Hello devs. I was wondering if n e one could make me a deodexed 2.2 rom that is themed black and red with blur, with custom icons. Pretty much like stock with the exceptions of the bloat, yet keep the dialer settings (##program#) and such. Would greatly appreciate it.
Edit: if posted in the wrong section pls move. Just thought since it pertained to development that i should post it here. Thx mods.
flash a deboat rom, and theme it yourself. there is a good guide in the dx wiki. i have personally tried some theming and to be honest, its not that hard.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=749333
i have. but most of them remove the programming menus. thats y im looking to the devs for help. or a fast way to deodex and debloat my stock rom. tried rubix blurry but it kept giving me problems with my net. and marketplace.

why do you need the menus? if you really need a rom, make it yourself. it cant be THAT hard for a simple debloat...
it shouldnt be. but working 60+ hours between 2 jobs gives me little to no time to work on my computer. otherwise i would have. i usually download roms through my phone and then flash em.

oh as to why i need them, im on cricket service so i have to have them for when the phone decides to act stupid and switch up the settings. which happens every now and then with the stock rom for some reason.

Just as an fyi... without any java programming skills, it is VERY hard to develop a ROM. I'm not trying to be rude, but you can't just decide, hey, I want to make a ROM and do it. Having some background in java development helps. And even then, it would take some knowledge of the way Android is built, as it has its own classes and activities that aren't native to Java I believe.

I'm willing to test any and all roms, themes etc. for any devs. Just let me know. I'll be getting a different phone so I'll just use the Zio as a testing ground!
okay guinea pig... since the rom seems to be deodexed. see if any of the blackbar mods for froyo work
I'm already a step ahead of you. Ill post what works tomorrow.

Sorry for the late reply. I've tested three of the black status bars without any success. Still learning.

Where is the status bar located within the file system? I want to see if there is anything I can do.

I found the location of the status bar. Check my thread for more info. I think we just need to do a little work.

Well Im going to teach myself Java because supposedly it is prerequisite for learning to develope for android. I came across good 101 Java tutorials online. I just really want to mod roms for my zio and maybe even start creating an app.
Any ideas?
I'm currently taking Linux+ so I should be of some help.
Sent from my Zio using XDA Premium App
Yeah I'm not going to start taking OS classes for my major until I start taking core classes. In either case Im going to start early with Java. My school library has older editions of Java textbooks I think but I'm to check them out AZ well.

You can develop full apps with java and xml for the layout. Being familiar with linux is also a must, since android is just a linux flavor.
http://www.thenewboston.com/ is a great place for a beginner or guru. Tons of video java lessons as well as android development.
Linux has helped me with the file system. Although I still have alot to learn before I am any kind of guru.

everything of importance on android phones is written in java.
But the kernel and file system is Linux based. You have more on your phone that you wouldn't think you would have on a phone.
Sent from my Zio using XDA Premium App
Yes, the OS is linux based, however all the apps are java based.
Here, read this
Its from cyanogen himself. Good place to start if you want to get involved with android.

The Android platform is basically a linux flavor. It contains more then a linux the file system and kernel. Yes exactly what I posted, Java may be used in android development. That is not the only language, There are a few others including C.
Thanks for claryfing the different programming languages and their relevance to the cell phone structure and android OS.
Java and linux are both important for exploiting and developing in other words.

Update.zip for CWM or what?
It is very late here but tomorrow I will upload my rom with this kernel. The bugs are fixed so I just need to test it a little bit.
Oh,well !
Thanks for sharing.
Awesome! Another Dev is jumping in!
Thanks!
good work...wait for your release
I always staying for u...
nice...
Good to see that our community is growing up.

Sorry but my rom will be delayed because I deleted it by mistake while deleting another files. For my luck I always use ctrl+del which deletes files permanently.
Aouh sorry about that. :/
Sent from my LG-P970 using XDA Premium App
I'm completely pissed off. I'm going to make it again but it takes time to check everything and I have been working on it for a long time with the help of noejn since I'm giving my first steps at dev. I'll do everything to make it as quick as I can but I'm not going to tell any dates. Please tell me things that you would like to see in my rom like apps features or others.
lg weather widget would be appreciated, DSP manager, no shutter sound, appwidgetpicker by default, remove some confirmation popup like when shutdown or when mount usb mass storage.
thx for your work

I suggest, that Your rom should be as clean as possible.
Everybody then can install all the crap they like
That's it man. I like it as clean as possible. But I also like to know the other users opinions because together we can make it better and many people thinking is always better than just one.

In this first version no. I'm putting all efforts at performance and stability and not at theming. Of course that I'm going to make some changes and try to make it clean and good looking but that's not a priority.
Thanks a lot for the dedication . Cant wait to see this community keep growing

What I want to see...
I hope this wouldn't be too much for you...I wanna see at least:
- smooth ui, something like zeam...
- dont remove widgets like calender or messaging! or if u can add others
- root explorer as default file manager!!
- can be OC to at least 1200Mhz!!! PLEASE!!
- other cool stuffs!!! PLEASE!
I already released the rom. Use this topic only to kernel-related situations please.
I read a certain thread last night from beginning to end both had good points from both sides that made me think a little bit and i thought i would put this list of apk files together real quick hoping it might help some people out there.
I take no credit for any of these what so ever! it is just a list of apk files I have gathered from my learning and flashing of my own personal phone.
thank you to all the devs out there for putting together all the roms, themes, hacks, tweaks, fixes and all that you do! I greatly appreciate all of you and all of your work! and dealing with people like me (junior member) and our noob questions.
Disclaimer: I am in no way responsible for anything that goes wrong with your phone from flashing these. I am not responsible for what you choose to do with your phone.
Well with all that said here is the list:
(seems i can only upload so much at one time so this is broke up into several posts)
more apks......
more apks........
MOOOORE......
still more...
more!!!!!!!!!!
ive done a lot of flsshing as you can see
cuz i got more!!!
i sure hope this helps someone cuz it definitly taking some time lol
still going.....
still more.....
and more...
this is it all done for now.
Awesome but for apks like email remember to say which build its from because froyo version usually only half work on ginger

thx but i suppose they will have to just try and see if it works (and hopefully they do a backup first) for those then cuz i honestly have no idea what its from ive done plenty of flashing on my phone (some froyo and some ginger) and got these over time when they were included with whatever i flashed.
Just pull which ever version you have on your phone now and replace it

isnt SetCPU 2.24 a paid app..
SetCPU
as for the rest of the apps wouldnt it be easier to have bundled them all together in a zip folder and have users download from megaupload or other fileshare websites.
EDIT*
But you can download 2.24 setCPU on that link from the developer?
im confused..
The dev gave it away for free to any one who bothered to look on xda first so it should be okay unless he specially said were not allowed to distribute on xda
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
I think you are supposed to redirect to the original thread for set cpu. There are many better apps for OC'ing anyways.
are these all themed or something? seems that quite a few are already readily available in the market.
are these all themed or something? seems that quite a few are already readily available in the market.
They r not themed, in op this is just what I've collected over some time and thought I would share it with all of xda, there is just about every stock apk that comes with the epic out of the box. in case for example someone flashes a rom and wants the stock "feedsnupdates widget" back after flashing now they can get it easily. I thought this might help some devs out there not to have to answer some questions repeatedly in a rom thread. The others I just had so posted all of them. If u don't need/want any of these don't download it, should u ever though beause u flashed a rom and want something that wasn't included it in then u might find it here.

Is anyone working on a rom that has only what it needs to run? I would like to start from the least we can have without problems and would like to add the things I want in myself. Im not a dev and not to much time to learn with working all the time or I would do it myself.

First, I can't post in the GingerHome ROM post under the Revo Development forum. I guess maybe because I have less than 10 posts? The forum rules or something will not let me. That is why I posted this here.
After I installed this ROM from the zip through clockworkMod I rebooted and I get the following error:
The application Home (process android.process.lghome) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
I can tap "Force Close" but it immediately keeps popping back up so it basically locks me out. I rebooted and restored back to stock, but I was wondering if anyone else had this problem? I know mtmichaelson is focused on GingerVolt ROM and it was nice, but it was too stripped down for me. I wanted to keep some of the stock apps like the weather widget and I liked getting the email and messages on the lock screen.
It is just me or my phone, or is it some coding in the ROM?
mtmichaelson, if you read this, keep up the good work!

Try redownloading and flashing the new download. The GingerHome is not a rom, it is just a add on for GingerVolt hence the reason nothing really changes in it. It is basically just the stock LG stuff to go on top of GV. Let me know how it works.
Sent from my VS910 4G using xda premium
Ah ok. So I install GingerVolt, then I install this? This just adds onto the GV. I got it now. Yeah no wonder I was having problems. I just installed GingerHome over the stock ROM.
I am such a noob to all this. Of course this is my first Android phone though. (Came from BB). This phone is soooo much better.
While I am at it, what does it take to develop for this phone? I saw something about Kitchen sink(?) to develop ROMs but I guess it does not work with the Revo?

For this phone in particular a lot of time and patience lol. The Android kitchen only helps when dealing with the boot.img on this phone, but does require Linux to edit. Other than that there are several other tools out there depending on if you are wanting to modify smali code, or apps. If you are wanting to get into it, come to the irc sometime, there are several of us that hang out on there at night.

As a OO developer, SMALI makes me want to shoot myself in the head...
It's like editing ILDASM, only it seems less intuitive.
I flashed to GingerVolt 1.3 and then put on GingerHome. Everything seems to be working great. Now, when ever I hit the home button, I get a popup asking to complete this action with LG Home or ADW.Launcher. I like LG Home as the launch as the ADW one would disappear on me sometimes or I would would accidentally delete the apps launcher and have to add it back.
If I set the LG Home as default, is there a way to switch back to ADW if I want?
I think starting with an app would be better for development, but how much time does it involve? Also, how do I get into IRC? and what time is "at night?" I have a 13mo and I never know what time I might have to getup so I don't stay up late anymore.

You can make the LGhome as the default launcher, and if you want to reverse that, go to settings>applications>all>lghome click on LGhome and press the Reset Defaults button at the bottom.
Developing apps, go on youtube, and type android developing tutorials. Obviously it will not be easy from the start. It requires basic XML and java language knowledge which will take getting used to
