Idk man. I'm using 1.1GB of my ext partition with native on Sense and performance is definately way better. I still have half of my internal storage, which means I can have around 2.2GB on my ext partition.. I've tried Link2sd and Dark Tremor and it's just too laggy. It is nice for the options, but having it natively use the ext partition seems to dominate performance. Anyways it would be nice to be able to have native in this rom, or at least a option to have it.
So, i reinstalled a2sd and i noticed that when i look in root explorer i dont see my sd-ext folder like i use to. I also noticed if i go into my data/app folder it is seeing my ext because the disk space matches my ext partition of 2gb. I've never seen it do this before, i've always had a seperate folder for sd-ext. I can also see sd-ext in TBackup!

That's actually cool that it tells you your available space on the partition... That means that its working perfectly, the system thinks your ext partition is data/app... I've never got the sd/ext listed in sense when running a2sd only on aosp roms...

Same for me. Go to data/apps and it is my ext partition.

will a couple of the options in the tweaks be implemented at some point? i love having the option to turn my screen on with the volume bar, loved this rom but thats the only thing keeping me on mikg for the time being. keep up the good work guys.
You can use: a2sd cachesd
Dalvik Cache Commands:
--------------------------------------------------
cachesd
Moves Dalvik cache files to the ext2/ext3/ext4
partition on your secure digital card. Creates
Dalvik Cache to SD flag.
File created: /data/.dalvikcacahe
File removed: /data/.dcpartition
cachesdreset
Performs the same function as cachesd, plus
erases the contents of Dalvik-Cache, forcing
a rebuild on reboot.
File created: /data/.dalvikcache
File removed: /data/.dcpartition

yes wimax is enabled, and the base is the official sprint ruu/ota/whatever you wanna call it.
Yup... The base is the official rom.zip extracted from the latest ruu which was the ota update to 2.3.4...

Haven't found a nuisance in newSENSE yet (lol forgive my pun).. This ROM is great, didn't have any trouble flashing with clockworkmod v5.0.2.0. This is the reason why I check the Shift development page every couple days! Bravo. Bravo gentlemen.

Just curious, for someone that hasnt installed RC1 yet, but about to, should I wait a little bit? I dont really need tun support, but if its a later build, I would rather not do 2 installs tonight.

If it works, and all goes well it will just be a flashable zip... So go ahead and install and I'll hopefully have a zip posted later tonight

I noticed that when i wipe dalvik (to install a new theme) and reboot, i no longer have my dalvik to sdext and have to redo a2sd cachesd again. Has anyone else experience this?

It might be because the ROM is de-odex. I will investigate some more...
And... tun.ko, cifs.ko kernel is done and compiled... Someone that can test this please pm me or gtalk me... I'm assuming it works because the open vpn installer says its good to go...

11About the kernel... It is based off of htc's 2.6.35.10 kernel source. The clock tables, voltages and added governors are a combination of the 5 kernel developers I mention below. I also added v(r) i/o scheduler, thanks mdeejay from Team Virtuous.
This has been a long time coming. :beer: First I have to thank my wife and kids for being so patient while I stared at a computer screen. Endless thanks to one_love_420 and Dread 7us for all their hard work, knowledge, and patience. Huge thanks goes to Dodgejcr, for taking the time to teach me almost everything I know about kernels, answering my noobish questions, and writing up some awesome tutorials located at his website http://dodgejcr.com. Tommy Tomatoe has been such a great help to all of us, we can't thank you enough. I have some more thanks to give to a few other people, in no particular order toastcfh, scaryghoul, mdeejay, dodgejcr, x99 (kernel sources to compare, and help trouble shooting), aamikam (a2sd trouble shooting), strapped365 (panorama camera), and htc (base kernel source). Last but not least, the whole Shift community, a.k.a. the best community on xda. I hope you enjoy this ROM as much as we did making it. If I forgot to thank anyone, please let me know and I'll add you.
Edit: Here is a link to custom skins for those that are interested... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1048894
