hey idk if you remember me asking this, but when i asked about getting sense apps back in... would i be able to just use adb and push them all in?

With aroma installer if you pick custom installation you could put all of them back in, atleast that's how it was in the beta release :D

Some Htc apps are in the custom install but others such as Rosie Launcher and Htc Weather won't work even if you push them. I have stripped out so much of the resources that they use to run that you would only get Fc's. I may release a normal version that still has sense later. Right now I don't have time to put it together.

Ya, I realized that I screwed up images for the dropdown menus. Will be fixed in the next update.

My selection for home button won't stick, it always gives me the options for go launcher or go locker. Is this normal for the ROM?

Mine sticks, your checking the check box at the bottom of that pop up menu that says "use a default"?

My plan is to theme Sense 3.6 when we get a leaked Ruu but right now Xboarder is the only person who has one and he isn't going to let anyone, not even devs, use it. So idk, maybe it will just have to be a theme for whatever he puts out unless we get another leak that I can use.

Wow... Talk about spirit of Open Source... The only guy with the RUU is a guy who doesn't even have a working device?

Ya, I'm a little angry about it. But I get his side too. A lot of people here on Xda have been stealing his work/kernels and not giving him credit for it. I'd be rather angry too.

But keeping it for himself makes the meaning of Community Development kind if die. Its more like Xboarder Development. Hopefully another leak will find its way out.

    Fourth Bar is a highly themed and slimmed down Sense 3.0 Rom that is one of the few Roms to use the Aroma custom installer. This installer lets you decide what boot animation you would like, whether you want the led button lights on or off, and even which apps you would like installed. Now your phone modifications can be molded easily to your liking.

    Please read about the known issues before posting. During testing some issues came up that have not been fixed yet and I am currently incredibly busy with school and can't finish fixing the issues until summer break rolls around. I figured instead of making you all wait 3 more weeks you might want it now with a few issues that are all listed below. Also, the download is larger than the previous version because of all the customization options. The default install is still only about 190mb.

    Downloads

    • ICS Keyboard

    Installation:

    1. Always Backup First!
    2. Complete Wipe of System and Caches
    3. Flash in Recovery just like a normal Zip
    4. Then follow the instructions on screen to finish installation.
    5. If you aren't S-off or using Ext4 Smartflash, you need to download the Kernels Zip and flash the one you selected in the custom installer using Xboarders flashing utility. If you selected Default Installation or Minimal Installation then you will pick the Faux Kernel to flash.
    6. If using Ext4 SmartFlash do not use reboot option at the end or it won't flash the kernel
    7. Turn off facebook live feed sync or else nothing else will sync and it will waste your battery

    Known Issues in 3.0:
    • Wifi Calling doesn't work yet
    • Battery info is missing
    • Black text on Account Settings buttons
    • If using Ext4 SmartFlash do not use reboot option at the end or it won't flash the kernel
    • Go Locker (Ics themed lockscreen) causes slight multi-touch issues with graphically intensive games.

    An update on whats going on with Fourth Bar

    Its been a slow process of finding small little things and tweaking the code but its coming along. I would say that its about 70% finished and I'm hoping to get the rest done by next week. This will be the final major update (small bug fixes will still get addressed). Its looking amazing so far!

    O, and there's a bit of a surprise with the next update :)
    I have to say I'm pretty excited about it! Hopefully S-off gets released soon so I can use it to its full potential!

    Well now that there is an Ics Ruu... My better judgement is telling me to focus on my classes.

    I don't think I'm going to listen. Gonna work on getting fourth bar theming onto real Ics.
