[ROM][AOSP][2.3.7] OxygeN1mod FINALE! [2011.12.10]

[ch33kybutt]

"A minimalist, lightweight and super-stable AOSP ROM"

Oxygen is now fully supported for Nexus One. Download official ROM from http://download.oxygen.im/roms/

Due to family and work commitments, updates to my modded version will be few and far between, if any. Hope you enjoyed the ride as much as I did. And thanks for the thanks!

Hi all,

I wanted to try a super-stable and bloat-free ROM for my N1, but couldn't find any in this forum that suited all my requirements. I finally found one on the Desire forum, called Oxygen. But it didn't have any version for Nexus One.

So after some (initially futile) efforts on github, this is my personal port of Oxygen for Desire, a minimalist, lightweight and super-stable AOSP ROM by AdamG


Screenshots

About

Oxygen is an AOSP source built ROM (ie. not a mod of any sense based ROM), it's minimal, it's superfast and mostly bugfree.

The original Oxygen is not a mod/port of any other HTC/CyanogenMod or any other ROM and may not be to everyones liking, since it's minimalistic and basic. I'll only be porting changes made to the original Oxygen source code, but I'm open to ideas and suggestions for functional improvements to the N1 version.
(Requests for bloatware like custom lockscreens, live wallpaper, etc. will not be entertained)

FAQs, Issues & How To Report Problems

FAQs

• Q: Is there Arabic support?
• A: Follow instructions from http://blog.devasque.com/?page_id=11 (thanks to ultra99)
  
  
• Q: I'm having issues with the Market place force closing. Is anyone else experiencing this?
• A: Try changing language/locale to something else and then back to your own. Then try to open Market again.
  
  
• Q: Does this ROM come with built-in Apps-to-SD-EXT?
• A: No, you must use a 3rd party solution (search for Dark Tremor, D2Whatever, S2E, etc). Reflash it everytime you flash a new ROM update. If you wish to use dark tremor apps2sd, you can try my customized (ext4-only) version HERE
  
  
• Q: The lag is really bad on this rom when I flash data2sd
  
• A: Flash libsqlite.so tweak by iinga and convert sd-ext partition from EXT3 to EXT4. (thanks to Treatcon)
  
  
• Q: My bootloader and radio versions are different. Could this be the cause of my flashing problems?
  
• A: No. It's usually a simple issue of zip file corruption. Always compare checksums first when you face any flashing problems.
  
  
• Q: Can you add XXXXXX feature?
  
• A: Maybe, but not if I consider it bloatware, and only if it does not compromise overall stability.
  
  
• Q: Can I use a custom kernel?
  
• A: No, since most custom kernels are made for/from CM-kernel, which is incompatible with this ROM. The built-in kernel is already fully optimized. But for those who wish to test dynamic undervolting, there's an AVS version to flash separately. (Warning: will NOT be as stable as the built-in kernel)
  

Issues

• Some users have experienced phone freezes when using Tasker. Details HERE (thanks to Royan)
  
  
• If you're phone freezes/reboots while using the AVS kernel, that means it can't handle dynamic undervolting and/or the constant voltage scaling. Stick to the built-in non-AVS kernel.
  
  
• One incident of user having problems with bluetooth, details here. I don't use bluetooth handsfree devices so have not been able to experience (nor fix) the problem, if any.
  

How To Report Problems

For those having problems with market, video, 3G, wifi, reboots, freezes, etc ... please do a full wipe (use my format zip HERE) and then reinstall WITHOUT any extra scripts/optimizations.

If problem still occurs after a full wipe and reinstallation, then please capture BOTH logcat and dmesg/last_kmsg AFTER the problem occurs, using the following method ...

1. Start terminal emulator session
2. > su
3. # dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt
For reboot/freeze problem, replace Step 3 above with
3. # cat /proc/last_kmsg > /sdcard/last_kmsg.txt
4. # logcat > /sdcard/logcat.txt
5. Wait ~1 minute then exit terminal emulator
6. Paste contents of resultant txt files to pastebin.com
7. Post pastebin URLs here in this thread for diagnosis

In other words, help me to help you. Clairvoyancy and telepathy are a couple of skills that I don't possess ... yet ;P

This seems interesting. A couple AOSP roms nowadays. Won't be long when start asking for further modifications, additional features, etc.

I believe Sibere's Data2ext script will work?

Thanks for the efforts...always saw Oxygen to be so popular back in the desire forums.

 

[ch33kybutt]

I'm using Dark Tremor beta without problems so far, so Sibere's Data2EXT should be good to go.

 

[bunnahabhain]

Does Trackball-Alert work with a built-in option are do we have to install a 3re-parta app?

 

[ultra99]

Is there Arabic support?

 

[clustered]

coool, great work.. keep it up!

 

[Lultima]

Cm7theme.apk it's inside or work ?

LED notifications not built-in, yet. I'm looking at how to work it in without too much bloat. I haven't tried it, but hear that Trackball Alert is a possible option for now. Let us know how it turns out for you.

Is there Arabic support?

coool, great work.. keep it up!

Thanks!

Cm7theme.apk it's inside or work ?

Theme Manager is included and built using Tmobile's source.

 

[ferfecir]

Looks super.

Is there support for multiple languages​​? ( turkish )

 

[ultra99]

Thanks cheeky. But I meant are the letters disconnected when typing/reading Arabic words?

Yes

Thanks cheeky. But I meant are the letters disconnected when typing/reading Arabic words?

AFAIK, there's no fix for that yet from Google. Sample below ...

 

[ultra99]

I was able get Arabic working on this rom.
I followed this site: http://blog.devasque.com/?page_id=11

All credits to madmack!

Good for you! But this patch actually replaces the existing framework, and will probably break other built-in framework features (such as DSP libs, notification power widgets, battery percentage, trackball wake, volume button music control, etc). Please try out the various features available in settings and let me know which are broken.

love it . thanks for porting it to N1 !!

All of these features you mentioned work no problem. However, Arabic letters are still disconnected in gmail and browser.
Might have to look further into this. Can't you take anything related to Arabic from CM7 as it has it correctly?

[wbedard]

Comparing the features list of Oxygen for the Desire and your OxygeN1mod, could you please clarify if Apps2SD comes pre-installed on OxygeN1mod or does it need to be installed separately. If it is a separate install, would you entertain the idea of creating separate builds with and without Apps2SD for those who would like it to work "out of the box." Thanks in advance!

market crashes

change the language to anything other than english, open market, let it load for a couple of minutes, then exist, change language back to english, open market again.
