ARCHIVED: [ROM] RodimusROM v1.2.3 + xionia [4/3/11] All themes update

[spawn50]

update to 1.1

So I flashed 1.0 and it installed. I flashed 1.1 and when I checked the build number it still shows RodimusROM v1.0. Is that normal or should it show v1.1

everything still going nicely. However I just noticed my voice search wasn't working and force closes whenever I want to use it. Anyone else have this issue? I wonder if I deleted something I shouldn't have deleted. Ah well. It's not something I use on a daily basis.

[overthinkingme]

Looking forward to this, too bad xda doesn't have a section, their loss!

 

[twiztidmf]

Another great rom. Keep up the good work.

Haven't had time to work on the ROM. I Annihilated my back so I've been bed ridden.

 

[LeslieAnn]

Get well soon Mmmark111, back injuries stink.

 

[overthinkingme]

[Franzferdinan51]

You get well soon and keep up the good work

In your next version you may want to change debug.sf.hw=0 to debug.sf.hw=1 in the build.prop, this enables the phone to use the GPU to accelerate the GUI.

Is this something that makes a noticeable difference? I've been testing in both modes and can't seem to come up with a scenario that shows any major difference. Just curious - and my testing is by no means thorough so far.

In regards to: "This enables the phone to use the GPU to accelerate the GUI."

I've seen this claim pop up on various message boards and it's simply not true. There is no 3D implementation in rendering the GUI in Froyo. This has been discussed ad nauseum in the following thread:

Issue 6914 - android - Make android use the GPU (if available) for UI and browsing. - Project Hosting on Google Code

I believe GPU implementation on the UI level has been confirmed for Honeycomb (3.0) and rumored for Ice Cream (2.4) though I don't have a source to back that up, so take it with a grain of salt.

As far as the effect of enabling debug.sf.hw, I have also not noticed a difference both qualitatively (my own experience) and quantitatively (benchmarks). I have seen claims that this improves scrolling performance, but once again have not noticed a difference.

I'd be interested to hear from anyone with more detailed knowledge regarding the function of debug.sf.hw.

Notification Bar?

My notification bar is always black/transparent, and the clock always has black text, making it impossible to read at a glance. How can I fix this?

Did you flash the transparent v1.1 or the stock? If the prior, just flash this.

As for debug.sf.hw, I think everyone is basing their knowledge on the results from making the change in this thread for as well as some others for the Dell Streak. Personally, I don't notice any change on this phone.

Thanks, for some reason I thought the launcher was the "transparent" part. Sure, I'm somewhat noobish, but maybe a slight clarification could keep that from happening again.

I'm aware it's my fault though, just to let you know.

And my final question is can I remove the Virgin Mobile splash/sound somehow? (Or could you do that in your next update?) The last ROM I used removed it, though it used the Xonia kernel I believe. I'm not sure if that's kernel based or if it's changed somewhere else.

And to let you know (you seemed unsure in a post), the launcher bar does work with non-live wallpapers.

The boot sound is removed. I'm not sure what you're talking about.

Overclocking
If you would like to overclock with this ROM, you'l need to use the Xionia kernel RevolutionRed modified.

Instrustions
-Download RevolutionRed's ROM here
-Dowload RodimusROM v1.0
-Replace the boot.img in the RodimusROM .zip with RevolutionRed's boot.img from his .zip
-Turn off signature verification in recovery and flash

Enjoy

Hmm, have you (or anyone else) tested this? I'm tempted to do this to just barely overclock a touch. I'm in love with your ROM, and one thing I've been missing is overclocking. Sure enough, you spit this out on the same day.

Also, I'm having issues with waking my phone up after it locks. The LEDs on the bottom will light, but the screen will stay off. This seems to be a randomly occurring thing.

mmark any update soon?

Re: OC Kills Wifi

Overclock instructions kills WiFi

Have you tried letting the system warm up for 5 minutes, not touching ANYTHING for 5 minutes after boot? I'm pretty sure that's required with that kernel.
