GingerDX
Intro
This project is a continuation of doixanh's personal ROM, known as GingerDX.
("Ginger" as in "Gingerbread", and "DX" as in short for "doixanh")
Brought to you by TeamFun:
eagleeyetom, djnilse and AChep.
I (GermainZ) am building GingerDX based on bieltv.3's latest sources, with permission from both TeamFun and bieltv.3.
(You can find the original GingerDX for the X8 here)
As set in stone by doixanh, the main goal is to have a fast, smooth and lightweight CM7 based ROM with some special features.
Before we begin:
GingerDX now even has its own IRC channel!
If you feel like chatting with each other or hanging out with us:

NOTE: Before you click the link to get to FreeNode's webchat or fire up your IRC clients:
The developers are NOT your personal support helpdesk nor root of endless knowledge.
If you are a developer or have a really urgent or tricky problem come tell us about it.

4. If you have battery drain, try the following:
- Clear battery stats in recovery.
- Freeze unused services (like Email, DSP Manager, Maps). This is important.
- Turn OFF 'Allow mock locations'.
- Don't set brightness too high.
- Don't install too many unused apps.
- Turn OFF WiFi, 2G, 3G, GPS, Bluetooth when not in use.
- Reboot after you listen to music. Music service caused battery drain (in the past).
- Full wipe in recovery, re-install GingerDX.
- Use Stock ROM for several days to see if the battery problem is caused by GingerDX or not.
- If it doesn't drain, try installing one of your apps, test battery for a day, install another one, and test.
- and so on...
