[Q] Questions about latest Virus Eternity 3.0 ROMs - HTC EVO 3D

I found that gg.jpg picture of Alessandra Ambrosio inside the Leedroid APK under res/drawable-hdps. I tried to replace it with a black 540x960 "gg.jpg" file but then I couldn't figure out how to reinstall Leedroid with the resulting APK. I had also tried updating Leedroid Tweaks but none of the versions I downloaded seemed to install successfully. Is the latest build of Eternity 3.0 running the latest version of Leedroid Tweaks? Is there a flashable or installable Leedroid Tweaks with a black background instead in case someone wants that as an option?
I also had a problem with Leedroid Tweaks in r193 where when I tried to change the overscroll color, the phone would crash and bootloop and I had to start all over again. Is that fixed in r218?
What's the deal with alternative kernels for r218? People are talking about chad's kernel having better battery life and being faster. Is it included in r218 or do I need to download and flash it separately? Is "InfectedROM_Eternity-SynergyforCHAD-b1.zip" the same as r218 except with chad's kernel and the Eternity blue theme? I'd like the "stock" theme rather than the blue theme. If I need to flash chad's kernel separately, from where can I download it? Is it already overclocked? Or is the overclocking something you have to do with "System Panel" or "SetCPU"?

So I was able to open up the zip file for the latest Eternity 3.0 ROM and I extracted "system/app/TweaksCDMA.apk" to my desktop and then I opened that file with IZArc, removed res/drawable-hdpi/gg.jpg, and then saved the file. Then I opened the apk again and put a new black gg.jpg file in res/drawable-hdpi and then saved it again. Then I deleted "system/app/TweaksCDMA.apk" from the Eternity ROM zip and replaced it with my modified version. After flashing the updated ROM file I have found that Leedroid Tweaks no longer has the image of Alessandra Ambrosio as the background so it's SFW
As an aside, I'm still unable to change the overscroll color with Leedroid Tweaks without having to wipe/reflash the ROM. For some reason that setting with this version of Leedroid Tweaks makes the phone immediately bootloop. Lesson learned. Stay away until someone updates Leedroid in this ROM. This is still true as of the r218 of Eternity.
If anyone knows a solution, please let me know.
Thanks.

I'm getting frustrated with Virus's latest Eternity 3.0 ROM: "InfectedROM_Eternity-SynergyforCHAD-b1.zip"
First issue:
WiFi is often disconnecting and failing to reconnect. I try switching Airplane mode on and off and WiFi off and on and rebooting. Eventually it will reconnect but it's definitely not connecting as reliably as it did with r193.
Second issue:
Titanium Backup Pro 4.8.4 keeps locking up during batch restores. I've been trying to get all my apps restored last night and all day today and I keep having to FC Titanium and start again. I have also had the phone crash and reboot during a TB batch restore several times today.
Third issue:
Even when I'm connected to WiFi (at home and at work), I'm getting a lot of network timeouts. For example, I open "Google Play" and get the spinner for a while and then get "Connection timed out" [Retry]
Fourth issue (already mentioned):
Changing the overscroll color in Leedroid Tweaks cause the phone to crash and bootloop.
Also, the phone definitely "seems" less responsive and more laggy than it did on r193.
I do really like the blue themeing, however.
I did all the wiping I could with TWRP before flashing this ROM. I could try starting over again. Any other suggestions?

Fifth issue:
Power+Home native screenshots produce 0 B (empty) jpg files in /sdcard/DCIM. This was also the case with r193.
I was able to download a different root screenshot app from "Play Store" and got that to work instead. Still, it's annoying that the native screenshot functionality is broken.

What Hboot are you running? Sounds like a kernal issue to me. :/

How to uninstall the "minimized touchscreen bug" patch?

Hello, sorry for the lame question. I know, simple answer is "just re-flash it", but I would really appreciate another way advised to save the config and time.
I have lot of troubles after installing the subj. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=929941).
It's LG P500 running at 2.2 Froyo (stock, rooted, custom recovery):
- after applying the first version, battery management gone, access recovered by re-applying; but since then, scrolling became not so smooth as it was before; not a big problem, so I was waiting for next version;
- now, there is 1.1 version: applied that, but all the sounds individually matched to some contacts are gone, I can choose only standard sounds from /system/media, but not from /sdcard/media; tried to re-apply, get back to first version - no changes; get back to 1.1 - and now cannot choose those sounds in any system menu - for all the contacts, alerts etc etc.; but way more important, the I/O performance severely degraded, appearing as up to 10 second to open an app., which was never observed before; "SD tools" measuring shows degrading both R and W (~5 Mb/sec less now).
Is there standard stock 2.2 kernel available separetely, maybe switching back could solve these problems?
Thanks for any thought.
It's not a patch. It's a whole different zImage (kernel?). You may want to restore your backup. If you don't have one, I uploaded the stock 2.2 kernel. It's in the 2nd page of this subforum. Look for "unflash kernel".
I suggest u flash dev cavermans v3 kernel, I loved the response of it ever since I flashed it.
OK, thanks a lot for replies and links!
Yesterday, I re-installed a kernel, tried different versions... Unfortunately, something dramatically wrong with my phone.
With ringtones, it seems I ran into that problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=998520
- android does not aware of /whatever/media folder anymore.
With performance, it became a bit better after moving most of apps to SD card, but still unacceptable.
Probably, I have to re-flash the whole stuff

[Q] Problems when flashing .zip files in clockworkmod recovery

Hi,
I've been playing around with various apps, mods, launchers etc. out here rescently, and was unable to flash some of them.
First thought was they might be incompatible with my device, but some out of hero forums aren't working as well.
some hardware info:
Device: HTC Hero [T-Mobile Google G2]
rooted: yes
ROM: Elelinux v 2.3 (based upon cyanogenmod v7)
recovery: latest clockworkmod avillable for hero, i think it's 2.5.0.7 (?)
Strange thing now is, if I try flashing some .zip via "flash .zip from sdcard" my phone doesn't seem to like, it first says "opening file... starting installation..." (or something like that, just the usual way) and then completely resets clockworkmod returning to starting page as if i just had rebooted into recovery. anyone had similar problems? or can help? would be glad about it as for now i can't use lots of wonderful mods the devs are working on
just for interest, has/ will hero get clockworkmod v3? hero CDMA already got it...
thanks in advance,
summonerofdeath
Which .zip did you try flash?
Try with Amon Ra's recovery.
I don't think it will.
Flashed for example Rover theme and extras for it. Was able to flash extras but not the theme. Weird. Wasn't able to flash some modded-to-look-like-senseUI-ADW-launcher too, always same strange behaviour like said above. As well, sometimes got the issue of successfully flashing zip files with no effect, means no changes.
Already tried amonra, no solution for me as it can't handle unsigned zip files and no special folders.
Thanks & greets,
SummonerOfDeath

Very odd, have others reported problems with it?
It sounds like a bad package file to me, maybe.
For the problem of flashing zips with no changes, manually mount /system and flash again. This usually sorts it.
And for your other problems get me a recovery log and I'll have a look, you can find this by flashing your non-working file and then going to advanced and report error. That will save a log on to your SD-card under clockworkmod.

Q&A: [ROM-1.2/GRJ90] CM7Tab for the GTab (based on CM7 Nightlies) [Update: 08-15-11]

Q&A: [ROM-1.2/GRJ90] CM7Tab for the GTab (based on CM7 Nightlies) [Update: 08-15-11]
MOD EDIT: THIS IS THE Q&A SECTION FOR [ROM - 1.2] CyanogenMod 7 nightlies for the GTab
ALL Q&A FOR THIS ROM HAPPENS HERE.
Thanks.
---------------------------------------------------
As suggested, I have decided to make my own thread for the Cyanogenmod nightlies and other ROMs. It will make things a lot easier in the long run.
Disclaimer: as with the other Roms, Use at your own risk! Since the CM7 nightlies are basically an ongoing beta, you run the risk to brick your Gtab if you are not careful. Use to learn NxFlash first before attempting to flash ROMS. Also, do yourself a favor and get Titanium Backup! Always backup yours apps/settings and wipe data/cache/dalvik before flashing.
These will be using the bootloader's 1.2 Pershoot's kernel (2.6.32.43 / 1.4 ghz Kernel) for GB. This ROM works with the Gtab and should work with the ZPAD altough I have no confirmation of this yet.
Thanks goes out to: Team Douche/Cyanogenmod Devs for making a great ROM, Zyhong for showing me how to update to 1.2 and a few more tricks, Maxdamage for taking the time to compile the nightlies for 1.1 users, Pershoot for making such a great kernel and Roebeet for being the one that inspired me to take my journey down the Android rom lane.
1) latest version of CM7Tab: CM7Tab build 08082011 (Nightlies changelog)
2) Test CM7Tab with 4950 drivers: Test Build 08152011
Changes in modified version
1- replaced DSPmanager.apk with a previous version that is known to work (7.0.3) (if you open it, it FCs)
2- vold.fstab is setup as sdcard for internal storage & emmc for external card
3- using pershoot's 2.6.32.43 GB kernel for 1.2 bootloader (For more info, check his blog.
4- Read_ahead_kd increased from 128 to 2048.
5- Set up overclocking by default and battery saver script + cpu governors via userinit.sh (from Zyhong's ROM, based on Caulkin's scripts).
6- Replaced Camera libs & apk to stop the 8-bit pixelling.
7- Increased dalvik.vm.heapsize to 64m (07102011)
8- Set some values to improve video playback (07272011)
9- Changed values for lowmemorykiller minfree in init.rc (08072011).
10- changed EMMC to microsd (08072011)
11- updated ROM up to 2.3.5 (08072011)
12- Camera fix (08082011)
To-do list:
1- remove some apks (such as Rom manager) & create a removed apks folder.
--------------------------------
Issues:
1) Once you set up DSPmanager, it force crashes.
1) Vanilla CM7 nightly (only vold.fstab was modified): Latest build: Build 07262011 (Changelog)
If you have suggestions/ideas, do not hesitate to share them.
thank you.
Going to give it a try, tried cm7 a while ago and was great with it but seemed a bit slow. On Iluminate now do I have to flash back to stock?

How long ago did you try it? I try to play areound with CM7 with the CM7tab ROM to see if I can speed it up a little as well. You can give it a try and tell me what you think.

personally I have been using your build for a while and quite happy with it except the market which sometime shows my apps and other time it doesn't. I have not tried any market fixes yet, so it is partiality my fault as well.

I tried it today but was getting a lot of fc's, it did seem a little faster then I remember except the boot up was really slow as I remember. I did not give it a full try because I failed to wipe everything because I was at work and wasn't really supposed to be on it. I will do it again tonight with full wipe and see if it gives better results and let you know.
I just realized you have a tab build so I will try that one. The one thing I noticed right away with cm7 is that my tablet looked like a phone and I have been jumping around from HC roms and got used to a more tablet specific rom. I will give you update in a few hours I think.
Edit: have been trying for a couple of hours now but sent me in to boot loop had nvflash back to stock, will give it another shot once this silly Tap n Tap is finished loading.

Dalingrin was kind enough to provide a fix that seems to resolve most of the problems with market (including buying apps). It was merged in build 07092011+ so give it a try and tell me how it goes.

The FCs you were getting were probbly from DSPManager. It is a known issue that seems to come from a "broken pipe" in one of the libs. For now, it is best just to remove it.
For the bootup, someone suggested moving apps to the SD card. Apparently, it would speed up the process.
I am conscious that 2.3.4 is made with phones in mind but it is a step up from Froyo and having partial hardware acceleration helps.
Just tried again and got stuck on CM7 logo boot loop, this was with the CM7 tab build. did full wipe of cache, dalvik, and user data. Not sure what happened. Restoring to Illuminate rom if you have some ideas on how or what else I can do to try this rom let me know.
Hey there Ice.
First off, awesome work on this and thank you for taking the time.
I would recommend editing the build.prop file to set the Manufacturer to HTC. This fixes the playback issue with Netflix (Chipmunk). I tested this out fully on my gTab last night and it's the ONLY setting that needs to be modified. Aside from that, everything seems to work.
Good work!
Hi
Has anyone tried installing volume+ on this rom? I'm on BL1.1 CM7 rom but volume+ does not install. If this works, I'll take the bold step to upgrade to BL1.2.
I don't know if it's just my hardware. My gtab's speaker is very soft and I want to try cranking it up with volume+ (which works on my phone running cm7).
thanks a lot.
DroidTV phone size not full screen....Anyone have other apps that did that after....
I was using DroidTV, and it was full-screen and then rebuild my G Tab with the cm7tabl-0710200-1.2 and when I reinstalled DroidTV it is now phone size display on the G Tablet.
I used Titanium Backup to restore the app and the settings. Anyone have issues like this with an app that did that after re-installing after a full rebuild? Any build.prop setting or somewhere I could check?
Thanks. Steve.
Thanks everyone for your feedback.
@Mike: I have heard of this before and wasn't sure if anyone would be interested in it. I will change that on the CM7Tab version in the next few days.
@Vhend: Yes, Vol+ works on 1.2. You enter CWM and it works great here.
@Artful: I will look into this. It might just be that the rsolution isnÈt set right. I will let you know how it goes.

Thanks Ice. Other than that I have yet to find any major issues that in the build.
Other than apps that open portrait only with the bottom on the side with the power button. Tried to say to not rotate 90 degrees but they still open that way Apps that open landscape then won't rotate to the 90 degree position but portrait apps still open that way
This is the most stable I have used and performance seems good. A co-workers has the same build, I installed it for them since they are techie-challenged, and theirs is turtle slow because I think they have Skype running all the time.

sorry for not being clear. I did not mean pressing the volume+ button. i actually meant this app to boost the volume of gtablet.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1023433
I guess the app has dependencies on dsp manager, that's why it did not work on my B1.1 cm7. Since you have replaced the dsp with a workable one in your rom, I would like to check if the volume+ app works here.
Appreciate your work on the rom!

Actually, I think it has more to do with a problem with one of the audio libraries. I did a logcat and it seems something called AudioFlinger can't set a parameter properly.
If anyone can fix this, I can send the logcat to help out.
I wanted to apologize for not being able to upload the new nightly today. I had to rebuild my computer and took the opportunity to switch to a new Linux distro. Just tested the new system and all is great.
I will post Build 07172011 later this morning.
Where are the nightly's getting posted now? Thanks and this is the most stable MOD I've had on my G Tab.
Do video apps work as far as no rotation with Oovoo, yahoo, reelportal, etc? Audio work okay with chatting?

Disable recently used apps row in notification panel?

Is there a way to do this without pulling a file and gutting it? I would like a flasheable or installable APK.
Are you rooted? What rom are you running?
Yes. Anthrax kernel, fully stock otherwise.
If you install Leedroid Tweaks, there is an option to remove.
Thanks I saw that but was under the impression it was only for GB. I dug further and found the main thread.
Installed 4.3.1 but that caused systemui.apk and something else to break continuously (cleared cache before though).

[H910 (AT&T)][ROM + Kernel] NRD90M Modded NotSoStock ROM v5.5 1/1/2017

Hello!
Before proceeding. It is absolutely necessary for you to be on a stable TWRP build (currently, RC8, 3.0.2-0, and 3.0.2-1). Also, you must have already have had decrypted your ENTIRE phone. If your phone bootloops into TWRP, you probably didn't decrypt, and/or didn't flash no-verity properly, or it could also be that you are on an old TWRP build.
Here we have the base NRD90M ROM from LG.
I have added a few mods to it.
FEATURES
**Multi-user working!
**This ROM is deODEXd
**Has init.d support
**Modified build.prop for better performance and hardware utility
**Removed bloatware (including that HORRID Lookout)
**Force encrypt disabled
**New kernel built-in.
**Based off 3.18.31 from @jcadduono source (thanks so much)!
**Added in the blu_active governor and set as default (via post_boot)
**No-op scheduler is default, and recommended
**Updated build.prop for better Hotspot support.
**More build.prop tweaks
**init.d support baked into the kernel
**Battery life should be noticeably improved, with no loss of performance (maybe even a bit faster).
**No need to wipe anything. System and caches are automatically wiped.
**Updated to SuperSU 2.78 SR4
**Updated boot and shutdown animation to the Android 7 default (thanks @freeza )
**More bloat removed
** Now includes more performance tweaks.
**Full Busybox support included!
**Fixed updater-script and binary
**Removed Sony Bravia/Xperia Engine
**Zen_Decision HotPlug enabled by default. (This will improve battery life, especially when your screen is off)
**TCP Congestion controller set to Westwood+ (improved download speeds)
**KCAL Color Control! Plus the Color Control app! Thanks to @savoca for KCAL and the app! Thanks to @freeza for the updated KCAL.c source file
**IO Stats for scheduler turned off
**IO Read ahead set to 2048kb
**Added init.d scripts to optimize your phone, and keep it fast over time.
**VPN is fixed!
**Gallery locked files are fixed!
**Bluetooth and FM should be fixed!
**No hotspot or ADB debug issues!
**More things I can't remember.
Kernel built on the Linaro 6.1.1 x86_x64 toolchain
Latest: v5.1 combined with v5.5
v5.5 is intended only for people already on v5.1. It will not wipe anything, and your phone will not need to do its initial setup. 5.5 is an update only! You must first flash 5.1, then 5.5. You can tell TWRP to flash files in sequence, so it's no hassle. ZIP no longer checks your device, so be sure that you are flashing for the model the sticker on the phone says that it is.
Here are the changes for v5.5:
Removed boot state verification. This allows your device to pass CTS on SafetyNet. That means that you might be able to use a root hide program, or maybe full unroot within SuperSU, and perhaps apps like Android Pay and Pokemon GO will work. They will never work if root is detected, no matter what.
Used more independent defconfig lines, hopefully static will go away... I highly doubt it, might even cause a no-boot issue. If it does, just tell me and I'll fix it up.
The main changes here are even more battery saving
**some voltage control preparations (still not active)
**added a DNS resolver module to maybe help some people with hotspot.
**Bluetooth and FM should work even better than before (hopefully not worse lol)
** C-states are made aware in the kernel, so sleeping should be more effective, while waking up should be more snappy.
More things. Do it!
Here are the changes for v5:
**ViPER4Android is preinstalled
**Kernel updates to latest sources (no changes other than updates)
**Included Titanium Backup pre-installed. I highly recommend getting the license, this program rocks, and never has ads. With a license you can do batch functions, and theres more features.
**Included Kernel Adiutor to prepare future kernel updates (CPU/GPU under+over clocking later on). You can also use this to tweak I/O settings, governor, screen color). Everything should run pretty good as it is, but what I do, is set read_head in I/O to 2048, and disable I/O Stats. I also set it on boot. I do not recommend modifying any CPU or GPU frequencies since there are no changes in the kernel to allow for that.
**Updated to latest Super SU
If the ROM won't flash because it says you have the wrong device
This is likely due to the conversion thing you guys had to do to root. I don't have the AT&T device and I don't know about that conversion thing. To bypass it, open the ZIP, go into META-INF/com/google/android and delete only the file called updater-script. Replaced it with this one
No need to wipe anything. If you are on stock ROM, ODEXd or deODEXd, or any other NRD90M ROM, you don't need to wipe, the ZIP will take care of everything for you. /data will not be wiped, so all your old apps and settings will be there. Internal storage is of course untouched.
For anyone interested in my color options, they are:
My new settings are:
All 3 colors at 256
Saturation 68
Value 129
Contrast 127
Know that I love deep, rich, vibrant colors. Also, changing colors will not change effects on pictures taken! This is post-processing. Your phone's screen is what changes, not the files that you create.
Note: Adding saturation (vibrance) will always give some sort of color banding -especially since KCAL is post-processing. You can minimize color banding by ever-so-slightly reducing gamma (read as "Value" in the Color Control app), and by ever-so-slightly fine-tuning Contrast. The value changes would be minimal, and the color banding will only be reduced ever-so-slightly, but this is just how it is. Nonetheless, the device looks friggin amazing with the color options set.
Having issues? Read below.
I need you guys to hear me out on this...
I do not have this phone, I cannot do any sort of testing, nor do I keep up with your rooting method.
That said, I cannot fix things that were broken due to the bootloader (such as Static Boot), so if WiFi calling did not work for you after flashing the custom bootloader, please don't ask if it is fixed... I do not know how to fix it. When/if it is fixed, I will let you guys know that it is fixed and who to thank for said fix.
Additionally, I need you to tell me things that do not work. I might not be able to get to all messages, or questions, so if you see that I did not reply, ask again and again until I do... I will reply and answer (obviously don't spam). Be sure to quote me, mention me, or message me. I do not check-in with these threads, just the H918 thread. If you do not send me a notice, I will not know that my attention is needed.
What issues that are ROM-related, not user-related can you report? You will know it is user-related if you modified anything in the phone/ROM.
If you flashed a different kernel, I cannot help you; flash back to the NSS kernel, and re-test.
If you are unsure about an issue, do a clean flash (in TWRP: Wipe-->Advanced-->select Dalvik, System, Data, and Cache (DO NOT SELECT INTERNAL STORAGE OR SDCARD)-->Swipe to wipe-->Install ROM-->boot phone, do not change or install anything. Retry your issue, if it is fixed, great. If it persists, go into your SD Card, and Internal Storage, remove the folders called "Android" and ".android_secure", reboot and try again. Still doesn't work? Mention me and post it here.
Remember, you can backup your USER apps in Titanium Backup (do NOT backup system apps, or restore system apps/system data).
You can also backup your existing setup and apps in TWRP so you can flash back to your original setup. This is good if you did a clean flash, and your problem is still there, you can restore your backup and be like nothing was changed.
Thanks @zhuhang for V4A!
Major thanks to @Chainfire for creating SuperSU
Major thanks to @jcadduono for the root exploit, AND for the TWRP image(s), AND for inspiring me to learn to do it. Also, he supplied the stock System.img, boot.img, and sources for a custom kernel!/RealMVP
Viper4Android is included! To enable, run the app, and configure how you please!
More to come (as I learn to do it)
Please make any requests. If it is not too difficult, I will learn how to, and add it to the MODDED ROM!

Source for kernel is at (need to update)https://github.com/jcadduono/android_kernel_lge_msm8996/tree/android-7.0-security
Thanks to @jcadduono for the amazing original source he made for us ( you can find it here : https://github.com/jcadduono/android_kernel_lge_msm8996/tree/android-7.0-security
Everything is still working great! Thanks again @Tilde88. Those color settings are awesome, too. Much better than stock!
Glad to see this! Trying now..
UPDATE: Runs pretty smooth. Thanks again!
Yeah it worked perfectly now after replacing the updater-script (correctly). Thanks for doing this! My only request is just on adding the advanced power menu options such as reboot to recovery/bootloader Other than that - its perfect.

I second this! Advanced power menu with recovery/bootloader reboot would be great. I use ROM Toolbox Pro to boot into recovery as it is now.
Also, would like to put GApps Pico with the ability to add any extra Google features as necessary. I pretty much just use the play store and some services. I like minimal Google services and apps on my phone. For example, I use Waze instead of Google Maps, and I use Gmail, but not the app. I use a different email app but I cannot delete Maps or Gmail since they are system apps, just disable them and their services. I don't use OK Google, Google Now, Hangouts, etc... There are a lot more examples like this.

You can delete system apps by using a program such as Titanium Backup. You can also backup your apps, and restore them on other ROMs. Don't backup system apps, just user apps.
I recommend the Pro version of Titanium; I bought it years ago, and still use it today. One of, if not the actual best, backup/restore program.
With pro you can do batch files, instead of 1by1. Also good for games to save their current state.

Titanium Backup is great! I have the pro version as well and use it constantly. I guess I'm not really concerned with the apps taking up space, rather just starting with the bare minimum of necessary things and adding what is needed afterward. But I usually freeze the apps just to avoid any possible issues with deleting. Another app that is just as great is ROM Toolbox Pro. Their App Manager and Auto Start Manager have advanced freeze functions that show you every single activity, receiver, and service attached to each app and gives you full functionality over them.
@nikktrikk @twistedvip or anyone else that wants to test.
@me2151 has given me a new defconfig for the kernel which might fix the static boot thing. Can anyone try it out for me please? It can be found here. Let me know how it goes. Thanks.

Just flashed on my H910. Unfortunately, it still gave me the static screen upon reboot.
EDIT: It also seems to have made the phone very laggy compared to your original custom ROM.

You can flash the boot.img from the ROM you already have downloaded. Just extract it out of the .ZIP, go to twrp, and flash the image as Boot

Thanks, I just flashed back to your original custom kernel. Let me know if there's anything else y'all might come up with and want me to test out. Always willing to help out.

Everything is still running great. Much better battery life than stock! Just wanted to let you know, the only thing I have found that is missing is the Screen Capture feature. On the stock AT&T ROM, it is included in the pull down menu from the top, but it is not here at all in the custom ROM. If you navigate to Settings>Display>Home touch buttons>Button combinations, you can actually see the capture icon used as an example in the help section in the bottom half of the screen showing how to rearrange the buttons. The center button shows the capture button icon, but that button is not an available button to choose from when actually rearranging the Home touch buttons.

Screen capture can be done by pressing Vol Down and Power at the same time in any screen.

I have no problem doing a screen capture, I just wanted to let you know for the sake of knowing that the capture button icon is not included. Just so you have a comprehensive list of features no matter how minor they might be

Its also on the second screen and is very handy and much faster. I know for me my case is of some crap rubber amd hard to hit both at the same time
Got the error that I'm not a 910. Tried swapping the update script to bypass the check, but now get an error that the update binary is missing while trying to flash it. Went to check and it is still the in the zip however. Did I miss something obvious?

Sounds like you broke the ZIP. Don't modify it on your phone. copy the ZIP to your PC (don't open it from internal storage). Well, since it's broken now, download it again. When it's done downloading, open the ZIP on your PC, remove only the updater-script file, and once you have only the update-binary, re-add the updater-script.
I made a copy before I modded it. I'll try your approach and give it another go. Thanks!

Still getting bluetooth shutting off randomly.
I flashed this using no wipe, as in instructions...on Dirty Santa AT&T rooted phone. Bluetooth STILL is completely annoying and disconnects whenever it feels like it. Even Bluetooth Auto Connect and Bluetooth Keep Alive are of no use as fixes. Any ideas??? Should I wipe and just flash your rom to clear up any bugs??
[EDIT] I JUST WIPED AND FLASHED...WILL POST RESULTS!!!!!
Thanks for your awesome work and thank you for your time!!!!
