DOWNLOADING IT NOW......WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[Guest sinkingfish]

Hi Paul,

The en-ie local is still missing and the graphical bug in the vanilla unlock is still present too :'(

Other than that I'm sure it's perfect.

[Guest nintylinky]

Any chance for a r8 ROM without default MoDaCo additions and A2SD+ or an easy way to remove wavesecure, cant stand that program

adb shell rm /system/app/com.wsandroid.apk[/code]

Great work Paul - many thanks ! :huh:

[Guest el_boufono]

Hi! I'm new here! I have a few questions about this ROM and the kitchen thing.

If i do the kitchen thing (yes i'm willing to pay the 9,99£) and i remove Rosie/sense thing, will i still have the htc dialer and htc contact and all the htc menu (i mean like "parametres" menu and stuff) ??

I usually use Launcher Pro so i don't need the sense launcher or even the vanilla one. I like the htc lock screen, and all the htc's stuff like dialer, contacts, Facebook for HTC sense and so on. I just don't need the launcher and all the widgets. Is it possible to do with your kitchen?

Amicalement, Guillaume.

[Guest Paul]

That's exactly what removing Rosie does. You need a Launcher installed tho in order to launch Market and install LauncherPro. :huh:

[Guest el_boufono]

Ok, i'll give it a try! You just gained 9,99£ XD

@fudgeboy

why not bash as default shell? you asked

afaik - what i've read - a lot of scripts had to be rewritten for bash instead of ash/sh

otherswise a symlink in system/busybox sh to bash would do it

cheers

and paul please could you look into the arrow keys in r9 terminals

[Guest dezmo]

Thanks a lot Paul!

Perfect!

Only 2 things missing for me:

- Bluetooth SPP

- End call by power button

- Working Android contacts app.

:huh:

[Guest Paul]

Ultra Keyboard gives you arrow keys? :huh:

P

[Guest Paul]

Or do you mean when ADB'd in?

Am baking as I type :-) Thanks again Paul, great work indeed!

[Guest spammyspam]

Regarding the kitchen, is there any way of being able to view it as a non-subscriber? Perhaps by disabling the actual cooking ability. Would be great to assess what the options are.

[Guest BlackWhite]

Great :huh:

[Guest tommo123]

besides the requests in the other forum, any chance of adding an option to add the espresso mod? i personally prefer the flat bar look to the curved sense one

Just . Become . A . Member

The kitchen has LOTS of options, and besides Paul needs to eat (and buy lots of gadgets), so please, become a member and enjoy the kitchen, or just download a prebaked rom.

[Guest David_P]

@Paul,

Just an FYI for when you consider bake options for r9 WIP, I tried to add my framework for circle battery mod in the kitchen itself as a user added extra but it was ignored so I had to apply that zip via recovery after the rom was on.
