Root VillainROM 12.0.0 Final - WWE Android 2.1 by TeamVillain....released!

Bah, i need to wait till tonight now, how is it guys?

So far ... everything just "works", which is what I have been waiting for :cool:

Need to test Navigation and bluetooth sync in my car, but I'll be doing that in the next half an hour or so on the way to work.

Of course, I was using 6.0.1, and the new GSM 2.1 ROM's should blow that out of the water anyway.

Happy so far :D

My mate in work just upgrading to 12 and I can conclusively confirm that not performing a full wipe before doing it will not work :D it wouldn't start the Sense process on startup so it's deffo a good idea to wipe out everything and start from scratch.

Erm, your mate at work is talking poppycock lol:p. Technically. I was already testing the beta version 11.9.1 villain, so it already has the same base. I only did a dalvik and its fine. no odd occurrences.:D

However, if you are coming from say, having villain 6 being instaled on the hero, then you have to wipe everything:eek:.

My fault, for not being a bit clearer in my previous post:(.

He only had Android 1.5 on it and then didn't wipe anything, just loaded a new ROM just to see what would happen. I don't think much work is getting done here today coz we're all messing with our Heros hahaha!

I only just put version 10 on other day...so might as well try this out since its been updated. after this thoe NO more flashing for me, i think its a waste of time cause all we want is a damn official update, nothing amazing happens to my phone with flashing all these new roms...lol just keeping it honest. only downfalls are some things might not work with certain roms.

cheers

Same problem as v11.
Try to O/C to 748800 mhz and it freezes my phone up solid. Needs a battery pull/restart to get it going again. Same thing happened at 710000mhz !


But, if you're on v11, just wiping the dalvik works fine and you don't lose anything.
Thanks stoney

just remember, like pc chips, not all cpu's are made equally..........I have two i7's, one loves 4ghz, the other almost fried. same specs. same batch.

Really happy with this ROM, GPS and Navigation were a breeze ... and it even paused when I took a call over bluetooth, only to resume flawlessly when I'd finished. MMS just worked (first time ever for me with a ROM) ... which was a huge sigh of relief. Keyboard is quick and responsive with Handcent SMS ... it literally "just feels right".

Its took a long time coming (since I rooted), but I finally feel as though I have a ROM I can use long-term ... it is light-years ahead of the ROM (6.0.1) I have used for the last month or so.

:D
