Root [ROM STABLE] Bugless Beast V0.5 Android 2.2 FRG22D

[GirLuvsDroid]

Just FYI, I've addressed a couple of issues that people were having, namely:

1. The auto-brightness tweak being too dim: If the minimum brightness tweak in BBv0.5 is too dim for you... - Droid Forum - Verizon Droid & the Motorola Droid Forum

2. Massive FCs on completing installation: For Those Experiencing Massive FC Issues after completing installation of BBv0.5... - Droid Forum - Verizon Droid & the Motorola Droid Forum.

Hey Gang, I forgot to mention that the "Automatic Overclocking" I created a while back is now "Smart Automatic Overclocking" which means my ROM will check if your kernel is above or below 800mhz and apply different settings for each scenario for better battery life.

Does this mean there is no need for setcpu?

I'm not using SetCPU. The only reason to use SetCPU is if you want to set profiles with different parameters.

Have any UD8 users tried this yet? If so, how does it compare?

My Droid HATED UD8 (unbearable lag, FCs and bitmap errors), so this is vastly superior for me -- but I note that my UD8 experience isn't typical of most UD8 users.

So are you using the stock kernel or a slayher and just letting Petes rom run it?

Thanks,

I'm using the slayher kernel in my signature, on interactive mode, and I'm just letting Pete's ROM run it.

im gonna have to give this rom another shot my phone didnt seem to like chevy ULV with this rom but was fin on others. slayhers seems to be a good choice.

I am unable to connect to my WiFi which is very disappointing because I basically cannot do anything until I get this fixed. I do not have 3G at my house, not even 1x. I have reinstalled the ROM fresh two times now. It's very strange because after I reinstalled it my text messages are still available which makes me think it isn't properly wiping my data. I am wiping data and cache two times each, with SPRecovery...

 

[jxker]

my wifi works better with the new rom so somehow i think the problem is on your end.....did you wait for the 2 boots?

 

[amr_01]

I am also having wifi issues. I've been having them since 0.4. I was hoping 0.5 would correct the problem. I can connect to my wifi (WPA2), it has weak signal. Even though it connects, I have no network connection.

If only I had seen this post, sooner, as I spent a fair bit of time fixing my search button, today. Anyway, would you happen to know of any issues regarding the browser(s) not loading web pages?

For a good bit, yesterday, the OEM browser would launch, load for a second, then close. Now, both Dolphin and the OEM browser both load about half way, then become hung up and unresponsive.

Any insight/ideas?

Sorry, no insight here -- both the Browser and DolphinHD are working perfectly for me.

I'm using the slayher kernel in my signature, on interactive mode, and I'm just letting Pete's ROM run it.

Which version of Slayhers kernels would you recommend? I'm currently running the LFY 1.5 kernel along with LFY 1.5 ROM.

I'm gonna make this text really big in hopes Pete will see it and answer my question:

Does BB 0.5 include the Stagefright fix for lousy AAC+ streaming audio quality?

Thanks!

The slayher LFY kernels work just great, but so do the slayher v1.6 kernels. I really can't tell any difference.

slayher has version 1.6 out now, available in ROM manager.

 

[RoscoeDpG]

did anyone receive a system update? and im on v5

 

[Gulfstream]

I'll give Slayhers V1.6 a try, I've been real impressed with his kernels.

If by system update you mean a Verizon OTA system update, try this: http://androidforums.com/droid-all-things-root/179578-how-do-i-prevent-ota-updates.html#post1609305

Really slick ROM so far. Though, it feels kind of bloated with apps that are included. But those are easily removed. The smart overclocking seems to work really well also. I uninstalled setcpu and am going to give this feature a run for a day or two

 

[EAK128]

Great work as always Pete. One minor issue I have found don't know if it's a Rom thing or just my phone not playing nice, Chrome to phone is not working. Tried disconnecting and connecting also signing out from the desktop, still a no go.

Have any UD8 users tried this yet? If so, how does it compare?

Two totally different beasts (pun somewhat intended), so it's like comparing apples to oranges. UD is all about customization and BB is more focused on a nice combination of speed/customization/stability. If you've used BB in the past, this is a better version of what's come before.

I don't understand how you can say it's bloated when you can remove more apps than in the standard FRG22D ROM - there's literally NOTHING Pete added that you can't remove, app-wise. I realize you mention this, but I just can't reconcile you calling it bloated with the reality of the situation. Is this your first BB rom, out of curiosity? Because Pete's done the overclocking before, and while this is an improved version of it, it's always worked really well, in my experience.

Great work as always Pete. One minor issue I have found don't know if it's a Rom thing or just my phone not playing nice, Chrome to phone is not working. Tried disconnecting and connecting also signing out from the desktop, still a no go.

Just tried it out on my phone, and it's not working either - Chrome says "Sent to phone." but nothing is coming through.

---
On an unrelated note, yes, I am cheerleading for this ROM twenty days or so after I predicted it would never come out and derided Pete for claiming 0.5 was coming with no tangible progress to be seen (other than by a few beta testers) - this should tell you something about how good this ROM is. Not only have I completely eaten my words, I've also begun to champion this ROM. If you're on the fence, TRY THIS ROM OUT.

 

[ChronoVII]

loving the rom! definately smooth! but having weird issue. is anyone else's "Search" button not working (the magnifying glass button)? a long press still brings up voice search, but a regular press doesn't bring up the google search bar.

any ideas?

 

[jestexman]

No Chrome to Phone for me...... Other than that running great.
