No problem! I hope you enjoy it. Did you check out the themed recovery :D
Checking it out in a few.

BACK AGAIN: WOW!! Cool recovery! I accidentally hit the icon at the bottom that looks like a computer and got all sorts of mount errors. Panicked and held the power button to reboot.

Anyway....the recovery even has a slide to unlock feature!! Great stuff!

Just tried to reinstall Fluxi just to see how to do it with your recovery.

I made it happen but it was quite different than any recovery I have ever used.

Had to Mount Internal SD card to see my Downloads directory and the kernel cleaning script.

So far I had noticed a good deal more battery drain than Fluxi. I know it hasn't settled in for more than a few hours but I need to be able to use my phone until the end of my work day.

I will probably be back when more development happens. Thank you again!

Yea there are still a few kinks I need to get out with the mounting, tho I havent had any errors and i've been running it a week. Next time that happens. Go to the recovery > Settings > Copy log to SD card and send me the log :D

Let me know how you like it :D
This Kernel is smooth.
Been running it for 2days and I have to say its one of the best I've ran so far.
The Back up and Restore is is way faster then CWM Nanodroid.
I did notice the battery drop 30% when I went into recovery and flashed a zip.
Other then that I havent had any SOD or lock ups. I have notice a slight lag when you try to turn the screen on but nothing more. This can only get better keep up the good work. About time we say Team Win on the i777

Glad to hear you like it. I'll be working on it more to see what I can get working better and do some tweaking for battery and spead. I'm also working on making a TWRP kernel for the international version soon :D

Massive battery drops are customary when popping out and doing heavy flash access. Nothing to worry about

I think that it's worth mentioning that TWRP supports dual storage devices. If you go to the mount page you will see the radio buttons for "use external storage" and "use internal" Whichever you choose is the location that will be used for backup, restore, & zip installation. TWRP will save your preference for the next reboot.
