Well i installed the rom with no problems. So far i like it, i like the font it comes with. Everything so far seems to be working

ccic2491

Best ROM yet!!! The look is AWESOME!!! THANK YOU!!!

brianmaedche

Thanks :]. There will be,more to come

Lightswarm

Aesthetically it feels more appealing than some of the other ROMs, performance-wise it seems to be smooth...for now. My phone is notorious for doing bootloops when it feels like it doesn't like the clothes its wearing.

But so far so good.

brianmaedche

Well hopefully this works out for ya.I've seen far less random reboots using holo

Lightswarm

Yeah just got a random reboot 20 minutes ago or so. Still far less than Broken Out .

brianmaedche

Well at,least it's a Lil better then.. There will be more work to come so keep checking back. I need a name for this ROM to. It's UN named as of right now. Any ideas lol??

MrB206

Did you mod BO or BP? I ask because I've shifted to BP... No reboots with it and holo.

scott240

I am trying to think of a name but so far nothing wothy of this fine rom. It needs a great name because it will be used by many. I like this rom the best so far so good job guys

steamer86

Would also like to know this. Also, gonna wait till that alarm clock is back in. Maybe ICS will drop first.... LULZ.

HoloS ~ Name

Lightswarm

Yeah so far its the only reboot, pretty satisfied with it but I think its still too early to tell. And I have all the ROMs for the Spectrum under my eye, every single post and update doesn't go without me seeing it, just in case I want to prepare myself for another update lol.

A name huh? Just name it that, Unnamed. .

brianmaedche

It's a modded black plague

brianmaedche

+1 for that name. I like the sound of it.....now should it be HoloS or Holo Spectrum

steamer86

I was thinking Holo Spectrum first, for its light weight and the Holo Launcher, but I shortened it to HoloS.

brianmaedche

I like it. I think that will be the name for the ROM. I will put an update out tonight with the womenfolk back in it. Not sure how I deleted it lol

steamer86

Sweet! Do I get a special thank you for coming up with the name?! Lol

I hate third party alarms, they always give me problems on this phone... Waiting for that stock one. ^_^

Monkeyzluck

Link is dead :/

scott240

Yeah it is i just tried it and gives an error

brianmaedche

Will have new link up shortly. Sorry guys. I need somewhere to host file out of other then my dropbox. Steamer86 you will get special thanks

EDIT
New link is up

Anybody wiping before flashing? Or just flashing over bo and bp?


Edit.... Link seems to be to a screen shot file not a zip.

brianmaedche

Ah shit....I'll put up a new link when I get home. And I wiped everything before installing

MrB206

Nice one. Gonna dl and give it a go. It's doubly good because I won't have to wipe data. I may for good measure, though. :-)

brianmaedche

NEW LINK IS UP AND READY Alarm clock is working in this build now....(Steamer86) :]. Let me know if everything works okay.

ccic2491

The only problem I've had so far is the Bluetooth connection. It has something to do with the BP Rom because it happened to me on that one before and when I switched over to BO it was fine. Other than that everything else is GREAT!!

hollywoods14

Downloading now... Gonna check it out

steamer86

Don't really use BT beside for minimal data transfer, but what exactly is going on?

Flashing now.

IMUcarmen

I see you finally figured out how to change the toggles brian. =]

Nice work man.

I was wondering if you ever figured out how to move the battery? Still looks weird on the end and as we dicussed before it would look much better beside the clock. I have more ideas if you are interested. Get up with me.

ccic2491

When I turn it on, my music and Pandora keep cutting out with or without my headset connected.

I wiped cache and wiped my data, but when I tried installing it it it got stuck in the middle of the ascii syringe scrolling up. I'm gonna do a hard shut down and try it again, and let you know how it goes the second time around.

Update:
On reboot I expected it to go to recovery again and make me install the rom again, but it actually started up the OS. So i guess it worked just fine, just hiccupped when it was done installing I guess

I flashed over bp, only wiped dalvik. So far so good. Like the icons although there is a white line at the top right side of the notification bar, anybody else have this? Not sure how crazy i am with the font type. Over all great work man, runs nice and smooth, functions great nd looks great!

brianmaedche

okay that lil white line you see is Team Battery bar mod. go to your app drawer and select that app. when your in the app click the gears in the upper right corner. on hight i do 5 and i also align to bottom of screen. and you can also change colors from white to whatever you like in there. hope this helps ya

scott240

Am i the only one that is having a little problem with the media volume. I noticed it when i had pandora playing in my car, i had the media volume all the way up and the stereo turned almost all the way up but it still wasnt as loud as it should be. I even notice it when i was watching youtube videos. I was just wondering if anyone has noticed this or if its just my phone

brianmaedche

I havent figured out the battery yet but still looking into it. lets hear your other ideas. send me a pm and we can discuss them :]

brianmaedche

there appears to be you and another person both having problems with pandora. i use slacker radio and i havent had any problems yet. but i will do my best to look into it.

hollywoods14

Also, the stock power control widget functions but the toggles don't show the function.

MrB206

Does anyone else get the line above the notification bar?



I don't think it's showing in the screenshot but it's on my screen.

scott240

Are you talking about the battery level indicator. At the very top of the screen and when you have you phone plugged in it keeps going from the left to the right

steamer86

Working great so far @ 1.8, gps, nav, ect. Full wipe, no reboots so far.

That white bar is the Team Battery Bar.

I disabled it, do not like.

I'm digging this ROM. I have to admit though, I had to install font changer and change the font.

jay6759

Anyone know of any good email widgets that I can use with the Holo Launcher? I really loved the Go email widget, but I can't use it with the Holo Launcher. Anyway to alter the Go email widget to use it with the Holo Launcher?

steamer86

Update: Have had one reboot so far on powering up and trying to open things too fast I guess. Possibly another one or two when I didn't notice or could be a quirk with the battery stats in the stock app. Showed the line and battery drop but didn't strike through WIFI (Weird). There is a quirk with the bluetooth on the Power Bar widget, that if enabled or disabled it seems to get confused with the status bar shortcuts and the Power Bar either locks up or delays (only happens when I toy with bluetooth toggle). This ROM has however been working the best on my phone compared to any other. I've been consistently running everything and some of my own apps @ 1.8, smartassv2, BFQ. Pans and loads Gmaps, Nav, and Waze, perfectly fine and faster than stock ever would. I changed the font also, Arial Bold. Will continue to post updates of my experience with this as they come. As it is now, I'm sticking with this ROM until ICS drops. Thank you all for your hard work.

cac2us

I'm sure it's just a false reading, but when the Megashares file finished downloading, a warning popped up saying something about malicious file.

brianmaedche

ummm not to sure about that. i know that link i put up in the op is clean.

and an update for everyone. working on the next release now. so far i have removed the battery bar mod, changed the font from Droid to Sony Sketch, added a skinable email widget, and finished themeing toggles in notification menu. if anybody has anything they would like added in feel free to pm me.

IMUcarmen

I have used Sony sketch for awhile now. It's a very nice and clean looking font.

A few things that would be cool Brian is if you could theme Swype beta as we spoke about before and change the dialer and in call screen with a darker and more ics feel. I hate that green! Also a more ics feel in the menu would be awesome. For me if the system settings screen could look like it does In the holo menu you bring up with the menu key does, I think that would be awesome and I'm sure very popular.

steamer86

The megashares is clean, match the md5, nothing changed, og file.

MrB206

Which program told you that? If it's kapersky, they have quite a few false negatives, which is why I stopped using it.

scott240

I just used pandora in my car again and it seemed to work just fine so maybe I just had that one problem. I too have had a reboot or two and I have had a few times where my internet just closed on me without warning. But I still love this ROM and I will continue to use it
