Root [ROM] Viper4G 1.0.0

[CriticalCritic]

I'm also having trouble with wifi tether. Ive gotten it to work a couple times, but it's inconsistent.

 

[Rxpert83]

Its because the APK isnt hacked like the old one we're used to from the OG.

All that was done to get wifi tether working was to block the error message that pops up.

You'll still get it sometimes though

Are you guys talking about the Wifi Tether app or the wifi tether in the settings? I have had no issues with the Wifi Tether app.

Tyrone Biggums! I saw him last week down on the North Side in Pittsburgh.

I agree on the anticipation, about to crawl outta my skin!

 

[SamuraiBigEd]

Is there someplace we can all go stand in line to get it?

Posted after midnight -

We made some changes to the system, thing f***** flies now. Will be getting changes to beta testers tomorrow likely.

However, we are having one hell of a time implementing the OTA system. Works for all the GSM devices but its giving us a problem so we really want to fix that before we release 2.0, as we think that's very important. The issue is that the guy who implemented it on our team (m0narx) is a very busy guy and is about to get married. So he has been understandably busy. Just a small update, we are doing what we can

In posts prior to that, he lamented that the previous talk of a final beta were misunderstood.

In posts subsequent to that, he mentioned that they might go public beta to alleviate the hold-up.

He also commented that he would add Google Now as an aroma installation option after the public beta was brought up.

MeanRom uses a publicly available ota replacement, they do not, they've rolled their own.

 

[SamuraiBigEd]

Yeah, I saw that post, the nerve of him letting a little thing like real life get in the way of our update!

All kidding aside while the OTA is a really cool feature I would be fine with manual updates if it got us our ROM sooner. Now that the Premier program is gone I will most likely be stuck with this phone for the full 18 months unless business is really good and something "shinier" comes out.

Here's wishing m0narx the best in his marriage!

 

[Rxpert83]

I agree.

The OTA update shouldnt hold a Rom release back

Am I late for the 5 o'clock free viper give away??

 

[CriticalCritic]

I'd say that, considering the number of people eagerly awaiting this release and damaging their keyboards with drool, instead of delaying the release he should push back the wedding... but I'm afraid the bride will push back!

 

[suprmallet]

We've lived without OTA updates for ROMs since the inception of Android. No reason that the lack of it should hold up an otherwise excellent ROM update now.

If I'm flashing between Viper4G 1.0 and MeanRom 4.x is it better to be on the newest firmware or stay on the 1.22 firmware? I'm getting antsy waiting for Viper4G 2.0 and want to try some new stuff.

 

[EarlyMon]

Newest firmware works fine with the old Viper4G.

Remember, never go backwards with radios here.

And the ota problem is fixed, Vinchenzop handled that one - issue somewhere in the build.prop evidently.

As is the HTC spyware, with prl and profile updates still working, if I read that correctly and I think that I have.

 

[spdkilz02]

Heck I would love to be a beta tester for them.

Stroll over to the Rom thread on xda and express your interest in beta testing. They might take you up on the offer.

Sounds like a bad download.
