OK guys ... pressing update on OP :D

don't have a full changelog .. this ones gonna take me a good chunk of time tonight to put it all together. the updates are MASSIVE .. a lot of under the hood stuff but plenty all around. you'll feel the difference to say the least.

major highlights off the top of my head:

RoyalGinger v2.0:

- entire ROM completely rebuilt and compiled from scratch using latest 2.3.4 CM7 source code. i don't just take in all of the updates/code/commits willy nilly. i check them all out and cherry pick the ones i want .. test some out, decide whether or not to keep them in, etc. (more on that later)

- bundled with my first kernel build :D ckisgen-smartass-CM7-v1.0 . this is compiled using a base of zinx's latest CM7 stock kernel but i've added in the smartass governor (with a little inspiration from dumbfuqs source code, thanks df!) and then tweaked a couple of addt'l settings. i've bumped the default max clock to 1.1ghz. this kernel will overclock to 1.8ghz. i've got LOTS of plans for this in the future. i'm going to be working hard on it. i went with something like this for maximum compatibility with this latest 2.3.4 and all the changes that it's brought about. I def gotta give a big THANKS to FauxMoney for the colorful late night conversations and inspiration to make my own kernel...thanks man.

- FULLY working google Talk with video and audio working BOTH ways (ok maybe not 100% .. switching to rear camera FC's but we're working on that..still really solid)

- moved most of the 'extra' CM apps and a couple of others to user storage so that they can be easily removed using the traditional uninstall method via the manage applications menu (settings/applications). i call this one the "E-Z AOSP-ify" update. the apps are:

* terminal
* xda
* DSP manager (this is the new one with the EQ presets .. very nice)
* FM
* ROM Manager
* Spare Parts
* stk
* Swype
* Torch
* YouTube

- TONS and TONS of other stuff .. optimizations everywhere .. GPS, radio, data, ETC!!!!!


(if you like my work, please don't forget your thanks buttons)
Amazing work! The ROM runs like a dream and I for one appreciate all of the time and effort that you put into this ROM. You stayed up for hours upon hours to make sure that this ROM screams quality and it does just that. Thank you so much chef CK! Incredible work as always.

BTW, thank you optmsprim for the boot animation. Sick!!!

Do we have to wipe data? it sucks having to set my phone up all over again
always check the OP err'body :D

i keep that thing updated for a reason

and ya this one especially .. with the new kernel, 2.3.4 (which has a new file system of sorts), etc. - it's worth it ...


.. just use titanium. i've got the market auto restoring apps working again. those darn new gapps have been screwing a lot of people on that.

(i posted detailed instructions a few pages back about how to setup labels/filters to automate the whole process via titanium. this GREATLY reduces the time and headache of resetting everything back up. trust me, i often get to do it multiple times every day! it doesn't have to be painful)

or you could not and take 3 times as long troubleshooting an issue than it would have taken restore apps and stuff via TI Backup. :D

great boot animation! thanks ck and team.

why does the kernel version say "dirty" in it? ;)
lol, i wondered who was gonna say something about that first. git tags that to the back of the name when you pull down source code from a certain branch, make some modifications to the code, and then don't commit the changes. it doesn't really mean anything. it's not like i have a github at this point for the brand new kernel so i wasn't real worried about committing my code changes, resyncing, etc.

i started to give you a sweet story about how the kernel failed an STD test but it was on some meds and it was gonna be cleared up in a few days .. but honestly, i'm just out of energy!

PHEW
