Totally new to the rooting process, I LOVE THIS ROM!!! Thank you so much for all the work! I rooted to solve the issue with the SiruisXM app, which now works after a tweak, FTW!
totally newb question here, how do i apply the themes? I can't get it to come up in the ADB options and really cannot find a place where it tells me how to install one of the cool themes that accompany this ROM.
Thanks in advance!
You install the theme exactly like you installed the ROM (it's in update.zip format), but WITHOUT WIPING. You install kernels the same way.

If you are using SPRecovery, you need to rename the theme file to update.zip and install it just like you did the ROM.
If you are using Clockwork, you DO NOT need to rename the file. You simply put the theme file (zip file) on the sd card and install using the "install .zip file from sd card".
Does that make sense? Basically, after you install the ROM...install the theme the EXACT same way
Edit...WOW! This kind of late reply is what happens when you don't refresh the page before you start typing! (I'm only an hour or so late on it LOL)

Can you keep a secret, Eb? That's the way I ALWAYS do it (after wiping all partitions, of course)!!
I did the same thing lmao. I can never tell if the theme is the correct way when I do it though, so I freak sometimes. I've had no issues doing it this way though.
Only thing that concerned me was the lock slider, it has no background on it and as I slide it Unlock slides from the far left outside to the inner portion. I'm assuming this is how its supposed to look. xD
This thing is awesome.. easily the fastest ROM I've used to date. Now, while I'm not a fan of using benchmark apps as an arbiter of how good a ROM is, I've gotten the lowest short bench scores in SetCPU (~160), steady 16s in Linpack and high 1400s in Quadrant.. which are new records for me in each of those apps!
Plus, this is the only ROM that I've been able to use 1.2Ghz without any issues!

Yeah, that is how it is supposed to be.

It's not supposed to look like that. The screenshots shown on the second post of this thread are current for this release. With the stock theme as well as the 4 other themes, none of the icon sets were done in B&W.
I'm not arguing with you... if that's what you are seeing, I would like to understand so I can try to fix it.
sorry no screenshots and i'm on another rom. I might be flashing back to 1.4 frozen yogurt later today and if its still like that i'll post a screenshot. but for real, the twitter icon was black and white and the google search icon was black and white also.

Hmmm...I'm guessing you're trying to install this ROM on the Droid INCREDIBLE right?
This is a Motorola Droid 2.2 Froyo ROM (works better if you have the right phone )

Okay...I got you now. I thought you were saying ALL of the icons were black and white. I was thinking the color got sucked out of your theme LOL.
Were you running the Smoked Theme? Take a look at the Blueberry next to it. The B&W is part of the Smoked theme and the other themes offer more color on some of those widgets.
BTW...If I've shared your Facebook and Twitter status updates with the world...I apologize

@anybody who has used the stock kernel and another kernel from chevy or p3Droid... Since the stock is optimized with this ROM, did you find performance the same or better after overclocking to 1 ghz?

Best way to make that happen is to buy the Dev a new phone! That's funny cause I was researching the code 7 failure and then you mentioned the ROM you were running...and surprisingly...I had never heard of it! LOL
If only that were the biggest mistake I had made this Monday...I'd be doing okay now

I've been playing with P3's 1.0GHz kernel. The new ones are really good! Seems like the stock kernel gets moving a little faster...but once you swipe through screen or two...the 1.0GHz absolutely flies!
Edit: I should mention that I am running 125MHz - 1000MHz. Changing your low end clock speed to 250MHz might help speed when waking your phone up.

ok, i went from 1.3 to 1.4 and now my contacts will not update, it says "contact list is being updated please wait..."
if i open dialer one my contacts are there, but i have not been using dialer one for a little while. any ideas?
I'm running this ROM with the Smoked theme...ONLY complaint is the default Icons for Launcher Pro. I want the original white ones lol. I went the link posted on page 1 for the dock bar list and went to the icons section. I can only find the App drawer and Dialer/Phone Icon in white....anyone help please?

Battery life has been amazing with 1.3 and 1.4. I get through a whole day and still have 70% battery.
i was using my usual p3droid kernal designed for this rom. it has given me the bestbattery life reguardless of rom choice. i bought a new battery from verizon about a month ago. i may try a different kernal.
Could be a app using your battery life up check the usage stats in settings about phone
]]
yeah i would have thought so too but i checked and media server used 43%. i have a backup of several roms including 1.3 i tried it again today before i read this post and had to flash back to a didfferent rom half way through the day. at 12:00 i was down 20% lower than usual. i am dl'ing 1.4 now im gonna wipe format and flash hope my battery life is ok because i love this rom. would you suggest i try a different kernal?
I know it was mentioned earlier, but the Smoked theme now has the Tangerine icons on the Launcher Pro bar...any way to get that one changed back Liquid? By the way, LOVE the ROM and will try to donate later this week...
