I know on mine I can add the 2.2 Bar, I think it is from the launcher.

yojoe600 · June 25th, 2010, 06:05 PM

none yet but may try jager's new sense rom but dont see anything better than what i have... i want froyo and sense

Hanneman1011 · June 25th, 2010, 06:07 PM

I never liked the sense, But I do get better battery life without it. Only casues problems with two apps that I know of. Network Widget and Droid Life.

acezhi · June 25th, 2010, 06:07 PM

have tried a few but back on stock until I see Froyo. I need Exchange sync.

Hanneman1011 · June 25th, 2010, 06:09 PM

i can see that being a problem.

acezhi · June 25th, 2010, 06:21 PM

At the moment a big problem, but the only one I have found.
Everything else looks great on the senseless roms.

yojoe600 · June 25th, 2010, 06:25 PM

i need a nice music widget like the HTC one that can read internal memory

Hanneman1011 · June 25th, 2010, 06:27 PM

Isn't there one out there? I just use the stock one. It works fine for me.

yojoe600 · June 25th, 2010, 06:39 PM

stock android or HTC music? and im wondering if it can run without sense?

Hanneman1011 · June 25th, 2010, 06:41 PM

android i don't have the HTC Music Player.

could always try Touchdown... 30 day free trial - by then we quite possibly will have a Froyo ROM to play with ... I've been using TD since I flashed yesterday -so far I like it.... YMMV

he coded it himself....lol he works on the unrevoked team and has done lots of work and is hopefully going to get vanilla froyo stable enough to put on our incredibles!

jasonb1985 · June 25th, 2010, 09:16 PM

i'm staying stock. patiently awaiting 2.2 with sense.

coolbone · June 25th, 2010, 10:53 PM

I'm using CaptJager's 1.1 with Hydra's Low Voltage, 802.11n kernel.

My phone officially flies now. I have great battery life and it's fast; I barely use peep or facebook so sense is useless to me (except the dialer, love the dialer!)

I use ADW.Launcher. Honestly, it is my favorite thing on the market.

Thanks again to NYC Coyote for the wallpaper.

Hanneman1011 · June 26th, 2010, 11:10 AM

How is your speed with that Low voltage kernal? What are your speeds on Quadrant? Just wanted to know. O and what Clock widget are you using. I am guessing that you are using Beautiful Widgets?

Hey man,

What battery are you using? Stock? 1500 OEM?

What's your phone usage like (light, moderate, heavy) and what are the conditions (radios on, brightness level, phone call duration, # texts, browsing, etc.)?

Thanks!

Seidio 1750, moderate usage. around 1.5h calling, 5-6 texts (it's summer, i'm a student, don't have much to do hehe) wi-fi on, gps on, no bt, light browsing, gmail push, exchange e-mail via k9 syncs every hour.

The phone is FAST. I've cleaned it up. Highly recommend 1.1 and now 1.6.1. Everything is much slicker in the UI.

Apparently quadrant doesn't think it's faster though hehe. Says 507 (right in line with stock Inc) will include pic in a second.

Yeah, Beautiful Widgets. my second favorite app! lol

Bearly · June 26th, 2010, 10:21 PM

I used to be fearless with stuff like rooting, now I'm chickening out. Just wish I knew what I could do after rooting: what recommended steps, other things people have done, etc.

I'd like 802.11n and tethering (works on Mac?)
Underclocked/lower voltage for insane battery life
Better low signal dB

ower ratio (possible?)

Still trying to make sense of all the root/ROM threads.

If you put it on the sd card, go to recovery then "install zip from sdcard," choose the kernel zip file, then apply. reboot, enjoy!

Hanneman1011 · June 26th, 2010, 10:30 PM

Ok mine is running a little slower but just wanted to check, got a friends droid that is not up 1151 on quad, trying to catch up to him. Downloading Cyanogen right now and getting ready to run it.

EDIT: Just ran it, too buggie to tell, ran the test and it said 530, just better than stock. praying that a good 2.2 will get better scores

trunklips · June 26th, 2010, 10:47 PM

It seems the link to Jager 1.6.1 is not working. Does anyone have a copy they could post?

Hanneman1011 · June 26th, 2010, 10:55 PM

I am working on the link right now.

Here is the link

Bearly · June 26th, 2010, 10:59 PM

So what are the different ROM options right now and what are the differences? Which one is most stable? Which one gives the most features?

Is there a page I can look at?

Sorry if questions are annoying. I just want to do things right (root!).

Hanneman1011 · June 26th, 2010, 11:06 PM

Jager 1.0 and Jager 1.6.1 seem to be the most stable. Cyanogen Has a test out of 2.2 on here but it is real buggy. And there are also some kernel overclocks too.

This is inadvertently the link from the first post, might as well leave it.

I never thought of that. That will work for the short term.

what clock widget is that? I really like it!

coolbone · June 30th, 2010, 09:23 AM

Hehe, it's Beautiful Widgets (paid) with the Boca weather skin and Obsidian theme with like 50% transparency. I wish I could export. Maybe I'll suggest that to the dev.

From my Incredible Drooooiiiiiid.

dpatrickv · June 30th, 2010, 09:54 AM

Im using the new unrevoked ROM. I liek it so far. Sense is removed and phone is quick.

leebsammy · June 30th, 2010, 11:21 AM

unrevoked rom? what rom is that?

and im using yetti or w.e its called, very fast and stable stock vanilla.

gabetron · June 30th, 2010, 03:26 PM

Anyone try Jagers 1.7 rom yet?

ssandler · June 30th, 2010, 04:03 PM

Quick question - how can i get beautiful widgets. I tried through the market but my credit cards didn't work and they say they are invalid. (i purchased something with same card immediately after). Is there a special setting or payment method I can do?

DonDraper · June 30th, 2010, 04:11 PM

I'm waiting for a true vanilla 2.1 or 2.2 rom that has everything working (gps/bt/etc.) before trying anything. I also hope a true kitchen gets released one day!

Uhh, Try a different card? Visit the dev's website and buy from him/her directly? I had no issues buying that app.

Hanneman1011 · July 3rd, 2010, 10:18 PM

For those wanting a 2.2 ROM, Cyanogen is is working on CM6. We should have one here pretty soon. I think Jager has a vanilla 2.1 out already. Check the site with the roms.

Do you have any issues with it draining your battery?
I don't know what does it but that widget drains my battery in short order. It went from 80% to 40% in about 20 minutes and the battery says that widget uses 62% of the battery in that time span!! WTF? I think it may just be a setting but man that's like the black hole of battery juice. I hope it's just some setting I have going wild because its a nice widget but if I go from 100% to 0% in an hour and a half I'll do without

I've had that widget from day one and it's been fine. I just went a little over 33 hours uptime with about (2 hours wake time). I wonder if you had an older version that did that?

Nope brand spanking new bought it just two days ago.
I don't know it seems like sometimes this Dinc just leaks power at and incredible rate. Some days It seems fine but other times it will lose 20% or more an hour for no apparent reason (well the battery usage blames it on BW lol).
I still haven't figured out why "Cell standby" uses so much power. Looking at the battery usage It looks like it takes as just as much power to sleep as it does to use the phone.

I'm hoping the droid X doesn't do this but I'm thinking it's either some app or the OS itself causing some of these power issues.

viperman2008 · July 4th, 2010, 07:56 PM

I'm using a ROM from a developer over at Xda. It's stock rom with either blue or red accent and theme changes. Hydra kernel with 802.11n

I really like your background. Mind sharing?

jonbar87 · July 7th, 2010, 12:50 PM

Jager 1.7.4 with hydra .7 kernel. Amazing battery life! Yesterday I unplugged my phone at 6am, and by 9:00 pm (15 hours later), it was at 50%. Granted...I am using the 2150mah battery, but still I'm pretty happy!

acezhi · July 9th, 2010, 03:41 PM

CM6 and loving it so far even though it has a few minor issues.

cuban11182 · July 14th, 2010, 06:57 PM

Sky Raider 1.8beta. No Camera, and minor bug here and there, but overall really happy with it.

Quadrant Benchmark is in between 720-750
