For those uninitiated, Asylum CM10 is a slim, debloated and fast CM10 based Rom. It had its two previous iterations:
the first one (ICS and JB) done by Anti, the second one (JB) by Jack the Ripper. Sadly, both of them petered out for
one reason or another. Asylum CM really grew on me, so I just had to ask Anti for permission to resurrect my first
love, and he said yes.:)

Sreenshots:








What does Asylum CM10 has to offer?

Unnecessary apps are chucked out, thus reducing the Rom size to 119 Mb only.
Everything is blacked out, no official CM10 grey.
Superuser is replaced by SuperSU.
Safe CM10 kernel and recovery with eMMC_CAP_ERASE disabled.
Performance tweaks
UI tweaks
Ad blocking hosts
Default DPI set to 240
Good battery life
Speed and smoothness
CM10 theming compatibility
No multi-widows, sadly

How often will the Rom be updated?

There'll be a new version as soon as there is at least 6-7 CM10 new merges, or if there's only one crucial change.
It could be daily, or every few days.


How do I flash it?

You must be on a safe kernel and recovery. If you are not sure, check this thread out to see which ones are safe!

If coming from previous Asylum Phoenix version:

1. boot into recovery
2. wipe cache and dalvik
3. flash the Rom
4. reboob

There's no need to reflash Gapps.

If coming from any other safe kernel except Philz:

1. reboob to recovery
2. do a full wipe, including your posterior
3. flash the Rom
4. flash Gapps
5. reboob

If coming from a Rom containing PhilZ kernel:

1. flash a CM10 kernel
2. stay in CWMR, go to advanced/reboot recovery
3. factory reset, wipe dalvik
3. flash the Rom
4. flash Gapps
5. reboob

gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip

Removed apps. You have to extract those you need, paste or push them to /system/app,
fix permissions so they are the same as the other apps in the folder and reboob. It is NOT a flashable zip.

What is not working:

Whatever doesn't work in official CM10.

Special thanks goes to:

CM team and Team Hacksung, obviously.
Anti for letting me resurrect his legacy, providing Asylumizer and valuable insights beyond the call of duty
Utacak™ for being there in the moments of dire compiling need
Alcoholic Anonymous, born 1973 ad, for testing and all the roflness
Sasha for being there at all times
Toxic for the beautiful bootanimation
Asylum community for being such wonderful wackos and making this forum an incredibly enjoyable place (especially ze Chermans)



Donations and thanks are always welcome, but not obligatory.:)

Writing just now from this Room, after restoring some essential apps. Very lightweight indeed. Especially when coming from a TW ROM. Had some FC of Google Text to speech at the initial language selection screen.

I love the boot animation :D

A note to all coming from LSA TW leak, and trying to flash from PhilZ latest kernel: If you get error 7, try a different kernel to flash this ROM. Latest LRT worked fine for me.

Cheers, Markus

Edit: Battery is great :thumbup: And WIFI is strong as King Kong :thumbup:

When I tried the latest CM10 build I loved the speed but there was no 1080p playback and the alarm clock kept quitting on me ...

Is this rom free of those issues? And can I just change back to 320 dpi through the build.prop?

1080 playback is OK for me using MX Player and Gallery both. And yes, you can edit build.prop either manually or through Rom Toolbox to switch to 320 DPI. Don't use any other DPI modifying app, it will land you in a bootloop. Don't know about the alarm clock, this Rom is less than a day old.
