HI ALL !!!
The New CUSTOM ROM ICS : Stable, Fast and Nicely !!!
This Custom Rom ( based on Firmware 4.0.6 ) should be work for all Archos G9 ....but you need to activate SDE menu !
Root version with busybox, module tun.ko, overclock posibility and now, a new thing : posibility to use both processor for almost every Governor !!!
Some app was removed ... and few applications have been added ( Root_Browser, Root_Check, Android_Terminal, No Frills CPU Control, Spare_Parts+, Quadrant_Standard, Books_Play),
The following applications have been updated (/system/app/) : Maps, Google+, Street, Market Play, Music2, Gmail.
Application Launcher2 was updated/modified and by installing this Custom Rom, you lose previous settings for this application !
UPDATE : 04/06/2012
- bootanimation was changed !
- update busybox to v1.20.0 - Stericson !
- fixed touchscreen problem - driver was updated !
- Stweak for enable the second core in all Governor was moved in system/Stweak
( if you want to enable the both core in all Governor just copy Stweak in system/etc/init.d/ - and reboot )
- update kernel ! ( for proper overclock ) ;
Download :
For all users -> for enable overclock , please flash the Test 9 zImage ( in the second post => Test Overclock Kernel !)
Update - The New Custom ROM 04/06/2012 => https://hotfile.com/dl/158453739/accdf6b/rom_04_06_2012.zip.html
Kernel ( zImage - disabled overclock ) => http://www.2shared.com/file/J3xqf8fb/zImage-1.html
Kernel ( zImage - enabled overclock ) => ...please, flash Test 9 zImage...

FOR UPDATE TEST KERNEL => please look to the next post "Test Overclock Kernel" !
The New Custom Rom 26/05/2012
This Custom Rom includes :
- root access;
- busybox ;
- some icon changed ;
- some wallpapers changed ;
- modified Launcher2 ;
- windows animations and posibility to turn off with app Spare Parts+ ;
- overclock posibility ;
- posibility to enable the both cpu on a not hotplug Governor ;
- enabled init.d/ to run scripts ;
- new bootanimation ;
- battery percentage ;
Here you find the files you need, for instal this Custom Rom :
- archos.ext4.update - in archive rom_26_05_2012.zip => https://hotfile.com/dl/156898285/7dd37de/rom_26_05_2012.zip.html
- zImage & initramfs.cpio.lzo - in archive 26_05_2012.zip => http://www.2shared.com/file/iqjadiIa/26_05_2012.html
Install :
- copy archos.ext4.update in /mnt/storage/ , you can use this command > adb push archos.ext4.update /mnt/storage/
- go to SDE -> Developer Edition Menu -> Flash Kernel & Initramfs -> copy here zImage & initramfs.cpio.lzo -> OK! -> wait to reboot .....
- after everything was installed - please reboot your device !
Overclock Frequency :
While the Governor hotplug has the ability to disable one core when not needed, the other Governor has no ability to turn it back !!! I implemented in this Rom something to turn this core on !
To activate the second core, you need the following steps :
- open No-frills CPU Control :
- choose the desired Governor ( but not hotplug ) !
- choose the desired frequency , but not overclocked ! ( when the device will boot - will open with the selected frequency , so please choose max. frequency = your max. stock frequency )
- check "Apply on boot"
- check "Applay"
- check allow if superuser asked permission
- reboot your device !
- Now , both core are available in your selected Governor ( other than hotplug ! ).
( you can check this in Quadrant Standard -> System information : you will see - Cores: 2 / Cores available to Java: 2 )
Screenshot :
Bootanimation
Do not overclok your device for long periods of time ! Overclocking , especially on boot may damage your device !
If you have some problem with touchscreen , please go to Settings -> Repair & formatting -> Touch screen calibration !
