Hello people.
I have a question.
Currently, there are only 3 custom ROMs with Sense UI:
MoDaCo
fyodor v0.5.3.1
5faif
For MoDaCo to get properly working Market Patch, you have to pay 20$ USD for a subscription. Tried many ways but he didn't want to install Market Patch.
Fyodor's version with Sense UI is REALLLLY outdated and newest versions doesn't support Sense UI.
And finally, 5faif ROM is also REALLY, REALLY outdated, also it has for me unwanted swap enabled (don't want to ruin my SD/NAND)
So, I have a question.
For all the other ROMs, there is no Sense UI. So, what are you using as Home alternative? ADW Launcher didn't work for me (Force Closes). Also, what widgets?
ADW works fine here on fyodor rom 0.6.3.1. It's the best home replacement I saw so far.
Maybe you are trying a wrong version (versions >=0.7 are for android 2.x).
Or maybe you are installing it wrong (you have to flash it as update.zip through recovery).
Also, after upgrade from 0.6.3 to 0.6.3.1 i had to reflash ADWlauncher because it was keeping forceclosing
There is a new version of market for donut that works fine. I just installed this version on new 0.6.3 version and I haven't any problem so far.
And there are a lot of other home replacements that work on tattoo(home++, GDE, sweeter home, zeam, ahome...)
GDE is the best of the bunch for me, tried all of the others, and too laggy/slow. GDE is super quick, has best visuals, and some really good features like an application dock.
i installed awd but i have a problem with a g-sensor...it gived me an error everytime I rotated it...i was forced to disable the screen rotation from settings any solution?
CthulhuROM 1.6 is also with Sense UI....
I recommend "Helix Launcher"
I use Zeam, best home ever with Android 1.6 (Android 2.x => LauncherPro)
Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general
Hello!
Previously (on stock 2.1.1.A.0.6 russian ROM) my market updated by itself to the 2.3 version when I downloaded something from it (2.2 is the green one, 2.3 - same but with smaller font in descriptions etc.). I've destroyed my stock rom today and installed new and fresh ROM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941458
But now my market didn't updated automatically for 5 hours (still looks like as the old one) even when I downloaded all the apps I wanted.
Is there a way to force-update it?

Already did. They are up and should be working now.
Hope you enjoy!
Downloading now. Will flash and report back.
Well so far it seems to be a very smooth ROM. The only issue I have run into so far is Swype not working. Besides that it seems to be a nice functional ROM. Good job.

Thanks, I have tried and it actually worked randomly for my friend and never worked for me. Im not much of a Swyper, but my suggestion would be uninstalling swype, and then signing up for the beta if you use Swype.
Thanks for the report!

Yeah, in the past as well as now, that has never worked for me. It always fails 100% of the time. I have other like keyboards that I can use. I will continue testing for a day or two and report any issues. I really like some of the icons and the animation you have cooked into this ROM. It's surprisingly fast and responsive. Hard to believe that this is your first ROM.

I mean the DarkCore kernel is still just a CWM3 Kernel based off of the voodoo kernel. So in retrospect it should work, that being said I understand what you mean and will flash it right now to test
EDIT: Flash went perfect! Swype is now working, for the next update I will just add that, the coloring doesnt match my ROM, but neither did the original swype, this is actually a much cleaner look. So thanks! Swype is now working

I had problems using the swype theme. Is there a certain procedure for getting this to work? Im using apex rom if that matters. Right now I have the newest beta with no theme.

I used it on apex 7.2 and had no problems.....I've always had to flash it in CWM3 i've never tried in CWM2 so idk?
after about a day of use, im a pleased to day that it runs very smooth and fast and have yet to have any problems. However i do have some suggestions for furture updates:
Add some adblock, most roms have some sort of adblocker in them
Have a way to change the settings on the TW launcher(its sort of annoying have the 1st screen be the default screen, and also the app drawer is unorganized. There shud b a way to sort alphabetically.)
Boot time is pretty fast, but it takes a while to turn off
Personally id rather have stock TW icons, the SGS icons are sort of bland.
Hope this helps. Ill keep u posted on future problems/suggestions

Ya In my next release I was probably going to go with the TW4.5 so people can have the option to edit all the stuff they want.
The Icons i dont know what to tell you cause i kinda like that look but if thats what everyone wants ill be more than happy to change it back
Finally with the ad blocker dont know how to implement that so if anyone knows how I can PLEASE PM me and Ill ad it for the next release without a doubt.
Thanks for testing!
No problem im happy to test. And also i dnt no if its just my phone but the power control widget doesnt work

Hi all, as the subject states does anyone know of a custom rom (slimmed preferably) that has black system UI (toggles, settings, dialer etc) running 5.1.1 for the n910f?
Anyone, anyway possible?
I'd recommend SimplRom v5.
It has a built in themer called SimplTool- it lets you colour everything to whatever you want so I'm sure you could colour different elements to make a black theme of your liking!
Plus it's super fast and highly reliable!
Just read the thread a little as some people have had issues- also backup your apps using Titanium as your google apps may not re-download when you install the ROM (this happened to me but it's a minor bug and the ROM is more than worth it).
Enjoy!
Hope it helps!
For apps definitely try Team Black Out if you haven't heard of them...I LOVE to black out my phones....lol
