This is being released for TESTING PURPOSES ONLY. This is not intended to be a full release.
This is an SD Card release ONLY, if you want to flash the entire phone, visit the original thread. Beyond that, the build is 100% unchanged from the 7/10/2010 release of Incubus26Jc's Super FroYo 2.2 [Deodexed] [RLS10] - this is not the all languages release, just the standard RLS10 as downloadable from here.
All original information is in Incubus' original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=712310
I may just be being impatient, but this froze up on me a couple of times right after completing setup and beginning sync. Still, I have been able to fully install, boot the phone through HaRET, get text messages, and a little more. I've barely had much time to test this, but it's a step above your traditional proof of concept, so try it out!
Note, this release is not intended to either show up Incubus26Jc, nor claim his work as my own. I simply made the conversion and RAR'd it up. I'm sure Incubus26Jc chooses not to make an SDCard version available for his own reases and possibly doesn't want his name associated for whatever reason, I didn't clear this release in advance, and if requested, I will delete the thread.

I actually bought a few pieces of software to do the conversion, but I figured a few bucks was worth it for something fun like this. Although, if anybody would like to donate a few bucks to the cause, PM me and I can get you my paypal address.

What exactly did you "convert"? And what software did you need? From first glance it just looks like you just threw the tar in with all the sdcard files found in other builds. The extracted tar and tgz are the same size... and you said that it's 100% the same thing... so why do we need a separate thread for this? Just ask Incubus if he could add the andboot files in a separate download in the original thread...
Well, in most basic terms all I did was convert the TGZ to a TAR, then grabbed the necessary HaRET files - but after this many releases, Incubus has intentionally had no SDCard version of his releases, so I just thought I'd toss this one out there for those like me who were interested in trying his latest release, but don't want to completely make the switch to Android and just like running it through WinMo.

I read a post a while back by dzo on incubus' thread that in order to boot the TGZ from HaRet, you need to modify something in the default.txt (add a couple of lines in the cmd). Thanks for this though...

I am using Androidinstall.tgz files. Just install it to the SD card using the norootfs method that has been used for a while. His builds aren't anti-SD card from what I can tell...
Thanks for the kind words, EGZ. Wasn't trying to take any attention away from Incubus at all, I just wanted to tinker with it, myself, which was why I released it! I don't really intend to keep up with future releases, unless people actually want me to continue.
And the reason I had to spend money is because I don't currently have a single Linux machine in my place, and WinRAR doesn't make TAR files.
NuAngel
Do I understand this correctly?
Are you basically just wanting to install the Incubus FroYo build on the SD card? I was unsure about the exact method to do this as well. Here are the steps I followed to make it happen.
I think I did something similar to what you are doing here, except the convert the tgz to tar. All I did was take the tgz file and rename the extension to tar. No zipped or rar file program needed. Then I grabbed the basic haret files from Myn's eclair along with the updated zImage file. I threw it all in the andboot dir on the SD card. Everything installed just fine. Is this what you are trying to accomplish?
Vivafutbol - yup, pretty much the same process - I just never expected renaming the TGZ to TAR to work - they're similar fromats, but not identical... surprised it worked!
Still, if anyone is interested in checking it out, they can download it from the link above, no need to do any work.

There is no need to spend money for what you did. TGZ is just a gzipped TAR file and many freeware archivers can extract TAR from TGZ - like 7-Zip http://www.7-zip.org/ ..
Also, HaRET can handle TGZ..

Doesn't HaRET just boot the zImage? Then in the kernel is where you would activate the system image like in the old days, or the adroidinstall.tar or tgz?
Forget I tried.
Oh, and 7-Zip will extract TGZ's - but the TGZ had folders in it, not another TAR file - thus getting those folders back in to a TAR required another piece of software - 7Zip doesn't create tar files.
It's okay, it was like $10. I didn't expect this to become the focal point of the ROM. Jesus.

It's great that you tried. You won't get the experience unless you do try.
The only problem I have with all of this is that you indirectly asked if people would donate to you. You couldve done a little research and found out that you didnt need to spend any money.
I'm not trying to attack you, you just couldve went about it differently. Asked Incubus if he could host it in the original thread (and at least given you credit), or if he would mind if you opened a new thread. I'm not speaking for him but I'm sure he would'nt have mind.
Again, I think it's great that you tried this on your own. We need more people like that in this community.

I did it manually as well, and I didn't even rename the .tgz to .tar
I admit I had to hunt around for some files, so this does help, thank you
Its not my rom either. Its dzo's rom. I just done a few things to it. The reason i never put up sd install files in the roms is because of all the problems people usually have until they flash nand and all is better. I can put the haret files on the OP if you would like. No harm done buddy.
I saw your windows rom but haven't tried it yet because i'm still using nfsfan. Apreciate someone new taking an interest in vogue. Also I did flash froyo to my sd card but did have to read quite a bit. I am sure I would have appreciated being spoon fed. Thanks.
Since the last few posts have been pretty positive, one thing I might work on is slapping in an updated zImage file, since I did use a slightly olde one to try and boost stability (those who know my Windows Mobile ROM know that's my central focus).

Also, the initrd.gz is very old (Maybe before the .tgz support was implemented). Try using THIS ONE (taken from HERE) with the tgz to see if it works.
I hope you did not take my post on the negative side. At the very least this thread has created some good conversation about how these files actually work together. I did have to search around for a while to get an understanding of which files should be used.
I personally like the SD version of the builds, because I don't have the guts to wipe out the windows install and risk breaking this great little device.

I am a software developer by trade and so I hope I will be comfortable with creating my own ROM. However, I have no idea where to begin! Can anyone point me in the right direction?

you need a kitchen, in the kitchen you unpack a ROM image, you then exchange, remove or add files to the extracted ROM image. then you repack it. thats it. no programming skills involved.
and all information regarding kitchens can be found in the wiki, I did at least.

I have Hard-SPL'ed my X1 and am ready for a new ROM now. I have downloaded a NBH file and used the NBHUtil to unpack it. Is this the point at which I customise the individual parts? If so what do I use to do this with the NB files?
NBHUtil is not a kitchen, its a utility only. And NB files are just the components of the NBH file, like a NB for the radio part, a NB for the OS part, a NB for ... you get the idea. The actual contents (exe, dll, eg.: files that ARE windows mobile) are encoded inside the NB's.
Search for "RaphaelKitchen" version 0.62, download that. Once you got that far, get back in here and I'll give you the config files you'll need for the RaphaelKitchen.
Instructions on how to do what: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427507
In that message, leave out the parts about dumping and get directly to the instructions for the kitchen. The actual "cooking" (thats what its called, hence its called a kitchen) comes between instructions "e, b (for dumped ROM),space key" cuz now you just unpacked the ROM and you have tons and tons of DLLs, EXEs, eg.: you unpacked the NBH in NBs and decoded the NBs to its contents.
You cook by removing and adding stuff to the respective folders.
After you did that, continue by following the post: "c, a, press BuildOS Play icon and wait to finish, Close BuildOS, close PagePool Changer and press space" which equals putting the files back together and compiling a new NBH which you can flash...
and i'm sorry but the WIKI acutally REALLY does explain all that:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser ROM Kitchen Tutorial
The RaphaelKitchen is a modified version of alex kitchen for the kaiser, it is essentially exactly the same.
Cheers Schaggo!
I was looking at the Xperia Wiki not the main Wiki My bad sorry.
I'll give this a go later and report back
No problem, no problem. As I said, as you start cooking, get back in here and I'll provide pre-edited config files with all the settings for the X1.

Hi, could you provide the pre-edited config files for X1? Thanks.
Ok so here's what I have done:
Download and unpacked RaphaelKitchen 0.62 as stated.
Ran it with 'e' then 'a' as the command line parameter to extract the NB files again (just to see).
Found all the NB files in BaseROM folder and a sh*tload of mixed files in the temp folder. At the root I have a couple of BIN files as well as some NB related files. dump_imgfs and dump_xip are the main folders in there with lots of bits beneath then. Is this right?
Then ran the build ROM commands as you stated. Pagepool wasn't open though(?) or couldn't see it anyway. Everything else went to plan and I got a NBH file in the end.
I expected the packages folder to be populated but nothing went in. Has this all gone to plan?
**Edit: Also never saw PagePool **
Here is the extra config you need for X1
Extract and put the files in the root of the RaphaelKitchen.
Run "X1Kitchen.CMD".
This is what I am using for "e"xtract and "c"ook a room and it's working perfectly w/ me. Other options is not tested or use by me.
I even added/modded some more files. Replace all files and run RaphaelKitchen.cmd and continue as instructed in the manual.
Cheers guys. Will try this config tonight and get back to you
In the extract ROM there are two options:
- one needs RUU_signed.nbh only
- the other one needs RUU_signed.nbh + part01.raw and part02.raw
which is the right one to choose? if b): where do i get those files?
/edit: never mind, figured it out myself
Flashing now :-D
For future reference, if some more people ask:
if you just want to unpack an existing ROM image (nbh-file) use option 1. this unpacks the file and fills up the folders with the files to cook with.
if you want to reconstruct a ROM you (or someone else) dumped from his device, chose option 2. this decodes the raw-files (dumps) according to (simply spoken, please forgive my inaccuracy ) the template which is given by the nbh-file. without the nbh-file the kitchen doesnt know how to decode the raw-files, it needs a reference file (the nbh) to do so.

I want to get original Mobile Opera 9.5 from R2AA UK Generic ROM, because some other version of opera overwritten it and I don't want it - just need original one back.
Check this thread in Development and Hacking, a tool to view files inside nbh ROM files: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377514
Thanks! It helped. Is it also a way of cooking a new custom rom?
Edit:
I exported the file... but its "hidden" without option to make it visible. How to make it normally visible?
I'd really kick back, make yourself a couple of weeks worth of coffee and read, read read and then read some more.
There's quite a lot in the wiki on how to cook roms, which serves as a good start but to do it properly it will help to know some of the background to what you're doing.
Hence the reading.
FWIW I've just started playing with ervius visual multilang kitchen, it's quite nice, much better than some of the others. Do a search on it if you want to find it and try visualkitchen_v2_1
Of course it's a bit worrying that you want to cook your own roms, without knowing what's inside the one you're using.
IF you want the opera from r2aa and you're using a stock unmodified R2aa then look in windows (using a proper file explorer such total commander)
or use the search on here, as the one I posted has been linked a huge amount of times already, including 3 times in the past 2 days. .

It's been a long time since I've posted a new build to the forum please go easy on me I've been a behind the scenes guy lately
So everyone's probably seen the extensive changes we did to the initrd. If not find them in this post here. We've removed the rootfs completely. And setup an amazing new install menu, this was all vilord and if anyone deserves a donation it's him. This means that no older builds with work with this until they've been updated. We're going to post a new thread with instructions to create a compatible system. These builds are both setup for 320x480 resolution, however it is very easy now to change stuff. So if on windows download 7zip, open the tar file with zip, than open the build.prop and change the LCD Density accordingly. Save the changes and when prompted add the changed file back in.
instructions
unrar the file and copy the androidinstall.tar so a folder on your sdcard called andboot.
Build 1.
Eclair 2.1 Vogue edition;
Features;
Working Audio
Working GPS
Partially working bluetooth (I've some kernel updates to finish I think)
Full sleep support
Customized Animated Wallpapers for our phones, I rewritten the app to use lower resolutions, less sprites and lowered other features. As well I've optimized the images to make them use ALOT less ram. I am still working on this app so watch this thread for updates for the livewallpapers. As example I've fixed, but not yet included the galaxy wallpaper, and made more progress on water.. But I've got to post this sometime
It's a little slow to start but runs great once it's up and running.
What doesn't work
Camera, that's next on the list of libs to work on.
Some of the animated wallpapers don't work and the grass one is way too big still.
While the audio in works, things like the voice search and voicekeyboard don't tend to get the right words. There's been some fun ones come up
Bluetooth syncs with my headset but I get no sound. Please let me know if it's the same for you. I believe there's more to do to the libs to get bluetooth working properly.
Additional Info
It's a little slow to start up because I'm making sure all the apps are optimized on every boot. Maps isn't included, so you can update it.

This is just a port of an older WesG build from the dream forums. It's rock solid stable with no issues, again though you have to enter your own apn information. I haven't yet applied the BT fix yet, but as the system is so easy to work with now anyone can do it

To people getting the "freeze at A N D R O I D"
You need to hold down VOLUME UP and install the system. That wasn't made super clear anywhere. Otherwise it'll just try to boot whatever you've got on there and fail because it doesn't have the former rootfs files in the /system.
Also, @msssmision, the tar file is still goofy (7-Zip's fault?) - GNU tar gets a lot of "skipping to next header" and then exits with an error code.

I have done the steps below and have created the services.jar with the uncapped data mod. I used the steps given by BThomas22x.
First make sure you do a nandroid backup!
Flash the zip in recovery and then all should be well.

You are voluntarily flashing this at your own risk. I can not be held accountable for anything you choose to do on your own. If you try to blame me, I will laugh at you. ....While pointing.
..::..Data Service Governer Killer..::..
1. What does this do?
This is a modification to the services.jar framework file, that allows you to have an un-throttled internet.
2. Will this make my internet faster?
Yes and No. This will not "Upgrade" your internet. This only takes the trottle off, so you can download, or play games and not have to worry about it hitting a certain peak and lagging from that point on. It doesn't provide you with a new internet, only a warm fuzzy feeling from knowing you don't have to worry about it capping off.
3. If I flash this, will it break my phone?
If it did, yours would be the first case I heard of. I've personally flashed it NUMEROUS times.
4. Will this work on any ROM?
Yes. This is not based off a particular ROM, and can be used with ANY EVO ROM. ALTHOUGH If you're Dev has made changes to the services.jar file, this could wipe those changes out. If you are unsure, send me your services.jar file, and i will look for you. Hopefully, i'll be able to make a download list in a couple days with all the Dev's services.jar files, so you can download that specific one. You can always ask your Dev.
5. Do I have to be rooted?
Yes. In order to be able to flash this, you are going to need to have root with a custom recovery. I.E. Amon_Ra.
..::..Install Instructions..::..
Simply download, and place on the root of your sdcard. Then go into recovery and flash it as you would a ROM. Done.

Data Service Governer Killer
..::ALTERNATIVELY::..
You can follow this method if you're Services.jar framework is already modified, or if you aren't sure.
1. Download these 2 files:
Smali_Baksmali
2. Create 2 folders on your C: Drive labeled "Smali" and "Baksmali". (This is for easy access to the folders when being cd'd)
3. Place the 2 downloaded files in the C: Drive folders accordingly. (I.E. Smali.jar in "Smali" folder, and Baksmali.jar in "Baksmali" folder.)
4. Using 7zip or WinRAR (or any other zip program) open the services.jar file that you pulled from your phone. Copy the "classes.dex" file and paste it into the "Baksmali" folder.
5. Open your command prompt and type the following:
cd C:/Baksmali
java -Xmx512M -jar baksmali.jar -o classes/ classes.dex
6. Open the newly created "classes" folder (its inside your Baksmali folder that you should already be in) and navigate through "/com/android/server/". Scroll down till you see the 6 or 7 "Throttle" files. They will be located between "TelephonyRegistry" and "TVCableObserver$1$1". DELETE ONLY THE "THROTTLE" FILES.
7. Back out of the folders until you are in the "Baksmali" folder again. Now open the "Smali" folder you created earlier. Place the "classes" FOLDER in the "Smali" folder.
8. Return to your command prompt and type this:
cd C:/Smali
java -Xmx512M -jar smali.jar -o classes.dex classes/
9. You should now see a "classes.dex" file in your "Smali" folder. This is the NEW compiled services.jar classes.dex file. Pull up the 7zip or WinRAR file you had open earlier, delete the current classes.dex file from the services.jar, and place the newly compiled one in it's place.
10. Place the services.jar file back into your ROM, and boot up. You are now running Unthrottled.
11. If you do not see the "Throttle" files, don't complain they're not there, your Dev may have already taken them out.
What this mod will do for you:

It will NOT help you avoid overage charges.
For example let's say you're on a 250mb a month plan. This mod only ensures that you will get 250mb at unrestrcited speeds. Going over 250mb will still result in an overage charge.
Also, the reason people keep referring to 5gb on their "unlimited" plan is because Verizon starts to throttle data speeds after 5gb of data. That doesn't mean you get charged more, Verizon just slows you down. This mod will prevent that, and only that.
I hope that clears things up.

so does this mean that 2.XX's are not "uncapped"
I don't know how everyone else feels but I don't think these data throttle mods deserve separate threads. They are very simple mods and take about two minutes to make. I feel these mods should be posted in the thread for whatever ROM is applied to.

by default no. i dont think to highly of it breaking a menu in the settings.. not to mention all this capped data is just speculations..
IHTFP came up with a way to do this without the FC's. You also modify the phone apk. Magnolia ROM has done this as well.

The reason I made it was for people would couldn't make it or wanted to attempt making it. And whether it should be included the rom forum or not. I didn't want questions people had over this to flood the ROMs thread.

Hey let me know if you figure out how to do this mod without the force closes. That would be awesome-
Quick question for those who have flashed this. Has anyone noticed less battery life?

didn't notice anythign to heavy?
There has been a lot of discussion on what works on ClockWorkMod v3 and what doesn't. One of the biggest problems (besides ROM installations) is how to apply existing ZIP files that don't work in CWM3 because they are outdated.
So, if you have upgraded to CWM v3 and want to use some old zips there is an answer
nubecoder in the Android Development and Hacking > Android Software Development forum came up with an excellent tool for converting the old update-script to the new updater-scrip and binary needed for CWM3
Give it a look:

Extract the zip to a folder. Run it. Select open then the zip or script you want to convert. then save it.
Great find Nils. I guess I need to convert mine.
EDIT: It converted them all perfectly, once I realized I needed to choose "Incredible" from the device menu. LOL
If you want an alternative to using the script converter I attached 2 zip files. One is for updates to the /system/app/ folder and the other is /system/framework/ folder
All you need to do is use 7zip to copy (drag and drop) your files to the appropriate sub folder in the zip file.
You can then name the zip file to whatever you like.
Sorry to muck up the thread with this question but since it's on topic... how do i flash back to the old version of CWM? since rom manager just comes up with an error...
nevermind I got one of the older 2.5 to work
This app was updated just this morning with the option to convert scripts for the incredible. I've tried it on a few zips and it works perfect

I agree, if Trimble would embrace Linux I could avoid windowz for the rest of my life...
