Today i had the first issue, even if it only showed once.
I was sent a text, but phone didn't tell me anything, not even with the sound (yes, it was on) and with little notification in the icon on first page, i only discovered about the text hours later when i checked them eventually.
I'll tell if this happens again
Btw, i confirm: awesome job.

Just waiting patiently for the next stable release. The last stable one is running very well with Jacob's kernel ( v 4.1) and 710 mhz on my wife's wildfire. No complains about anything strange or not working from her.
Thank you very much!

Hello to all...

Problem in installing this ROM...

To install this ROM, I just formatted my sd card and installed ROM manager and updated cwm to new version and then I downloaded the ROM to sd card root and restated mobile into recovery and tried to flash 2.5.x.x with update1 but the installation aborted all the time. I don't know what happened to it. Please help me to install this D K custom any ROM...
I am waiting for your detail reply...

FYI, I am s-off...

Thanks

Turn off signature check and try again. Do you get any error messages ?

seems that multipload is also down at the moment most downloads links are not working at the moment. i try to reupload them as soon as possible...

Excellent news!

I'm looking to come back to this ROM from CM7, can anyone gauge how stable the latest Test version is at all?

I am looking for a very stable platform to use and so far this appears to be it.

definately stable, i highly recommend it, i haven't tried the new Rempuzzle, but DK is a way faster than every other Sense ROM ever tried. I switched from CM7 to this 'cause i missed Sense but now i'll never come back again to CM.

Thanks! All installed and operational.

Running the latest test build with Custom O/C Kernel 4.1 and using EXT Partition 2

All seems to be operating well, miss the look of how some elements of HTC UI used to look but the changes are nice :)

Only thing not working is any form of USB connection. That was the case with CM7 too.

Tried a different PC etc but no joy.

Fantastic work Dark Night! Loving the rom! Looking forward to next release :D

Just to clarify, the above Kernel includes the Overclock to 600mhz and your various battery saving mods? :)

Edit - Answered question by downloading the file lol

Phone did come very unresponsive after running Torch for a time, locked up while walking home. Battery pull restored use but phone still quite slow, possibly due to my over/under clocking.

Will report back after Kernal change...

    Installation (FULL ROM)

    To install this ROM :

    * You need a rooted device with installed clockworkmod recovery (2.5.x.x) to install this Rom.
    If you have a newer cwm version installed (EDIFY), you can install my Rom with a temporary installation of CWM recovery 2.5.x.x.
    Download this Patch to get a temp. 2.5 Version , install via RecoveryMode or you can go to ROM Manager and "flash" CWM 2.5 (attached) and then Reboot into
    recovery.You'll get temporary CWM 2.5.x for installing my rom.
    * Download via Market & Install Titanium Backup (recommended, if you wipe your device later) . You can also use the included App APPEXCTRACTOR.
    * Titanium Backup : Backup all Settings and APPS you would like to use again after flashing (recommended, if you wipe your device later)
    * Download the zip file from the links below and copy the zipped ROM File (DK_CUSTOM_ROM_Vx.ZIP) to your SD card.
    * Restart your device into recovery mode (clock-work-mod)
    * PERFORM A NANDROID BACKUP FROM THE MENU
    * Wipe Cache and DALVIK-Cache (Advanced -> Wipe Dalvik Cache) within Nadroid Backup
    * Wipe Data/Factory Reset within NADROID.(recommended, to have a clean installation, backup APPs and settings first (At least nadroid backup))
    * Wipe SD-EXT Partition within NADROID (Partitions Menu -> Format SD-EXT) .(recommended, to have a clean installation, backup APPs and settings first)
    * Select the option to apply an ZIP File (NADROID -> Choose ZIP File from SD-Card), and select the zip file you copied to your memory card (DK_CUSTOM_ROM_Vx.ZIP for example)

    * !!! The initial boot will take some minutes ( ~10-15 min), the phone will reboot up to 3 times ! Atfer Loading you should wait again some Minutes (~5min) to let the OS finish loading all files !!!

    * Restore APPS & Settings via Titanium Backup & or use the included App Appextractor to Restore APPS from your Clockworkmod Backup Image. After restore , you should reboot your device !


    Some other "important" nodes :

    * Edify Versions & Packs are here for all Clock-Work-Mod 3.x Users
    * Please do the initial GPS Fix outside of any building. This could also take some minutes for the first time !
    * App Icons could appear later after rebooting, only for apps which has been copied to SD-Card via APP2SD.
    * After every BOOT, the phone needs some minutes to load all informations from SD-Card, that includes ALL apps you moved there.
    Sometimes Icons will appear later. That’s one reason for that. Typically it’s a FROYO Problem. So, just wait a few minutes after Boot, before INSTALLING or USING any APP.
    * The RULE “wait and take some coffee” also applies, if you connect your sd-card via usb to you pc. After disconnect, you should also wait some Minutes until
    the OS has finished reading the Apps and settings from SD-Card again.

    Fix RANDOM reboots / freezes(All the Time the phone reboots when i try to Install an App or want to Restore via Titanium Backup.)

    * Boot into Clock-Work-mod Recovery
    * Mount USB-Storage (SD-Card) to your PC and run Windows CHKDSK on your SD-CARD to check file-system.
    * Clear Cache and Clear Dalvik Cache. Try boot. Could take some Minutes (~10-15min)
