ReplyDeleteYes, try it. You can also view the screenshots now, I have added the links.
ReplyDeleteso, how was it compared to CM7 RC5.3???
ReplyDeletehow to change lockscreen?
ReplyDeletego to CyanogenMod settings in the settings menu then lockscreen. Then go to style options.
ReplyDeletedo we need to flash gapps here?.. im gonna try this cos market is greyed out on cm7 rc 5.3.
ReplyDeleteNo need to flash gapps. As you can read in Changelog above latest Google apps are included in the rom.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your effort to participate in the discussion. It is highly encouraged (to all) to do the same. However, do read the problem carefully before replying. In this case -- He is asking for Chocobread rom and not for Cyanogen Mod
ReplyDeleteGo to Settings>Display and Unlock Screens.
ReplyDeleteis this better than emanom v4 and cm9 sir yagya?
ReplyDeleteI can guarantee that however this rom is quite good; but you can sure give it a try after a nandroid backup and then see for yourself. If you don't like it then just restore the backup in recovery.
ReplyDeletedoes it still have bugs? i tried 1.2 last time not good.. i try my best to make it work but always force closes..
ReplyDeletehey i have tried many times to flash it in cwm but everytime it says installation aborted bad file ,but i downloaded it full 105.85mb!! plz help.. i think this rom is corrupt
ReplyDeleteNo, it doesn't have bugs. Also, the Force Close is not due to the rom's fault. It's because you didn't wipe data and cahce after flashing the rom. Follow the instructions above carefully and you will not have any problem.
ReplyDeletehey yagya good day I just want to share that this ROM is so awesome so ar on my two days of using it, no bugs!!.. :) everything is so stable plus the fact that you can overclock it right away up to 864mhz and with the no frills included. plus a2sdgui is also included. Thanks for this wonderful ROM! And by the way this ROM is like a CUSTOM and STOCK ROM combined! thanks again yagya.. :)
ReplyDeleteGood day! Enjoy the rom and have fun.
ReplyDeleteplz tell me what i do to install this?? it shows installation aborted!!!
ReplyDeletecould this be done using odin?
ReplyDeletei also think so ,it is not installing in cwn always shows file aborted!
ReplyDeletehey this is awsome!hope other's try this rom!they wont be sorry!
ReplyDeleteNo, this is to be done in clock work mod recovery which you can flash using Odin. Also, you need to have gingerbread to install this. And, sorry for not reaching to you, I got much less time these days and I couldn't find you in my short time when I am free.
ReplyDeletei'm fetting some problem
ReplyDeleteafter flashing my phone is not starting.
plz help
Right nw i m using cm7 version which one is better say me? Choco bread or cm7. N which type of music player is update at chocobread
ReplyDeleteYour phone doesn't start at all or is it stuck at some point ; if it is stuckthen try flashing the ROM again after wiping data and cache in clockwork mod recovery. Otherwise try flashing gingerbread firmware using Odin by going to download mode.
ReplyDeleteHi yagya, what are the tweaks in this rom and how to use them?
ReplyDeleteHey yagya
DeleteHow to apply themes in chocobread v2 and where i can find these themes
Hi Yaga! after some issue I experience I flash my MINI to chocobread, looks nice and simple, anyway my have some questions to ask :
ReplyDelete- SD CARD is already partition, is dark's script automatically installed to SD-EXT?
- I find the music on CM 7.2 more louder and outcome, what apps did they use? can I install it on CHOCOBREAD?
- is FONTOMIZER SP apps compatible on CHOCOBREAD?
Thx in advance yagya! more power!
what abt comparision betwn chocobead & rc5.4. which rom has the best battery backup.... any other rom suggestions as the best....
ReplyDeleteNo, dark's a2sd script is not installed already. You will need to flash the script again in CWM recovery --follow my tutorial.
ReplyDeleteFor music app, it's quite nice. And, I think you don't need much loud sound but, if you do then I request you switch to CM7.2 where it was better for you. You can't simply install them in chocobread --but the developer might be able to put them there if he wishes.
I think yes, Fontomizer app is compatible. Try installing and run it.
I like CM7 because it has some features that I need and another might like Chocobread for it's simplicity (stock look) as well as some custom features. So, it's just a matter of taste; battery is pretty well in both the roms. So, flash the one you like --view screenshots, videos, etc. to decide more easily.
ReplyDeleteI am using Cyanogen Mod Music Edition ROM which has gingerbread 2.3.7. This one has gingerbread 2.3.6. Will it cause any problem if I try this ROM?
ReplyDeleteNo it won't cause any problem. Just skip step 1 and 2 and follow rest of the procedure to get this on your device.
ReplyDeleteSir yagya presently I am using cm7 can I flash chocobread on cm7. Or else go back to gingerbread and flash chocobread
ReplyDeleteThank you. I flashed the ROM and it is nice :)
ReplyDeleteattention guys !!!!!!
ReplyDeletealarm clock is missing .. small but necessary things ..... so after that you have to compromise,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
thank you sir, am enjoying the chocobread custom rom in my galaxy mini after few workouts:-), but its missing out with alarm clock and quick office, can it be fixed sir?
ReplyDeleteYes, you can probably copy those apps form your stock GB rom and then set appropriate permissions using root manager, Or it might even work if you install them from sdcard too.
ReplyDeletei m currently using CM7.2 rc5.1 can i install CHOCOBREAD v2.0 without updating to GB...
ReplyDeleteand plss tell that is it PREROOTED ROM????
ReplyDeleteYes, It is rooted already. In fact it is to be noted that all custom roms are pre-rooted roms.
ReplyDeletehow can i change toggle status bar in chocobread sir?
ReplyDeletei have a problem. The brown "Chocobread Android" screen wont disappear after reboot. Please help
ReplyDeleteWipe data and cache in clockwork mod recovery and reboot again. It will take some time for first boot so be patient.
ReplyDeletenothing is happening after the choco bread android screen kept for 2 hrs on galaxy mini
ReplyDeletereply fast
ReplyDeletewhat to do
ReplyDeleteSorry, for the late reply. To fix the problem, go Bach to recovery and wipe data and cache and dalvik cache (in advance menu) and then t reboot your device. If that doesn't help, flash the ROM again using previous version v4 of CWM recovery.
ReplyDeletei tried to overclock CPU in my galaxy mini chocobread but no other frequency is stable other than 600MHZ, if i set some higher frequency its just getting rebooted and no changes. any solution to overclock my device.
ReplyDeleteWhen Facebook Opening an account using the facebook application on my phone, it just makes the phone screen blink continuously.
ReplyDeleteAny workaround for this?
No, not at the moment. I think it's the problem with the app or the rom. Why don't you trying doing a factory reset (data wipe) or I suggest you switch to another rom. Do a backup before you do either of them.
ReplyDeleteMaybe your hardware doesn't support overclocking. Try a much lower frequency around 650 MHz too. Or, try upgrading to another custom rom.
ReplyDeletethanks it worked but how to move apps to sd . only 5-10 apps i have installed and memory full apps2sdgui how to operate it
ReplyDeleteok thnks i got frm a2sd
ReplyDeleteYou will need to flash a2sd script to use app2sdgui. But, I suggest you use s2e since it is much simpler. Find the article related to s2e or a2sd here and go through it for step by step instructions.
ReplyDeletei installed the missing apps using stock gb rom but the apps werent installing .
ReplyDeleteThe apps ought to work fine. But, hey why don't you try out Chocobread v2.2. I guess all those problems are solved in it.
ReplyDeleteam not getting signal after flashing custom rom
ReplyDeleteyagya how to install themes in chocobread 2.2 can you teach me please ....i want to change my stock themes
ReplyDeleteFlash any stock firmware using Odin...
