First , yes it is much info to read, but it is needed.I am using this great ROM for a while, and just came back to see if there is a good update. But the initial post of this thread has really become very complicated. For a new user I think it is close to impossible to figure out what to download. I understand that you need to emphasize important notes, but now it almost looks like a christmas tree
At this moment I am on a june release, but I have no idea what to download based on the initial post. I will probably just go thru this thread and try to figure out what I need to do, but perhaps you could edit the initial post a bit to make it a bit more clear.
There is a structure , First some blablablablababla about installation and some side info......
Then the sidekick Rom and my personal favor RE-FLEXxx , if you click on the link in that little section you will be redirected to that rom.
Then you got the FLEXREAPER-RELIX rom with the available patch and mods and blablablabla info on what you find in the rom and all the possibilities.
If you don't want a custom rom with all the special stuff just stick to Acer OTA and you don't need to read anything.
I think it is a small effort for the user to take time to read before flashing something. After all I put countless hours in these 2 roms with all the mods and special stuff in them. The regular users of my rom know how it works and where to look. I expect a new user takes the time to learn and read.
Take a look at the V6Supercharger thread,( meaning no disrespect to zeppelinrox as all the info in that post is needed) then I think this thread is still OK for the newbie.
If you look in the thread I can't even make it clear enough what and how to use this rom with all it's futures.
I still got users that install this rom on HC bootloader and got stuck and ask me the question how that is possible?? Not pointing fingers ,and I do understand it but maybe you get my point that info is needed. If you can make me a clearer post , please do and pm me with your layout. I just don't have the time for that.
There are just so many things that I feel the user needs to know. Even a microwave got a longer manuel then this rom.
I could just post the 2 links and post with it , "use at your own risk , mods and tweaks are for you to find out and try".
Well if that is what the users want, they are not getting that from me. I'm old school. I like to read. I even pay for bandw. so my screenshots can be shown all the time for the users.
So for you :
-You want RE-FLEXxx= 4.0.4 A700 ported rom.
RE-FLEXxx_Rev5.2= Stock kernel and aimed for long battery life (but there is no more new releases on that one)
RE-FLEXxx-STRYKER = Tweaked and pre-overclocked and V6Supercharger tweaks and many more exotic stuff (This one gets updates and full rom releases)
So if you pick the RE-FLEXxx-STRYKER_Rev3 you install it and make your settings , then you flash the update patch to Rev4.2 (it is a patch and not a full rom , full rom Rev4.2 will follow)
You want FLEXREAPER-RELIX_Rev7 : You install that one and you do your settings and then you can update to Rev7.1(just a small patch regarding GPS)
With this rom you got more mods then with RE-FLEXxx.
Voila , use at your own risk and blablablabalabalbalabalabala.....ICS unlocked bootloader.........bblblbabaalabalanaba.......custom recovery........
