going to release a update hopefully later today. Added ext 4 support kanged in a few cm things. Removed shutdown and start up sounds sorry theirs only so many times u can hear the metro sound. removed useless qmg files as you have boot animation support. added init d scripts that will remount the system as rw for future tweaks. Remounted the ext 4 system with no barriers except on system and improved io for the partitions.

So I flashed this and noticed a few things..... 1. superuser was not included in the app drawer. 2, market/google play is not on the device... even though google search, gmail, are installed on the phone

other than that the device ran smoothly enough. since everything was wiped... didn't do any speed test/benchmarks or anything just kinda eyeballed it....

if you manage to add these things i'll flash back... but didn't really notice anything worth mentioning

Click to expand...


i added u sorry its late lol.

i thanked u for the kernel if u want i can remove it i was just playing with the 900 mhz version to see how much better or worse off to me not much difference so.... if u want i can remove the kernel and just build my own.

as far as the updater script thanks... I did modify it so it actually perms su and a few other things i added that was not that way before.

oh as far as your cm7 cam goes use the firmware from stock fixes picture taking. :P

Just seemed a little disingenuous is all. I could care less about the updater script, just pointing out what seemed like suspicious parallels. Try to be more transparent in the future.

Np naa i didn't just copy paste your rom if that's what your thinking. But i did ninja the kernel :P... Next update ill just build my own....
 
requisite0 said:
Can't really ninja a kernel, there's too much information from the build environment embedded in the binary.

meaning i used ur kernel lol :P


that's all i meant mate...

anyways like i said if u don't want me to use em ill make my own if u don't mind i did post credit to the kernel to you :P. As i said its late and i meant to put it in there. And if you feel the need to use anything off mine feel free i don't care since were all here to make our shit better.
 
BTW that's a nice "scroll bar" and "Overscroll" color.

Did you use Oxygen ROM as a base? If so, give credit where it's due.
 
Well I was having a couple problems .. 1.market wouldn't update automatically. Waited it out for about 8hours ,cleared data and waited some more and no go. Updated manually. 2. Idkif iI would consider it a SOD"sleep of death" but after locking it and letting it sleep for mode than 5mins. It wouldn't turn back on. The light in the background would light up but when I pressed the wake button I would see the screen shut off animation but nothing but a black screen...

Anywho it felt really smooth the bit of time I played wit it.

for those that were having market issues.. If you havent got it to update or just updated it yourself. When you flash wipe data cache davalk cache format system. Also your market it might not update at all right away. IT will update tho. I know i flashed this rom quite a few times before releasing to make sure.

um no i didnt use oxygen as a base.. The green over-scroll is from touch wiz default over-scroll from a previous device i had i just scaled it to the resoulton of this device....

Where did you place CRT off, I can't seem to find it, It's acting buggy.
Click to expand...

crt off is when u turn the screen off. literately by letting it just go off or putting the device in standby hitting power button. Seance this device isnt fast enough to render crt off properly next update i might remove it.
 
I know what CRT is, I thought you turned it off in your change log. Also, did you try using the CyanogenMod CRT? Or another animation?
 
Also, the sleep of death ^ Mentioned above, is now happening to me too..

Loving the ROM, it's really snappy, once you get it themed, you should give it a name :D
