Yet Another Stock ROM.
Version 1.1
Over The Air. (LEAKED)
Version 1.2
Welcome. This ROM is based off the stock ROM that came with the Incredible. It's very similar to various other stock ROMs with a few tweaks and things left in. My aim with this ROM was to clean up the stock ROM, leaving in some useful apps and provide a good base for themers and modders.
Current YASR Users: see latest patches at the bottom for bug fixes.
ROM Information:
Based on HTC stock ROM with most HTC apps removed. See below for app information.
The entire ROM is deodexed. This will allow the framework files to be modifed or replaced for themes.
The HTC lockscreen has been removed. The default 2.1 lockscreen is enabled.
The lockscreen can now be unlocked by using the d-pad click (NOT AWOKEN, you still must use power to wake the screen). This replaces the unlock via menu button.
The kernel is the default stock kernel with no modifications other than to enable root. I suggest using the very awesome Hydra kernels if you would like a different one.
The default wireless driver is installed (No 802.11n). (Again, see Hydra)
App Information:
LauncherPro is included. (Due the breakneck speed of the dev on LP, be sure to update this)
Superuser.apk and wireless tether are installed by default.
Most HTC apps have been removed with the exception of the following: Mail, Calendar, MMS, VVM, Photos, Browser, Camera, Calculator, Contacts and Phone.
All Exchange services (EAS) are left in. HTC has by far the best implementation for EAS and it is included for those who use it.
Facebook for HTC Sense and Backup Assistant are left for those that use them. If you want to use Facebook for HTC Sense to sync your contacts, you MUST download Facebook from the Market and sign in using the application before you set it up in Accounts.
YouTube has been updated to the EVO version.
Due to default lockscreen, the vanilla 2.1 clock is included instead of HTC's Clock.
Current Bugs/Known Issues
USB plugged-in behavior cannot be changed. Uncheck "Ask Me" under Settings > Connect to PC. Unplug/replug the USB. Use the notification bar to change the mode. I'm STILL looking into this issue.
Fixed: Phone options menu (holding power) has incorrect names and icons for the Silent and Vibrate options. The options still function correctly, however.
johnnybueno has created a new Vanilla 2.1 theme for this ROM. It is currently in alpha, but it already works very well. Check it out in this post.
As always, I'm in no way responsible for any damage, direct or indirect caused by this ROM, into perpetuity for ever and ever.
Enjoy!

For those of you that may be hesitant from yesterday events, I've been testing this Rom all day and it works well. No major bugs and everything seems to be functioning just fine.
Thanks pmf!

Couldn't have said it better myself. I'm really excited about which apps you chose to leave in, especially the exchange support, fb contact sync and a vanilla lockscreen (GASP!). Look forward to testing this out; Thanks!

LOLz, I missed that! The ironing iz delicious, yo
Gonna try me some of dis ROM, thank u.

Im not sure if its a bug, but when i plug it in to my computer and pull down the notification bar its not giving the open to mount my sd card/phone memory for my computer to use. Even if i set the default connection type to disk drive they still wont mount. Also every reboot Launcher Pro loses its icons for phone/sms/browser and i cant remember the last one.

Everything looking good here except for facebook sync. Don't know why, but if I connect the sync (even htcFacebook sync) I get constant sync icon and it never syncs my contacts.

I was having the same issue but I think I got it to work; I deleted the account under settings>accounts&sync, then followed the instructions in the link below, then reenabled my account. After that I went into apps>people, tabbed over to 'online directories' (the world icon) and did facebook, menu, refresh. Try this and let me know how it turns out!

There's some weirdness going on here for sure. However, try going into Connect to PC under settings, setting it as disk drive and then rebooting. It should connect as a disk drive after a reboot. At least, it did for me.
I'll look into the issue however. It seems that the HTC screen pop and settings menu can't change the USB behavior once it's booted.
Uncheck "Ask Me" under Settings > Connect to PC. Then unplug the USB, plug it back in. It will now work and just change it from the notification bar. I'll see what I can do about it.

found a way!

pardonmyfreedom, great, great work, man. this is perfect and exactly the ROM i wanted...is there a way you can fix the Facebook sync though? I hate how it syncs forever in the background (kills my battery, too.)
otherwise everything works great, a+!

The entire ROM is deodexed? That's awesome. Im going to check this one out. Thanks!

Great work. I love the ROM. Seems virtually bug free. Anyway for the lock screen to show just the background though? Other than that it's awesome. Keep up the good work. And thanks for leaving in voicemail I actually use mine.

Free Apps To Spice Up Your Epic!

Ok, So I've been gone for a while, but that doesn't mean that I haven't been working on things, or even just collecting a bunch of goodies... So allow me to share with you the fruits of Android Development Labor!
1. NFLifeScreen:
This is just a launcher to put it simply, but it's actually a pretty cool launcher if you like different things. It takes some getting used to, but it's worth it... It looks great on an Epic. The launcher consists of two sides. The right side is basically your "Quick Access" applications, while the left side is storage for the rest of your applications. On the right side, your quick access applications are set up in a circle, which you scroll through to find the ones you want. The quick access section consists of about 10 applications that you can set. You can scroll from the left side to the right side, so it only has two home screens, but the way it's set up, you really only need two. The left side has a box at the top that stores the rest of your applications. You can replace any of the "quick access" applications at any time with any of the applications from your app box. Another down side is that it's setup to allow you only one widget for the homescreen. If you're the type of person who really doesn't care for widget's that much, then this launcher just might be the one for you. On a plus note, everything on your "quick access" panel might have a pop-up menu. I'll show you what I mean in the screenshots.

2. TouchWiz 4.5 Launcher:
This launcher was created by some guys over in the I9000 thread, and while it's technically only TW4, they've added quite a few upgrades to it. I'll just go over a few things, and I'll include the link so you can check everything out on their official page in case you have any other questions. It has every feature of TW4, but some extras including but not limited to: Resizing Widgets, Scrollable Widgets, Easy Theming, Extra system settings, More homescreen settings and more. I've tried all the combinations of getting the correct download and seeing which one will work, so I'm including the link to the correct download for you guys, but if you wanna check out some of their other stuff, just check out their page and if you like it ...give em a thanks .

3. IHeartRadio:
This app is exactly what it sounds like. While it doesn't give you the option to skip songs, it is however, an app that compiles of over 750 different radio stations from all over the US. If you go on a vacation, and miss your radio stations from up home, don't worry any longer! You can just search for your radio station from home and listen to it on your phone as if you were back home listening to it in the comfort of your car! ...Ok, enough with the TV Commercial description lol, this app is very convenient. I'm stationed in Hawaii right now, but miss my radio from home because I could listen to Eagles games on sundays on one of the stations. With this app, I can find my station and listen to the games, while drinkin a cold one on the beach. It's very convenient, and awesome in the fact that I'm thousands of miles from home, but listening to the station as if I am home. It gives me a little peace of mind.

4. App Locker II: Fake Crash
This app is actually a very handy app if you have people that like to invade your privacy and pick up your phone. It allows you to make any application crash when opened, and all you have to do to fix it is perform one of the unlock actions. There's a few different actions, but for this specific purpose, I'll give you the option that I use the most, which is the rotate action. Basically what you do is open the application, select which application you want protected, and press it. A menu will pop up with two separate actions. Protect, and remove protection. To protect the app, obviously you're going to select "protect". Once the app is protected, simply hit the menu button, choose "settings", and select the mode you'd like for protection. For all intensive purposes, just follow along. Go to "unlock mode" and select "Rotate motion". Now simply hit the home button, you're done with the protection of the specific app. Now any time you go to open that application up, it's going to automatically force close, giving the illusion that the phone is crashing and won't allow the app to open. With the "Rotate motion" setting, all you have to do is turn the phone over. So while you're looking at the screen, do NOT hit the "Force Close" button, simply turn the phone over, so the screen is facing down, and turn it back over to face you. The app will then remove the force close dialogue box, and you're application will work. It's as simple as that. I've personally found this application VERY useful in the work place where everyone thinks that my phone is a community phone lol. Anyways, here's a DL link and a few screenshots to show you what it's all about.

SCREENSHOTS:
Ok, that's it for now, because it's getting late and I have to get up for work in the morning, but i'd like to at least state, for all intensive purposes, that these are either works of people on XDA, which are free, or are free in the market. None are the works of warez, and none of the apps posted here cost anything. I will create another list while I'm at work tomorrow of a bunch of free, fun games if you would like. I hope the use you get from these apps (should you choose to download any of them) will be more than satisfying. Also, if you guys choose the modified TouchWiz from the I9000 guys, stop by their page and give em a thanks (if you choose, that's not an order lol). Just try to think of the work they put into it. If you have any questions about any of the apps, feel free to either drop me a message here, or hit me up on Google+ or just Gmail. Whichever you prefer. [email protected].

OMG i got first, no way!! lol. nice apps bro, thanks!!!

[Android 3.0+, ROOT] TabletBar Hider - fullscreen in Honeycomb without system bar!

TabletBar Hider
Want to use your honeycomb tablet in *true* fullscreen, without that pesky system bar in the way? Now you can! (REQUIRES ROOT!)
This app allows you to hide the system bar in landscape mode, where it gets in the way the most. Then, if you need to access it to leave the app, just rotate your tablet to portrait and the bar appears. When you're done, rotate it back to landscape and the bar disappears again. You can go back to the app and end that behavior at any time.
There is currently an issue with apps that prevent rotation - you may get stuck in them! But worst case, you can always reboot and everything goes back to normal. I will work on a fix for that if people like the app!
I am new to Android app development so please let me know if there are any issues! I have created a free demo version that you can run to verify that the app will properly hide and restore the system bar on your tablet. I have tested this on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 but not others yet! So please make sure to try the demo first.
Note that the demo is only for verifying that the app can kill and restore the system bar. It does not feature the automatic rotation service that the full version contains.

Well thought! tested the demo and working well on arabic rom p7510jpkg5. Though expected demo to be a little more useful beyond just hiding and restoring the bottom bar. Couldn't revert to home screen after applying the tweak. The full version could have been free.
well done.

It's useful...thanks

Works great on my Xoom but some time in future development it would be nice to have the option of a transparent status bar too.

Bought it in hopes that you'll be further developing it. Further development on this that could really turn heads would be access to the full apps list with the ability to check mark which ones you want the taskbar hider to work with (and more importantly, which ones you don't).
Great idea. Looking forward to where this might go.

Please consider making it work with multitouch gestures.
I have my tablet set to always stay in Landscape mode (unless an app forces me into portrait mode). So the current way of hiding and restoring the status bar is a PITA.
What you could (should) do is this.
Two finger swipe down off of the screen = Hide status bar.
Two finger swipe up onto the screen = Restore status bar.
Does that make sense?
It's a great start!

It would be great if it would work with wizz or have like a wiz type bar where i can click bottom middle during any app and bring up home and back and multi task and then even better like wizz i can add my own!
edit:
on adw ex I have swipe down as notifications. with this thing enabled. I swipe down and my notifications dont pop up really wished that I could swipe down for my notifications with the bar off
O well, guess its good for specific apps although I would really like to see it as a more accessible thing like wizzbar

Yes, I know its a simple app and it could be free, but this is kind of an experiment for me to see if I can make money writing apps. It also will provide the encouragement I need to keep developing it. And yeah, the demo is just to make sure people don't get stuck buying the paid app and have it not work. Its not really intended to be useful.

Actually I was originally going to hook into the volume buttons, and have one hide it and one restore it, but I found that background services don't have access to the volume buttons. Orientation was less ideal, but It was something I could hook into from the background. I'm not sure if background services can see the gestures, but I will look into it! One thing I know I can do is look at the accelerometer instead of the orientation. That way even if you're locked, you can still rotate to show the bar. Of course.. then its sideways, and that's weird. But thanks for the words of encouragement as well!

Ooh, yeah the app kills the process that contains the notifications, so that is one area where it won't work. Also, I said this above but I'm not sure if I can see gestures from a background process. But I will look into it for sure! That would definitely be better.
I also realized that if I implement the suggestion above about selecting which apps to disable my app on, I could have it also disabled on the home screen. That would be nice.
-Taylor

So, I just realized that the Market app doesn't allow rotation, and it can appear that you're stuck. I will definitely have to add a way to filter which apps this is enabled for.
For the meantime, you're not actually stuck in Market. Just use the menu on the top right and go to "Contact us" and it will open the browser.
Silly, for sure. I'll try to add the fix soon. Probably not till the weekend though.

Awesome Work!

I have Wavelauncher installed and it's a good workaround. If I'm in an app that won't rotate I just swipe for Wavelaunch. It can show recent apps and user defined apps. If the app you want isn't listed, just pick one that does portrait to get the system bar back. If this app can come up there must be a way for you to do a swipe gesture to bring the bar back,
Anyway, thanks for this app! Love watching movies without the bar at the bottom!

I actually found virtual button bar in the market, works like a dream. Lovin the fullscreen now!
]

A nice feature would be:
Have the system bar timeout and hide itself after a set time amount of inactivity. Say... if you do not touch anything that has to do with the system bar for a whole minute, it will automatically hide itself. Swiping up could bring it back up or something like that. Would be extremely useful. Kinda like how Windows has the auto hide taskbar feature to give more screen space.
Honestly, I think auto hiding the system bar should be something Google should cook up and bring natively to the Honeycomb tablets. It makes sense to do that if you think about it. I know that the icons and such will dim down to white dots after a few seconds while using certain parts of the system apps, but something like auto hiding the entire system bar altogether will be far superior.

I still like the idea of checking off the apps this is allowed to work in on a list. I imagine that's a lot of work.
Perhaps in the mean time, you could implement a hidden button that could toggle the taskbar by tapping in the extreme upper right or left corner. That (I imagine) should be a lot simpler to do for the time being.
I wouldn't hesitate to spend $2.00-2.50 on the finished app.

I hope you could get it to work with the international 3G Xoom. MZ601

Hey guys,
Man, I don't get what the deal is with forums *not* e-mailing me even though I have notifications enabled.
But yeah, I have been brainstorming ways to make this work better. The simplest idea, and what I will try to enable this weekend, is shaking the tablet to toggle the bar.
Hooking into rotation was the simplest thing and I just wanted to get off the ground and see if people liked it. Clearly you guys do (thanks!) so I gotta make this app easier to use.
I looked up how to do swiping, and apparently background apps are not supposed to have access to touch events, for security (imagine if an app secretly waited till your banking app was running and then watched locations pressed on the screen when you typed your password). So people seem to think apps that run in the background and read swipes are using some kind of unsupported security holes, and my initial search only found people not willing to talk about it. Still, I haven't spent much time on it yet, busy week!
But I will look at it this weekend and see what I can do to improve it. I also gotta shoot a youtube videos as I have what feels like a high rate of returns - I think it would be really helpful if people saw how it worked before downloading.
And I finally got a review, yay! Of course if you have any opinions on the app I'd love a review!

Does it not? Is your tablet rooted? This app cannot work without root, unfortunately.

Let me rephrase it. According to the market, your app is not compatible with my MZ601. When i do a search through the market it doesn't come up in the list. Its strange though since I was able to download your tester and it worked. I really would like to have this on my Xoom. And yes' I am rooted and running the Hammerhead ROM.
Have you checked your spam folder? A lot of times emails get marked as spam specially ibes coming from forums.

Have you checked your spam folder? A lot of times emails get marked as spam specially ibes coming from forums.

Hmm... weird. I haven't purposefully hidden it from any devices. As far as I am aware it should work with every Honeycomb device.
I'll look into that this weekend.
And I checked my spam folder. Nothing there. I'll double check my notification settings.

[3.0+] LilyPad HD - floating instant message client

Hey guys,
We just released a new version of LilyPad HD. For those of you not familiar with the app, it's a floating IM client. Though this app is intended for tablets, I found it to be just as useful on my Galaxy Nexus. If you have ever been in a situation where you are surfing the internet or looking up directions and you get a message from your friend, you have to switch away from that app to reply to them. Well, with LilyPad HD, you never have to do this again. LilyPad HD floats on top of all of your active apps and lets you chat with your friends without ever leaving the app you're working on!
In celebration of Google's 'Longest Day' sale, we've dropped the price of LilyPad HD to only $0.99! Be sure to grab it while it's cheap!
Features:
-move it anywhere on your screen!
-Adjustable/resizable chat windows
-Quick Hide Mode: double tap action bar to enable quick hide mode
-Minimize chat windows completely
-Tabbed chatting for multiple conversations
Client Supported:
-Google Talk
-Facebook Messenger
-MSN
Upcoming client support
-Skype
-Yahoo
-AIM

Great work, just bought!
One thing though that is really missing is an option to not show in the notification area the "buddies list" as it's not necessary and takes useful space...there should be an option to choose as to remove that! Please fix!

In time, when we press the physical "back" key I think it should close the current window as any other app.
Thanks!

Hi GTO. I just saw your market comment. Let me explain why its necessary to have that notification. You see, the app is running as a service. Because it lives on top of other apps (unlike traditional apps) it would often be automatically be killed by Android. We need a persistent notification present so that we tell Android not to kill the app. This is how these floating apps have to work. I hope you understand the need for it. Thanks.

Hi Anyman07,
Thanks for the explanation.
One question though: If I make it bulletproof using the V6 Supercharger script would it still need to be in the notification?
If so, it there could be an advanced options for rooted phone.
Thanks again!

Unfortunately this isn't really a high priority for us right now. We don't want to start getting into the rooting scene just yet. We believe, and I am sure many of our users will agree, that there needs to be a quick way to get back to the buddy list so that you can chat with your friends. There's really no use for the app if every time you want to chat, you must first close the app you're using to get to the homescreen to launch LilyPad. Sure there are shortcuts and things like wavelauncher to help expedite this process, but we're targeting the general people here. Plus, we would have to ensure that ever root user has 'bullet-proofed' LilyPad and that could get messy. So we'll take your suggestion into consideration but there's a lot of other stuff that we need to perfect before making a separate option just for rooted users. Thanks.

Not at this time. We love Android!

I've got your point, it's just a suggestion anyway! Thanks for the response!
If you could make the floating window stop appearing when we connect or disconnect from wi-fi would be great though.
Thanks!

I Love this app however I have two things that needs to be upgraded. First and most important thing I NEED YAHOO MESSENGER. Second is the customizing the app. It would be great if we could tweak it the way we want it and if i could have emoticons.

Hi I just bought this app, and this is working great on my new nexus 7.
But i am just wondering if there is any way to really quit the application? What i am doing now is to force close the app.
I want to close the app as i am quite concern about battery
thanks in advance

The app virtually uses no battery. Other customers have confirmed this. But if you want to quit the app, open the options, scroll the tabs and after About you will see Exit.

thank for answering, i miss the tab after about actually :silly:

Can you guys add a way to add my own xmpp server. I think this is the same protocol that Google talk uses. I would love to add my work Jabber account to use this app with it.

Dot View Mods is a collection of modifications for the HTC One (M8)'s Dot View cover.
This module requires an unlock key for most features: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mohammadag.dotviewmodsforhtcmateunlockkey
Features include:
Control your music playback and see what's playing right from the Dot View cover.
Add gestures to the case and customise them.
See notifications at a glance, with support for all Android notifications. (enable the listener in Settings -> Security -> Notifications access)
* See the full notification when it first comes in: your notifications scroll across the screen.
Quick dial contacts right from the cover, with support for up to 9 shortcuts spread across 3 pages.
Don't have a contact and still want to dial them quickly? Open up a full dialer right from the cover.
And if you're bored:
Play a quick game of Snake, retro-style!
Compatibility:
This module was coded with the stock DotMatrix application set to 480DPI, the developer cannot guarantee it'll work fine with other DPIs.
If you have other modifications installed, support cannot be guaranteed.
Usage:
Dialer:
Swipe up to call the number, swipe down to close the dialer. If no numbers are input, a swipe up redials the last person called.
Swipe from right to left to delete a number, tap and hold the numbers at the top to delete all.
A future update may add speed dial from the stock dialer.​Snake:
Tap the HTC logo on your cover to pause the game, tap it again to save progress and quit the game.​Shortcuts:
Swipe left and right to change between shortcut pages.​

Great collection of m mods for the dot view. I bought the unlock key shortly after I installed it, great work.
Will you be posting future work here @MohammadAG?

Yep, I realised email was bad for this kind of stuff since a lot of it is repeated.
I'm done with exams, so there should be more updates now. I've already added a torch feature.

Awesome, looking forward to it!
I have a couple of suggestions:
- Is it possible to make it so that none of the apps are turned on by default for notifications? So that people have to add the ones they want rather than untick the rest that aren't really useful?
- Is it possible to disable gesture controls completely? so no menu or music control etc?
This module will be perfect for me if it is as close to stock as possible, with the addition of custom notifications of course
Anyway, keep up the awesome work :good:

Believe it! Play SNAKE at Dot View. also play song.

I'm having trouble with it actually wo4king for long periods it will stop displaying notifications after like the first notifications (so after a message it will no longer work) also the dialer will work when it wants too I've had like 3 instance now were the phone will stay stuck on the dot view look even if I open the flap... I've Uninstalled it and reinstalled same issue
Any suggestions???

New version is out:
Major features:
Custom gradient support, pick the top and bottom colors from the settings app. Non scrolling text now uses this gradient.
Torch feature, either using gestures or menu items
For everything else, see the change log on Xposed.
Reboot immediately after installation.

If it sticks on the screen, that's actually a crash, I'd need a logcat to debug that, but you need to use adb to get that.
The new version, however, has some bug fixes that will should reduce (or prevent) crashes. Try seeing if it still happens there.

Best regards.

Here is fine, I only need the lines starting with AndroidRuntime

Downloaded and immediately paid for the unlock key. Exactly what I was looking for, love your work.
How does one actually trigger the snaka game? Taping on the HTC logo isn't doing anything for me.

You'll need to add it to the main menu in settings, same goes for the dialer.
Tapping the HTC logo exits the game.

Thanx for the quick response.. Working perfectly so far!

Awesome update! Shukran @MohammadAG?
For anyone having trouble with the app recognizing the license key after the update, uninstall the license and then reinstall it... It should work after that.
Loving the new features, keep up the good work

I like this mod but they is still some stability issue.
It happen my phone can't unlock and stuck during using dot view play song.
Force restart is the only way.
I believe this module will became better and better.

I'm going to need a logcat filtered for AndroidRuntime. The reason the screen is stuck is because behind it is a dialog that says DotMatrix has stopped working and you'd need to click okay (which you can't).
But still, a crash is a crash and it needs to be fixed, so please, post a logcat
