Will definately need testing. I got the process down 100% though, just the script will require some testing so please stay posted.

GREAT!
we can get some ROMs going with an sbf with root as a backup and Nandroid backup to go all the way back to stock in case you need to return the phone.
also - we can edit the frameworks to get rid of the BS massive carrier title in the notification bar.

will i still be able to install this theme http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1041450 or at least a black notification bar? thanks

Most likely the people making those would have to get the updated framework files and redo the themes to make it work with new firmware. If you really need the theme then i'd recommend waiting for a bit to give people time to make some stuff for the update before you install it. Having root is a good start to getting there though

refresh refresh refresh.......................
my apologies, im just a lil we bit to excited to get this script!

I think we will need to deodex first and repackage the theme first. Correct me if I'm wrong. Root is always the first step but the important thing here as stated above is that bell users can use cwm to backup bell then flash to this telstra verson and root to install cwm and recover to bell if necessary. I'm sure someone will port a theme with a dark bar soon This rom also has minor improvements such as 2.2.2 and hspa fix (or so the small tester army is saying).
Lol, I can't seem to type fast enough to get a response out...yesssss, refresh!

raybond25 i sent you a PM don't know if you got it but basiclly do i have to wait for a new set of deodexed files and then also have to wait for the theme to be compatible with this SBF? thanks
EDIT: also i don't mind waiting for a few weeks for some compatible themes etc. i want my fast upload speeds etc.

Yes, that is correct. I wasn't really thinking of deodex. I believe the process is essentially the same for every update, so I don't expect it will be long before this is done. If you really like your current theme setup you might as well wait a week or two before installing the new sbf.

already flashing it, lol. i did like the gingerbread theme but i can live with a white notification bar a settings menu for a couple weeks, most everything else i can get to look the same. but it shouldn't take very long to at least get a black notification bar updated to work with this SBF (few days to a week im guessing)

okay i have run into a problem, when i try and sign in to my motoblur account i get the error (an error has occurred, please try again) also i have no data connection (may just have to enter bell APN settings later) but using wifi. can someone help me with this and is there a way to bypass the setup? thanks
EDIT: managed to bypass motoblur setup using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1027994 and i do have to enter bells APN settings but i think the problem was my wifi at the motoblur setup screen, its doing some crazy connect>disconnect>connect>disconnect thing so that is probably why i couldn't set up my motoblur account
EDIT 2: everything is working except the wifi issue but i never use the wifi, waiting for root script so i can restore using titanium backup!

I never set up my motoblur (on bell version haven't flashed this one yet), I think I just didn't put in my sim card and didn't connect to wifi and it let me bypass it. Bell apn should be easily found.

i just installed this rom and running great , set up the rogers APN and all my preferred settings, now just waiting for this root

wont be long
Just working out the final kinks, and testing on a fresh flash to be 100% everything is explained and working perfectly.

I'm going to flash this now, hoping it fixes some issues I was having. Once it gets deodexed I will update my theme ASAP, because I really cant stand the 2.2 look

Great tutorial, thanks!
Can you confirm that we can install cwm and return to the stock bell? ...Just in case we miss the bellbloat

go back to stock 2.1 update the app from there, then backup the .apk (astro file explorer has a tool that allows you to do this) then install it in the other builds
which file is it in? I can't find it
its called com.core.apk or something like that im not sure where it hangs out

Yeah, it's something like that in system/app
sprint_core.apk in /system/app there may be an odex. i always rm NameOfApp.*
if you delete the apk it may cause problems(maybe. didnt for me but has for others). you also wont be notified of vm's. youll have to call to check. on a 2.1 rom, that is. thats how it worked for me anyway.
personally, my vm isnt working on my new device. like it never set itself up correctly. if anyone should happen to have a link to some instructions to set this up, that would be fantastic. I hate calling the silly people at sprint. thank you

it didnt work. i removed the original, flashed yours. still have the undelivered message, the activation message. nothing is working, i cant figure it out. and when i called sprint, they reset my vm, so i lost messages and had to set up everything again...
FYI to Impaler, your VVM version in your sig works for those in areas where an official update has not rolled through yet.
Don't know if you are aware, but Sprint recently updated the VVM software to version T.5.1.0.48 (here in TX it was updated the last week of October). Note that Sprint CSR will not be able to help you reset it unless you are on a Sense ROM. Period.
Two options to fix on your non-Sense ROM... there is an updated .apk floating around on these boards (might need to PM someone for it). Get it and install via your file manager.
Or...
Other way is to nandroid your current ROM, then flash a Sense ROM like Fresh's most current. Then, update your PRL and Profile, then go into the VVM and press Menu and update Sprint VVM.
Then, either try to nandroid back to your original ROM and check to see if that does it (haven't tried that, but it might work)... or else... yes, you will need to pull the updated com.coremobility.app.vnotes from the Sense ROM and install the pulled .apk into your new ROM.
Hope this helps.
mr. implaler, I have used yours for the last weeks successfully, so thank you. I just ran into the same problem with the mandatory upgrade, and it is an update i did before I rooted my phone. the VM did work this morning on MUIU but i loaded MYN and that is when my issue started.
Hope someone can firgure it out

Excellent...let me add to this...
I suppose using variations of ROMS that don't include VVM and block 9016 caused this issue.
You can unblock 9016 by going to your account online, under "My Devices," then "My Preferences." Scroll down to the "Limits and permissions" section. You will see the "Block Texts" link there.

[Q] My data connection is missing most of the time when flashing any 2.3 ROM ... Why?

So far it has been hit and miss when flashing 2.3 ROM's on my Nexus One.
For example I can flash the same ROM but depending on the order maybe I'm usually not getting any data connection icon or anything. It's like it's not there.
But every once and awhile I manage to flash something in the correct order and it appears. I make a backup when this happens and its fine. However if I want to flash any new 2.3 ROM I have to start the guessing game all over.
Can anyone explain what exactly is happening here or how I can get a data connection every time?
Thanks in advance.
Are you with an odd ball carrier?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
I have exactly the same issue! After searching/posting about it on here, and across the WWW in general, i was starting to think i was the only person with this problem.
I'm on Vodafone UK so it's not as if it's a small carrier! Somebody suggested using an App thats available from the Market to backup your apn settings and then use it to re-apply them to the new ROM. I've returned to stock now but if you want to give that a try i'd be interested to hear if it helps.
APN Back & Restore will definitely do the job, I've tried it.
MicroMod777 GB included a Vodafone APN, but I used my backed up one just to be sure.

Be good to know if this works for the OP. I tried the Vodafone apn setting when running the ROM you mentioned but that didn't help. Perhaps the app would have done the trick.
I'm waiting for the OTA GB now
I am in Shanghai using CMCC. Thanks for the advice although I'd be lying if I said I knew what APN back means. Could you clarify exactly how to do this? I am a little new to Android. Again thank you all for the replies in advance.

OK I figured out that APN Backup and Restore is a program. Now I have a backup of my APN ... HOWEVER ... Now I have a new problem lol.
The version of 2.3 has no file manager or way to install the .apk file of APN Backup and restore ...
How does one go about installing things without some sort of file browser? IS there a work around for this problem?
Am I missing something totally obvious?

[Rom][7-4-12][ZV9]Broken Out Revo 2.0 w/ BlitzKrieg Kernel

Hello all! Here it is Broken Out Rom for the LG Revolution!!! It has been fully cleaned out to decrease size and to increase speed. It will continue to be a work in progress! I hope you all enjoy!!!
What is this?
This is a very lightweight rom built both for speed and stability. This rom is based off of the latest LG update to Gingerbread 2.3.6. It is fully deodexed, and debloated. Almost all of LG has been replaced and as time goes by, I hope to remove the rest. Swype has also been changed to the newest Beta. A few items have been replaced with AOSP versions to increase speed and decrease size. Also included is the appwidgetpicker to clean that up.

missing Sim card
Installed fine, but when I get to set up at the language selection it says it needs a Sim card to activate. I have a Sim card in there. Just in case, I removed it, replaced it and rebooted. Still asking for Sim card...any thoughts?
Damn the bad luck!
Got impatient, flashed this at work (step by step, not new to this). Got stuck at the LANG screen, combo'd past it, no SIM detected.
Fwiw, the build looks AWESOME from playing around in it. So quick at stock! Just cant use it as is. : /

I got a fix... try re flashing following all instructions, but DO NOT code through the setup lang. screen. Instead select english, allow the sim card to "activate" until it says it is already activated and you see continue with setup process. and then you can just home button, or back button to you homescreen and ta dah!.

The problem I was having (and I assume the same for pborner) was that the activation failed because of the "lack" of sim.
I fully intend to reflash this (again) when I wake up in the afternoon. Glad it worked for you. Gives me hope for the second chance!

Totally missed that line on the original post. My bad.
WORKS FLAWLESSLYUnfortunately, half the people on here DO NOT follow instructions, and they FAIL and CRY about how it doesn't work. MT puts in this hard work, and you SLUGS can't even follow directions. HE SAID VZ8 IS NECESSARY....if he says that WHY THE **** would you flash from GB?
AND THEN WASTE FORUM SPACE. UNBELIEVABLE, this installed first shot with ZERO problems without tricks and without cm9 GARBAGE. 4 G works perfect, NO SIM CARD ISSUES.
LIKE THE MAN SAID, BEFORE FLASHING YOU BETTER HAVE ZV8, IF YOU DON'T, SCREW
Sorry if I am being stupid on this, but...
I would like to jump into this new rom, but with all the different threads now, I must admit I am really confused. Every night now I receive the Software Update failed screen. I am on ZV7 running GingerVOlt 1.3 now.
Anyone kind enough to point me to the right thread to get to ZV8 and then to this rom after. I am lost reading the different threads now. I figured this would be the best thread to get the help. I have flashed many roms and such on this, nook colors, and my 3 Droid Eris phones, so I know how to do the stuff. I am just not seeing which one to go with first.
Also... I am not sure right now if my ADB is running at home or not. Formatted out my laptop a bit back and not sure if I have run it since or not. So anything that is flashable on the phone would be best for me at work.
Does blue tooth work with this ROM?

How can I fix Wi-Fi hotspot on Dark Raider?

Hey guys. I've had a Raider on Rogers for quite some time, and the Dark Raider rom with KozmikKernel RC1 has been working well for me for what I need. However, the Wi-Fi hotspot hasn't been working for me no matter how many different third-party tethering programs I installed. I'm on the AT&T build.prop. Is there any way I can fix this problem on my current setup, or should I just switch over to stock Rogers ICS and go back to a custom ROM later?
I've also attached a screenshot of what happens on the default hotspot app (My phone crashed while trying to take the screenshot.... weird )
Try the beta 12 from kozmick , or faux 123 (007 kernel) see if that works for ya.

I just installed beta 13 and it didn't work. Also, my phone's performance is now choppier, probably because of the badass governor.
i hope i helped.
i have had the same issue before, and after a lot of reading and searching, i came to figure out what i was doing wrong.
you should keep reading and searching too, you will learn a lot.
but i will tell you what i know and i hope it helps.. it all has to do with the way you flash roms and kernells to your device. if you have already achieved S-off, then your problem may be a lil more difficult,, but if you are just fastboot unlock and rooted.. what you need to do is stract the boot.img of the file that has the kernell inside the rom zip. and flash that separately via fastboot.
place the boot on ur file that ur using to flash stuff, and then use the proper command,
"fastboot flash boot boot.img" in command pront,
if u are confuse, take a look into this guide. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416836

I've tried 3 different kernels, still getting the same error message as above on DarkRaider. I'm not with AT&T. Any advice?
Reflash the Rom and when its done flash the kernel should fix it

Tried that with several ROMs and several kernels - still get the same error. Thought I had it fixed with that world-famous Illuminati ROM, but alas it was not to be.
It has to be an APN problem, in that it's looking for AT&T info and not finding it. That's all I can think of it being...

Yea att,
that is what mine looks like , at the top right you can see the active symbol.
On a stock ROM, that's exactly what I see. It works on stock but any modded ROM gives me an error. It works on AT&T, but not on any other carrier. That's what I'm trying to figure out.

Hey guys. I've had a Raider on Rogers for quite some time, and the Dark Raider rom with KozmikKernel RC1 has been working well for me for what I need. However, the Wi-Fi hotspot hasn't been working for me no matter how many different third-party tethering programs I installed. I'm on the AT&T build.prop. Is there any way I can fix this problem on my current setup, or should I just switch over to stock Rogers ICS and go back to a custom ROM later?
I've also attached a screenshot of what happens on the default hotspot app (My phone crashed while trying to take the screenshot.... weird )

Actually I'm using this on my HTC Vivid for tethering!! I did this that a saw on a Vivid ROM thread, I think it was on Dark Raider's..... so I don't deserve any credit, I just want to help. I'm rooted and tried it and it works perfectly!! You can just hit the thank you button.
You'll need SQ Lite Editor:
1) Dialer Storage
2) telephony.db
3) carriers
4) 12 Entitlement 310410
you shoud change the value under "apn" from "broadband" to "pta"
5) Please restart your device and you will get it!!

[ROM][WIP] Flashable Stock HTC 626s Debloated 2.27.651.6 (Sprint/VM/Boost) (9-2-16)

Info:
This is a custom stock rom that is only for sprint devices (Sprint/Vm/Boost). It was made using SuperR's Kitchen. It is rooted and I tried to removed as much as I could. This is just a work in progress so there will probably be more that I will remove and will replace some of the apps with updated and better versions based on user input. Also included for those that wish to make their own rom is an decrypted rooted stock. I have tested these extensively, but as always make a full backup before flashing and do a full wipe just in case. I am not responsible for any damages or loss of data that may occur from flashing these roms.

Let me know if there are any problems/request you have I'll try to do my best to fix them as quickly as possible.
I would like to thank @Captain_Throwback for all of his help in making this rom.
*updated links 9-2-16
Nice! I'm downloading now. Thanks for putting in the time. Can't wait to check it out.

Let me know how it goes. I still have some work to do on it. Wasn't really sure what some of the files were. I'll be running more test to see what else I can remove and still have it boot. Wan't to get this as small as possible. If I removed anything that breaks something important let me know. As I said I'm not a dev and this is my first attempt.
No doubt. I have no problem putting it through the wringer. I'll let you know if I find anything, as well as any fixes that may work. I'm stoked to get back to my 626 and get to flashing!
I'll keep an eye on this. Just got the phone in the mail and noticed the extreme amounts of bloatware. Can't wait to root Dx.
Everything seems to be functioning correctly so far. Nice, lite and responsive. Flashed well, maybe 3 minutes total to complete. Boot up took even less. As of this post, no FC's or hangups found.
Solid rom! Thanks again!
Finally a rom for the sprint variants! I'll be giving this a try, downloading now. I hope it solves the low memory problems....

Removed most of the apps that were causing problems. Have another version that I am currently working on that will have the updates included and a few more apps removed. Only problem is this phone is very hard to make flashable roms for. Most attempts end with a boot loop. Still not giving up though.
A few things I have noticed: first is the HTC Account apk was missing so I couldn't sign in to install themes. I fixed that by downloading it from Google Play and making it a system app using rom toolbox pro.
Secondly I'm not sure if our phone has a magnetometer (compass) I would think it would have one. But it's not working.
Other than those 2 issues, this is a solid rom. Good job man. Keep up the good work.
I'm trying to get viper4Android to work but it keeps telling me my busybox installation is broken which it isn't.
Might wanna see if you can include busybox in future updates. Just a suggestion.
Oops, sorry noob here, got the 626s desire but connected to the bell network. if this is a sprint rom i guess i got to go back to rooted stock? The rom boots but hangs at activation. am i correct?
Unfortunately until someone comes up with a rom for your variant, you'll have to go back to your original rom. I hope you made a backup before you installed this rom.
I have the boost mobile variant and I still can't get twrp to work only Cyan recovery anyone know anything about getting two to work I used captainthrowback
Maybe I should learn how to read better. Is new so started off the bat with nothing on it so no backup I did with it. Worst case is I'm screwed lol.

You might not be screwed. Try searching the HTC website for an Ruu for your carrier. Once you find it lock your bootloader, then let it run its magic. Should return you back to stock.
@Sinister Drake I removed a lot of HTC stuff as I didn't think most people use it. If I do remove something you really need and can't find let me know and I'll re-add it.
As for busybox it does come pre-installed. Why some apps find it and others do not I can't really say. Doing a busybox check does show it's there.
Now as for the compass that is a issue that worries me. All my research says this phone has one, but it doesn't work even on my recovery. I need to know if it was something that worked on stock or if it was just false reporting by HTC, so I can narrow down the problem. It shouldn't be a problem with my rom as it is taken directly from the RUU, but I cannot be for certain until I get more feedback.
You know I screwed myself and went to quick because I had it rooted with twrp and oh look debloated firmware without paying attention to the Carrier, Doh! You know what silly, I called HTC Canada because bell is a Canadian outfit and they apparently don't supply ruu's like the states does. Oh well my bad 200 smackers later and a new phone. I guess on the bright side I can root it lol. Maybe one of the excellent developers will somehow create a bell version.
New version = https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BzHOZHL6ZwXhRWxZNG4zc3lDSWc Removed an extra 200mb now total over 600mb freed. Also, updated the OP with the list of apps that have been remove. As always if I removed something you want and can't find let me know I will add it back in. Been using this version for a few days and found no errors, but make a backup just in case. Report any error you find I'll do my best to fix them.
Working on updating the apps to free up even more space. After that I'll be replacing some apps with lighter versions. Once I get any significant build I'll post it.
@kindlefire39 hopefully you can find someone else that has this phone in your region to make a backup for you. Once you get that you can easily use suprr kitchen to make a debloated version.
Is it possible to backup my new phone and use super kitchen? Or am I out in left field? I could be the first one with a bell mobility variant.

Once you flash a rom it overwrites the one you currently have installed. That is why it is good to make a backup before you flash. Out of curiosity have you tried to flash Captain_Throwback's rom? Its for metropcs but if you can get your phone to boot you can call your phone company tell them your phone is on a different carrier and you need the codes for the phone to work on their network. If you do get it to boot some things might not work, like the wifi, but it can get you through until you can get a proper rom/backup. Try posting in the help section asking for someone to make a backup of their phone. Heck even try asking anyone you know that has the same phone if you can borrow it for a bit to fix yours.

When I installed the rom I did not see Busybox, I installed it from google play. I'm still trying to figure out how to get viper4android to work to no avail. Maybe you can add it as a system app with the rom. With that being said, I've learned that another thing you have to do to get it to work is to use the selinux changer. with a quick google search you can find it elsewhere to download since it is not availble on google play anymore.
I do have to give you props though man, you're doing a fantastic job developing this rom whilst not being a developer. Kudos to you brother.

Is it possible that you could provide the apk for the HTC clock widget? I really dig the flip clock style. I can install it myself, I just dont have the apk for it
Sorry what I meant is I got a second phone because HTC Canada couldn't help. I just bit the bullet. So with the new phone can I make a stock backup or through twrp than backup? If I have a stock backup, than I could custom it and delete apps that you did for yours in your list.
