7-7-10 [ROM] Froyo Kangerade 5.0.9 *source built, 9 themes, bug fixes, many features*

Great work again...runs super smooth! One issue I have encountered w/ this ROM is that I can no longer access the diagnostics menu (the one accessed by dialing ##PROGRAM). When I dial ##PROGRAM instead of prompting me for the password my phone tries to dial out and connect to the literal "##PROGRAM" number. Of course the call is intercepted by a verizon automated error message. Has anybody else encountered this behavior?


This is a normal occurrence on most any source built ROM. Simply Stunning has the issue also. The hidden programming menu is a Moto proprietary file/app and is not part of any source built ROM. The only source built I've ever seen it work on it Koush's builds of his 2.1 ROMs.

The reason it worked originally was because the ROMs were built off the leaked SBF file which obviously has the menu, kinda the same reason why the feature works on Pete's BB builds. FYI there is a thread in Chevyno1's ROM section discussing it as he is trying to look into how to get it to be part of source built ROMs.

Is there a manual workaround that anybody knows about to re-enable this function of getting back into the hidden menu using ##PROGRAM or is there some other way like some file I can vi into to manually edit the baseband parameters?

Not that I am aware of. The app/file needs to be on the device itself to be able to make changes to the radio from the ##PROGRAM menu. So until it gets found and added back to custom source built ROMs I highly doubt there is anyways to edit anything in the radio settings.

As I mentioned the only source built I've seen it in is Koush's 2.1 builds. So the fastest way to find somethign out would be to get on his IRC channel and ask for some help so that Jrummy,Chevyno1....etc who build source ROMs could be able to get it back as part of there stuff. I'm no dev what so ever just have contacts at Moto who I get inside info/detail from at times when there are issues. And I pass the word along to assist everyone.
 
How can you change the dock screen saver clock color? The blue is a little too bright. Would like to change it to red to macth the red theme.:reddroid:
 
Restoring Games

I just flashed this ROM, my first since April. Anyway, can anyone tell me how I can restore the data from my games? For example, World War and Robo Defense. Both of these games are starting as if I just dl'd them, I did do a Titanium and My Backup pro restore of data, and no luck.
Thanks
 
I installed the Nextang theme and I didn't know if I just left the live wallpaper as default, it would be the orange neural network. How do I install the orange neural network?
 
In your next rom update, can you please enable the 15% and 5% battery indicators? Thanks

Yes I know the transparency is off on the 5% image, but I normally have a black notif. bar so I don't worry about it.

Use the Kangerade scripts app. You may need to install the "goodies" from the OP or Rom Manger if you haven't already.

I have that, but there is quite a few live wallpapers. Which one do I install?

Not sure.. I just assumed there was an orange one.

Maybe you should see if the extreme orange theme has the lwp...

I'm having the same problem, fresh installed, fresh wipe. Won't load any boot animation.

You guys can just rename /data/local/bootanimation.zip to bootanimation.old, then move the one from your SD Card to /data/local/ with your favorite file manager. I used Root Explorer, but I believe that Astro can do it too.

I know you're trying to let JRummy know that the script isn't working, but there are workarounds. Think outside the ROM. :)

-ph

Thanks for the help, wasn't really aware of how to do this previously. Now I know.

I tried the normal bootanimation.zip and it didn't work, then I extracted and tried the bootanimation.zip that was extracted to /bootanimation/system/media/ and put it where you said in /data/local/

Love this rom! Everything is working almost perfect. Except...I want rotten apple, dangit! Been working at it all day. I had it working on the last jrummy rom.

-I tried the above and my \data\local\ folder is an empty directory. According to Jrummy changelog thats where the bootanimation is supposed to be. Plus I am unable to move the file that is in \system\media\bootanimation. Please help.

My sister is coming in a couple days with her iphone and wanted her to see my cool rotten apple.
 
Most current is C_01.43.01P

I'm still on my stock baseband...what would be benefit of upgrading? And is it worth the risk? I'm reading other threads and a lot of people are fine and some people have some semi-serious problems?

Better battery life, and better signal strength. They made some tweaks to the radio in the update. And once Froyo gets pushed out by VZW/Moto most people will have the most current radio update anyways.

As for risk not sure what you mean. All it is is another update.zip to be installed so IMO there is no risk. You can always go back as all 3 different ( IE original, .01.41.01, and .1.43.01 current)radio updates are on the float to be downloaded

I was reading on another thread that some people were having troubles where the phone would go into a boot loop or randomly restart (typical things when you get a bad download). but as you can see from my sig, i went ahead and upgraded. thanks for the info! :icon_ banana:
