I've been interested and searching for the latest Mods on Amaze craze for s off and switching out to the new rom ICS with sense 3.6, there are some must have essentials that I can't seem to find anywhere!
I'm looking for the "Advanced Power Menu modification", options to boot into recovery, etc. i'm interested the the .zip update thru cwm. Can someone with expertise help to create this reality?

What are my options ?

Hello all!
I'm new to this and I have a few questions.
I have been reading around a little bit but it doesn't help much when you have so many codenames like Eclair, donut, vanilla and now CyanogenMod-5 that I got interested.
I have a HTC Hero, I would wait for HTC update to have Android 2.1 but the update got delayed to June. I don't want to wait 2 months for it and that's how I decided to try flashing it.
1) What are my ROM options to flash it? Is it all of them compatible or just a few ? Like, only Hero-compatible ROMs or ROMs compatible to devices that support Android ?
2) Basically I want Android 2.1 (Eclair, right?) but don't want to lose the HTC UI. Is that possible ? (the look, the widgets, etc..)
3) On the other hand, not only I don't want to lose HTC's UI as I'd like more of it. HTC Desire for example has more and new widgets that Hero doesn't have. Is there a community ROM that contains those ? Do I need a special ROM for that ?
4) Does all the ROMs contains the latest dev kernel versions ? the latest android dev version that is.
5) Does it have an auto update to update the ROM ?
6) What's the difference between Vanilla and Donut ? I see many talking about Vanilla, but shoulnd't I want the Donut instead ? ( sounded funny, I know )
Thank you in advance !
Looking forward to socialize in this forum.

1. Only HTC Hero rom's should be flashed (if you're not on Sprint Hero then you're GSM so look for GSM rom's = most) - the wiki has a page dedicated to which rom's are available.
2. HTC theme is called rosie, so look for a rosie enabled rom
3. Some extra widgets come with them - check with each release (you can find them all in the development section)
4. No, most are based upon leaked kernals which have been hacked together to work, they work well enough but as soon as the official 2.1 kernal is available for the hero it will be added in to the rom's
5. Some have OTA updates (e.g. VillainROM)
6. Vanilla just means without the HTC Sense UI (Rosie) so you don't want a vanilla rom. Donut is v1.5 (or maybe 1.6?) of android i believe.
And welcome to the community
Check out my guides for all your needs XD

Thank you! that helped tons!
One more question, mine is not Sprint Hero, just Hero
So it's certain that this is a GSM device ?
How can I tell if it's GSM or CDMA ?
gsm means u can use any sim card
cdma means u cant
Awesome. So mine must be GSM.
Now, what is Radio ROM ?
What is Radio ? Do I have to flash that as well ?
EDIT: I think I get it. It can improve the signal, yes ?
But is it safe to flash this? what are my restrictions?
Looks much more dangerous than flashing a custom ROM
Ok, much more complicated than I thought!
I need to downgrade my kernel first,
didn't find any up to date tutorials on that
only then I need to root and finally flash it
I installed this " ROM Manager " where you have some easy options:
Install ROM from SD card, Download Rom, Check for ROM Updates
just with a click (tap)
That one is easier, but does it work ? How come noone mentions this ROM Manager ?
That are many ROMs to choose..
I take it VillainROM 5.4 is the most popular/older ?
As long as it has Android 2.1 plus the latest Sense UI (not vanilla) then the number of options get trimmed a bit (or so I hope)

Its not too difficult, follow BTDAG's guide in my signature, its bang on. Install custom recovery, flash ROM.
No you do not need to downgrade your kernal. When you flash the ROM it will sort that out for you.
As for using 2.1 ROMs, I haven't taken the plunge yet, I'm using MCR3.2 which is a tweaked fast and stable 1.5 ROM.
You're right, btdag's guide did it for me. Very very useful.
Since I didn't have to worry about kernel, it wasn't thaaat hard.
I already installed VillainRom 5.4 and it's great !
Thanks for answering my questions !

[Q] Zeus Mod

I apologize in advance if this is a stupid question, but i can't really find any information on it, so i hope someone can help me.
Zeus Mod is a feature in Synergy ROMs, which enables you to click on the carrier name in the notification dropdown menu, which then shows the extended quick options, and long pressing on the carrier name shows/hides the "recent apps" section.
1. Is this correct? Or is there more to this feature than what i've listed?
2. Is this only available for Synergy ROMs (or other ROMs where it is specifically made for) ?
2.1. (If the answer to number 2 is "no"), Could i get Zeus Mod on my stock HTC ROM (ofc got root, S-OFF etc) ?
- Moon
Can't anyone help me?
What device are you using?
Oh, i totally forgot that i wasn't on my own devices forum here on XDA, so didn't bother to add that.
My device is a HTC EVO 3D GSM.
I saw your post about Zeus Mod on GSM devices, but it's only usable on deoxed roms, and my stock rom is odex :/

[Q] Assistance locating mods for custom rom development?

First thing first, Yes I am a noob. I am trying to learn how to build custom roms. I already created a working rom based off of the UCPLC5 leak. I pretty much just deleted apk files and zipaligned the rom. I am wondering if anyone would be kind enough to help me figure out where to find fix'x and mods such as accurate battery mod or 5ghz wifi fix. Is there a website that I need to look into? I have tried searching google to no avail. I also tried the search here but I am unable to get any ideas.
Thanks in advance.
you're on pretty much the only resource you need.....learn how to search, thats all i can say, because there is no 'directory of mods/fixes'.....

Task did 90% of the work, you just tweaked that base.
Learn to grab the untouched firmware and extract, deodex it then start working from that.
If you are working on a i9100 base, it would be best to check there forum section.
Deodexing and a number of the basic porting fixes are covered in my guide in the Development section.
5 GHz wifi fix doesn't apply to AT&T bases unless AT&T ****ed up on an epic scale, it's only for ported European firmwares. That's covered in the guide too.

[Q] My Top 10 S2 / Android Questions

Hi,
I am a new Galaxy S II (i9100) owner. I have a couple of questions, if some of the experienced users could please assist me I would greatly appreciate it. My questions are listed by priority:
EDIT: I am rephrasing my questions and putting the answers that I feel are best suited so that people who are interested can see the answers in one clean post
1) I understand that CM Mod is based on AOSP and is used as a base on a lot of ROMS but could someone please explain to me how a ROM could be an AOKP ROM and "Based on CM10". Are they taking certain modules from CM10 and certain things from an AOKP Build and putting it together?
ROMS usually take the best of CM and AOKP and combine to produce a more stable base.
2) I know what CWM is but once you use ODIN to flash CWM onto your phone where does it go? By this I mean, does it sit on the ROM or somewhere on your Internal SD card (or both, maybe it puts settings on your SD card). I would like to know if I format my Internal memory will it remove or cause CWM to bug out?
CWM will get removed from your phone if you flash a Kernal that doesn't have CWM on it. It will also get removed from your phone if you "format" the internal SD as that is where it is stored. CWM will NOT be removed if you flash a update to your phone that doesn't require you to "wipe"
3) I am not a fan of the Stock Samsung ROMS because of the bloatware that it contains. However, is it all possible that these Stock Samsung ROMS have built in optimization code or something that works better for my specific device? I ask this because the best battery life I've managed to get was on Stock Samsung ICS where as my battery life dies on any of the JB Roms (Even SlimBean)
AFAIK Stock Roms are optimized for basic / standard features. Custom ROM's can be optimized for the way you use your phone. A Stock ROM is a "One Size Fits all ROM" a Custom ROM can be "Tailored" to fit your needs.
4) I understand how I/O Schedulers / Governors etc work but what advantage does using a non stock Kernel have? As far as I understand these can be changed on any rooted Kernel or am I incorrect?
I/O Schedulers / Governors can be changed on rooted or non rooted Kernels. Rooted Kernels have access to their own custom schedulers and governors.
5) When I download an app from Play store is there no way for me to not install it and just download the APK? So that I don't have to backup all my apps (I don't like using Titanium very much) and so that I can just reinstall the APK files from my internal Memory?
No There is no way to get around this. Install APK files from the Web. Use Titanium Backup to backup applications installed from the Play Store.
6) I've followed the guide to enable or disable Fast Dormancy (I'm still learning about this) however when I type the code in my phone (*#9900#) or (*#0011#) nothing happens. Is this because I'm running JB and these codes only work on ICS?
These codes only work on Stock ROMS
7) When I have a look at my battery usage (currently on CM10) screen says "52%" even though my brightness is set to like 25%. I am trying to figure out why my battery is dying so fast. Is this normal?
There is no "Normal". Too many factors involved. Have a look at the BBS Thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1179809. You may post your BBS dump/log in this thread and ask the experts to analyze it for you.
8) What is the main difference between AOSP and AOKP? I understand that AOKP will open up a lot of other customizations to me but what are these customizations? I assumed it was things like setting the governor and the I/O Scheduler etc but I've installed ROMS based on AOSP that allows me to do that.
Busy Formulating an answer
9) Galaxy S2 Modems I keep flashing different modems on my phone but I see no change in signal whatsoever is there an application or anything that can help me get an accurate benchmark so that I know which modem is "best" for me?
This is usually done by trial and error. Have a look at the Modem / RILS thread to ensure that your Baseband and RIL version match. Alternatively you can use an app called GETRIL which will get the correct RIL file for your modem
10) Please don't mistake this as a "What's the best ROM??" question. I've tried many different ROMs and I still haven't got a favorite I am looking for someone who has an idea of which ROM will mostly fulfill my requirements which are:
(BTW I'm leaning towards SlimBean here)
1) JB (I love JB keyboard)
2) Battery life (I think I'm looking for something that uses the conservative governor)
3) I mainly use my phone for WhatsApp (I use this ALOT) and browsing (barely for games)
4) Lightweight (I don't want Samsung Apps, I don't want a ROM that has 3 launchers etc.)
5) I don't mind charging my phone once every 16-18 hours.
6) Preferably AOKP so I can mess around and experiment and perhaps give back to the community
This is my personal opinion but I think that SlimBean will best fit my requirements

Ha ha, next time, please don't post so many questions in one post.
Then you will get more answers IMO.
I can't answer every question, but I'll try my best:
1) As I am using stock / Sammy ROMs only, I can give no clue to that. Please search and read a bit in ROM threads.
2) In SGS2 firmware, recovery (CWM is a special, enhanced recovery) is included in the kernel. If you format your internal memory (sd card), it will be removed, and will have to flash a new firmware (whole ROM including a new kernel with recovery) to your phone.
3) I like stock / Sammy ROMs, but custom ROMs may include same or similar device-specific drivers/etc. AFAIK.
4) Most custom kernels support different I/O Schedulers and CPU Governors. So you can switch to the one you like/prefer.
5) Apps from Play store will be automatically installed on your phone. That's why so many users are using Titanium Backup.
6) There is an app from gokhanmoral to switch Fast Dormancy on/off. I don't have the link, so you have to search for it here on xda. The USSD codes won't work on some ROMsm such as non-stock or JB.
7) Have a look at BBS thread => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809. You may post your BBS dump/log in this thread and ask the experts to analyze it for you.
8) Have already google it, or look at wikipeadia. I have no better answer ... sorry.
9) Have a look at the modem thread here => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131950, and here for modem/RIL files => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1881304
10) No "What's the best ROM??" question?! Sounds like that to me You have to check different ROMs yourself and decide yourself what's best for you and your needs.
Good luck !

1. Yes the best of cm and AOKP where combined to produce a more stable base.
2. CWM or clockworkmode is a phone based recovery that allows you to make changes without powering and rebooting the phone in recovery mode. It is added to rooted kernel and will disappear if you flash a wiped or standard kernal over it.
It will not disappear if you flash an non wipe update to your phone.
3. jb roms are getting better with the battery as new optimizations are being intergrated. Stock roms were designed around the battery with minimal features implemented, when you add apps your battery will start get worse.
4. yes they can be changed on rooted kernals or non rooted kernals. On rooted kernals it gives you more control over the functions of the phone.
5. unfortnately play store automatically installs the apks automatically. you need to back them up with a program similiar to titanium back up. They are a few different versions in play store just find one you like. Only non play store apps download the apk for you to install yourself. One of the functions of CWM is to allow you to install APKS. I System Tuner Pro myself.
6. Correct, those codes only work with the stock keyboard and ics roms as JB Have very little stock apps included.
7. How fast the batttery discharges depends on a number of factors like what apps are running, If you leave wi fi on and if you have wake locks. BBs which is a battery recording app can found on this forum. Make a log of a day and post it and experenced members will review it and advise what to do to get better battery life.
8. You need to ask a developer what the differences are. But I think AOKP is an upgrade of AOSP.
9. No trial and error is the only method. Your baseband and ril must match to get the most efficiency
out of your modem. There is a small program called GETRIL which will update the ril for you.
10. unfortunately everybody's preferences are different so it is another case of trying roms till you find on you are happy with.
I hope that these answers of some help.
@It_ler @Cosmic Blue
Thanks for the replies... I have a better understanding already. I've read up on GETRIL and will give that a try.
2) In SGS2 firmware, recovery (CWM is a special, enhanced recovery) is included in the kernel. If you format your internal memory (sd card), it will be removed, and will have to flash a new firmware (whole ROM including a new kernel with recovery) to your phone.

I understand. But is the internal memory partitioned? If I use X-plore I have a 11gig SD Memory and then I have a "/Root" folder which is 2gigs
Structure looks like this: /sdcard 11gb (10.9gbfree)
/root 2gb (1.7gb free)
Does CWM and Kernel not sit in /root? and is "/root" not a separate partition?
So...Instead of doing your own research & getting full/accurate answers to your questions (and learning a lot in the process), you'd rather sit here & wait for 'users' to give you mostly vague-ish answers to them ?
(Hint: By & large, developers do not read Q&A. They have better things to do.)
Edit - List of SGS2 partitions

MistahBungle this is a Q&A thread if you don't have any A's then rather don't post. I've had the Galaxy for 3 days. In 3 days I've read a lot and done a lot of research. You reply makes no sense that's like saying: "So Instead of failing many times and then getting it right you'd rather Google and get it right the first time?". I posted here because I know 90% of the people here are experts and will give me the answers I'm looking for. Also, I'm not posting questions like "OMG Lulz teach me how to root my phone" you can see that I've tried and these are questions that I have after trying out different ROMS.
Thanks to those that are willing to help, this is what builds a good community.
So that link I posted is an illusion, huh ?

Before you start getting hostile please realise nobody on this site is obliged to help you and anyone who does reply to your thread does so in their own time and off their own volition. Beggers can't be choosers.
But otherwise your post isn't too bad. The differences between CM and AOKP are mainly cosmetic and to do with feature. There is no "AOSP" as everything is at its core based off AOSP. I always image AOKP as just a more streamlined, feature inclusive CM but recently they have started to add their own tweaks etc. Honestly, it doesn't matter anymore because with Siyah kernel (and kernels like it) being able to work on multiple platforms you can have ROMs with CM base and AOKP+Paranoid features.
The "features" I'm talking about are stuff like integrated weather, quick flashlight toggle, change the battery/signal display, etc etc.

I do agree that I should've responded in a better way, and that people are not obliged to help me. That's why I thank the people that do help. However, commenting on a thread and telling the OP to do his research doesn't seem constructive to me whatsoever (I've seen many threads like this). Posting a link is a quick CTRL+V and is way more constructive IMO.
Thanks for clearing up the differences for me. It makes a lot of sense. Everything is based on AOSP since that is the most "pure" release. AOKP is modified AOSP and CM is also Modified AOSP. So essentially most AOKP Roms take the best from AOKP builds and CM builds.

That my friend is something called "stock android layout", HTC modifies the official Google layout and changes it to something called "Sense Ui", so there are not much ways to accomplish this, the only way I know is you either need cyanogen mod, 10/10.1, aokp/aosp, or any ROM which has the stock Google layout.
From my findings I'd suggest you wait for CyanogenMod 10.1, its on a good start.

Yep that's probably the best advice. Changes to the status bar are at a reasonably low level on the phone, so a new launcher etc won't change it at all. You need a rooted device and a custom ROM to achieve it. CyanogenMod 10.1 would be an ideal one as it is pretty much stock 4.2.2 and has the features you want! Obviously with the DX there isn't many AOKP roms at present but work is underway!
If you want to keep up with updates to Android and stay completely stock a Nexus device is the way to go!
Thanx Guys..
I will now wait for CM 10.1 ... Hope it cums asap
Cant wait..
