Root [ROM][4.0.4][BETA] CM9 for Virgin Mobile and Sprint 10/3/2013

Speaking of RAM will any of the OE roms or kernals work with Swapper or Swapper 2 apps. I was reading somewhere that they can increase your RAM if your devices kernal is supported. I also read that you can brick your phone if you try it and it is not supported, so I did not want to mess with it. With the ICS Roms and overclocking some extra RAM would make this phone even better.
 
question? can you tell me what a few of the governors do ive always seen them in cpu controlling applications and have only used smartassV2 because its been recomended as very useful. just a little curious
 
Every time I try to flash the sprint cm9 it always comes out with installation aborted! && The Md5 sum matches.Please Help I Wanna Flash This Rom!

Can't wait to download this latest version (I'm in bad 3g signal at the moment). I've always wanted to try a linaro optimized ROM! Thank you so much for all your hard work phenom!
 
Just out of curiosity. Is there anyway to dual boot? I would love to be able to go between 2 different roms without having to reflash everytime. I thinking no but I just thought I'd ask anyway.
 
Just a quick thought and not to question anyone's intelligence or insult anyone...but when flashing a new ROM do it the SAME way every time.
A. Verify your download and md5 checksum.
B. MAKE A BACKUP!!!
C. Wipe EVERYTHING!(format/wipe system, data, cache, dalvik cache)Don't let being lazy cause you problems.
D. Its an extra step but it works for me and that's mount system and data partitions.
E. Flash your zip(s)
F. Reboot(If specified by the OP fix permissions.)

So in short this is my method I've been using since forever (G1 CM2) Lol. I've just never seen so many people having issues flashing ROMs so I thought I'd share this.
 
I keep waiting for that one day, that one special day, where the camera problem will finally be fixed, but that day has not came yet.

So, I wait.

I want the camera as well in due time it will come but ya got to download and try it.Great ROM and awesome work phenom.

I have been browsing the forums for quite awhile, but have not posted anything in a long time. I thought this day would never come... CM9 In beta stage! Thank you for everyone's hard work!
 
Init.d definitely works now, without the need of install-recovery.sh, i get the same benchmark results and fps using antutu. ROM seems slightly snappier though. Thanks phenom!
 
any idea why my email is not showing? It is coming through but I am not seeing all the bulk of the messages, just mainly who it is from and the subject title
 
Very nice and smooth.I didn't flash the update before mines been showing 3G ever since I flashed this one.Great job its a lot faster smooth :thumbup:

@phenom have you looked at the lg open source page of their site under mobile? There's several ICS upgraded devices one that jumps put at me is the Viper (CDMA and the same camera) I was thinking being able to look at that driver/hal/lib combo may give you some insight. Just something to chew on. :)
