I've been running Scotts DMC ROM for a while now. I see that there are some ROMs out that are based off DMF.
The little research I did said that this is a Portuguese ROM ( I guess).
Are there any known benefits/issues with the DMF base?
Thanks,
Matt
Something I've found out about DMF2, and why im staying away from it.

Does this affect custom roms built on dmf2? Dunno, but why risk it.

I would bet good money that anything to do with modifying the EFS partition is ripped out of the ROMs for our phone, it wouldn't make sense to leave that in there.

Eugene373 makes some pretty good roms, look in the development section. The latest one is the hybrid, no touchwiz at all, just a hint of it in the ui.

I'll agree Eugene's ROMs are awesome....I am on V9 with JAC 1.2 kernel.

I guess when they are done by the developers that are creating them, or you could take up the task yourself and contribute to the community.
I think there is PLENTY of discussion about 2.2 and roms for the Vibrant please do some searching before creating yet another thread about this, we have beat this topic to death we are all in the same boat!
running eugene's Hybrid R3 and lagfix. Runs great, gets rid of most touch wiz. Only way I would be happier is if it was based on 2.2 but in time that will come too.

There seems to be confusion about posting ROMs in General or Developers section. I just reported a post and fjasked that a "stock" ROM be moved from the Dev section to the General section because recently another Stock ROM was in fact moved with the reason that all stock ROMs belong in General. The response to my report was "this is a tough call I ll move it but it could stay in dev". So, that is a very non-committal answer from a mod. In addition, this post, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1184817, is an example of previous guidance on the subject. It clearly states that the Dev section is "only meant for very advanced technical discussion directly related to ROM development activity and the delivery of actual ROMs and ROM components ONLY". I would agree with this guidance. Can we stop differentiating between stock and no-stock ROMs and place ALL ROMs in the Dev section, as stated in the above guidance? Thank you for you work and time. XDA is a great place. I am not whining or complaining. I am merely asking for clarification of this issue so we can move on.
sec
um, your "question" for clarification belongs in the Q section. Not General.
Also, reading the Dev section I think it is pretty clear that it is for rom development only.
Stock roms aren't development...in this case it's a link to a leaked rom. that's it...doesn't belong in development.
So, if the Mod moved it to General it was done correctly.

I been on here for some time across at least 6 phones, and I've never heard of such or seen this done.
It should be like how normal 90% of XDA works!
ROM/Kernels in Dev no matter if its stock or custom! That's it no argument! I had only three phone couple of tablets but whatever forum i went to. THis is the theory they followed! Very simple idk what's big deal about it! IDK why this ppl don't like that!

Your first sentence made me lol. You're right but I thought maybe since it was asking about the General then it could go in the General. Maybe it will be moved. Whatever.
Your second point is the crux of my question. If you read the guidance that I referenced it does not discriminate against stock ROMs. All ROMs are development, as are all kernels and other code. Code can be developed, whether it is stock code or other. Or at least that what I think.
I am anxious to see what the Moderators have to say. They have been very quiet on this issue.

I agree with you, I've been here a while , thru a span of of six devices forums myself also(htc excalibur-tmo dash/htc tilt-kaiser/htc fuze-raphael/the first android OG "htc dream-Tmobile G1"/htc leo/hd2) and now here and all roms have always been in the rom development section, even stock roms that serve as base for custom roms are part of development .
I have been frequenting this site since my PPC6600 and all ROMs official or otherwise have been in a development section of some type. That goes back 5 + years (a very long time in tech years)
I don't know if that means anything to anyone, but us old guys don't like change =P.

From ***Development Only Here - All Others Will Be Locked/Deleted!*** stickied at the top of the Development forum.
This forum is for posting Development projects only - ROMs, Kernels, Mods (but not Themes, there's a separate forum for them), not stock ROMs (they belong in General). Anything else will be moved or locked. Do not ask questions here, do not post requests here, they belong in General.

Stock ROMs belong in General according to the rules. Not sure if they are enforced or not though.
I dunno why they changed the rule. Is it specific for AT&T Galaxy Note or in general? Because at least Captivate/i9000/i9100 section have 'stock ROM list' sticky on development section.

But is a "leaked" Rom to be considered stock? Phones don't ship with them....
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Leaked ROMs are still not something you made thus you aren't developing them, thus why would the go in development? I understand why people would want to put them there, but according to the rules, its not where they belong.
I really can't stand this! IF you really want to get this changed plz comment and let me know! Because i just don't like how this is going!

Lol, my vote would ba a mod (or eager poster) should compile one sticky of all stock and leaked roms into one sticky which can be posted at the top of the development section.

ACTUALLY, this post doesn't belong in Q&A...
It belongs in the MAIN GENERAL section... I'm just saying...
LOL
but yeah, the idea is stupid. they should change the rules...
Lol, who the hell cares? Just post it in one of the two and if a mod feels like moving it, let him. Personally I think any rom of any type should all go in one section so they're easy to find... but I'm not gonna cry about it if the mod wants it in general.
hey guys do you have any cwm file for the stock TW? i dunno what happened but i was on RevoHD v6 and i found in the kitchen pro this TW mod.. i downloaded it and installed it with CWM. but i couldn't do any mods on the launcher like i couldn't add widgets on the homescreen and etc.. i reset everything to square 1 and still TW's f*cked up.. please help? any link?

Does this look absolutely anything like a request, general or questions section to you?
Think about it for 1 second, what would this section look like if this kind of topic was allowed, answer is it would be a complete mess and you would have to trail through a sea of crap to get to the roms/kernels etc.
This sections is for developments, not help requests, app requests, or anything else completely unrelated to development, Its for ROMS/KERNELS/MODS/REF etc only.
If you want to post this type of topic do it in the appropriate section(s). Its really irritating when people who have subscribed to this forum get stupid topics like this emailed to them.
Please turn brain on an read the forum titles.
Well im sorry and i apologize if turned my brain off k?

Well thats just been sexist.
Doesn't make a difference what your sex is, you should still have common sense enough to put questions in questions forum, general discussion in general etc. Its obvious if you take a few seconds to look that the Dev section re for releases/mods and reference etc.
Tbh I blame XDA for this aswell because they could restrict posting rights for dev forums more per post count or usergroup.

It's not actually sexism if it's a principle that should be applied equally to both sexes (though the wording ephraim used wasn't exactly to that effect, but hopefully you get my point). There is a certain sense of irony when you remind someone of the rules in an inflammatory way, and so break the rules yourself.
It was a simple mistake, an accidental posting in a forum that has squillions of subforums. It happens.
Anyway, OP's question has been answered. Bluefa1con's advice sounds fairly easy, especially if you already have a stock zip lying around.

It wasn't an accident. An accident would be if they meant to post in a specific section but didn't realize they was in a different one when clicking post.
Users are just simply choosing to posting in dev section instead of taking seconds to work out that they shouldn't, That isn't an accident, its just pure laziness.
XDA needs some sort of structure in place like increasing the post count restriction, retro applying it to older members who signed up before they started imposing or restricting posting to recognized devs only. Any non recognized devs could put forward a topic which could be moved into dev section.
Allowing basically anybody to post anything in dev sections just pollutes the forum and annoys people who subscribe and get emails about "howz me flash me fone" topics (not referring to this topic, just general).
Now that we are fully unlocked has anyone tried flashing an att or international rom? Do you get service?
i was going to flash a tmobile variant i have here but i see most roms have a kernal in them

Does it matter if it has a kernal? Aren't they interchangeable? they were on the s3.
I would strongly advise against it for now. Let the dust settle a bit before doing something like that. In a week tops you'll have some good information out there on what your options are when it comes to ROMs.

i agree with DaRkL3AD3R modules need to be switched to make sure we have no issues, at the most i say wait till monday and we might even have parinoid android
You need a lot more than just modules and libs changed most likely. I know it is a world phone, but odds are, you are going to need framework changes as well to get them to work. If you don't know how to test, then don't flash it. Wait until someone that knows how to at least debug things tries it before testing yourself and turning your phone into a paperweight.

I've seen in several ROM threads for various ROMs the mention of Pie, and I have flashed ROMs and custom recoveries, and I recently got the SGS4 so I thought I'd post it here. What is Pie, and what's the purpose of modifying it? Thanks.

If it's the same Pie I'm thinking of (I don't own a GS4) then it's an app/launcher that allows you to touch a point on the side of your screen and a "pie" looking app launcher (think Sidebar) pops up. Google LMT Launcher, that's the Pie I'm thinking of. But of course, I could be way off.

Sorry, now for a serious answer.
Pie is a feature of custom roms such as aokp and cyanogenmod. It is an onscreen button style feature. (Google for more Info)
A similar feature can be found in the app LMT (search xda)
Shortest path to understanding....Google image search android pie!
