Looks like a great ROM, good job. However, bareback is something entirely different from bareBONES in your ROM description

Since this is a fairly new release will there be any changes /updates say within the day or the next? If so I'll wait till then to try but so far everything looks and sounds great but yes as the other mentioned barebacked doesn't equal bareboned.

Why did you take out Google Talk? AFAIK it cannot be installed via an apk. is there a way you could make a zip that would put it back for people who wanted it? I kinda also wanted the voice search, but I can live without it.

Otherwise A+ great rom, glad to see ICS on this device!

Sometimes an early write to backlight/brightness can fix early blank screen start-up issues (put the below somewhere near the top of init.rc or init.omap4430.rc):

write /sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/brightness 127

It seems like I can only mount storage via usb if usb debugging is off? Is this normal?

The last update that came out today fixed most of the bugs. I would flash now since i fixed them today. Anyways you can just reflash a new rom over this one. As i know of. The only bug is the 15 Seconds pitch black bootup but that is being fixed will release in a week or so when i have more things to update. Wow i barely noticed my mistake thanks.

Just google "google apps" and download the latest ics version and flash that. You should get all the google apps missing.

Since the latest update "June 4th" i fixed this since i took off that option by default. So it should properly mount.

Agreed with prior post, unsure why Google Talk would be removed, as it's a messenging app (that also happens to support voice & video on devices that have those capabilities).

Thanks for the rom anyhow, please keep it up to date :)

I don't think any of the recent ROMs (Simple, gedeROM, Vanilla, ...) have issues with deep sleep. If there's an issue then it's probably a rogue app that was installed...

In the KFire-Android Github "device-amazon-otter" project you can find these in the "root" folder.

During the build these files are placed into the ramdisk of the boot.img which is added to the .zip

Hope that helps.
