[ROM][UPDATE 15.08.2014] TizenMod v.2.1 by Skin1980

Hi all my friends, i'm here to present the First Tizen Custom Rom for Gear 1.


Features:

- Based on the last NF1;
- Rooted;
- battery saver tnx to a specific script that help when u use the gear with non samsung phone;
- boot animation and shutdown animation changed with Tizen stock from emulator;
- removed camera sound;
- added Android L font (roboto light);

New in v2.0:

- added the options to install custom ringtones, alarms and alerts;
- added the options to install custom boot and shoutdown animations;
- added the option to install custom icon (only for stock apps ATM);
- added the option to install custom fonts (broken ATM... need test);
- added the option to set cpu governor ( slp ( stock), tizen_phone, ondemand_org, powersave, performance);
- added the option to set cpu max freq ( 800Mhz, 700Mhz, 600Mhz, 400Mhz);


New in v2.1:

- fix for the installation of custom ringtones, fonts etc. IMPORTANT: Audio and Fonts file names don't have to contain space or special char. For audio Mp3s work fine.


Installation:

To install this you have first to update the gear to the last NF1 FW:

1- Reboot gear in download mode;
2- Download Odin 3.09
3- in AP field select the ROM file;
4- Press start and wait till finish..


HOWTO:

In order to use all the customization options you need to use sdb:

1- enable USB debug in the watch settings;
2- connect the watch to the PC and open a shell
3- navigate to the folder where u put the sdb binary and then:


...now you are in the gear shell, so:

setup folders with:
...this script create some folders on your gear mass-memory, accessible from windows or linux, just copy your ringtones, alarms, alerts, fonts into the relative folders.

- The custom boot and shutdown animations must be copy into the root and must be renamed to poweron.edj and poweroff.edj
- The icons must be renamed like the ones u find in the simple theme attached at this post ( take care of the size);

...then do these commands to install your stuff:

To adjust the cpu max freq and governor:

.. a textual menu will be showed, select a number and press enter. The settings will stick over reboot.

Suggest are welcome.

Other than themeing what other features are you planning?
What kind of control do we have over the device, can we mod the kernel and enable oc/uv, etc?
Could we finally extend the camera record time with full resolution?
Or are we limited to changes that can already be made with stock Rom and root?

This seems like a good start and I would be glad to see custom Tizen roms with added features.

Basically all the custom ROM based on stock firmware don't have anything more that you can do also with only root.

Said this, we can have a custom kernel also if I personally don't feel the need of over clock or undervolting. This doesn't mean that this will never be done.

BTW you gave me nice suggestion and I thank you for this

Not going to jump way off topic here, but..well, maybe a bit. Have you been happy with your G3? Mine is sluggish it seems. Mainly in the menus, draw and keyboard at times just stops for a good 5-10 seconds before I see the rest of my text I entered show up. Been contemplating returning it to t-mobile before my 14 days runs out. I tried it stock for a couple days, then tried both custom ROMs that are available for it all with the same results. Pretty sure it will be fixed with updates but when is my concern.

Mine is updated to 10g and goes quite well. I put animation scale to 0.5x and installed nova launcher. Stock keyboard don't work well, at least with the prediction, so i use android L keyboard.
