ARCHIVED: [DEAD ROM]The Scott Pilgrim ROM (CM7 Gingerbread, Zefie Edition)

[simon.ponder]

Ok, Please let us know. I'd like to try this ROM, but can't because of the display issue. I'm still on AOSP's Optimus V GB ROM from xda (with a few tweaks to make it work better for the Optimus S).

Thanks

I am running the March 10th Nightly on top of VD, works fine...

did i miss something didn't the "VC" update just come out, and now there's a "VD" update??? does it cure hurps yet? or is it a new one we all need to watch out for?

 

[pcubed]

ichihollow, it's cured the LG hang logo that many people were getting. Not sure what else it fixes. And it seems to be easily rootable/re-rootable as per the instructions here.

i still haven't gotten the VC update... just one of those, if it's not broken dont fix it people, problem is i'm also one of those people that if it is broken i'll fix it tomorrow...

Adding another confirmation that this works just fine on VD. Haven't noticed any differences from VC in fact.

I also haven't gotten the VC yet. Still on V9, but my SD card unmounting issue is driving me insane. Now that VD seems to have less ill effects than VC, I may go ahead and update.

quit using class 2 sd cards and you wont have those problems, i've yet to have a single issue with the unmount bug, it was discussed in TR's thread that the most likely cause, was the stock card being class 2. there was a more technical explanation but that sums it up, class 2 cards dont work well in our phone.

Yeah, I know about that problem. The thing is, I'm using an 8gb class 4 card that's been formatted several times per the instructions found on the forum. Each time I've formatted, the unmounting issue still reappears...

Actually, before I formatted the class 4 card, I'd get the notification that my SD card was unmounted. After I've formatted, I don't even get the notification anymore. I just notice that it's unable to launch the app, which I then have to fix by unmounting and remounting the card.

To everyone, sorry for getting off topic. If you know of a way to fix this problem, PM me instead.

Glad to see I'm not the only lazy one who decided to be lazy and stick to v9.. Oh, and latest build here works just as well as it ever has (which is pretty damn close to perfect for me).

Also, for those of you who were fond of the original cm7 boot animation, or just want to spice things up a bit, thought I'd throw something else into the mix (the more the merrier, right?) I came across this sick boot animation on xda, which was tweaked from another post in some other xda thread, then I went ahead and changed the size parameters of it to fit on the optimus' smaller screen, and voila (one green, one cyan):

Note: ALL credit goes to xda's Dysgenic for making the original, and to aph for tweaking it to make it run smoother. But with that said, here are both options, with the sizes altered for us:

Link to cyan version
Link to green version

Again, I'm not trying to say either of the other two boot animations are bad (because they're not - I really do love both!), this is just yet another option. All you need to do is rename whichever one you want to use as bootanimation.zip and replace the original with it in /system/media (you might want to backup the original one, but it won't brick if you mess up - it'll just give you a blank screen instead of the animation). You could probably do this in root explorer, I decided to push it over with adb. Either method works fine. Have fun!

Oh wow that is fresh!

The problem is not VC or VD. It's that the newer phones come with a different screen that is not backwards compatible with the video driver included before VC.

So, with the current build of this ROM, that contains the V9 video driver, my screen is blank.

Guys i just have two question:

1) Does you bluetooth works for you?

Im traying to make a call with mines (blueant q1) and it doesnt work.

2) How do you put the boot animation working? (the ones just above of android)

Thanks

Forgive me if this was addressed before - I didn't look that far back but usually keep a close eye on this page...

For those considering updating to VD (or any other update that comes), I'm pretty sure once you revert back to another ROM, such as this 1, the actual software and fixes/updates don't stick, just the baseband. My knowledge on the baseband is limited but I do know it relates to your radio/antenna (whatever you wanna call it). Updating the baseband on my previous android phone affected my signal and service drastically. Some updates hurt my service, others made it awesome. But I came from the Moment, so some of us know how much that hurt lol

Anyway, I did see some negative effects with the VC baseband, trying out the VD one now (haven't really spent enough time with it yet).

Anyway, unless someone can/will correct me you may not be missing much in updating if you're satisfied with your service already.

But like I said before, I might be missing something here. Just what I've experienced before.

Hey has anyone been seeing weird things happening with beautiful Widgets? The city is not showing up and when I unlock the phone thethe weather animation every time, I'm going to contact the dev as well

Actually, you may want to ask zefie which driver he was using. He had just came off building his VCRom when he started working on this. Hey may have been using a system dump from VCRom, or an updated version of ThundeROM, etc.

These are the steps i used to adb push the bootanimation to where it needed to be. Keep in mind deck's instructions tell you to rename bootanimation-cyan/green.zip to bootanimation.zip and leave it on the root directory to follow the below steps

C:\Android\platform-tools>adb shell
# mv /system/media/bootanimation.zip bootanimation.zip.2
mv /system/media/bootanimation.zip bootanimation.zip.2
mv: can't create 'bootanimation.zip.2': Read-only file system
# mount -o remount,rw -t yaffa2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffa2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system
# mv /system/media/bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip.2
mv /system/media/bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip.2
# mv /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
mv /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
# reboot
reboot

BTWs no bluetooth doesn't work yet, tried using my computer as mic and speakers, but the audio is garbage and i mean it sounds like an old tube tv when channels wouldn't come in and you hand lots of snow, some audio mostly static.

Joakyno, if you're uncomfortable with adb, you can just rename whichever zip you chose to "bootanimation.zip" and get it on your sd card probably via usb mode. Then just move it over to /system/media with root explorer or something similar (after mounting read/write of course...). That should do it.

once i get my vm working again i plan to release a new nightly with not only CM updates but VD LGE src files.

edit: also btw /data/local/bootanimation.zip overrides /system/media/bootanimation.zip

in other words just copy it to /data/local/bootanimation.zip and it will play yours instead of mine

edit2: btw it is gonna be a while even when i do get a new vm up. all i managed to salvage from my old one was my home directory, which is 90% of the awesome. but i will have to recompile the toolchains, redownload cyanogen.. bla bla bla. don't expect it this weekend or even monday. MAYBE by next weekend with any luck and progress lol
