This is a continuation of jamieg71's Root-Box port for our phone (located here), that’s actually how I found out about it. This is built with a CM10.1 kernel, and Root-Box sources, and a few additional tweaks. The ibtimes.co.uk best describes it:
"The Vanilla Rootbox ROM combines the best custom features of Android Open Kang Project (AOKP) and CyanogenMod (CM) ROM in a single profile, which includes per app DPI, tablet UI and Language features.
NOTE: As the Vanilla RootBox ROM is based on the newly released Android 4.2.2 firmware which is still under development, it may harbour a few untested bugs or broken features. However, all such issues are expected to be fixed in the upcoming updates as development progress.
Here is the complete list of key features supported by Vanilla RootBox v3.8 ROM:
-AOKP Features
-CM Profiles
-Per App DPI
-Per App Tablet UI
-Per App Language
-OTA Updates - Goo Manager
-Navigation Bar Colour
-Camera: Save to external memory
-Phone: Advance Phone Settings (Vibrate on Answer, Every 45 Seconds, On Hangup and On Call Waiting)
-Phone: Noise Suppression
-MMS: Message rate alerts (Modify SMS message limit for alert)
-MMS: Fully Customizable MMS Theme
-MMS: Soft Keyboard Type (Emoji, Enter to Send, Enter for a New Line)
-Home button call answer (Accessibility Option)
-Variable size pattern lockscreen
-LCD Density Changer
-Low Battery Warning (Pop-up & Sound, Pop-up only, Sound only, Off)
-Option to control cursor in text fields using volume keys
-Disable Fullscreen Keyboard (Landscape mode)
-Expanded Desktop
-Hold Back to Kill
-CRT Animation (Screen On/Screen Off)
-Lockscreen Shortcuts (Paranoid)
-Pie (Paranoid Android)
-Lockscreen Targets (CM)

-cLock (Chronus)
-Option to disable sound when adjusting volume
-Launch Music app on Headset connection
-Hardware Keys Remapping
-Lockscreen Hardware Keys Remapping"
-AOKP Ribbons
-Halo (THERE IS A SECURITY EXPLOIT WITH THIS, SEE HERE BEFORE USING)
Mike's Additions:
Bash: AOSP errors of "void endpwent()(3) is not implemented on Android" patched by me, custom profile (see below)
Command line tools: openvpn, openssl, nano, netcat, rsync, htop
Amazing new default wallpaper, designed by Chema Fontán
Themed Deskclock (Back with blue accents)
Added new alarm ringtone if you care for some morning madness
Compiled with GCC 4.8
ROM and Kernel compiled with Linaro -O3 optimizations
A few dpi tweaks for better experience
Slimbean Keyboard
Patched to work with Slim Gapps (to be toggleable with the Dark RootBox option)
Terminal emulator added
-More to come
I will try to provide any help I can but I’m not a developer, so my support in fixing any issues CM or AOSP related will be next to nill. I’m just sharing what is working for me if anyone is interesting in using it. I’m really happy with it.
​
Credits:
kushdeck For making CM possible on this phone, his kernel source is what is powering this ROM.
Root-box They made an awesome ROM.
jamieg71 For his excellent ROM and introducing it to our phone. I look forward to his upcoming versions.

GAPPS
I personally recommend you use the Slim Gapps with these builds, they feature toggleable apps (for use with the Dark RootBox option) and my latest builds have been patched to use the gesture keyboard with them. Also, these get updated regularly.

Also, if you want a toggleable Maps, Google+, or Multi-Dpi Play Store:

Misc Downloads
Themed Deskclock
Multi-dpi Google Play Store (only needed if you plan on changing the default dpi of the ROM - if you don't know what this means, don't bother with it). This is not needed if the Slim GApps is flashed (link above).
4.2 Camera with Photosphere This zip name is camera42patchedv2.zip, does anyone know the creator of it? I can't give proper credit as I downloaded it a while back and don't remember from where.. sorry
4.3 Camera Flash the 4.2 Photosphere zip above and then install this like any other apk. Works great!
Looking for a sound mod?? Check out this excellent how-to for Acid V7 and the Noozxiode by AndrasLOHF.

NOTE: If you have problems with Settings options not showing up when in tablet hybred mode, switch back to normal, adjust your settings, and then switch back. Thanks for temporary fix, Fredgar75. Rootbox is updating their repos with latest Paranoid Android settings, so hopefully this will be fixed shortly. I'll to release an update in the next few days. This is only a problem on hybred mode, the rest of the ROM works great.
3-18-13 -
ROOTBOX: Breathing StatusBar Missed Call notification effect, Dark Root-Box option (gives everything a darker theme look, Volume Status quick setting option, 16:9 resolution ratio for Camera, More Battery Icon options (the speedometer is really cool), and SuperUser is fully integrated into settings with a dark background now.
ME: Switched DeskClock to my darker themed version, should be much more pleasing than the grey/red of stock. Compiled bash and openvpn into ROM from the Cyanogen repo's (for those of you that like commandline tools), it doesn't add much to the overall size of the ROM.
NONE OF JAMIES TWEAKS WERE ADDED TO THIS VERSION. We're both very busy, so I compiled this to hold everyone over. Stay tuned and I'll try to get that done as soon as I can, thanks.
3-9-13 - Breathing StatusBar Messaging notification effect (from Root-Box), fix for hard button long-press (if you experience this, from CM), bash shell (compiled in by me from CM repo)
Bash features:
-Modified login to say "Good Morning", "Good Afternoon" etc, based on the time of day,
-Outputs kernel version, uptime, current time, and who you are logged in as (color coded) at time of login (see pic).
-TERM and TERMINFO variables assigned by default. Nano, htop, etc. will work on every ROM now.
-Custom aliases (quick commands)
diskspace - show you a listing of directories and their size
x - exit
ff - find a file (type the name after ff, i.e "ff Term.apk")
lsd - list only directories
.. - go back one directory
... - go back two directories
... - go back three directories
I recommend you switch the default shell in TERM to use this, (Preferences --> Command Line --> enter "/system/xbin/bash").

** HOW-TO COMPILE THIS YOURSELF **
Here are my notes on how to port Root-Box to our devices, should anyone be interested in compiling their own. I ran into a few headaches when I attempted this, so I’m hoping these notes will save others from that. The point of this tutorial is to teach newbies how to port a ROM, while I could do some things on my end make it easier to compile this ROM, I think it's important to outline all the steps involved in doing this by hand, so the methods may be applied to other ROM ports, not just Root-Box.
I compiled on a Debian Wheezy system, 64bit (squeeze should be the same). A 64-bit computer is required to compile Jellybean (ICS and above for that matter), so don’t attempt this on anything less. If you are unfamiliar with installing Debian, you can use LMDE, it's a live Debian system that you can install with minimal linux knowledge and works pretty nice. However the installation process is pretty easy for vanilla Debian and a good learning process, so give it a shot if you have the time.
Do this all as root
Download dependencies:

Link files:
Code:
ln -s /lib32/libncurses.so.5 /lib32/libncurses.so
or for Ubuntu 10.10:
Code:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/mesa/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib32/mesa/libGL.so
Install Google’s repo script:
Code:
mkdir ~/bin
PATH=~/bin:$PATH
curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod 755 ~/bin/repo
Make your working Directory and start syncing with Root-Box
Code:
mkdir ~/rootbox; cd ~/rootbox
repo init -u https://github.com/Root-Box/platform_manifest.git -b jb-mr1
repo sync
Create a local_manifests file with Cyanogenmods sources for our phone and kernel (thanks to Deck’s work). This is porting part.
Code:
mkdir ~/rootbox/.repo/local_manifests
echo ‘<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_jewel" path="device/htc/jewel" remote="gh" revision="cm-10.1" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_msm8960-common" path="device/htc/msm8960-common" remote="gh" revision="cm-10.1" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_s4-common" path="device/htc/s4-common" remote="gh" revision="cm-10.1" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_kernel_htc_msm8960" path="kernel/htc/msm8960" remote="gh" revision="cm-10.1" />
<project name="TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_htc" path="vendor/htc" remote="gh" revision="cm-10.1" />
</manifest>’ > ~/rootbox/.repo/local_manifests/jewel.xml
Sync the repo again
Code:
repo sync
Create your device file for Root-Box (adapted from CM’s cm.mk file):
Code:
echo ‘$(call inherit-product, vendor/rootbox/configs/common.mk)
$(call inherit-product, vendor/rootbox/configs/cdma.mk)
# Enhanced NFC
#$(call inherit-product, vendor/cm/config/nfc_enhanced.mk)
# Inherit device configuration
$(call inherit-product, device/htc/jewel/jewel.mk)
# Device naming
PRODUCT_DEVICE := jewel
PRODUCT_NAME := rootbox_jewel
PRODUCT_BRAND := htc
PRODUCT_MODEL := EVO
PRODUCT_MANUFACTURER := HTC
# Set build fingerprint / ID / Product Name ect.
PRODUCT_BUILD_PROP_OVERRIDES += PRODUCT_NAME=htc_jewel BUILD_ID=JRO03C BUILD_FINGERPRINT="htc/jewel/jewel:4.1.1/JRO03C/147243.3:user/release-keys" PRIVATE_BUILD_DESC="3.16.651.3 CL147243 release-keys"
# Release name
PRODUCT_RELEASE_NAME := jewel
# Boot animation
TARGET_SCREEN_HEIGHT := 1280
TARGET_SCREEN_WIDTH := 720
# PA OVERLAY_TARGET
OVERLAY_TARGET := pa_jewel
# Copy compatible prebuilt files
PRODUCT_COPY_FILES += \
vendor/rootbox/prebuilt/bootanimation/bootanimation_1280_720.zip:system/media/bootanimation.zip
-include vendor/rootbox/configs/common_versions.mk’ > ~/rootbox/vendor/rootbox/products/jewel.mk
edit /vendor/rootbox/products/AndroidProducts.mk and add a \ to the last line and then add $(LOCAL_DIR)/jewel.mk under that. So every line but the last ends in “\”. It should look something like this at the end of the file when done.
$(LOCAL_DIR)/toro.mk \
$(LOCAL_DIR)/t0lte.mk \
$(LOCAL_DIR)/jewel.mk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then add our device to the vendorsetup.sh file
Code:
echo “add_lunch_combo rootbox_jewel-userdebug” >> ~/rootbox/vendor/rootbox/vendorsetup.sh
Now, lets create the PA defaults for the per-app-dpi and hybrid settings. It will build and look fine with these xhdpi defaults, but I suggest you look over the pa_jewel.conf at least, here is where you can change the defaults for how apps and settings will look. Setting the "com.android.systemui.navbar.dpi" to "0" is a good idea since we have hardware buttons (but it's a person preference).
Code:
cp ~/rootbox/vendor/rootbox/pa_xhdpi.conf ~/rootbox/vendor/rootbox/pa_jewel.conf
cp -r ~/rootbox/vendor/rootbox/preferences/pa_xhdpi ~/rootbox/vendor/rootbox/preferences/pa_jewel
remove a conflicting file:
Code:
/device/htc/msm8960-common/overlay/packages/apps/Settings/res/values/arrays.xml
OPTIONAL: lets add the "Reboot Bootloader" to our reboot menu:
Code:
echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources xmlns:xliff="urn:oasis:names:tc:xliff:document:1.2">
<!-- reboot options -->
<string-array name="reboot_options">
<item>@string/reboot</item>
<item>@string/reboot_recovery</item>
<item>@string/reboot_bootloader</item>
</string-array>
<!-- reboot values -->
<string-array name="reboot_values">
<item></item>
<item>recovery</item>
<item>bootloader</item>
</string-array>
</resources>' > ~/root/rootbox/device/htc/s4-common/overlay/framework/base/core/res/res/values/arrays.xml
now we build our environment:
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
build your new ROM for our device:
Code:
. build_rootbox.sh jewel `grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l`
(the last part can be a number instead of the "grep command", it's how many cpu cores you have)
when finished, it’ll be located in ~/rootbox//out/target/product/jewel/
NOTE: If later on, you get a problem when trying to do a repo sync because of files wanting to be overridden, take note of the files. They are most likely the ones we edited to add the jewel device (~/rootbox/vendor/rootbox/products/AndroidProducts.mk, or /vendor/rootbox/vendorsetup.sh), delete them, and re-add the changes back after the sync is done. This will only happen if those files get updated on the git repo. The cleaner way to do this is to fork these to your own git repo and update them from there, however this tutorial is to teach you how to port ROMs, so we are doing it manually here. Let me know if you see any errors and I’ll update this.
EXTRAS:
Compile Bash Shell into ROM:
add two lines into your ~/.repo/local_manifests/jewel.xml so it looks like this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_jewel" path="device/htc/jewel" remote="gh" revision="cm-10.1" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_msm8960-common" path="device/htc/msm8960-common" remote="gh" revision="cm-10.1" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_s4-common" path="device/htc/s4-common" remote="gh" revision="cm-10.1" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_kernel_htc_msm8960" path="kernel/htc/msm8960" remote="gh" revision="cm-10.1" />
<project name="TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_htc" path="vendor/htc" remote="gh" revision="cm-10.1" />
<!-- add patched bash -->
<project name="mikshepard/android_external_bash" path="external/bash" remote="gh" revision="cm-10.1" />
</manifest>
and edit your ~/device/htc/jewel/jewel.mk and add the following to it (somewhere in the middle is fine):
Code:
Extra Commondline Tools
PRODUCT_PACKAGES += \
bash
Compile with GCC 4.7
This is a bit more complicated and should not be attempted until you are comfortable with the above, some debugging may be required.
Add this line to your ~/device/htc/s4-common/BoardConfigCommon.mk
Code:
# Use GCC 4.7
TARGET_GCC_VERSION := 4.7
now you need to adjust your TARGET_linux-arm.mk to use some different cflags otherwise you will not be able to connect to the camera. This has been adapted from the work by jrior001 and SlimROMS. Just adjust your ~/build/combo/TARGET_linux-arm.mk to match the following:
https://github.com/mikshepard/android_build/blob/416eae1fb70fcab3b9075fc44699ec2f7d2799f8/core/combo/TARGET_linux-arm.mk
I suggest you look at the comments in there to understand what is being changed.
Now build like normal. PM me if you have problems.
TIP:
If you are into building, checkout my acompile script in my signature, it'll email you when your build is complete using Gmail's snmp and will include the time it took and the last few lines of the output. I find it very useful for knowing when my build is done (especially since they take me about 3+ hours apiece)

This page helped a lot with a great tutorial on building ROMS
This forum is filled with great people who others with the building of ROMS. A great source when you run into errors you don’t understand.
Hope this helps someone,

On a side note, I don’t use the PIE function of this ROM. It seems redundant, as we have the hardware buttons, on our phone. I use LMT instead, so I can have the PIE clock and notifications but apps instead of buttons for the actual PIE. That said, I’ve been interested in trying out porting the LiquidSmooth ROM to our phone, I think it has most of the same features as Root-Box and a few other things, and no PIE built in. The errors it’s throwing out during compiling are a bit beyond my knowledge. Any interested in lending a hand? PM me, it’s just for fun and learning mostly.

It's just a later build from source, which is upgraded to Android 4.2.2 and should have better bluetooth, faster Gallery operation, security fixes, etc. The Root-Box source has a few changes (updated MMS, integrated Superuser, some fixes to the Status Bar transparency, etc). Also, the kernel's been updated with Deck's fixes, so 1080dp video recording and notification light (solid only) is working. That's all, might be enough for others to upgrade, might not
Hope this helps,

Re: Unoffical Root-Box (AOSP Android 4.2.2)
CM based. Not AOSP.
And thank kushdeck for bringing CM not "AOSP" (Spelled wrong in OP).
Evervolv is the closest to AOSP we have.
Either way thank you for your contribution. Dont knock yourself so much in your OP :thumbup:
Good work Mike!

I updated the OP to credit Deck for CM instead of AOSP. As for the ROM, while this build is based off of the CM kernel, Root-Box builds takes the AOSP source and adds some features from CM and AOKP, plus adds their own. I did update the OP to reflect this as well. Thanks for catching these errors, I appreciate the help.

Man this is great I've been running Jamie's build since it dropped and love can't wait to try this out and get a peek of what's to come with this ROM

I dirty flashed this on top of jamieg71's and it works smoothly

---

OP updated with next nightly, this adds an option to RootBox settings for a "Breathing SMS" which is a effect added to the StatusBar icon for messaging notifications, thanks to the RootBox devs. Also, if you experience the hard-buttons getting stuck on long-press ever (only happened once to me), there was an update to the CM repo to fix this. I also compiled bash shell into this from the CM repo.
I updated the how-to if anyone wants to try this themselves.
Cheers,
Mike

Re: Unoffical Root-Box Nightly (JB 4.2.2)
I can't wait to try this! I've had such bad luck with Dhost lately. Been trying to DL AOKP for the last week on different WiFi connections and 3g even. Now this :banghead:
Really lookin forward to it, thanks, mike. :thumbup:
Edit: does this have the MMS apk with 'reply' and 'read' from notification panel? I have the MMS apk that does, if this doesn't, but I suspect using it would mess up the breathing SMS you mention.
From my Evo LTE, yup.

Thanks! this rom is nice!
But, does anyone know how to get the "menu" working? For example google play I cant hit menu and select "my apps". And also ES file explorer I cant figure out how to get the menu so i can modify the settings.

Re: Unoffical Root-Box Nightly (JB 4.2.2)
Is it not in Settings>System>Hardware Keys on root box? Also, at the bottom (if its there) should be a button that says three dot overflow. Sorry, I'm just guessing, I haven't been able to get this downloaded yet.
From my Evo LTE, yup.
