Generally Android Central is pretty respectful. I think a few people on both sides just got worked up and you saw the result. I am not condoning anyones behaviour, and I dont know who's right, but from what I have see it was an anomaly.

I know most of us try to be helpful and respectful... Just some people get carried away. I want to give this rom a try since i o/c cm7 to 748 anyway....

I'll be the first to admit I can get a little carried away sometimes, and I do apologize for that. But you cannot deny that I did ask a very important and relevant question about the launcher included in this ROM. Never mind, I'm done worrying about it. Whatever happens happens. Regardless, I'm glad that other folks are getting into ROM building.

+1 ;)
 
Thank you all for your support. Like I said earlier people can get a little worked up when someone new pops on the scene. Its all good. No worries.

I do have a valid question now (hopefully you'll read this because I would really like to know). How come Wifi tethering works in AP mode on Shell ROM and not on Clean ROM?

Can you make it work in AP mode in Clean ROM?

I would have to look at that. What tethering app are you using on either ROM, what version and any other info you think would be pertinent in determining this?

I'm using the latest version of the Hotspot Widget by Harold Muller. It works just fine in Shell ROM, but in Clean ROM it comes up with a message "Network not found" or something like that.

Well, I did some preliminary troubleshooting. I reverted to Stock VD (With root) and cleared storage. I then reinstalled Superuser and Hostspot widget and I get the exact same results you noted with my ROM. SO one would have to extrapolate that the widget does not work with the Stock VD rom and therefore does not work with my variation of. I guess at this point you would need to ask Nick7 what he did or what he varied from stock that allows this app to function. I am sure it could be googled as well. But right now I'm learning how to move dalvik-cache. Once I master that I will look deeper into the issue you have identified. Im sure it wont be too hard of a fix. Thanks for bringing it to my attention as I am sure others will want to know the same.
 
Any update on getting hotspots to work? I think this is why its not being used BC hella peeps want hotspots. Just wondering what happened since then....

Wireless tether works just fine. Just that one widget that drewwalton was talking about doesnt work.

With that being said... No, I havent looked into why that one widget does not work. I have been following all the Evo 3D root attempts, etc.... lost in IRC... I need to take a break from the 3D for a while... lol

This is exactly why I was looking to root my phone--No bloat, overclocking, and WiFi tether. No ads is a bonus. A no frills ROM, love it! +Thanks

My favorite ROM by far other than ThundeROM which is dead. I flashed the Nexus S theme over and I love it. The overclock also is an added bonus. Im not changing until MIUI gets ported.

I have made some updates to the ROM. New version is 2.0.

* New features in this version
* Dalvik Cache moved to cache. This increases the internal storage for apps to 161 Megabytes!
* Added circle battery mod to display battery percentage in the notification bar
* Updated the Market application to 3.0.27
* Updated Google Maps to 5.7.0
* Added the Gingergread Launcher from Android 2.3. It has been themed to maintain the Froyo theme of the ROM
* The ROM now wipes all data before installing. No need to wipe data before flashing the ROM.
* Latest host file for ad blocking

I listed the sources for all added applications in the op. If you have any questions please feel free to post them.

Honest question: why is CleanROM 2.0 using a Froyo-themed Gingerbread launcher? If it doesn't change the look or anything else, I guess I just don't see the point of doing the theming work if you get what I'm saying.

Thats a really good question. Thanks for taking the time to ask. I did it because I really like the GB launcher but I did not like the colors. I like the shortcut menu to "Manage Apps". Yeah, I know, not a big deal to most but I find it invaluable. I changed the color from stock green-ish look back to the Froyo look. The green just clashes with everything. (Side note: I was thinking about doing a complete GB themed ROM, actually I had it all done except I had one issue... ).

As far as actually doing the work... I grabbed the pngs from the Virgin mobile Froyo launcher, it ships with stock Froyo launcher. I grabbed the pngs and just replaced the 6 I wanted (the three buttons and the three backgrounds for the buttons). All said, the process took about 4 to 5 minutes. It was time well spent to get rid of the green ;)

Oh and one more thing... I figured out the Hotspot Widget! Remember? Its the one you were asking about not working on my ROM. I hope to have an update come again shortly, or maybe try my hand with a flashable zip. But I got it working on my beta 2.1ROM:-X Thanks for asking about that. Just figuring out why that didint work sent me on many a google search. I learned more about roms and frameworks than I thought was possible to know! lol Im an old school Windows Mobile developer. I am still learning alot about Android.


BTW: Do you prefer the GB launcher or the Froyo launcher?
