Hey guys,
Is anyone brave enough to test the full feature 1.5 build of Open Home Full? We know we can always find some brave ones here
It requires that you are running android 1.5 on your phone (aka Cupcake). This build has full supports of 1.5 widgets and also a good amount of stability and performance improvements.
We had not done a lot of testing on this build; also this build will expire in a month (5/30). If you want to test the latest and greatest, feel free to install and try this build.
*Remember safe mode is hold menu button when powering on*, if you see anything wrong, just enter safe mode and then uninstall it.
Do NOT install unless you are running android 1.5
Download the apk at
http://groups.google.com/group/openhome/files
I assume since I'm running the dudes build and it supports widgets it may work. I can always remove if necessary . This doesnt remove open home right? just a different version?
EDIT: it replaces the existing open home
Hmm, I was impressed with the demo of OpenHome when I downloaded it a couple days ago. I'll take a look.
downloading it now. I have just flashed the holiday cupcake build so I assume it'll work with this. I'll let you know.
So far so good. I am glad to have openhome back again in 1.5
I have added all widgets, and they all work as expected. Are some of these the 1.5 "stock" widgets? I assume so because i see 2 music widgets listed, one looks like your own and the other a stock one.
I'll let you know how it goes after some proper usage. great work so far though. thankyou.
oh, p.s .. Will this be a free upgrade for those who had previosly purchased open home full ?
Works well enough. I like it.
Normally use full edition but will keep this until it is updated.
Suggestion: How about that calendar widget from Haykuro's build so those with dude's builds can use it?
Using it. Works well so far. I'm an OH Full user too, will I have any problems going back to the market app when it gets updated/released?
Ps. Is there any way to add support for Jeff Sharky's weather widgets? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509729
Weather widgets ok here. Problem with battery percentage widget though

It's already supported. That weather widget is working fine for me.
Hey guys i like the changes the menus are a little more intuitive now! Shame it doesn't seem to maintain your icons from older version, but weirdly kept my fonts theme etc - not sure if that qualigfies as a bug or not really
One problem i have found though is it seems to scrap folder icons the second you open bettercut again, not a huge problem but ....
BUGS!
I have almost 200 apps to SD so it's convenient to have my favorite "few" on the desktop. After I installed the new apk file... everything was GONE! Huge inconvenience! Then when I pull up the app menu I can watch them appear one after another like the app is doing a search for the installed apps. I also tried Picture Frame. It seems like it pulls up the Camera app, then the gallery. I selected my picture. Cropped it. Saved it. Then it went back to "select picture" again. Strange. Also... AnyCut Open Home Edition doesn't work. Definite bugs.
Other then that I love it. Thanks! Is this going to be in an update and when will it be available in Market? I purchased the full version months ago.

I don't think it has anything to do with bettercut because I don't have it installed and it still goes back to the default folder icons randomly, sometimes it comes back sometimes it doesn't.

Yea that kind of pissed me off when I realized it took all my stuff off the screen and the dock. It works fine besides these few issues though.

Hey quick question, is there any way to add a 3d effect on swipe? Like when you swipe to left or right screen, screen shrinks and rotates as a 3d cube. That will be awesome dude, you can name the app something different and charge for it again because I know damn well people will pay for it. I definitely will.

The reguar widget works for me, but not his. It isn't even displayed as an option.
Trying it out on my new Magic
But it's not 'open' in any sense...
Really dissapointed in losing all of my icons on all 7 screens. Glad that "real" widget support was actually added in. Almost went back to dxTop because of this. Please make the full version available on the market as an upgrade to the old full version. It would be nice to make it detect the old settigns and import them in.
Hey guys.. uhh i accidentally set my home to default instead of open home.. any help would be appreciated!

Opps. You have to wipe now.
Just kidding. You deal with it the same way as if you would set the defaults as any other app. Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Home>Clear defaults.
Been using this app for a few days now.I havent ran into any problems with it pretty smooth.Only down side was losing my icons.But no biggie.

There is another entire thread dedicated to flashing the OTA radio file. It's an entire process, especially if you are rooted already. You have to unroot to do it.
would it be possible to get the 3g ap hotspot so I could install it? It actually works quite well.
so... as with every other 2.2 rom i've tried, i'm getting the same problem with this one.
my contacts sync, but they don't show up in the "people" app. they appear in the phone app, but not the actual people app.
can anyone help?
Im trying this now. What do people think of it so far. I was very please with pmf's work when using his 1.1.
"Call To Answer" Screen is still HTC
Just flashed this ROM. I must say, it is very fast and responsive. Great work!
I have one concern:
The lockscreen is Android 2.2 vanilla. However, the "slide to answer" screen is still the HTC screen. When testing, the screen was off. As soon as the call came in and the screen turned off, I saw the vanilla lock screen flash for a second (I believe it was the stock unlock screen, not the stock "slide to answer" screen) and then it was replaced with the HTC slide to answer screen.
Is anyone else having this experience?

Please add support to ROM Manager! I love being able to install straight to my phone while bored at work!
I don't think the facebook sync is working correctly, the full list did not appear. this stuff is getting annoying because I really love this rom so far.

Thanks. Yeah this is because the phone answer lock screen is controlled by the HtcPhone.apk, which is used in this ROM.

I haven't had issues with it, other than the first sync can take a while to show up. I find that firing up FriendStream can sometimes force it to sync.
Since there still hasn't been a rom specifically for the Optimus T yet (even though the optimus one roms work), I figured I'd make one..it wipes data, so backup your apps, and it wipes dalvik-cache, so the first boot will take a while, it'll sit at the LG logo for 40 seconds, then at the flashing android for 3 minutes. Every boot after that should be about 40 seconds.
What's been done so far:
Overclock kernel built from drellisdee's source-you need setcpu or overclock widget to enable it
ext2/3/4 removed, debug removed, optimised for the msm7227
tmobile boot animation removed, noatime & nodiratime added to mounts
Game demos, tmobile apps, drivesmart, gmail, facebook, and twitter removed
Quick Settings added (for easy wifi tether)
Gingerbread theme & keyboard
3d Gallery from cyanogen
Updated Market & Maps
Updated hosts file to block ads
LGHome replaced with Launcher Pro
Deodexed
Built from v10l-wifi calling enabled
Jit & Hardware Acceleration enabled
Dalvik heapsize set to 40
Stagefright disabled (I know it improves quadrant, but it also keeps some videos from playing, and I want everything to work out of the gate)
Probably some other stuff I forget
What is being worked on:
Nothing, I've completely lost interest in this phone.

Could you please port a full gingerbread theme ? I really love it.
I'm using void right know and I only managed to get the notification bar black + gingerbread icons.
As a comment to your ROM:
Try replacing the boot animation with a static image. I think the device will boot faster.
A ROM like that for the Optimus One will be great...
Anyway great work !

I've been going back & forth about the boot animation...I really like the way it looks, but it does seem to add 5-10 seconds to the boot time (maybe a lot more on first boot)
It's your ROM, you have to decide, not me/us. I thought that it would be better.
Any news on the gingerbread theme ?

While it's still in beta & unthemed, there's really not much need to, it's the default launcherpro setup with the ugly wet leaves background...I'll be working on the theme today (just saw the gingerbread theme, I kinda like it, I think that's what I'll go with), when it's done, I'll post screenshots.

Since optimus one roms work on the optimus t, the same thing probably works in reverse...either way, I don't want to release roms I can't test myself first, and I've seen some of Noeljn's work on the optimus one, and I don't think I can match it. But thank you for the compliment though.
THANK YOU. i WILL GIVE IT A TRY! SORRY KEYBOARD BROKEN

Have you destroyed your notebook ?
Have you got the Gingerbread theme to work ?
I was wondering about this change, "ext2/3/4 removed, debug removed, optimised for the msm7227" Debug removed ??? Also why did you remove ext2/3/4 ?
You have copies of some aps, you had calander 1.0 and 2.2(I think one is the widget though), Car Home 2.2 twice, etc. Check your work.
Some ideas I wanna throw at you I like from other roms
Extended APNs
Patch hosts file
Gapps removal (Get it down to the essentials, gmail, maps, I know there are a lot of gapps that can be downloaded later so it is more customizable to the user)
Video Camera Edit (Maybe try 720p ? Auto focus on video recording ?)
Remove more bloatware(Drivesmart, Facebook, ThinkFree Office, Twitter, Telenav GPS Navigation, Visual Voicemail, 3 Voice aps, youtube(Offer Drivesmart, Thinkfree, Telenav and the 3 voice aps as an optional zip, you can get rest from Market)
Maybe get some ideas from Cyanogen ?
I would wanna develop some stuff but I don't got time =\
Can you exchange the stock Gallery with the one from Cyanogenmod ? That one is extremely fast.

All duplicates are other parts of the program, there's carhome, carhome launcher, calendar, calendar provider, calendar widget, etc.
I think I did patch the hosts file, I can't remember now.
Video edits aren't something I'm good at.
The reason I didn't remove more bloatware at first is because I wanted opinions on what should be removed, on my phone, I remove everything, but I don't know what other people like.
I'm hoping to have beta 2 released tomorrow night, with the boot animation gone, dalvik-cache moved to /cache automatically, and the theme done other than the dropdown menu (if someone else wants to fix it they can, I hate theming & I'm not spending anymore time on it.)
Excelent. I can't wait to test it. Can you please answer my question too ? (about the Gallery, one post above)
Thanks !

Hi guys, I've got this p990 as my first android phone.
Years passed customizing WM... well air needed to be freshened!
Anyway down to my "problems"
A)
I hate the LG lockscreen, but I found no way to go back to default.
Also since I installed GO SMS PRO, received sms notifications continue to appear on it even after reading messages.
So I installed FlyScreen but don't like it that much.
Installed WidgetLocker and that suits me better, but I can't find any notification widget, something like a transparent overlay with the relevant info.
Maybe customizable. I've seen something like that in the Widgetlocker Themes, but even downloading theme doesn't fetch the widgets though.
Using android sliding bars for everything is really horrible.
B) how can I change the system icons (battery,wifi,etc)?
It's rooted, but I'm still running stock. Tried a Cyano nighlty but it didn't boot so I reverted to stock.
C) using GO SMS Pro, why do I have to select it as default on every reboot?
D) using ExtendedControls, reboot doesn't work although it got root permission. It gets stuck on the waiting window, system still works ok (I can go to home, and do everything). Who should I ask?
On a side note: since this phone runs on a tegra2, what would be the problem in flashing an honeycomb rom like asus transformer's?
Hey guys just a few quick questions here. Did anyone order the V40 from B&H?
If so I have a few questions about some of the system apps. Mainly does it have the stock lg messaging app or did they ditch that with the international version as well? Does the Google dialer from playstore work on the phone or is it blocked? Yes I know there's a patched version but I'm wondering about the one on Google Play. On the G7 it worked fine. And if someone could posts few screenshots for me that would be swell too. Looking to see settings, dialer and if possible the stock messaging app (if it was included)
Did not come with a LG Messaging app. Is compatible with the Google Dialer and Contacts. Installed both and then uninstalled com.android.contacts to remove the lg dialer and contacts, and everything is working fine. Also have done the same with calculator and clock so I could use more overlays with swift black. Settings look different from the V30, but probably similar to the G7. May attach screenshots later if I remember and have time.

Great thanks for this. How about lg calendar app?
It came with Google Messages (currently running 3.7.052) as the stock messaging app. I don't know about the normal version but the beta of the Google Phone (26.0222117411) app works just fine directly from the store. I've attached dialer and messaging screenshots with personal information cleared out.

Another question for the international one, if that's the B&H one. Can you turn off the camera shutter sound right from the app?
Can someone show me a picture of the theme app open? I want to see something that will be helpful moving forward and let me get a head start on a few things

Well if your taking requests a black out theme would be nice and battery saving....and whatever wallpaper you wannna go with as the creator.
Well I don't take requests per say but I sure do listen to people and try to cater as best I can. I will open a support, communication and feedback thread once I get something done. I've had quite a few people asking for pixel experience light and dark so that will be first followed by something else that I've been tinkering with and possibly an icon pack add on since some people prefer stock icons, with the icon pack they can have the choice
