over the 1.11.4, making big improvements in battery and GPS. But this is an upgrade, using the same kernel, even though my current ROM is working fine. Hmmm..." thinks the flash junkie as he tries to pretend he might not go ahead and flash this anyway.
Edit: Of course I flashed it, with the script. Running great. Overnight, battery stays in high 90s.
All I can say is wow!! This is by far the most responsive miui build I've ever used, running the script on setting seven as suggested running glitch v13 ml OC`d to 1440..very smooth, plus have all the reboot options again nicely done, thanks much sir!

In the past the miui builds I've run while being in my opinion nicer to use have always seemed more sluggish than Vanilla or cm7, not now..

No worries....just wanted to throw that out there. I know at the worst I will need to wipe all three. Been lazy and not wiping Data lately. Loving this big time though so the BLN is not a deal breaker in the least.
Ugghhh.. The Glitch app is FC-ing even after going back to stock ED05 and and installing this MIUI ROM from scratch. Any suggestions?

I actually ported the MIUIScotland 1.11.9 ICS framework I9000 rom to the fascinate. It seems the only difference are a couple added files within the framework and a few files elsewhere, along with the version number in the build prop. Its not even worth playing with though. There are no noticeable differences anywhere. Waist of time just in case anyone was wondering or has heard of it.

Now on to porting galnet ICS MIUI?
;-)
First ROM for me. Spent the day half studying for a Calculus final and the other half making this.
Overall I'm very happy with it. Smooth, Stable, and ICS makes it look great.
Disclaimer: I'm not responsible for what happens if something goes wrong. I've tested it a lot and it should be fine.
5/6/12
Removed a lot of Sense and HTC files. Not 100% Senseless yet, but I don't really want to break anything.
Added Apex Launcher.
Added ICS Boot Animation.
Added AOSP Browser, Calculator, E-Mail, Messaging, Calendar
Added working Sprint Voicemail.
5/8/12
ICS Status Bar and ICS Settings.
MMS limit raised and defaulted to 5 MB
Some camera mods.
Added ICS Keyboard. Not default yet though.
Bugs: - I hate bugs. They'll be resolved or mitigated when my finals are over.
Can't seem to find a way to enable 4g on the ICS Notifications...
Lockscreen gets in the way of picking up calls. I consider this a bug. Not a privacy feature.
Music controls don't show up on the AOSP lockscreen. Using LeeDroid's AOSP Lockscreen fixes. Not sure if wallpaper is supposed to show up or not though.
If you find a bug then please PM me or discuss it in the thread.
Todo:
Take some fancy schmancy screenshots,
Theme framework-res.apk, Settings.apk, SystemUI.apk to AOSP ICS. # Half done.
Integrate Leedroid tweaks in a week. # Not really necessary anymore.
Apply some speed tweaks. IMO not totally important b/c there's not much speed gains to be had with much of anything besides cache size boosting or overclocking, but maybe Android has something I've never seen before in an OS.
Not sure of the stability of the file host. Will actively search for a place to mirror.

Install Instructions:
When the leak came out, I flashed Freeza's firmware. IDK what the verdict is on whether or not it's reversible or not, but I personally haven't seen any problems with reception or what not.
With that said:
1. Backup your Data with Titanium Backup or similar. I would also suggest a Nanddroid in case you want to go back.
2. Do whatever wipe style you like. I typically do a Factory Reset and then a System wipe from TWRP.
3. Flash the ics-signed.zip
----- If you want access to 4g or like the Sense status bar or the Sense Settings, do not continue. -----
4. Load the ROM. I haven't been able to avoid the step for whatever reason. Most likely my lack of skill with update-script.
5. Go back into recovery and install the ICS Notifications.

Damn new roms everyday. Think I'll give it a shot.
One thing, the mms force closing. Does the message still go through or no?

It does not. MMS completely works from the stock app though and you can just disable the notifications from the AOSP one or remove the App with Titanium Backup or not.
I was debating putting it in there, but I figured that I liked how it looked so I might as well.

Ok cool. So I can use the stock for mms and the aosp for SMS if i wanted to go that route.

If its FC'ing and the Sense one works, then the aosp mms should probably just ve left out... I know I'll be removing it since its not needed. ROM sounds awesome overall, can't wait to give it a spin.

It only FC'es on MMS. I personally never get MMS. People email me their pictures lol and I also dislike the way the stock messaging app looks. That's why it's in there.

Loaded the rom...everything seemed to work great except for mms...I did try to use both messengers and both failed to work for me....any ideas on what i may have done wrong?
Hmm mms seems to work for me from the stock app.
I'll make an update later and we'll see what happens.

Idk if anyone remembers empiires suprarom but after reading the description in the op for some reason it reminded me of that, using a sense base getting as close to aosp as possible with losing that sense functionality. Any chance this'll be laid out in a similar manner?

Yeah, that's the kind of style I'm going for. I'm going to try to get as close to AOSP as possible until CM9 hits.
I'm hoping this has working camera and all also? I've been waiting for a ROM like this.

Yes, working 3d and 2d.
Had to move the ROM to my server and it's not spectacular so if anyone could mirror it it'd be great. Since Megaupload got taken down I haven't found a good file host that allows > 300 MB.
I'm working on pulling this damn update together with what I want it to have which should theme it to almost full ICS. But the zip just isn't agreeing with me.
You thinking a builds later tonight or tomorrow?
