well its strange... from stock Rom to this Rom theres a huge difference in Performance in every aspect of the phone. Maybe you have a defective phone? some people seem to have some issues (like unable to install Roms or Install custom recovery, even laggy phones)

if i dont do a wipe will there be any problems when i install a new rom? its bloody troublesome always reinstalling all the apps. how do you guys do it? Backup using titanium or some app then only install a new rom? Am using B160 now but really wanna try the void rom. Will all my apps and settings still be untouched if I just install the void rom using CWM? Anyone tried this before?

I always Titanium backup and then restore (you can restore all your apps and data). Well, not wiping may cause instability in the new Rom, Force Closes and many more stuff. So it's always recommend you wipe cache and data before proceeding with a new flash.

I'm backing up my apps using Titanium backup. Works pretty good, the settings wont be untouched if you don't backup. Always wipe data and cache before a new rom

Thats Quadrant right? at what speed? You have to notice that quadrant isn't that great benchmark and gives different scores all the time. for instance I/O varies way too much. Try Antutu, and also you should care about your android experience and not numbers.

An example: with void.#a I had a score of 3k in Quadrant @1,5ghz and never managed to get it so high again (always around 2500/2700 now) but my android experience increased much more with this last version. mobile feels more responsive and fast.

2600 with 1ghz?

Since I was trying to flash for half an hour and failing on it and getting stucked at first boot screen, I have a suggestion for you :)

Don't be a noob and have NAND restore for trying to make skype work to your first times on the device. Aye, it rolls you to the old clockworkmod and make you flash, flash and flash again :)

Just check your recovery version ;)

By the way; since it deletes the cust directory, I think we should try to reinstall swype. Am I right?

    void.
    -adjective-
    useless; ineffectual; vain.
    devoid; destitute.

    Presenting you my first ROM for Huawei X5 u8800.

    Following the same line of thought and philosophy as void. and devoid. for LG P500, this ROM is focused on performance and minimalism. I hate ROMs out there which impose you their applications, keyboard, launchers and any other trash. No, it's my belief we have market for some reason, so use it.

    Version syntax: #galaxy-name-from-a-to-z


    Features:

    * 137 base - 2.2.2
    * deapked
    * deodexed
    * zipaligned
    * rooted
    * busyboxed
    * build.prop tweaks
    * gps tweaks
    * browsing tweaks
    * ramdisk tweaks
    * patched hosts
    * strict minfree handler tweak
    * more ram and misc tweaks
    * auto-zipalign tweak
    * ext4 i/o speed tweak
    * sdcard write speed tweak
    * smoothass default governor
    * auto-oc to 1000 Mhz
    * camera click sound removed
    * camera libs from 160 (credits)
    * ringtones, notifications, alarm sounds from CM
    * stock launcher / gingerbread keyboard (w\ dict)
    * gingerbread theme from TheManicGibbon (credits)
    * honeycomb bootanimation
    and...
    * my own custom kernel (first and only release probably) @ #andromeda-cygnus
    * francoKernel @ #draco onwards.

    void. kernel features: -discontinued-
    (built from flibblesan sources)
    * ext4, oc up to 1.5 ghz, cifs, tun, swap, bfqio and smartass governor (credits to him and genokolar) > #andromeda
    * rewritten touchscreen driver and led driver (credits to dzo) > #andromeda
    * smoothass governor (improved smartass) > #andromeda
    * v(r) scheduler instead of bfqio (much better) > #cygnus
    * kgsl tweaks (should help with graphics) > #cygnus
    * vsync turned off (credits to altwho) > #cygnus

    francoKernel features:
    (built from void sources)
    * TinyRCU > v1
    * A lot of tweaks for the KGSL drivers > v1
    * 4 new governors with values specifically tweaked for this phone: SavagedZen, InteractiveX, Minmax and Scary > v1
    * Smoothass slightly updated and Interactive major rewrite > v1
    * Some battery improvement code > v1
    * CFS tweaks > v1
    * I/O improvements > v1
    * CPU unaligned access for extra performance > v1
    * Kernel compiled with flags specific for this CPU to get the most out of it > v1
    * Readahead values increased to 4096 max 32 min > v1
    * Ashmem, Shmem, lowmemorykiller, binder.c, pmem.c and timed_gpio.c backported from the .35 kernel > v1
    * Framebuffer memory file largely updated from .39 kernel > v1
    * Cleancache added and enabled > v1
    * Optimized RWSEM algorithm > v1
    * Probably more things that I'm still working on > v1
    Follow now the changes on FrancoKernel own thread.

    Old versions:

    * void. #draco
    * void. #andromeda
    * void. #bootes
    * void. #cygnus

    Changelog:

    #andromeda:

    - updated francoKernel to its latest version

    Instructions:

    1. Download the needed or wanted files and copy them to your internal/external sdcard
    2. Reboot to recovery (link) via adb, terminal, key-combo or application like AnReboot.
    3. Wipe (full data, cache, dalvik-cache @advanced).
    4. Choose "install zip from sdcard" and pick void main package, confirm, wait.
    5. Reboot or flash -apps/-etc (I recommend a reboot between each flashing).

    Known issues:

    * So far nothing, I'm waiting for reports. There'll be for sure.


    I hope you enjoy it.

    As soon as CM7 is up and running bugfree or close to it, development for void. will be put on halt.
    Perhaps I'll make a CM7-based ROM with my own tweaks by then.

    Anything else, tweet me.

    Anyway, this is the last version.

    From now on, any updates will only be kernel-wise and by a fellow portuguese, not me.

    I don't know about you guys but I feel like it's a bit buggy.

    Example: When opening hidden apps option from LauncherPro, it's a bit slow and it 'stucks' for a while with black screen before showing the apps.

    Do any of you guys experience any lag when opening apps?

    Sent from Ideos X5

    I've had no lag problems like you mentioned on 2 phones and have been using all day since i put draco on
    even with the build before i had no problems.
    this is by far the best ROM I've tried :)

    nice job with kernel fancis,when u think the new version gonna be up?Cause i want to flash draco again since is the best rom so far (tested miui,nice but need time to be stable)

    Maybe today later at night. Kernel for void, oxygen and miui.
