I have my girlfriends fascinate rooted and running on google. My question is can someone point to which themes work with the google hack and also what custom roms work with it,
Thanks in advance
CJ
Are you running the stock rom just modified? Which version are you on?
You need to be running a deodexed rom to be able to theme. Have you flashed a custom rom yet?
i am running super clean verison 2.4 and i have flashed custom roms on my droid x but first time flashing on hers.
FYI 2.5 was just released and searching through the site it appears themes for eb01 are working on 2.5.

I was trying to install a .zip file onto my phone, the update/hack to have the fascinate lockscreen on my vibrant, and I was wondering how to install it. I downloaded the LockScreenChoice_UVJI6_clockwork.zip from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=797431 and put it on my phone. Then I booted my phone in clockwor mod and hit install zip from sd card and I selected the zip, I then let it install, but it stayed on the installing screen for 12+ hours, I needed to use my phone so I finally just took out the battery. I know that it did something because my market stopped working and that was one of the complaints from the forum that I got the "hack" from...What did I do wrong and how do i get this .zip to work?
which rom did you have before you flashed the zip?
^ that question.
The ROM may not have supported another lockscreen mod, and this happened, if you confirm to us which ROM you are using then we can actually start helping you.

If you are not using a 2.1 based rom (like Axura, bionix, Loki, etc) then these may not compatible, these were done in October, We need to know the rom you have installed,
Besides, if you Are using a 2.2 custom rom, then these already are installed.
so i am guessing this is a vibrant, and not a fascinate as your topic implies?
Really sorry, yes it is for the vibrant. the rom I was using was just the stock rom, my firmware is 2.1-update1 though and my build is eclair.uvji6 and my baseband version is t959uvji6 also my kernel is 2.6.29 hope that helps
Which Zip did you use?
I used the ji6 zip, not the deodexed one, but the odexed one
I honestly did not know what went wrong, it looks like you did everything correctly. Do you mind using a custom rom? Because Bionix Final have the lock screen build it and to fix your phone, you probably have a reflash stock, either way you have to flash your phone.
If you don't mind moving to 2.2, you can even try the new Bionix-V, which also have the lock screens built in.
I would prefer to stay with a 2.1 rom, but I would not mind having a custom rom as long as it does not change the appearance too much, and I can get the lock screen. Where can I find this rom and a description of it?
p.s. is there any other way to make this work?
Dose any one know where to get the stock kernel for deck rom. I am currently on tiamatone but its too glitchy and szen kernel has, long wake response. I yhink because i update to 1.3b
You can simply re-flash the rom over the current rom, no need to wipe.
Thanks but i done it twice today... I been reading that the original kernel that came in rom works the best i don't have the file nor made a backup
Wont i lose my data like that?
Pretty sure it's in kernel manager lite. Its just the cyanogen mod kernel.
Ok i keep getting nagged to update my g2 I am permrooted using the no adb gfree method. So i have s-off supercid and all that. I want to manually flash a pre-rooted GB rom but I'm hoping for a stock rom with minimal changes. The one exception is I want to be able to overclock, I've been looking everywhere but there are too many options without the specific changes and builds outlined. Just a little confused and looking for advice on a rom that will fit what I'm looking for. I'm happy with the stock feel just want to overclock basically. Any ideas?
BOO! no one has any recommendations?
Xboarder56's stock 2.3 + enhancements can be overclocked and is pretty much just stock AOSP.

Sorry I'm new to some of this lol, but its that off the new ota build? Also does it make a difference? I have a stock rooted rom dvds it works great but I want the option of over clocking just because I can't help myself plus its awesome. I have pretty much every thing I own overclocked lol. free power is epic

CM7 and xboarder56's are both based on AOSP 2.3.5, the latest android release. There's no need for them to be based off of the OTA build because they've been compiled from AOSP source (and been around before the OTA was even a thought). For this reason we've had things like CM7 2.3 ROMs since January on the G2. Nearly every ROM in the dev section will have custom kernels that allow overclocking, though (except the bone stock pre-rooted OTA Builds, they're pretty much stuck atm).

Find the radio thread in the dev section. I recommend flashing the radio intended for the T-mobile 2.3 OTA.
is that radio Vision_Radio_12.52. 60.25_26.08.04.30 ? Also, I flashed the bone stock pre rooted. My thing was I wanted to keep the stock look for now. Just to keep it simple, plus I like it. I will probably flash virtuous when they come out with a new update.

Yes thats the T-Mo US OTA radio.
ROMs like CM7 and other AOSP ones are very close to stock. The G2 ships (and OTAs) with an almost stock ROM, so anything built from AOSP will be very similar.
Something like CM7 will be much quicker and efficient with tons of extra improvements, but look very similar.
i bought cheap milestone 2 and wanted to try CM on it
rooted, installed CWM
tried to flash CM 7.2 RC3 and it fails after "checking kernel version..."
so i guess my 2.2.2 is too old
went back to wiki, tried to flash their downgrade rom VRZ_A955_2.3.20_1FF_01.sbf hoping that it will get me to the right spot
no joy here as it fails (running as admin etc.) with "Phone is not compatible with multi-interface super-file."
any suggestions what to do now, as this is where i start worrying that i might do\flash something stupid and brick it
Hello!
Sorry if I'm wrong but, wouldn't be needed do update to 2.3.6 first?
Yet, this could help:

It says that you can update from Froyo.
actually it was just me being dumb as i tried to install
update-cm-7.2.0-RC3-droid2-signed
instead of
update-cm-7.2.0-RC3-droid2we-signed
as WE in filename means that this is rom for global, gsm version (that i have)
it updated ok, but all i get now is motorola logo and then black screen, i can't even get CWM to start...
Hi, first you may know, there are two different phones Droid 2 and Milestone 2 (A953), maybe you are trying to flash wrong sbf to your phone.

yup, just figured it out, had to flash back to 2.2.2 with
MILS2_U6_2.4.24_SIGNED_UCAMILESTONE2B1B80E100E.0R_UCXMILE20RTGB_P040_A013_HWp2a_Service1FF.sbf
and is working now...
for some reason i thought that droid 2 global = milestone 2
what should i look for if im interested in most stable rom for milestone?
Indeed, be sure of the sbf version.
Try going back to stock and do it again, cleaning data, cache and dalvik before and after update.
*didn't see that it worked hehe
Most stable roms, IMO are MIUI 2.5.25 and CM7
Now i'm trying CM9 (20120602) and i'm enjoying, still checking. Seems like it's worth the try.
Still some issues to solve, like recording, etc... but looks like good for daily use.
People say that MIUI tends to give some compatibility issues sometimes. And Cm7 fails to run some apps... like ShadowGun (well, in my Miles it fails hehe).
I'm very happy with MIUI from Will5, check it. It has very good battery life, the rom is smooth and stable and very addictive =D. I got small amount of forbidden crashes. I'm trying other roms as well but always come back to MIUI until better rom comes out, if it happen sometime. It has froyo kernel and i dont have any strange touchscreen bug, but the touch responsive is a little less then newer kernel, thats no problem for me.
trying it now, installation hints states "Flash UPDATE_2.5.25.zip from cwm 4.x.x.x or greater"
how to get cwm 4x?
all i found is 2.something in cm wiki and 3.1 in bootmenu
anyway i installed it with 3.1.0.0 and it seems to be ok
I installed it as you without any problems, I think it can be flashed from recovery from droid2bootstrap. If you dont like MIUI you can try another ROMS maybe original 2.3.4 sbf, in developer section is manual to get out the blur (and bloat) from stock roms. I test it someday but Im happy with MIUI.

miui installed fine, it looks great, but after some basic configuration launcher start FC, as i dont have time to experiment just now i flashed latest CM7 i found (cm7-120221-1901-NIGHTLY-Milestone2.zip) and it is working perfectly, just as good as on my LG P990
Hello.
Im have a question for someone who has a rooted nexus s 4g.
I've been rooting since the motorola droid milestone so since then i rooted 3 android devices. (two year contract makes me suffer).
Anyway, i been waiting soo bad for ics and had my device rooted running unofficial ics roms so when it updated i flashed back to stock.
My phone sucks now so i want to root but i still want the basic ics theme so what would you recommend.
im thinking just root it and then flash a matrix kernal. or whatever kernal works best for most of you.
And.. when i root it does it install a custom rom or it just unlocks the one im using.
thanks in advance.
when you root the phone stays with it's current ROM,so no it will not flash a custom ROM for you,if the ics them is your only concern,there is many ROMs that keep this theme (check development section),and sure you can root and keep the stock ROM and flash any kernel you want.
Thanks for the help. Just what I was looking for. I'm going to reroot when I get out of work.
I'm going to do some more research because I love maths kid matrix but I might want to try air kernal. Maybe try slim ics.
