veehexx · Mar 24, 2012

am i right in thinking this is an ultra lightweight ROM? it certainly seems to be, based off your feature list.
i'm wondering if this could be a replacement for the Oxygen series...

well i wouldn't say that it needs a minimum system partition of 129 mb the rom it self is 128.04 i am hoping to get it smaller yet so i can support oxygen r2 hboot hopefully by my next release

desireMofo · Mar 26, 2012

will give this a go, thanks

ryanraven · Mar 26, 2012

Well first thanks for considering the rom and I would recommend a full wipe but u might be ok to just wipe cache and flash also try the alpha kernel I have tweaked 3d and quadrant is showing a good boost on my desire the kernel is stable but compcach is not working yet and if u flash a kernel be sure to wipe your battery status and also if you could send me a private message and tell me what u would like to see done with the camera I would appreciate it

marius.a · Mar 27, 2012

weeei, new dev and new rom... welcome and thank you for sharing,

as a flash maniac...downloading and i will install asap.

my only question: does mp4 HD videos are working? i will flash it anyway... but just curios

---------- Post added at 11:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 AM ----------

does this work on 4ext recovery?

it looks like it doesn't finish installing...

EDIT:
ok, i found the problem is here: "-Answer when promted". it's not made it for 4ext (doesn't contain 4ext syntax)...hmm... i recover my bk...until an update

installed (errors appears in 4ext when install and you don't know when installation is finished and need to remove batt and power on)

all my app's goes to internal instead ext4.

EDIT:

EDITE 2:

ERRORS in yes no binary is do to hack so just ignore these, apps2sd will appear to install apps internally if you look in file manager but they are actually installed to sdext they are just simlinked to avoid problems with Google play, I have fixed 4ext recovery install and tested it with the latest 4ext touch recovery workin but freezes if not upto date, all links fixed.
