[ROM][DISCONTINUED] RubiX Ginger 4.2 for Sidekick 4G (T-Mobile) [Updated on 05/11/12]

JiN1337 · May 2, 2012

Well, I'm going to be helping out with GG from now on. I'm leaving behind GhostBlaze in favor of a new start from a more stable base. I've already spoken to Adjust/Reviewers for permission and I'm good to start!

The OP keeps getting edited for clarity and links, but a change-log would be helpful!

JiN1337 · May 2, 2012

This is the changelog for 3.2 :

Init.d tweaks, tons more have been added.
/xbin folder has had sqlite3 added to it.

Stay tuned!

I've used GG before, but now that I'm actually seeing progress from Rev and JiN, I'm gonna flash this when I get home. And yes I'm going to just keep calling you Revolution, that's what your name was when you were devving for us before, and personally I like that name more than the ones you've changed to.

Good job guys. Keep it up.

Is there anyway to change the color from green? to lets say a blue like GOV2 or the regular ROM

I saw this got ignored so i wanted to repost.. Or is it possible to add a theme like scarlet's leftovers to it?

ultraprimeomega · May 2, 2012

please give a warning about the voice while first boot, im at school and everyone turns around to look. I like my flashing in silence, but so far i like the rom. cant wait for more updates

JonathanBarca10 · May 2, 2012

Not ignored, I'm going to try to learn how. But I'm not confident with that yet.

BTW, didn't know there was an Android voice, didn't make any sounds for me.

Please ignore the fact the .zip file says beta, it's out of beta now.

I would need to look closer, but I believe the status bar icons are one of the easiest things to change, and can be done with the UOT Kitchen, and maybe even with the app Metamorph, or one like that. it is definitely do-able, and I can look later as well.

thanks for pushing out versions so quickly. it's nice to see work being done for this great little device.

JiN1337 · May 3, 2012

Guys, 3.4 BETA should be stable. I just need feedback, and that's why I named it a BETA. The sooner people give me feedback about this version, if they notice any performance gains, or app crashes, I can fix it, and move into a final and then a 3.5 release. Help us, help you. I'm one of the few last devs, not many other devs either have the phone anymore, or are too busy to support it. I manage to make time, so make some time as well to test it! The more feedback, the better!

It didn't originally come with one. I realized I also needed it, so I added it in 3.4 BETA, try it out.

*Read the changelog for 3.4 BETA as well

yogi2010 · May 3, 2012

I have 3.4 Beta on my backup device, and first impression is: pretty freakin' fast! the launcher is insanely fast when scrolling and opening the app drawer. the ROM also seems stable, tho I haven't done a whole lot with it yet. great job!

Come on bro, update your updater-script,

I attached it to this post, helps me figure out whether or not I'm flashing the wrong rom.
Good job by the way.
