[ROM] [ROM] Droid Concepts Froyo Releases [BETA versions]
- Thread starter woodyman
- Start date
A settings app is already in progress, read the end of post #1 and it will give you a pretty good explanation...
thanks for testing man..
I just updated to beta 4 from SD7 without wiping and have had zero issues other than having to clear data on Gmail before it would load.
I'm running ChevyNo1's latest LV 1.0 GHz kernel and am running smooth as butter. The stock kernel felt a little non-responsive at times. Usually it seemed to ignore my tapping on the soft back button. It may just be that I've been running Chevy's 1ghz for so long and I'm used to the immediate feedback.
My only opinions so far...
I don't like comic sans. I tried to go back to stock -- the only font update I had on my SD but it wouldn't install. I'll have to replace it soon.
I miss the HTC Sense themed settings replacement I installed. I love your default theming for the statusbar and notification but the stock settings menu needs color for me.
Weatherbug and other Google maps using apps no longer fc on me. That was my only issue with SD7, so I'm loving this!
Thanks Woodyman!

have you made any calls yet?
Sure, why do you ask (I haven't read the entire thread)? I was making calls inbetween flashing different kernels and trying to replace the system font.
Oh crap, all the calls were from the call log or answered, so I just saw the in-call screen with the hidden keypad and then rearranged controls. Lol, wtf? Freaked me out for a sec there.
Also, this is a suggestion for the new SD/DCM rom. How about replacing the /system/bin/bootanimation binary with the one from the D2R2D2? The binary and instructions (as if you need it, but for other readers) are available, here.
Replacing the binary enables sound and makes playback of boot animations far more accurate. With the stock binary, small animations like the D1's default animation play quite well, but in comparison you'll find the framerate slows greatly on larger animations. This binary allows the D1 to play even 24 fps boot animations accurately, where the DX starts to lag (I've tested quite a bit and had feedback.) Even if you don't use animations with sound, this is a worthy modification.
I should mention this only works on Froyo roms and will require an update to work on Gingerbread. That's another bonus, probably my main interest, with sticking to Froyo.

Rom is working great no problems so far, and everything is working like its supposed to. I would like to get battery % in status bar. Is this coming in with the app you are talking about at the end of post #1? Using a widget uses up valuable real estate.
