[ROM][UPDATE: 04/05/2012][bROM v1.2]

Thanks to ziggy46 for the graphic here!!

bROM v1.2

bROM is a heavily themed ROM based of the stock 2.2.2 Motorola Triumph ROM. I have added many mods to it, sch as the reboot/recovery and power widgets mod thanks to mantera. It features a custom kernel capable of OC/UV, and has many tweaks I developed specifically for this device. I have removed alot of the bloat from previous versions, and this should be a very fast and stable ROM with very few bugs.

Post 2 contains the downloads.
Post 3 contains screenshots.
Post 4 contains the changelog and list of bugs and issues.

Please read through all of these post to obtain the best understanding of this ROM!!

Installation:
***IF YOU ARE COMING FROM A CM7/CM9/MIUI BASED ROM, FLASH THE STOCK OR STOCK DEODEXED ROM FROM THE DOWNLOADS PRIOR TO FLASHING MY ROM!!!***
**MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP PRIOR TO STARTING THE INSTALLATION PROCEDURE AS A FAILSAFE***

1. Download the bROM_Prep_ROM & the bROM_v1.1 zip from the Downloads page and place them on your SD card
2. Boot into Recovery Mode(Must have a CWM Recovery installed!)
**THE NEXT STEP WILL WIPE ALL USER DATA FROM PHONE**
3. Flash the bROM_Prep_ROM(This deodexes your system and wipes data to prepare for a clean ROM install, If you flashed the Stock Deodex ROM, you don't have to install the prep ROM and can move straight to the ROM install)
4. Boot the phone up and allow it to fully boot on the bROM_Prep_ROM
5. Reboot back into Recovery Mode
6. Flash the bROM_v1.2 zip, DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING, and reboot the phone to enjoy the epicness

**NOTES ABOUT bROM INSTALL** I do not recommend restoring the data from another ROM install(Even stock based ROMs) as this may cause FC's and undesirable performance. Restoring data from a CM or MIUI build will most undoubtedly mess things up. If you want to back up app data and restore it, use Titanium Backup or something similiar. AND ONCE MORE, NEVER WIPE DATA ON THIS ROM!!!
**IT IS BEST TO START OVER FROM A CLEAN SLATE ON THIS ROM FOR BEST PERFORMANCE**
**INDIVIDUAL APP DATA CAN BE BACKED UP WITH TITANIUM BACKUP IF NEEDED!!!**

**NOTE*** Wiping data will most undoubtedly cause a bootloop. It's best to make a nandroid backup right after flashing the ROM and allowing it to boot so that you can wipe data and then do an advanced restore and restore the data back before booting!! ONCE bROM FILES HAVE BEEN FLASHED TO PHONE, DO NOT WIPE DATA, TO FACTORY RESET, EITHER FLASH THE STOCK ROM OR FLASH THE bROM PREP ROM TO WIPE DATA!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE WILL USING MY ROM. ALSO DO NOT RUN AT HIGH FREQUENCIES(ESPECIALLY ABOVE 1500 MHz!) FOR PROLONGED PERIODS OF TIME, THIS CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE CPU!!

*Some things to remeber:
To use the lbstestmode app you must use LP or AnyCut to make a shortcut to the lbstestmode activity. From there you can set the default gps state to MS based. Some users have confirmed this to help with GPS woes.

To undervolt, use Incredicontrol, a free app on the market!

If you have a mass of alog and plog and other log files in /data(which shouldn't happen to bad on this ROM), open up a terminal emulator, and request root permissions( su ), then type rmlogs and hit enter. This will clear out the log files from /data!

This ROM should be compatiable with just about any MOD available out there for FroYo ROMs. If you have a specific MOD that don't work with my ROM, let me know and I will try to fx the issues!

If you are having FC's or lagging issues, first go back and say, "Did I follow all of b_randon14's directions verbatim when installing?" If you answered yes, then we have some real issues, If you answered no, then maybe you should follow my instructions better to produce the best outcome of this ROM, trust me I know what I'm doing !!

If you have any bug reports, please post them in this thread or pm them to me!!

V1.1.5 to v1.2 Update Zip

This is an update from v1.1.5 to v1.2 so only flash this if you are currently running v1.1.5!! To install, just boot into recovery, flash the zip and wipe just the dalvik-cache! It will still show as v1.1.5 because I inadvertently forgot to add the build_id file that the settings.apk reads the software version from. But I assure you it is updated to v1.2!!

*Hidden Partition Recovery Zip:
This is for restoring the /hidden partition on this phone back to stock. Some ROMs (mine included) change stuff in the /hidden partition and a Nandroid won't backup that up. My stock ROMs restore it, but this is for if you just need to get the /hidden partition back to stock.

Kernels:
The ROM comes with bKernel-0.24 which is a very good kernel, however mantera has recently made a fOCk Kernel for FroYo built off of his CM7 and MIUI OC kernels which are more updated and get more frequent updates. I will provide the links to both kernel forum posts and you can choose which one you want to run. I have updated my kernel to v2.0. It is a very fast kernel, and I have patched the Linux kernel source up to 2.6.32.59. I believe it is the smoothest running kernel I have built for this phone so far, or have ran on this phone period!

Changelog & Bugs

Changelog:

v1.2, Released on 04/05/2012 - I added some more build.prop tweaks. I changed the up_threshold to 75% in the tweak script for the ondemand governor. I updated the Google Play Music app to the latest one. I changed the bootanimation, shutdown animation and splash image so they don't have the version number anymore. I added a script that runs at boot to move the dalvik-cache to the /cache partition if it is not already there, and one to clear out the logs at boot.

v1.1.5, Released on 03/30/2012 - I fixed the app install issue, added Barnacle WiFi Tether and updated Google Maps. I also removed some unneeded lib files that were still in the ROM

v1.1, Released on 03/28/2012 - Complete overhaul of the ROM. Removed v1.0 because it was a complete garbage ROM!! If you have v1.0 still, DESTROY IT!! v1.1 is a much better and usable ROM

v1.0, Released on 10/29/2011 - Initial Release, complete garbage!

Bugs:

Major Bugs:

None on the current release as of right now (v1.2).

Minor Bugs:

WiFi- There is a minor issue with WiFi where sometimes after a network is learned and set to auto connect(remembered), WiFi will not automatically connect back to that network after being disconnected(such as when the phone enters sleep). A fix for this is to open up the network list under WiFi settings and it should connect back, or toggle WiFi off and on.

This is number one on my list of bugs to solve.

Reboot- There is a sporadic issue where sometimes whenever you try to reboot into recovery, it just reboots the phone normally. This doesn't happen often(at least it doesn't for me) and I have noticed it seems to happen more likely if the phone is under a heavy resource load. Try to let the CPU usage fall back down before attempting to reboot into recovery(for example wait a minute after exiting a application that uses a lot of resources before trying to reboot into recovery).

I will also be looking into this infrequent issue.

Looks great! I haven't themed yet so I'm looking forward to this.

I am okay with this Don't go too heavy on the gradients, otherwise it'll look a little goofy...then again this is one of the most themed phones I've ever used, so don't take my word for it.

Also expecting that weird black box in a couple of the pictures will be gone by the alpha releases...

Yeah its a picture widget of me and my wife so I blacked it out after the screenshots lol!

Sent from my OC'ed Triumph!

Is it Gingerbread and what kernel would it be built upon?

Its not gingerbread. The cm7 builds still have some issues and plus I don't build from aosp . I only build off stock ROMs. I feel you compromise some functionality when going the aosp route. If moto/cm releases an official gb update then I will build off that. For now it has umph kernel but eventually it will have it's own!

Looks good...
