Hey guys, I'm creating a rom, but I have to be honest: I need ideas on what to include. All I know is I'm thinking about basing it off Gumbo 1.5c (The FASTEST rom out there), because I hate slow phones. Also thinking of names for it...how's Pancake sound? Fits in with cupcake, donut, etc...
What do you guys want in a ROM?
What bootscreen is good for it? Should I use the N1 boot screen? If anyone feels like making one, I'll be happy to include it!
Which apps are a must for any ROM?
Is Pancake a good name for it?
Thanks for answering in advance, I want to try to make a ROM adjusted to what the fourm would want.
After I get some responses, I'll create the ROM.

Can you include a spoon, a pair of scissors, a fish scale, and a can opener.....?
Well what consider a must have is the quickboot app and the mount usb app that gbill included in his roms..... of course wireless tether , also gbill's custom kernal
Other then those everything else I use is in the market
Check this out.
I would consider making almost the same as stock ROM with all the apps and features. But here are some changes to be made:
1) Theme, here is my old phone and developers create much better stuff for it than any developer for Hero.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=619980
Also, include new sense UI look (Not like the stock). Dark Black background always good.
- Include icons from 2.1 Android.
2) Youtube App, needs to be fixed
3) Make sure Flash works in Browser (Most of the ROMS, FLASH works half way--go to HTC.com and see if shows the page)
4) Include all of the hacks for speed as well as APP2SD.
Okay, great... That's all for now. I will let you know if I think of anything else.

Okay, well, I will try to get the icons for android 2.1, apps2sd will be enabled, the youtube app I will look at, but I'm not sure what I can do about that. I can't do anything about flash, as the hero includes flash player lite, not 10. I will include it when there is flash player 10 for android, but for now I can't do anything for it.

If you want a grill, just run wireless tether for awhile, flip over your phone and cook right on the back of the battery cover. It'll be hot enough.

Okay guys, I'm going to start making it, just missing two things I need to know: Should I include HTC sense and also, what bootscreen should I do?
do the digital rain boot that one is fun, would go with sense it has better widgets

I will try, but I need someone to do themes. Also I want to push a initial release out, coming very soon, maybe if I get a theme designer I'll be able to include it.
hey everyone, I am about to release my rom (swag squad) and I was just wondering what features people REALLY want to see.
If you could just post what features you want to see I'll try and include every feature in the rom.
I know this may seem like a stupid thread but I think developers can be much better if people just tell them what they want.
Just post any questions in the thread and the rom will be released in the next 2 days or so.
thanks,

Haha. at this point the rom is going to be 2.2 until a stable version of gingerbread is released for one of the "new"droid phones (Dx, D2, D2g, Dpro).
I am working on status bar controls on the pull down. Like on cyanogenmod and MIUI.
AOSP!!
Cool themes and icons instead of vanilla
thanks for the response,
The rom will be themed and it will have totally different icons than AOSP because in my opinion the AOSP icons are ridiculous.
The rom is based off of gummyjar right now but I will soon convert it to being based off of fission (gummyjar was originally based off of fission also). If tanzite turns out to be a completely stable AOSP alternative I will consider basing it off of that but at this point I have my doubts.
I am going to include the stock AOSP keyboard along with an HTC sense keyboard themed to look like the MIUI one and the controls in the status bar will not be released alongside the beta but should be out once the rom itself is out of beta.
Thanks,
ljbaumer
I'm not too worried about themes as I have a set 'theme' I kinda patch in to every rom I run but a black status bar with white text would be good as the default imo. Not sure if any of these would make it but here's a few things I would like to see:
Gingerbread Keyboard as main kb - The latest release of it as a standalone addon works very well on the D2 and the shrink effect is now gone
AOSP Lockscreen sliders
You mentioned the status bar icons already, but I'd love to see those in a rom on the D2
Have none of the google apps installed to the system by default, let users install them from the market or backups
And the impossible one for last!!! A battery manager that doesn't force close 50% of the time!
I have a few suggestions:
1. A charging light would be much appreciated, half the roms out there dont have it and its really an issue for me as I always think my phone is not charging.
2. Use the latest ADW (If that is what you are going to use), I dont like installing a new ROM and not having the choice to add or subtract screens or changing any launcher settings.
3. Have an alarm clock in by default. One of the main reasons I use fission is because I can still use the blur alarm with it, as I am not really impressed with any other alarm clock on the market.
4. Speed is always nice but without blur these phones run pretty smooth so im not too worried.
5. Make it work. This is kinda general but I just want a rom that I dont have to fiddle with to make it work. I agree with an above poster to leave everything out and just let us install it but things like the camcorder, GPS, USB etc are things that should work out of the box I dont want to have to wait for a new release so I can find my way through town.
Finally, thanks for helping out with these phones. I had to go to stock (Blur) for a little bit the other day and it just kills these phones people like you make me happy that I dont have to deal with a slow ass phone after spending 200 dollars on it.

One version of the rom will come out with a black status bar and one will come out with a white. Neither of them are the stock black and white bar but modded versions.
I will try and include the GB keyboard and I didn't know it worked by itself. If you or someone could post a link to it I will include it as soon as I can. I also include a MIUI themed HTC keyboard which I think works incredibly well.
The rom dosen't include battery manager because of force close issues but under settings-about phone-battery use- you can see all of the things that have been using up the battery in the same way.
I think it will have the GB sliders at the beginning once it is released but soon after I will switch over to stock AOSP sliders with a blue option.

1: at this point I don't really know how to include a charging light lol. But if you give me the link to a rom that includes one I can probably figure it out.
2: personally, I am a HUGE launcherpro fan but I understand that a lot of people don't like having to pay $2.99 for the extra features and the free version isn't that great so I may end up including ADW launcher+launcher2
3:I will use the blur alarm clock
4:there will be basically no blur except for: camera, camcorder ( i think blur camera and camcorder work much better), alarm clock, and files.
5: I don't really get what you mean by let you install GPS and USB...
Thanks for the feedback,
ljbaumer
Try basing it off of Ultimate Droid for D2 when the final stable is released. It's AOSP and RC2 is running damn well on my D2, minus GPS and camcorder.
i wish there was a way to get the iphone keyboard i know the market has lookalikes but they dont perform like the real one (thats the only thing i like about iphones btw) or to stick with android it would be fantastic to get the dinc sense keyboard if there was some way to make it work.

Iphone keyboard would be hard because it uses a different file type for applications and I would have to spend forever porting that over and I would probably need to finish learning java and the android APIs (which I am working on).
The sense keyboard is a themed droid inc keyboard and it will end up using the gingerbread keyboard and the sense keyboard will be a second option.

status bar controls are not the easiest thing to port and it won't be there on the first release but should be there pretty soon after.
I would usually be totally up for anything a user want EXCEPT for rotary lockscreen.
Sorry guys but rotary lockscreen is not going to be featured in swag squad because personally I hate how it looks. sorry
Right now I am converting the base of the rom to fission. I would release the rom right now except for my website and paypal donate are not up and I want those things to be up before IU release the rom.

I'm almost done moving everything over to the fission base, I just have to make the black status bar theme and then test it out.
I will work on my website tonight and hopefully I can finish it by the end of tomorrow so I can release the rom.
All my requests have been slowly added to various ROMs so far, except one. Notification power controls would be absolutely amazing. The one feature I've never seen on a D2 ROM that I want a lot.

It should be very fast especially since it is based off of fission which is just about as fast as roms get on the DROID2.
Battery life should be decent as well.
Gingerbread is not really my thing but there should be a fair amount of gingerbread apps included.

Ok,
SO here is my question:
I have a droid incredible. I have been using Cyanogen for a long time now. I do like the ROM. HOWEVER, I do like sense...call me crazy but I like it.
Here is my problem. I want a custom ROM that has sense enabled that lets the home screen auto rotate. I know they are capable of it as my brother in law has the EVO shift and when the keyboard slides out the home screen rotates.
Now, before you respond I know I can get a launcher like LauncherPro and ADW, but that defeats the purpose. I want my Sense widgets to work.
Even more so, I know Beautiful Widgets accomplishes, roughly, the same thing. I have had some really bad performance issues with beautiful widgets.
So my question is. Is there a sense rom that will auto rotate the home screen when I flip it.
Thanks!
I believe the only thing your going to find is a Z rom thats ported to the Inc.

Well the z roms here are ported just as much as cm. Try em out b4 u say you dont want it. Theyre pretty nice. There are only a cpl issues so far. But the answer is no not at the moment, what youre lookin for is a z rom feature, "new sense"

try Lou's Redemption rEVOlution(EVO framework) or Redemption Rom, based off stock. I really like the rEVOlution.
I dont seem to see a download link for the z roms.
Any direction someone can point me in?
Additionally, I'm capable of installing roms left and right but I dont understand them that well.
When I hear something is ported, it worries me sometimes. If Z is good I will go for it.
Any chance any of these roms are in ROM manager
Nevermind, little searching I found it.

REVOlution isn't a Z rom. Try Uber Z or Business Sense Z. Any of the Z ports will rotate Rosie.

I have that downloaded and ready to be flashed over to my incredible (that will be here in a few days, its in the mail). But does it rotate? My last phone had a keyboard, having no keyboard, at least a rotated screen keyboard, would drive me crazy.
The keyboard yes. I'm assuming your referring to it rotating while inputting text? The stock rom will do that also.
Oh I know the stock rom will do it, but I wouldn't be on XDA if I was going to keep the phone completely stock
How about if I tilt the phone sideways, will it go into landscape mode like my...windows phone does, or my old blackberry storm did. I guess that was part of my question.
Nope. I guess try the Z-rom if thats a big concern of yours. No landscape at the homescreen.
Cool, I'll do some more lookin around
Ok, so how about landscape mode while web-browsing?

I currently have Hyperdroid GBX working on my hd2.... been using it for a few days..... I'm confused whats the difference between this and the cm7 version..
If anyone can reply with some insight... thank you very much for your help....
and thank you pongster for your great work and contributions to android and hd2 community...
i would like to know this too. been running the gbx version since 7 and now on version 8 and very happy with it.
Sent from my HD2 using XDA App
From my quick experience with both, GBXv8 is smoother but HDCM7 is more customizable. I would love to use the HDCM7 but I need my ROM to be SMOOTH and GBXv8 is as smooth as my Nexus One with CM.
I've generally had a good experience with gbx8
another question i have is that in gbx8 there is only adw?? There is no way to use just the normal program launcher??? Thanks again!!!

You might be able to extract the default launcher apk (app) from any stock ROM and install it on gbx8. The stock gingerbread launcher is also in the market i believe (search gingerbread launcher). I use launcherpro (smoothest launcher IMO).
I think the only difference is that the CM7 one is Cyanogen Mod. It has more features and settings etc. and they're usually smoother ROM's.
Can't you just download LauncherPro and use HomeSmack to change your default launcher?
thanks for everyones help...
i took the plunge and installed the cm7 version.. tried it for a little bit...
dont think its for me..
Actually it almost seemed like it was the same as the gbx.... but just with a few more programs and settings I dont believe i'd use....
i will go back to the gbx version....... cheers....
Is wifi Tethering working on gbx8?
The only difference is cm7, which offers more customization, and themes! Ive run both battery life is a hair, and I mean a hair better in gbx, but it alos depends how u use the phone. I find the speed to be the same. Gbx is great if u just want a phone, cm7 is great if your one of those people that go through every setting menu, every different comfiguration just see what it does.

Another difference that seems important is that the CM7 version gives you all the awesome Cyanogenmod settings, one of the best of which is that option to change the lock screen times. This is something I really miss after trying out the GBX version because now every time the screen turns off, or I shut it off, I have to unlock the phone when I turn it on again. I miss the CM7 setting where I could say not to lock the phone for 5, 10, 15, 30 minutes.
Also, I do feel that Launcher Pro is smoother (i.e. faster frame rate for very smooth scrolling) than adw.launcher, but adw is free and doesn't ask you to upgrade to a paid version when you try to do some things (like resize widgets).
All in all, I think I preferred the CM7, but I had to rebuild the phone when it started acting up. I'll stick with GBX for a while and just keep unlocking the phone every time I get a message Unless someone knows something I can do!
you could use GoSMS and just let it turn the screen on for you when u receive a message lol, lazy mans option....and i love it
What do you want to see or not see in RoyalGinger V1.5?
Like I said in the actual RoyalGinger thread on the Development page we wanted to pull the community and see what you guys like and dont like and what you want to see and what you dont want to see. I know at least for me I might try other Roms especially for testing but I always come back to RoyalGinger, This little red head has in my opinion everything a Rom needs and everything a Rom user wants. So just to make it more of the Peoples Rom we wanted to see what you guys like and what you guys dont like.
So please keep it short and simple if you want to see a specific thing like a Theme or a Mod please include the link to the thread.
It will help us find what we are looking for and get to making your wishes happen. If you want something just let us know we will honestly try our hardest to meet every wish of the community for V1.5. If we dont get your idea into 1.5 I will let you know and let you know if it is possible and if it will be coming on a later release.
Thank You all for your support.

Do you mean the stock clock that flips with the Weather? if so I cant include the one made by HTC cause that is a Sense Only item and it is not Open Source, But I am pretty sure I can accommodate your request with something. So great suggestion it will be in the next release.

Yes, it is that one. No wonder the question has been asked a few times on the net (when I Googled) and no one seems to know.
Ok, no problem. There are a few other apps out there that are similar. But not quite. Thanks though.
Top request if at all possible would be the original camera. Picture quality is better and speed is wayyyy faster.
DSP Manager
Car Dock (even though it’s available as apks)
Genius Button (I personally like it)
Ability to mute camera sound

That's another great idea. I have been working on that already and yes that will be in the next release.

Personally, I like this Rom as is... Though I moved on to using Royal Mint as my daily just because of the sense look... Love the work TeamRoyal... I have the zip, and a backup with all my most used apps for EVERY Rom I have ran across with the TeamRoyal name on it...

1. Ability to receive MMS view like on stock froyo.
I hit download, and it rarely works. Stock it normally already has picture showing, instead of hitting download.
2. A big pickup, although i don't think it is possible, would be to add date along with clock in status bar.
3. Calendar similar to stock calendar, which is default month view.
4. I love the themes with battery display % options.
BTW, you guys are most excellent!
royalknight, hope you gets to feeling better, brohim....
all in all, fantastic rom, but.... (and since you're asking), this is what i would like added:
(1) stock mt4g calendar (pink in color i believe) because there's more options than the one included with RG (ie. ability to have agenda view when executed). if it's tied to sense and can't be ported to RG, then no worries.
(2) use of the genius button with dragon dictation (already mentioned). i'm not sure if i'm the minority here, but i used that app a lot.
(3) desk dock/car dock (already mentioned).
(4) stock camera (already mentioned).
not sure if there's anything else that this rom needs as i'm sure the more you add, the better chance it will become slower...
The problem with the "stock" apps you are all referring to from the original rom, is that they require sense frameworks to function. Unless HTC open sources sense, we may never be able to make it happen. (doesn't mean we can't try )
I think this should stay as close to stock Google as possible.
By trying to add in all this sense stuff... why don't you guys just use a sense rom and install the gingerbread launcher. That's basically what you want this rom to be.
I enjoy this rom because of how minimal it is. Please keep sense junk out.

People's request in AOSP roms are always sense related add on's. Launcher pro has some good alternatives for sense widgets and so forth. But I agree, keep this rom bare and clean in AOSP standards. Although I would like it if you guys added Torch app back on
And I do have a question, I love the rover theme included, but I feel like that actual battery percentage decreases my battery life by a lot everytime I use that theme. Any way you can take out that battery percentage out in the middle of that circle?

The battery life decreases due to the broadcast message required every time it changes a percentage and has to call a new image to be displayed.

man bummer... i love that theme but thats a killer for me. anyway you knwo how to take it out?
A completely blacked out (inverted them would be really nice) Kind of like the the terminal settigns, but with maybe more feel and texture than those. I do a lot of night use, that would be good. I like the terminal ones, but some things completely get lost in the transition. Now I am asking for too much!
This rom is so customizable, and now that I have a clean install, the fc have for the most part disappeared, and I have not even thought about flashing stock, like I normally did.

10-4, just wasn't sure how feasible it was... it's not a deal breaker if none of those happen, but he asked... have a good one, option...
thought the stock camera was a part of the sense framework as well, could be wrong.
My main request is to have a ROM specific theme. I switch ROMs a lot and after flashing lots of ROMs now on different phones (I'm the go-to guy at work now), I like the aesthetic touches a lot of devs put on their ROMs. You guys are adding more and more tweaks in this regard, so I doubt this even needs to be a request, but it's really cool to see those extra touches. After seeing gingerbread on so many different phones now, I've come to learn how unimpressive it is visually. Using the theme engine could then satisfy the themers out there, giving them the option to use what they want, but allow you guys to offer the Royal Theme that makes the ROM your own. I've also seen things like boot animation/fonts/optional app install scripts written into the settings. Things like that offer customization within the ROM and help it to stand out from AOSP GB.
