The New Guy



The original rom, Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo, came from here and was created by Myn over on the Evo threads.

Ive been wanting to do an Incredible Rom for a while now, and heres what I've come up with.
This is based on an Evo Rom, and it uses the full Evo frameworks. Yes that means that Evo themes will work :)

-Internal memory 100% mounted and avaiable to all apps
-Verizon apps in market, Sprint apps on SD - BOTH WORK! (Sprint TV and Verizon Skype for example)
-EVO Camera with 8MP Camera, and 720p Recording
-Optical Trackpad wake
-Three in One Reboot options (Recovery, Bootloader, Regular)
-Custom Rosie (Custom themed launder and semi transparent app drawer)
-Beautiful screen transitions
-Goregous theme
-Evo apps
-Circle Battery with percentage
-Max attatchment size bumped up to 5MB
-APPS2SD


Issues

-Outgoing MMS

Credits

  • Koush for Rom Manager and ClockWorkMod Recovery
  • Myn for creating the base rom
  • SNQ for the AWESOME three in one reboot menu
  • Deficitism for his crucial work on Sexy Rosie
  • I grabbed pieces of a lot of themes when i was putting this together. If your name isnt on this list and you feel you contributed in any way to this project, let me know and your name will be up in a flash! :)


Downloads

Instructions
  • Download rom manually or through Rom Manager under Andrizoid's name.
  • Do a backup and be sure to complete a FULL WIPE.
  • After flashing the rom, you have the choice to apply the themes or not.
  • Download MetaMorph from the market
  • Open MetaMorph and select unzip new theme.
  • There are 4 possible themes. If you would like to apply all of them (which i reccomend) choose BigDaddy.zip. It contains all the files for the other three.
  • Choose apply all. You may be prompted to reboot after.
    [*]After getting everything set up, check Rom Manager for an update. It will then push a small patch update fixing your music widget, giving you the correct apn to restore and the app to restore it with. This update also deletes the junk Sprint apps until i get a chance to look at them again and see if we can get them working.

Aaaaannnddd I'm back. I'll preface with saying this is the only Rom thus far I have considered keeping, period. WiFi is working I've had virtually no time with the Rom yet however the only thing I don't like so far is the keyboard its pure black with white letters and green sub-letters. I scored slightly over a DX w quadrant. Id like to put a DX keyboard and I think I'd have a Rom I might actually keep... and suggestions on how to get a DX keyboard I'm still newbish at roms :) p.s I'd also like to remove the satellite in the notifications bar, this possible?

im going to be including a read and black swype theme when the guy gets back to me, it will look better than the HTCIME on there now. for the DX kb all you need to do is plop it on your sdcard and install it like anything else

and i dont have any specific mods for hiding icons. sorry

Be careful with including swype in your ROM, it might be considered distibuting an illegal app which is frowned upon by some forums.
Awesome looking ROM though

im not including the app, just the theme

Very nice ROM. One question though.

I tried using 'Check for ROM Updates' on ROM Manager and it ran the first time but then stopped. Now when I use it, it tells me that it is a premium feature. How can fix this, besides buying the pro version of ROM Manager?

no idea. sounds like a momentary issue with RM, has nothing to do with the rom

What is New Guy #3?

its a rom xD
