This is a port of Android Open Kang Project (AOKP) for the Samsung Galaxy Exhibit (SGH-T679)
There is no gurentee that this will progress beyond its current state however I intend to keep it updated with camcorys updates.
EDIT: as of 120412 I will for sure no longer provide any 4.1 based updates, I'm at work on 4.2 and I'll post it here if I can get a successful boot.

Thanks to...

Kernel Info

http://github.com/arco/samsung-kernel-msm7x30


What is AOKP?
AOKP is similar to cm10 but with hundreds of themeing and customization options to choose from. The speed of AOKP is slightly faster than CM10 as well. For a full list of these features visit

    (The fix to this is have the direct numbers of your local fire and police stations available) if its fixed all pust an update for this

Stuff to Know
  • Internal SD is mounted as /SD card
  • Externel SD is mounted as /external_SD
  • Facebook Sync is not included in AOSP, there are alternatives in the market.
  • occasional screen flicker - set minimum CPU frequency to 368 or possibly 768 and it should go away


How To Install
  • Download ClockworkMod Recovery


  • Download the AOKP ROM


  • Download Google APPs (Contact Sync,Setup,Play Store, ect.)





[Flashing]


  1. Hold home and power buttons until the phone reboots and the Samsung logo appears.
  2. The stock recovery should then apear.
  3. make shure cwm recovery is on the internel SD card and from stock recovery flash the zip file (should be easy to figure out)
  4. reboot recovery again
  5. select backup and restore and do a backup.
  6. do a romwipe and then flash AOKP
  7. *flash gapps
  8. *reboot
  9. AOKP is installed now

I would recomend a ROMWIPE if installing over CM9/CM10 but it is not neccicary


ENJOY!!!!

Great to see all the JellyBean!

going to nandroid my pacman rom and give this one a shot! Really am enjoying all the new roms coming out for this phone! So thank you for the time and effort you put into working on this, the more choices the better! It took awhile, but the Galaxy Exhibit is finally getting the attention it deserves, i mean really, a $200 phone that once rooted and rommed up, can hang in with much higher end phones!!! Time to test lol BTW its about time the Exhibit deserves its own spot in the forums in my opinion! With all the new roms and threads its can be difficult to find all the information about our phone!!!

The galaxy w dev that did aokp has partial camera working. So I'll look into it after school. I also need to put in the official boot animation and the swag papers app doesn't have any wallpapers in it.

Just installed the build. Very nice. I have no big issues so far. Thanks IRX !


Well Im getting some lag now in Google now and when I pull my notification drawer down. I wonder If its the gapps I installed. I installed a modded gapps. But I used the same gapps on cm10. Any suggestions?

Nice start. Tested out the ROM and it recognized my external microSD card. Also, it ran very fast and smooth. Keep up the good work!

Today I'll try and apply iattalagys patch for the w camera on jb. Since he designed if for aokp, there's a chance it could work here

My home button and browser won't work. I wiped cache and dalvik and fixing permissions doesn't work.

Did you do a full wipe before install? My home button and browser work fine. Maybe do a clean install of the aokp and gapps and see if that helps.

I have no idea, everything worked fine for me, do a full romwipe fix perm and install cm10, then flash aokp over that? Can't hurt to try

Ooooook... So I love AOKP.... Its really bare bones.... Fairly fast... Smooth Apex with Touchwiz 5 theme and the animations set to Tablet... Now what I don't like is the inability to set my transparency to 16bit and to turn off surface dithering.... Why? It really helped with the notification drawer jerkyness.... That's my only complaint... The drop down is really jerky and choppy.....

That and I'm having problems with Simple Mobile but that's not the ROM's fault... lol

Otherwise... This is a very very fast ROM and I deff prefer this over Pacman.. x3 Excellent just.. This ROM is near perfect.

Maybe this would help. Got it from the CM10 thread

I was actually having a problem in which my connection kept saying "Cannot establish a secure connection"

I made new APN settings using the instructions on the Straight Talk website....

If "Simple" is your APN... Make a new one... Anyways, that's not the APN for devices running Android 1.6 and up.. According to the website...
Try this one...

Make a new APN...
Name: SIMPLE Mobile
APN*: simple
Proxy:
Port:
Username:
Password:
Server:
MMSC: http://smpl.mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS Proxy:
MMS Port:
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication Type:
APN type:

Case sensitive... So make sure everything is like it's there...
Then select it and you should be set n working again...
It worked WONDERS for me.. 9w6 no more ****ty "Cannot establish secure connection"

I'm certain it'll fix your problem too~

Edit: Odd thing is, on CM7 I didn't have any problems.. But in JellyBean I did.. x3 But yeah this fixed it.
