[ROM][ICS 4.0.4][27-Jun] Spacious, smooth and light ICS
- Thread starter shardul_seth
- Start date
The latest ICS kernel source has not been released by Sony.. only then we can use the latest.
But till then, we can use Night-Elf kernel for OC..
Please use v6 Supercharger script for maximum performance and smoothness!
Steps:
1. Install the fixed su binary from here (sorry to not include it already)
2. Install the latest v6 supercharger from here
For both these steps, you'll need Script Manager [ mobile link ]
On-screen buttons

Anyone has default wifi modules from .562, because before using this rom with stock kernel I used i-scream with nightelf or everything is okay and I don\t have to mrestore everything?
Is there easier method to install v6 Supercharger?
Is there easier method to install v6 Supercharger?
But I've read, that some modules from nightelf remain and it's not good for wifi.
Is it the truth or I don't have to worry about anything?
How should I set limit of apps in background.
I'll install v6 Supercharger too.

If you are only installing kernel, then yes!
But if you are installing this ROM, then no!
Any idea?
Edit:
After installing SCH v6 my phone isn't faster, but even slower.
I've made all, what was in guide.

Were you on night-elf kernel?
Did you install v2 or v1 of this ROM?
If it was v1, did you format system as described in the install instructions..
Could you add option to reset system/to recovery/fastboot when you hold power off button to nex verion and oc to next version of kernel + some build in memory minfree tweaks (to not have to install Supercharged v6)?
I installed v1, and night-elf kernel lite. Also wiped data, format system !!!
Of course it does, but if you were using night-elf kernel, you will have to flash your ROM again

65In continuation of the highly appreciated Spacious, smooth and light Gingerbread ROM, I present you the ICS version!!
Works on Locked bootloader also as reported by FTW_260
1. What is so special about this ROM?
The main feature is 400 MB is free on /data for your apps!
This is the highest free on any custom ICS ROM for the Neo V.
2. How is this made possible?
a) This ROM has been ODEXed. Hence all dalvik files for system apk's are in the /system partition itself!
b) Dalvik-cache has been moved to the /cache partition.
3. Why ODEX the ROM?
a) ODEX ROM's load up faster the first time
b) ODEX'ed system apks do not create .dex files in dalvik-cache, hence size of dalvik-cache decreases. This is required so that there is enough room on the /cache partition for the dalvik-cache also.
4. What are the features of this ROM?
- Based on official stock ICS firmware for Neo V
- Rooted and busybox (latest su binary and Superuser.apk)
- 12 Notification toggles with QuickPanel app for editing them
- Many bloatware apps removed
- File manager (ES File explorer) added
- My tweaks for better performance
- UOT kitchen compatible

6. How to install this ROM.
- Copy Downloaded files to SD card.
- Enter recovery by pressing the back key when you see the blue light with vibration.
- If you were not on stock/stock-based ROM, wipe Data is safer [ AFTER NANDROID BACKUP ]
- Install the ROM zip.
- Optionally install optional packs (open and delete whatever you dont want)
- Reboot to you new Spacious, Smooth and Lightwieght ROM
7. Any disadvantages of ODEX'ed ROM?
The only disadvantage is that you cannot install custom themes on the ROM.
But, mind you, UOT kitchen can be used to change a lot of the UI.
8. But why not use Link2SD or Dalvik2SD?
It has its own problems, most important being io speeds from the card and problems when card is removed.
10. Credits?
