All credit for the UI and menu fixes goes to legmando33.
Also would like to thank Travisholt92 for the support he has provided with issues that have come up as well.
Ensure you are on a ROM either stock or Fusion and your mms is working.
Do a titanium backup of 'dialer storage ' app and data
Install this rom
Restore app and data for 'dialer storage
Reboot
All Htc apps have been removed without breaking anything else.
com.htc.resources file debloated to 1.4 mb
most system backgrounds are now solid black...looks sharp and saves battery.
zip aligned and batch optimized....recompiled apps and framework files cleaning up all the crap not needed.
Please don't ask when this or that will work or tell me that you like the htc app better. If you do then return to stock or find a way to put it back in yourself. If you want any Htc app then this ROM isn't for you.
A word about signal strength....
There is nothing changed in this ROM or any other ROM for this phone that will affect your actual signal strength. The number of bars may be different but not your actual signal strength. I can also assure you that my wimax and my wi-fi are working just fine on 2-fast's v4 kernel. Your results may vary but if you don't like your signal quality on this ROM or any other, return to stock.
If you want USB storage to work push the following SystemUI.apk to your phone but you will loose the transparent status bar. Had them both working together but that was on the old laptop now sitting in my trashcan. SystemUI.apk - 1,000.49 KB
If you can't resist the urge to press your power button while a call is coming in or deal with other minor annoyances, flash a stock ROM.
To have working MMS you need to have a titanium backup of dialer storage from when you had working mms and restore it after flashing this ROM.
- Working Data including 4G
- Working GPS and Bluetooth
- Working Wi-fi and tethering (with WiFi Tether market app)
- Working front (vga) and rear cameras
This ROM is based on the latest update from Boost Mobile and from there was completely debloated. Don't get me wrong...anytime I have restored my phone to the factory image I like the fancy Htc toys and after about 10 minutes of dealing with the lag I am quickly over it.
This ROM features the following....
AOSP settings and status bar
AOSP browser, calculator,calendar
AOSP Mms, contacts, dialer and call screen
AOSP lockscreen with caller ID on the lockscreen
Inverted Google apps (Play Store, Email, Music, Voice and Talk, Google NOW)
Awesome Beats
Visual Voicemail app
Google Maps
Titanium Backup (free edition)
Torch (flashlight)
Super User
This has has look and feel of AOSP with more changes coming soon. Over 500 Mb of system storage and 1 gb of data storage available on first boot. More room for what you want, not what Htc thinks you need.
other Known Issues
-No ESPT or OTA programming so you would either need to restore to your stock backup or do it on a computer
-minor bug in languages menu that closes settings after you change the language setting
The installation of this ROM will wipe your Data, System and Cache . Backup anything you want to keep to your SD card. Here are the install instructions.
-Backup anything you want to keep
-Backup your current ROM
-Reboot into CWM recovery
-Wipe Data factory reset
-Install zip from SD
-Reboot
- Check to make sure everything works before flashing a new kernel
Any issues, please do not PM me. Report it here in the forum so we can help each other out. Be thorough when describing what is wrong and include your logcat info. If you don't know how to use logcat i suggest you keep your phone stock.
This ROM was put together by porting various parts from other devices, incorporating AOSP and Google apps from various sources and eliminating as much HTC footprint as possible.
The reason behind this ROM is to get something happening in this forum. I don't have much experience with this kind of stuff but Google has been my friend.
Credit for the various parts of this ROM go to the following:
-travp624 at RootzWiki for the Inverted G Apps
-ShnizlonV for the AOSP ICS installer which helped get the HtcContacts out and the AOSP in by me flashing a bunch of crap on top of other crap and getting lucky ( Couldn't duplicate)
-JayDogg and Apache Thunder for their installers during testing and the bases for the initial version)
-2fast for the AdvancedPM, the xFuZiiOnZz base and all the work he has done on this phone to get it where it is today
-wajeeh at Rootswiki for the sms popup and stock keyboard
-Downthemachine for the mms fix
-Everyone who said it couldn't be done
-and me for trying anyways
-Anyone I forgot , PM me and I will include you in the OP

Features a very slimmed down framework
AOSP apps
-status bar
-settings
-calendar
-calc
-mms
-email
-google play
....all inverted
Total size of ROM is 171 MB and that is including gapps....the second zip replaces the status bar and settings so it adds nothing to the size. Over 1gb of free storage and over 300mb of free RAM
See previous thread for screen shots
I'll be glad to test for boost. Pm me w/links. I'll do it using 2fast's v4 and v5 kernels, all of this is pending you're interested :P
Can I still get the files? I just wanna have JB as your other rom failed on my evo
This is not jellybean...It is ICS 4.0.3, latest OTA 1.11 from Boost. I already sent you a link. If you have any other questions PM me or one of the other testers in this thread. Thank you
The Following User Says Thank You to HaydenM For This Useful Post:
I took the instructions down for obvious reasons. If you need them PM me...
The reason being I want to get an honest answer on what steps were made during installation and not have the posted instructions recited back to me. Not trying to be an ass but I need reliable feedback and I've already done any possible installation error intentionally when putting this together so I know if that happens here.

Tell me exactly what you did during installation from when you first booted into recovery....I need this info to help
are the other settings working? is it just languages? will it let you switch and then it force closes or does it close right away?
There appears to be an issue with the language option but I am able to change languages and then it closes. It may be a framework file related issue...I just need to know if everything else is okay. Text me if you want. I sent out my number already

Sorry About that Tapatalk didnt alert me on the new message.
when i try to do screenshot , FC --> android.process.acore
I tried to duplicate on my phone but it works every time. It could be fixed possibly by pushing the stock com.htc.resources.apk in adb. If you need help with that let me know. I am going to review my logcat on the language settings issue and take a look at the email app.To be continued.....

I have a Sprint Design that's been flashed over to Boost Mobile. Not sure if a tester is needed for that but if it is I'll volunteer. I've been using 2fast's rom. I've used Kingdom rom for Boost before and it worked smooth. Thanks.

If I've helped you, a thank you would be cool.
Will test us cellular version.I tried your first Rom and I could not get .apk or market place apps to install.but I will gladly try this version and let you know.thanks
I have been playing around with the us cell rom now for over an hour and everything seems to be running really good.i had only one hiccup so far i went into settings>sounds and tried turned up volume and settings crashed,but i reopened right after and it worked just fine every time after.did not have any problem with language settings or any other settings.everything installs fine from Google play,youtube and flash player work flawlessly also.i came from EvilKingdom_v3 and Kingdom_Fastkernel-Ics_V5,followed install instructions to the T.will keep testing and let you know more tomorrow if anything crashes.
I have made further progress on this ROM which is not yet in the download. One of the more respected devs in this forum is looking at the Nandroid backup to see what he can help with and at this point I need it.
I have working in addition to what is in the download, Contacts, Phone, and in call screen. More to come.....
check to make sure everything is working before flashing the second file. Are you on at least version 1.10? If not you should update first. I had a wifi problem related to kernel modules being present in the ROM other than the four included in the ROM itself. There should only be the four included in the zip.
