[DEV] Adding your ROM to ROM Manager

It's easy, it's free. And here's how you do it!
You will need to create two simple JavaScript files:
A file that describes your ROMs that you send to me.
A file that you host that lists your ROMs, so you can update your ROM Manager section.
First, your developer/ROM description file:
Code:
{
// This is what name you want your ROMs to show up under.
developer: "CyanogenMod",
// Your id. This should have no spaces or other funny characters.
// This would ideally be your Github id, so when you send me your manifest
// I can verify who you are. But it can be anything really.
id: "cyanogen",
// The display summary. Two lines max.
summary: "Mods and bacon for Dream, Sapphire, Droid, and Nexus One",
// The location of the developer's manifest.
manifest: "http://gh-pages.clockworkmod.com/ROMManagerManifest/cyanogenmod.js",
// The list of devices that this developer's ROMs support.
// If you don't support a device, just don't list it!
roms:
{
sholes: true,
passion: true
}
}
Send me that file! [email protected]
Link to developer sample: http://gh-pages.clockworkmod.com/ROMManagerManifest/samples/developer.js
And now, create your ROM list file:
Code:
{
// The version of the manifest, so ROM Manager knows how to load it
version: 1,
// The homepage for your ROM, if you have one.
homepage: "http://www.cyanogenmod.com/",
// The donate link for yuor ROM, if you have one.
donate: "https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=3283920",
// Your list of ROMs
roms:
[
{
// Display name of the rom
name: "CyanogenMod 5.0.5",
// Display summary of the rom
summary: "Stable",
// Device that this rom runs on
device: "sholes",
// This is the download URL of your ROM.
// These URLs should have unique filenames per version!
// Ie, don't use a zip with the same name
// as that of a previous version with a new version.
// Otherwise ROM Manager will continue using the
// old cached zip on the SD card.
// This must be a direct download,
// and not a Mediafire type link.
url: "http://www.droidaftermarket.com/koush/motorola/sholes/cyanogen_sholes-ota-eng.koush_5.0.5.zip"
},
// Antother, older ROM!
{
name: "CyanogenMod 5.0.4",
summary: "Stable",
device: "sholes",
url: "http://www.droidaftermarket.com/koush/motorola/sholes/cyanogen_sholes-ota-eng.koush_5.0.4.zip"
}
]
}
Link to manifest sample: http://gh-pages.clockworkmod.com/ROMManagerManifest/samples/simplemanifest.js
And you're done!
If you're a pro dev, you can even create a ROM customizer. But I won't get into that here

Bump. We need more ROMs added to this awesome mod!

I hope that Paul @ modaco decides to up his roms to rom manager.
Koush can you please answer me one question. Is it at all possible to add an extra button as confirm within recovery? My trackpad is totally broken. I have asked loads of times. I'm not demanding anything as such just want to know,
1. Is it possible to physically implement? Power button or menu to confirm?
2. If it is possible is there a chance you can add it to a future release.
I feel like a broken record going on about it but i'm really big on rom flashing but worried about flashing roms now incase i get stuck and need to use recovery!
Thanks.

clockworkmod is the best thing IMO for the htc desire, after root of course
honestly its just pleasing to know its there as a safeguard
thanks for all your work

Yeah, Koush! Honestly, I feel bad for Ephu. Unluckiest son of a ***** in these here parts.

Ha more like stupidity! Dropping my phone in a drink lol. Il buy a replacement trackpad as soon as it is possible. I think mine is 100% dead now. I just want an alternative button as I'm a Rom whore lol.

welcome here @ xda, wbaw!
keep up the good work!!!

Oh ! a modaco man on xda,welcome.
a new competitor for elitemovil

I don't really know why CM7 struggles with its own kernel. Wbaw said in some earlier posts on Modaco that this leaked kernel is way more buggy than the one used in CM7. I regularly switch to CM7 because of its features and to see the innovations in Android. But I always keep coming back to ROMs based on stock kernels because the CM7 kernel simply sucks. I use my Blade for more than half a year now and CM7 always disappoints me. These kernels are far better than the one CM7 is using, that's my own experience by using each ROM for a week or two. The best would be to mix all the good working stuff of the available ROMs into one.
Thanks to wbaw for joining xda. Great efforts!

guys, i used to own a blade, enjoy the best rom there is, and also give wbaw all the support he deserves, actually all devs deserve.

@wbaw
I found you ! .. keep up the great work man !
after my posting at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1163609&page=3
it may not surpise you that I may try the b19, and that I just used your 'donate' link.
cheers mate.
btw,
just noticed that b19 is an all-in-one ... will it go on ok considering I already have clockwork installed ?

The all in one 'TPT' version is only for users with 'Gen1' phones which were sold with Android 2.1 (Eclair) who haven't updated to 'Gen2' radio firmware yet. It updates the radio firmware, installs the rom & the latest clockworkmod all in one. Because it is flashing the low level radio firmware & loaders there is a very small risk involved ... but it's the safest & easiest way to get to Gen2, it'll work even on an unrooted Gen1 phone. If you use the TPT version then follow the instructions carefully & I'm not responsible if you break your phone.
The all in one TPT version wont work on phones that were sold with Android 2.2 (Froyo) or officially updated to Froyo. Those phones are already 'Gen2', so they don't need any radio firmware updates, so they should just use the standard clockworkmod .zip file to install the rom.
If you used a previous version, then you've already got the Gen2 radio firmware you need for the rom. So you should install the standard clockworkmod version which is linked at the top of the post. There is absolutely no risk of permanently damaging your phone with clockworkmod.

HI!
Is this good ROM?
Does all work fine?
Is the Battery life good?
Does all works?
I maybe tested this ROM once really fast but it was older version!

yes, yes, yes, yes easy

Hey wbaw !
I just flashed this ROM and it is good but how many % it is completed?
and can you fix Estonian language? it works but: [settings --> applications] not work :/ maybe it need other Estonian language files to framework-res.apk ..?

I can confirm that com.android.settins force closes every time when i select any item under Settins>Applications when language is set to Estonian.
When language is set to English everything works fine.
I wonder were Estonian translation comes from anyway, since its only half translated and as far as i know it is not in stock Android 2.3.4 nor in CM7.
BTW any changelog from b17 to b19?
Thanks for a very nice ROM!

Almost all ROMs which have Estonian language but it's not Estonian ROM them not work fine!
some apps not work and some settings an other not work!
If anyone can find any Estonian Gingerbread 2.3 ROM then the language can be added to framework-res.apk and then it needs to work!
Peaaegu kõik ROMid millel on Eesti keel aga pole Eesti ROM nendes ei tõõta kõik siis hästi!
mõned programit ei tõõta ja mõned seadused ei tõõta..
Kui keegi leiab Eesti GingerBread 2.3 ROMi siis selle keele saab lisada: framework-res.apk ja siis peaks tõõtama hästi!
Sorry for bad English and sorry if I wrote something wrong to Estonian..
I live in Finland so I don't remember really fine how to write in Estonian and my English is not really good yet!
EDIT: If anybody can tell me how I can edit/fix language then plz. tell me! and what name Estonian language using in framework-res.apk ?

The Estonion language files were taken from CM7, that has much more complete language support.

OK
but it needs little bit editing or then need adding from other ROM the Estonian language..
when I have free time for ZTE then I can try to search better Estonian language to GingerBread!

CM7 is Gingerbread & it does fully support Estonian as well as many other languages.

Is anybody having trouble updating the launcher pro home launcher..???

OK! I used CM7 and no Estonian language!
right now I use this ROM so I cant test newer CM 7 Nightly!
Does ZTE Blade CM 7 have Estonian language or other CM7?

thank you very much for making me leave from the battery eatter cyanogen

I noticed that the music player not work!
I tried to get it to work with other language: English
but still not work!
how it can fix?
Do I need again to find one good ROM which works and are 100% stable... ?
:/
I will try to search official normal cra# 2.2 ROM back!
I cant use ROM which not work fully!
I don't even have time for ZTE because I edit ROMs for JetDroid and here finland schools starts again soon (only 7 days I have free time..) and then I don't have time to search or edit ROMs...
EDIT: How I can extract and re-pack the boot.img?
I don't understand how, I don't understand that how and when I try then not work.. is there any extractor program for .img files?

A little doubt about this ROM, does it support RDS for FM radio?

[APP] Stock/System 2.3.5 Keyboard App That supports Greek/Eng Keyboard + Dictionary

Hello all,
I recently became a U8800 owner and I decided to flash it with the latest MIUI ROM, only to find out that their stock Android keyboard does not yet support text prediction in Greek or Greek keyboard at all. Since I didn't want to install a third-party Greek IME from the market, I decided to inject a Greek dictionary found in a previous CM Release plus a Greek keyboard supporting existing LatinIME.apk (from htc devs on a stock 2.3.5 keyboard apk).
It should work on all devices/ROMs, but you can try and share your results.
I also removed all other dictionaries exept english / greek to make it light.
How to install:
1. Navigate to /system/app using Root Explorer and copy/rename your existing LatinIME.apk to a backup folder in your SD card (just to be sure, should things go wrong).
2. Use Root Explorer to mount /system/app as R/W and then paste the new LatinIME.apk inside this folder. Change the file's permissions to rw-r--r-- after pasting.
3. Reboot your device and go to Settings > Language & Keyboard > Android Keyboard > Input Languages. Under Greek, it should now say "Dictionary available".

Nice to hear that it works ok.

Hi ! It's a good news, since I'm seeking how to do the same for the French language since a ROM i flashed my Wildfire S with doesn't support spell check or prediction for it.
Yet, I'm fairly new to the modding scene (my previous phone was a an LG oldie...) and don't know how all of this works, so could you please elaborate ?
Do you mean I should try and retrieve HTC_IME.apk (I'm guessing it's the equivalent of LATIN_IME.apk, but for HTC...) from the stock 2.3.5 ROM and replace the current crappy one with it ? Are the dictionaries contained in the apk ? If not, where will I find the French dictionary ?
Thanks for reading me, I hope you can help.
I would gladly click the "thank you" button for your OP, but I can't seem to see it...
So here goes the old-fashioned way : Thanks !

Now the sentences you all know. The use of all ROMS in the thread is on your own risk and none is 100% stable, but we are on the way.
So be careful and ask better twice for details. Please report issues to all ROM's in details, so that we could learn from your experiences.

If you like to release your best of roms in thread rom list, feel free to send me the links with some Details about it: like based on..., self new built up rom, what changed, improvements...
Important is to respect the sources. I try that too, but somestime it is not possible to know all the cooks and developers who are responsible for the improvements.Then take the last one you know.

Too late, just installed a new drive just for android and linux. Starting from beginning with original roms, rooting and modding now that I know more about android. But I will try to do one today or maybe tomorrow, just can't say. I look back and the roms I made were not so good.

Better already. Read your last post about no comments, 200+ downloads for me and barely a word. Maybe no one likes me. Just joking. Good job on the rooting with RKCooking, much better than using linux.

Some advantages...

We got couple advantages for using something like pastebin...
We get to know how many users are trying to get your file...
You can edit the links inside anytime you like...
So for example JD uses that link in the top post... and he leaves us all alone like Donald and mediafire goes down then i will still be able to change the links.
You can add more links(mirrors) inside whenever you like
You can delete the links really fast if you find that img could have bad affect somewhere... and fix the img and update the link
lol I feel like I'm stretching it to much
That's it for now

Right now it is diffecult to decide which way is the best to protect an upload, because filehoster seemed to be nervous. Pastbin could be a help, but not a solution. When a link dies, you have to upload it again.
Btw I have not the intention to run away, pal.
Maybe we find a stable file hoster or change sometimes the link.
One thing is for shure, these guys have a lot of fun right now.

[Lenovo A750] ROM Overview and Guides for Rooting/Flashing

I have about 15 ROMs here testing them and writing this overview but I cannot edit this post any more
Hi folks,
I like to do an overview of Lenovo A750 ROMs that are available on the web. Basically I am interested in Android 4 ROMs but we could list up 2.3 ROMs as well to have a complete list.
For that purpose I will update and extend this posting, that will be quite empty for the next hours. But I hope to get it filled this evening and with your help even more in the next couple of days.
I really hope that some people here speak Russian or Chinese and are able to post links found in foreign forums.
I found two topics in a Russian forum about A750 ROMs. One of them seems to be an overview:
http://www.forum.china-iphone.ru/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=20815&start=380
http://forum.china-iphone.ru/viewtopic.php?p=640831#p640831
I already tried some ROMs like Anton and apkhot but not sure if I found the most recent version. And I did not find them by Russian forums.
BTW setting language to English in build.prop before you flash is not a big thing.
So I'm going to collect everything I got now and it would be great if you could provide more links and maybe a translation of the Russian and Chinese ROM overviews.
Please let me know if you find any invalid links.

ROMs for Android 2.3 Gingerbread
Cybermaus S148 V1 (2012-04-28) Android 2.3.6
This ROM is not installed by loading a zip file from recovery. It will directly be flashed by USB cable. As the user data will not be overwritten, it had my German language selected. But the ROM only supports English and Chinese. Only some apps support German. So I had a mixture of English and German in my test. It has the GoLocker for Lenovo and the Idea Widget. That is how the launcher is called. So happy I found it.
It has some nice apps such as Car Mode or Lenovo Task Manager. Playstore is installed.
(Download a750_s148_120428_cybermaus_v1.rar from cybermaus' 4shared repository.)
BaderMQ S148 Multilang+Arabic Fix (2012-05-15) Android 2.3.6
This ROM is very nice. Its located to en/UK by default. Supports Multilanguage - at least German is supported quite good. Keyboard is only in QWERTY. It has two launchers installed and the nice lenovo lock screen. It has GoLauncher Ex but seems not to have a Widget. Lenovo Task Manager is a nice tool on that ROM. Playstore is installed but no File Explorer. I guess it's not rooted. Better link to discussion site appreciated if anyone knows.
Download Lenovo_A750_v1_BaderMQ.zip on 4shared.
ROMs for Android 4 ICS
Cybermaus S306 V1.3 (2012-06-18) Android 4.0.3
This ROM is mainly English and Chinese but has also some poor support of other languages (many items are still in English).
It has a Lenovo Magic Launcher with a buggy background, that may be fixed after changing the wallpaper a couple of times and rebooting.
Keyboard did not work until I installed the stock application ICS-keyboard.apk from here (German).
For installation first apply v1 and then update v1.3. Versions between can be skipped.
Download a750_s306_120530_cybermaus_ics_v1.zip and a750_s306_120530_cybermaus_ics_v1.3.zip from cybermaus' 4 shared repository.
ROMs that did not work for me
bgcngm S143 Hebrew fixed by BN (2012-03-29)
build.prop says it would be a S306 from 2012-05-30 and Android 4.03. Boot language is set to zh (Zhongwen - simplified Chinese). It also has a lot of Chinese apps in its system/app folder. To install I removed the assert from updater-script but then just got "installation aborted". Better link to discussion site appreciated if anyone knows.
