[ROM] Penguin-0.3_JBa3_zeuba (re-packaged apps based on Zeuba's CM10 alpha3 JB ROM)

[powerpenguin]

Hi there,

I have been using a re-packaged version of Zeubea's excellent alpha3 ROM (different apps which optimise space for my specific use case) for 2 weeks now, and I'm still very impressed with the performance: extremely smooth and quite stable!

The only issues I've been having are the following:

1. battery life: less than I used to have with CM7.2 and CPU Tuner. Though increased battery life seems to have been mainly due to CPU Tuner. This app doesn't seem to play well with this ROM (or JB?) however (I experienced random reboots/freezes, didn't experiment much afterwards) so stopped using CPU Tuner
2. issue with "Traveler by Flightstats": the screen layout is messed up so the app is useless. This may be a general JB (or dpi?) issue though.
3. sometimes random reboot while using GPS Tracker (but not specific to this ROM, I also had this on CM7.2)

Ok, I don't mean to hijack the ROM, but maybe somebody is interested in this re-packaging, so I post it here.
Features:

1. based on Zeubea's alpha 3
2. 1.5M free on /system
3. more than 50M free on /data (no exact measurement since I have already a lot of stuff on data)
4. app choice aims to be suitable for effective PIM and NAV usage
5. replaced Trebuchet by Apex which AFAICS is functionally very similar but much smaller
6. replaced gallery, calendar, messaging, mail by better (imho) equivalents (justpictures, bizcal, Handcent, K9)
7. replaced IME by excellent TouchPal IME
8. market (or play store as they want to call it) replaced by patched version which doesn't do the retarded auto-update to eat our remaining data space without our consent
9. integrates workarounds for issues (i.e. a wifi timeout, camera/video illusion, realcalc) (and therefore deleted stock camera and calculator to save space)
10. (Titanium Backup not integrated because it didn't recognise my Pro-key when TB was integrated)

Big thanks to:

• Zeubea for this excellent port
• dsixda for the kitchen
• tommytomatoe for dexo (even though I couldn't odex this ROM since the script crashed on the framework)
• Tsjoklat for his Vending patch that disables the retarded auto-update behaviour
• The Cyanogenmod Team
• all the devs that make such high quality free apps (see apps above)

Enjoy

Many thanks. I'll give it a try. Can you add md5 for your package as well?

MD5 added in OP.

Will it work without unlocking my legend?

Most likely not, it's subject to the same technical low level limitations as Zeuba's original ROM

zeubea not "Zeuba"
Good work with repackaging. I have an issue with status bar though - it dissapeared on upgrade. Also the background is black when I apply wallpapers nothing changes.
md5 seems to be correct, I'll try to flash it once again later.

Oops My apologies to Zeubea. I changed it where possible (except filenames)

I couldn't reproduce this, it might help to wipe data if the problem persists?
