This ROM is based on the awesome work of kasper_h with some improvements on stabilty and the latest source from CM, so it's pretty close to stock.

Kernel is the mackay kernel updated to latest 3.0.y linux branch, with some improvements from the stock one.

Improvements/fixes:
Device:
  • App2sd fixed (init procedure adapted from galaxy sl rom)
  • General code cleanup
  • Triple buffering for smoother animations
  • Enabled WebGL
  • Increased powervr buffer size (powervr.ini from Eviscerations velox rom)
  • Charger suspend implementation to turn off screen in charger mode
  • Proximity sensor on call screen fixed
  • Other minor performance tweaks in Boardconfig, init...

    (patches mostly taken from galaxy s/sl CM rom)

Kernel:
  • Kernel patched to latest 3.0.101
  • Included lots of patches from the latest LG kernel sources

Full wipe is necessary since the mountpoint and procedure of the sdcard is changed!

Known issues:
- Video recording is crappy as usual... (if someone is interested in helping to port the camera hal, please let me know)
- Wifi hotspot (?)

Install:
If you have mackay rom or another cm10.1 based rom => full wipe!

Flash with with CWM or TWRP recovery, then flash the gapps on top.

Update: somehow i got the lg camera hal working, previews are working fine, but the capturing doesn't trigger, settings (white balance, exposure...) don't take effect, no autofocus and the image is blueish.
strangely video recording works fine :confused:

Hmm. Good work mate. I am happy with CM10 build but if you get the camera to normal, i will try your ROM. By normal i mean CM standards, i don't have high expectations. ;)

and by cm standards i hope you mean p970 standards and not galaxy s standards :p

seriously the lg camera hal is nothing for ordinary mortals like me... a lot of features are controlled by the fw3a binaries and icapture lib, and i can't find the sources for them anywhere.

btw the camera in my build works, just on hd video recording sometimes it freezes and has low framerates (usual p970 standard :p)
as i remember well this bug was also present on cm10, correct me if i'm wrong :)

Ah, ok then mate. I thought camera was troubled. If it is normal CM quality on P970 then i will try it when i have the phone empty for couple of days. I don't care much about video, a decent photo quality is enough for me, in case i need it. Thanks.

at least photo capturing works just like on stock rom.
neither do i care about video, but then comes this moment 2-3 times a year where you think "damn, i can't record this crazy sh*t" :D

    Works just fine. Was forced to come back to Mackay ROM after velox and appreciate that camera fully works :)

    EDIT: Good to be back to Mackay. everything's flawless.

    Factory reset is required or you will end up with double folders in your gallery and other strange things..
