Nice , but I can't try it, wish there's a 3g version for this....

So do I.

Is there any chance that this ROM is compatible with P7300 (3G) models.

Thanks. +1 for 3g.

Outstanding!! Thanks so much!!!

I'm a little hesitant without a way to nandroid first...unless I missed something and we have a recovery available...?

Nice work by the way...love this and can't wait to slim this thing down.

Yup... me too

The only thing I see is a small file that adds the wpa_supplicant and su binary...I see no ROM *confused*...
