To the OP, this ROM works great. New widgets, dialer, shortcuts in notification area are amazing.

I'm facing one critical problem though. I can't update or install new apps. It says that system has insufficient memory. I have 260mb of internal memory free, so what is the issue here?

Please help.

Try wiping cache partition from recovery and rebooting. If problem persists, then

1. Take a Titanium backup if you have installed apps and data.
2. Flash the lite version of Night-elf kernel (.img and not .zip)
3. Enter CWM.
4. Clear "data"
5. Install the ROM
6. Reboot.
7. Restore only user apps and green system data from Titanium.

This did not fix the problem. After a point, even Titanium Backup is not able to restore apps. Looks like the amount of space available is not really what is shown in settings. I have around 70+ installed apps (in addition to what comes with the ROM).

Is this because of not using link2sd thing you've mentioned on the first post? Does App2SD work with this ROM?

Here's the screenshot -

from the screenshot, I can see that you are using Link2SD.
Link2SD will not work with this ROM.

Does it mean that I can only download 390mb of apps in this ROM? That's actually less than the stock ROM as I could move apps to SD card in stock ROM.

Can you provide a patch for this so that it works? This is a deal breaker for me.

As in stock ROM you can move apps to sdcard. Link2SD should also work provided the dalvik-cache files are not linked.
Maybe the problem you are facing comes from some wrong system settings from titanium restore. Try to wipe all system data with titanium. Also try disabling Link2SD, wiping it's data and then restarting it again.

Some questions (i'm very new to all these) -

* I loose all my settings if I wipe out system data from Titanium, right?
* How do I disable link2sd and wipe it's data?

    For my ICS ROM, go here -> t=1603919

    1. What is so special about this ROM?
    The main feature is 390 MB is free on /data for your apps!
    attachment.php

    This is the highest free on any custom 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 stock .62 firmware for Neo V
    • Rooted and busybox (latest su binary and Superuser.apk)
    • 12 Notification toggles with QuickPanel app for editing them.
    • Zipaligned (and script)
    • All included apps updated to latest version.
    • Many bloatware apps removed (see the attached list, i can post them on request)
    • ES File explorer, No Frills CPU control added
    • Google maps navigation unlocked for the whole world - credits brutall,ownhere.
    • Battery life is very good (thanks to the Night-elf kernel)
    • Many init.d scripts for smoothness and battery life.
    • UOT kitchen compatible

    5. Where to get this ROM?

    Download (Mediafire - 128 MB)

    Patch for Xperia Neo - Not tested, please try and give feedback!


    Addons:
    new.gif
    Xperia S Mega Pack -> Details and Download
    Custom Battery -> Details and Download
    Transparent Status bar + Toggles -> Download
    Xperia S Dialler Asterix Fix -> Download - (Update 2012-04-06) - Credits Soheil_rf


    6. How to install this ROM.
    1. Copy Downloaded files to SD card.
    2. Flash Night-elf's kernel for stock (latest version 9) [ Instructions ]
    3. Enter recovery by pressing the back key when you see the blue light.
    4. If you were not on stock/stock-based ROM, wipe Data is safer [ AFTER NANDROID BACKUP ]
    5. Install zip followed by any addon required.
    6. 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.


    9. Any reviews?

    10. Why is "Premium" in the title?
    Because there is no re-branding.. The about screen is exactly like stock ROM - no strange names there ;)

    11. No donate button?
    You wont find that on any of my threads.
    And also, this is my daily driver ROM, made for me. I am just sharing it with the hope that it will be useful to somebody else.
    Also, all credits to the kernel dev and all those who made custom ROM's possible! If you still want to donate, please PM me for the link.
