Fission 2.2.1 is done and more info will be posted on our website in a bit.

Props & Thanks:
Thank you to all the awesome team members that are now with us. Thanks to our newest members kejar and braway. They have helped us bring Fission from a great ROM to an OUTSTANDING ROM with their work ethic and knowledge.

Thanks to everyone who has donated. You are helping us in obtaining new devices that will allow us to port Fission to the Pro and Global. Thank you so much and if you would like to help our cause you can find the donation info at the bottom of the post.

About Us & ROM:
The first generic Android platform for current and future Droid devices. We are a bunch of mad hackers, modders and developers that were not happy with the current model of Droids being "Blurred" so we began a mission to rid our devices from the blurriness of VZW Android systems. It started with a crazy idea of messing with the Droid2 SDK that has turned into a full fledge AOSP generic type of ROM. We have incorporated many features that were only seen in AOSP ROMs before this. Some of the features include Reboot in Power Menu, custom built Framework, vanilla Android GUI, totally blur free app folder and many more AOSP like features to come in the short term future.​

Features:
True Vanilla ROM with generic Android feel, not themed to look line one. No blur apps...
Reboot in Power Menu.
Custom Framework - 10% battery increments with display percent number & without.
Overclock ready out of box.
Lots of free memory.
ROM has root and has been deodexed, and zip alligned.
Busybox installed and symlinks have been applied.
Clean base for you to customize how you like.
And many more...​

HotFix:
Please see download links for new patches.​

If you are coming from a different ROM, besides OEM ROM then I HIGHLY suggest you take the time out to SBF. If you have not SBFed in awhile then I would suggest doing so and ROM download links will be posted around the time you are done. You can find all the SBF files right here on this site.

FAQ:
Q. Can I install ROM without performing wipe cache/data?
A. You can but you may have bugs. If you do not follow install instructions then do not post a bug that you may have.

Q. Can I install any theme that is not made for Fission 2.1?
A. You can but you may have bugs. If you do not follow install instructions then do not post a bug that you may have.

Q. I am having reboots, why?
A. Make sure you have installed ROM by following every step of instructions. Back up memory card, format memory card and then copy over only your files back to memory card, do not copy over Android made folders/files. Do not overclock. Uninstall any overclock app you have installed.

Q. I want the battery percentage numbers to be displayed?
A. Reboot into recovery and apply the framework file in /sdcard/fission/add_on folder.

Q. I installed ROM but it is showing VZW build info in About screen?
A. The build.prop, which contains that info has been left as default values. You can change what you want very easily by searching build.prop tweaks. Some things may break so be careful with what you are doing.

sounds like you might have missed an installation step.
clear cache should fix that.

or try this. open bootstrap program and click the Bootstrap Recovery button.

or try this. delete this file /data/.recovery_mode

I'm 100% sure that I followed the instructions to a T. Wiping the cache didn't fix it, but it's not a huge problem. This ROM is amazing none the less

Sent from my DROIDX using DroidForums App
 
Did you try uninstalling bootstrapper, reboot, and then reinstalling the app?
 
ok so what is the difference between this version of 2.1 from the 2.1 that was posted yesterday?
 
larger text

I really love this rom and thank you for your great work. There is an option for larger text in the gmail settings, is there any way to have that for all other email accounts. I use handcent for mms so I can enlarge the text there. I really have a hard time seeing the text in my email accounts.

I am not 100% sure since I am flashing the rom right now I can't check but I think you can increase overall font size in Spare Parts app
