Root [Boost Mobile] [ROM] ICON rom V2.0 * released 10/16/12 *

I used this for 36 hours and love the colors and theme work. I had to go to something different until a few more bugs get worked out but please don't give up mhannah. :D, The following is just my input on what I would do if I dev'd this rom:
1. Bolder font for easier viewing
2. Background coloring contrast for pop ups and notification pulldown for some apps not showing their texts. Happens every single time with first themes, myself included.
3. Make titanium backup free version a system app.
4. Titanium backup hanging up in batch restore
5. Sticky check boxes issue in keyboard selection and other system selections. Apollostar found a fix for this same problem in his earlier unitology releases

Can't wait for the fixes and updates so I can test again! Again great work! :thumbup:
I havent given up... just been busy with work and life. I started over from scratch. All Of the bugs that I know of have been fixed. Still have some minor theming to do like the keyboard..etc. will try to have version 1.0.2 out tomorow. Thanks everyone for testing.

The previous issues have been fixed except for voice search.
More theming done
Updated system apps
Crt on/off animation
Mx video
in my opinion i think its much faster and more reliable
i hope you like it:p

I agree, its much better now, i can actually use it everyday i love the theme work.

Swipe to remove notifications and a notification bar on the pulldown menu for wifi 3g, brightness etc would be nice.

This ROM is more than worth the wait, great work once again

Is the keyboard sticky check marks fixed mhannah? Are the other things I mentioned in my review good now? :D

Yes.. installed bolder font
Yes.. better contrast. I changed the popups to white background with black text.
Yes... titanium backup as system apk
Yes... keyboard is working fine.

Busybox permissions wouldnt stick and wasnt recognized with the first release which was the cause of the couple problems we had

I personally didnt like the notification toggles. I themed the power control widget if you would like to use that instead.

I do not know how to put this on. I only know how to flash?

Make sure you have a nandroid backup first
You install this as you would install your own nandroid.

Download the Icon rom zip file
Extract contents to the root of your sdcard
Boot your phone into cwm
Wipe data
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik
Select backup and restore
Select restore
Choose the file folder you previously extracted to your sdcard
Reboot when done

Ill have a flashable for this soon
