Blandroid on N1

I just noticed, blandroid rom on the rom manager menu, has anyone tried it on N1? I'm using cm7 Rc4 and I know you'll all say stick with it, but I'm still curious.

I noticed it a couple of weeks ago. It says it's a stable 2.3.3 with no bloatware. Sounds very intriguing...in fact so much so that I downloaded it, but have yet to flash it...lol.

Certainly tempting isn't it, is this a case of who goes first lmao, out of interest how big is it? I notice the cm7s are just over 80 mb.

Seems like a plain stock ROM, nice to see to be honest.

Noticed the same thing, but was wondering what all it supports, site doesn't say much. I.E. what kernel it has/supports, TB alert stuff like that.
Hopefully the dev comes and explains what all he's done.

Well, I flashed it, for like an hour then when back to cm7 using the recovery I made.
First thing, market didn't work.
Secondly it didn't have the extra apps cm7 has, which I expected, but I instantly missed theme chooser.
Thirdly it wiped my contacts list.

First. The market issue is probably a wipe issue as I had the same problem with two different MIUI GB ROMs.
Secondly. That would be the lack of bloatware mentioned above. It's like stock android, so not sure why you even flashed it if you wanted bloatware.
Thirdly. It didn't wipe your contact list you didn't sync with google, becaue all of your contacts are backed up there.

You know what, I knew that'd be the replies I got, to be honest I'm curious of any rom that 1might increase battery life, currently using 85% over 10hours!! And of course the dreaded wonk which is seemingly inherent with cm7.
I couldn't force Google to sync with my phone, all my contacts are stored with Google you're right there.
Btw how would I get the market back?

Blandroid 2.3.4p0 works pretty good. Just curious about this app hidden in the list written in Chinese ...

I think it is another keyboard app. When you go to change the keyboard, it lists something in all Asian symbols.
I just deleted it and I have not noticed any difference with how blandroid runs.

The wonk was almost fixed on latest release of cm7. If you don't have the latest version, try it.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA Premium App

Nearly fixed isn't fixed. The problem is really dragging out and these stock ROMs are showing that its fixed with them. Wonking isn't the only issue at the moment either. There is still problems with the sound levels after docking the phone sometimes where its maximum level is halved etc.
CM is an ace project and I truly respect the guys and their efforts behind it, but CM7 is very buggy, and when it starts to affect the ability to take calls its hard to use it.

Oh! Thx for the reply. I got scared and ran back to cm7

What sort of battery life do you get and is there good support from the Dev?
I could go for no wonk
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA Premium App

I like!
Went for this until the CM stable kills the wonk; now I may not go back. I haven't used it for long enough to know about stability. I think of it as pure AOSP, but already rooted (and a just a few essential CM goodies).

So far, I haven't found anything missing I need.
And if you want a bit more eye candy and customization, just install launcher pro or adw.launcher from the market.
I give it thumbs-up!

Oxygen 2.2.2

Yea I love this ROM but I guess its not compatible with Ripple Lock Screen yet or something.When I use it my screen takes like 6 seconds to unlock, really strange as this was not happening with 2.2.1.

Yup I did a fresh install. I have both the ripple lock and the agile lock (sense 3.0) and they both do the same. I found out that they ado work but to I have to use the volume to show unlock (weird) If I hit the power button nothing happens at all.

Been using it for about an hour now...so far so good. No problems and as fast and lite as I remember.
Gonna stick with it as my normal runner if no issues creep up.

CM7 froze in the middle of the night, then I missed my alarm, so I need to try something else.

To be honest with you I only tried CM7 for about an hour. I just didnt like the look and layout, plus it seems like it comes with so much more things installed (bloat to me). During that hour it did not feel any faster nor smoother than Oxygen. Been using Oxygen since 2.2.1 till now and I have NEVER got a reboot or freeze. Check it out man, you wont be dissapointed.

Good to know. .... I use oxy and one other rom , but lately oxy has been my daily driver due to the sheer speed. Battery life isn't as good but I have my phone oc'd to 1.3.

Have you tried running it at 800Mhz? This is my setting while i'm at work, then back to 1Ghz at home. I see no difference in speed IMO

The only things oxygen is missing that I really like is the 4g notification toggle, and incognito mode on the browser.

Great Rom, how do I get the battery icon you are showing on page 1?

Oh man! Sense 3.0?! I think I might just have to flash this on my phone. Lol
Edit: So flashed this Rom and looks great. Love the lock ring. But why can't I use the android keyboard? It force closes when I change it to that input. Also battery percentage? Not showing either? I did a clean flash. Wiped everything and install seemed to have gone through just fine.. anyone else had any issues? Thanks in advanced.

Thanks for the fix. What about the percentage for the battery? Is it not on this one? Or is there a setting that needs to be messed with?
Thanks again

OK, so I've been running this ROM since the day it came out and I completely love it. The theme is fantastic, the battery life is amazing, and it's pretty darn smooth. Even though it's tough to find fault with the build, I will offer up the few issues/requests I've experienced over the last week or so (prioritized).
1. I can't install different kernels. I've tried Ziggy and Imoseyon(sp?)'s latest, and each hangs after the HTC screen.
2. I get FC's on D7 Reader and Dolphin Browser. They're few and far between, so it's only a minor inconvinence. Plus, I have no way to confirm it's ROM related.
3. There's a slight overlap in the header of the Mail.apk (where it says All Messages). Obviously very minor.
4. I'd like to see a flashable zip to disable the volume rocker wake; I know most like it but I use Widgetlocker so it just wreaks havok in my pocket.
5. Would like battery percentage and removal of GPS icon.
6. Can we add some ability to modify the quick settings? I personally don't use Power Efficiency and would like Brightness Level and Flashlight integrated.
7. 7 in 1 and 4 in 1 Power and Reboot menus.
8. Every now and then Exchange has issues syncing. It repeats syncing over and over until I reboot. It's only happened a couple times, and may HTC's issue, not the ROM's.
Like I said, I love this ROM and can't see a reason to leave it (unless someone gets data working on ICS). The above list is just some personal desires. Notice that I haven't said anything is broken or sluggish or ugly. Again, this ROM is great and I'd recommend it to anyone. Thanks for all the great work fkfmfz, I'll be donating shortly...

Lg g2 help needed!

So i traded my gs4 for the lg g2. And i love it but i noticed that my battery life is very inconsistent. Sometimes its amazing, and other times it just drains like crazy without me using it at all. And my gps keeps turning on, i already read about the carrier iq, and i turn it off but that keeps on coming back on. And it still says my gps is on even though its not so on my battery usage android system is number one now wiht like 85%. This just started happening. So i was thinking of rooting to get rid of all these problems, would that solve these issues im having? Also i would like to know if i do root my phone is it possible for me to still keep my current lg skin that originally came with the phone? If rooted can knock on still work? can q slide still work? I love this phone a lot more than my gs4 but these problems are driving me crazy. Any advice and help is greatly appreciated. Also i have no previous experience in rooting. If someone could elaborate why rooting is necessary for this phone or not.

You can root and flash a custom rom based on the stock rom, which will help you keep all of LG's features, or you can flash a rom such as carbon rom and have 4.4.2 kitkat, which has amazing battery life!

You can use screen offs to get the same type of knock off with using Alex or nova launcher. That's only needed for aosp based Roms. Also they have a fiction for knock off on status bar on most aosp Roms.
If you stick with stock based Roms. Like madallus and others, knock off works just as it does stock because it uses the lg kernel.

Knock Off works aswell in most kitkat roms, but you have to double tap the status bar, you cant double tap anywhere to screen off.

It is great to see this device living on though people like yourself.

Thanks man, I really appreciate your early work on this device, which was a major factor in my purchasing it! Before I buy, I always check to see what work has been done, what brick recovery methods there are, is there a root method; that sort of thing. Knowing that all those development safeguards is really nice. :good:

Decided it was time to see if there was any new roms for my tablet and .. there's yours! Installing it now, I'll post any issues if i see them

I had a couple soft boots unlocking the device as well as trying to open a game. Didn't mess with the CPU or anything. Other than that quite a solid ROM with oodles of customization.

I installed a OC kernel bdadd34 made for his rom and this thing FLIES now. I think the stock kernel was only using 1 core but now all 4 are working. Haven't had a slow down since.

Wow, best news ever! Just yesterday I was thinking what a shame it is, that there's no BeanStalk for this tablet. Now I found this.
Glad to see you here Meticulus! After using all of your ROMs for the Galaxy Player 5.0, I will continue doing so on my Hisense as well

Don't have time to try this weekend, but as soon as I can I am going to give it a go. I have had Xbox's rom, and I am using dolorespark's Dopa build right now. But yours looks very interesting.
Thank you for your work!

Does this version allow the use of a OTG cable for external drives?

Tried this ROM and it has a lot of promise. I found it to be a little sluggish and other minor problems that were probably most my fault. Lock screen, I couldn't get to rotate and such. Went back to dopa v1.1 as it was smoother to me. Will try this ROM again and thanks for your time and hard work. When opening an app, it would sometimes take a couple of seconds to open. It was almost like locked up and a couple times I thought it was. Went back and wiped everything again in recovery and reinstalled but with the same results. Dopa v1.1 and Dopa v2.0 has worked best for me.

This build is working great for me. I've been using it for over a week & I have had no issues at all. My tablet performance has actually improved. Text input & copy & paste is tolerable now where as with the other Rom build I was using v4.3.1, had had me to my limit when typing. Thanks very much for this build. The graphics and esthetics are awesome too! Very clean & very nicely done. You can enable & disable lockout screen rotation in the settings as well. Take some time & really go through the options & you see the plethora of settings

From what @Meticulus posted on his site it looks like he's moving away from porting BeanStalk over to porting Carbon which honestly I am fine with. Totally awesome to see newer builds of Carbon coming to our Sero 7 Pro soon as I loved the ones done earlier by @Bdadd34 as well.
