RoyalGinger is built and compiled from CM7 source code with lots of the CM7 extras and other assorted bloatery removed + a custom kernel & numerous tweaks and optimizations added in. It's sleak, it's mean, and it's fast.

=====================
Release Name: RoyalGinger
Release Version: v3.0
Base Firmware: 2.3.4
Kernel Verison: ckisgen-AOSP-smartass v2.0.1 Kernel
=====================
I always recommend a full wipe (data and both caches) before flashing this ROM!!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED/READ ME:
1) In Spare Parts - Set Window & Transition animations to 'Fast' or 'OFF' .. this will greatly speed up switching between apps, etc.
2) TURN OFF live wallpapers if you experience any sorts of odd/unexpected behavior
3) If you are using setCPU - try uninstalling that (and rebooting) if you have out of the norm issues .. this app seems to cause some weirdness with a small fraction of users device
=====================
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS / RoyalGinger v3.0
- Download the ROM and throw it on the root (main folder) of your SD card
- Boot into recovery
- Wipe data
- Wipe cache partition
- Wipe dalvik cache (under advanced)
- Install from zip / choose zip from SD card / flash it!!
- (optionally) You can let the phone settle for 1-2 mins on initial boot up. IF you are using setCPU, I strongly recommend a fresh reboot and a 1-2 minute settle before auto detecting clock speeds. (see below for more details) I

Enjoy your wings
HAPPY FLASHING!!
((IF YOU RUN/USE setCPU : now you can open setCPU, press the menu button, select 'Device Selection', press 'Autodetect Speeds / Recommended' .. hit the OK prompts ... there's like one or two ..set your min/max clock speeds and governor and press 'set on boot' (I use the default smart ass gov, 1.1gHz max 245hz min ... this seems to be the best balance of performance and battery...AGAIN, MAKE SURE set on boot ISN'T ENABLED/CHECKED IN ROYALGINGER SETTINGS -> PERFORMANCE -> CPU SETTINGS))
=====================
This should be common knowledge by now but if you want to report an issue make sure you have a log cat also you should be running a log cat on every first boot. If you dont have ADB set up on your computer follow this very easy guide to set it up. It truly only takes a few minutes. Also, see HERE for addt'l instructions on how to get a logcat. Alternately, there is a handy app available free on the market called 'alogcat' which doesn't require ADB and does all the lifting for you
