Why arent the roms showing up in rom manager? - Droid Incredible General

I have been using ozzeh's rom and have been following all the other rom development. Why aren't the roms showing up in rom manager? I have rom manager premium and all it shows is cyanogen.

I believe the developers of those ROMS have to submit them to be included.
My guess would be they haven't done so for one reason or another.

I think perhaps because they make developers pay to have their ROMs added to ROM Manager, it may deter people from doing it. I also believe if you personally do not have the pay version, you will not be able to receive updates for your ROM.

I don't think devs should have to buy the premium to get their roms listed. Its their hard work that makes rom manager worth having.

I agree. That's pretty messed up.
It's just someone trying to capitalize on someone else's hardwork.

Developers get a free copy of Rom manager premium. It costs them nothing and promotes their Roms. Popular tried and tested roms like cm mod are available to all users while themes and experimental roms are usually only available on premium.

koush has done a lot of hard work for the android community. i dont think this statement is fair.

Koush has done a lot for Android in general and he helped make the recovery flash for the incredible. Please think and understand before *****ing.

Oh I didnt know he maintains rom manager and porting cyanogen too. He has me respect.

New Light Speed rom?

Since my rom isn't out yet I've decided to move the thread here. I'm leaning towards the miui interface as of right now and am testing a miui rom to get acquainted with it and familiar with the guts of it. I got to say that it's very zippy. I had thought about putting together a senseless rom that would be stripped of all unnecessary bloatware and good on battery life not to mention fast. After testing miui for the past day, I'm leaning more towards miui. Out would be relatively easy to compile a rom based on the stock base, but it wouldn't be fresh. I'm still waiting to hear back bout using the name "Light Speed" before I actually make it the official name. Although the idea is to make it light with speed. Essentially you would have to install all your favorite apps but the crucial apps for the operation of the rom would have to remain. Afa launcher and lock screen, I'm still deciding and am open to suggestions.

Are you planning on compiling from source, or pretty much ripping and tweaking different aspects of ROMs into a new compilation?
Hey, I would like to help with development on this. I believe you're looking for collaboration? I've some experience theming, and a little with compiling.
I was thinking MIUI with Rosie? That would be cool

I'm not familiar enough with compiling. Probably just ripping and tweaking for now. Don't want to bork someones phone and need to get a rom going that's stable and reliable first. Maybe after MIUI releases a source code we can cook something up from scratch. Rosie is nice but it would have to be heavily modded to get something outstanding and original.

Just wanted to give an update. Still testing miui by nix right now. I'm probably going to get going with a sense based rom. Work has been hectic. Working twelve hour might shifts seven days a week. It will be a light and fast rom. Still have some things to consider for a miui rom.

lmao that was pretty funny
To be perfectly honest. You're likely to see a 2.3 from Samsung first.
I'm not doubting these developers but its like they just like to theme up the same rom over and over. Pick any rom and its the exact same as the others , just a different theme and some minor tweaks. Tweaks you can find with a quick google.
I have 2.3.1 AOSP booting but 2d isn't working out for me. Some modules aren't building either.
Really vetvito?!?!?! Stop picking a fight.

I know for a fact that these developers do more than "theme and tweak". They not only improve the current roms by increasing stability but they get the sources and build their own kernels and release them for good use. These devs make the vibrant a powerhouse. And they do it for free. So do your research bro

right now, CM is working on CM7 for i9000. and krylon360 of teamwhiskey is working on a direct AOSP build for the vibrant. (CM7 and AOSP ARE different, believe it or not)
So right now, it's kinda split.

Not remotely accurate. Modules? Building? You show you don't know anything about development with your terminology.

Team whiskey us legit, eugene is too(even though his kernels wiped my data and bricked my phone), but it does seem like our "development section is crowded with just a bunch of theme teams.... annoying a dev section should not allow 70% of them, all go to the themes and apps section lol

Rom manager

Why isnt rom manager pro being kept up to date with the newest stuff? Is the program useless now?
From my super clean dl30 fascinate
its useless to me.... koush doesnt like us anymore
I've always felt that this program is essentially useless, at least for this phone, but that's just my opinion. I do all my recovery work manually in red CWM, no need to trust a third party app that may mess something up for me.
Posted from my EB01 SuperClean Fascinate with Voodoo
I love rom manager for easy access to flashing, but was always puzzled why koush forced the developers to go through him instead of making an automated means of adding ROMs to the download section. Seems a bit elitist to me. Many of the Mods and themes never even make it on there.
Sent from my SCH-I500
I wish it would be used for everything that would make life easier. It also supports the devs because you have to buy it.
From my super clean dl30 fascinate
I no longer support it at all due to Koush's indifference toward us. Not only have there been zero clockwork updates, but he never had it properly working in the first place. He has been contacted by devs several times and has remained silent.

Yeah, I bought the Pro version a while ago and wish I hadn't because it has been useless to me. Its a shame because its a fantastic idea for an app. What does he have against Samsung devs anyways?

Crap, I accidentally thanked this post instead of replying to it.
The dev it supports is koush, who has done pretty much squat for SGS phones (there's a reason why we're all running Voodoo-based recovery...). If you want to support somebody who's helped us, donate to jt or buy supercurio's Voodoo app.

I understand that. Is there a way to build a new app? Then everything could be flashed from it. You could also charge for it and all you devs coyld split profit. That would simplifie things and you guys would be well supported by it.

No comment.
So I'll take the high road and politely say that I believe there are plenty of quality ROMs and there are some good mods but I would like to see more concentration on modifying blinkfeed to make it more functional.
This is not my area of expertise so I don't criticize those who put in many long hours doing the work but when I find a rom or mod that I like and use I try to contribute to those who have put in the hard work.

So go make a rom...
Useless thread. Closed

[REQ] Who can help out?

So I am starting a project called Cyality ROM and would like to know if any DEV's want to collab on this for shared and equal credit? The word "cytality" stands for cyber vitality, and in and of itself is implying that this ROM will have a long life in our community. Which is what I'm striving for.
The thing that sucks for me is that I'm a noob and can't find or develop my own base to work from. There are other stripped down TW roms out there I can use, but there's a lot of custom stuff from other devs I don't want.
So I was wondering if a seasoned DEV could do me a big, big favor and provide me with a stripped TW MDL base ROM I can build up and work with. This person will obviously get credit, but I need it stripped. I don't want anyone else's custom apps or settings in it as I want to add my own. I'd like to retain the Samsung features at first, like AirView and all that, but everything else can be removed from it.
I've already searched the forums for something like this and the closest thing I could find was SlimBean, which is nice but it's not a TW rom and it's loaded with custom settings from the devs that I don't want.
Since I'm a graphics designer not a programmer, I want to make a rom that is visually stunning to look at while still maintaining performance. I'm going to incorporate Buzz in it by default and a minimalistic theme that will be gorgeous. I already got approval to use ROMDB for beta so the ROM will have auto updating features, community alerts, etc.
So yea.. if anyone could do this for me I'd greatly appreciate it, and this person will get full credit for their contribution. Thanks!
This is pretty awesome. I can find you a base. I would use the newest Brazilian firmware. Unless you are building for a US carrier. In which I would use the latest M919V fiware that came out today

If I figure out how to convert it to your variant then I'll share the link. I just gotta do a few more things to it.
