[ROM] VZW_2.4.5 - Stars Wars, No Star Wars, Clean & Super Clean

[Redflea]

So I'm still waiting on Verizon to call and tell me my phone's in. I guess that's good because its given me time to read and re-read a couple of these threads.

Basically what I've gathered is:

-R2 has a newer build (2.4.5) and can't accept the 2.4.0 ROMs.
-There seems to be only one dev working on a 2.4.5 ROM. Thanks Moto!
-There isn't a .sbf for 2.4.5 so if one screws something up, they're SOL.

Now a couple questions...

-Who's gonna step up and create this .sbf file? I'm a concert promoter/graphic designer not a programmer.
-Is there even enough interest for this file? I would assume so, but seeing as how most of the devs don't own an R2, it's kinda questionable.

I originally stated I wanted to root and flash some custom ROMs. But now, even though I'm fully confident rooting, flashing, running RSDlite on the D1, I'm having second thoughts. But I have 30 days to return and I'm crossing my fingers more ROMs and the .sbf file will be available before then.

I see donations to those involved.

The Droid community does not create SBF files, they have all been leaked. I don't know if they are possible to create, but given I've never heard it discussed before.

SBF files have a consistent history of "leakage" so it does seem like a 2.4.5 SBF will eventually show up.

SBF files can be edited/hacked/created. Just have to have the right tools and the know how. Back in the day we use to modify some nextel phones using file formats very similar, if not the same as SBF.

Take a look at MotoCahe1's Root thread for the Droid 1. He has some custom SBF files that he made.

Thanks...duh, was coming back to correct myself, since after I posted I remembered about the SP Recovery SBF that I've actually used myself.

Im getting FC on battery manager any fixes for this?

I believe the fix is plug in, access battery manager.

Then it should stop FC'ing on or off battery until you reboot again.

So i see the removed packages folder, but how do i install the .apks in there? I tried clicking and it prompts to install...then it says failed

Copy them to the system app folder using root explorer and set proper permissions.

or if you have adb installed do this at the command prompt
adb shell
su
cp /sdcard/Removed_Packages/<name of file> /system/app/
chmod 644 /system/app/<name of file>

Sync contacts

I love the super clean rom it works great and the black notification status bar. The problems i'm facing are the text messaging that comes with the notification bar closes everytime it opens and I cannot sync my facebook contacts. dancedroid

Strange...I am not getting any FCs and using same app. Try clearing the data and cache for it then reboot to see if it still does not. Facebook from Market will not sync contacts and/or pics. Blame the blur contact pacakge.

So far so good. The only issue I'm having is that with Launcher Pro, the Dialer, Messaging and App Drawer are all Moto Blur theme icons (ugly). The normal icons usually in Launcher Pro don't appear so I can't change them. I can install the Launcher Pro .apk and everything is fine until I reset the phone and everything goes back to being ugly again. Any suggestions?

download launcher pro from the launcher pro website, rename the file to com.fede.launcher.apk
attach phone to pc using pc mode
open command prompt
go to folder where com.fede.launcer is located
type the following adb commands at the command prompt
adb push com.fede.launcher.apk /system/app/com.fede.launcher.apk
adb shell "/system/bin/chmod 644 /system/app/com.fede.launcher.apk"

you need to have adb installed. If not I will place the stock launcherpro in update zip format on the 2nd post of this thread in a little bit.

That would be most helpful as I don't use adb. Thanks!!

Hey motoboy, I currently have your deodexed stock files installed with the black HTC status bar and love the look. I wanted to try one of your roms and I think clean would work best for me. Is there anyway to keep the black status bar and use clean? Thanks!
