Hey guys,
I fell in love with the TouchFlo 2D but unfortunately it doesn't work right on a german ROM.
In the three weeks, many ROMs with TF2D includet have been released - but I totally lost the overview. So I need your help, the make a decision for my new ROM.
I'm going to list the things, that ROM should do. If you know a ROM, that matches my conditions, I would be so glad if you could simply post it here.
- TF2D should work completly
- The 20 Key version have to be working
- When the Audi Manager plays music an I press the power button, it HAVE TO keep playing the music
- Please no S2U2 includet
- As fast as possible (It don't need to have much software - I can install the stuff I need by myself)
-It should be stable
So guys - I hope someone is in the knowledge of a ROM like discribed and I would be sooo glad if you could help me.
Greets,
Parg
[ROM][WWE][04-04-2009]At0mAng V5.3|Phoenix 21042|Beta RC3|Rhodium(TP2) Apps & TF3D
Brand new build as of April 4, 2009.
This ROM is based on the latest HTC Official ROM (20764) with 21042 XIP ported in.
If you go into Settings/About/Version you will see what I mean.
This ROM is still in beta stage. It should solve the AT&T random data connections. If you download this ROM please test GPS and all basic functions.
All functions besides phone, data, GPS and anything else that needs phone service seem to be working ok. I can not test. If you like to see what I am working with you may do so here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3561163&postcount=286
Please report back any issues you may have besides any TF3D2 issues.
Thanks once again!
ROM can be downloaded here
http://www.4shared.com/file/96735671/7cd5ccdd/Phoenix_RC3_RUU_signed.html
Things to do:
Clean up shortcuts
A few more tweaks
Any issues that may come up during testing.

Fixed the "start" from being displayed
Windows live is missing. A new version just came out today...
All people does not seem to be crashing here but changed a few things from last upload so maybe it is fixed
Not sure why opera is loading...looking into it.
Have you tried GPS?
gps seems to be fine here same as previous roms for me : )
Does this have most of the latest manila fix included?
I'm trying to apply v1c and internet tab patches, but manila freezes every time after a reset
Hi, i know this isn't a bug but was wondering if you knew how to fix this problem thats is affecting all TF3D 2 users out there.
The problem is in the original Touch Pro TF3D you could fast forward and rewind a song with a circular motion on the capacitive d-pad in the Music tab.
HD and Rhodium Manilla doesn't have these features since those devices don't have a capacitive d-pad like the Touch Pro does
I was just wondering if there was anyway to have Touch Pro music tab in the new TF3D 2???

No it does not. I left it up to the user to update what they want. It seems some updates fixes things while it breaks others.

New build up. Getting closer to final. Please report back any bugs. Also let me know how GPS is working, even if it is working fine.

Just some updated Rhodium Apps and changed the way the ROM is built...
very nice
all the annoying bugs are gone
hard to believe this is a work in progress!
Some programs won't run (minor bug)
EDIT - NOT BUGS, REALISED THIS IS BY DESIGN. MESSENGER NOT BUILT INTO ROM BUT ICONS ARE SO LOOK IS CONSISTENT IF YOU INSTALL MESSENGER.
/EDIT
Hi mate - just flashed v5.3. First couple of things I tried were:
- Messenger
- Windows Live
- Mail Setup
Each one reported files couldn't be opened (Messenger and Windows Live have icons in the Online folder of Start, so wonder if it's a dependant file missing for them, Mail Setup has generic "unknown file" icon).
If anything else pops up while I'm installing and playing I'll shout, but the ROM's certainly looking nice and very responsive so far - thank you.

Windows Live and Messenger are not built in. I have removed icons and will post the latest Live/Messenger with the nicer icons when ROM is done. I use to cook Live/Messenger in cause some people had problems installing it from CAB but latest version works well.
Thanks!
Great!
i love your roms. Donated 10 $! please don't stop.

Thanks! I am not stopping. The final of 5.3 should be up soon. I may post one more beta before making it final to make sure all the bugs are worked out.
New Build
Getting close to final and posted RC4 in the main ROM thread that can be found here.

Please read through first page of thread for all important info.
May a mod please lock this thread.
Thanks to everyone who helped me test!
Thread closed per OP request.
I am naming this ROM with my wife's initials CG as a token of appreciation for her support of my work on this project.
Also credit should be given to Chaosz-X, as part of our ROM was based on his work (mainly the vendor config files).
We have moved to RC release which means it's fairly stable and with most functionality supported. But it doesn't mean it's fully working there are still some bugs and some functionality unsupported see below section to see what is not working.
Also remember that this is not a ported rom it's build from scratch with official HTC HC kernel source modified to work with JB AOKP, so it's very stable but the progress is slower since the degree of difficulty is higher. So be patient.

That's because it's build from aokp tree directly, if you have use cm9 or aokp or any other aosp flavor rom, this is how small it usually is. But it doesn't have gapps. so you need to download those separately.
Well, installed, but it doesn't seem to be booting. It just stays at the initial HTC screen. I'll leave it be for a few more minutes, but if it doesn't work, I'll upgrade to Honeycomb and then try flashing it again.

Makes sense. The files for my phone that are built from AOSP are always smaller than the original ROMs, too.

Already started the process to upgrade to HC. I'll keep that in mind for next time, though, if necessary.
Flashing right now
Edit: Ok so from the few minutes i been playing with this the only bugs i notice are:
Red perimeter around the screen if i remember that has to do with the drivers
A occasional lag with the keyboard
the nav bars look too small but once i went into rom control and changed the nav bar width back to default they looked better
Whenever I long press anything on Trebuchet or Nova the screen rotates and then rotates back real quick not allowing me to move the item or anything
I downloaded and it installed on top of Honeycomb without a problem. This looks very promising!
yncconsulting, are you interested in feedback and bug reports at this time, and is this thread the right place for it?

I saw at first the same issues with the red perimeter and not being able to drag an app to the desktop, but this has fixed itself after installing an app from the Play Store.
EDIT: oops, now the rotate-when-drag-to-desktop effect has reappeared
Thanks for the ROM its working great the only issues I have run into is with the homescreen transitions little laggy. A few forced closes when I use the ROM settings and tried to change the theme. Any chance of getting a Sense 4 integration in the future? Or any Sense for that matter I know that this is huge having a working ICS but I really like having a Sense in there too. Again great job guys.
Sent from my HTC Express using xda premium
Wow, sounds great.
I know over on the E4GT you have to be VERY careful about how to flash an AOKP ICS build, what recovery to use, what kernel to use - lest you brick your rig.
Any special precautions here?
** Thanks so much for this! Should I assume that the pen will work everywhere with this rom as it does in HC?

Guys, hate to bust your bubble...but this is an Alpha-release, which means more things don't work than those that do. Please read my original post, this release is for ppl who are curious about ics, want to play around with it.

It doesn't happen for me, wanna share a video of how that works?
Don't need bug report as there are too many and we know it. Unless you have some ideas or suggestions on how to fix the issues.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
Okay, on this ROM now.
I've seen a couple of the bugs that the others have seen, but no big deal for me. For the rotating thing, a reboot put it back to normal for me.
The biggest thing I've noticed that actually does matter to me (other than the rotating thing above) is that scrolling can be wonky at times. If I flick too fast, it won't scroll very much, or it will just bounce a little bit where it is. I sometimes have to follow through with the motion all the way for it to smoothly scroll, in any direction. If you need a video of that, just let me know.
You're off to a better than excellent start. Of course there's bugs that need to be worked out, but you've gotten further than anybody else has, so kudos!
Not that we don't want to but this is source from aokp which means its pure google android without any HTC add on.

I'm first long pressing an app icon on the desktop, the screen rotates twice while I keep the finger down.
I then enter the apps menu and try to long press a widget, then swipe over to the apps section and long press an app, both with the same effect.

Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy!
you have done an excellent job with the xperia u 5.1 AOSP rom
I downloaded the kumquat xperia U android 5.1 rom you uploaded on 15 th march it is way better please keep on posting updates i absolutely love the transparent app drawer ......
there is a sound issue with the rom though sometimes you cant hear the ringtones , otherwise it rocks
thank you again please keep updating .....
you deserve more credit than you get .... and please do something about the black lockscreen can it be transparent please thank you again
you saw that build
I removed it because it was only a work-build, and i uploaded it there only temporary so that i could download it to my phone (i wasn's at home).
I like the transparent app drawer too, about the lockscreen wallpaper.. for now.. the only option is for you to change the ro.config.low_ram=true in to ro.config.low_ram=false in build.prop , but ill figure out something else.. probably
EDIT:... there is a new build, i just tried it, its uploading now, it should be smoother , and with less graphical and audio glitches.
pirej if you are reading this a big thank you
just downloaded the new xperia u 5.1 rom you uploaded on the 17 March it is very good much better than the one on 15 march , everything works ie sound and all i love it i really hope a lot many people download this rom, you will do a better job than (CM12 thread by agontuk ) hopefully you will start your own Cm12 eagerly waiting, till then will be using your Aosp version .
a big thank you to you made my day brother ......
Can you make it for Xperia P?
great job pirej
You need to advertise your product better its a shame how few people are downloading this rom which is far more functional than CM12 builds .
you must at least have a expanded view of the " ABOUT PHONE " in your thread and change the wallpaper background it almost looks black, otherwise people who are visiting are overlooking the fact that you are the only one who has developed a 5.1 rom that is fully functional for daily ue.
Thanks, keep up the good work .....;.

Thanks for your positive comments, i dont want to brag about the rom, and i knew it would be like this even before making the rom/thread.
The bottom line is that im doing this primary FOR ME, and im just sharing my work with you or anyone else who wants to try it.
I will post some new screenshots, but it wont change anything.
Thanks again.

Missing some features
Hi! This rom you did is awesome and goes very well, but I miss some things about stock lollipop:
- Recent apps view.
- Transparent status bar / app color status bar.
- lockscreen wallpaper available (black screen seems horrible ).
Thank you for this room that have come back to live my old Xperia U!!!

Question
Any chances to make Video Recording working? What`s the problem? Related with what?
Almost perfect
Hi! Thank you for sharing your home-made ROM, which is FANTASTIC! Just one question: what will I have to wipe to make the update to the last version without losing my data-apps etc? Cache and dalvik cache only? No wipes?

This ROM is great, you made this rom even better than cm 12 project by agontuk
Almost everything is working and stable
I just see a few bug like YouTube app working lagy
And transparency effects missing like black lock screen
I hope your can fix these sorry for my English
are there still any memory leak in 5.1
Really a great ROM... stable and faster than KitKat ones I've tested!
Keep working on it!
This is all based on personal opinions and experiences. I mean no offense to any of the developers. None of this should be taken as an insult, because it's not intended to be.
Android 5.x:
- Stock: I'll always like the simplicity in design of the older Touchwiz versions. It was nice, but it got pretty laggy after a while.
- Light Xperion:
- ColorOS: Link's broken.
- MIUI 8: Link's broken.
- MIUI 9: Link's broken.
- ADS Sony: Link's broken.
Android 6.0:
- Stock: Starts lagging so bad after around two years of use. Literally no apps installed other than the necessary ones. No games, nothing. Internal storage kept always empty. Became so laggy that the status bar took literally almost one whole second to pull down. Not really that good of an experience. The system took way too much space and didn't have that many features. Sure the theme engine was nice, but that's about it. There isn't really any point into reviewing this, but i thought it might be kinda interesting, if anyone else experienced the same issues as me.
- MIUI 8: About what you'd expect. It's MIUI. Feature packed, as usual. Sometimes laggy, as usual on a low end phone.
- MIUI 10: Graphics pack over MIUI 8. Looks nice.
- Slim6:
- ADS Asus: Link's broken, sadly. I really wanted to see how it was with all the apps i suggested adding. Should have been pretty much a full Asus experience, except the SystemUI.
- SuperROM:
Android 7.x:
- HalogenOS: Doesn't install, "E3003: Can't install this package over newer build.", which makes no sense because the phone was fully wiped. Tried many times, going from different ROMs back to this. Never worked. It looks pretty nice in the screenshots, even has some custom apps. Quite unfortunate that it doesn't install.
- Odyssey Note8: I personally don't like 3MinitBattery, never liked it. Other than that it lags quite a lot. But it's kinda expected since it's supposed to be a ROM ported from a phone with much more horsepower under the hood.
- SEP Lite: Doesn't recognize the J500F as "J500xx". Refuses to install
- SEP: I just don't get why the Lite version doesn't install. This one installed just fine. Anyway, it's just stock Touchwiz, nothing much to say about it. It runs just fine, nothing more, nothing less. I like the little touches like the Aroma installer and the amount of options are offered.
- WyckedOS: Doesn't flash. "No digest file found".
- SpaceOS: Doesn't flash. "No digest file found".
- Mokee: Doesn't boot. Artefacts. Booting forever.
- AOSP CAF: Doesn't flash. "Can't install this package over newer build".
- CosmicOS: Doesn't flash. "Can't install this package over newer build".
- Serenity: Touchiwz, just Touchwiz. Just like SEP, it's just Touchwiz. The same, but slightly different features. Like SEP, it's as fast as Touchwiz can get, which is not very fast, but it's usable.
- XOS: Doesn't flash. "No digest file found".
- XOSP: Crashes on boot. Massive graphics artefacts. Custom kernels result in bootlooping.
- Ground Zero Validus: Very slow boot compared to the rest, takes way too much time. Glance doesn't work, just shows the lockscreen directly. Doesn't even have an internet browser app installed. The home screen is a random mess. It's not really that polished. But i like that you can make the statusbar transparent with a blurred background. I get what they were doing with the grid style recents, but a more HTC-like approach would have been a lot better, since the grid style only allows 8 apps at a time to be shown, plus they change size depending on how many there are and you can't swipe them to close them, you must hit the tiny "X" button.
- Ground Zero Tesla: Boots the same as slow, but this time it's pre-rooted instead of just having Magisk there to root it yourself. Normally i would complain about it being the same, or about the fact that it's lacking Substratum unlike the other one, but i'm actually very ok with it because i like the features it has. Their custom Kernel Adiutor version supports voltage and sound control, which is a really nice feature. It even has a custom theme, which, yeah, it might hurt some eyes, but it's there at least. It's above average. I wouldn't say good, but it's not bad either and has some unique features. The presentation is messy.
- Hexagon: "No digest file found", but it's installing, maybe if i were to replace the installer script from the other ROMs with this one... Hmmm... Maybe some other time. After finishing installing, it crashed on boot just like XOSP. Graphics artefacts, display slowly fading to yellow for some reason. Doesn't reboot with other kernels, but stays on the boot screen indefinitely.
- DarkNess reDefined: Doesn't flash. "Can't install this package over newer build".
Android 8.x:
- LineageOS: First impression was great, as usual with all LineageOS ROMs. It's pretty much the base for all ROMs. it's good if you like clean and simple UIs.
- AOKP: Besides not having an "OOBE", the customization app has a rather outdated design. Also, the app installer crashes every time i tried to install anything. On the flip side, the customization app offers a wide range of options, nothing to complain about that. Can install apps with 1 Click Installer which uses root, or (i haven't tested) with Lucky Patcher.
- Toxyc: The customization was very complex, but it didn't even have an internet browser pre-installed and the messaging app kept crashing over and over again. Unusable, because it doesn't have basic functionalities like text messaging. Another unfortunate one, because the performance was also good.
- ViperOS: I don't have anything to say about it. Good customization app. Nothing more, nothing less. Good performance, almost wanted to stay on this ROM.
- dotOS: Didn't boot at first surprisingly. Got locked up at the Samsung logo. But the issue was the kernel. After i flashed Jet Cooled Kernel it booted right up. After boot, i was met with a really nice UI, a very mature and modern looking customization app and overall no bugs whatsoever. In conclusion, broken kernel, but good performance and stability with any other kernel.
- Ressurection Remix: As expected, it has every possible customization option there could possibly be. You can even customize the customization app. It's just mindblowing.
- Tipsy: Not only the home button doesn't wake the screen, it also has barely any customization and the home screen you're greeted with is quite messy. The theme engine only themes the settings app and the pre-installed Kernel Adiutor, not even the statusbar/QS. You can't even reprogram the keys from the customization app, like you can do on all the other ROMs, to some degree. Too bad the Tipsy theme was kinda cool, black with glowing yellow accents. Even has doze settings, something that the other ROMs don't have. Could have been a lot better, the 3rd unfortunate one.
- crDroid: Link's broken.
- Ground Zero Validus: Link's broken.
- LineageOS GO: Link's broken.
Common 8.x issues: Searching for locations in the weather provider app doesn't work.
Android 9.x:
- eOS: What a gorgeous ROM. Probably my favourie so far. Doesn't have lots of customization, compared to the other ROMs, but the whole UI is already custom. Good performance, very stable.
- LineageOS: About what you would expect from LineageOS. A perfect base ROM. Everything works. Doesn't really do much, but it's perfectly fine. Customizable buttons and LiveDisplay are the main extra features over basic AOSP, which are more than welcome.
- LineageOS GO: Link's broken.
- AOSPExtended: This was, like, GOOD good. I think this might have broken through RessurectionRemix's level of customization. The UI is smooth and responsive, probably the best i've seen so far. The pre-installed themes are really nice. The camera, omg... This phone can actually take good photos, it's incredible. It actually acts like a 16MP camera, the photos taken in daylight are so detailed. The amount of options in that camera app is outstanding, and you can even turn off denoise completely. The only bug i encountered was after flashing Magisk, the wallpaper broke completely. It defaulted to the original AEX one, couldn't change it in any way. After saving a wallpaper and going to /data/system/users/0, the actual wallpaper was the one i set, but the one showed was the default one. Something broke hard, i have no idea how or what. You have to change the wallpaper manually from where the current wallpaper is actually stored, but that means no Live Wallpapers. Installing an app also breaks the ROM, because the install screen replaces the home screen, and uninstalling an app causes the same effect. Needs a restart after installing any app. (Not affected by Google Play install/uninstall, only when manually installing .apk files.). I personally can get over all these bugs, because the battery life is amazing, the performance is probably the best out of all ROMs and it has the customization features i want. I kept this ROM as my main one.
- EvolutionX: Link's broken.
- Kraken Project: Link's broken.
- Ressurection Remix: Link's broken.
- Carbon: Doesn't flash. "No digest file found".
- Pixel Experience: Pixel ROM, nothing exciting. Doesn't have customization, doesn't have anything. It's about what you'd expect, it's just stock Pixel UI. One thing i have to complain is that the camera performance is extremely bad and i find it very wery weird that out of all the ROMs, this one doesn't have GCam.
- Bootleggers Shishufied: Doesn't have bugs. Runs fine. Has good customization. It doesn't really stand out in any way.
Android 10.x:
- AncientOS: First of all, wow, how animated everything is. I don't know if i should say it's obnoxious or cute, but i guess it's a bit of both. Nonetheless, i don't mind the animations. I like that it features an AOD, great UI customization and a variety of non-AOSP system apps. Two of the surprising features are Dirac Audio and double tap to sleep/wake. It's actually good. Besides a slight problem with the animation when going out of the AOD mode, i don't see any issues. Overall a fun ROM suitable for daily use.
- crDroid:
- Xtended XQ: I don't like being so negative about stuff, but there are too many problems not to talk about them. First of all, there is no Settings shortcut on QS panel, which i find really weird. If you change anything in the QS, the edit button just shoots offscreen, being unable to change the QS icons without "catching" the editor button while the QS are closing, or changing the DPI to some very high amount. The AOD settings crash the settings app and you're unable to change the AOD style, position, color, font, or anything else. The AOD text function is broken, but at least the image one works, yay... You'd better get used to screen burns, because the AOD is actualy, as literal as it can get, always on, no way to change it, enable a wave function or just turn it off completely. The transparent theme is buggy at best, The colors of the QS, even if you change them to accent color, they are still changing when you extend the QS panel. Yeah, that's about it. It's not that great. At least in terms of performance it was one of the quickest to boot and app opening times were very short.
- Corvus: Imo, the quotes app is really cringe. More or less the same as AncientOS, minus the animations and the fun UI. And mostly stock apps too. Mixed feelings about this one. Average at best.
- Bootleggers Unshishufied: It's nice. Runs well. Doesn't have that much of a custom UI, but i like that it includes non-stock apps, a custom theme from "out of the box" and many customization features. I don't like that LiveDisplay doesn't work. But, yeah, it's fine. I just don't get why the other version doesn't work. Oh, and it doesn't have a camera app.
- Bootleggers Shishufied: Doesn't flash. "No digest file found".
- Bliss: By far the best Andorid 10 custom ROM i've tried so far. it has all the customization features i want and even more. The performance is very good, you don't even notice it's an 8 year old phone. Besides a few weird bugs, like not being able to change the wallpaper (also an issue on AOSP Extended) and not being able to disable the AOD, it's overall very stable and functional. I also like that the UI has that extra something, that little bonus touch to stand out from the rest.
- ArrowOS: Link's broken.
- HavocOS: Link's broken.
- RevengeOS: Link's broken.
Android 11.x:
- LineageOS: Tried an earlier build, everything was broken (internal storage not recognized, not saving photos or screenshots, SIM didn't work, SystemUI crashes and other things. That day i wrote "Imagine that everything is broken, but then you dropped your phone on the floor and accidentally set it on fire afterwards. That's how this build of LineageOS feels.", which i think it's absolutely hilarious. But, yeah, now it's fine. Everybody says the bugs have been fixed and it's good for daily use. I may or may not test it again at some point.
Android 12.x:
- LineageOS:
Android 13.x:
- LineageOS: I mean... It works just fine. It doesn't help that the UI looks really bad on Andorid 13. That new quick toggle bar is just useless. So few toggles in view. Just doesn't make sense. As for bugs, only the Gcam Go app doesn't adjust exposure. But that's just an app, it doesn't really count as a bug. Surprised to see that it comes with Dolby. I wanted to enable stereo speakers, but i simply couldn't figure out the mixer_paths.xml. And the ultra dim display toggle is an S-Tier feature, especially because it doesn't seem to apply a filter, but actually tune the brightness. Double tap to wake/sleep is also a feature i wouldn't have expected to see.
Common issues on ALL ROMs: The "INSTALL_FAILED_NO_MATCHING_ABIS: Failed to extract native libraries, res=-113" issue occured on all ROMs. Can't install any 64-bit apps.
If anyone has a link or backup of the ROMs i couldn't download because the links were broken, please help me by providing a link. Thank you in advance.
