[DISCONTINUED] Lum's debloated, deblurred stock JB ROM with inverted GApps [V1.2.1] - Motorola Droid 4

Discontinued. Just use Mentor's ROM instead!
The aim of this ROM is to remove as much annoyance (e.g. blur and bloat) as possible from the stock ROM while making as few changes as possible. By default it is aimed at GSM users, my attempts at adding CDMA back in by a patch did not end well (no data) so I'm just concentrating on GSM now. The CDMA patch is here if anyone wants to have a go at fixing it.
Current Version: V1.2.1
Download links:
>>> MAIN ROM V1.2 <<<
>>> Patch to V1.2.1 <<<
Make sure you flash the patch immediately after the main ROM, before booting!​
Changes from stock are:
Removed about 200MB of useless apps
Removed all Verizon apps, including those needed for CDMA to work.
Added the following inverted GApps, replacing the blur equivalents where applicable:
- Email
- Messaging
- Google Talk
- YouTube
- Exchange
- GMail
- Camera
- Gallery
Disabled QE spyware (much faster boot)
Disabled MotoCast CDROM automount when connecting USB cable
Added international APNs
The following blur apps are still present:
Calendar
Contacts
Launcher
The blur versions of the calendar and contact apps aren't really that bad, and are proving problematic to replace. The launcher is easily replaced with any launcher from the Play Store. I left the stock one in place as it works well with webtop.
What's working?
Hopefully everything!
What's not working?
Setup Wizard crashes at the start, but frankly who cares, I will remove it completely in 1.3
CDMA
Sending MMS (doesn't work in stock for me either - use Handcent if you actually use MMS)
This is not a kexec ROM, it will only work if your stock ROM is the new JB OTA. If you are still on ICS or Gingerbread it will not work. Kfazz is working on a flashable update to convert stock-based ROMs into kexec, I will add that update when it is ready.
I have gone with inverted GApps because this phone has a pentile screen, black apps use less battery than white ones. I also personally prefer them.
This is very much something I'm working on for my own use which I have decided to share. I am sure that MyFishBear or Olegfusion will eventually come along with a much better done ROM at some point in the future, if they do then I'd encourage you to use it, but for now this works for me, maybe it will work for you too!
Help needed:
If I install the stock calendar app, instead of the Moto one, it refuses to sync and force closes if you choose select calendars to sync.
Someone in the USA to make a CDMA patch that actually works!
These are not bugs in the current ROM, they are enhancements I'd like to make but don't yet know how. The calendar does work fine in this ROM and it is intended primarily for GSM users.
Install instructions.
All users: Ensure that your stock rom is the JB OTA, then flash from within Safestrap in the usual way, immediately followed by the patch
Note that there is no superuser.apk in this ROM. You can install either SuperUser or SuperSU from the Play Store.
Disclaimer: If this ROM causes your phone to explode I am not responsible.
Changelog:
V1.0: Initial release.
V1.1: Disabled QE, disabled MotoCast CD, Fixed broken phone.apk.
V1.2: Added international APNs, Repackaged as a flashable .zip file.
V1.2.1: Patch to fix broken phone and contacts apps on a fresh install.
Thanks:
MyFishBear - This ROM is based on his deodexed stock ROM.
Olegfusion - For the info on how to remove QE and MotoCast
Hashcode - For Safestrap, of course

Much credit to MyFishBear for the deodexed stock ROM that forms the base of this ROM.
This is my effort to remove a lot of the crap from the stock ROM, the changes are:
Removed about 200MB of useless apps
Removed all Verizon apps, including those needed for CDMA to work
Replaced the following blur apps with inverted GApps:
- Email
- Messaging
- Google Talk
- YouTube
- Contacts
- Exchange
- GMail
- Camera
- Gallery
Disabled QE
Disabled MotoCast CDROM automount
I have not been able to replace the following blur apps:
Phone - However it works fine and looks deblurred due to having a stock Contacts.apk.
Calendar - Stock one crashes trying to sync with Google.
Launcher - Stock is still the best option if you use webtop, and it's really easy to switch to another launcher anyway.
This is not a kexec ROM, it will only work if your stock ROM is the new JB OTA. If you are still on ICS or Gingerbread it will not work.

Help needed:
If I install the stock calendar app, instead of the Moto one, it refuses to sync and force closes if you choose select calendars to sync.
CDMA users: If someone tells me which apks are required to make CDMA work, I'll bundle them into a separate file as I kept backups of all the stuff I removed.
These are not bugs in the current ROM, they are enhancements I'd like to make but don't yet know how. The calendar does work fine in this ROM and it is intended for GSM users only. Do not attempt to use this ROM if you are on Verizon!
Download link: http://d-h.st/s12
Install instructions.
This ROM is distributed as a safestrap/TWRP backup file rather than a flashable ZIP. To install, extract the ZIP into the TWRP directory on either your internal or external SD card, then from within safestrap create (or delete and re-create) a new ROM slot, then restore this backup into it.
Patches needed after install: I noticed after uploading that I'd screwed up and included the wrong Phone.apk, but do not want to re-upload the whole thing as it takes literally an hour to upload. I also figured out how to get rid of motocast and QE when the upload was nearly done.
Please download and unzip this file to the root of your external SD card and after restoring the back up, but still within Safestrap do the following:
Go to Mount and tick Mount System
Go to Advanced, File Manager and copy the following:
- Phone.apk into /system/app
- init_mapphone_cdma.rc into /system/etc/rootfs
- init_mapphone_umts.rc into /system/etc/rootfs
Exit the file manager
Go to Advanced -> Fix Permissions and run that.
Go to Wipe and wipe cache and dalvik
Sorry about that! I'll upload a new version either tonight or tomorrow.
If you are uncomfortable copying the files from within Safestrap you can also copy them from a terminal inside the ROM itself. Things will start crashing once you replace Phone.apk but a reboot, fix perms and wipe cache/dalvik will sort it.
Standard disclaimer: If this ROM causes your phone to explode I am not responsible.

I'm going to need input from others on that. I have literally no way to test on Verizon.
I'm going to see if I can dig out olegfusion's back to CDMA patch and study it tomorrow. It's hard for me to tell which of the huge amounts of VZW crap I deleted are actually needed for the phone to work.

Were u able to replaced the blur stock launcher?
Sent from my DROID4 using xda app-developers app

It's still using the stock launcher, but it's easy enough to install Nova or Apex and set it as default. Just install your preferred launcher from the marketplace.
The reason for keeping the stock launcher is because people who use webtop are best off sticking with the stock one as it's the only one to properly handle the resolution chances.

just to offer some insight, Go Launcher EX works fine in webtop. I use that as my daily launcher and it switches over perfectly.

I'll have a play with it, but I figure that putting in any given launcher, somebody is always going to want a different one so figured I may as well leave it stock since they're so easy for the user to replace anyway.

I'm currently uploading V1.2, now as a flashable ZIP, so those of you who haven't downloaded V1.0 may want to hold off. It'll take me an hour to upload this.
Also testing a flashable ZIP version of the CDMA patch. Will update the OP soon.

no worries, was just sharing that webtop worked with Go Launcher. It is to each their own on launchers, as you said, everyone has their own favorite. great work on the ROM. I am definitely going to download once I upgrade and CDMA is all set

[ROM] GothicKangedFroyo Based somewhat on JK2 *11/10/10*

Here it is again. The one and only GothicKangedFroyo ROM! I have implemented a couple changes from the first version of the ROM. The basics are the same, but the framework is different. The framework mods that I did are only the start of them, the more I learn about how to edit the framework the more changes I will do. I warn you I am teaching myself how to modify the framework, but don't worry the only things I will post here are going to be ones that I know will boot up when flashed and won't soft-brick your device.
Features
Based on Eugene's MacNut_R10
Supports bootanimation.zip
Working WiFi Calling - Sometimes it hanges when starting so may or may not be fully working
Working GPS
Touchwiz removed expect for Dailer and Contacts
Multitouch Keyboard
HTC_IME Keyboard (themed)
ADW Launcher
Launcher Pro
Launcher2
Custom Framework (semi-complete if anyone would like to help drop me a line)
Fluxed ADW Theme
MIUI Browser
Fancy Widget
Titanium Backup

How to Flash my ROM coming from Voodoo
Actually this is fairly simple, but I will explain it. Create a blank file using a text editor and titled it disable-lagfix, remember you have to have it completely blank nothing in there for this to work.
After you have finished that delete the extension from the file and place it on your internal SD Card in the folder entitled Voodoo.
Reboot Your phone, and you should hear the little voice on boot that explains that voodoo is being disabled.
After Voodoo is disabled flash away.
This ROM does not include the Overclocked Kernel, but you can easily flash it over from Eugene's thread. The purpose of this ROM was to kang different things that I liked from other ROMs so don't hate the fact that somethings are the same as other Froyo ROMs out there.
I will give credit where credit is due though, Eugene for providing an amazing base for Froyo ROM development, Cyanogen just goes without saying, GamerCore for the idea of including the MIUI Browser, and Vazguard for the Fluxed Theme. Anyone that I may of missed I am sorry, but thank you none the less.
Many many props goes out to my beta team,
Vachea, _MichaelAngeles, Ray Walters, and OgreRocks
GothicKangedFroyo_RC2
Mirror for RC2
DISCLAIMER: I ASSUME NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR BRICKING OF YOUR DEVICE WHEN FLASHING MY ROM! IF YOU HAPPEN TO BRICK YOUR DEVICE WHILE FLASHING MY ROM BECAUSE YOU MAY OF FORGOTTEN TO DISABLE VOODOO LAGFIX DO A SEARCH OF THE FORUMS AND THEN YOU WILL FIND YOUR ANSWER. IF BY CHANCE YOUR NAME IS MICHAEL ANGELES AND THAT IS YOUR THING TO COMPLETELY BRICK VIBRANTS ALL THE TIME, THEN I CAN DO NOTHING FOR YOU EXCEPT SIT BACK AND LAUGH. I MAKE NO IMPLIED OR EXPRESSED WARRANTY ON YOUR DEVICE BASED ON IF YOU FLASH MY ROM. I AM NOT GOD I CANNOT BRING THE DEAD BACK TO LIFE, BUT I MAYBE ABLE TO HELP WITH A DEAD VIBRATOR.
Changelog below
Nice nice, I'll experimentally flash in a bit.

Gothdroid got a few questions for you:
1. in both of eugenes roms and simbionix's roms i see a couple common problems people are having: gps, data, internal or sd card problems; since this is based of eugenes, are you having the same problems? anyother problems?
2. does this wipe internal sd if coming from 2.1?
3. do we flash from clockwork recovery (not odin correct)?
4. anything else we need to know about flashing this or setting it up?

If you have problems, open astro. Go 2 pref. is an option 2 check that says allow all downloads in browser, check that. You will then be able to download from 4shared. This looks awesome dl'ng now........ Thnc

In my beta tests of the Rom, I hadn't noticed those types of issues, has been running smoothly for me so far...
I hadn't seen any issues with data loss coming from 2.1, but that seems to happen randomly, so backup just to be safe.
And yes It's a clockwork flash.
I generally, with roms on the vibby, let it sit for about ten min after first boot without touching anything, then reboot before using.
Has run great for me so far.

This is weird, while tethered my data keeps going in and out. Literally a X through the signal bars. I haven't used it enough untethered to noticed whether it is doing it there too or not.
I installed this rom and went great but for some reason everytime I try to go into recovery I lock down my phone. It reboots and hangs as moto m causing me to sbf I dunno wat the problem is. Anyone know please let me know. This has happened three times. Every time I try to go in recovery it locks down. And I love this rom regardless of wat I do I'm going to have to sbf back before I can go in recovery.

So do I have to install this like I would a brand new ROM?
Great ROM here!
Highly recommended. Been using for a month or so now and would never go back to blur....
With the 1.9.0 update, battery life is very pleasing...
drod, do you think this fix is applicable beyond rubiX? Just curious if it's something Fission could use too. I used to have spectacular battery life (almost 50 hours once with moderate use) on stock Blur, but even with the extended battery and various versions of Fission (with SBFs and battery stat resets) I've never been able to make it more than 30 hours. And 30 hours was with almost no use!
I'm just still a little confused...do I have to install this like I would a brand new rom or can I just update from bootstrap recovery?

I was blown away by the 30 hour and 50 hour comment till I read you're using an extended battery.
My tweaks were included in fission before, but we agreed that they were better left out.
So no, my tweaks are exclusive to my rom, and I intend for them to stay that way, unless approached by another dev looking for some help.
Does the hdmi work? Will it ever? And is there any roms for the dx with a working hdmi?

does it have multitouch problem?
i found it at fr4, how about your rom?
Installed this ROM - everything works ok, except mobile data. Wifi, etc - all ok, just Edge/3G doesn't work. Any ideas what is wrong?
Nevermind - found it on Modaco. For anyone with same problem - you have to set up mobile access points manually in this version.
-thx
Will this rom work on the lg optimus 2x su660?
great forge of Paul's great MoDacCo! until cyanogen mod the best way to wait
Yes, I will update this until CyanogenMod hit our phones

Qazzi76 - Touchwiz 4.0.4 Tablet Mode n7000 v0.2

This ROM wouldn't be possible without:
- First and foremost DAGr8's Hybrid ROM
- Dakix's Zeta Rom for GTAB 7.7
- tonyking123 Classic_ROM_v1 and associated Mods
IMPORTANT - As requested - I have attached the systemui.apk file that is at the core of this to this post - you can extract it from zip and place it in system/app on your Android 4.0.4 touchwiz ROM using android commander or via adb push. Ensure you change the SystemUI.apk file permissions to 644 (rw r r) BEFORE REBOOTING.
(Doubt it will work correctly on anything else 4.0.3 etc but you can try)
Also Be sure to change dpi to 213 to enable tablet mode after copying systemui to system/appp to enable tablet mode.
This file must NOT BE FLASHED.
ROM flashing info removed - when I get moment I will build a ROM around this and post it here. Please don't hold your breath as I have a lot of life commitments so I can't provide an ETA... Sorry.
Good Stuff
--------------
- uses AOSP version of Email, Calendar, Browser, Messaging (SMS), Play Music
- Features SMemo that works well at 213DPI
- Full hw video acceleration as it's touchwiz
- No strange GPS Anomalies
ROM Anomalies
-----------------------
- Displays 4G instead of 3G HSPA
- Battery seems to drain a little fast
- USB Switcher doesn't work and results in FC when trying to mount internal and ext SD card
- Other anomalies possible due to hybrid nature please report back and I will look into them.
Notes
----------
- AOSP Email and Exchange Email now working
Please note I am still working on this rom and hope to add the following in the future:
- AOSP dialer and contacts
- AOSP Exchange email
Reserved
This is reserved

This is also reserved
Well done... Downloading and will install in the morning.... Will give feedback then

To install this ROM:
- Install http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1765307&page=19 and the 15 toggles mod (Follow instructions for install process carefully. i.e. flash abyss redpill, wipe in redpill and flash Classic Rom v1, let rom boot then reboot into cwm and flash mods and reboot)
- Download (http://www.multiupload.co.uk/GO9QKHWSQZ) extract and copy the "ClockworkMod" folder to your SD Card
- Now launch cwm app and choose "restore" and select "Touchwiz-Tablet-Mode-Qazzi76-V0.1"

Instead of flashing the whole rom and then restore this rom, can't we just flash a safe kernel and then restore your rom?
This part i do not get,

If you restore a rom it sites not matter from what rom you do it.
Flash a ROM and follow by restore from CWM backup? Hmm... Do you have the steps on how you enable tablet mode in the beginning?

You based this Rom on dagr8 work on att note? So it is possible to customize per app dpi?

It does matter which kernel, perhaps extracting kernel with which the backup was made then if save wipe procedures would be enought to restore with cwm?

Is there something special with Classic ROM that facilitate tablet mode ? Could we have instead just the components (systemUI I guess at least) that would work with any 4.0.4 stock ROM ? Also, I'm fine with AOSP apps, but does S-apps work too, especially stock camera & FM radio ?

Cant we just restore the rom from abyss kernel and install the kernel for the rom to run, instead of downloading two roms.

Hi Guys,
I'm sorry the installation sounds so complicated...
With my installation instructions I was careful to ensure the end result would be exactly what I have on my Note as this is not a fully cooked ROM it is just a cwm restore.
I am also aware that people may be running different kernels and different versions of CWM. In light of the emmc/hard brick issues I just wanted to ensure the safest transition from whatever you're running to what I'm running.
I also added some AOSP features (Unfortunately the AOSP exchange email doesn't work....) currently working on this.
I will extract the System UI component only which comes from directly from DAGr8's Hybrid ROM and post it here if it helps.
Please note that the TW Dialer, TW Contacts and Mount Mass Storage dialog FCs with just the System UI component.
@qazzi76 : first of all, thanks for sharing your work.
I don't know if it's safe to restore from Classic ROM, that's why I think people (including) are a bit reluctant in following the procedure...but I guess eventually there will be a more "standard" way of installing your ROM. The benefit of installing only the components you used to make it work is that everybody could use their preferred base ROM... Or maybe your plan is to build your own ROM and keeping it up to date.
Could you tell me if you tried FM Radio and stock S-Camera, and if it works ?
Funny thing is I think I tried to replace SystemUI with the Hybrid from i717, but I still couldn't get notification bar...so I guess I messed up somewhere.
Again, thanks for sharing your work, it's been a long time I've been waiting for this, unfortunately I go on vacation tomorrow so I won't be able to use it before a few weeks.

At a later stage - yes.
There are other issues that I need to work on first.

Hi KSauzeRK,
Yes I have now included the systemUI.apk on my first post.
Also Yes, S-Memo is modded (Not by me - can't find that developer to credit him/her) and works perfectly at 213 dpi.
Yes S-apps, stock camera and FM radio function perfectly.
Ok I've managed to resolve the AOSP exchange email issue - All working now.
I will add the relevant files to the first post when I get a moment.

[ROM] ChickenStock

THIS ROM IS A WORK IN PROGRESS. JUST ENLISTING TESTERS AT THE MOMENT.
I wanted to get a solid CWM flashable base ROM together. We shouldn't be entirely dependent on the Ouya updates and Ouya stock recovery.
As the name implies, the goal of this ROM is to provide a solid base that others may build/cook on top of. This ROM isn't supposed to have all the bells and whistles of a Cyanogenmod.
I simply used the stock Ouya ROM from the latest OTA (264) and changed a few things.
Changes:
-added superuser
-added busbox
-added terminal emulator
-changed install_recovery.sh to prevent stock recovery overwrite on boot
-removed recovery-from-boot.p
-changed ro.update_url in build.prop to attempt to disable OTA updates
Bugs so far:
-OTA updates have not been all the way disabled
-superuser and busybox need to be re-implemented properly into the updater-script
Instructions:
-You need CWM Recovery installed to flash this
-Do a backup in CWM before flashing (seriously, you'll have something to go back to if things go awry)
-Wipe cache
-Wipe dalvik cache
-Data wipe is optional (this is alpha, doing the wipe causes an annoying update loop)
Again, this ROM is in testing. It should be considered alpha state. Don't flash it if you are afraid to break something. I'm looking to make it better/more stable through testing.

Good job dude i give try and report
And the time has come! Thank you sir
So I just did an install wiping data, cache, and dalvik. There are definitely bugs to be worked out. The Ouya launcher constantly tries to get an update (verified in data usage in settings). Reboots take me to CWM recovery (where I choose not to run the update). When I boot back into Android the same thing happens. Anyone have an idea about how to disable updates but keep the Ouya launcher? I tried editing the build.prop (see OP), but that didn't seem to work.
They are using a modified version of CMupdater from cyanogenmod source, but I haven't figured out how to disable it yet...
I might need to decompile the Ouyalauncher apk and see if I can find something to disable the updates.

Actually went outside this weekend
Hey reporting had thee most disturbing pleasure of watching After Earth this weekend god help you if you get so unlucky to watch that
But on to better things I installed the rom all was well then started to get random reboots and freeze ups lucky had done a back up but other then that slim quick
Updating to properly install busybox and Superuser.apk.
I'm having some trouble hunting down how to disable the Ouya automatic updates. I deodexed and decompiled the OuyaLauncher.apk and found some references to auto updates, however, I'm unsure what to mess with to prevent updates from occurring.
-Can we prevent the AutoUpdateActivity or AutoUpdateService from being run by the launcher (or replace their behavior with something trivial that does nothing)?
-If we snooped on the ouya's ethernet connection (with tcpdump or wireshark), I wonder if we could see the dns query for the update site. If so, we might be able to simply block by modifying /system/etc/hosts. This wouldn't work if the domain of the updates was the same as the domain of the Ouya store. While an update was downloading, I used netstat to see current connections. I saw two established connections. Did a reverse DNS lookup on the IP addresses and found out they correspond to amazonaws.com. Added "127.0.0.1 amazonaws.com" to the /system/etc/hosts file. The update still started downloading the next time I rebooted. I tried manually going to amazonaws.com in the browser and couldn't connect (as expected). Oh well, it was worth a try.
-Any app developers / smali wizards out there who want to help?
I've included the decompiled OUYALauncher for reference.

The only question is: What is on that ROM new? It just has the Root-Tools which you know from phone flashing. I don't see any reason for that work.

The idea is it's supposed to be a base for other roms to use. Others only have to concentrate on their additional apps and tweaks, not annoying things like preventing updates from annoying the user.
I don't think the OUYA store will work on anything other than a ROM based on stock, so a custom ROM with tweaks and the OUYA store will need to figure this out. I'm personally hoping we get CM 10.1 running, but I also see the value of stock based Roms for the OUYA focused apps from the store.

And I've had phenomenally bad experiences trying to get apps NOT ported to the Ouya working. Real Racer 3 looks gorgeous... But you can't navigate the menus without a touch screen, for example. There's no controller support. If I could figure out which controller button corresponded to a mouse click...

Since android 4.0.4 , gamez apps should have gamepad support. GTA 3 runs really smooth at OUYA.. I am the only one who got a heavy input lag from controller?

I'll try to track down a copy of 1.3 if I cannot convince 1.4 to function.
