Hello XDA, the last few weeks have been a little crazy around here and we lost some great devs. As a result I've gotten the bug to mod ICS myself. I am on the BinDroid team but for the last 6 months have been working two jobs and I have two toddlers so my dev time have been almost zero. Anyway, I have been working with DutchDanny (he does all of the images for BinDroid) over the last few days and have the beginnings of a BinDroid Vivid ROM.
I have a pretty thick skin but hopefully the drama won't be to bad. That being said I am still working two jobs so once the first beta comes out updates might be slow. As long as you can deal with that BinDroid might work for you.
I do need a little assistance to get the beta complete. Neither frameworkres.apk or SystemUI.apk will recompile properly, even without modification they will not recompile. I tried using UOT Kitchen as a shortcut, but it can't recompile the files either. Is there a dev out there that has had any success decompiling and recompiling those two apks? I just need to mod a few XML's and add a few new one to get some animations going.
If anyone has any dev or mod experience and you would lik to help, that will speed up the updates Danny doesn't have a Vivid so he is working on the Sensation XE right now.
I'm sure we will all be patient with your work. Most of us understand and are grateful for any type of development at all and welcome all of it. Honestly, you don't have a lot to worry about, our vivid section isn't too bad. There were only a few rotten apples that ruined it for everyone. Can't wait to see what you have in store.
Welcome~
Well, I hope this helps

Good to hear! With Pirateghost's leaving I was wondering who would take up the charge on more custom ICS ROMs. Good luck to you cyber_pete!!

Ah, thank you bananacakes, this looks promising. I couldn't get passed the error with the "<anim name="htc_ime_decelerate_interpolator">@anim/zzz_htc_ime_decelerate_interpolator</anim>" file.
I will give this a try when the kids go to sleep. Thanks again.

2)copy two file(framework-res.apk & com.htc.resourses.apk) to apktool decompile folder
3)run to Command Prompt.bat
3)apktool if framework-res.apk
apktool if com.htc.resourses.apk
4)apktool d framework-res.apk
5)go to res/values/anims.xml
change this

<item type="anim" name="htc_ime_decelerate_interpolator">@anim/zzz_htc_ime_decelerate_interpolator</item>
then..
recompile framework-res
1) copy framework-res folder to apktool compile folder
2)run to Command Prompt.bat
3) apktool b framework-res
rebuilt succeed.....
This is great to see. I used BinDroid on my Inspire at times and it was a top notch ROM.

So just out of curiosity what kind of features are you thinking of including?
'cause if you need any ideas there's a thread in the general section that's
basically only suggestions for a dev to browse over. =D
There shouldn't be anymore drama since the banhammer threat has been made, I doubt there will be people risking getting band, yet again, the Vivid forum is filled with noobs

haha yeah. I avoid PMing the OP's. It's kind of rude. They put in so much effort into writing the instructions and people ignore it, flash the way they flashed on other phones and brick their machines. I come from the Inspire so I've used the Bindroid roms before. It was smooth but sometimes it was heavy on the ram. It could get me as low as 90 mb. The Vivid is much more powerful and once someone sets the clock speed back to 1.5 Ghz it will be much better.

We will start with a clean stable BD themed ROM. I already added an extended quick settings menu. We are looking into the extended power menu. Hoping to get the beta out very soon. I am thinking of doing a prerelease so maybe we can get it tested first since I don't have a full Vivid team right now.

Ok I finally got everything to flash for on my wifes phone as an update.zip and it seems to be working great.
The only rom I have tested it on is Eris Lightning Bolt 2.7 so I am unsure if it will work on any other roms.
I attached what i have done so far below if anyone else wants to try it out.
I'll admit myself that the look is very rough around the edges as i have just learned how to do this. Any help would be very much appreciated as i try to learn more about making solid themes. If you want to change the clock and date colors in the notification bar you can do so in spare parts, general.
Thanks to Conap for his wonderful rom and also for giving me guidance and pushing me in the right direction.
Install by downloading the attachment, placing on sdcard, and selecting themeforladies.zip from recovery.
I am not responsible, directly or indirectly, to anything that may happen to your phone as a result of you flashing this.
i would like to see your work.

This is my first time theme so while i can verify it works, I can only verify that it will work on Eris Lightning Bolt(Cyan). Have some issues with transparency on some of the images because i'm still learning what to do. Thought some additional opinions and suggestions might help me improve.
yea i will definitely check this out.

Good answer grass hopper. You passed my trick question, lol. let me know what night works out for you and I will get you going on it. As I said before, you will laugh at how easy it truely is.
I just started making ROMs today and I'm going to start with just modifying a ROM.
Couldn't get the Golden Elegance theme to work with anything. So it's has ADW Launcher and everything else.
Goodies added:
Hulu
Flashplayer
Wireless Tether
A Skinned "Droid Does" Swype Keyboard
Option Of ADW Launcher or Launcher Pro
I'll work on different colored themes in the near future.

Good luck with future roms.

I agree 110%.. I've thought about trying to learn how to cook up some ROMs but if this is how i would get treated, forget it. So what if its not a "ROM". Everyone has to start somewhere. He's learning. He's obviously smarter than you at age 13 and you obviously have a problem with it. Grow up before you decided to post such nonsense.

@OP glad ur taking interest and trying to learn to cook roms.
perhaps u should work on creating some original material and get some people to test/help u before u create a thread for a ROM...
That way nobody could complain and u could learn and put together a good ROM
Wow, sure he just used a basic kitchen to add things a lot of ppl add anyways. This isn't for me so I'm not gonna flash it, but I'm not gonna flame someone for doing this. A lot of people will find this useful. Just because its not for you doesn't mean its right to treat someone trying to contribute like this.

It almost makes me wish I wouldve kept my Incredible now that they have custom Roms running but the X is much more fitting and better for me. I felt the same way about the Incredible when I had it, didnt think Root was gonna make it and wasnt sure how long it would take to get custom Roms. I jumped ship because of that and a lil bit in part to bad battery life and soon after they got Root and now have custom Roms running. We just have to be patient as we have and hope that it soon comes. I agree with you and am thankful for what we have and we can play in the sandbox just not with all the toys.
Anyone know if the Unrevoked Team has gotten their hands on a DX yet? If not it might be time for another DX donation thread to give this Team a crack at the bootloader.
According to a post at the android forums, birdman is working on something that has to do with the mbm. It think it was Lexusbrian that gave a little tidbit that birdman might have some news for us in a couple of days from now. So be patient becuase it is being worked on.
Sweet. Well lets hold strong dx'ers, give support and donations, eventually well smash this efuse.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Considering how FAST we got root compared to the Dinc and how the whole "efuse" panic basically provoked folks into wanting a DX just to prove the bootloader can be hijacked, I think we'll have something soon.
Birdman has been shooting out some occasional tweets that suggest that he's working on it, as well as on FlyX. I expect we'll have a significant breakthrough soon (a few weeks, in my estimation.... I'm being conservative here... it could be faster), if not a working bootloader hijacking process.

Apparently the documents and code to do this are out there now. All that needs to be done at this point, is for someone to put it into an Update.zip format.
Apparently it involves some kind of exploit with NVRAND while Flashing a new baseband. I'd say within 2 weeks, our phones will be open.

First off... the only people working on anything for the ZIO are the cricket users. You won't even be able to flash any kind of rom without a working clockworkmod recovery. I haven't seen any sprint users jumping on that yet... read the forums and learn something so you can port clockworkmod and after you have done that you can start installing from zips and using nandroid to backup and restore.

The only truth I see is that you're acting like a douchebag for no apparent reason. I dont need to restate what I've already said, but I will anyhow. Maybe listen this time..
There are only a handful of sprint users here, and 99% of them are non dev's...
Non devs dont give an S.H. about obtaining source, they are interested in the end-product. So if you want to go rooting for the source, stop being a douche and go do it. Dont rag on others who dont know how to go about obtaining such. Its just bad form and not in the spirit of open development.
So with that said, modify ur attitude and be a human being ffs..

Thanks for the good words everyone, I hope the initial tests are going smoothly, please report issues so they can be logged and addressed.
I don't deserve much credit for this, all of the sources came from others, I just put them together how I see they best fit. My biggest contribution was getting the external to mount on the SGS with the crespo (nexus s) source framework.
When I have the time, I'm going to get my Linux box up and running, with the goal being to build ICS from source, directly and solely for the Vibrant, since well thats the phone I have, and still rock.
Until I can get a solid build going from source for us, I feel this is a suitable substitute.
