[ROM] Kumar's Leo ROM Series -- CLOSE TO STOCK, FAAAST & STAAABLE

It actually started with my personal need for a stock like ROM with more storage space provided, only the unnecessary applications & files removed without much customizations, enhancements or applications.
Thought of sharing my ROM for the people of my taste in XDA

Known Bugs/Issues & solutions:

* The camera flash won't be working continuously even after selecting manual flash in camera mode- This is not a bug, but a bug which was rectified by HTC to make the camera work like a traditional camera.

* Sound & Display screen is blank white screen - Known issue with ereader tab. Disable & then reenable manila. If you are not using Ereader, disable the Ereader tab.

Excellent ROM!!!

I like your work a lot, it's a stripped down stock this is what I wanted! Our device is already super fast and all we need is stability.

Have you tried the 1.61 as a base m8?

birkoffsjunk · Jan 10, 2010

Been using this mostly all day yesterday, looking forward to the new version.

skr_xd · Jan 11, 2010

Thanks for the feedback.
Been busy with work.

Will try to finish the new ROM in this week ASAP.

Bouloama · Jan 11, 2010

skr_xd · Jan 15, 2010

Waiting for your feedback

FLASH Burnout!

Hi just DL and testing now...one thing...where is the Doc tab?

I have tried all the roms so far and decided to go back to STOCk 1.48 because all cooked roms have issues (some more then others) I need to start using my device for 'WORK' all this flashing was 'PLAY'

but will give your rom a try as it is the closes to stock.

spuri78 · Jan 15, 2010

sk bhai, just flashed your rom - Many thanks - so far it's fast - will changing the page pool size to 16, give more program memory? thanks

The document tab comes with latest manila from 2.0+ ROMs, which are not much stable and have freezing issues(atleast with my 16GB storage card and more documents in it).
So, iam using the stable 1.61 base here, which doesnot include doc tab.
Will try to cook another version based on 2.0+ as soon as it becomes somewhat stable.

Optimal pagepool size increases the application loading speed and thus overall ROM speed considerably.
Therotically it should allow to have more program memory or free RAM.
