Is This true.....?

So I've been hearing a lot of talk about a spanish dev that dropped a rom on these forums that is faster than Super D, FastTEst, Cyan, all the eclairs and Stock roms,.....basically, top of the line and untouchable.
wow....
It is referred to as "SuperCSDIV4" anyone heard of it?
Haven't flashed myself yet, thought I'd get a few more opinions before doing so,
is this true?

Just installed this and did a titanium restore and excuse the language but Holy **** this rom flies!!!
I never thought i'd see the day a rom could get me off SuperD but well all I can say is 'Super who?'
Supsetup is an amazing feature here and has full swap/swappiness controls that work. Compcache is available through spare parts (currently not working) not that either are required. When you first start there is a lot of spanish things such as the widgets an has a spanish metamorph but titanium restore took care of that, even restoring my apn settings for me. the speed of the app draw is scary and somehow advanced launcher is built into the home itself. Also this has NO ramhack on it so 3d gaming is fast and furious if your into that. going to install beholdII 3D cube as well to see how it runs as it was slow and sluggish on SuperD and will update when I have more news.
All I can say is welcome to the future of the G1!
SuperD just lost its crown!

OMG.....Gotta flash this right away, thank you shadowch31

Everything seems to be working but the keyboard ALT symbols are different
on the keyboard, bluetooth, wifi, 3g, messaging, everything really! No force closures or problems, sometimes can stutter a little going to home but other than that this thing really is amazing. Had me up all night playing on it. I feel if compcache was working this would solve the stutter problem but still playing with settings.
Will update more as I play.

Okay fixed the keyboard layout, wasn't to hard to figure out and now have full UK qwerty keyboard with the correct ALT character set, anyone needs it I'll post a tutorial.
Also Fix_Permissions is a MUST! I was having a few issuse installing third party apps at first but this is now working thanks to the script.
I've found it best to keep home apps out of memory (spare parts) still working on the compcache problem but hoping to have that fixed soon.

I managed to sign in with google from the wifi at the library, but Google talk wouldn't sign in, so everything I downloaded from market was just at a pause....back home now, adb pushed a copy of Titanium back to phone since market wouldn't let me download, now restoring all apps and data with batch proccess, but there is still no data signal???not even edge, after restoring all settings with Titanium and rebooting should that bring data back?
EDIT: by the way you're right, this rom is smoking fast! Twice as fast as super d, if I get the internet working, Im sticking with this rom for a while!

Alright! That did it.....whewww..thank goodness for Titanium backup!
Everything is in place, internet back, settings, and apps restored. now to enjoy the luxurious speed this rom has to offer

all you had to do was manually put in your apn

[Q] Why cant we do this for the vibrant

I had asked this before but wasn't sure it could be done. Well now its been done for the EVO can someone please do this for the vibrant. This has become even more important to me now that vlingo is free.
Link to swype with voice for evo
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=752040

Can that not work on our phone as well, its the beta that determines what phone you have.... PM the guy who made the edits and ask. I would think it would work fine.

I have tried installing it directly as an apk and the install fails. I have also tried renaming and copying over the current skype and this has no effect, aka the keyboard for skype remains unchanged.
I also went as far as to try the original droid x file with the above two methods and had the same results.
Apparently there are some dependencies or other files involved.
Anyone have any ideas?

If I'm not mistaken you are supposed to flash via recovery. I spent like 3 minutes looking at that thread.

Thanks I missed that as was working with the origonal apk file posted. Trying the zip now

Keep us updated, that looks awesome

Ok ran and installed the zip file and no change. No errors but same as when I copied over the skype file manually. The skype keyboard is unchanged. In my case still the grey smoke colored version from eugene's vibrant4 build.
Anymore ideas? I would really love to get this working but do not know enough to reverse engineer what was done.

It would be nice if they shared what they did so we could try to reproduce it. I would love this mod combined with vlingo now that it's free, since Google's new stuff only works on 2.2.
I'll try to find time to download all the APKs from the various phones and see what's different. If you want to speed things up, send me links to all of them.

All I have is the APK file from the above posted link and I believe I have the original droid x apk for skype as well but it appears it is more then just the single skype file.
I have sent a pm to the creator in hopes he/she will share their secrets as to what has to be done to make this work.

Yeah, I thought we wern't supposed to share swype apks on here though, so I was wanting the original one from the droidx as well as the evo in addition to the one in the post you linked to. I can of course get the Vibrant one from my phone. Let me know if the other devs answer you and I'll try to help out.

http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/0...ent-on-samsung-galaxy-s-and-motorola-droid-x/
Does the i9000 have it? Maybe we can borrow their version?

Well.. what do you know? That EVO one works! Instructions..
backup your existing swype, just in case.
adb pull /system/app/Swype.apk swype-backup.apk
Change your keyboard to a different one, I just switched to the Android keyboard.
adb push swype-evo-tts.apk /system/app/Swype.apk
Now change back to swype. Mic button is now there and it works!
bug/oddness: The pop-up that shows you suggestions is now yellow with light text, it's damn hard to read some of them.

This fixes the word choice window to not be yellow anymore. I used the stock graphics files from the Swype that came with our phones.
Metamorph required, market.

Couldn't make this work no matter what I tried. Your directions were very good but they just didnt seem to work. I sent you a PM let me know what else to try.

Are you using vlingo for the voice button? I haven't tried to do that, it just brings up google's voice input app.

You have to put them in the swype.apk. did you load it in metamorph? It's not an update.zip that you flash in recovery.

The screen looks the same as googles so maybe it interfaces with it but yes I hit the mic from the keyboard and speak and it works. I know it is somehow interfaced to vlingo as if I turn on filtering so I cant swear in vlingo setup then send a nasty text it filters it out. If i turn off word filtering in vlingo it sends the bad words.

Ok I am clueless no idea how to make my own apk and not loaded metamorph. Any chance I could get you to prebuild it into a single apk for me?

[Q] **help with Axura, plzz**

i can't post under the dev thread and i hope i'm not breaking any posting rules but i was hoping someone can help me figure out why everytime i try to install the 2.2.8 or higher it doens't work. everything goes fine untill boot, the screen emulates the tv turning off and black screen after that. it doens't shut off because the home buttons still light up, but screen is black. tried installing with voodoo shut off, or on, nothing. tried going from 2.2.6 which is my daily driver (with tw's dow 1.3 kernel, open to suggestions if another kernel would work better with axura and be around the same performance) anywho, still didn't work. tried going from bionix v to it and still nothing. not sure if im missing anything, agian thanks to all the devs for all the help, hope someone can shed some light on the situation.
thank you boys and girls of the droiddev universe

Try flashing to jfd first then to axura
Instructions - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734475

When I flashed mine I went from 2.2.7 to the newest one I think its 2.2.9.0 when it boots just give it some time it takes a while because its also installing voodoo if you lost your patience and reboot by removing the battery you might have to odin back to stock and reflash axura
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

Boot up on 2.2.8 and later is 5-12 minutes you need to wait. After you install and then reboot, look at the clock and time it, DO NOT rely on your sense of timing.
BTW, it takes a long time to boot after, even when you add a new theme. Remember it is in ext 4 not RFS, that rewrite process is slower.

thanks alot guys, it did just need some more patience on my part, def takes longer than the previous versions, working great, thanks again for all the help. side note, anyone know how i can toggle between front and back cameras in the video callings apps. none of them recognize it, but it works fine for mirror apps and such.

Go to Camera, hit that and open/ then hit the tab to show menu setting (if it is not already open) in the upper left corner there is a little icon with a circle arrow around a camera icon. hit that that changes back to front and vice versa.

[Guide] Newbie to Epic 4G Cyanogen - Common problems solved

Hello,
I am writing this to help other newbies who may want to switch to Cyanogen for the first time on their Epic 4G. There were a few things I needed to do after to get everything working the way I liked and I figure this will save some people time.
What do I need to do prior?
There are many how-to's which will help but I had my Epic stock rom rooted so it was as simple as flashing cyanogen through recovery. Here is the link for a "how-to" root the stock rom if you wish to do it this way. It was the easiest way for me though the official guide says "Rooting the stock firmware is neither recommended nor necessary."
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9eaCtiS0Bo​
Where do I get Cyanogen?:
You can download it here. I am running the 10.0.0 stable build.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Epicmtd_Info​
I have no google apps:
This is a problem with any Cyanogen installation. Easy fix, download & install the gaaps package from the link below and your marketplace will be back.
http://goo.im/gapps​
I don’t have Navigation:
Easy fix again, download the google maps app. Here is the app store link.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DMsImNvbS5nb29nbGUuYW5kcm9pZC5hcHBzLm1hcHMiXQ..​
I don’t have voicemail:
While you can use any voicemail app I wanted the one I had on the stock rom. I linked the app below and your voicemail will be back as soon as you install it. You need to open the app after so that it will activate.
https://od.lk/d/MjRfMjc2MDY5MF8/vtt-sprint.apk​
I am getting texts from 9016 every time I get a voicemail:
From reading it seems the stock rom blocks us from seeing these but they are in fact needed for voicemail to work. To fix this I used a free app called “RedList”. Simply add 9016 to the RedList within the app, change the settings to disable both notifications, and this will problem will be solved. Here is the app store link.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5saW5ub3IuUmVkTGlzdCJd​
Text messages no longer have separate colors for me and my recipient:
The stock android text display is white and I hated this after getting used to Samsung’s nice colors but luckily you can solve this in two ways.
(One) A theme manager is built into the interface section of your settings page. After searching through almost every free CM10 theme I found this one I liked. It does NOT touch too many things only adding a brushed metal look and displaying text messages how I wanted them. There are a few colors to choose from but I went with Blue.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1992980
(Two) Replace only the MMS app with one that is color coded. Please note that unlike the above, to reverse this down the road you will need to find a stock mms app package with an installer. This is good for people who are sure they want this and only wish to change the colors of the messenger, while the above is good for people who like to switch themes often being able to revert back at any second. Link for the colored mms app.
http://www.mediafire.com/?hcjukwwkj4y41h3
Morror: https://od.lk/f/MjRfMjc2MDY5MV8​
Facebook pictures no longer sync with my existing contacts:
This is a small problem, but still one that I got used to having with the stock rom and wanted to correct. From reading this seems to be a problem related to later Android versions, not just Cyanogen. The fix for this is easy as well, search out a free app called “UberSync for Facebook”. I had the regular facebook app installed & logged in prior and UberSync logged right in, got the pictures, and updated my contacts.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsInJvLndlZWRuZXQuY29udGFjdHNzeW5jIl0.​
I no longer have Swype:
Despite having the nice physical keyboard (the whole reason I got the Epic) I still got used to using Swype here or there. I don't think I will be allowed to link this file here but you can find it on "certain" sites.​
Notes:
Despite reports that Bluetooth can be problematic, I use it daily with an earpiece and have yet to experience any issues. GPS & 4G also work great. If any links are broken send me a PM! I check my email daily.​

Why are they so bad? The bring you right to the download and I won't be deleting these files from my dropbox. Much better IMO than dealing with one of those sites where you have to wait 45 seconds for a download link to appear in a sea of other spam download buttons.

Well...
No MD5/SHA1 to compare against to make sure you have a complete download.
People's dropbox tends to get too much traffic and the link becomes dead.
You basically cut out the original author(s) of the file.
Based off # 3: They could need the ad revenue, and/or want to track download activity if they're self-hosting.

I know this isn't directed at me, but the things I have on my box account are older things( Samsung Moment update tool), things I've done for myself, or things that I've found for other people. In other words, things many people don't care about.

#1 - I think more people are concerned with a working link, if they download the archive after and it somehow gets corrupted i'm sure they will just try again
#2 - Valid point though my files don't have a great enough of demand to warrant this. If this changes I will change my links.
#3 The only thing that wasn't mine with a dropbox link was the MMS app and I only mirrored it in case the original link were ever taken down. If it will make you happy I can include the original link as well. For the voice mail app, its simply the sprint one ripped from a stock rom.
Though your points are valid, I think you are sort of just being picky bud

Thanks for the VM download link. Only thing I want is task manager which I had installed on CM9. Is there stockish one that works for 10?

Try the flashable one from here

swype
I reinstalled swype 3 or 4 times with various upgrades and it would always "expire" and I'd have to figure out how to get it working again. I am running 10.1 RC5 now and it has a decent generic swype-ish virtual keyboard. The thing missing is that you can't finish your text and go back and fix any misspelled words by touching alternate suggestions. You have to catch them as they come up. It seems like at first I could still do that, but I can't figure out how to get the suggestions to come back up.
I'm over swype.

You need a different Kernel. I have been using didy's kernel for a while. You flash CM10.1 and then you flash the kernel. CM10.1 has its own kernel that overwrites what you flash. So when you update, i think you have to reflash the kernel. I haven't screwed around with it since I installed rc5. I think I did CM, then the kernel, then the big mem patch. I never was able to figure out how to update the radio. I always ended up with "no voice service" or worse.
There is a thread in the developer forum that has the links to the kernel downloads. I am running one from may 30 and haven't updated.

When you say you couldn't update the radio, you just mean the cell service radio, right? Not wifi? I don't have cell service on my Epic, so that wouldn't be a problem for me... just as long as the wifi radio still works
Also, what specifically do you mean by "or worse"?

Yeah. That's the one. I looked at my about phone and it said "didy".
I saw a thread about the nexus radio being hot **** and I fooled around with it. I got either "no voice service" or no nuthin. I was able to flash back to the regular epic radio. there is another thread that had all the flashable zips with different modems. luckily the epic one undid my stupidity - at least on my phone.

Thanks man, I'll give it a shot. CM10.1 is running pretty smoothly on my phone, but it could be better and battery life is not an issue for me.
I'll be sure to run backups before I do though :good:

Thanks
These tips helped - I just made the jump to CM 10.1, and although there are a few quirks it has been great. Your list really helped.
FYI, one thing I ran into was the auto-rotate didn't work. I followed the directions here:
http://epiccm.blogspot.com/2012/01/boot-el30-stock-from-sdcard.html
the first time, there was no change. I tried again (and calibrated like 6 times) and it worked.
Has anyone noticed the physical keyboard doesn't always work the same? In some places, you have to hold down shift or Fn while pressing the key you want (for example - hold shift while pressing A, rather then pressing shift then pressing A). It's not consistent - some inputs work like the keyboard did before. Does anyone have any suggestions how to fix this. Not the worst thing (I'm just glad I still have a physical keyboard), but I would prefer it work the way it did before, or if that's not possible, at least be consistent.
And the smiley face button on the physical keyboard doesn't work either. I mean, it's like 2005 where I have to type out my 's!!

any phantom voicemail fix?

Not the worst thing (I'm just glad I still have a physical keyboard), but I would prefer it work the way it did before, or if that's not possible, at least be consistent.

I have noticed that the physical keyboard doesn't work right in the browser. Shift and Fn don't seem to work. I am usually in such a hurry that I just close it up and use the virtual keyboard if I want to have punctuation. It honestly didn't occur to me that it might be fixed. I can't offer that fix. I am just offering emotional support and validation.:good:

I noticed that the default browser you have to hold the shift or fn key while pressing the desired key to get it to work. Apps and os seem to work with a tap od these keys and then a hit of the desired key.I recall a while back a thread about the smiley and since it was not a default key the consensus was that they would not be adding the functionality to cm. While on the topic...same goes with the .com function.

Google Dialer - On LG G3

Greetings XDA Members,
I've searched for quite some time, with limited success on keeping a stock rom along with Google Dialer. The best of both worlds if you will, that would allow great features without the loss of another. It was always a debate between using a AOSP rom at the loss of the camera, or sticking to stock and working with xposed to change settings to an agreeable state. With endless google searches, forums read, and opinions given by others; they all seemed to end with "Not Possible". Well, with some trial and error I have found a workable solution that will allow the Google Dialer to replace the stock dialer, and also allow for "In-callui" to replace the stock one.
It also needs to be mentioned, that I cannot guarantee this will work with your variant, custom rom, or other items not factored into the equation. Though this has worked for me without fail on the ATT Model D850 on Cloudy 2.5 but there are a few details to note. The "In-callUI" will show for both Incoming & Outgoing calls, but you will first see your stock one come up for a brief second or so and switch over. For me, this isn't an issue as I don't immediately answer or hang up when a call completes. Some of the items recommended in the prerequisite are optional and provide other ways to find/adjust permissions, or freeze/delete applications (Stock dialer). I'm not personally an avid developer, but if you have any questions I've been able to gain a great deal of knowledge over the years with hands on experience with the Android operating system. Feel free to ask any questions that may come up, and I'll be happy to assist if possible.
Pre-requisites;
LG G3 - Rooted
Custom Recovery with knowledge on Flashing ZIP files.
Root Explorer / File Manager
Nova Launcher / App to launch an activity.
Titanium Backup (recommended to backup Dialer and other applications in case of damage)
Included in the attachments is the file GoogleStockDialerAndMms. This file is a flashable zip that will automatically adjust the permissions necessary to make calls. It's highly recommended that you make a backup of your current rom with TWRP/CWM in case any issues arise. As this adds two files to your system directory, there is always a chance that an error can occur.
If you choose the route of Nova, you can create a shortcut to an activity. Below I've included a screenshot of which activity needs to be chosen in order to use Google Dialer.
Within Nova Launcher, long-press on the home screen.
Choose "Shortcuts"
Select "Activities"
Find "Google Dialer" in the list, then tap to open it up, and select "Phone" (use the first one in the list)
Can I disable my default dialer?
The short answer is no. As a general rule, you will need to keep your present dialer enabled in order to receive calls. The long answer is that on some phones you might be able to disable your stock dialer, but on others you definitely cannot. Feel free to try it on your own device and let us know what your results are. If you choose to do attempt this, I highly recommend against uninstalling and instead move to FREEZING the phone applications with Titanium Backup or similar root enabled application.

Good to see it's over 1200 views and counting. If anyone has any issues, feel free to reply so they can be addressed.

hi @Eruvion, just wanted to check if we get the search feature with your google dialer? or does this depend on the country you live in? thanks.

@resitm As far as I have heard and seen so far, it will work locally depending on the information generated from your local area by google. Please let me know if you attempt it and it doesn't work.

thanks, i will try it once im back home.
yesterday i installed the apk from apkmirror and created a shortcut for google dialer. everything worked as should other that the tab in the most left, i think thats the call history. the dialer FC anytime that icon was touched.

Good job on this even if Im already running an AOSP based ROM, I dont need this.
But you took time writing and explaining everything so thanked all your posts,
Have a nice day

i flashed the zip and everything seems to be working fine. i am also able to search close by businesses, i typed pizza and it showed me the closest pizza places.
the only FC i am getting is in settings when i tap call settings-voicemail, call waiting. i don't use that so its ok for me. thanks again.
also i did not have to create a shortcut, the app icon was there after restart.

@resitm I'm glad everything worked for you! Thanks for letting me know
@Paradoxxx Thank you for your kind words, I'm just glad I was able to give a small contribution to the wonderful community I've used for years!

Good job on your work! I also like Google dialer. Many thanks

This does work on VS985 5.0.1. The settings does crash if you click whatever the second option was (Went back to stock for my own reasons).

@SyCoREAPER thank you for the update!

Doesn't work here....either when triggered from a Nova Settings widget or from the icon in the launcher. Instant force close. I can try to grab a log if you think it'll help?
D852, running Dene_Bluesman's rom (basically stock LG 5.0.1)
Edit - wonder if its because the rom version i'm using is odexed? Going to try the deodexed version and report back....
Edit 2 - nope still crashes instantly. Super frustrating! Please let me know if a log will help! @Eruvion

I want to try this on my lg G2, is there any reason you think it might not work? Anything that would make this zip specific to the G3?

+1 on this. would like to see if we can get this to work on Cloudy for G2.

Hi
This thread seem's a bit dead. Anyway i have flashed this file and it works. I am on N&N 1.3 rom. It's a stock mm based rom.
