[ROM] Velocity V1.2 | LG Ally | Android 2.2.2 Froyo | Sexy | Sleek | Stable

[jmar]

Awesome work on another amazing rom and for that I thank the velocity team. Got the calander back from a backup from titanium I made and everything looks great so far, loving the theme.

Calendar app works...sorta...it shows the month and year at the top but the rest of the screen is blank (white). I flashed the patch on top of Velocity 1.2 (wiped cache and dalvik cache first). Anyone flash the patch on top of 1.2 and have this experience? Spent a couple hours on setup (Wife's phone; don't want to "waste" any more of her time).

Thank you for any feedback.

Truly thankful,

jmar

Welll, looks like I have to concentrate on a different theme for bionic now -.-lol
Any way, smooth as always

if only xda perfected their honeycomb launcher...

So just flashed. Looks amazing! Do I have to flash the 1.2.1 fix as well, or has that been rolled into the main Velocity zip?

Sorry though unless alot of other people are using Mms to send audio I think the features of Cyan mms outweigh audio files.


Im uploading the new full rom also, but over tether it will take awhile, and hope it doesnt mess up

no no, i understand. the cyan mms is way better... but between my wife and i, we send a lot of audio since she's home with the kids and it's fun for all.

savoxis, if i flashed the stock calendar and downloaded gmail from the market, do i need to flash the 1.2.1 patch?

No Clock mod SHOULD be in the scripts. Pretty sure I did it a while back... *shrugs*

I will check tomorrow but your 1.1 zip worked fine. No FCs before (of course not) or after flashing.

Thanks death,

It is included in 1.2.1,

If anyone has flashed 1.2.1 and experienced the blank (white) calender described in the quoted post, please respond...

Not trying to pull a double post here Savoxis; more of a friendly post bump.

Thank for your work good sir,

Can't wait to run this through the kitchen and add my tweaks to it, love this ROM!

Blank calender here as well.

 

[savoxis]

As I am sure you can understand, without an Ally to test this I am relying on other people to make sure things work.... I am sorry that twice my testers have failed to ACTUALLY TEST the calendar.


Can someone please provide me a WORKING calendar and calendar provider apk?

 

[dautley]

how does this compare to stormdroid?

Why don't you use each of them and write a review for us? I'm sure others would like to know.

I have an apk for it but it wouldnt let me install it normally due to it being a system app but i am willing to give that and the files for the titanium backup i have for it. I got mine back from there and its working perfectly. Maybe it can be put in your titaniumbackup folder and be restored from there?

Same issue here for the stock calendar, but I don't use it. I use PimlicalA, which seems to be working just fine. So I'm guesiing the calendar.apk has a bug?

Is there a way to revert back to the theme used in the 1.2 ROM after having changed themes? I don't recognize it in any of the listed themes in the Velocity Scripts.

There will be when I get my internet back on.

For now I would recommend using nandroid

you could go to the UOT kitchen and upload the framework.res that savoxis posted in this thread without making any additional changes, and that will give you a flashable zip that takes the theme back to original 1.2

So i tried using the titanium backup files for the calender to restore it and it works. I have no means of uploading this anywhere right now but if its possible i can email the files to anyone who needs them.

Hmm. 20/20 hindsight. Since I am still mucking around setting things to my liking I have not yet made a Nandroid of 1.2. Well, this may give me a chance to verify whether the new (to me) app backup I just made with MyBackup Root can actually restore my apps to their proper SD card locations. Titanium Backup Root failed miserably in that regard, so I spent 2 hours last night confirming each re-installation of each app (as someone pointed out, Titantium Backup doesn't actually back up apps) and then moving them to the SD. I'll try re-flashing tonight and restoring the lengthy MyBackup I just made to the Ally's SD, to see if it has the chops to do things correctly.

Thanks.

i'm guessing since ADWlauncher is built into the framework, it can't be safely uninstalled, right? I am a Launcher Pro user so I have that loaded up.

I was a long time LPP user until I got sick of no updates and no word from fede. If your concern is the widgets, as mine was, Adroid Pro Widgets in the market are basically exactly the same as the LPP widgets. You do have to pay if you want a 'friends' widget though I think. ADW will do pretty much everything else LPP does and more.

Flashed 1.2.1, unfortunately Gmail is not automatically syncing for me. I have verified background data and auto sync are on, and have uninstalled and reinstalled Gmail from the market to see if that helped. No dice. Other than that, I love it!

UPDATE: problem solved with a good ol' wipe/reflash. Shoulda tried that first

 

[dcooterfrog]

is thinkfree office missing? I don't see it.

but other that that WOW.
other items. adw has an update. should I do it or no because its integrated
I liked my old lg kbd. and gmail (not dark)
i already disabled gingerbread, but the default one looks different. than before

 

[dautley]

is thinkfree office missing? I don't see it.

but other that that WOW.

You should be albe to download Thinkfree Office from the market

 

[savoxis]

I replaced ThinkFree office with Google Docs, Thinkfree is HUGE! Google Docs is almost as good and MUCH smaller

ADW *should* be updatable.... IIRC I tested updating it back when I had a phone. Also the ADW included DOES work with the ADW themes that you find in the market

I have the problem with the Calendar. I have installed Smooth Calendar widget and this pulls in the items fine BUT when I open the calendar it is blank.

Other then this Velocity 1.2.1 is great, very fast
