[ROM] [ROM Release] AngelRom v0.6.2 5/12/11

[clouse2013]

I'm going to give this update a shot when I get off work. I'm looking forward to the speed increase and to finally have the use of my bluetooth back. For the millionth time in this thread, I can just flash this right over top of the previous version?

edit: Also when I flashed the original version I could not receive my Gmail emails on my phone. I had to use the browser and go to the site. Anyone else have that issue with the last version or is it fixed now?

Gmail isn't included. You can download it from the market. Flash this over top of the previous angel and you don't need to wipe data, just cache.

Thanks for the info. I just flashed this with no problem. Stupid question though, what facebook app was used in the original rom? I really liked the look of it but I can't find it anywhere.

I have a rooted D2G, though all I really have done is wireless tethering and root uninstaller. I've never fooled with any roms, but from what I have read I'm interested in installing angel. Due to my inexperience I'm a little scared though. I just want to be sure I fully understand what I am doing before I attempt it. After I install angel_signed.zip and rebooted how do I restore everything? Do I need to restore from Titanium Backup, or the nandroid?

 

[L0ckett]

I know how ya feel. I was nervous my first time too. All you need to do is make a nandroid backup, mount system (not really necessary but I got into the habit of doing so), wipe data AND cache, and install zip. Installing the rom wont erase anything so all your contacts, pics, and anything else on your phone will still be there.

I made a nandriod backup, factory reset, and wiped cache. Then I tried to run the update.zip but it keeps aborting.

What update zip? Just install the entire angelrom from sd
Or maybe it was a bad download, try dl again and retry

Pm me if u want or still need help

You have to scroll down to "Install zip from sdcard" not "update.zip". Then you'll scroll down to" Angel075.zip"

I was running HeXen for a little while and although it seems a little more stable, I for some reason get WAY better battery life on this rom and it also seems a lot quicker. Idk maybe it's just me...

Maybe its your kernel. Which one are you using?

Wycontacts?

First, thanks for this ROM, so far everything is going very smoothly and fast.

[I read somewhere that Wycontacts lets you view exact time calls were made, not relative (x minutes ago) Is that an option? How do I switch to Wycontacts?] - > NEVERMIND - I see it now. Great!

Also are there any major differences/advantages of using one launcher over another?


Btw. Thanks for extra 250 MB on dropbox

powerstatus bar notification tray

One of my favorite features on my Droid1 with Cyanogenmod was the dropdown powerstatus bar in the notification tray. Is this available on Angel?

 

[hellajdm]

Use Widgetsoid or Extended Power Control. I was looking for a this for awhile until Clouse got back to me last night.

Widgetsoid notification bar toggles Not working for me

Use Widgetsoid or Extended Power Control. I was looking for a this for awhile until Clouse got back to me last night.

Thanks hellajdm for the feedback. Your screen shows 4G LTE. Are you not using the D2G?

I don't see Extended Power Control in the Market. Do you have an APK Update: (I think you are talking about SwithPro right? That does not give you the ability to add powercontrol to the notification bar, which is what I'm looking for. It looks like Widgetsoid is the only way to do that without the notification bar tweaks from Cyanogenmod.

I tried the free Widgetsoid, and added the powerwidget to the notification bar, but nothing toggles when I press the buttons. There is an option to have a popup launch when pressing a button in the notification bar, but that defeats the purpose.

Is it working for you and are you using the donation version? Maybe my settings are off. There is a section in the "Notification" menu of Widggetsoid that says "Open popup" and says: "Open a popup with widget inside after click on nitifcation. If toggle work inside notification you can uncheck." That would indicate to me that the developer is aware of the fact that the notifications might not toggle in the notification bar.

My settings (please let me know if I'm missing something)
Added 4*1 to a home screen to create a widget.
Added Wifi, Bluetooth, GPS, Sound, Brightness and Screen Orientation to a Widget
Under Notification: Hide notification icon (checked) Open popup (unchecked) Use custom style (checked) with round corners, changed the color to green (since I could not see the notification buttons otherwise) Saved to profile and then applied.

Did I miss something?

Yes I am using a D2G... I used Metamorph to place the 4g icon in place of the 3g just to mess around with some friends lol.

But I am using Widgetsoid2.x and was having trouble getting it up there at first. But here is a video of the developer going through the application.
