[ROM][22/07]- Wild Ginger – Gingerbread 2.3.4 AOSP – [DISCONTINUED] - Wildfire Android Development

This ROM is DISCONTINUED
I am sorry to say I don't find the time to further develop this ROM, if anyone wants to continue this ROM please do so. Just pm me and it's fine. Thanks for using this ROM and for your feedback. Maybe in the future I will begin a new ROM project. For now I am only developping a ROM Download Manager for the desktop, keep an eye on the portal .
Go check it out for screenshots and download :

i`ll give a chance this evening ... looks nice

I have been using this ROM for the last hour or so. I did a backup, clean wipe and fresh flash. I have let the new ROM settle and have done a manual reeboot also.
I am a humble end-user and not a dev but thought that I would give a breakdown of some of my first impressions and observations.
I like the boot annimation alot, I also like the lock screen. Both look clean.
I like the orange font used in the status bar and the pull down menu although the "Wild Ginger" wording in the drop down menu is very blury and looks ugly.
The window transistions are smooth as you like but don't feel snappy quick.
I think the new honeycomb launcher is a nice touch but doesn't seem as intuative as the regular launchers such as ADW; maybe it's because I'm not used to honeycomb yet.
My main gripe about the Honeycomb launcher is that it force closes ALL the time. I have been trying to remove the Google search bar widget that is pre-loaded on screen after first boot and it is impossible (and the widgets aren't even locked to desktop). Also I can't ADD any additional widgets - you can select a widget to add but nothing happens!
From the main screen, waiting for the menu to appear takes about 5seconds which is an age. The "Personalise Honeycomb" menu doesn't fit the whole screen and you can see thick band of the desktop down the right of the screen which is ugly.Once in the preferences menu it isn't at all clear what you are meant to do... You can see the "Apply Settings" button but it took me tapping about the rest of the screen to finally make the actual preferance choices appear.
I have tested inbound and outbound calls and wifi both work as standard. The music player has nice interface, camera works and stock browser is fine. I don't like the dark blue highlight that appears when you press on an app icon it looks clumsy.
The numbers 1,2 and 3 are almost cut in half in the dialer and the green phone "call" icon doesn't seem to fit in it's area neatly.
I like H4oxer's work on this ROM and I hope it continues to get better but with these quite apparent bugs I will respectfully wait for an update before I continue to use this ROM.
Good Work tho!

so ...
good review above .... absolutelly uselless to say more ... 100% same opinions as you EDD ! keep going h4oxer !!!

Thanks guys I really appreciate your feedback ! Will work on it!

from his blog - "Used the froyo libcamera.so library to use the camera app, capturing video still gives force closes."
I guess not

No it doesn't work..still looking into that...has something to do with gpu that we don't have!

tried to flash but no luck stuck at splash screen,did wipe,factory reset,dalvik...how long was first boot for you guys?

You'll have to wait 5-10 minutes... leave it for 10 minutes on first boot..

why I cant see any progres in progres bar in recovery,says instaling update ...
(now no progres of writing files) and afther just 10-15 sec instal complete,is this normal? usualy can see progres and takes a bit longer

Yes it's normal, I didn't payed attention at the progressbar while writing the updater file , but it works don't worry. It installs fast because it had not much apps on board. Just the essential.

10min past stil on my splash screen.no boot animatio yet

Wierd. This ROM is working fine for me. Did you wipe /data and /cache?

yes did everything...dont know simple not booting,stucked on splash screen not even bootanimation

OK....first impressions are good. Startup in less than 4 minutes. Looking good. Everything is working out of the box, no force closing or similar problems. Nice themes, Market app is interesting
LCD density set to 115 and dialpad and everything else looks good
need to be done
- icons in status bar - phone signal at least
- trackpad wakeup
- sound on lock/unlock
- 6x5 icons is too much... 4x5 would be better in my opinion
- Home screen - same as above
- when LCD density changed no way to add widgets or apps to home screen
all in all very good rom, but need a little bit of fixing

Totally agree with u.
I hope that in next version it will have trackpad & volumes wakeup to ... protect our Wildfires' poor Power Buttons

Nobody is interested in this rom?

Screen seems off....
But very very very nice concept, when will you be releasing kitchen/ROM?
The resolution choice works on the ui. But struggles with some of the installed apps.
Forgive me if i'm wrong but the top power button no longer turns the phone off?
Nice! A lot of space on the screen. A very nice concept release, real snappy!

CE OS 5.2.21234 (Build 21234.5.0.1)
NO soft reset or power on and off I has to reset by styles to see booting and power hunger
FONT is too small, I have to use Pocket controller - pro
The ROM is green and naked (no applications)
fast booting
It is the latest ROM
phone ,wifi ,bluetooth working
AND. FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSTT
since it is locked and protected
Please please start build it up clean with better applications
WOW!!!!....i like to feedback....dam i have office for next 6hr only to go home at 1am and then bed......but maybe ill still flash it at 1am..
there will be no other rom
i have asked about the concept
i dont care about power button or the lack of your favorite apps
i don't release custom roms
i don't release roms because i dont have time to read all rom complains
i release kitchens
i update kitchens
YOU BUILD ROMS
so is realy that hard to replay and say if you like the concept ?
thanks
not having an x1, have you gone real-vga?
1\it's cool, finally for someone manage to control windows' layout
2\it will be good to make fonts in title bar, bottom bar 130% larger, and 150% lager in system. it will also be good to make layout 120% larger both in title and bottom bars. and icons in start menu seems to be quite big, is it has something to do with the contrast to the surroundings? some sort of layouts seems to be forced controlled its resolution, and it became quite smaller than usual, eg: welcome settings.
3\rom is really fast, and quite amazing smooth in both today and start menu scrolling.
4\making phone call is available, but i think this rom is just a demostration of the new layout. it should be tweaked in further developing since it's too small for x1's small screen. any way, it's cool.

bet ur missing ur x1 now!!!!
sorry for spaming but i couldn help it
it is nice, if this stuff goes into a kitchen i think some very nice roms would come from it. this is what i see:
wm6.5 (only, no SE or other companies stuff)
hi res (looks nice but makes text too small)
very fast (but this may be because there is no other stuff added)
some bugs (bits missing, link turning the phone off, link to hardware keys etc)
but overall a nice concept and i think u should but a kitchen up with the bones of this concept and the the chefs do what they do best, cook something special up
in all honesty if it is realvga it could be done quickly and easily with a cab..
96 or 128 jerpelea?
spot the athena owner
I did try it when I got my x1 (as have a couple of others if I remember well), 96 was too small for me. 128 was workable but not all the resources were there.. I'm guessing that they are all there in the new SDK. After all that's where the original idea came from many many moons ago... lol

[Q] WOW : MIUI is this possible on Milestone?!

what you see in front of you , is not always "just a launcher", so beware, it can be a lot harder to make it work on milestone, as droid has no strange baseband problems(12+ different variantions + drivers changes), no bt,gps,gki system as backend to handle communication.
and finally, it might have less memory and can look nice, but reloads alot. which is not a problem on droid with swap and compcache options enabled.
someone please tell me what dialer this is using..
that looks like the perfect smartdialer for me
Doesn't look anything special anyway? :/

Wow that is a sweet ROM ... its kinda like what I imagined Android should be (iOS + widgets + Google stuff).
Its awesome because it basically borrows the strengths of both Andriod and iOS and makes it into a hybrid: very intuitive user experience that supports advanced features.
I really dig the whole layout: just one place where you scroll pages (not double like Galaxy S's TouchJizz).
I think its awesome how you:
+ have only one main area where you scroll (unlike Galaxy S)
+ you have a cool looking arrow (that indicates which screen you're at)
+ the arrow is positioned in a great location
+ the arrow allows you to quickly scroll between them (your fingers dont need exercise!)
+ can have unlimited "Home" screens
+ easily rearrange them (so you can move groups of Apps easily)
+ can manually choose the main home screen is also awesome
+ can easily delete Apps from the home screen (that rubbish bin at the top is so cool)
+ enter "edit" mode on the homescreen (displays the boxes)
+ add Widgets in this weird but wonderful way
+ easily rearrange Apps and folders
- too bad you can't place folders inside folders (which isn't a big deal and actually helps keep things simple, but I still prefer having the option)
- too bad you can't make shortcuts of Apps (making it impossible to launch Apps from several places/homescreens)
- too bad it doesn't support haptic response (...that would be so cool!)
- too bad it doesn't work in landscape mode (I have an idea how this can be implemented in a great way, I will make a mock-up if requested*)
I also dig the intuitiveness of:
+ the controls/shortcuts for wateva screen is always located on the bottom (familiarity/cleaness)
+ Apps automatically get a coloured backing like on TouchWiz, to make each App look more familiar (retains order) but with its curved sides it still retain some funk (reminds some of the iPhone, in a good way)
+ I like how the page bounces when it hits the end, while kinetic-scrolling
+ the transitioning (page quickly zooms in when opening/zooms and fades out when closing)
+ I like how the Widgets/startbar/notifications tab are transparent (requires a theme that can change these collectively)
+ like the space to put 0-6 Apps to launch from the App-dock and re-arrange them easily
+ like the large icons on the bottom of the Contacts page
+ like the large icons on the bottom of the Dialer
- the Music App has the same thing but its located on the top row (they forgot?)
- the App-dock doesn't let you put any folders into it, shame (but probably an easy fix)
- the dialer could've been improved by taking some cues from the the Galaxy S... if requested I will make you a mock-up**
- the settings page is just stock Android, they could've decorated it slightly like on the HTC Sense ROMs (probably an easy fix)
I loved how you can scroll the "functions" buttons in the notifications tray but overall I didn't like it as much as the Galaxy S's, its great but I see some areas of improvement:
- i think they should've have 4-larger "functions" displayed instead of 5 smaller ones
- i think somewhere in the Settings they should've made an option to Add/Remove some of those functions and arrange the order according to the user (like having a second App-dock but instead for system tools, a Tool-dock!)
- i think it needs the controls for music/movies (the media player) in the notifications tray like the Galaxy S (that's actually awesome)
Other things that would make a killer experience on an Android phone is if they also had
1) the "hibernate" function that intiates when you switch off your device (new HTC Sense),
2) a customizable theme that's consistent throughout Widgets/Folders/Pages,
3) and 3 main buttons (no need for trackball) to make the experience intuitive;
Left button***
= press is back (works the same way already in Android)
= hold (1.5sec) is Force-Close the app (which is so handy in Android that its not funny)
Middle button***
= press directs you directly to the "main" homescreen
= hold (1.5sec) opens you another page that "previews all currently running applications" (which is great for speedy multitasking)****
= See this just as an example for what happens when you hold the Home button http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4013/4355688804_68ccaca964.jpg
Right button***
= press initiates the Menu function
= hold (1.5sec) initiates the Search function (just like on the Galaxy S)
And arranging the buttons in this order allows easier use for users because it is intuitive (majority read left-right, buttons function in that same order ... WP7 actually got this right)
I think that is the best way to go about Android ROM's (with my slight improvements) as a Froyo build. So yeah, this is about 90% finished of what I envisioned/want from Android (for the DEXT/Milestone2/GalaxyS). If you want to visually see what I mean at the (*)'s, I can do so if you are wanting

Sorry for that, I guess that I decided to postpone my reply and then forgot. Sometimes I'm not in the social mood, my friends are used to it .
I hardly find the time to focus on the bugfixing and improving of the CM6 port. I will not start any other project anytime soon, otherwise I could loose my wife, daughter and job .
believe me that if you just take 15-30 each day you will make it...and i'll be happy to know that someone's working on that

Chingy.. Nice job
I flashed yours (I try most ROM's) to see if you fixed any of the problems I am having with my 3.0 ROM and you did get much further than I did. I did find one or two that I am still wrestling with.
In yours:
1) Can not add the password to voice mail in Settings > Call
2) Voice mail is the phone number instead of *86. Probably related to 1
3) No MMS when WiFi active - Works fine with WiFi off
4) Camera will not save to phone storage (EMMC) - FC'd 2 times out of 5 tries
5) Looks like 6 bar only using first 4 but I can't confirm that
In mine:
1, 2, and 3 I am still having trouble with. Have not touched the 6 bar or Rosie settings
And in closing:
Hope this helps now back to mine.
And above all I would love to borrow the Rosie Settings if you don't mind.

I'm with you on the 3.0 distortion issue. This is kinda why I only work on 2.1 and 2.1/3.0 Hybrids.
Nicely done ...pretty fast haven't noticed any lag. Free men was @ 95megs
One request if you can add in the setting to disable the 3.0 lockscreen

Ram will free up once things settle. It got up to about 140 free when I checked a little while ago
Haven't found anything other than camera will not save picture to phone storage.
Just logged into the hub ,widgets,ringtones scenes etc...all downloaded installed.
The weather lockscreen from wdfowtys inc2 is the only one that almost shows 100 degree temps.
I like this one a lot ....oh did I say its fast
Just did kill all and refreshed mem upto 164 free megs
Not a bug but when using different skins the notification dropdown is difficult to see because everything is transparent. The default skin has a white background so no problems there.
Could we have a 4x4 app drawer mod?

[ROM] [PROJECT] [PORT] [AOSP] LiquidMetal_2 (10/29)

[AOSP]LiquidMetal for the Incredible
First I need to thank Jermaine151 for allowing me (to attempt) to continue his work on the LiquidMetal For the Incredible port. Which goes to say I have to thank BigRushDog for his ROCK SOLID Metal build that the RC1 for the Incredible was based off of. I would like to also thank Sac23 and bmxerkid954 for allowing me to use their work and port their build to the Incredible, and were used for Jermaine151's previous versions of this rom. BIG thanks to Koush and the Cyanogen tam for their CM6 files and all they do. Thanks to Koush for his kernel and too many contributions to name. A thanks to gmichaelow for answering questions asked by Jermaine151. A special thanks to Incredibledoes for the original Liquid port. Thanks to jrummy for his ROM Toolbox (look into the donate version.) A thanks to 3MX10 for helping me out with all my stupid questions and helping me pick up where Jermaine151 left off. A special thanks to ALL the testers that have been involved with this project (before or now) for their time and trust that their phones wouldnt get bricked.
If i forgot anyone, it wasn't intentional. PM me and i will update this (this was based off Jermaine151's thread on XDA).
BigRushDog's thread- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=870944
Sac23 and bmxerkid954's thread- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=903470
Jermaine151's thread- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920804
This ROM is based on Android 2.2 (Froyo) and is built from the Android Open Source Project Code (AOSP) With the Acer Liquid Metal UI on top. (continuing where Jermaine151 left off)
*This rom was not intended for the INC, it is a port and has bugs; it is built off the Metal base. Close to it original source code, just modified for the your phone*
-Proximity Sensor doesn't turn the screen off immediately, but prevents buttons from being pressed when the phones against your face and eventually does turn the screen off. (Works perfectly on LiquidLight)
-Location and Security FC's (Crazy workaround: Rename Phone.apk to Phone.apk.bak, reboot, go intomenu and make changes, rename back and reboot - thanks iceman99393)
-No LEDs for notifications (I'll see what I can do. Any help is appreciated)
-LED flashes orange when charging and turns solid orange when fully charged
-No TV Out
-Changing the Dolby Mobile settings could throw you for a loop.
-CarHome doesn't play nice and will not be included.
-Light sensor (Rom includes Brightness widget)
PLEASE READ - Tips & Tricks:
-To Drag Icons to Other Screens Faster
Drag the icon to the numbers at the bottom of the app drawer
-To Dial *228 for Activation or PRL update (*228 FC's on some AOSP roms)
Dial *228+ (long press the numeral zero key to add the plus sign)
-To Hide the Whole Dock or Half of it
Drag ALL of your icons for the launcher into the app drawer and the notification bar will rest at the bottom of the screen.
Leave just 4 icons in the top row of the launcher and the dock will become half size.
-To Do Normal Reboot/Recovery Reboot
Use Quick Boot app.
-To Make the Weather More Accurate
Open your widgets app (either with the icon or by long pressing the home button, while the screen is unlocked).
Long press the weather widget and drag it to the trash can in the bottom left.
Hit the "+" button and add weather again. It will let you search for your specific city.
-If You don't Like all of the Vibration Feedback, You Can Turn it Off
For Buttons: Settings-->Sound-->Haptic feedback
For Stock Keyboard: Settings-->Language and Keyboard-->XT9 Text Input-->Preferences-->Vibrate on Keypress
-If You Don't Like the Transitions, You Can Turn Them Off
Settings-->Display-->Animation-->Some or None
-If You Don't Like the Launcher, Install Your Favorite Launcher (FIRST!!!!) and THEN Change it
Settings-->Applications-->User Interface. After rebooting it will ask your to choose you launcher (DO NOT CHOOSE LAUNCHER2) (Thanks cooljames2186 for finding this)
If you don't install another launcher before doing this, you may end up in a bootloop
-If You Select Custom Wallpapers and No Longer Want Them Displayed in the Wallpaper (Home Decor) app
Use Root Explorer (or your favorite file manager) and navigate to here: /data/data/com.acer.android.breeze.launcher/wallpapers/user/
Delete any of the numbered folders (i.e. 1, 2, etc)and they will immediately disappear from the wallpaper app.
What's Included:
MMS (Send/Receive)
720P Camcorder
8MP Camera
GPS works
Bluetooth works (Wiimote should work but I can't test that)
Working Wi-fi
Wireless Tether (I've tested with included kernel)
Koush's kernel from CM6.1 (Thanks Koush!)
Gingerbread Keyboard is the default
Google Talk
AdFree
Brightness Widget
T9 Dialing like SENSE!!!
MORE Acer Bloatware Removed
Zipaligned and Deodexed
VERY Fast System (Please allow it to settle down after first flashing)
New widgets
Verizon apps show up in the market
and much, much, more..
Instructions:
1. Download the Rom to your SD card.
2. Nandroid
3. Wipe data/factory reset, Wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache (i recomment formating /boot and /system in advanced menu)
3. Flash the rom zip via recovery.
4. Boot it fully (You shouldn't get a FC if you hit back arrow at region selection, but the FC doesn't hurt anything).
5. Go through set up or skip though it.
6. Set up your Gmail account, let it sync, get your updates from the market.
It may be sluggish after your first boot (Rom's take time to settle in). 7.Please give it 15 mins or more (depending on how much media you have on internal memory and your sdcard) because the media scanner is going through all of your media, adding it into it's database and creating thumbnails.
8. Enjoy!
**PLEASE do not ask for ETA's on updates (I will do what I can with the help i'm able to get)**
***Market 3.2 is included (ICS leak)***
****Netflix is confirmed working (if interested)****
*****I HIGHLY recommend Ziggy471's bfs/havs kernels (one will be attached)*****
******DISCLAIMER: By downloading you agree that I will not, nor will anyone else but you, take responsibility for the results of you flashing any of the files below.******

Ziggy471 BFS HAVS 041011 kernel (optional but not necessary)- http://www.ziggy471.com/downloads/ztest-INC-BFS-HAVS-041011.zip
LiquidMetal_v02 http://dev-host.org/egk9fjkc8quy/LiquidMetal_2.zip
Changes: Build.prop edits, edited some scripts to help with speed, updated market, "fixed" reboot on dolby settings (settings fc now) fixed gtalk, updated superuser and binary, added titanium backup (thank you), might be a couple more things, but i can't think of them right now.
Kick @ss Dude! I hope I didn't steal your second post.
EDIT: Cool. I gave the first thanks on this too!
honestly i forgot all about it. i've been up for like 20 hours straight. I went through, updated all the apps and tried to slim it down a little. I added the ziggy kernel, and it's so smooth (if it's possible to be more than it was.) thanks again.
I'll update OP with changes in the future.
Thanks again to all that helped me out, and were involved before I came along.

Rom boots and runs GREAT. Able to be used as a daily, i'm calling alpha because i plan to do a lot of work.
Interesting. I will have to try this out later. Hopefully it'll be a slow day at work lol
Please do, and let me know what you think.

Have you tested this with Chad's Froyo Incredikernel? If not, I'll flash that after I get around to flashing this ROM and report back.
EDIT: After I test the ROM with the kernel you use, of course.
No I haven't tried his incredikernel yet, but as long as its an aosp froyo compatible kernel it should work. I'll download now and try.

Edit:
Installed and running just as smooth, i'm not a benchmark guy anymore. If you want to compare with quadrant go right ahead.
Ok cool. I've been on my phone a decent amount today and am waiting on a couple calls, so if I can't get to it today I'll get it tonight. Looks really cool. I am running NilsP's 3.5. Gingersense at the moment which is really good. I would prefer an AOSP ROM but the stock look is too boring to me and MIUI is too iPhone like, although it has some really cool looking themes. This may be just what I'm looking for lol
Thanks for trying. All credit goes to those listed in OP. right now its just updated (apps) and slimmed down. But there are things in motion. Hopefully this takes off again.

Yep, no problem. And by stock look, I meant like what you would get on a Nexus or a standard AOSP ROM, not this. Hope I didn't cause any confusion.
Man this is awesome so far, I have tried a lot of different roms and this is by far the one I like the most. Thank you
@Bull, I figured that was what you meant.
@Dark, I was away from the Inc for a while. But this was my favorite ROM. I'm hoping to get it bug free. And i'm going to try my hardest to get a GB version, if we can get a system dump. I've got a couple emails out.

Just flashed it and I've let it settle in a bit. This is great so far. I'll play around with it later on tonight and report back any bugs or suggestions, but so far so good. android.process FC'd when it first booted up but, like you said, it didn't affect anything.

if you press back button when language selection screen pops up, English is default and you wont get the FC. but it doesn't affect anything.
So far the only issue I've seen is GPS doesn't work in navigation, unless it takes a while to lock on and I just want patient enough. Other than that it's rock solid.

I noticed that to, I think its a little sluggish for lock on. I use foursquare and wasn't pinpoint like usual

Have you tried it using the "Faster Fix" app on the market? That may help it.

I'll look into it. If it works good, i'll contact the Dev and try to include it in the next release if GPS isn't 100%
that was with light to moderate use, about 50 text (sent and received) and periodic facebook/ twitter checks/updates.

First impressions of LP
Last night I flashed US c5502 fw on my phone.
The first boot took longer than expected and phone got very hot. I could no hold it in hand.
So I kept it as it is without going through initial setup. Phone battery was 49%
Today morning when I checked the battery was at 49% ( surprised and shocked )
I did the setup and started discovering the LP.
The UI is butter smooth. actually its smoother than KK 4.4.4
All latest apps are there like home, keyboard, etc. US fw has lesser bloats than indian fw so I am thinking to use it for a while.
Disabled unwanted apps which can be disabled. I havent tried rooting yet. Wifi BT Data connection work flawlessly. there is no drop in 3G connectivity which I experienced a lot in 4.4.4
I hope sony will release the update for heating issue once they get all the feedbacks
Xposed works?!

mine was caused by unclean xposed framework left in system, camera is ok now
another impression: takes very long time to build or rebuild dalvik cache

yes, just make sure updating the busybox before flashing Xposed zip

This is because of the new feature present in every Lollipop ROM - Android Runtime (ART), a new method of building app cache. It takes a lot more space to compile, but the user apps are faster, and that's why you guys feel like the ROM is smooth and fast.
Every older version used Dalvik runtime - a slower version than the new one.
