*NO LONGER BEING UPDATED!!!!*

I will begin working on a ROM for the T-mobile Galaxy Note II if any of you want to follow me.

This is our first ROM!

CypherROM has been optimized and themed to give you an experience on your view that you've never had before ;)

If you like my work, please hit the "Donate to me" Button above my avatar!

Huge thanks to jay4255 for teaching me how to use the kitchen and customize, to Dsixda for his awesome ROM kitchen, to Globatron for S-off, to Unixdood for help with testing building our kernel and teaming up with me on this project, scabes24 and Joshua for graphics and theme support, to Contradude and ACS for the amazing ROMs they've had for the view that inspired me to build CypherROM, to Kevinrocksman for bootanimations, the multitool, hosting my files, and a million other things, to E.T. Heil who hosts the IRC channel for us and built the Bootanimation, to HTCFlyerX for helping me learn more about xml, the Sony Bravia Engine, and to everyone here on XDA that has helped me learn all that I have on multiple devices over the last 2 years.

DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible if you brick your device.

Features:
-Based off of OTA_Express_HC_S_Sprint_WWE_2.23.651.1-1.22.651.2_release_2310617n25jzbh791c6frl.zip
-Rooted
-Busybox
-Deodexed
-Zipaligned on boot
-Bash shell & nano installed
-Sysro/sysrw scripts
-init.d support
-Custom Bootanimation
-HTC black Downanimation
-Both 3G/4G and WiFi Only Versions
-Custom Wallpaper on boot
-Fully functioning HW Keys

Changelog in post #2.

Known Issues:
-You MUST flash CypherROM 1.0 before flashing 1.1 or you will bootloop. There is a known issue with a couple files causing bootloops (I'm pretty sure it's the kernel because when I tested 1.1 without jmztaylor's kernel I had ZERO issues.)
-If you are going to flash the theme on the WiFi only version, you must first flash the ROM, then reboot into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache then flash the theme or you will bootloop.

Problems?

OR click HERE for help
Whoever flashes this, please hit the thanks and/or donate buttons, and please post your results in the thread so as to allow us to all benefit from the info. Thanks!

MODS:
see THIS for Advanced Power Menu and Extended Quick Settings MODs confirmed working on CypherROM!
Once you DL the file, simply place it on the root of your SD card and flash it from recovery, and enjoy. Be sure to thank J4n87 for his hard work on this!
WARNING :eek: : If you live in a WiMAX area and use 4G this mod will cause some issues i.e. 4G remains toggled after you enable it and can't be disabled (I had this issue, doesn't mean everyone will.) YOU'VE BEEN WARNED.


Installation instructions:
1. Go to recovery (After running kevin's tool or copy it manually to the sdcard)
2. do a data/factory reset
3. Go to mounts and storage and format /system
4. Go to advanced and wipe dalvik-cache
5. Wipe cache partition
6. flash the rom
7. flash the theme

rom flashed OK but wireless did not work for me either.

Keep up the good work

Yeah i'm overhauling this right now. I'm going to take down the DL for a bit til I figure something out. I did test BT with my stereo bt headset and it worked perfectly, as well as pretty much everything else, so I don't know what went wrong that borked WiFi and WiMax. I'll keep poking now that I'm off work.

EDIT: Overhaul complete. Link is back up!

Ok I discovered what I did wrong, went back to the stock base and rebuilt it. Alpha 2 has had no issues thus far for me. Still need some people to test more for me.

I like that you are continuing development and I look forward to your beta and finished products. Something new is always better than something old :)

    I think this is the best ROM for the View currently. The only "good" JB ROM is YNC's, but that's lacking front camera, and horizontal pen. Since it's based off of Stock HC, full bluetooth support, working cameras and pen. It's really fast, and battery is pretty good. The only thing I have a problem with this ROM is that there is no bluetooth controllers working. :p

    Thank you for this ROM. (Do you think continuing another ROM for the View, such as JB?)


    Yeah HTC uses a proprietary BT stack which doesn't support BT controllers unfortunately. No, I don't plan on doing any updates on the View as it is now 2+ years old and I have moved on to the GN2 and Nexus 7. I'm glad that this still works as a DD for those of you still using it. Makes me happy :)
