Team DeFuse Presents
Vanilla FroYo FRF91 2.2.1​

Only use themes made for 2.2.1 if you want to keep lots of new features in Fission!!!​

Props & Thanks:
Thank you to all the awesome team members that are now with us. Thanks to our newest members kejar and braway. They have helped us bring Fission from a great ROM to an OUTSTANDING ROM with their work ethic and knowledge.

Thanks to everyone who has donated. You are helping us in obtaining new devices that will allow us to port Fission to the Pro and Global. Thank you so much and if you would like to help our cause you can find the donation info at the bottom of the post.

About Us & ROM:

The first generic Android platform for current and future Droid devices. We are a bunch of mad hackers, modders and developers that were not happy with the current model of Droids being "Blurred" so we began a mission to rid our devices from the blurriness of VZW Android systems. It started with a crazy idea of messing with the Droid2 SDK that has turned into a full fledge AOSP generic type of ROM. We have incorporated many features that were only seen in AOSP ROMs before this. Some of the features include Reboot in Power Menu, custom built Framework, vanilla Android GUI, totally blur free app folder and many more AOSP like features to come in the short term future.
​

Features:

True Vanilla ROM with generic Android feel, not themed to look line one. No blur apps...
Reboot in Power Menu.
Custom Framework - 10% battery increments with display percent number & without.
Overclock ready out of box.
Lots of free memory.
ROM has root and has been deodexed, and zip alligned.
Busybox installed and symlinks have been applied.
Clean base for you to customize how you like.
And many more...

This Method works for all supported devices.
It is suggested you follow all the steps even if you are coming from previous Fission ROM. If you do not want to wipe then please make sure you mount system & data.
​

Pre-Installation Tasks:

You must have root. You can download our 1 Click root HERE.
You must have Koush's Bootstrap program for your device. Download from Market or check HERE.

If you are coming from a different ROM, besides OEM ROM then I HIGHLY suggest you take the time out to SBF. If you have not SBFed in awhile then I would suggest doing so and ROM download links will be posted around the time you are done. You can find all the SBF files right here on this site.

I would also take the time to let Google backup your settings and apps since that seems to be the safest way to do it. Just making a suggestion...

FAQ:
Q. Can I install ROM without performing wipe cache/data?
A. You can but you may have bugs. If you do not follow install instructions then do not post a bug that you may have.

Q. Can I install any theme that is not made for Fission 2.1?
A. You can but you may have bugs. If you do not follow install instructions then do not post a bug that you may have.

Q. I am having reboots, why?
A. Make sure you have installed ROM by following every step of instructions. Back up memory card, format memory card and then copy over only your files back to memory card, do not copy over Android made folders/files. Do not overclock. Uninstall any overclock app you have installed.

Q. I want the battery percentage numbers to be displayed?
A. Reboot into recovery and apply the framework file in /sdcard/fission/add_on folder.

Q. I installed Gmail but it is not syncing?
A. Go to account settings and enable Gmail to sync.

Q. I installed ROM but it is showing VZW build info in About screen?
A. The build.prop, which contains that info has been left as default values. You can change what you want very easily by searching build.prop tweaks. Some things may break so be careful with what you are doing.

Fission ROM Manager is contributionware and it is explained on download page. There will be a free version with less functions some time over the weekend.

I Love 2.2.1 !! I've ran every version of Fission ever made. I've been running 2.2.1 for a couple days now. Its great. I loved all of the previous versions but this one is behaving perfectly. Its smooth and very fast. I also haven't had any issues whatsoever. So I just wanted to say I'm thankful for the roms Team Defuse builds. I like the Rom Manager too, I just downloaded 2.2.2 but 2.2.1 is running so good I don't want to let it go just yet.

Anyone having problems with sending MMS pictures, or MMS in general, and also, I'm still getting reboots on 2.2.2, is it confirmed fixed?

The changelog on the Team Defuse website for 2.2.2 says fixed reboot issue. I also have a question though. Is 2.2.2 just an add on for 2.2.1?
I just finished downloading it from the Fission Rom Manager and the filesize is 74,802 kb.....

I have had no reboots the past few days using the music fix. If you installed theme beisides the Black Bar theme 2.2.2 on Fission ROM manager then it most likely has the music package which we believe is causing the reboots.

2.2.2 is much smaller cause all the add ons are no longer part of the ROM packages since we can no download just the ones we need.

[abhoward9]

so i hope this isnt a stupid question. installed 2.2.1 and everything is awesome except i have no swype. I'm assuming that if i follow the directions under "Installing Updates and Add Ons:" and using the D2 keyboard update, i will get it back?

 

[crome1115]

yeah im having the same issue with swype.. have posted this up twice prior to this on a different thread but have not had an answer yet.. hope you fare better than i have with this question..loving the 2.2.2 btw team defuse.. but still no swype..

 

[Hideaki]

Install D2_Swype.zip from inside of /sdcard/Fission/Add_Ons/ using Clockwork Recovery, that will get you Swype.
