[Aplus]

this looks interesting.

If you're on 2.2 try it out and let me know what you think.

 

[TheAmazingDave]

Nah, I have 2.2.1 unfortunately

 

[starstress]

Im also on 2.2.1 but looks like you included the works on this rom, kudos

 

[Deleted User]

I'm on 2.2.1, and occasionally have problems with CM7. Really would like to try this out.

 

[somedood81]

Disappointing this is made for 2.2, pretty small target audience.

 

[alfick3]

Thanks for this, and congrats on the first ROM. I will give this a try.

Oh, what are the symbols and the "90" next to the time?

Thanks. I just took everything I've learned so far and put it in the ROM.

 

[Aplus]

Disappointing this is made for 2.2, pretty small target audience.

That's exactly why I made it. I've had this phone since late December and never had a reason to upgrade and no one is making 2.2 ROMs.

 

[Aplus]

Thanks for this, and congrats on the first ROM. I will give this a try.

Try it out. This is way more complete than the other one I gave you.

 

[Aplus]

Oh, what are the symbols and the "90" next to the time?

Those are wifi and cell signal, and the number is battery percentage.

 

[alfick3]

Those are wifi and cell signal, and the number is battery percentage.

Ah. Ok. Is that standard, for the battery %? I like that idea much better than using a widget for the battery percentage.

 

[Aplus]

Yeah, that's included in the ROM.

 

[alfick3]

Yeah, that's included in the ROM.

Wonderful! I think I'm going to try it today. I'll let you know how it goes.

 

[TheAmazingDave]

I'm on 2.2.1, and occasionally have problems with CM7. Really would like to try this out.

Ditto. The CM7 port we have availalbe is too buggy for a daily user. I actually use the phone, and it's frustrating when I need to use a touch tone in a call, and the screen just stays black... 70% of the time, the screen stays black when I need to see it. Very frustrating.

I really appreciate reppard's efforts, but would love some of the features OP included in a solid ROM release.

 

[alfick3]

Well, I have flashed the ROM. The boot did take a long time. It also got to a point where the back and forth light stopped. So far it's just sitting there. I'll continue to watch and see what happens.

 

[alfick3]

Well, all seems to be good. I had a couple of hiccups but got it all worked out. Great looking ROM, thank you for it.

 

[Aplus]

Thanks.
Don't forget to report any bugs you find or ask any rom specific questions you have.

 

[Deleted User]

I'm originally 2.2.1, now 2.3.3 because of CyanogenMod7, but I"m interested in this ROm, so someone post some more pictures and maybe a boot animation video, and custom themes they made using this rom.

 

[alfick3]

Thanks.

Ok, so far I've found these two apps to not work:

Gasbuddy (The application GasBuddy (process gbis.gbandroid) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. Kill it or Snitch). I've clicked on the snitch button, and hit the Kill it button now a couple of times.

c:geo; I can open it, but when I click on the Live Map button, it gives me (The application c:geo (process carnero.cgeo) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.) message. I can click on the Nearby button and it works.

I'm not sure why they don't work. Gasbuddy won't work at all, c:geo partially works.

 

[alfick3]

This is my home screen:Screen Shots

I'm not sure why it's cutting off the bottom.

Okay, I'll dl gasbuddy and see if it works for me. What is c:geo? I've never heard of it. Btw, are you using these with gps on or off?
