Personal note:
One year ago, my father wanted to change his old nokia 6630, so I recommended him to buy an android, precissely the Galaxy R because of its nvidia tegra chip, it's good specs and it's good price. At first, it gave some problems, random reboots, freezes. I was afraid that I didn't made him a good suggestion buying this mobile phone. When he bought it, the developer community for Galaxy R was nearly inexistant. That made me sad because I owned a Nexus S and there was a great support for it. His mobile phone came with Gingerbread 2.3, and i wanted to install him a ICS rom, unfortunately nvidia and samsung's sources weren't out, so I had to wait. I just wanted him to have such a good phone as mine, with the same support and with the latest android version. The other day I saw adam77Root with help of other xda developers could build a good device tree for Galaxy R, so I thought, why not try to build AOKP for Galaxy R (I personally love AOKP roms)? So I tried to build it, but I was getting some errors compiling. So I started adapting the device tree to work with AOKP, just minor changes. After some time debugging I could successfuly build my first rom from Source. So I'm very happy and I hope you enjoy it as much as I've enjoyed building it.
What works:
- Mobile network
- Data connection
- Audio (microphone may or may not work)
- Wi-Fi
- Video player (may or may not work)
- Accelerometer, orientation, magnetic field, light, proximity, battery temperature sensors
- BLN feature (you need either the free or the paid version of BLN Control from Play Store)
- Auto brightness needs manual workaround (See later.)
Known Bugs (Same as CM10 Adam77Root build):
- Camera (even the app isn't included)
- BlueTooth
- Gyroscope (It is disabled deliberately as it causes issues with deep sleep.)
