TWRP is coming very very soon.

Don't look now, but i put up a new skunkworks kernel.

Changelog:

1. added the ability to run scripts at shutdown. If you want your phone to run a script on shutdown, place it in /system/etc/shutdown.d and make sure it has the right permissions (same as init.d). I did this so I could have my phone play a nice shutdown sound like I used to have way back when. There's a script there to do that, but it should be off by default. If you want a shutdown sound, you have 3 options:
a. place your audio file here: /system/media/audio/ui/shutdown.ogg
b. place your audio file here: /data/media/audio/ui/shutdown.ogg
c. place the path to your audio file inside a file called /data/misc/shutdown_sound

Note that C overrides B overrides A. Here's the shutdown.ogg I use: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/28682151/shutdown.ogg

2. In my progress towards a working torch, I stumbled upon a fix / hack for the camcorder light. You can now turn the flash on / off manually within the camcorder app. Now I just need to fix the ROM to do the same thing when you hit the torch button somewhere else. That's harder than it sounds. I'm working on it.

3. Not terribly relevant, but I turned on debug information in the camera driver, and left it on. The effect of this is you have a slightly larger kernel, it might be just a tiny little smidge slower when using the camera due to the extra text IO, and your dmesg logs will have a bunch of extra info when you use the camera. Honestly, this was a little bit of an oversight on my part, and I just forgot to shut it off before I built the kernel. Shouldn't be a huge deal, tho, I'll get it in the next one.

Androtransfer is back up to the speeds you all know and love. If you want to know more about why, read on.
So, I've always been quite an open developer, so I'm going to explain what's been happening. Outside of Glitch, stevespear46 and I have been working on adding more open-source support (Such as Gummy, CNA, and AOKP) to the Galaxy S line. That, combined with already high downloads of this kernel (~18,000 per release last I measured) and other developers that I host for, creates quite a bit of traffic. Specifically, 5.25TB so far this month, and it's only the 12th. My hosting company (currently OVH) didn't inform me of this, but instead capped my bandwidth to 8mb/s, which was problematic considering the server runs at 125mb/s pretty much constantly. So, what's being done to fix it: recently I was donated a server by bytemark hosting for first of all a buildbot, but secondly for hosting (for more information see http://glitchteam.com) I do not have bandwidth caps with them. Therefore, every android file for anything I host will be automatically mirrored between two dedicated servers until at least when my OVH lease is up.

What this means for users: If you are a ROM dev that needs hosting, hit me up, I can help. For regular users, downloads will only be limited by your internet connection, never by the server. Which means, I can download a ROM on my connection in 32 seconds.
