This is a project to mix and port LG Spectrum + LG Nitro HD ROM to our LG O3D.I haven't got myself very far still, just started to play with it yesterday.As you guys can see, there is a lot of work to do and I need help. It is still buggy slow, but Launcher rolls much smoother than our LGHome one. The ROM is mixed with my V0.2 right now, but the idea is to use as much as possible from the other devices framework.
If you want to help, just if you really want to help, send me a PM and I will send you a link about my progress.
This is how it looks like:

TO DO LIST ON POST 2
To do list:
-Make new LGHome2.apk to load the app drawer.
-Make new LGHome2.apk to load widgets.
-I guess there is a USB Host drivers in the system dump.Have to investigate it and make get it to work on O3D
-Keep porting the rest of the system to our O3D
Reserved to me 2.
well...its looks really cool
best of luck on this....i hope you manage to work it out
thanx again for your continuous hard work man
looks promising,
It looks very good actually. Minimal lag there IA what I saw. And I noticed the important essentials are working, phone, wick. Wasn't able to obviously see if you got the GPS or data to work or even Bluetooth but definitely seems very promising my friend. Really good job bro.

Looks good Thiaiz...
The intouch widget looks sweet

that is still not ready? There are bugs? I would try it but if you still have problems when I try it will be completely finished ...
thiaiz hold my account and send me a pm when I can use this ... I love your new rom keep changing for the better
ps. I knew who listened to my own music here because I use only your roms: D lol
sorry for my bad english
Updated the first page with a new video + 2nd post with a small to do list for those who want to help.
I think this is the way to go, as you guys can see it is way smoother than our launcher
Great work man..I can see much difference and more smoothness in this launcher..u think it's gonna be OK to use at the end??wish it would..
still can't downloaded?
Got it working nice, but FC started again.
Can we now use a bluetooth keyboard??:0

When I get at least app drawer to load the app list. It is crazy how the launcher still very smooth even with the 7 screens totally full with widgets. Cant understand why LG havent released an small OTA update just with this new Launcher to us.
We can't understand a lot of LG's doing... Thank god we have a few devs onboard. Maybe LG should try to buy some devs too. Good luck with the launcher.

great work dear ThiaiZ..
i've a suggestion.. give it some animations.. when opening or closing windows or moving from one to another.. opening and closing launcher menu or unlocking animations.. it would be
perfect if it take pace!
ThiaiZ, What news about your disk? And whether there will be in him something new except the house screen. I am the admirer of your disks, but last 2.5 very astable in comparison with yours 2.4 (but there video record not so good) I am sorry for my English, I write from the translator
Nice to hear something about USB Host. Hopefully it work
which is the best light, fast and smoothest rom available for htc chacha. stability and battery concerned.
I hate to blow my own trumpet but I'd recommend this one
^^what that guy said
I'll toot his horn too. I'm a new member of this forum, and just started using this guy's rom. Nice, fast, and free of a lot of pre-installed clutter. Also, easy to install.

Thanks, glad you're enjoying the ROM
Just a couple of questions, so I hope you see this because I haven't posted ten times yet...
#1 no American or Canadian English setting (on initial setup, and under language settings)
#2 where's the Beats Audio?
Still love it, though. Noticeable difference in speed without background apps, and much better internal storage. Also, mildly improved battery life.

It's based on the stock EU ROM, so no, there's no American or Canadian English. I could add them but it'd add to the size of the system or no real reason. I'm sure you can live with the Queen's English
The Beats Audio doesn't show up anywhere in the UI, it just works its magic in the background. I even notice a difference when I use it with my cheap £20 eBay headphones so I know it's working
If you've seen other ROMs with the Beats Audio showing up as a setting on the UI, that's probably because they have the Music app from ROMs of newer phones. I might see if I can get that ported to my ROM now, come to think of it. Thanks for that idea
P.S. to further improve battery life, go to your sound settings and turn off all the sensor based stuff if you haven't already, that makes quite a difference!
Hmmm...haven't noticed a difference with my 20 buck Panasonics, or in my car, though that's with an FM transmitter (a good one, though).
I guess I'll live with the Queen's English, though the patriotic side of me cringes, eh?...
Weird, maybe it depends on the music you listen to. Stuff with heavy bass sounds better at least
God save our gracious Queeeeen
I just tried to stick the /system/apps folder from a Sensation XE onto my ChaCha... The ChaCha didn't like it too much. I'll experiment more later, see what I can get working. Looking around the XE ROM, there's certainly stuff here which shows whether or not Beats is working in the actual UI, so I might add some of that in if it plays nice with the ChaCha.
Cool! Thanks for all your work. Is it possible to move these posts to your thread in the development forum, so others can see what's going on?

Also, the facebook key doesn't work anymore. Can this be sorted out in an upcoming relase--is it possible to have the key open up the Tinfoil app?

That's something else I'm looking into. I know it can be done, others have done it, I've just got to edit the right files in my ROM so it goes to Tinfoil.
I promise I'll start posting there once I cross this ten post threshold. I understand why they do it, and it clearly has an effect on the quality of the posts, but it's still annoying .
light weight rom
here is the finest rom with good set of apps... i have been using it for months now.... there is only one issue that it doesn't shutdown the phone... seems like there is some problem with the shutdown process... but it doesnt hurt because it's nothing that we usually use....

To confirm, I am going to try and implement a fix to the dialler bug this week when I continue work on my ROM. My first priority is Aroma at the moment but it's on my list of things to do.

Glad to hear that. Ur ROM was my 1st ROM i installed after Root this device.
Original ROM is good for user who have less experience in Android or someone love Sense UI of HTC. CM7 is only good for Tech guys.
Stock ROM feel on CM7?
I have been using Chacha for almost half year now, and I like it to core. Have tried almost all ROMs so far. CWM's backup/restore functionality is pure bliss. At times when your hands are itchy, go ahead, mess up your system, do all your experiments. When done, just restore and you are back to your normal mood! Excellent!!
About the ROMs, I try them a lot, but finally do settle down to ROMs based on stock, as my daily ROMS. These are ROMS which I try my own with some experimental versions, or ones available here like from Hexgore . The reason is, there are quite a bunch of apps on Stock ROMS which are perfectly tuned for Chacha's small screen, and hence I find them more efficient than other alternative apps. Here are apps I find too good and difficult to part from.
Mail App
Dialer App
Messages App
I agree that there would be a lot better apps (like K9 for mail). But the easy of bigger icons, easy to tap organization of icons, just make be feel to stay with this mail app.
Now, coming to point, Will it be possible to get these apps work in non-Stock environment. Similar to Gapps package, if we can get to package these apps, it will be great.
I myself, will try these experiments one by one, and report my observations. But just would like to know if there are any like-minded people like me. Please comment. Thanks.

Eagerly waiting for your next nightly.I would be posting suggestions to you as and when i try out your new nightlies.

As far as S4 theme goes I can only theme the Stock Launcher and stock APPs! Thus meaning that only small things can be ported. Nothing to big right now. And I will work on all the other stuff in the next release!

As you have answered the previous post.As,the other guy,rishiandri said ,apart from those things,the multitasking ability of this rom isnt good,when i play music in walkman and also play a game like temple run ,it stucks a lot.I would like you to improve on that.Also the boot animation as I had mentioned before,its not centred ,it is displayed towards right side.Either remove it or make it proper.Also remove those micromax apps ,especially that torch light,because Micromax A89 doest have a flash light,replace with a screen light.Remove micromax apps also ,use more sound mods and make it better.
Can you bring an option for themes in settings like we have on Cyanogen mod roms.If possible try it.And please do remove the micromax apps,it not good at all.Rest all are good ,we want next nightly with more improvements as mentioned by me and rishiandri.We know you will do it.:good::good:
All hail Droid Premium.

Hey Mr.Droid premium,
I have noted one thing that Micromax A89 has linux kernel version 3.0.13 whereas Xperia tipo has kernel 3.0.8 only ,but xperia tipo custom roms battery life is too good,with a good usage it stands easily for almost 48 hours.So,with an updated kernel ,we should be having better battery life,isn't it? Can you explain me?
i expect your reply to my two posts soon.
Thanks.

ah.. the xperia tipo is only a 800mhz single core processor also with only adreno 200 gpu.. also it has 1500mah.. which is better than a89's battery which 1450mah... the Qualcomm MSM7225AA architecture.. is meant to have less battery consumption. The micromax a89 has lot of heating issues which makes the battary drain faster.. and i think micromax has used some local low capacity battery and renamed it as 1450mah.. :crying: .. the kernal doesnt matter so much about the battery drain.. some people reported that some galaxy battery. similar ones.. have been giving a way battery life to the mobile.. so if u go to the market.. you can try batteries which fit.. and it would be better ..

Hey dude,
I accept your suggestion ,but kernel updates are provided for greater web based application support,smoothness ,better graphics rendering and all other internal app operations are due to the kernel or core files.So we are having a dual core processor ,so there must be better multitasking and low battery usage when not needed based on the kernel.But, as you said,apart from these the quality of battery is also important where micromax is really too bad.So there must be some way,Lets see what our Droid premium has to give us in his next update.
Also,the galaxy battery you told doesnt work,it has mostly given more heating issues and its common sense.How can some other battery which is not tested for this device work as expected?Some even say,its a rumour and not fit at all.?
Lets wait for Droid premium's next update.

Lets wait for Droid premium's next update.

yea lets wait for the next update.. but my device stand by time increased a lot.. did u try mtk6577 governor changer? ondemand keeps the phone's core idle.. and it saves lot of battery.. a custom kernal would do the job.. lets wait for the next update :good:

Yup i know about that..
I have created this thread because i lots of lots of spamming by the users.So i decided there must be a thread which solves your queries and prevent spamming I also like to request moderators to make this thread sticky.
Now we start our Faq.
F>A<Q
First we go universal.
Q1)Is our DEVICE or this ROM can play HD games?
Ans)Most probably this depends upon "HARDWARE" not software,our device is using a "OUTDATED" Gpu so don't expect that it will run all the HD games,It can run Few HD games but they are likely to be laggy.You can remove laggyness if you are on ICS by using chainfire3D,don't ever try chainfire3D on JELLYBEAN.Each Rom more or less has the same capability to Run the games.
Q2)Is your rom is good at "Multitasking"?
Ans)Now this depends also on hardware like"RAM" and "PROCESSOR"our device is having just enough Ram to run things smoothly but we have a good Processor i.e 1GHz dual core Based on Cortex A9 by Mediatek.Multitasking should be good with almost all the Rom but unlike HD gaming we cannot do much But in this section we can do lots of improvement by using various scripts and tweaks for example
1)SUPERCHARGE V6
2)PROJECT XTREME.
Q3)My "Battery" is draining fast after installing your ROM why ?
Ans)It depends upon most probably on your "KERNEL","YOUR USAGE","AMOUNT OF BRIGHTNESS" and "GOVERNOR and I/O SCHEDULER" so don't blame any rom dev.
Q4)Which "Rom" is the most Stable and best and have good feature like XXXX out there?
Ans)Ok First understand that there is no "BEST" word exist in the world of Android(Thanks for the tip buddy @diestarbucks)Even cyanogenmod is not satisfying people's need out there so how you can expect it here, for stability use "STOCK" if you want and feature wise it totally depends upon YOU,so don't create unnecessary thread asking The "BEST ROM" and the MOST IMPORTANT THING- Please don't ask that this rom is good or bad "JUST TRY IT YOURSELF"
Q5)Can we use "THUNDERZAP KERNEL" with JELLYBEAN ?
Ans)NO.
Q6)I have another mobile from "MICROMAX" can i REQUEST anything in this "DEVICE FORUM"?
Ans)No,you cannot do that this WHOLE SECTION is specifically for "MICROMAX A110" So don't request anything about another device.Instead you can send a pm to the RESPECTIVE DEV/OP.
Q7)I want to mode my "SYSTEMUI" but i am not able to do it what i do now ?
Ans)Contact any RT(Recognized themer)or simply just contact @BOND1987.
Q8)What type of "PROBLEMS"can i post on XDA
Ans)You can post any "HARDWARE" as well as any "SOFTWARE" problems,but don't post like "My mobile has fallen from roof of my building screen has broke now what should i do"
Q9)My mobile is using same "Hardware"but company is different and after flashing your "ROM" i am not getting mobile signals WHAT TO DO ?
Ans)The answer is simple just replace the "Modem.img" from your stock ROM.
F>a<q for lewa
I have seen users are spamming lewa thread more frequently than any other tread so i have decided to create this specifically for lewa
F>A<Q.
Q1)I didn't see any "NOTIFICATION" of apps like whatsapp and facebook WHY ?
Ans)Just lock it in the memory by Longpress home button and just press that lock button,you will see your notifications.
Q2) "GOOGLE PLAY" not working properly WHY?
Ans) Just Clear Cache if this not works then Clear Data also.
Q3)"WIFI" frequently disconnects WHY?
Ans) LEWA Team is working on that don't blame OP for this.
Q4)Changing "DPI' is causing funny things WHY?
Ans) Just Stick with the stock "DPI" which comes as default because this problem lies on framework of lewa Op cannot solve it instantly.
Q5)I am getting "FREQUENT FC's WHY?
Ans)Just do a clean install wipe Cache/dalvik cache.
Q1)Is it always necessary to do "WIPE FACTORY DATA"?
Ans) It depends from which rom you are coming from,for example if you have ICS and want to install JB then this is necessary,But when you are just switching roms of same version "WIPE FACTORY DATA" is not compulsory it can be avoided if the user want most of the time it does not cause any FC's but if it is causing then you must do it.Another thing is that when you are coming from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 then data factory is necessary otherwise you will get lots of Fc's(force Closes).
Q2) I am switching Rom to XX4.1.2 to Lewa is "DATA FACTORY RESET IS NECESSARY"?
Ans) No i have done so many time switching roms from xx4.1.2 to lewa without "DATA FACTORY RESET" and i have got no FC's at all.
Q3) Which "GOVERNOR AND I/O SCHEDULER" is best for both BATTEY LIFE and for PERFORMANCE?
Ans)1)ONDEMAND WITH DEADLINE
2)HYBRID with CFQ.
THE END.
Nice idea...much needed
I have not seen ROM comparisons thread if you could do that it will be helpful. A matrix table will be best.
When you say 1ghz is good for multi tasking on what basis you say? 832mhz I can do dr driving 3d like gaming. Do multitask. Broadcom gpu. It should be fine.
My point is let it not be one more information dump like others. Point to source and reason your answers.
Stop calling it spam please. Mods dont allow spams to my knowledge.
Thanks for the efforts anyways its a good start.
Pressing THANKS easier than typing.

Buddy please search android general section I have posted rom comparison also.and I know moderators do not allow spam but posting the same question again n again is called spam,and there is a lot of difference in broadcom gpu and powersgx 530 just google it and all the above observations are based on my practical usage not from reading from any where except the GPU n RAM part.

Q4)Which "Rom" is best out there?
Ans)This depends upon "YOUR LIKING AND USAGE,Most Rom are just same some are themed and some are non-themed,Some have long term support like "LEWA" and "SUVI",and some are purely dead like "Jetmod and Jmp".

I would like to add extra emphasis to the above text in red. There will never be a "best ROM" for everyone, because everyone is different in what they want/need. The only way to properly determine which one best suits your needs is to try them yourself. NO MOAR "BEST ROM" THREADS! :good:

Are you going to start from zero or are you going to use another rom as base? Because CM11.0 has almost everything to be perfect, dispites of bugs (call quality, mirror screen not working, fc in camera and quality...). But one thing that I miss is finger friendly like MIUI since our screen isn't small, but I don't know if it would match with CM design (at least volume menu, power options menu could be at low screen would be nice).
One of the biggest problem in android IMHO is the battery drain, and I know that most of it is caused by google framework and play services avoiding device to deep sleep, so would be nice a rom or a option with good battery and a good integration with a custom gapps (maybe with only Play Store and I'm not asking to be included in the ROM, I know that is not possible) that would focus on battery for those who doesn't use gmail, google calendar sync, contacts sync and everything else that drain a lot of battery. I'm fallowing this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2357417) where people reports to achieve 3 days with 2-3h screen on time or 5-9 with non stop use, would be nice to have some of it implemented in the rom that din't corrupt notifications. BTW, how is the progress, will you continue the project?

until now idont know how to begin. maybe ill take some of google edition and mix it with TW, and maybe ill start from zero
its depending on how the rom gone be
and i know that alot of users want a better battery life and some of them dont look for a rom features, they just want to fix the battery drain
im from the beginning focusing on the battery life & rom speed and responding
ill try to do an option for full Gapps and custom Gapps
the progress? still not going, coz im waiting for Android 4.4.3 to roll out :good:
and of course i will continue the project :fingers-crossed:
A TW based ROM thats as fast an AOSP ROM.
This would be my ideal ROM.
Becoz its TW based you will alleviate all the battery drain issues associated with CM based ROMs.
Currently AL_IRAQI's BareBones is as close as it gets.
after 4.4.3 rolls out ill post some screenshots and I will ask for testers

I tweak my status bar using xPosed installer so mine doesn't look stock other than the icons being white. Is there anything in particular about it?
if you want to change the shape or the color of the status bar I can help you with that
That status bar mod looks cool hey.
Currently I'm testing Ozcans ROM and I actually quite like the S5 features like the status bar and dialer etc that he has incorporated.
I like your idea of basing your ROM on TW. The AOSP on TW is a good idea.
Best of both worlds if you ask me.
I like to use the Domination theme to get the AOSP "feel"
I dont think you will have to wait too long for 4.4.3 as rumour is that Samsung is testing 4.4.3 for the S5 - so I pray its coming to the S4 soon after
ya I know that 4.4.3 will roll out soon bit I just cant wait xD
What ROM are you using now?
im using my Rom, mixed between 4.4.2 TW & CM
That awesome man. Can I test it out?
