For what its worth, removing a standard bootanimation wont speed up bootup at all, and I've yet to see any proof that increasing dalvik heap beyond 80 has any quantifiable positive impact (in fact most would agree 64 is the golden point). In fact, you may experience negative impact.

It does a little bit, under my tests, the stock bootanimation is quite large (almost 2MB and the empty one i have here is only less than 4KB), it needs to load and play that.

Increasing heap is just placebo, everything is smooth for me

I find Launcher Pro to be the fastest launcher with CM7. I used to use go launcher ex and have repeatedly given it more chances but it has become so bloated and it is noticeably slower than LP. Also used ADW for a bit, but always come back to LP for its blistering speed (currently with weekly #5 and faux's 1.3 kernal...).

You sound exactly like me! However, have you tried ADW Launcher EX? it is more optimized and uses hardware acceleration on the ICS ROMS - I caught myself a copy during the $0.10 sale google had during the holidays. Still came back to Launcher Pro lol

Another issue is that Launcher Pro seems to seize advancement, I think it is abandoned?

I use ADW launcher EX, can't seem to get used to another one.

Loving the ROM, however there's only one issue I'm having, sometimes the status bar gets stuck when dismissing notifications individually; tried to remove one by sweeping it to the side and it just sticks midway through, after that the statusbar buttons and of course notifications don't work. It has happened twice already.

Not sure, does always do that when you dismiss one by one? I don't usually do that but I will have to test it. Probably CM7.2 issue?

    Sorry guys, life has been... off lately. Also collecting a few mods here and there. I will try to make morrisoft gen 1.1 soon
    5
    I wanted to be on CM7 is so that I can implement my ideas officially to CM7 tree, therefore, all the CM7 based ROMs can inherit and enjoy the features uniformly. I am letting the idea go, it is just that other ROM's will have to implement my fixes, patches, apps etc manually if they want to.

    I won't comment on what other people said; I just want to make a clarification.

    You don't need to be "on CM" so you can't implement your ideas. That's not how it works. If you have a great idea, and want to share it, what you do is
    1. Implement it - on the source code, not by using apktool on someone's zips/apks
    2. Upload it to CM's Gerrit for review
    3. Wait until someone reviews and approves the changes
    4. ...
    5. PROFIT!

    CM is a community where developers improve on AOSP's code and share their improvements. The fact that anyone can collaborate is what makes CM great. If you have a cool idea, you implement it, you share it, and it ends up being part of, in my opinion, the best ROM around. Most of the CM features are made that way; from support for bluetooth GPS mice to the "bubbles" lockscreen and tweaks to various android components.

    On the other hand, if you take a ROM, any ROM, and edit it with reverse engineering tools, and just post the result, you're really not helping anyone, and your changes will be forever stuck on that ROM you release. Besides, working with such tools is most of the time more complicated that working on the real source code when available.

    Now, if you really want to contribute, and as I see you're building on top of someone's zip ("based on Neutrino"), you should start by reading on how to get the code and build CM[1], then read how to use Gerrit [2]. If you're going to modify system applications, I'd also recommend you learn some Java; I don't personally know much, so I cannot suggest you any learning resource, but surely some other XDA members might be able to do so.

    I hope this post is helpful for you, and good luck on your modding future.
