[ROM][CWM][KD1] GingerClone v2 (AospMod) Update2 + TMW v3.0 ROM/Theme [9.2.11] - PDT

---

This here is a fast, slim, and VERY stable Froyo 2.2.1 ROM Based on the KD1 firmware for the Sidekick 4G. This was built with the idea of making the Samsung software functional with as little Touchwiz as possible, knowing how much samsungs overlay on android can bog the phone down and this ROM is proof of it. I've taken a lot out and themed what was left.
With that being said, most touchwiz/Samsung specific crap is removed. This is an AOSP clone so there is extremely minimal bloat and any unnecessary apps you don't expect to find in an aosp ROM most likely isn't in here.

GingerClone v2 [AospMod] Update2.zip (123.95 MB) ! (8.25.11)

Download:TouchMIUIwizPDT-v3.0 [AospMod].zip (129.37 MB)

What is TouchMIUIwiz v3.0 [AospMod] ?
its Exactly the Same ROM as the GCv2 AospMod, without the gingerbread theming. ALL theming from framework to icons are TouchMIUIwiz v3.0 but has same apps from GCv2 AospMod, not more, not less. The Boot animation is a Normal M Logo, and the shutdown is the same as TouchMIUIwiz v3.0. This would be for anyone who likes the lightness and feel of gingerclone v2 and want the look of TouchMIUIwiz. They have the same tweaks and all apps are up to date. All lastest updates are included as well. Anything left if themed like TouchMIUIwiz v3.0. Also, its a ROM not a flashable theme.

Install Instructions

---

Instructions - NOTHING NEW, if you know the drill then go ahead and install.

- Put zip file in your /sdcard
- Reboot into cwm recovery
- Wipe Data/Factory Reset
- Wipe Cache Partition
(Optional but recommended to prevent any minor issues)-Wipe Dalvik Cache from advanced menu in CWM

*Now before you Flash, Only if you are on the orange CWM, (Not RED voodoo CWM from Bali) if on red CWM ignore the mounts/unmount part*
MAKE SURE YOUR MOUNTS LOOK LIKE THIS: (Go to mounts and storage from CWM recovery)

UNMOUNT CACHE
MOUNT DATA
MOUNT SDCARD
UNMOUNT SYSTEM - this is the ONLY mount you pay mind to, not Sdcard or anything else

- Now its safe to Flash the .zip

(AGAIN IGNORE UNLESS IF YOU ARE ON A RED VOODOO RECOVERY) after you flash, go back to mounts and storage and make sure your mounts look like this

UNMOUNT CACHE
MOUNT DATA
UNMOUNT SDCARD
UNMOUNT SYSTEM

(Optional but recommended)-Wipe Cache then Wipe Dalvik Cache from advanced menu in CWM before Rebooting.

(To First Time installers, System Needs to be set to Unmount, though it would really be mounted. If you do Not do this you will have a softbrick and will have to ODIN to stock and start all over ....) Once you have Flashed a Custom ROM or Bali 2.2 Kernel you dont have to worry about mounts

AFTER THE ROM BOOTS, i Recommend letting it sit for about 5 mins without use so cache and stuff builds back up, then log into google from gmail/market or someway, let google sync for 5 mins then reboot again. then you will have your Sidekick 4G in the best state its ever been

this rom by far has the smoothest feel to it, and the green color plus AOSP is definitely a nice theme.
the rom is a nice change and especially if you like v1 of gingerclone you will love this.
i reccomend trying it out i haven't noticed any bugs yet.

Thanks man, And thanks for testing it out for me i appreciate it.

another thing even after reinstalling all my apps 20 of them which go onto the system not the sd card(not moveable) i still have 350mb and with other roms i had less then that when i installed the rom!

How did you get that score on Quadrant? I'm only getting 1100ish...

That's odd. With this ROM I haven't gotten too much below 1600, I get 1700+ average on quadrant but I get 2100+ when overiclocked at 1.152 Ghz

When you flashed the ROM did your lagfix enable ?

My bad, I was using the global variant of quadrant. With the standard edition I get about 17xx. *Edit* Solid 2000 when OC'd to 1.2GHz. */Edit*
