Modaco alpha3 test rom is up

Here is the link to the page Thanx P!! SCROLL DOWN TO POST 59!!! No Wifi though...Be thankful folks. ...And yes IT IS A WORKING DESIRE ALPHA ROM....NO BOOT LOOPS FOR ME
To the Mods....Just sharing the love

Something to live for...
Okay So of course if your here is beacuse your waiting for modaco to release the new alpha, well alpha three was released as you see above and with the alpha2 boot image all the communications are locked down.
Here are some screen shots of this Beauty. I will Spread them around once everything is up and running. Also I have placed the alpha2 img.. for you to download...
Just unzip this and flash this via fastboot only after you have just flashed the alpha** rom.. K?

Does Flash work?

Its loads the flash but so far i can't get a video to play. It says Video unavailable or something. Im sure someone will get a way to work. I don't think it will be too smooth though honestly.

Little By little we pile up in here now, and THIS IS GENERAL SO MOD, LEAVE IT BE.... Now, I say that it is a good move.. I notcied that if i flash the alpha2 boot it works as its on but if you reboot were back to the white screen so, guess this is being worked out.
Besides that.. I kept a Nadroid of the one without alpha2 and then run the one with it. I have not switched back to another rom SINCE!!!
Addition: If you have the alpha 3 rom and you flash the alpha2 img.. you will end up back at the white screen upon reboot.. No biggie, just have to revert to your alpha3 nandroid (WHICH SHOULD HAVE MADE BY NOW) and flash it again. So runn it lightly until P comes through tomorrow, well a few hours for him, and see where this goes...

Aw man.... That's the thing I was mostly looking forward to
Imagine iPhone users' looks when they see that

Did you try switching browser user agent to Desktop btw? Or try Dolphin?

Nandroid Back Up
Hey, How can I get this to be a Nandroid so I can Megupload this... This way people can run it with everything done.. I mean apps, paid, free, better keyboard, root explorer, jesus the list rides...
I wanted to do that do everyone can have a one click solution and just run the rom right from when they sign in with everything...
Just asking...
Honestly, I see flash in this as in or out thing.. I searched on google for best flash sites and got some water site, marc ecko, etc... This showed on the device with all of it working.. Many sites i should work.. I just dont know where the median is on this. I cant tell.

Hey JesusCat could you please link us to an alpha3 download?

It looks like Google Voice isn't working for calls, I still dial out with my normal number not my GV number.

I don't believe you would be able to post that nandroid on here in accordance to the rules on warez.

Nandroid Back Up
Okay, My wife sort of talked to me and made sense.. Instead of doing it with everything I will get it to where you have to sign in and download all your apps or crawl back from SD. I will get a Nandroid Up in the Morning as soon as I see something from P. This way you could have it this simple way too. I guess i will be helping him out with a simple one click push of his mods...

How would this be different from having to wipe and flash the ROM? The main reason I am saying this, is because on the G1, restoring nandroids from another G1 would result in some hardware issues sometimes, so I wonder if this would persist on the N1.

Well, this is the case.. It all works the same... All nexus are the same, depending on personal daily abuse... I could do this and get it done, but, after thinking, discussing and addressing the situation.. i would say there is no diff in flashing versus the nandroid. I just wanted to make it easier, but, as my lady said, lets let it be Modaco's game...
Only his..

I can report Orb works both via browser & the new
Orb app, wifi only so far, but that may be my server settings.

is it possible to pull the livewallpaper.apk out and install it on an unrooted nexus one?

A quick look into the livewallpaper.apk from modaco's rom shows no differences from stock nexus livewallpaper.apk.

Market Apps Backup and Restore missing from Froyo EB13?

Has any of the devs out looked into why we haven't had the Market apps/setting restore feature like we had on Froyo DK28 in EB13? I'm referring to the option when you were in the Android Setup Wizard after a wipe and flash of a new ROM you would be prompted about Google backing up and restoring your apps/settings. There was also options for this under Settings>Privacy.
They are still in the .apks (Settings.apk and Setupwizard.apk) I decompiled them and found the xml's and all are still there for this feature but for some reason or another I can't get it to function again under CWM3.0.0.6/EXT4. I haven't tried it under CWM 2.x.x.x/RFS .
I also doubled checked the build.prop and its set to OPTIONAL at the setupwizard line. Same goes for ROMS containing the extra default.prop.
I would really like to have this feature back in my ROM.
Thanks.

Sorry I didn't catch that thread or I would of commented there..
I hope Dameon87 or one of the seasoned devs can provide an answer.
I wonder if this is possibly EXT4/kernel related like the redirector issues ?

No, file system doesn't make a difference. It's missing from the stock RFS build also.

Hey TJ, glad to be of help.

This is great! Thanks so much, the only question I have is, do you know why messenger will force close when trying to get or send video or files?
Was trying to send a video and it crashed and some audio files for ringtones and it crashes.

You are right, I had not notice because I only tested MMS with pictures. Thanks for the feedback... I will look into it.
Edit: I did some testing and it seems to only crash in GB ROMs. The modded Mms.apk is from a Froyo ROM which leads me to think that it is a compatibility issue of some sort. Which ROM are you using?

hey thanks a lot endoki..i was a lil frustrated wen my mms wasnt working but thanks to u and ur research im glad that i can see pics and stuff..also same problem as others cant get audio files and video to download cant recive any luck on wats going on with that??? thanks again

!!!!!Wow, I was/am so excited to see this in the thread list!!!!!
Does this fix the data dropping issue too or just the MMS?
Looks like long SMS still isn't working, I'll just switch to handsent for that I suppose.
Is there a way to keep the gingerbread mms.apk if we decide we care more for the long sms functionality? Or could you possibly add it as an attachment?
Testing the data now..if it holds out I'll definitely be buying you a cup of Joe
Nope, there it went..I guess this is just for the MMS..do you have any ideas about the data dropping issue?

I'm running GSB 2.6, and data drop is rare for me. I have a pretty clean set up, not extra scripts or flashes aside from GSB, Gapps, and MetrOFF. On the rare occasion I do notice a data drop, enabling and disabling Airplane mode fixes it quickly.

You are much welcome! The modded Mms.apk included in the fix is from a Froyo ROM. I am thinking it is a compatibility issue with GB that is causing it to crash when loading audio/video files... this is pure speculation right now as I have yet to decompile it and explore further. I think it is time to mod a GB Mms.apk and make two separate fixes; one for GB and one for Froyo.

Sorry to bring your hopes down, but nothing yet on the data drop issue. The fix is just for MMS.
About the long SMS, I am looking into modding a GB Mms.apk and making two separate fixes; one for each ROM type, aiming to solve both, long SMS and audio/video loading issues. Meanwhile, I can make a version of the fix that does not include the Mms.apk if you guys want it.

This Mms.apk attached has the split functionality, but can someone test it to see if it will work sending MMS? If it does ill update my thread with this one. Please let me know. Of course make a backup before just in case something messes up.

Flashed DecafuctCFSv6 this morning and my phones been running much better on GSB2.6. Hasn't froze at all, and battery life seems to be improving. Haven't dropped data at all, but that was rare for me anyways.
Thank you for the suggestion.

endoki, awesome job brother. I figured since you were working on this, we didn't really need to do a separate rom and glad to see it's working out great this way so far.
If I was on cricket or metro I could be a lot more help. I'll just help supply roms along with the other devs, and you keep supplying the metro/cricket crowd with a means to make those roms work
Everyone wins!
Congrats again and thank you for the time you put into providing this work.

is the decafuct kernel going to affect the functionality of workshed's gingerbread rom? has anyone tested this?
What radio did you flash?

however i would really like to keep my sas 3 progress , if i backup the app with titanium and restore after the update will the game be saved at the same levels? or would i need to start again?

i gave you thanks for the reply, but are we 100+25% sure it will save my level it taken literally hours to get where i am in this game.

I have used Titanium backup many times on my Acer a500 and sgsii, and it has worked every time i have restored. Only restore user apps, not system apps. They can create trouble for you.

I personally use my root backup. Has worked every time. If you want to be 125% sure, backup with both. You can then backup & restore app & data on that game and should be golden.
Good luck!

any of you guys on this ive had 2 peeps say sods back but i think its from incorrect wipes what do ya reckon?

Probably not wiping problem. I have had that problem in AOKP for a500 and cm9 for my Galaxy s ii, and i tried all wipes without fixing it. Probably a good idea to try another one.
Thor's ICS ROM seems like the most stable to me of the custom roms.
You can also look for the rooted official roms. I tried one, but was a bit slow...

Good luck & Have fun,

well if your totatly nervous about doing it, you can make a backup with TB and then backup the folder in the (internal)sd card, it should be in a folder like android/data I think do some digging you will find it in there

i would have thought if its a login web server game if you download onto another device, sign in and see if your stats are the same. if so then you can safely uninstall and re-install.

You could also use DataSync & save locally or to your Dropbox if you really want redundancy. I have never had TiBu fail me.

I am proud to present my first custom rom!
GWiz (Used to be Superskilled) is a ROM that has minor tweaks here and there and some debloating. This is meant to be an basic rom for users to enjoy.

Features
-Knox Removed-ish (LP)
-Lightly- Debloated
-Many more
-Very basic as you can see..
Installation
1. Have TWRP or CWM recovery installed (Use T805 recoveries)
2. Download the ROM
3.Backup your stuff in TWRP or CWM
4. Wipe dalvik,data, and caches (AKA Factory reset)
5.Install the ROM
6. Reboot and wait
7. Done?
