  • In between the default none and the highest at Optimized (Figure it's a better compromise)
• Other stuff that I'll probably never remember.

Theme
Sorry. No time. Beta 2 Preview will still work.


Beta 3 Changelog
Warning! New update may result in the user developing inappropriate feelings towards the device. Do not attempt to have a romantic relationship with the device. Doing so may result in an electric shock or a broken heart when the device cheats on the user with younger, softer fingers.

ROM

• Added Nexus Boot Animation
• Re-added Exchange.apk
• Reverted to old Trebuchet to have trebuchet settings in app drawer menu
  • HIGHLY Recommended to disable wallpaper scrolling and turn off "fade side pages" for performance
  • Still I recommend Apex, but include trebuchet because you can't get it on the market
  • If you use another launcher make sure to increase the minimum scrolling time / decrease scrolling speed all the way in launcher and drawer. Helps with lag.
• Switched to AOKP ICS keyboard
  • volume keys to move cursor (samsung keyboard still there as always)
• Optimized some Apks
  • Optimized Framework-res.apk to make it about 25% smaller
  • Optimized TWFramework-res.apk to make it about 8% smaller
  • Optimized Trebuchet.apk launcher to make it about 10% smaller
  • Optimized secSettings.apk to make it about 50% smaller
  • Eventually I'll do more...
• Misc. Build.prop tweaks, for most of which I am clueless whether they work in ICS or not. Can't hurt.

KERNEL

• Fixed Overclocking so it isn't reset back down to stock by by samsung's DVFS.
  • Now OC will actually make things faster!
  • Oh man... Took me hours and hours trying to figure this out...
• Disabled default Nitro OPP cycling so people who can't overclock can still use included kernel.
  • No more bootloops! (hopefully)
• Overclocked RAM frequency slots (Test)
  • Raised 200Mhz slot to 266mhz
  • Raised 400Mhz slot to 533mhz
• Enabled/Patched/Tweaked PegasusQ governor from GS3 (Test)
  • additional tweaks courtesy of siyahkernel
• Re-enabled Memory Compaction
  • let's see how it compares to "without"
• Turned on KSM page merging as well to compliment Memory Compaction.
  • Let's get the most out of the available RAM and see how much it impacts performance
• Disabled Gentle Fair Sleepers
  • small improvements to UI responsiveness
• VM tweaks to ramdisk
  • Typical tweaks to improve UI performance
• LZO kernel compression
  • Faster Boot
• Switch congestion protocol to Westwood+ for faster wifi when managing heavy traffic
  • Or was that added in beta? shrug
• Other tweaks to governors, overclocking, etc.

THEME
Nada. Beta 2 preview will still work fine for now.

As always there's probably plenty of stuff I forgot about...

Beta 2 Changelog
Warning! - Update makes the ROM so fast and smooth that the human eye can't keep up. Might cause headaches for some.

- ACTUALLY removed Samsung's Touch Boost this time for improved battery life.

I'm not super comfortable putting this up, as I don't want to seem like I'm asking for charity or demanding payment. Please don't feel obligated. I do this work for free because I like improving our devices.

Anyway, I'm a broke college student without a job this summer - instead taking extra classes and studying like crazy for the MCAT. If you like my work and want to thank me, feel free to buy a coffee or an energy drink so I can continue to stay up late studying and working on Android stuff. I don't want to have to choose! Thanks and I appreciate your support!

Works on P3110 model?

I don't have one so I wouldn't know. Do other 3113 Roms/kernels work on the 3110? I don't even know the difference.

1. Is this the ROM you were originally thinking of calling MetallicICS?

2. If I'm on rooted stock, is this just a wipe cache, Dalvik, and system, then install?

3. Does this preserve hardware acceleration (making it Chrome browser-compatible)?

4. Please consider adding a list in the OP of the apps you've removed.

Xoomdev said that no P3113 ROMs will work on the P3110 but he will attempt to work on it when they get a way of recovering in case something goes wrong.


Also, excited to try a stock debloated ROM, BAMF was good but I don't like some of the UI changes.

2. I would also wipe data, but you can try just doing the minimum but know that if it starts acting up you may have to wipe everything.

3. It's basically stock so I would expect it to.

4. Fixed by OP.

1. Is this the ROM you were originally thinking of calling MetallicICS?
Yes, MetallicICS will be AOSP-like theme.

2. If I'm on rooted stock, is this just a wipe cache, Dalvik, and system, then install?
Just Wipe Data/Factory Reset in clockwork and Install.

3. Does this preserve hardware acceleration (making it Chrome browser-compatible)?
Yes. HWA works as it is TW based. Chrome works fine.

4. Please consider adding a list in the OP of the apps you've removed.
Done. Seperated into which apps can be installed after-the-fact like normal apps and those that can't.

Okay, going to give this a try!

Nice work, I'm surely gonna try .Keep up.

Hmmm, I'm getting infinite reboots after installing the zip from cwm. I was coming from CM9-RC0, wiped everything, even formatted /system, /cache, /data from cwm menu, and still infinite reboots. I checked the md5 of the downloaded zip file and it's good. Not sure what I'm doing wrong here...

Bad upload. Don't flash.

Reuploading now... 60%...

Ok. Done. Let me know if it works now. Otherwise, replace boot.img in the zip with the boot.img from a stock install.zip and see if it works then.
