KMApp - Kernel Manager App V 2.0 - Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps

Hi everyone,
this thread is to let you know about the development of KMApp.
What is it?
It's an app that lets you manage some kernel settings without the need to use adb or manually create files. Everything is made with GUI!
Who can use it?
Users with custom kernel. It should work every custom kernel that supports init.d.
For File System Conversion the kernel is required to support fs.convert method.
What can it do for me?
File system conversion: choose between rfs, ext2, ext3, ext4, jfs type for every partition you have
Enable/Disable Swap script
Enable/Disable App2Sd script. It uses int2sd+ by croniccorey found here
Set Compcache behaviour
Does it support different languages?
Yes, it can. If you want to provide translation please download this file from github sources.
Can i contribute in some way?
Yes you can.
Firstly, I'm looking for testers.
Secondly, if you have graphic skills you can improve icons or completely redo them if you prefer.
This app has been tested a bit but i'm not going to give you any assurance it will work or it won't cause troubles. I strongly suggest you to have a full backup of apps, system partition and data before messing with it.
If you are ready to take the risk, download the file at the bottom of the post and install it the way you like.
If you find a bug please report it here, I'll try my best to fix.
TO ROM DEVS​You are free to include this app into your rom but please warn your users to read this post to find useful information about bugs and updates.
Even if a "Thanks" hit is free i really don't care to be credited. Just link here as i cannot answer to PMs from users that didn't even read this post.
CHANGELOG​
V2.0 - Not released yet [Testing it, will release as soon as possible]
Completely reworked the code.
Major UI improvements.
Info section
FS Conversion
Int2SD
Swap
Compcache
Less features now supported but it is MUCH easier to port the app to different devices. So if you want to get the app you can download the app and try it. Or you can simply donate to me so that i can buy your phone! (joking)
V1.4.1
fixed BLN enable/disable FC. I do not have a GT-I5800 so i cannot test if bln behaves correctly but the needed files now are copied as they should. Also, disabling it will restore your previous lights file.
options that cannot be set are now hidden. They become visible only once you can actually use them.
fixed some potential bugs. Now it's stronger then ever.
V1.4
Added support for configurable Compcache. Now you can specify the dimension. Of course this will work only if you are on G3mod kernel 2.2 +
Added support for BLN enabling/disabling
V1.3
Added support to move only user app's related dalvik-cache to sd with hybrid data2sd. This way your permormance should improve
Completely changed the way data2sd.dirs is created. Now it's faster (i mean, much faster) and you must not wait ages to un/check directories
Added translation - pt
Added file system conversion to jfs
Fixed some potential bugs
Finally fixed the bug that prevented to see checked directories in hybrid data2sd after a reboot... It was the most stupid bug i ever did, sorry!
V1.2
Added support for MultiOSData
Added support to compress data backups made with MultiOSData (will be available with G3Mod kernel v2.1 - not released yet)
Fixed bugs with fs detection - Now this should be error safe and way more solid
Fixed bug that prevented correct detection of dirs in hybrid data2sd
Added transaltions - en / it / pl / nl / de / hr
Better options detection and handling
Performance boost for hybrid data2sd settings - I hope this won't break it!
Fixed lot of typos
Other less important bug fixes
V1.1
GUI improvements
App2Sd now working
Data2Sd standard / hybrid now working
FS conversion should now support also jfs for fugumod (can't test it myself)
Improved settings reading at app starting
Other less important bug fixes
V1.0
Busybox and Root checks
File system conversion: rfs, ext2/3/4
Enable/Disable Swap script
Enable/Disable App2Sd script (V1, V2 and V3)
Enable/Disable Data2Sd
Enable/Disable Hybrid Data2Sd script (only with G3Mod kernel)
Set the Dynamic Overclock value (100-1400 MHz)

Why apply both data2sd and hybrid data2sd?
@andreapier, EXCELLENT! APP. Do i have the permition to include it in my v8.1? D I like very much the GUI, dont change it
PS: There is a tiny typo bug in Enable Data2sd "info". (This option... enabling!) It says abckup instead of backup.

Of course you have my permission, just ask users to read the first post of this thread so that they know this is still not stable.

Yea it seems a bit unstable I toggled some options and now my data and apps are gone ^^ I will try to figure out whats gone wrong.

@andreapier I think it was miscommunication
I told no for cf-root just because it has nothing to togglt by an app
Currently working on some other project, but I'll restart working on simplicity soon
Then you can add support

i thing there is a bug in app, when i apply for compcache is also apply itself for data2sd standerd and thus my apps and setting gone, then i deteted data2sd from g3 mod folder and reboot then i get back my oldet settings and apps.

Mind if I use this in Kyorarom?

Year cool app, very good UI, but please remove the root part, some users including me cant trust you that you arent use the root permissions for something else. Or is there any log function for root apps, so that we can read the commands?

At least half of the functionality of this app NEED root.
If you do not trust the app, simply don't use it and set your phone by manually creating / editing configuration file.
I will not make a version without root as it make no sense to me, sorry

To everyone:
I'm currently working together with hillbeast to correct a dangerous bug that is factory resetting your phone. It has something to do with data2sd but please do not use the app unless for testing purposes.
Thank you

It says to install busybox when I have it.

Hang on, you have a problem installing a 50KB app because it may do something fishy, but you're fine with custom kernels where I can (and yes I know how to do this) overvolt your CPU to dangerous levels and send all your data to me while its booting? Look don't worry, the XDA isn't out to get you. Andreapier is good.

Okay I've already installed this and I doesn't knew that it's need root for something else, so im nothing a problem with that.

Did you try to install it like the app suggests?
This is a feature offered by a third party lib i used (RootTools, it's very good).
RootTools make easy to check if a phone is rooted and lots of other things, so i would like not to get rid of it. However, i can try disabling busybox checking if it doesn't work (it does for most users however). Still, i think you'll get problems when checking for root too.
Please try to install busybo from market and try again.
PS: what version of busybox are you using?

Version 1.1 released.
Some bugs have been solved but hybrid data2sd is still not working fine... I cannot figure out why as everything in the app do what it is supposed to do. Will see tomorrow again!
For changelog please look at first post.
If you feel like brave, test this and report issues as soon as you can, thanks.

It seems better but in hybrid data2sd settings, it shows only dalvik-cache ticked (and not app + log too). Good work anyway!

Benchmarks
Here are some benchmark results:
Benchmarks are NOT after a fresh install and are NOT necessarily after a reset ... so may not be as fast as if they were
Green = better than previous ROM base
Red = worse than previous ROM base
ROM 1.1 -> - Base 2.26.1530.3 Videotron:
AnTutu Benchmark: 3668

Note:some tests are capped at 60fps as this is the refresh rate of the Flyer -
Hence why I did not bother with NeoCore etc as it always hits the cap!
All tests are done in sets of 3, with the best result recorded

Procedure
If you have not already done so you will need to s-off your device.
To do this follow the instructions at http://revolutionary.io
When doing this be sure to Install Clockwork recovery when prompted
To open clockwork you just need to turn on your device (from a cold start by disabling fastboot first), then turn it on again with the volume down button held. If done correctly you should get the bootloader from which you can enter Clockwork by selecting recovery.
The procedure for flashing should be:
Put the update zip file on your SD Card (not the internal storage) by connecting your Flyer to your computer
Backup existing ROM through Clockwork in case something goes terribly wrong!(or other backup tool)
Wipe Data/Factory reset (not always required but HIGHLY recommended) if flashing from another ROM (not i00 ROM) - if there are steps required for an update (from one version of i00 ROM to another) I will post the details in the Version Info
Flash new ROM through Clockwork (through install zip from SD card)

Common Questions
OK thought I'd put together a list of common questions that people have with this ROM to stop me answering the same questions again and again.
Q: What else is included in the ROM
A: Besides the Base apps from HTC and Google ... not alot - Superuser (for other changes see the change log above)
Q: I flashed and now my system apps keep force closing
A: Did you wipe data/factory reset?
Issues
Phone doesn't display properly when initially opening in landscape
Speed dial option under phone force closes
Next Version
In no particular order...
1.2?
Already Implemented
Fixed talk embarrassed icon
Added entries to APN List
Updated Maps to 5.9.0
Updated YouTube to 2.2.16
Hopefully...
Add other lock screen wallpapers to ROM
Add Advanced Power Menu
CRT animation
Keyboard animations
Already can add Chainfire3D drivers (without the APK) to ROM but need to get Tegra plugin working with it w/o having Chainfire app installed
Got anything you want to see in the next update? - let me know
Post the eact version of the FLYER, WIFI/WIFI+3G etc for the ROM. You don't want to be blamed for someone doing something stupid.
congrats on getting out the first custom rom. I'm actually working my way through HTC Android Kitchen on the view. Do you know if there is anyway to create a rom that will service both the view, flyer3g and the wifi flyer?

Since the spec of the devices almost the same, I believe the ROM can meet all of them, maybe the kernel/radio will be different.

That's kind of what I was thinking. Once we all get our custom roms out and compile our own kernels from scratch, it might be fun to do a one rom to rule them all like synergy over on the evo 4g. Waiting on my ubuntu install to finish updating right now before I start working on a view 4g rom

No .. and this is because I don't think it's broken...
The whole point of the device fingerprint is so that it can be identified for compatibility... Google has a master list of keys that correspond with device specs - such as resolution etc...
When someone posts an application on the market they can specify if they only want it for certain devices / resolutions etc and the market will only return the applications specified that meet the criteria of the device.
Identifying the Flyer as another device (imo) is not a fix, and as stated, I don't believe this is even an issue, it is up to the app dev's to know what their software works on and make their market posts accordingly.

[SCRIPTS] Speedy v7 [UPDATED 11/24/2011]

}
Update: I am now encouraging modifications. I strongly encourage anyone and everyone to play around with these scripts and modify them. If you modify it for a different device, awesome! Post it for everyone, please. If you find something interesting and you improve something, please post it. We should all be able to benefit from each others work.
I have created these scripts to help speed up the Droid x2 in all areas and to help conserve battery life. Not going to include a huge description this time. If you want to read the entire description behind these scripts visit my original thread for v1.
Installation
Depending on your comfort level, you may either unzip and move the scripts to init.d, or you may flash the zip file.
Speedy confirmed working on: Droid X2 all roms, Droid 3 all roms. Report if you have any problems. Please flash the universal if you are NOT coming from either of these two phones.
After installation, you should reboot at least twice, then check in /data for a ".ItWorks" file. If this file does not exist, check to make sure your file manager is showing hidden files (ES File Explorer has this issue!), also double-check to make sure you have the latest busybox installed, you could also try running Fix Permissions in ROM Manager.
If your system appears slow, you may need to boot back into recovery and wipe dalvik, and cache partition.
Any feedback you can provide will definitely help future development.
Disputes
See something you feel you should be credited for? PM me and we'll talk. Replies to this thread that are hateful, argumentative, or just plain trolling, will in fact be deleted. Yes this is my own work, except where I have given credit.
*** Download ***
See post #2.
Press THANKS!
UPDATE (11/24/11)
Version 7! Said to be the best version of all! It's smooth! It's fast! It's awesome! 18+ hours battery life!
COMPATIBILITY: v7 has two versions. One is for the Droid X2 and Droid 3 specifically--and might work on the Atri and other blur phones. The other is UNIVERSAL, meaning it works with all devices as far as I'm aware.
If you have any problems let me know. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated!
Note: Don't be alarmed by size difference of universal zip. It does not include the busybox binary which is an additional 1mb.
Changelog
Code:
[i] [/i]
v7
▪ DISABLES & REMOVED Android's/Motorola's useless User Tracking, Behavioral Analysis, and Statistics Reporting (Should save battery!)
▪ DISABLES Location Cache and Tracking (useless Android feature)
▪ DISABLES New & Gentle Kernel Sleepers--improving snapiness and responsiveness of system and reducing wakelocks
▪ Mounts partitions as data=writeback, causing the system to only write data when it needs to, which saves battery
▪ Optimized dirty page and dirty cache to only use 50% of inactive/unused memory
▪ Changed IO Scheduler to Completely Fair Scheduler (default)--works better for dual-core devices
▪ REMOVED Zepplinrox 3G Turbo Charge, ZipAlign, and Dalvik Cleaner (faster startup)
▪ Improved install script and how it functions
▪ Changed filesystem cache pressure to 40 to make things a bit snappier
-------------------------------------------------
--ALL PREVIOUS VERSIONS HAVE BEEN ARCHIVED--
-------------------------------------------------
v6
▪ REMOVED setRenice--Really didn't work really at all, guess it's a kernel thing
▪ Included Zepplinrox 3G Turbo Charge
▪ Optimized journaling commit times for /data and /cache [I]Thanks to pikachu01![/I]
▪ System will now not respond to icmp packets (pings) [I]Thanks to pikachu01![/I]
▪ Changed cache pressure back to 100 to help with slowness on some phones
▪ Added some 3G/wifi booster settings that I found back when I had the OG Droid
▪ Added prop settings for dalvik
▪ Included sqlite3 bin for db optimization (added in version 3, but did not include sqlite3 bin)
v5
▪ Modified TCP keep alive time from 30 seconds to 2.6 minutes. (Will help battery and reduce network congestion.)
▪ Reduced page expire to 1 second, seemed that pages were being kept in memory waaayyyyy too long.
▪ Changed memory manager to prefer to keep data in memory rather than purge it for no reason (suggested by Zeppelinrox).
▪ Removed a bunch of crap scripts (not mine) from /system/bin, which helps startup time! :)
v4
▪ Fixed performance problem that plagued v3 for some phones
▪ Further increased battery life
▪ Made a cheese cake and ate it (It was delicious!)
v3
▪ [strike]Fixed flaw in how renice works. Now applications with a set value will always have that "nice" value.[/strike]
▪ Added a smart delvik cache cleaner that runs on boot
▪ Added SQL database cleanup function to 01tweaks. (Decreases db file size and increases performance. Which helps boot times, memory usage, and IO performance.)
▪ Removed unneeded logging
▪ Optimized more values
▪ Removed deepSleeper
v2
▪ Cleaned up scripts, and made some modifications, including a few to further improve battery.
▪ Added prioritizing using "renice."
(Edit: Half works, lol)
v1
▪ Initial Release
THANKS!
Shout out to Motorola for the Droid x2, and our ROM, and to Google for making Android completely free and open-source.
I'd also like to thank the Sony Android Dev team for giving me a few pointers. Also thanks to Naven, his init.d hack/discovery is included, saving a few steps for everyone. Thanks to pikachu01 for his research and some awesome stuff I found in his threads! Thanks to everyone who has provided feedback and suggestions!
Months have went into these scripts. Let me know how well they work for you! Any and all feedback, good or bad, is very appreciated.
Glad to see your continued efforts, thank you!
Im doing a complete wipe tonight and going to Eclipse 0.5 so I'll try these out as part of that update.
Do you happen to know if the method of rebooting the phone to fix the battery life issue is really necessary if we have your scripts in place?
Ignore this
This is great! Mike, thanks!!! Glad to see your further development/tweaking of these scripts.
EDIT: Installed over v1 on Eclipse 0.5, had to download and flash your init.d re-hack, installed v2 and we're off to the races!
Busy Box 1.19 good to go for use with these scripts?

I have installed RoadRunner and I am sad to report that now doubleTwist skips more than before with Speedy. :/
EDIT: I made sure the scripts were still running by deleting the zipalign log in /data/ and rebooting, and it reappeared.

Bummer. I've just flashed Eclipse v0.5 and flashed the new speedy scripts. I'm recalibrating my battery now. I'll test for skips with PowerAmp Pro tomorrow and report back. Thanks 0vermind!
Thanks will deff. check this out later today. Deff. need that guide for making our own priority list since I use none of those.
I do notice I still get audio skips. I DO use Stock Music with Equalizer with its new version and it still skips.
As for NitWit, I think we still need too. I'm pretty sure that would of been a big feature if that was in this script. Hopefully someone can fix that crap.

Yes. The flashable zip cleans everything up first.

The phone is running superbly! Everything is extremely quick and lag free. However, the audio issues still remain. I would be comfortable saying the skipping isn't quite as bad, but it's still aggravating. I'm using PowerAmp Pro.

I'm sorry to hear that. I'll definitely be doing some more investigation. That's probably my main goal right now is to get rid of audio skipping and lag.

[ROM] zerorom v0.4 (GSM/CDMA, CWM Install)

Hi everyone... here's my first crack at a custom ROM for the Xperia Play. And this is very beta. Once things get more solid, I'll make this first post a lot more proper. As it stands, this is for people who aren't worried about being on the edge.

Features:
Based upon official firmware R800i 4.0.A.2.368 UK
Supports GSM and CDMA Xperia Play models with a single build (testing needed)
SE Home launcher removed in favor of Launcher Pro.
DooMKernel v3 + Dalvik2Cache Hack
All DooMKernel features supported
Overclocking and Undervolting capable
AdamTT's X-Blue Theme + Reboot power menu
Blue Honeycomb bootanimation
Large APN list taken from latest version in Cyanogenmod
Bravia Display Engine v1
Ad blocking hosts file, combined from MVPS and yoyo
Swapped out official SE Camera for Camera Mod 7
All apks properly Zipaligned, auto zipalign all apks on boot
All apks PNG optimized
SQLite Vacuum at boot
Camera sounds except focus sound muted. Can set silent mode on phone for completely silent camera.
Switched main shell to bash from sh.
Added busybox.
Nano editor for use in terminal emulator, cannot be used by adb... yet.
New Android Market
New Google Maps hacked for global world-wide navigation
New Google Talk with front-facing camera support
Disabled annoying auto-brightness
Disabled annoying USB debugging notification when connected via USB with debugging turned on
CIFS/TUN kernel modules (untested)
Tons of SE default apps removed, including Whatsapp, Music Unlimited, Adobe Flash Player (market is far more up-to-date) and so much more.
Facebook deep integration removed, use FrAsErTaG's Facebook patch if you want it back - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1140540
SuperCharger memory management and loopy smoothness tweaks
/data partition has lots of space free.
Data, SMS, MMS, Wifi, Home button, back button, Google Voice Navigation all working.
Installation instructions:
I've been trying to get a proper flashable update.zip which would include the DoomKernel, however I have been getting bootloops, so for now, installing consists of restoring a Nandroid backup. This, of course, requires a kernel with CWM recovery, so you must already have DoomKernel installed at the moment.
These instructions will get much more properly fleshed out later on.
Quick and dirty steps:
1) Enter Recovery menu with preflashed DoomKernel.
2) Wipe all userdata
3) Wipe all caches
4) Wipe Dalvik Cache
5) Install the zerorom zip from your SD card.
At this point, reboot and you should be booting into the ROM. There's a good chance you'll see the boot logo two or three times before it boots properly. This is normal and no reason to be alarmed. This is basically the dalvik2cache and zipalign scripts running.
CDMA Users:
Install with the same build as below. Follow the same instructions. As long as you have not wiped /system when you attempt to install zerorom, it will detect that you are running on CDMA. It checks this by going by what your /system/build.prop says. If that file does not exist, installation could fail.
Installation failure when /system is wiped before install:
If you are missing /system/build.prop, you could write the following into a text file: "ro.product.device = R800x" for CDMA users or "ro.product.device = R800i" for GSM users. Then push this file to /system/build.prop. Then restart installation and you should be good.
Download:
V0.4 - http://www.multiupload.com/HUAY7FTIS7 - CDMA is in testing phase only!
V0.3 - http://www.multiupload.com/J3F7MPHJQZ
V0.2 - http://www.multiupload.com/3W86RKRKOM
V0.1 - http://www.multiupload.com/6H8EE0FMKY

Don't go that way: in Sony's Xperia line for this year, kernels are not flasheable through recovery, because the recovery must be contained in the kernel. Thus, kernels must be flashed with fastboot, separate from the rest.

I have most of the features though xD

If that helps you some, in my old system image GP2Xperia I made Facebook in its wholeness disappear from the phone. It's just a couple of apk's, nothing to be worried about. However, you may want to prepare a Facebook-adding update.zip just in case.

I removed it completely as a test (along with SE Syncing tools and their custom FB stuff) and found that simply installing FB from the market brings back most of what you'd get anyways, so it'll be removed from the next version. Liveware Manager will also be removed since it can just be installed from the market.

i said thank you (though not in those 2 words), gave the dev a thumbs up, and am currently running the rom to test it out and feed back to the dev any issues (if any) there may be in this package. i was just merely pointing out that in my eyes, fb is bloat and (to me) not as clean as i'd hoped.
so far it is a good rom, funcional, and a very good start for the devs first play attempt in a very limited custom rom world (for the play, at the moment), and i greatly look forward to future releases
v0.2 is in the middle of uploading. Sorry, no update.zip to update to the new version yet. I'll start creating those soon.
SE Sync, SE Facebook, Facebook, LiveWare all removed. Added rom name/version to build.prop.
EDIT: Done uploading, link: http://www.multiupload.com/3W86RKRKOM
My facebook patch will work fine

Well with a locked boot loader any "custom" ROM are all going to be about the same. Since we cant overclock, or upgrade past 2.3.3 yet. They are all just tweaked a little differently, like my ROM in comparison to COLA, has only a few minor differences... IT-ROM has the camera mod built in, has toggles built in to the theme, carrier name removed, and a few other cosmetic changes.... the next update will have tweaks built into the build.prop, adds a green dialer theme, and replaces font with stock font. This is my first attempt at playing with roms. It was more of a learning tool for me to get the basics down for removing system app, replacing system app, and what not.

Hey thats awesome info! I was wanting to do something like that but wasnt sure how to make a update.zip, and really didnt want peope to have to reflash the entire ROM again, i know how frustrating it is to have to re-do all your desktops, and widgets, and re-enter al your accounts and sync info.
Would you mind PM'ing me, or post it here, on how to make the symlinks, i am 100% unfamiliar with doing that. (im still learning all of this) Even if it doesnt work with the COLA based ROM, i'd stil like to learn this for future projects, and well, just cause its something I dont know how to do, and I ike to learn.

I know a little bit too, don't worry. You need to keep the Setup Wizard APK which, if absent, breaks the Home button in case of a data wipe. Plus, even if you put a /data folder, it can be empty.
XIT, I think the best that you can do for the symlinks is to grab another ROM (from the Play if possible), unzip it and check its symlinks. I'm not too sure of what symlinks your ROM needs. You can see the symlinks in the update script file in the Meta-Inf folder.

wont work.
locked bootloader cant flash a whole filesystem and datasystem
thats why UK rom has to be flashed as nandroid
1-2 files with the wifimodules work because your just pushing something
but when you try to
format /system
push /system
format /data
push /data
it basicly is going to wipe out CWM recovery in the process because if ur aware the CWM resides in system folder
so yes it wont work for locked bootloader
also I wouldn't keep setup wizard because it is a costly file to keep when it's never needed
the cost is about 1.2 mb not including data if i remember correctly.
so its gone.
when you use nandroid backup you dont need it anyway
I think you're right, I forgot about where the cwm was.

ya i know because i've tried it myself
i created update .zip and the CWM would always return error
i could never get it to work as many times as i tried
I like it, very nice. Plenty of space, apps and drawer loads faster. I implamented the "adb shell, pm setInstallLocation 2, exit". That way I can choose pretty much any app to be moved to sd or installed to sd. Stable rom so far today, no issues.

=============== How to Flash ===============​
Download the ROM below and place on your internal_sdcard or sdcard (doesn't matter, just remember where you put it!)
Go into Settings > Power > Fast Boot and uncheck that.
Turn the phone off. Once off, press and hold the Volume Down + Power Button until you reach the white bootloader screen
Choose "RECOVERY" (volume down and up to move, power to select)
You SHOULD make a backup by tapping on the "Backup" button. You are not required, but I would recommend it.
You also SHOULD manually wipe cache, dalvik-cache, and factory reset (wipe /data). This can be done by tapping on the "Wipe" button. Choose those 3 options (and even system if you want, even though the install script does that for you)
Choose "Install" and locate the ROM wherever you put it. NOTE: If you don't see it, make sure that either internal_sdcard or sdcard is mounted. This can be done via the "Mount" button at the main menu of TWRP. Be sure that either internal_sdcard or sdcard is checked!
Wait until the install is finished and then tap "Reboot to System"

FAQ (Updated 5.29.12)
​
Q: What makes this ROM different than all the other ROMs?
A: First and foremost, you will get the best support from the viperROM Team (-viperboy- and Vinchenzop). We personally reply to almost every post and we're always in the thread trying to help out. If you have to wait more than an hour or so for your question to be answered, that is unusual! What else is different??
The inclusion of the OC Daemon for unprecedented battery life and performance
The custom viperControl script that handles the OC daemon, bloat, and removed app management (more to come too!)
A highly tuned system for incredible smoothness

Q: Do I really need to wipe coming from another version of viperROM?
A: I always recommend that and that is how I test my ROMs. You may be not have any issues if you don't wipe, but you might.

Q: Where are all the cool add-ons?
A: Check post 4 for more information. More add-ons will be posted and available in GooManager in the future.

Q: What is battery calibration and should I do it?
A: Yes!! If you aren't getting wonderful battery life or you think you can do better, do it! Here is the method I have used even back to my EVO 4G and it has always done well by me: Wipe battery stats (from recovery, or Battery Monitor Widget can do it [Menu > Statistics] and it doesn't matter what percentage you're at when you do so. Let the phone die and then fully charge. Take it off the charger and don't plug it in until it dies again, then fully charge. Your next charge cycle will be much better!
What some people don't understand is that you're not calibrating the battery as you are calibrating the phone. When you wipe and do this procedure, the phone reads where the max and min voltages are so it can report battery stats accurately.

Q: What is the deal with tethering?
A: As of right now, native tethering isn't unlocked. The included WiFi Tether should work just fine. You may need to play with the settings, possibly choosing "Generic ICS" under device profile and enabling "Routing Fix" and "Enable MSS Clamping"

Q: I'm getting less than great battery life, what is the deal?
A: Battery life is affected by many things, such as screen-on time, signal strength, etc. Be sure that you do not have any rogue apps by checking for wakelocks with BetterBatteryStats found Here

Q: Do any themes work with this ROM?
A: The only mods and themes that we can be sure will be compatible with viperROM are the ones that are found within this thread or available via GooManager. If there is a theme that you would like to try, make a nandroid and try it. If it doesn't work, restore your nandroid. Please let us know any themes that do work with viperROM!

---------------------- Special Features of viperROM ----------------------
viperControl Script
This script is the main script used to control many features within viperROM. Currently with this script, you can:
Adjust the OC Daemon
Change schedulers
Adjust voltage (if on a custom kernel)
Manage removed apps
Freeze any app on the phone - NOTE: Not available on ICS yet!
Modify lock screen text - NOTE: Not available on ICS yet!
Run "fix permissions" (for FC issues)
Adjust the capacitive button brightness
Edit some features in build.prop
Manage the hosts file
Fix a damaged /misc partition
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
To access viperControl:
Open up Terminal Emulator
Type "su" (lowercase, without the quotes and grant it Superuser access if you haven't already)
Type "vc" (lowercase, without the quotes)

OC Daemon​
The OC daemon was created by rmk40 of Team Unity. I take no credit for the daemon, only the script I made to make it easier to work with. More information can be found here, but I will sum it up and explain the script below...
This daemon, written in C, completely eliminates the need for SetCPU and other CPU controlling apps. The daemon handles min/max frequencies for both screen on and screen off but it has one more trick up its sleeve... It can change the governor INSTANTLY depending on the screen state. I have tested it and I can tell you that it really does work instantly and I think this is going to be a great battery saver! I have set default values within the ROM as follows: Screen Off - conservative @ 192min/432max and Screen On - ondemand @ 192min/1188max. Using these settings, I get NO lag. Battery life is amazing, over 19+ hours for me with moderate usage!
If you decide that you want to change the settings of the daemon, here is how you do so...
Open up Terminal Emulator
Type "su" (lowercase, without the quotes and grant it Superuser access if you haven't already)
Type "vc" (lowercase, without the quotes)
Enter "1" (without the quotes) and you will see all of your options
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
All the settings can be edited from there. If you want to verify that this is working, you can run these commands from adb shell:
Current CPU frequency
Code:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq
Current CPU governor
Code:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
Current min CPU Freq (you will see this change when the screen state changes)
Code:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
Current max CPU Freq (you will see this change when the screen state changes)
Code:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
Here are a few things that you need to know about the script...
You MUST flash a custom kernel to overclock! The ROM includeds the stock kernel that is not capable of overclocking. Well why do you call it the "OC Daemon" then?? Because I didn't make it and that's what they called it AND the daemon is capable of controlling OC. Makes sense to me. If you want to overclock (after flashing a custom kernel, of course), run the script and change the MAX awake to whatever OC you would like.
The phone will boot up and detect if you're using SetCPU or other CPU apps. If you are, the daemon will be DISABLED automatically. If you aren't, the daemon will be enabled.

Sent from my lair.
Installed and running it through its paces.
I had one issue where my BT pairings weren't working. I'd pair, then look back and the pairings were gone.
Rebooted/cleared cache/dalvik/fixed permissions seems to be ok now.
Speeds are good. Doesn't seem much faster than stock, but still working on it.
So far, stable. Gotta go out in a bit so I'll look at battery life and other stuff then, but it seems typical ViperRom at this point: Fast, stable, and wonderful.
Vin, get to work on battery percents and stuff!

As usual, I'll be running this show. You need to quit complaining. I'll put up with this in the 3d forums, but here, we just make out (awkward?). I'll get to the percentages tonight most likely
Edit: I haven't seen it yet, but I'll host a mirror shortly so there's no issues for people
Make out? Oh god, it's about TIME! I thought you'd never ask
Anyone wanna pm me a HTC dev login? I been trying for 2 days to get activation email. Used all 4 of my email accounts. Looks like I'm going to have to start making new ones.

Wow. You must be in your early twenties. Lol. Anyways thanks for this. I tried applying the circle battery mod on this Rom but didn't work because I forgot where I put the 3 xml files I needed before recompiling. I'll just leave that up to the professionals.

This may sound noobish but how do you install this rom? I tried to flash the new CW RECOVERY but terminal couldn't push it and i have the htc dev unlocked.

I used to be able to do that. Then something terrible happened.....I got old lol
Anyway, I'm dying to try this but I am having problems getting rooted. When it comes to root, do you do the HTC Dev unlock then run the root script here, or do just one of them?

Sofla, you're better than this...
Use the HTC unlock method, install a recovery, then flash...
HTC Unlocked, TWRP Recovery installed and 1st custom ROM installed. Not bad for 3 days after picking up this device. Restoring apps now and will see how this one compares to stock.

I spent most of yesterday trying to figure out what I've done wrong. I did the HTC unlock method, and that was the end of things that went right. I tried to install twrp because I read that cwm wasn't working. I installed su but there is no su binary. I'm thinking that is the problem, that I can't use superuser.
