[ROM] MinimalX

[in99flames]

I am definitely going to try this....but, I need to know something.

This thread mentions this memory tweak, will I still need to do this?http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-x2-hacks/154481-memory-performance-tweaks.html

Or will the rom incorporate this. Thanks!! Time to get flashing!!

I seem to be getting a rather large number of hide mouse cursor events back to back, if this normal?

Quick question...everything runs extremely fast and smooth, but whenever I hit the home button it takes a good 5 seconds for all my home buttons and clock widget to load. Almost exactly like when it boots up. Sort of random.

Also, a few times it's taken me to the home.screen by itself for no reason. So that was fun.

I added the SuperCharger stuff today and haven't noticed it going any slower. It's hard to tell cause it was so snappy without SuperCharger...

FWIW, I'm using the MegaMemory 1 preset with update7 of the script.

The random contacts issue is back for me. Will see if I can get a log.

This happens to me, rarely but it happens, on the stock rom rooted, I don't think it is an issue with your rom. Had to create an account to post this so I hope it helps. Oh yeah thanks for your hard work

Also I noticed it happens on stock rom after I press the top button to turn off screen then put it in my pocket, half the rime I end up calling someone, dint know how much of the stock rom you kept, hope this helps

"My backup root" backs up messages and call logs. "Super manager" backs up apks to your sd card, as well as a bunch of other things. Both free - as an alternative to titanium.

I have to say (being in the art industry) with all the blueish MOTOBLUR menus the greyed out parts dooont look as good, can you change it back? And then maybe have a greyed out theme to flash later on?
Other wise LOVE THE ROM!!!!! GOODBYE CRAPPY BATTERY DRAINING RESOURCE USING MOTOBLUR, thank you

Most definitely, because I agree with you 100%. Unfortunately, the images I inserted were converted to rather low res in comparison to what they actually are and is giving the ROM kind of a disgruntled look. The next update you can expect stock theme back (minus the launcher dock at the bottom -- that big white thing is fugly), but also multiple flushable themes.

And that brings about a question for the community. What color themes would you like to see? Or what kind of theme in general? If you have a certain theme you like, and would like to see it, provide reference pictures and I'll try to reproduce it.

Thanks all!

And one more thing (sorry for all the demands its a great rom!) You know the little minus buttons in the notification bar and browser windows? Could you pooooosibly make it the entire square? Cause sometimes il try and click the circle and end up clicking the notification or window instead/:

DX2

I know exactly what you mean, im a victim of this as well. I'll work on it, but cannot guarantee it will make next release.

Simple is definitely best when it comes to themes, think gingerbread simple like 3 colors no gradients just solid colors

And for the minus buttons of course I don't expect much but id love you if you could

Someone requested the stock wallpaper used in this ROM earlier... I'm sorry, I forget what user it was and the post got buried. But here is the wallpaper!

I hope you like it!

None of the Widgets are required for me day to day (almost anything can be put back if you look for something similar on the market)) ...... I will definitely be donating..... I also plan to do basically the same thing Droidmodderx does on YouTube with the walkthrus and reviews as soon as I get free time.... I will be including this in one of my first videos hopefully it will also generate some donations for you

That was my thoughts when creating the ROM. If it wasn't able to be achieved by side-loaded Android Market applications, then it was more likely to stay -- given it wasn't completely worthless to the ROM or users. Unfortunately, some things, such as BlurCalendarSync were removed on accident, but in future updates, they will be replaced. I'm also looking toward getting a few AOSP applications to replace ones on the phone now. Hopefully this will add to the user experience and increase performance.

Once that video is posted, please link it here, and also message it to me. I will be sure to update my original post with it! Also, if you would like to message me your YouTube channel, I will sub, view, and like your videos!

Again, thank you very much for the support and feedback!

flashed without wiping data or cache and its working great so far. I have noticed the search button isn't working but it works on a long press.
Also thank you so much for making this rom!!

Thank you for the feedback. I'm glad you had success without wiping. It has already been reported about the search button. It is due to the removal of GoogleQuickSearch from the system. It will be replaced with the next update. Thank you very much for your feedback.

Ok so after I recovered back to stock rom, I backed up all my contacts to google. I also testdrove a ton of calendar apps and the only one I found to work for me was Jorte. Wiped cache and flashed the rom and couldn't be happier now! Running my minimalist theme with launcher 7 and it is fast and beautiful!

Good to hear! So, I'm assuming your themes have flashed over flawlessly? If you would like, I would love to add a section of my original post dedicated to you and your themes. I will give full credit, of course. Appearance is a big thing in the consumer world, and I would like all users to be able to use a theme that is pleasing to them.

is the bootstrapper .apk included in the rom so we still have access to the recovery

Unfortunately, no. I'm not really sure what I was thinking not including this in the build. I was just excited to finally achieve a stable build and released it with a few things missing. Thanks for pointing this out. It will most definitely be added in an update.

Like to have have google search and google + bar merged all I want off of google search is the mic for voice search. I would also like to see recovery left in and wireless tether with infrastructure mode. Keep it up and I will donate more. Power controls in the notification drop down would be sweet too.

Thank you for the feedback. I will do all I can to fulfill these requests as they are very good ideas. They are more difficult tasks to achieve, but I will most definitely be working vigorously to accomplish them and get them into a future update. Also, thanks for the donation, it is greatly appreciated.

Just in case anyone was looking for the Froyo Google Talk app:

Google Talk Download

Apparently, it was also considered "bloat"?

Thanks for posting this.

Anyones else'sback key not work

Ew, this is no good. I had never experienced this, but will look into it for you.

Could other users please test their back button and post the results? Thank you!

Thank you for posting these free applications. I was unaware with them. When I get time to update the original post, I will be sure to include them with direct links to the market.



---------------------------------------------------

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I wish you all a good morning/afternoon/evening/night -- which ever it may be.

EDIT:

A little something extra before I go to bed.

For those wondering how the fishing trip went...

 

[greycobalt]

Glad you had fun. Do you know if my previously asked question would be because of the widget I'm using?

Hello all. I noticed when I do a reboot and then go into Battery & data manager, the time on battery is reset back to zero. I am running battery indicator pro which shows the correct time on battery. Is anyone else having the same problem? C21, nice ROM, it's noticeably faster than stock.

07-19 19:33:18.222 D/MouseCursor( 1416): hide mouse cursor

 

[Erock13]

I SBF'd and wiped everything before I loaded this up, but ive been runnin it all day, no real issues so far, just blazingly fast, love the grey theme too.. I also froze all the authenticator apps, stock home launcher, dialer, and contacts, and a couple other things, and changed the lcd density back to 240, just personal preference.. I use all third party apps for the launcher, dialer, and contacts, so its pointless to have those running, but everythings running incredibly smooth still.. Havent had an issue with the random contacts either, or any issues ive seen on here yet, besides the search and email, neither of which I ever use.. This is a great ROM, exactly what I was trying to do before I ended bootlooping my phone.. Great job..

 

[zakth]

In regards to the contacts/dial screen coming up often I ran a log cat and below is what I am getting during that time. Hope this helps.

This occurs whenever you touch your screen. I'll look at the rest of your log when time permits. Thanks.
