SlimGen V2.0 PRE-BETA

Get the SlimGen Wallpaper HERE!!!
SlimGen site has been made! Visit regularly for exclusive features! http://www.sethworkz.tk/

What is SlimGen 2.0?
-SlimGen is an Ice Cream Sandwhich based ROM which is focused on being the fastest and slimmest ROM for the LG Optimus One

Why did you create SlimGen ROM?There are many other ROMs for the P500.
-The main reason I created this ROM is because for now(5/03/2012) there is no customized ICS rom for the LG Optimus One.

What do you expect from the community?
-Nothing at all. I made this ROM for myself,but because of the great feedback I got,I thought to release it to the public. The only thing you can do for me,is to donate any amount if you like my work. That's all.

How to install the ROM?
-Flash it like any other ROM. There are plenty tutorials on XDA about this

KNOWN BUGS: READ THESE TO AVOID GETTING IN TROUBLE!!! Updated: 5/07/2012

-Power menu is bugged if you enable POWER SAVER mode. DO NOT ENABLE POWER SAVER MODE or it will instantly reboot your phone when pressing the power button. To fix this, just wipe data and dalvik and reboot. It will fix it and don't mess with the power menu, you can add the screenshot option and airplane mode but nothing else.

-As mentioned above, POWER SAVER mode is bugged, DON'T USE IT!

-When changing from stock ICS Lockscreen to something else, it works, but when changing back to stock lockscreen, it just doesn't show any unlock option.
To fix this if you manage to encounter it, reboot to recovery and wipe data + dalvik and reboot. Lockscreen will be reverted to the original one. Need help in fixing this.

-USB Mass Storage working but sometimes, an annoying bug occurs: Sometimes, even if you press to turn on USB MassSt, it won't turn on, unless you enable or disable USB debugging. Very annoying, but it can be fixed with a reboot. Need help in fixing this.


-Changing LCD density from stock to any other value, will cause the phone app to crash and force close, use it with caution!!!


-Cannot set navigation bar icons to transparent. (Not really necesarry but, it looks cool)


-Navigation bar sometimes overlaps lockscreen text(not big problem...)


-Camcorder and panorama not working

Music listening: works fine both with speaker, wired headphones and Bluetooth headsets.

Phone conversation:
- internal speaker and external speaker: volume is almost the same, so there is almost no difference between them, thus external speaker for conversations is useless.

- Bluetooth: whereas one can listen to music via bluetooth, for regular phone calls the volume is zero. This applies for BT headphones and also car speaker systems.

- 3.5mm jack headphones: conversation works well.
However, there is a huge volume difference between phone call and music, so if listening to music with reasonable volume --> incoming call will have too low volume, if one puts the volume to max in conversation, after phone call ends the music volume will blow the ears

Some other minor issues:

- Battery usage does not show any applications- only the graph

- Disable boot animation doesn't work (yeah, I know, I'm a jerk )

- Choosing a different wallpaper for lockscreen, shows the homescreen wallpaper along the status bar area. It looks weird/ugly, and I guess it is affected by statusbar transparency settings..

-It isn't possible to add transparency settings for the whole notification pull-down, looks like the present settings work only on the status bar itself...

TO DO:
APP2SD - Can move any app to sd card
Custom framework-res.apk
data/app enabled so you can update/uninstall some system apps

Thanks for the mirror, posted in the first post.

Is this really ICS or CM9? The build.prop looks like CM7 :confused:
Great job though! :)
This is really ICS not CM9. Give it a try and you'll not regret :D

It doesn't have any volume problem at all :)
And yes it is needed full wipe. It is coming from similar build, however it has some kernel and system tweaks which need the full wipe.
New version gonna be uploaded on Tuesday!

Hilarious, if I choose to disable boot animation it tells me I'm a jerk... but does not comply with my command :p

What's the swagger button on notification bar?

Speaker volume is quite low during phone calls, and it doesn't seems like I can change volume during call?
