[Q] Privacy settings in 2.2 leak, auto backup etc? - Epic 4G General

Just curious if any of the devs might be willing to explain the program data back and restore features and what are the benefits/risk of using/not using these features with leaks versus official roms?

[Q] OTA rom updates

Was just curious as to what it takes to make this feature available through rom manager for the epic.
Once 2.2 is official and source drops.. or even when a pure asop rom drops the wheels for roms will begin turning and the ota update feature would be a nice touch

Miss a few stock apps...

I am running rubix focused and love it but I miss the stock messaging app that allowed you to view the emails in a small window. Is it possible to get and use that stock app or is there a similar app that will work as well as the OEM?
Also, is it possible to get the free version of Quick Office that came with 2.2.1 and use it with the rubix rom? Thanks.
Check sysadmin-x's guide to flashing a new rom... i feel like that would help your situation

Sorry... i meant to post this on another thread :/

Also... i had a similar question when i flashed liberty i missed the blur messaging app for some reason.. and from what people said on the thread its easier to integrate say.. the camera in a blurless rom rather than the blur messaging...

Ok, so some of the apps are part of blur-as in you can't simply find them in the old 2.2.1 files and use them on a custom rom?
Thanks for the reply.
You can... if you're using rubix try the blurry version as it allows you to restore the blur via a tookbox i believe.... I'm on apex that allows you to restore blur via scripts

Thanks I will give it a try. I didn't know if you could simply install the bur camera and camcorder onto focused.

What can I do with my EVO shift if I root it?

Well I'm thinking of rooting my phone but I don't know what custom things I can do with it. So what can I do if I root my phone? Haha

Is your phone running 2.2 froyo or 2.3.3 gingerbread?

Check the threads.. you currently can't root if your running Gingerbread.
Yea you currently can't root yet but when someone finds a method of rooting here's some of the things you can do
1) wireless tether (free) be able to use your phone as a wireless hotspot for free
2) make full backups of your system to restore to
3) Flash a sense rom that is optimized to speed up your device a lot
4) Flash custom kernels to overclock to speed up the phone and Undervolt to save battery plus more
5) Flash AOSP roms for stock android or flash something like MIUI which is a ROM with a different take on android
6) Batch Backup and restore apps
7) remove unwanted sprint bloatware
Those are just some of the things you can do
How much battery saving can be achieved by Undervolt?

A lot if you take a look at ScaryGhouls thread in the development forum he has a kernel called SUV which is Super UnderVolt and it means he put the kernel at very very low voltages. only some phones can handle the SUV though but he also has a stable one which is still UV'ed a lot. But his SUV one Is my favorite kernel devolped for the shift right now I love it. It saves so much battery. I can almost go a day and a half with it.
But until HTC releases source code he can't make one for sense 2.3.3 he only has one for AOSP roms

No problem. Once the evo 3D gets perm root the evo will shortly after that and then once the evo has it we will have it shortly after THAT.
Now that's not for sure but i would bet money tht will be what happens

[Q] Debloated Stock ROM?

Is there just a debloated stock ROM? it can be froyo or GB, i dont care. If it was for my phone i wouldnt care, but this is for my friends phone who works out of town for weeks at a time, and he is not tech savvy at all. So I want it to be stable as possible. I cant seem to find one.
I recommend trying Gingerbread Liberty, Apex, GingerAle, or ZombieStomped.
Roms on the Droid X can't be completely debloated as it causes the phone to bootloop, but these roms are as debloated as possible and are also tweaked for faster performance along with better battery life.

I found this one. I have home on Rubix 2.0 right now, but the camera isnt working and he needs backup assistant. I see with the ROM on the link here i can insert the backupassistant apk back in the ROM before installing it. Could i essentially do that with any other ROM that is made from the same version?
That rom looks great, you should be able to add the backup assistant apk back with no troubles.

the best debloated rom (imho) is the STOCK ALLTEL ROM.
i havent seen anything as clean as it is.
it is froyo but it also can be rooted and you can do what you want after that.
the main problem you might have is making it work on vzw network.
i just use wifi with skype so its great for me.
I played with basically EVERY rom back in the Froyo days and honestly... just having a rooted 2.3.3 stock Gingerbread rom with all the extra crap apps removed or disabled with root explorer is very nice especially for someone who is not tech savvy.

[Q] SyNthetic_aospX: is menu configurable?

I just flashed SyNthetic_aospX, with Go Launcher. Love it. Is the top menu configurable, ie: add toggle tethering, flash light...etc, so that I can just pull menu down, and toggle those applications. I used to have them in cynogenMod7 with Go Launcher.
Many thanks. Very grateful for xda.
No. You aren't on a Cyanogenmod ROM. AOSPX gives you stability over options.

Comparing aospx to cm7 is like comparing grapes to a cats . cm7 is meant to be full of cyanogenmod features and is gb (android 2.3). Aospx is pure ics aosp (with slight additions from existz and myself) to try and ensure stability along with as much snappiness as possible. There are apps and whatnot that allow this kind of customization but when it comes to working around aospx for features and stuff, you might receive better info from the users of my releases rather than myself (as I pretty much run this clean).

Agree that SyNthetic is extremely stable, probably be a long term keeper. There are two minor wishes, first having a working VPN with default hotspot/tethering and second having menu customizable/config. I will probably be looking at third party apps for them....
thanks to everyone in xda, especially SyNthetic developers...you guys/gals are my hero :good:

As for the stability, I wish they would put back the framework removed so apps like Google Play would work. AOKP opens those apps with and without updates.
