DEPRECATED
just go try lineage or something
J3Time is a free ROM for the Galaxy J3 (2016), well, actually an TWRP backup.It is made to be lightweight (compared to TouchWiz) and to look pretty much like AOSP Android.
Features:
Almost everything TouchWiz related is removed,except SystemUI, framework and some other stuff.
All preinstalled bloat is removed.
SuperSU / Root is installed and works properly.
Xposed framework and Lollipop Xposed Installer are also installed.
AOSP-ish feeling to the ROM
Material Design theme is applied.No need for Samsung Account or Theme Store.
TouchWiz Home is removed and replaced with Nova Launcher for an AOSP feeling.
Included a pretty AOSP looking dialer , Android Messages , Google Contacts and the Clock app from Google.
Also included a lockscreen similar to the stock android one.
The ROM has Material Status Bar installed as a USER APP.It's used to make the status bar and notification pulldown look like stock android.
---- Feel free to remove it if it's too buggy for you, or if you'd like to theme the TouchWiz one instead.
Installation:
I was not able to make a flashable zip for TWRP or Odin, so you install this as an TWRP backup.
Download the ROM from here (About 1GB):
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BzUhV0AAkLSiS3NnQnp5NjZhblk
Extract TWRP.zip
Create TWRP folder on the internal storage
Place BACKUPS folder in the TWRP folder
Reboot to recovery and go RESTORE
Select the backup
Clear cache and reboot
If it bootloops make sure you have the J320F, didn't swipe to install SuperSU when rebooting from TWRP, or just try wiping the cache.

Hope I helped you with this ROM
Enjoy using it!
Galaxy j3 duos 2016
It works with my Galaxy j3 duos 2016. That has j320f chipset. But there is a problem with the "AOSP looking dialer". I can not quickly select the SIM card for the call.
Most Google programs and services I could disable without difficulties - even the playstore. I'm used to installing the APKs. Have many, many thanks. It's a great job! If I find some bugs, I'll let you know.
Hey, the dialer's dual sim function is in beta, btw this dialer isn't found anywhere in the play store so I don't know if there is a newer version.
If there is one I will replace this one.
Expect a new version of this rom soon.
If there is a new dialer version I will update it.
I am disabling Material Status Bar's status bar and leaving the notification shade only
The status bar will be made AOSPish with Flat Style Bar Indicators since that app is less buggy.
Thanks to you too for trying this ROM.
I found a solution. If I go in the system settings to SIM card manager, I can choose with voice call under prefered simcard "ask allways". Then the system asks me before dialing which SIMcard I would like to use for the call. It's like an old cell phone with dual SIM.
By the way, I just had a problem when I opened xposed installer. It came in red writing that "There Seems to be a known issue (" Samsung TouchWiz ROM ") message. Installing Xposed may not work or lead to severe problem ...
After I went to "Install / Update (Version 87)", I wanted to install over recovery. When I reboot, I got into the bootloop. I had no backup - my fault. Now I start again ... Have already formatted and re-installed your system. This time I make a backup before I start working with the xposed installer.
Hey there.
The xposed error means absolutely nothing.It's just the app detecting you have a samsung rom with TW.
As you can see the xposed is a custom build for TouchWiz
I can assure you it works perfectly fine, I have a few xposed modules on my phone and they work flawlessly.
The reason you bootlooped is becuase it installed a version of xposed not supported with Samsung ROMs.
Thank you for your information! I'm still a novice with Android, Custom ROM and Xposed framework. Surely I will destroy my system more often. But I have your ROM and TWRP. In the next few days, I will try to integrate XPrivacy into my installation. I want to gain control of my data as much as possible.
Good luck.
I can already tell you that XPrivacy works fine as I use it too.

When i Go into My twrp recovery,it doesn't detect anything and shows a blank page with nothing to choose from . I extracted twrp.zip via pc and then Copied the backup folder in and pasted it within the twrp folder of device internal memory. Please tell me how to deal with this situation

Please someone tell me the whole procedure to install custom rom. I am not able to install this rom . I Extracted the twrp.zip and moved it to the internal storage under twrp folder and placed the backups folder in that twrp file. When i move into twrp recovery and select restore it shows nothing to choose from. pls guide me how to solve this
@Mr.Reticent
Thanks for trying it out, I'm trying to do the updates at least monthly, and yes I updated the link
For your issue, I am an idiot and didn't include the TWRP folder like in the last version so you have to copy the BACKUPS folder inside and TWRP folder instead.
If i understood you correctly, you already did that.
First extract TWRP.zip
Create TWRP folder on the internal storage
Place BACKUPS folder in the TWRP folder
Reboot to recovery and go RESTORE
Select the backup
Clear cache and reboot
That should be a more clearly explained procedure.
I did that on my phone and it detected the backup as I already managed to bootloop it and anyways needed to restore.
Try the procedure again, if it doesn't work try creating a backup, deleting all the stuff inside the folder and replacing it with my stuff.
@MrViking
Don't know if it works for the fn, I guess you can try it,I'm pretty sure it will work, like 90% sure.I can see there is no big difference between the F and FN.
Works absolutely fine on my J320F.
Oh yeah, if any of you want it I can include Greenify with the rom ( app for hibernating apps so they waste less battery/ram/CPU time )
Expect a new update soon!
Will rework the power menu and update the status bar app to a beta branch with a ton of great features.

Thanks A ton. Finally installed the rom and it looks great with a lot of features but I have found some bugs like the rom is lacking the notification badge feature. I have received the messages on WhatsApp,facebook etc but it doesn't shows the number of messages I have received on the icon(hope u understood).Pls solve this problem in the latest update of the rom and if possible try to include magisk to hide root in any case the user wants it. Thanks a lot for ur effort dude and keep updating the apps within the rom . sorry I am asking for a lot :laugh:
@Mr.Reticent
Personally I don't like the badges and they are not in AOSP so I didn't enable them.
Go to app drawer
Open nova settings
Select notification badges
In upper right corner switch it on
Select either numeric badges or dynamic badges
If you selected numeric badges also install TeslaUnread from the PlayStore and follow the instructions.

After asking around, I determined there was some interest in a simple, mostly-stock ROM based on the official HTC Sense/Froyo v3.26.605.1 release with only essential changes made; so I decided to go ahead and create one.
ROM Details:
Based entirely off the off the the official HTC Sense/Froyo v3.26.605.1 release (pulled from signed RUU); which is being rolled out by Verizon via OTA as the final build.
Moved some stock applications to /data/app, so they can easily be removed. To be clear, these apps remain enabled but can now be optionally removed using any Android uninstaller, rather than having to do it manually. This includes: App Sharing, Adobe Flashplayer, Car Panel, Flashlight, GenieWidget, PDFViewer, Quickoffice, Teeter, My Verizon, 3G Hotspot and YouTube.
All apps placed in /data/app by the ROM will be automatically restored after a date wipe or factory reset (a special feature of this ROM). These apps can be freely uninstalled via Settings->Applications or the uninstaller of your choice. Note: They will return when the ROM is re-installed or upgraded.
Disabled applications which the majority seems to agree are bloat, unneeded or can installed from the Market. This includes: Amazon MP3, City ID, HTC Footprints/Widget, VZ Navigator, Skype. If you decide you would like to use any of these apps, the APKs are available in the "system/virtuous" directory.
Numerous customization options via ROM Manager, such as Virtuous' EZ-Customizer which allows removal of more stock apps without the use of adb or shell, status bar mods provided by pmf, Incredible Revolution theme and more.
Automatic Virtuous OTA upgrade notification and installation via ROM Manager.
Minor theme modifications to remove GPS locator icon in the status bar and add transparency to the notification pull down menu. Thanks to pardonmyfreedom (aka pmf) and aiccucs for doing the work.
Added the Busybox installer application to allow upgrades as they become available. When running the installer, make sure to select /system/xbin as the destination.
Updated Adobe Flash to the official release provided to N1 users via the Market.
Updated Google Search and Google Voice Search to the latest Market versions.
Updated Gmail 2.2.1. The default ROM includes 2.2, so this is a minor upgrade to the latest version available.
Audio fixes to correct slow playback ("devil voices") of Flash videos on certain sites.
Removed startup "Drooooooid" sound. It was annoying.
Added the bash shell for those who work in adb or ssh into their phones. Just run "bash" to use it (it is not the default shell for compatibility reasons).
Removed cdrom.iso to avoid being prompted to install Verzion/HTC hardware when the device is connected via USB.
Installation:
You must be rooted, have nand unlocked and be running a 2.x radio. Follow dadicus' guide for details on how to perform these steps.
Perform a nandroid backup of your current ROM, in case you change your mind or encounter issues.
If you are coming from another completely stock ROM (i.e. Sense 2.1 or 2.2), you may not have to wipe data. I obviously recommend wiping data (since it will eliminate any possibly bad/stale configuration), but the update script will not do so automatically during installation. Use your best judgement to determine what works best for you.
Wipes are NOT required for any upgrade to/from any 2.x version of the ROM; downgrades are a different story.
Apply the zip via Clockwork Recovery. It has not been tested with any other recovery.
Expect the first boot to take anywhere from 6-10 minutes. Subsequent reboots should be significantly quicker.
Disclaimer
As with any modification (ROM, patch, etc), you run the risk of damaging your device. While unlikely, it is important to consider this possibility before proceeding. I take no responsibility for any such damage, data loss or otherwise.
Download ROM Here
(Changelog)
Hboot Upgrade Instructions
As of Virtuous 3.2.0, hboot 0.92 is now required. This hboot shipped with the original Froyo OTA for the Incredible.
Download this file and place it at root of your sdcard.
Boot into the bootloader. There are several ways to do this. If you are already booted into Android, use Quickboot and select the Bootloader option. You can also use adb by typing "adb reboot bootloader". Or, simply power down the device. Once it is off, hold the volume down button and then press power.
Once in the bootloader, select the first option from the menu "bootloader". You should see a progress bar on the right side of the screen. If you do not, you did not perform step #1 correctly or your sdcard is not formatted FAT32.
You will then be prompted to confirm flashing boot, bootloader and recovery. Hit volume up to confirm and then reboot.
At this point hboot is upgraded. I recommend reinstalling Virtuous (either via ROM Manager or manually) just to be safe.

Add Footprints?
Thanks for this rom! I want to install footprints. I've tried with root explorer r/w on and off as well as astro. I've put the files in sytem/app, tried from disabled folder and even the sd card. It always goes through the install process correctley but always ends with
"application not installed". Any suggestions? Thanks

Thank you very much for this rom!
This looks great. I'm mildly sure this is sort of what jdkeclipse was trying to accomplish. This is how the OP is done well and done right. Thanks rmk40
You should just throw some screenshots in there regardless of the fact that it's a stock rom.

you will probably have to push it through recovery with adb. I have noticed that if I use root explorer to add things to system/app they usually will not work for some reason, and the only way it will is through recovery or if I make a small flashable zip file.
Thank you! The app works but the widget does not?
Rmk, you just released it and a newer leak showed up today. Are you by chance going to mod the new one as well with your touches?
Haha, this awesome. Right after u get done with the work A new leak is released. Regardless this is very much appreciated.

Since that's an HTC app, you'll need to do that via recovery. Boot into recovery, adb shell, mount /system and go ahead and copy/move the files.

We need to get it deodexed, figure out which bugs are present in the new leak, etc. As soon as I have something I feel confident works well, I'll go ahead and put it up.

you will need to do the same thing with the footprintswidget apk.
Updated to base on today's 3.21.605.1 OTA.
Got home to a pleasant surprise! Got 2.0 flashed, and got a quadrant score of ~1300. Flashed KiNgxKernel BFS #1 and jumped my quadrant up to ~1600 running at 1113mhz. Also got solid 36s in linpack.
Ty for throwing this together. Was exactly what I was looking for! Even down to the boot animation sound. Gotta figure out how to change the boot animation still... kinda new to this.
Anyway, solid work. Keep us posted if anything new shows up.
Is bump charging still needed or does the phone finally charge properly?
What we have here is a custom battery indicator for Desire HD ROMs.
It has been designed to look as close to stock as possible but has that extra special little something to make it stand out from the crowd. You'll see that this battery indicator mod is unlike most in that it offers the best of both worlds. It has the both a percentage indicator as well as a nice smooth charging animation. If you have a Desire HD, or a Desire HD based ROM on your device and like that stock look, you can't go wrong with my mod.
NOTE: The first upload, the one that does NOT say "GB.Sense" has only been tested on 1.84 based Desire HD ROMS and I can only guarantee it to work for users using a 1.84 based Desire HD ROM. Because I used the framework-res.apk from the 1.84 ROM, it may not work properly on other builds. If you decide to test it on an older build such as 1.32 or 1.72, please report your results.
NOTE 2: The 2nd file attached, the one that DOES say "GB.Sense", is for GingerSense builds. It has been built using files from the 2.36.405.8 build and only tested on CMYLXGO's Gingersense ROM. Please test and report your results on other builds.
NOTE 3: This is a complete framework-res.apk file. If you have a custom theme installed that includes the framework-res.apk file, this will revert your framework back to stock with only the custom battery indicator.
This includes:
1. Battery percentages from 0-100%
2. Smooth charging animation - looks MUCH nicer when charging.
3. Super simple update.zip that works EVERY SINGLE TIME
4. Does not affect the APN
5. Only shows percentage when NOT charging. When plugged in all you see is smooth charging animation.

In this post, you'll find a small update that will change the notification bubbles for the HTC Mail and Messaging apps.
In the 1.84 builds, HTC changed the way the notification bubbles appeared on the Mail and Messaging apps. They changed it from a green dot with a nice gradient to a black dot with a green ring around it.
This update will change them back to the original style green notification bubbles that actually match the rest of the notification bubbles and color scheme in the ROM.
NOTE: I took the MMS and Mail.apk's from the 1.84 build and therefore this MOD will not work on another build without bugs. To further my point, the older 1.32 and 1.72 builds already have green notification bubbles like depicted below.
NOTE2: This will NOT delete any of your settings/emails/messages when installing the update.
This includes:
1. MMS.apk and Mail.apk from 1.84 Desire HD ROM
2. Modified images to blend in and better match with the rest of the ROM.

As some of you may have noticed, that nifty "Advanced Power Menu" isn't really available as an update.zip for those of us using 1.84.661.1 builds. Well now that's a problem of the past because I present you with a fully functional Advanced Power Menu for builds based on the 1.84.661.1 Desire HD ROM.
NOTE: This will not affect anything on your device other than the menu that appears when you long-press the Red End Call Button.
NOTE2: It might take a long time for your device to boot back up into Android after installing this update. Be patient. It is rebuilding your Dex files and will boot soon.
This includes:
1. Modified android.policy.jar from 1.84.661.1 Desire HD ROM
2. 7 options instead of 3 - See screenshot
3. Hot reboot option when pressing restart from Power Menu
4. All options work perfectly.

I really hope you're kidding but just in case.. I updated the OP. You'll install it via Clockwork Mod Recovery.
I tried both with cmylxgo's 1.1.7 on my TMO HD2 (using clockwork, of course ) and they both caused a reboot loop. I'd love to have battery percentage w/o an extra app.

Hmmm. That didn't occur to me. I'll try and report back. Thanks.
EDIT: Strange indeed! It reboot looped after each of three attempts yesterday. I did it again just now and it worked this time. On a hunch I did it without clearing the caches. I was having root problems when I was installing yesterday, could that have interfered?

It's always possible that a preexisting issue could cause more issues as a chain reaction type deal. See the way I do it is this:
1. Backup my phone 100%
2. Install new ROM(Wipes data and everything else)
3. Install my 2 fixes above immediately after ROM Flash finishes.
4. Using CWM, restore data.
This way I end up with the most recent build, the most recent fixes and never lose anything.
anyway to get this... for people with sd builds?
i just need these !thanks
Cool Mods.. thanks a lot for this.. i will check it out!

In imilka's thread, he has instructions on how to do this on the first post:

I have implemented script, that would allow copying files to system easily, you won't have to know where to copy your file, either in app_r, or app.
How to use:
1) create 'root' folder on your sd card
2) create folder directory structure under it, where files should be copied
Examples:
1) need to modify framework-res in /system/framework, i should:
a) create 'root' folder on sd card
b) create 'system' folder inside 'root'
c) create 'framework' folder inside 'system'
d) put framework-res into 'framework' folder
e) reboot
2) need to put some file to /data, i should:
a) create 'root' folder on sdcard
b) create 'data' folder inside 'root'
c) put needed file there
d) reboot
Please, make sure 'root' folder is removed from sdcard after boot! Remove it manually if it hasn't been removed.

What you need to do is extract the zip files and then copy over the apk files using his root script. CWM will not work for his ROM.

Thank you,
Will try to do it and will report back.
EDIT:
Can easily replace the framework-res.apk by creating a root folder with following structure:
root/system/framework/framework-res.apk
I couldn't find where to put the META-INF Folder though ?????????????????????
I'd appreciate some help please !!!
EDIT 2:
THE CORRECT BATH TO PUT THE framework-res is:
root\sd-ext\sys-parts\framework_r
and no need to copy the META-INF folder any where ... Thank you

What we have here is a custom battery indicator for Desire HD ROMs.
It has been designed to look as close to stock as possible but has that extra special little something to make it stand out from the crowd. You'll see that this battery indicator mod is unlike most in that it offers the best of both worlds. It has the both a percentage indicator as well as a nice smooth charging animation. If you have a Desire HD, or a Desire HD based ROM on your device and like that stock look, you can't go wrong with my mod.
NOTE: This has only been tested on 1.84 based Desire HD ROMS and I can only guarantee it to work for users using a 1.84 based Desire HD ROM. Because I used the framework-res.apk from the 1.84 ROM, it may not work properly on other builds. If you decide to test it on an older build such as 1.32 or 1.72, please report your results.
NOTE 2: This is a complete framework-res.apk file. If you have a custom theme installed that includes the framework-res.apk file, this will revert your framework back to stock with only the custom battery indicator.

Now included in my unity theme, available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12057423
Hey guys, just starting some to theme some system apps for an upcoming project of mine (unityMOD, basically trying to bring some unity, in this case dark blacks, to the OS to match the hardware etc) and I thought some people might like to see my Camera.apk theme.
I always found the weird grey and black speckled background weird, so I changed it to black and changed a few buttons, outlines etc. I think it looks quite nice personally, so I thought I'd just share it

OK, here's the update.zip's. I have tested the CM7Camera.zip (I use CM7 obviously) but haven't had time to test the other one, so if anyone could just let me know how it goes, that would be appreciated.
Place the required .zip file (CM7 or Stock/Axura) on your SD Card storage
Boot into CWM Recovery
Use volume buttons to select 'install zip from sdcard' and power to select
Use volume and power to select 'choose zip from sdcard'
Find the .zip file you placed earlier
Using volume and power, select 'Yes - Install xxx.zip'
Reboot, and you're done!
Downloads
[CM7]
Camera.apk
CM7Camera.zip
[Stock/Axura/MoDaCo - thanks Master]
CameraGoogle.apk
StockAxuraCameraGoogle.zip
Master™ has made a white version of this, available here
Notes
[CM7 Based ROMs] If you are having troubles actually seeing the changes after successfully applying Camera.apk, make sure you are using the System theme in Theme Chooser.
[General] If you are having issues, check and see if you are using the correct download version. Stock ROMs and Axura use CameraGoogle.apk and CM7 (possibly others?) use Camera.apk. I will try and make this irrelevant in my update.zip, but for now just take note.
I'm using Axura 1.1.2.0 and the camera app just FC's.
Probably because of the ROM.
I'll try tomorrow sometime when I load up CM7 or something.
Looks fantastic, though!
I love simple black on this phone. It is absolutely gorgeous.

Thanks for the Axura mention, I haven't personally used it, so I don't know what Master has changed for it. Has he themed Camera.apk at all?
Thanks for that though, I also love the blacks on it! I just absolutely hated that grey speckled stuff!
Hope you get to use it soon somehow

I do not believe that he has skinned it, but I could be wrong. I hate the stock camera app so I have only ever opened it once since launch, haha.

I've never tried it personally, but you could test it for me if you want
If that doesn't work though don't worry, I have a copy of stock camera to restore if you need.
I can't see why not though, ill see if it works with root enabled ES in a minute.
Edit: ES doesn't seem to like performing operations from /system even with the root option, so just as a test, copy your current Camera.apk to somewhere safe, then delete the one in /system/app. If it lets you, then you should be right to just move my themed Camera.apk in its place.

I copied the stock camera app and moved it into my SD card. Then I deleted it and moved the themed camera app into it's place and rebooted. It wasn't appearing anywhere so I went back into it and tried to install it but it kept saying "application not installed" so idk what I can do now
I really want this modded camera app too! I can't adb push it either, I'm having a lot of problems installing the sdk and drivers

use root explorer to install apk
1. get the XXX.apk to sdcard
2. open root explorer
3. find the XXX.apk you are wanting to install
4. long press the XXX.apk file and choose copy options (you will see the paste and cancel boxes at bottom of screen)
5. back out to system/app/XXX.apk and paste file
6. long press XXX.apk and change permissions.
These should be checked: (1)User/read, (2)Group/read, (3)Others/read and (4)User/Write
If you get this WARNING. You cannot paste here because the file is read-only. this is ok. Look to the top of screen and you will see line like this. 124.24 used, 379.70mb free r/o [Mount R/W]. Tap the [Mount R/W] colored box so it shows [Mount R/O]. Now try the the paste and the change permission process. When done reboot.

Which ones should be checked off?
To keep it simple. Check the permission of another app in the system/app files. The permissions are all the same.

I used root explorer daily when I was flashing nightly builds and this is the way I install boot animations and framework.apk etc. It may be missing one step in the install precess.
I edited my post earlier for in hope the permissions checks are clearer to the readers.
I don't flash gapps anymore when on cm rom. I install the themed market, I like this, and go from there. I am confident in the process.

@SubyWill
I use a camera apk that is totally blacked out. I just installed the op's camera apk. It installed. This one and the camera button, picture viewer and video images all have a greyed ring around them.
Can u please make it to where we can flash it?
Hello everyone. I just bought my phone 3 months ago, and i'm little tired of stock rom, because of some lag and bugs it have. So i decided to flash some CM7. Really don't know anything about flashing and rooting. Was reading some threads on this forum, but there's so many information that at the end decided to create my own thread. Hope someone will have a little bit of time and reply it.
My phone info: (it's not rooted, just stock version out of the box)
Model: LG-P990
Android version: 2.3.4
Baseband version: 1035.21_20110725 (what is that?)
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9
Build number: GRJ22
LGE Version: LGP990-V20a
1. So first of all i would like to make a backup, so if something went wrong i could recovery my phone. Maybe you could suggest some not very difficult tool for that.
2. What should i do next, wipe, root, flash, kernel rewrite? Maybe someone could link me or write how to do it step by step.
3. Which rom and kernel to use? What are difference between them (kernels and roms)? I prefer battery life > bugs > speed > customization.
P.s. I really don't know much about doing what i just wrote, please don't be mad Thank you for your help.
First of all you should root your device, this is generally the first thing to do. I believe I used super one click for this, here is a guide for doing so: http://androidadvices.com/how-to-root-lg-optimus-2x-p990-tutorial/ also there are some guides here around on xda where you will be able to follow a step by step tutorial for rooting
For easy backup I would recommend Titanium backup. Search for it on the market it will show up there furthermore you should always backup your phone through clockwork mod recovery. Clockwork mod is an app you install after rooting and you access recovery by flashing recovery and then booting into it. It is also from here you will be "flashing" your custom rom of choice
So in a step by step tutorial here's what to do:
1. Rooting
plenty of guides are found on this lg optimus 2x forum with links and guides as for how to root your phone. Afterwards you should check if it was done properly, you can do this with root checker simply download it from the market and check it
2. Downloading your custom rom:
Next step is to download your custom rom and throw it onto your phones SD-card.
You can choose anything you like but I would recommend the build in my sig link is here
now for kernels, you don't really need any :b you will be perfectly fine with whatever you already have here But if you do want to flash a custom kernel aswell it is virtually the same as flashing a custom rom
3. Make a backup of your phones apps and contacts:
Making backups is really easy, just download titanium backup from the market to backup your apps and backup your contacts through the phones built in adress book.
4. Boot your phone into recovery:
This is how it looks:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
First of all, install rom manager this is an app found in the market just search for it and it will be there. Next use the app to flash clockworkmod recovery (yes thats the top button in the app :b). Then when this is done reboot into recovery. When here your phones screen will not be used to navigate, instead use your volume rockers to navigate and the power button to select.
When here you should make a nand-backup of your phone, this is basically a backup of everything on your phone and it can be used to restore your phone should anything go wrong here
This is somewhat like what your recovery would look like:
From here choose "backup/restore" and here choose backup. Now your phone will make a backup
Also before flashin you will have to choose both of the following options:
1. Wipe data/factory reset
2. Wipe cache
5. Flash your rom (and custom kernel):
Now, finally, you will see some improvements :b Still navigating ClockworkMod recovery choose install zip from sd card, then find your rom and choose it. Now the flashing begins and your phone will do this for some time, once done reboot your phone and you're done!
GL and HF, i hope this helped you
1. First you need to root your phone. Rooting your phone won't erase your data. Use this guide to root your phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=953182
This method works flawlessly and is really easy!
After rooting, you can check if it worked, by looking for the Superuser app in your app drawer, or download the root checker app and check for yourself.
Also, after you rooted your phone, you need to install the following apps: Rom Manager and Titanium Backup. With Titanium Backup, you can backup all your apps and restore them. Consider buying this app, because it's really worth the extra money. Use any SMS/Contacts backup app to backup your contacts. (Don't forget to grant Titanium Backup Superuser access)
Afterwards, you open Rom Manager (again give this app also superuser access) and select the option flash recovery. Clockworkmod recovery mode is just a system which allows you to flash custom roms and kernels. Make sure you flash the O2X recovery and not the G2X, because you have a P990. Clockworkmod Recovery version 5.0.2.0 is good enough. You can enter recovery mode with ROM Manager or reboot into it. When your phone is off, you can boot into recovery manually by holding the power and volume down button until you see the second LG bootscreen with the blueish background.
2. First you need to download the following things and put them on your SD card:
- Any ROM (Cyanogenmod 7 or 9)
- Any kernel (Cyanogenmod Kernel for CM7 or CM9)
- Google Apps (for Gingerbread or Ice cream sandwich)
Afterwards, boot into recovery mode. You can navigate through the menus with the volume buttons and the power button. Also I would recommend you to make a backup of your current LG rom in recovery mode. (Backup/Restore - Backup - Yes) Keep this backup if you ever need to return your phone to stock in order to send it to LG.
In recovery mode choose the option:
- wipe data/factory reset
This option won't erase your root, only your current ROM and apps (but you should have made a backup by then)
After this is done, choose the option:
- wipe cache
This option is necessary in order to flash a rom
Then select the following option:
- install zip from sdcard
Browse through your sdcard and first install the rom. After this is done, install another zip and install the Google Apps package. This package includes the Android Market. Afterwards, you could install another zip, which is the kernel, but this is optional. Obviously you need to find the kernel zip and install it.
After installing all this you should be done and you should select reboot system. This will reboot your phone normally into the rom. Note that the first boot in a new rom always takes some time.
3 I would advise the combination in my signature. This combination is very smooth and fast.
Hope this helped!
Gosh this community is so helpful

Nope I don't think so, many people are having the same problem. What you can do is to put your sd-card in a card reader and add files through there. That's what I do anyways :b
EDIT::
Have you checked if you have the correct drivers installed? go check in the device manager and if it says that no drivers are installed (or no correct drivers, anyways) try and install them automatically. This worked for me
Umm, I'm quite new here, so I don't exactly know how it works, but shouldn't this thread (post #3 especially) be "Sticky"?
Cause when I started to root/flash my O2x this all-in-1 post could save me a lot of time.. There is quite everything you need when you know nothing about changing a rom. And if there is something missing, you know what you need to search for, right?

Yes it should, but the truth is, this process is basically the same for every android phone out there, the only difference is the rom you choose really. I'm pretty sure there is an even more detailed guide somewhere out there
Thank you for help everyone, u helped me alot.
I just installed custom kernel/rom.
Rom: temasek's UNOFFICIAL BUILD RC1-85
Kernel: [CM7/MIUI Kernel][KANG][APR02] ETaNa with Spica (c) OTF ToolKit
When i installed all this, i missed Google Play and account sync, so i downloaded some "gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip" and installed with Rom Manager. I don't know why, but google play crashes very very often. Maybe i did something wrong?
And how the hell should i select ringtone from my SDcard? Because when i click Phone Ring tone theres only some main ringtones and no "select from" options.
Oh and the last one, why the hell drawer is so lagy? Because of inscripted ADW? It's very anoying.
Thanks again.

You've done something wrong when flashing temasek's kang, I get google play immediately, don't need to flash gapps and it doesn't crash, I would do a full wipe and reflash if I were you.
To select ringtones you will have a folder in your sdcard media -> audio -> ringtones. You have to put the desired ringtones in that folder.
My drawer is also laggy. Just put the apps you use in your home screens and don't use it
Hope I helped! Cheers!

Hmmm theres no such a folder called media in my sdcard. And when i create it and move mp3 file to it it doesnt appear in ringtone selection. Do i need to restart my phone when i move ringtones to that folder?
When i was flashing new rom i did that. First i made a recovery, then wiped my phone, then clicked install zip from SD card and clicked my rom file. It said that flashing was successful. Then did the same for kernel. And finally rebooted my phone. Everything went well, phone turned on, no errors .. nothing. I installed latest version of that rom, i linked it before.
It seems google play not crashing anymore, i dont know why, but it works. I didnt do anything. Other problem appeared. When i installed GAPPS, Car Home app was installed. I removed it with Titanium Backup successfully. But sometimes in my bottom bar (where clock, battery and other stuff are), it appears. When i slide that bar down it says click to close Car Home. Its very anoying. I tried to look with root explorer for that app in my phone, no clue. How the hell should i remove it? Because i cant find it anywhere. Thanks
Android 4.4.3 - STOCK OS - DEBLOATED - 64bit
Hello everyone. Lets jump straight to the point. This here is a backup made with TWRP from the STOCK OS for the HTC Desire 510 64bit. The few plus sides are that is DEBLOATED and that it uses a kernel that has write protection removed. Just a side note: I am trying to make a flashable ZIP for this but I'm having issues. I always get boot loops. So for now this is your only option.
If you are familiar with TWRP and backups and all that stuff you can skip the next parts and download the ROM, If not, I advise you to read carefully the whole thread if you don't want to brick your device.

What is changed?
Not much is changed.
Bellow are the app replacments I made:
1. Sense Home ---> NOVA Launcher
2. Sense Messages ---> Google Messages (Material Design)
3. Sense Calculator ---> Xlythe Calculator (Material Design)
4. Sense Calendar ---> Google Calendar (Material Design)
5. Sense Clock ---> Google Clock (Material Design)
6. Sense File Manager ---> ES File Explorer
7. Sense Weather ---> AccuWeather
4. Sense Keyboard ---> Google Keyboard
I removed a lot of HTCs and Google’s useless apps and other things, that are taking up space and resources.
From Google apps you have left:
1. Google Play Store
2. Google Chrome
3. Google Play Games
4. Google Drive
4. YouTube
5. All other background apps and services that are required for the Google apps to function properly.
From HTC apps you have left:
1. Camera app
2. FM Radio
3. Gallery (I couldn't find a decent replacement)
4. Music
5. Photo Editor
6. LockScreen
I have removed the HTC Browser, Zoe, E-mail and other useless stuff from HTC.
I have included:
1. Clean Master Lite - It's much faster than the full blown app and gets the job done. Lots of people hate it but it works like a charm on this device.
2. DiskInfo - With this little app you can see all of the partitions on your device. Regardless if you are S-ON or S-OFF.
3. Glim Lite - A set of beautiful Material design icons for NOVA launcher.
I didn't include an E-mail app because the Play Store is full of them and I couldn't choose. This choice is up to you.
How to install it?
First of all you need an unlocked bootloader with a TWRP - custom recovery installed on your device.
To unlock your bootloader go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-510/development/bootloader-unlock-htc-desire-510-t2910233. Follow that tutorial to get your bootloader unlocked. After a successful unlocking you'll need a custom recovery.
Download this file: https://dl.twrp.me/a11ul/twrp-3.0.2-0-a11ul.img. This is the latest TWRP recovery for our device. Now we need to flash this file on the device:
Before starting put the contents of the ZIP file on to your SD card. And make sure that it has this folder structure:
Code:
--SD CARD
--TWRP
--BACKUPS
--Your device serial number (The name of this folder should be the serial number of your device otherwise TWRP won't see the backups in this folder)
--2016-04-17--13-49-21_KTU84L_release-keys (Don't change this, I don't know what will happen if you do)
1. Power off your device by pulling the battery out and putting it in again.
2. Press the Volume Down and Power Buttons until you see the HBOOT screen.
3. Press the Power button again to enter Fastboot mode.
4. Connect your phone with your PC using an USB cable.
5. Now open your terminal (I'm using Ubuntu but it's same in Windows as well) and type:
Code:
fastboot devices
This will show you an output like this:
Code:
--your devices serial number-- fastboot
If it doesn't show you an output like that then you probably didn't install the drivers correctly or you have a faulty USB cable.
If your output is the same as above than we can move on.
This command will flash the TWRP recovery on your device:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery /full/path/to/the/recovery.img
Example:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery /home/denny/Downloads/twrp-3.0.2-0-a11ul.img
Now you have TWRP on your device.
To boot TWRP press the Power button to go back to the HBOOT screen and navigate to the RECOVERY option with the volume keys and again press the Power button. After a few seconds you'll see your new recovery.
Restoring the backup
First we need to wipe any potential data that will cause conflicts with the new system.
1. Tap on "Wipe"
2. Tap on "Advanced Wipe"
3. Select all but leave the Micro SDCard option unchecked.
4. Swipe the slider to wipe the data.
After that is complete press on the house button on the lower end of the screen.
Now we are going to restore the backup:
1. Tap on the "Restore" button.
2. At the lower left corner tap on "Select Storage" button.
3. Choose "Micro SDCard" option and press OK.
4. Now you should see the backup folder. Open it.
5. Select "Boot" and "System" and swipe to start the restoring process.
6. Press "Reboot System" after the restoring has finished.
After you setup you system apply the Glim Lite icon pack to NOVA launcher.
Bellow are some screenshots of the new look.
Big thanks to:

@rbheromax - for making a kernel with write protection removed.
@patrik.KT - for developing the TWRP recovery for our device.

BETA testers for OTA updates
I have managed to enable a function for our ROM to receive OTA updates directly from me. This will make updates more easy to be deployed and cuts down the time for me to upload the whole ROM and for you to download it and flash it. Be advised that this is for testing purposes only (for now). I don't know how much stable the ROM will be after receiving an update.
By flashing the ZIP file below you acknowledge that you are wiling to become a BETA tester and that you do this at your own risk.
Step 1.
You need to download the ZIP file below this post and flash it like any normal flashable ZIP.
The ZIP file contains a new app for OTA Updates, a new lib file for proper functioning of the app and an edited build.prop file. The build.prop file contains information to tell the app where to check if new updates are available, so please do not edit it yourself.
The app will say that there are no updates. That is not a bug, error or a glitch. Currently there are no updates. When an update is deployed the app will send you a notification.
Step 2.
Send an email to [email protected] to confirm that you have downloaded and flashed the ZIP file and that you are willing to be a BETA tester. Please use a valid email because I will be contacting you to share feedback about the new updates and discuss any issues you might have.
Reserved
Thanks a lot for the sharing!
I will definitely test it
BTW you say that you have problem - bootloop with the .zip, did you tried to flash boot.img manually after flashing of the .zip?
Also instead of gallery I use simply photos by google
Or there is also lightweight Gallery app by google (com.android.gallery3d). You will probably find it in GAPPS

Thanks for those tips. I will definitely take a look at the lightweight gallery.
I tried flashing the boot.img manually but nothing. I've got it to boot up just once but there was no wi-fi. That leads me to belive that the permissions in the updater-script are not set up properly but also could be something else. If you have experience with updater-script do you think that you could help me out?
Unfortunately I don't have any bigger experiences with updater-script
Few times I edited it, but never so big one like installing ROM...
Anyway can you sand me the zip? I will try to look, but I don't promise anything
hi,
thanks so much for this Debloate.:good:
Well done developer! Phone itself is 10x faster without the bloatware apps on! Thank you so much developer!
Thanks a lot for your sharing. I finally have a nice going device. Its the best solution currently for this phone.

No problem, if you have any further problems don't hesitate to ask
would be nice to have HTC Sense UI and email app left and htc foto editor and gallery removed and replaced by Google Photos, I don't understand why stick to ES File Explorer which does have in app ads rather have native file explorer, also I don't understand why I need that clean tool when android is managing ram just fine in this version.
Sorry if that sound rude, language barrier
Keep up with good work.

No problem, any feedback is more than welcome. The Sense UI will remain, the theming I'm gonna make will only be on the icons and maybe the QuickSettings layout of the buttons, nothing too big to ruin the Sense feel. I might get back the e-mail app if I can't find a descent replacement for it. In the next update the HTC Gallery, alongside the Photo Editor will be replaced by Google Photos. Also the ES File Explorer, I'm gonna replace it with something that is adds free, simple to use but versatile. The Clean tool is not much for RAM as it is for Junk removal. Here is an example: Yesterday I was listening to some music on YouTube for about two hours. After that, I run the Junk Removal tool....It removed somewhere around 900Mb of useless data. You see how you can free up some space with it. I plan to keep it, but If I get negative feedback about it I will remove it.
Again thank you for your feedback.
E.g. Total Commander is simple and nice explorer without adds
BTW now when you have root, you can install "adblocker" app
deodex is not good for this device beacuse have small memory and charge it useless, odex files have sufficient space in system.
my oppinion

Thank you for your opinion. The main reason that I deodexed the ROM is to save up on the size of the actual download. I'm currently running the deodexed version on my phone and it works just fine. But still it will remain in BETA version unless I get positiv feedback about it.
Guys, I recall what I said, don't listen to me I'm a noob
