09/Feb 1.7 - MoDaCo Custom ROM - U8230 Vanilla Style (now with online kitchen)

[Guest giryan]

Is the latest version of google maps? think it is v4 now.... Thanks.

I don't think that version 4 is for Android 1.5

[Guest deadphill]

I reckon the bake icon should be replaced for a picture of Delia for a laugh! Or the android logo with a rolling pin in its hand!!

Nice work though Paul. Cant wait to get to the stage extra stuff can be included.

Cheers

Ok this kitchen just made me a member :)

Brilliant idea.

[Guest gamer9]

Google Maps can be downloaded here, which then needs to be transfered to your phone to be installed.

The Titanium Backup, as mentioned in the previous post, can be downloaded straight from the market

Thank you very much, just made my day! Just to be sure do I just copy this google maps apk file straight to the sd card or to a specific folder within the sd card?

I create new calendar event on my Pulse. If I sync with gmail account, this event not syncing to gmail calendar.

Why not?

If I try sync my contacts this process go to FORCE CLOSE.

MCR 1.7.

You can copy it to anywhere on the SD Card. Best place would be to put it in the root so you can find it easily and I think once it's installed you can remove that file from the phone.

Just go to Settings and update the December firmware

[Guest Blake Loring]

Is there any way to make sure the EXT partition unmounts properly before mounting for file transfers to your SD card? Its driving me crazy, every time I copy files over to my SD card I have to restart, repeat SD:EXT and restart again.

[Guest Daz555]

Just 'upgraded' my Pulse to the vanilla ROM and have to say a big well done to Paul. Great ROM and significantly faster than the stock experience.

Couple of small glitches to report - when using the dialler you get what I assume is the default Android dialler with circular buttons but when using the dial pad incall you get the previous square-buttoned one which came with stock T-Mobile. Also "Data Counter Widget" does not collect Wifi data with this ROM but I can live without that.

Please collect the firmware with the Russian language. )) :)

[Guest niko1986]

A number of people are using Launcher 17 or something from XDA, wonder if the original developer and if you could paul allow the default launcher to be replaced as an option. Generally you have to replace the launcher file yourself in adb ... just an idea :)

[Guest xangma]

Considering signing up for this. Is there an option to have an uncustomised kernel version like, the bare minimum it would run on with it all still functioning? It would be useful for developers instead of me having to download the whole source and compile from scratch.

[Guest demusss]

Is anyone else experiencing random reboots with the 1.7 rom?

Was running co pilot the ther other day and the phone just rebooted itself.

Today I exited out of the browser and it rebooted.

I've had other reboots aswell whilst exiting out of other programs.

I've did a wipe and format before installing 1.7 so there's nothing there from a previous rom.

[Guest twe]

I have had only one random reboot. I wasn't even doing anything, the phone was locked and I saw the screen change from the screen unlock to the t-mobile loading animation one.

Same problem here... Please give some advice, how to get around this!

Thanks!

Use bluetooth to transfer files

[Guest klutsh]

I have to give a vote for Launcher17 too. Its not just a HTC style, it has folders, easy uninstall, etc.

I would also like to request that the HTC IME keyboard be added if at all possible, the best keyboard out for those of us with bigger fingers.

Another vote for "HTC IME TouchInput" please, and the "Clicker" app that accompanies it for calibration.

I also use:

- chompSMS

- Advanced Task Killer

- Weather Widgets

- WiFi OnOff

I would like this tooooooo pls ... :)

Could you make it a tick box or something :)

[Guest Daz555]

I have also had one random reboot using 1.7. I was just checking SMS when the phone rebooted. I then had to reboot the phone again to fix the SD partitions.
