Does the custom kernel you are planning include overclocking and swap support???

Swap can address the low RAM problem on the ace.....

One thing at a time!

I'm just trying to develop a base I am comfortable with for now. Please don't expect the world from day one. That being said, I will be putting a significant amount of time into this rom over the next few weeks, so it will definitely improve over time.

I've just wasted the last couple of hours messing around with the ramdisk attempting to implement custom bootanimation functionality. Unfortunately I haven't yet got it working, so I think I'll take the rest of the evening off and pick this up again in the morning!

Some small ideas of what's been done so far:

- De-odexed build (improving system space)
- 2 tweaks which increase free memory
- Annoying 'OHAI THE BATTERY IS FULL ALERT' removed via smali - no more audio notification or screen on to say OHAI, meaning no more 3am wake ups.
- Menu key will now unlock phone on lock screen
- Removed some bloatware

Now.. I was going to use the STOCK gingerbread launcher, rather than the touchwiz launcher... but I'd like people's opinions on that. I could easily make a batch file which would swap them back to original.

Tomorrow my initial plans will be:

- Have another go at implementing custom bootanimation support (had a lot of bad luck with it today)
- Add 'Reboot to Recovery', 'Reboot to Download Mode' and 'Reboot' to the power menu

AFTER THE INITIAL RELEASE, I will then start looking into:

- Custom OC/UV kernel
- Porting ClockworkMod or creating my own recovery image
- More significant changes and rom work

Anyway - again... please don't expect the miracle ROM you've been waiting for since day one. Consider this a stable, solid base for changes to follow!

RE: People asking about TW4... I'm not going to be looking at that for a few days, so I'm not qualified to give you an answer!

Anyway.. I'll be in here again tomorrow keeping you updated. I expect to have something out by 5pm GMT.

But does it still show up in the notification-bar? Because my battery gauge (using launcher pro) shows me 100% while it still takes up to 30 minutes or more until the "battery full alert" shows up.

nevertheless, great job done so far. can't wait for your work

+1 for Gingerbread Launcher (or Zeam launcher, I don't like touchwiz

)

Thank you so much for your hard work!

I'm working on a 2.3.3 ROM - which will be released shortly. Once released, I'll be looking at adding 2.3.4 changes (namely Google Talk with video/audio chat).

I was hoping to release today, but then I encountered the Wifi/SDHC issue. Anyone heard of a fix for that, or at least the cause? Otherwise I will be starting from scratch in locating the issue.

Thanks in advance buddy for atlast trying for SGA

I would prefer Stock GB launcher over TW

danang1982 · May 18, 2011

i agree with u, at least we had a stable custom ROM as a base for further development.

also, +1 for GB launcher

wish u all of good luck

+1 for stock gingerbread launcher..tw always feels like a cheap iphone copy..

Custom boot animations would be awesome!! Samsung always uses some weird format for boot animations..
