[ROM][DEAD] Retro1 v2 - "Is it a Dream? No, it's a Freken Cupcake!"

This is no longer supported.
So, one day Kaos pointed out an old beta build, and this got me to looking around at old ROMs. I took a look at JF1.5. Vanilla Cupcake! It's a nice ROM, but was difficult to port. So, I said to myself... Tainted Cupcake! Here is the result.
Thanks to:
JesusFreke for, well, too much to list.
Kaos for the inspiration.
Hoban for the inspiration.
almost everyone in the IRC channel for teaching me something
dsixda for cranking out an awesome Kitchen, day after day
Anyone who has ever posted DETAILS to XDA about how to do things.
All devs for your time.
Both of you who want to go back to Android 1.5.
EDIT:I almost forgot Captainkrtek who did some early testing for me. (Did I get that in before he ban
The base ROM is a stock Eris 1.5 ROM that jcase put 'su' and 'superuser' in, but I won't thank him since he said not to.
What you get:
1) Android 1.5 base from HTC
2) su and Superuser (rooted)
3) deodexed
4) png optimization (most apks anyway)
5) zipaligned
6) most of Sense removed, much like the 'Tainted' ROMs
7) most remaining HTC apps have a Vanilla look and feel (at least the icons)
8) stability
9) responsive user interface
10) wireless and wired tethering (I haven't tested the wired yet though.)
11) bash and nano
12) 'Everything' should work.
What doesn't and never will work:
1) Marketplace apps that require Android 1.6+
2) any feature that requires Android 1.6+ (Live Wallpapers, for instance)
Other features this DOES NOT HAVE:
1) Cyanogen goodies
2) OC, UV, and other kernel tweaks
3) Apps2SD
4) any kind of Yogurt
TO-DO:
1) disable OTA updates - I renamed the ota cert file, but it still gets the update...
2) setup the initial home screen better - I've tried changing that in the Launcher.apk, but have yet to get it to work.
I highly recommend Connectbot for a terminal app, but v496 works best on this ROM.
Just so I'm clear, this is a really basic and clean ROM. There are not a lot of extra features. However, the battery life is really good because of this.
DO NOT install the Verizon OTA update. It will most likely unroot your phone. v2 won't ask anymore

http://surrette.org/roms/Retro1-v2.zip
What I did:
1) loaded up the base Eris 1.5 ROM in the Kitchen
2) looked at the Tainted Vanilla Kitchen to find the script used to remove Sense components
3) ripped that part of the script out and ran it to remove Sense
4) compiled AOSP Cupcake (using Android Builder) and copied several apps from there into ROM
5) tested and found AOSP MMS would FC, so I put HTC's back
6) tested and found that AOSP Cupcake's Email app does not have Exchange support, so put HTC's back in.
7) opened up several apks with APK Manager and replaced HTC's icons with icons from Vanilla apps
8) opened up Launcher and attempted to change res/xml/default_workspace.xml, but testing afterward always failed
9) also grabbed a handful of open source binaries from here and there, but really haven't used them much yet
10) zipped, signed, and uploaded the ROM
11) NOTE: While this is version 1, it's probably the 30th or more build that I have actually built and tested. Fun times.
12) v2 - removed Systemupdater.apk (thanks tenzomonk!) and a couple of things left over from testing (CorpCal & Vanilla Contacts)
13) v2 - added several tweaks from the forum and KaosFroyo's *.rc files (vm.dalvik.heap=32m and some possibly power saving tweaks)
I have been running some variation of this for most of the last two weeks, except for one day that I tried a Froyo ROM. While I am admittedly easy to please, I have had no issues that haven't been worked out by now.

Why not? I'm DLing now. Gonna try tonight.

Its about darn time you cooked us a rom lol

Ha! Funny. Such an obscurely named app. How could I have known?
It's there. I'll try that now. I have a couple of other minor changes anyway, so I'll do them all at once.

I just flashed this a while ago and so far i like this rom but i couldn't place a call, sync with google, there's no gallery, and none of my music would show up. I also just caught that there's no calendar app right before i was about to post this. Other than those problems, everything seems fast and smooth.
Update: just reflashed and phone is now working, music showing up, and google synced all my contacts.

I'm glad it started working for you. As I said in the OP, I've had no issues. (Of course, I'm just one tester.) You are going to miss some things that you would have with a newer version of Android, but it should just work. And the battery life is really good.

Congrats on the release!

I've started grabbing the logcat while it boots to work out any possible issues. It's crazy stable already though. And I haven't put it on the charger since yesterday morning and still have %60+. That's by far the best battery life this thing has had in a long while.

Don't you miss the extra features of 2.0+ though? The amazing battery life you described sounds great but I feel like rolling back from 2.2 to 1.5 would be tough to deal with lol.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I change ROMs at least every couple of weeks though. So, I'll have those features again soon enough. This is just another fun learning experience for me and a chance to put something out there that is different than any thing else. I like to be different. And shake things up a little. That's just how I roll. Wait until I really understand what I'm doing!
There might actually be a handful of people who really like this ROM and use it daily. Although I'm sure that it won't get the user base of some of the others, but so what...
<JOKE>
Maybe next I'll make a ROM that just has the phone/dialer app with all of this bluetooth, wifi, gps, market, data connection crap disabled. That would be awesome. I'll call it 'Startac'. </JOKE>

Data Throttling Governor Removal

Ok, just for S's & G's ... I decided to try the data throttling removal zip Myn provided with RLS5. Now in my area I've had speeds as high as 8mb DL, but generally hover around 1.5mb. Not really what I expect from "blazing fast 4G" lol.
So I ran about 30 speed tests before I installed the removal zip. They all looked very similar to this. (No links = FAIL)
1.75mb DL & 0.45mb UL
I installed the zip file and ran another 30 or so tests. They all looked very similar to this. (FAIL again!)
3.45mb DL & 0.90mb UL
I did this between the hours of 8pm and 9pm, why service really starts to get laggy. It still can't eat a Twinkie faster than a fat girl... but I'll take what I can get.
Anyone else using this??

Where did you get this? Can you post it for download? Will it only work on his roms?

AFAIK, it'll only work on RLS5, but if the services.jar is unchanged between Sense ROMs, then it should work on others. Just take a Nandroid and try it yourself.

Sorry to say this has been proven to do nothing on Sprint.

[ROM] HTC Eris March 2011 OTA Stock ROM - v2.41.605.6

Here is a flashable version of the full HTC Eris stock ROM - v 2.41.605.6.
March2011_OTA_ReferenceROM_v1.zip ( 99,606,802 Bytes; MD5: 770786915545a16f564a42e344ce7bb6 )
( 02/15/2012 - Re-hosted download link - thanks to XDA user doogald for providing a home for this ROM )
This is what you would get if you took the HTC 2.1 Leak-V3 PB00IMG.zip (same thing as the "Official 2.1 RUU") ROM, and then upgraded it twice - first with the July 2010 OTA, and then after that with the March 2011 OTA. (Using this ROM flash basically saves you that trouble.)
The ROM itself is completely stock, but unlike the "Flashback21" series of ROMs, this flash does not restore a stock recovery, nor flash any radio firmware - you can use it just like any other ROM.
(It is not meant to used for preparing a phone for resale or return - use the FlashBack21 ROM for that).
AGAIN, please note that this ROM is completely stock - it is not even rooted.
Feel free to use it as the basis for other 2.1 Sense ROMs.
If you want to have a "pure HTC stock ROM", but with the benefits of overclocking and rooting, I suggest you flash the "engtools3.zip" and Conap's "CFSv9" kernel immediately after flashing this. This would get you "stock+root+overclocking" - kind of like the original "PlainJane" ROM, but patched up to the current (3/2011) HTC software release.
One other note. Out of curiosity, I decided to run some benchmarks on a GB ROM vs. this HTC ROM, but using the same kernel (CFSv9), and clocked at a fixed rate (setCPU min = max = 748Mhz). So, I performed the kernel replacement and then ran a couple benchmarks.
This allows a crude comparison of what the improvements in the underlying dalvik engine have been between the Eclair release and the Gingerbread release - it is sort of "apples to apples" because the same kernel, scheduler, applications, and clock rates are used.
The numbers here are not the absolute benchmark values, but rather their RATIO - GB:Eclair. (In the cases where the benchmark value is "lower = better", or elapsed time, the value is inverted so that in all cases, a number greater than 1.0 indicates an improvement in Gingerbread). I used JIT = on, and compcache off for the GB ROM.
Code:
Ratio Benchmark
1.57 Quadrant Full
1.16 Elapsed Time (wall clock time) for Quadrant Full
1.10 setCPU "Long Bench"
0.96 setCPU "Native Bench" **
-.-- Linpack for Android - Skipped (not meaningful - too sensitive to JIT)
** This one should be very close to 1.0, as native code does not depend on the dalvik app engine.
In "real world" terms, Quadrant's raw score probably is not too meaningful - but notice that in elapsed time for the full benchmark, the GB ROM was consistently about 16% faster to completion. That measurement - wall clock time - is a "real world" metric. So, in addition to all the other goodness of Froyo/GB, you do seem to get a decent improvement - 10 to 15% - by switching to GB.
cheers,

I think that the superlatives being tossed around here are causing the eyes of the real devs in this forum to roll backwards in their heads. I hope not!
There's not much skill in putting a stock ROM together - just a bunch of checking to make sure you've got all the symlinks, file modes, and permissions set up correctly. Then, zip it up and sign it!
( I did load it onto my phone and check everything to make sure nothing had gone horrible wrong; I suppose that counts for something - but that's not mad skilz, either. )

Looks like it is mostly bug fixes with some enhancements in the Exchange client, MMS capabilities, and several other things.
Here is what Verizon had to say about it.
I did a "file differences analysis" (see this XDA post) that showed that 101 (out of ~127) different pre-installed apps had (.apk) changes, and 20 different framework libraries (.jar) showed changes too. Whether they were major or minor, I don't really know - just that it was apparent that a lot of stuff got "touched". The "system" image in both releases have a little north of 810 files in them - about 260 of those got changed.
I only had the ROM running for a short period of time (to do testing); the one thing that I noticed is that on my home WiFi (uses WPA), the association process was instantaneous - that was sort of rare for me in the past.

Was the radio changed at all in this update?

I never had problem with WiFi and stock, but I do for sure with CM ROMs running CFS when I turn on WiFi from a widget. However, just to test, I flashed CFS v9 over this last night, turned off WiFi for a while, then turned it back on from the widget, and it also associated right away for me.

I have themed this ROM and am about 80% done with it. Thanks for this runs really well on the stock kernal. I am just wondering how popular 2.1 is now with Froyo and GB out. If there was a base of people that like sense eclair I would consider releasing it once it was finished.

I would love a theme with a blue battery and themed dialer! Would it be similar to the "Sensibility for Sense 2.2" theme you were working on?

No offense to anyone, but I would likely only even try the March OTA in the form of an updated ROM from zach.xtr, or if I modified it myself.
Nothing against you, it's just that whenever I want to go back to near stock, xtr's ROMs are just too well established for me to experiment with anything else.

I pulled that apk apart right after the ota to determine what it was and if it was safe to remove for my own senseless rom. I believe you are correct in the features of what it is there for. I did notice some xmls, and smali that referred to logging, and writing "user logs" to sd. At first Ithought it was a ciq replacement, so I pulled it when I cooked that first rom. I did not experience any ill effects. Although tbh I only ran the rom for about a day, missed Tommy's extended quick settings. There was also a welcomed lack of any ciq, in lib or bin, very good sign.
Anyways, I'm still in the debug process with my rom, but I will report back after I have more uptime w/o Smith.

I know removing it affects certain apps and doesn't affect others you may or may not bump into an issue depending on what you're running I found out about it when I was stripping a rom and saw the service running and it piqued my curiosity this was on synergy when I discovered ciq and began the battle with removing it and HTCloggers that was a fun experience I soft bricked my phone about 100x trying to get rid of that crap, this was before treve had released any info on it so I was going at it blindly
Edit: I forgot to add the service SmithMicroDM is a download manager for firmware updates I believe it controls OTAs prls and profile updates as well as a few other apps

If it controls OTAs I'm definitely leaving it out. Lol
It could be that I removed any apps it was joined to. I was down to 115MB zipped last time I cooked. I will say this, 4.67 makes for one hellaciously fast stripped down rom. Couple edits to init.rc in the boot.img, and it feels like an aosp rom.

You will know when it causes an error it will say something like process com.smithmirco.xxx force closed the xxx being replaced with a specific process such as DM or service and then the app will crash I had issues with things locking up and requiring a battery pull HTCLoggers.apk was the worst as soon as I tried to freeze or delete it in tibu the damn thing would FC every 1/10th of a second making it impossible to restore with out flashing a backup or reflashing the rom over itself to replace the logger I finally found it embedded in several system files like frameworks-res.apk and systemui.apk which required removal from the code itself I never could get it removed without some sort of error before TrevE released his removal info, I was about ready to pull my hair out after about 60 hrs of deleting code and having to restore backup after backup when I couldn't boot or it would boot and immediately go ape**** force closing or locking up I ended up giving up and switching to a rom without ciq the first few I tried had serious wakelock issues from improper removal then the classic came out and it was ciq and wakelock free. I was able to tell how invasive ciq and htcloggers was when I found it I dumped a few logs and found IQ hits popping up attached to almost everything data or input related it was in SMS, keyboard, call history, dialer etc pretty scary especially since I had no idea what exactly it was logging or what it was doing with those logs, TrevE was lightyears ahead of me in tracking down that info, however I would personally classify ciq and loggers as malware/spyware glad sprint listened and got rid of it unlike big red who just flat out lied and said they didn't use it, which they didn't they used the same idea different name and figured no one would notice *rolls eyes*

No need to be sorry!
My opinion is that if there is already a rom, there is no need to port another one.
Granted that this is a new version, but a better approach would be to join with Vibranturk (Or anyone for that matter) and then update the same thread rather than creating duplicate thread, and then add your name to the credits too, so you get what you deserve.
The idea is to keep the Dev threads clean and not clog it with many different versions of the same rom.
Cheers.

Nobody is telling anyone to download this. No one's forcing anyone to look at the post. I personally cannot come up with a reason why anyone would have a problem with selection, even if there is very little difference between some of the versions or builds.(kinda funny...irritating but useful??) I understand keeping forums clean, but lets be real here. They have rarely been clogged up. Have they at all?? If they have since the captivate has dropped, admins(miss you zel) have always had the ability to communicate and keep it clean by removing dupes etc etc...
He has every right to develop and post his version, port, tweak or whatever it may be, team or not. And remember, not everyone is comfortable working with other people......people who might not feel comfortable working with others as well or with certain individuals. You never know. It is a development forum loaded with all sorts of personalities, gotta have some perspective...

I understand keeping forums clean, but lets be real here. They have rarely been clogged up. Have they at all?? If they have since the captivate has dropped, admins(miss you zel) have always had the ability to communicate and keep it clean by removing dupes etc etc...
He has every right to develop and post his version, port, tweak or whatever it may be, team or not. And remember, not everyone is comfortable working with other people......people who might not feel comfortable working with others as well or with certain individuals. You never know. It is a development forum loaded with all sorts of personalities, gotta have some perspective...

This is the exact same reason my earlier post started with "My Opinion Is''.
I don't want to stop him or anyone for doing anything. Open source encourages people to copy, distribute etc. Just stating my opinion that's all.
Another reason for this opinion of mine is, if you may have checked the posts in the last few days, people were complaining and fighting about who ported the rom first and asking the other person to take down his/her thread. Just don't want that to happen all over again.

My SMS isn't working. Tried reflashing and it's still a no go. Any suggestions?

You have to set the center SMS phone number --> SMS/SettingAdvanced Settings/SMS centre number

I'm testing it it very good! but a very important thing to me doesn't work... Is the 2G only data conection mode.
Although the toggle works properly the data connection is always in 3G mode (I have test it doing speed tests)
If you could repair this your rom will be perfect
Good job!

It's saying that its timing out when trying to find SMS center number. I also just realized I don't get data outside of wifi zones.
