1. Neo V camera has Neo(MT15i) libs hence the pictures are red and inverted.
2. Good to have the standard reboot option in the power menu. I think you can’t put that in notification bar icons coz u r not using Quickpanel settings .
3. Will suggest you to continue without the QuickPanel, but add the brightness slider to the notification bar
4. Smoothness ofcourse feels good in GB

Looking forward to a nice update :good:

Thanks

Looks delicious, gonna try out right away. Just wondering, could you maybe make an optional addon that restores the default looking battery and what not? Like, making it more defaults-sony :)?

I can try creating the pack for you if you wish :) It may take a few days, I wanna role out V2 of this ROM then got some uni work to do, but I will make time ;)

Actually you dont have to worry that much about it. I can grab the nessesary files from other 2.3.4 roms and merge into your rom :) But thanks! What you could do, if possible, is maybe change the sound switch thing, in the lockscreen, to a camera shortcut? That'd be so awesome! BTW, the rom is sooo snappy and only 14 mb internal space used? Impressive, man!

I can try and get that sorted ;) Thanks for your feedback mate! V2 coming soon! Aiming to keep the ROM as small as possible ;)

Can you make V2 also like a "patch"? Not full rom, you know? I've already edited the visual aspects of the rom (no offense to your work, everyoen just have their own taste :p) and it would be cool not to overwrite those changes with original files.

Also, a suggestion; extended power menu with reboot to recovery etc. EDIT: Nvm, I see its on the changelog of V2.

Keep up the good work, good with some GB roms :)!

Due to the amount of changes being made, it might not be possible, Just backup all the apps you have on there using a tool and replace them? If not, I can make one just for you ;)

Oh, its not a big deal.. I guess that the thing can just be installed on top of v1, right? or is a clean install needed?

New framework-res.apk or Framework.jar? When do you expect to release it? I might as well wait then :)

Both ;)

Yeah, this has been noted. I need the GB drivers, I had the ICS drivers. Sorry! Planning on fixing this ASAP! :)

I'm not entirely sure why I'm using the Neo V topic since I have a Neo, but yeah. When I install the Neo Patch 2.0 I get:

mount() expects 4 args, got 3
E:Error in /sdcard/Neo Patch v2.0.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.

I also noticed in your thread on the Arc forum that people reported FC's. I too crash with the gallery and when I go into a contact, infinite view crashes.
