[ROM] Indigo Bean; CyanogenMod 5.0.8

ali ba · Jun 29, 2010

Indigo Bean
Latest version: 1.0

Description:
This is a ROM using the famous CyanogenMod sources, version 5.0.8.
It has quite unique features compared to other ROMs:

Power Control Widget with automatic brightness mode (a Froyo feature)
setting to blink the (green) notification light
charging light (amber) if there are no notifications (also a setting)

Download:
I've written a small web-application that allows you to keep track of my releases. You can download ROMs and Add-ons there, as well as see some fancy statistics.
Check it out: http://derhofbauer.at/android/

Setup:
The recommended (easiest) method to download and install Indigo Bean is via ROM-Manager (which can be found in the Market). You can also use the QR-codes from my website.

Thanks go out to kyosa (touchscreen patches) and defer (for saying "ramdisk"). And of course Cyanogen, the whole CM team and Koush for their great work!

Excellent, I never thought I'd see CyanogenMod on the Legend

I'd love to try it if only the camera wasn't broken......

Great. Downloading.......

Bricolo_fr · Jun 29, 2010

is the volume key long-press working to change tracks in the audio player, as in the Cyanogen ROMs?

LecterMe · Jun 30, 2010

Looks fine so far. Thx for sharing.

One thing that does not work for me is Cardiotrainer from Market. When i try to start workout, it FC. Same problem with vanilla bean. The app works fine on all other roms and also on my magic with Cyangenmod 5.0.7DS.

nofear2k · Jun 30, 2010

For those that want camera i can recommend Vignette, it works perfectly.

It costs some money but its totally worth it since you can add effects and lots of other stuff.

danishnicooo · Jun 30, 2010

can you take pictures ?

c1nu5 · Jun 30, 2010

this are very great news! Thank you ali ba for your awesome work!

LecterMe · Jun 30, 2010

Looks like I have the same sync problems as in vanilla bean. I get no mails pushed. Have have to make a manual refresh .

LuckyPhil88 · Jun 30, 2010

is it possible just to have the lockscreen as an app?

kyle25 · Jun 30, 2010

Sorry, I won't download every app and test if it works with my ROMs. Please provide a log-file (logcat).

Stock camera app does work with this release. Issues are 5MP and zoom. Besides that you can take pictures and videos. And playback videos, which is an issue with Vanilla Bean.

Sorry to hear that. I can sync right out of the box after providing my Google credentials. I changed some contact info in Google contacts and saw the changes nearly immediately on my phone.
Again: If you provide a proper log, I might be able to help you.

No. The Lockscreen is part of the framework. Replace the responsible class and the HTC apps will be broken. There were efforts to provide a vanilla-like lockscreen for HTC, don't know whether they succeeded. This is the wrong thread nevertheless for such a request.

You don't have write access to /system, so you'll always have to get into recovery mode.

frullewulle · Jun 30, 2010

Thanks for this image!

Has soneone found a way to install it with rom manager. flash clockworkmod recovery fails on my legend. Or is there another way to backup my original rooted rom before flashing this one?

schpinn · Jun 30, 2010

Just an idea, have you tried contacting the CyanogenMod team and maybe submit some patches to make an official CyanogenMod version for the Legend? AFAIK the same has been done with the Desire recently, using contributor patches.

EDIT: I also presume they'd be able to help you with the camera problem.

Does vignette use the full 5mp of the Legend? The problem with camera app is the resolution.... it feels kind wasted having paid for a 5MP camera and not being able to fully utilise it.

HenrikTheJester · Jun 30, 2010

You just made me realize that I simply have to root. I've gotta have this!

Yepp, it uses 5MP, you can actually choose from a list what MP you want.

rom is working great. again good work!

you know if the htc keyboard should be included? for some reason i have the default android 2 times

ali ba · Jun 30, 2010

@schpinn:

I'm maybe going to do that.

The problem we face is that the hardware is fundamentally different to the Desire, whereas Desire and Nexus mostly share the same drivers.
