I'm trying to decide if I want to go to the premium rom manager. I've been loving on some skyraider for a long time but I keep hearing about miui roms. Any suggestions?

i wont go premium until they fix it for HTC Incredible. When using ROM manager, after installing a ROM from the app and going in to recover autmatically(it gives you this option after the inital download) after the download it wont install automatically. I have to go toggle the the security(or whatever its called)disable and then download from sd card and look for ROM manually. I have reported to the deveolper but never no responce. But I would love to use the ROM manager how its supposed to be. If it loads the ROMS for you automatically I would suggest on buying. Great App!

I've been using it on my dinc with absolutely no problems. I've used it to flash more roms than I care to think of. I don't know why you're having trouble.
OP: Support the developer, I got premium.
I guess my real question is is the miui rom worth paying for rom manager?

Same here. Other than Clockwork Mod having issues since I have a new SLCD Dinc (for which there are fixes) the app works flawlessly. I bought it if only to support the developer.

I used MIUI for a day and wasn't all that impressed. Yeah, it was flashy and shiney and new, but once that wore off, it wasn't anything special in my opinion. Went back to SkyRaider.
Its worth it if you like how the roms look i like them and ive never had a single issue
Besides miui and cm nightlies what other benefits are there from going from free to premium?

I do agree that supporting the Dev is nice and that's why I don't use the ad free app.

Doesn't it let you install from SD too or something?? I kinda of went premium aright away

ROM manager is a life saver for me, i have had zero issues as well. bought it to not only support the dev but because it's just an essential app for any ROM flasher.
i use adfree because i dont like apps that send personal information to ad agencies. it's a privacy issue for me. i buy apps if there is a version available.
Can't you just download the roms yourself and flash via recovery? That's what I do....never have to use rom manager unless I want to fix permissions or something.

Rom manager premium is a great app. Way too many benefits like "Fix permissions".
Costs lesser than the value of the time you have spent trying to figure it out. Seriously!

Well worth it!
Install ROM from SD Card
Download ROM
Check for ROM Updates
Install from QR Code
Manage and Restore Backups...
- Restore
- Rename
- Delete
Backup Current ROM
Fix Permissions
and more!
I bought it to support the developer first, but it has been a great lifesaver. On the other issues you brought up:
- Works fine on my Incredible, all the features with no issues
- MIUI Rom looks beautiful, but works only ok. I was running into all sorts of different issues, not the least of which being file locations and then it did something to my SD card that caused about 4 hours of rework. Fortunately I have been flashing since my Windows Mobile days and am finally smart enough to keep a full backup of everything I really need. I will say that it seems to run the fastest and in the smallest footprint though.
- I agree with the GamerZ, I went back to SkyRaider as usual. Rock solid and stable.

That's to bad it doesn't work for you.
Works fine for me with most ROMs.
Currently running Skyraider3.3.3 and it works fine. When I upgraded from 3.3.2 to 3.3.3 I downloaded the ROM with ROM Manager and was given 2 options:
1. Backup Current ROM
2. Wipe (can't remember the exact words in the menu)
When the ROM was Downloaded there was an icon in the notification bar, I clicked on it and it said "Download Complete". I clicked on the notification and my phone rebooted into recovery, done a backup - installed the ROM and rebooted my phone.
All with no user interaction other than clicking the notification to start the process.
I have had other ROMs that when I try the same thing it will not reboot to recovery. I have to manually reboot recovery (I usually do it from a command prompt) then it will start the install.
On those ROMs selecting "Reboot into Recovery" didn't work either.
I have used it enough that I think different ROMs handle this differently.
I've never had any problems with rom manager. I always download my roms here on xda (like miui, for example) and flash them through rom manager, though.
Premium didn't really have anything I needed, but I got it anyway because koush is awesome.
Hello all,
My first post here, I'm checking out friend's phones that have GB running and really like the way things look and feel. Also seems to have more options or functionality over 2.2... I was wondering what the most efficient way to go from Liberty 2.0.1 over to GB would be? I really haven't wanted to change form 2.0.1 since i've had it basically the speed and function is nice as is... Is there a good reason to go to GB from Liberty and and how? Appreciate the help!
Cheers
I say GB.
I believe that you can get a GB Liberty ROM from the donate Liberty Toolbox.
Sorry I can't help you out any further.

Well, I say you do yourself a favor and upgrade to rooted GB! If you like Liberty so much, you can buy the Liberty Toolbox and get the GB Liberty ROM (and support the dev at the same time), that way you can have both. The Liberty ROM is being updated regularly because technically it's not out of "nightly" status yet, but it is VERY stable and works great. The cleanest way in my opinion to get from where you are to rooted official GB, is to SBF back to stock froyo, and then use the 2 part GB install (I'll link instructions to both). Here's how to sbf http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0jrXqqiepI. After you do that, follow these instructions using the files located here (use method two which is listed after the line that says "Patched update.zip (not signed)" in bold) http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/...-5-596-release-thread-something-everyone.html. Once you are done with these steps, you can get the Liberty Toolbox and open it. Hit the "ROM Manager" tab, then "Nightlies" tab, and click on the latest Liberty Gingerbread rom (currently v0.8) and it will guide you from there. Enjoy!
Thanks!
@rruready, @Lofi Goosh-
Really appreciate the info! Super awesome I am gonna try doing it now- Thank you for the messages, hope your days are great and have a good weekend!
I'll post my results here when I get things set up-
Cheers!
Liberty GB .8 is pure win.

If your looking to get a lot of different options, go to cyanogenmod. The only thing not working on it is the camera and gps, but it is way worth it. just look up a video on youtube of cyanogenmod 7
CM7 is what I'm running and there are definitely more bugs than just the camera (which has a workaround) and the GPS (which there is a fix for); however, I'm still using it because even with all the issues, it's still rocking my world.
CM7 for the Droid X (CM4DX) can be found here:
http://rootzwiki.com/showthread.php?389-ROM-BETA-CyanogenMod-7-for-the-Droid-X
@ Maltmix, you may just want to try both Liberty GB and CM4DX as it really all depends on user preference.
Thanks for the great links and advise everyone! In regards to SBF, I think I have everything set up I had downloaded the 2 part file for 2.3.340 installed RDSLite, and installed motorola DX drivers, but RDSLite won't see my X.. I noticed alot of folks were saying something similar, not sure what to do from here.. I want CM7 but want to wait till the bugs are more polished lol shiny bugs! ; )

I was able to find an alternative to RDSLite for you. The instructions indicate easy use... the definite plus side is that you can burn these ISO's or put them on a flash drive to SBF from any machine.

Gingerbread Camera
I have Rooted Gingerbread on my X now, went to the Liberty 0.8GB Nightly, and all was well.. I was prompted to update or modify if i wanted via Liberty, and did that, but upon recommended reboot, i got stuck in a bootloop..
Lots of time and patience later, somehow finally got into recovery and re-flashed GB..
Everything is back on my phone, but the stock camera isn't the updated one that froyo and GB have, it's somehow reverted to the earlier not so good camera..
I was wondering if there is a way to update the camera to the most current google camera?
Thank you guys and gals so much for the assistance, I hope to be able to help other people someday too!
Thanks LG! I should try cm7dx, too really like it then?

New Android market available for 2.2 and later.
Description from engadget:
If you're on Android 2.2 or above get ready for an update to your Android Market experience. Google has just informed us that a new version of the app is incoming, a version that will add tabs for easy access to Google Books and Movies. Starting with the more visual purchases, at $1.99 you'll be able to start watching movies almost instantly, and apparently see whether Chevy Chase will ever take his family on a successful vacation. But, if offline access is key, you'll also be able to download the misadventures of the Griswold family for later viewing. Books is now integrated too, saving you the hassle of having to launch the books app, which required you to then open the browser to actually buy any digital tomes. Overall the new design looks cleaner, finger-friendlier, and the addition of Editor's Choice apps should make it easier than ever to get to the good stuff. The update will be rolling out gradually over the next several weeks and, once you've been admitted to the club, you'll be able to download the Videos app as well.
Check out the video preview .
This give the hint How ice-cream sandwich UI will look like. Forget WP7, here comes the boss.

I'm guessing it goes to system/app and then set correct permissions after deleting your current vending apk then reboot but someone will have to verify. You need root explorer or es file explorer in 'root explorer' mode or something along those lines. Obviously you need root before evening thinking of try it. Pm me I you need help. For god sack do a nandroid back up in cse you make a mistake an break your market!
is the current vending.Apk permissions.

Yes, it's really awsome! Just a little lagg when pressing the back-button in the Market... It also shows apps I got installed, but I haven't paid for LOL. Unfortunately you can't update them, well you can but you've to pay then for them hahaha.
Have it installed also on MIUI Froyo 1.7.3. Nice thing.
Rename vending.apk to ...bak (rootExplorer), copy new-vending.apk to system/app, rename it to vending.apk, set permissions to xx-,x--,x-- and install it, ignore the error message, reboot manually. Thats it!
@my_immortal What is the difference?

The only thing that's slower is when pressing the backbutton LOL.
App is slow cause it is not optimised for our phones or due to custom rom.
Update has not reached all devices yet.
When you get gingerbread then it will be by default.
Hope devs will work on it and make it smoother.

Hi all,
Just updated to 2.3.3 (Generic AM x10a) and everything seems to be working as promised. All my apps have reinstalled and are working nicely except for one. I cannot get the HTC_IME to work. It always FCs. I have updated it to v27 as per this thread but to no avail.
Can anyone help me get this keyboard up and running? I miss my HTC_IME!
Thanks.
i believe youre missing some libs.
Umm. What libs? How would I find out which ones and then add them?
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
i have a few versions so i'm not really sure but i think this one works for me, if it doesn't work then tell me i'll find another version (please use PM because i don't subscribe to threads much)
Strange, I'm still using the .apk I downloaded for froyo and it's working fine... between eclair and froyo I needed a new version but after that no problems at all.

I also am having a problem with HTC_IME and force close stating process jonasl.ime has stopped unexpectedly after I upgraded to 2.3.3. Even with the apk posted here, it continues. I did what Puck24 suggested by installing clicker, but it didn't help. Any other apk for the keyboard or suggestions?
So apparently since the new Sprint ROMs include swype, swype beta no longer works on the EVO unless I go back to a froyo ROM. However this version of swype that's available with mik g is horrendous. Any one know of a solution to this?
Thanks.
Which beta you using? And I'm using the latest Swype I think but not sprint installed.

just uninstall swype and swype installer, reboot, d/l the newest swype installer and you should be good
That works best. That's actually what I usually do..I'm just delirious right now.

Yeah, i found another thread on this after my post. I tried following the directions but neither the app or the lib file were in my system. I deleted things through titanium before searching and must have removed something important because when I reinstall I just get force closes on restart.
I'm using mikg if it makes a difference. I'm having other problems with this ROM so i might as well just start over. I used mik froyo for ever without problems. I had everything the way I like it. Then found out the details about carrier iq. Rather then try doing it manually I went for the new ROM.
Anyway thanks for the help sorry for the rant.
