Ok here's my little FroyobyLaszlo mod. YES ITS A TERRIBLE EVIL WINZIP

Pretty much all the credit should go to him (Laszlo) for this ROM!
Once I start doing some more advanced tweaking then I'll be able to give myself some credit without feeling guilty:D

Pretty much the main new feature is that you can customize what system apps to flash.

Changes:
-complete
~in progress
Code:
~1.2
~system mount as rw on boot will become an option

-1.1
-system mounted as rw on boot
-customization(install.txt)
  *So all those apps I removed can now be customized if they install or not
-updated LauncherPro to latest version 0.8.6 as of 1/9/2012

1.0 (from froyobylaszlo)
-edited update script, made the installation a bit more detailed and informative
-removed calendar
-removed onscreenkeyboard (faster! use your slide out keyboard!)
-removed livewallpapers picker
-removed text to speech
-removed protips widget
-removed voice dialer
-added stock sounds and fonts
-added gmail
-added youtube
-changed bootscreen

Download:
1.1 - ROM: http://www.mediafire.com/?unp8qba8pp7rqas
Install Config: http://hostfile.org/install.txt (rightclick>save as...)
1.0 - ROM: http://www.sendspace.com/file/o2auyh

Install Instructions:
First of all you need to have radio 2.22.27.08/2.22.28.25 & hboot 1.33.0013d. Instructions on install are here.

Then you should partition your sd like so:
swap (i really recommend it) somewhere around 120 plus/minus 50mb...im being very approximate here...it depends on how much space you're willing to give up
ext4 (recommend it too) depends on how many apps you want...512mb will probably be enough for most

Wipe your phone with a superwipe. Then do all the wipe options in recovery and do "repair ext"

Download the needed files.

Open up install.txt with your favorite text editor and edit it to what you want to install. Default is everything install. Don't add any extra spaces or anything to the file. Only change "yes" to "no" and "no" to "yes".

Copy frayo-signed.zip and install.txt to the root of your SD card.

Flash it in recovery.

Once its done reboot and follow onscreen instructions to sign in and stuff (or you can skip).

Now here are some settings you need to set:

If you have sd-ext partition:
Settings>Extras>Application>Allow moving
Settings>Extras>Application>Install Location>Sd-ext

If you have swap:
Settings>Extras>Performance>Swap

Recommended:
Settings>Extras>Performance>Lock Home in Memory
I don't recommend changing CPU settings

To fix black clock in notification bar:
Settings>Extras>User Interface>Reset UI Tweaks

I really recommend you turn off market updates, the new market is too slow:
Open terminal emulator.
Type
Code:
su
pm disable com.android.vending.updater
If the market manages to sneak in an update before you do this go to Settings>Applications>Manage>Market>Uninstall updates

Reboot and Enjoy!

Hmmm...won't hurt to try
How it works is it copies everything at first...then it scans the install.txt and for every "no" it deletes the app
Not sure if recovery will give errors for the file not being there...
Won't hurt to try

I only made the changes mentioned in the "changes" :p
Everything else is exactly like froyobylaszlo...
So I assume if cmtd didn't work with froyobylaszlo it won't work with this...same with papago
I cannot do any deep development because my linux installation is being odd right now...




I STRONGLY recommend not mounting /system as rw unless there is something vital that needs to be written, then remount it to ro.

*sigh*
Alright...next version will have it as an option...set as no by default


Also I may make a separate update.zip for customization that will allow you to edit the install.txt without a pc...hmmm....

Alright well that's recovery's fault
I can't control that:p
I mean...why doesn't it barge on through the errors? :roll:

Ehh...looks like this is only possible if I code a program to do it...Because edify updater scripting doesn't have a "setprop" or similar
And as I've mentioned earlier, my linux is being wierd, and windows...well...not gonna even try...:p

Huh actually I wonder why?
All I really added was the customization and...oh it might be the launcherpro update...
Hmm...anyways:D
I got linux set up and might start modding a bit deeper
I wanted to make my own ROM from source...but cm6 source is broken apparantly
Maybe ill start from bare froyo android source
Now I kinda regret giving this the name frayo...I shoulda used it for my full rom that I might make later

Oh well anyways...give me things I should add...I'm running out of ideas

if your going to make an aosp rom do a gingerbread, froyo never has been too perfect for the g1. granted there are a a few out there that run pretty well (laszlos and im sure yours) but the devs seem to get 2.3 working a hell of a lot better then 2.2 on the g1s
frankenbread?

Ill see...
I just think gingerbread will be too slow

I'm actually compiling aosp froyo for the g1 right this second
Just to try it out

And I think my computer might not be powerful enough to compile gingerbread...well I don't think so but that's what the android source site says
According to the android source site id need a lot more RAM...
We'll see, because I also don't have enough space for the gingerbread source, and I don't want to repartition my drive right now because activating windows was a pain already last time

    Alright then I guess this is done unless someone gives some good suggestions on what to add
    1
    Probably they have AutoCMTD included within the ROM, in that case you don't need to flash the FR-boot-xxx.zip on top of it. Nevertheless, if you use cMTD correctly, it's independent from the ROM you are using. The only problem might be, that you have to bind mount your download cache manually in case you reduced the size of the cache partition and you cannot download any apps from the market.
    1
    Any of them will work just fine
    If some apps don't download from market either increase the size of cache or there is a work around but I forget the steps at the moment. But for now try 72 for system and 2 for cache

    1.5.8 should be best
    folder here: http://www.mediafire.com/?lifib6a9ptj5j#1pcwmbdd9kqpc
    You'll need the first two files
    Make a file called mtdpartmap.txt and also put it on your sd card
    In that file type
    Code:
    mtd 72 2

    And the later versions of cmtd (1.5.6 and higher i think? idk but 1.5.8 is fine), they automatically do the cache binding
