OUT OF DATE Tsugi Version 2012-1-4 (a 2.3.4 "Stock" Based ROM)
FINAL

OUT OF DATE I RECOMMEND USING THE OTA INSTEAD
OUT OF DATE I RECOMMEND USING THE OTA INSTEAD
THREAD CLOSED, NOTHING NEW TO SEE HERE
---------
This is the FINAL release of Tsugi. There are just too many bugs with the G2X regardless of which Rom a person is using to deal with. I have spent 80% of my time tracking down issues that are due to LG's code and firmware.
If someone wants to take Tsugi and fix any existing issues, they may feel free to do so. I'm not picky, as long as credit is given for the work that I did.
THIS IS BASED ON LG CODE. AS SUCH, THERE ARE A FEW KNOWN ISSUES THAT CANNOT OR HAVE NOT YET BEEN RESOLVED. DO NOT POST ANY ISSUES UNLESS YOU HAVE READ POST #2 IN ITS ENTIRETY.
---------
LATEST NEWS 1-8-12
This, 1-4, is the FINAL release of Tsugi.
Fixed in this release is the signing issue that was causing Market purchases to fail. Also returning is Google Backup Transport.
NOTE: This Rom is Carrier-IQ FREE!
There are a number of addons that can be flashed after running the full install or the update. Not only can you flash to the P990 (LG) Camera, you can now restore the stock Android Music (instead of Google Music), set touchkey lights to be less bright, overclock and undervolt, or just overclock without undervolting for more stability. All of this and more AT POST NUMBER THREE.
Bloater is included in the Rom. If you select G2X (Lotherius) from the Bloater menu, you can add/remove a large number of items from the Rom, including T-Mobile bloat.

Features Overview

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- KNOWN ISSUE --
If you are unable to make market purchases after updating to 1-4, you might have to do a wipe and clean install to get it working, since the issue is related to the Setup Wizard.
Other issues can be found here in here in post #2.
DOWNLOAD
1-4 DOWNLOAD: Download Tsugi-2012-1-4-1653 (SmartInstaller)
No longer need separate wipe/no-wipe installer, as this one figures it all out on its own! If you need to wipe the Kernel, grab the G2X Scrubber in post #3. (Themes and system addons may need to be reflashed)
NOTE!!! Any themes will need to be updated to 12-31 Compatibility or Settings will crash when using LG Keyboard!

These all reside here in post #3.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. BACK UP EVERYTHING JUST IN CASE!
2. Flash in CWM.
3. Enjoy.
4. Now, flash any addons (including updates, mods, apps, kernels) from post #3.

FAQ / KNOWN ISSUES / TROUBLESHOOTING
READ THIS BEFORE POSTING THAT SOMETHING DOES NOT WORK AS EXPECTED!
I didn't want to put this at the top, but I guess I have to.
IF YOU ARE USING ONE OF THE ADDON OVERCLOCKING KERNELS YOU ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR PHONE MAY BECOME UNSTABLE, CRASH, REBOOT, OR TAKE OVER THE GALAXY AS OUR NEW ANDROID OVERLORD.
It may look like there are MORE known issues with this Rom than there are with others. I don't believe there are. The difference is, I'm open and honest about every flaw I know of, whether I think it is due to the quality of my own work, or is a pre-existing issue with the LG firmware or even hardware. You shouldn't have to "just know" about certain problems. So I'm very clear about any known issues. Many of these issues exist in other LG Roms as well, they just are not documented.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- TIPS --
If you have any problems installing the Rom, wipe the system completely by flashing G2XScrubber from Post #3 and then flash the Rom again. This applies especially if coming from any other 2.3.4 Rom other than Tsugi (Such as Jboxer's Roms) since they have a different kernel than I use.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- DOWNLOADER TRICKS--
1: I flashed this Rom and it won't boot/bootloops/loads but everything is messed up!
Make sure you actually downloaded the correct file. Only the CORE DOWNLOAD is a full Rom. You may not, cannot, and will regret, if you use an Updater on any other Rom. If you are still having trouble flashing, use the G2XScrubber from post #3 first. It will format your system, cache and data partitions pre-wipe to make sure there are no leftovers from an older Rom.
2: I flashed the Rom, and now my themes are gone!
By "No-Wipe" in this case, it *does* wipe the /system/ partition which is where your themes and boot animations are loaded. Your data partition, however, is safe. You will need to reinstall any themes or SYSTEM Add-Ons that you installed in CWM or with Root access.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- BROKEN STUFF --
1: I get reboots when mounting/unmounting my SD Card.
This appears to be an issue in the underlying LG code which I have not found the cause for at this time. It does not affect all users, so it may have to do with individual SD Cards. If you are having this problem, try formatting both your internal and external SD Cards. I don't know if that will fix it, though, as I personally don't have the problem.
2: I get a SOD or Crash while using Bluetooth.
Again, it appears to be an underlying LG Issue. I've made a little progress, but still haven't solved the issue.
3: My phone randomly reboots.
Appears that there may still be some LG issues with that. My phone doesn't do it, but some do. If you're using the Under Volted kernel, then try the Stock Voltage one. Hope for a bug-free ICS release. See Broken Stuff #1 also. Use the stock kernel if all else fails.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- KNOWN ISSUES --
1: A popup says "radio was denied root permissions" when I boot my phone!!!!
Run the Toggle2G app. Approve root permissions. If you don't want the Toggle2G app, you can remove it using Bloater, which is pre-installed. You didn't uninstall Bloater, did you?
2: The Reboot and Recovery options are missing.
These 2 items have been temporarily removed from the Power Menu until I can further troubleshoot issues people were having getting the phone to actually, you know, shut off. For now, use the included 2XReboot app if you need to easily reboot into recovery. But really, with Rom Manager updates now, you shouldn't need to!
3: I got a force close from the Media process on first bootup!
This is due to a corrupt file or thumbnail on your memory card. It will only happen on the first bootup, but if it really bugs you you'll have to remove the corrupt file from your memory card. Most of the time it's a thumbnail. This bug also exists on stock LG Roms, it isn't a Tsugi issue.
4: I flashed Faux123 or DragonG2X or some other kernel and it doesn't work right! Y U NO MAKE IT WORK?
Actually... ..... download Oyasumi - the 2.3.4 overclocking Kernel from Post #3 - and you'll be all set. Oyasumi is essentially Faux123 1.3 recompiled and packed with init scripts for 2.3.4. So you should expect the same performance - and issues - of Faux123 v1.3. That said, I cannot and will not troubleshoot crash/freeze/reboot/SOD issues with any kernel other than the one that comes in the core ROM.
5: I don't want WiFi Calling.
Then delete /system/app/kineto.apk with root explorer. If you do you're going to get force closes immediately, but just pull battery and restart, and it will all be good. There is some debate over whether or not the libraries that support it use battery. I don't think they do, but Kineto.apk sure does. Soon you'll be able to remove it using the Bloater app.
6: My GPS is screwy. Again.
Lol, so is mine. But seriously, folks... This includes the best GPS fix I could find and it works for me and many others. It's still not where I'd say I'm "pleased" with it, but it has gotten me out of pinches. That said, it is tuned for the central USA. If you are in Europe or Uzbekistan or Atlantis, then you might need to redo your gps.conf with some local servers. That's something the factory normally does for you when it targets the market to sell a phone to.
7: I don't like the boot animation.
Instead of messaging me privately with your feelings about how the boot animation threatens your masculinity, learn to change it yourself. For those who don't feel threatened by it, it's actually a reference to a character named Kyuube from the anime Madoka Magica. And, once you get to know the character, he's the anti-cute.
---------------
What? Your issue isn't one of those above? Congratulations, you might have a reason to gripe/complain/compliment! Go for it!
Tsugi Addons & Packs
A collection of PACKS AND ADDONS for Tsugi 2.3.4. Some of these may work on other Roms, but they are specifically designed to work on the L95G 2.3.4 leak upon which Tsugi is based, and specifically on Tsugi itself.
G2X Scrubber
The G2X Scrubber is designed to format your system, data and cache partitions. It will also take them back to ext3 after having had them as ext4 partitions, so you can use an ext3 kernel. If you want to revert to the STOCK kernel on Tsugi after using Oyasumi, this is required. It is also useful to ensure a FULL WIPE with no traces of the old left behind. WARNING: THIS WILL WIPE YER PHONE. It won't be bootable after run this script, UNTIL you Flash a New Rom. Instructions: 1. Flash G2X Scrubber in CWM. 2. Flash ANY Rom of Your Choice.
Download: NO DOWNLOAD LINK THANKS TO UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT
Stock Apps & Bloat
Stock (AOSP) Camera - NO DOWNLOAD LINK THANKS TO UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT - Restore fully functioning but less pretty camera.
P990 (LG) Camera Update -NO DOWNLOAD LINK THANKS TO UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT - Reverts FFC fixes to Fix Rear Cam Video. *sigh* Or just to restore P990 (LG) Camera after using Stock (AOSP) Camera.
Stock Music - NO DOWNLOAD LINK THANKS TO UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT- Restores Stock Android Music Player (with DTS)
Bonus Items
LG 2X Keyboard - Now bundled with Tsugi Installer.
Dimmer Touch Buttons - NO DOWNLOAD LINK THANKS TO UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT - Adds a small script to turn down Touch Button brightness on bootup.
Kernels
Even though I provide these kernels matched to this ROM, I cannot and will not troubleshoot any freeze/crash/SOD issues due to these being known issues with the underlying kernel and I am not actually a kernel dev
That said, if you have issues running at any speed on the Undervolted Kernel, then use the Stock Voltage Kernel as it should prove more reliable.
Oyasumi 0.1 SV -NO DOWNLOAD LINK THANKS TO UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT - (Stock Voltage - Max 1408, Based on Faux123 1.3)
Oyasumi 0.1 UV -NO DOWNLOAD LINK THANKS TO UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT - (Undervolted - Max 1550, Based on Faux123 1.3)
Themes
Theme #1: COLD - By Lotherius - Download -- Screenshots -- Updated 12-31
This theme gives you a bright status bar, notification pulldown and popups. Shadows are chilled, and those warm oranges all over have been frozen to a cold blue. Even the normal black backgrounds in Android have taken on a slight chill. What you can't see in the screenshots is that nearly all of the framework & SystemUI effects have been recolored to have the blues. Not only the overscroll, but radio buttons, checkboxes, pressed item highlights, etc. (note: Wallpaper in the screenshots is available in the Wallpaper Gallery already). Download updated to V2 with fixes for bluetooth crashing and updater-script issue that may have prevented it actually working.
Theme #2: Colorized Androidian - By bmann_420 -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1374860 -- Screenshots in post.
Theme #3: Original Tsugi Theme -- Download -- The original theme from Tsugi 12-7 and older. Settings.apk still has color because I didn't feel like making a separate Settings file, and some fixes were made in the settings. But the rest of the theme is from the older Tsugi.
Can you added the modded version of the scrollable quick panel like the one on Weapons Rom? if its possible?
Glad to see one more rom. Is this going to change baseband and that stock g2x 2.3.3 installed? If things doesn't work out can i go back to my cm7 an be happy?

Flashing roms does not effect your baseband.
Nandroid backup, just like you should be doing before flashing anything. =)
Ill give it a shot for sure. The main reason I like changing kernels is for battery life. If this works out in that respect, that would be sweet. Especially if the lg cam works
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I am in on this one. Just unpacking but a couple of early comments.
Can you default or bloat pack the LG camera. The stock camera is very bad, and using a custom ROM should improve. Anyone wanting a standard camera can easily download the Camera 360 or what not for free....the LG camera is unique to the phone.
Seem the notifications now are a bright light faint baby blue, which is absolutely fine, not like a deep blue on black, so remove my previous request for change of color.
You were talking about Weapon under the hood changes for twlauncher, I presume if I choose I can install the twlauncher without problems here?
already missing the wallpaper choice you had for Baka
off to try camera install and twlauncher now.

I've had great luck with the battery. You can still use a screen off profile with an app like Pimp my CPU, you just can't OC or UV.
And, I just flashed LG Cam 3.0, and it worked as perfectly as ever... which is to say, if you don't mind a wonkey FFC.. ... Maybe I'll tackle THAT project next since flak0 got ran off the g2x forum ...

1) Well, the problem with the LG Cam is it messes with the front-facing cam for those who use it, so it's pretty broken in that respect. Downloading a 3rd party camera doesn't fix that.
2) I like the new color too.
3) I didn't make the under the hood changes weapon has for TW, so it will probably not work.
4) You can get the wallpapers by flashing the recommended bloat from BakaG2X... it should flash fine.
And... I just noticed something I left in that I was using for myself.... the script that dims the touch key lights.... If that bothers anyone, I'll post a patch for it tomorrow. It's at the end of one of the init scripts - I got tired of using an app to do it.
EDIT:
In addition to the old walls, I plan on including some variation of the attached image in the next build, probably as a boot screen if I can manage to animate it somehow.
Nice, Looking forward to the boot animation
I haven't tried any of the 2.3.4 leaks, are they relativity stable? Meh, doesn't matter anyway, I'll give this a shot.
Had an issue with Keyboard settings option FC when I try to go into it.
flashed twice... no vibrate... few other FC when navigating in settings...

Honestly, they're more stable than 2.3.3 in my experience with it so far... though it could just be being forced to use a stock kernel that gives that illusion.... no 1550mhz overheats.

very... strange... I have full vibration and haven't had a single FC in settings. Can you clarify if you wiped in recovery (though I think this ROM normally wipes on its own), and what you were doing when you had issues in settings?
lotherius said:
As previous comment said, I don't want to just copypasta everything from Weapon. Also, I did take a look at Weapon to see how he did things internally... there are a lot of changes in Weapon you don't see up front. They were required most likely to get Touchwiz working, but still a lot more than most people realize. Since I don't need/want TW, then no need/want to do all that editing
This will not change your baseband. The device the 2.3.4 was leaked from is identical to the G2X in every way, so it is as if this ROM were built for the G2X. You'll be able to flash this as easily as any G2X rom and leave as easily as any G2X Rom.. the only thing you can't do is use custom kernels while you're on this ROM since we don't have 2.3.4 kernel source.
ICS animations are in the ROM already ... though I'm not happy with the speed of the "short" animations, they run faster on LG than on other devices I've seen. I may tweak the speed a bit more. Also keep in mind it's the 2.3 launcher, so the launcher itself doesn't do the same animation as the rest of the rom.
If it turns out I don't get a new job soon I might try my hand at a sliding panel. But, no guarantee as it's a lot of work... and the only reason I've been so productive right now is I'm between jobs...

Spare part tge animatuons maybe?

I've cleared davlik and cache when installing the wrong and having the same issues. Only FC in keyboard though.
Are you in any particular app when the keyboard gave you trouble? I am trying it out again right now and haven't had a single force close. But if others are having the same problem then maybe there is an incompatibility i have just missed. I can pull it from the rom if it turns out to be unreliable .
Edit: I missed where you said settings.. again, it has been fine for me . Maybe i should reflash and make sure nothing got messed up in the final archive.. Not jappy with tje accuracg anf correctjon on this keyboard anywau. Maube someone will come out wiyh a real ICS keyboard that isnt crippled soon.

First things first, this is a work-in-progress guys. I know there are multiple things that need to be modified, improved, added, or fixed, and I'm hard at work trying to get to all of them.
Buoyancy is based off the latest UCLA3 update, which seems to be performing faster than the previous firmware in terms of both data and regular speed.

How The Release System Will Work
As of right now I've decided to go with the 3 digit release system. This is how it will work. The first digit of the release, e.g. the 1 in buoyancy 1.0.0, represents the overall version of Buoyancy. Any changes made to this will be very major. The second digit represents the stable build number of that version. Any changes made to this will be made carefully, but will probably not be earth-shattering. Finally, the third digit is for builds that may be unstable but have new features I may add to the next stable release. I'll try to update the third digit every 3-4 days. The other digits will be updated when I feel the stability of the rom has increased.
Theming
Want to theme Buoyancy? Go here to edit the ROM options to your liking. Remember, if you create a super-awesome theme, be sure to send it my way so I can post it and take all the cred-- I mean let the community use it.
Porting
The following is my current progress on porting the Buoyancy to this Potato. I'm expecting great success; I'm fairly certain Potatoes float.
Code:
Variants: Mashed, Sweet, Russet, Mr. Potato Head.
Radio: If you stick some antennas into it that might work.
Power Source: Self-Sustainable
Storage: 2 bits: One peel, one inside.
Multitouch: Two fingers needed for proper peeling.
Drivers: As far as I know, potatoes make terrible drivers. Mostly due to the lack of current arm/hand/finger hierarchy support.
GPU: General Potato Unit. Capable of recreating images of Jesus on the skin.
Some Comments/Disclaimers/FAQ's/Important Things (Please Read)
Personal Thoughts: This is only my second rom I've published (the first on the cappy), but I must say that I'm pretty happy with the way it's turning out.
AT&T vs. Rogers: For 1.1.0+ I have decided to merge the two builds into one. If anyone on Roger's experiences problems with the new builds, please let me know.
Bravia Engine: While I did include the Bravia Engine port into this mod, it's difficult to test whether or not it is actually there besides just subjective screen observation. However, you need to trust me on this, it does help with video playback and picture quality.
Extended Power Menu: Added.
Swype: Woot, woot, working Swype!.
SOD: Not an issue! Plus, OC has returned!
Throttling: If you do end up getting throttled, I have confirmed that this method does in fact work with both versions of Buoyancy.
GPS Fix: I Would include the GPS fix, but it always seems to tell me I'm in Nevada. This would be okay if I was a resident of the Silver State, but unfortunately I'm not.
Kernels: As of right now I feel that Faux's kernel provides a good balance of speed and stability, and I'll probably be sticking to it for builds in the near future. However, if Da_g does in fact come out with an update to fix the SOD, then I'll return back to his, simply because it is wicked-fast.
OMG VIRUS WHEN DOWNLOAD HAXXXXXXX: Not to worry, I'm not actually trying to give you a trojan, I promise. The same notification people have been having when they attempt to download Buoyancy has happened to a lot of friends of mine when they try to download rooty things like SuperOneClick or a ROM. My best guess is that it has to do with Superuser privileges+an overactive anti-virus system. If you want to read more, go here
Yahoo Finance Force Closings: If you perform the "fix permissions" option in cwm this issue should resolve.
BLN For MMS: Alright, alright, I know that BLN is not currently working with the stock MMS.apk right now, but the problem is, the MMS.apk that BLN does work for FC's upon entering its settings. So please be patient while I try to work out one of these kinks.
Announcements (Also In Red Because It's Important)
Currently testing PDroid.
May try the new ICS Camera.apk that's been floating around recently.
Still working on that BLN Text Messaging
Current ICS Launcher is a Lil' Glitchy. You have been warned.
Yes, I'm sorry, 1.3.1 is a full-wipe version. But I have my reasons. For one, this is going to be the last build of Buoyancy for a little while since I'm going to try and focus my attention on ICS. The other is that I kept getting bootloops with a non-wipe version, which angered me into submission.
Updating to UCLA base in 1.4.0.

Buoyancy is based off Bonestocketeer, created by playin4sheezy. Major thanks to him and all his hard work. Note:This ROM will wipe your data automatically, so no need to do it through cwm. However, it won't hurt if you do. Future non-major releases of Buoyancy will be updates and not require a data wipe.

Some Comments/Disclaimers
Personal Thoughts: This is my second rom I've created (the first on the cappy), and I've only actually had the Skyrocket for about two weeks, but I must say that I'm pretty happy with the way this first build turned out.
AT&T vs. Rogers: The only real differences between the two builds is the kernel and the radio... I'm fairly sure the AT&T version can run on Roger's and vice versa.
CRT Animation: There is a CRT Animation Mod out there in the forums right now, but for some reason it does not play well with the BoneStock base. If anyone could isolate the files in the framework-res.apk that are modified so I wouldn't have to tear through every inch of it, I'd be much obliged.
Extended Power Menu: I thought about adding this, but I figured with the 14-toggle mod, it wasn't really needed. As a side-note, with the 14-toggle mod, if you hit reboot it will give you options to reboot into recovery and download as well.
Please note that you are flashing this at your own risk, and I am in no way responsible for bricked phones, bricked cats, bricked bricks, or anything in between that may result from the flashing of this rom. This is a beta. Please be careful, but do enjoy.

Ah thank god, I've been tearing through the framework-res.apk for the past 2 hours or so trying to find the modified file. You sir, are a great person, and I'll be sure to credit you when Buoyancy 1.0b2 rolls around.
NP , for future reference, the file you need to modify is (must decompile first, apktool) res/values/bools.xml and with notepad++ find "animatescreenlights" and change true to false than save and close and compile, glad to know i helped

When it comes to the Launcher, I like HTC Sense, when it comes to Touch wiz, I don't like the Dock. I like the app drawer in the middle...I love Google's stock.
There's launcher2.apk for you from my CM7 source (stock GB launcher). It has speed tweaks to make the app drawer open quicker. push to system/app with root explorer, than make permissions match other apks, oh and OP feel free to use this in your ROM

To be included in 1.0b3, although maybe minus the speed tweak .
Thanks for the update! Much appreciated work, my friend. More people need to know about this ROM
Sent From My SGS2 SR Running NeXuSM0Di727-v1.05 @ 1.72GHz
Great ROM! I like the battery icon very much. And the launcher, but over all a great ROM. But i did see one weird thing, and I think you just forgot but the build.prop still says 1.0.0 when it's 1.1.0 xD I just installed and very nice! Just gotta test battery life. But I love it.
The absolute one thing that could make this ROM the best would be a nice theme, and as I read your working on that as we speak. It's just amazing what you dev's can come up with. So, from me and everyone else using dev ROM's, Thanks.
Also, a special thanks to M0D1441, he has helped me personally a lot and he really is a great guy. So hit that Thanks button for both of them! And check out M0D's ROM too, great also. I just prefer a more theme'd look and anti-stock as possible, but I love M0D's black/trans drop down bar.
Two great dev's. That's all I have to say for now. Just keep doing what your doing
P.S. If anyone needs a tester, I'm here. It's the least I can do for all the hard work you guys put into these ROM's.

Yeah, this was my bad, I was pretty tired when I finally finished building 1.1.0, and I figured that 1.1.1 would be arriving shortly (which it is), so I just left it as is. Thanks for the great reply though, it was very nice.
cool looking boot screen, so booting as I type, will report back later after a day or so
after just a few minutes, I find I neede to insall MoreLocale2, so I could get English U.S
after first boot it was a little choppy, but it seems is getting faster and faster
So, for now seems solid and stable for day to day usage
I have a question I'd like to pose... What do you guys think of the addition of Apps2SD in the next build? Good idea, bad idea, and maybe some reasons why. I could really use some feedback on this one.
First off nice theme I've been trying a few out seeing which one will help my battery as I've had some issues, since this is a Rogers theme hopefully it will help me out. One thing I've noticed and I don't know if you did this on purpose but on my lockscreen my battery is all random letters. Doesn't really bother me but just throwing it out there. Looking forward to your update, I'd really like to see the 14 notification toggle and volume keys to wake and I also like the battery

Hmmm... I'm not sure if these things are a Roger's issue because I have 14-toggle mod working fine on my AT&T variant. However, a new version will be out today that includes Faux's new kernel, so perhaps that will fix some of the issues.
Hi Guys, I'm looking for a nice clean fast rom with a stock kernal that will allow me to watch sky go.
The only pre-requisite is that it should have the volume wake tweak as my power button is broken.
For months I have been loving the plethora of roms to choose from, with miui my favourite, but now I'm having difficulty with the fact there are so many

If you've been around for so long, you surely know which way to go right?
If you want a stock kernel, you've left yourself with only Sense ROMs to choose from... and you can try any of the pre-rooted Sense ROMs available (look in the INDEX - or my signature). The volume wake addition is simply a matter of replacing the android.policy.jar file on your phone with one modded for the volume wake patch (Use search and you'll find it somewhere on this forum) - easily done with a file manager with root access....
Also, apparently you don't really need root to get volume wake up.... see this post by @fox2delta : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22903125&postcount=4 who uses a combination of golocker+golauncherEX+widgetlocker to get the same thing.
Happy hunting!

Oh i didn't know that existed :/. In addition it's less than a month old...
You may see through my threads history that i've been asking around about adding new lines many times ever since November last year, and thus have been working at it ever since.
This is a coincidence, i can prove my work and the investigations i did will be published as proof of good will.
Anyway i've just read the thread and unlike him i can do this to ANY Mms.apk.
I only see him proposing a solution for CM9.
Right know i have modded the Mms.apks from:
-CM7
-CM9
-Stock Motorola ROMs are coming soon
...And the list will continue growing.
Indeed this is a coincidence, i'm sorry for that, but yet again, i'm not simply proposing the same thing, i'm doing more apps.

May I have your attention here please! Just some news/announcements
There seems to be a bug for some people after installing Mod Pack II X 0.7, which causes Caller ID to not work for some. There is a solution, and all it involves is deleting your contacts. Of course, many of you probably wouldn't want to do that, but you may back them up beforehand (such as with Google Contacts Sync), delete them off your device, then restore them. Sorry for any inconveniences caused, but I don't see what could be causing this bug and the fix is so simple (and debugging in smali is HELL) that I'm not going to look into fixing it. Just take the workaround, which I got from @daver18qc:

Syncronise your contacts with a Google account (make sure they are sync'd) then delete all contacts and re-download them from your Google account and everything will be fine.

MOD PACK II X
As the name implies, Mod Pack II X is a series of mods packaged together for the Samsung Galaxy Ace II X (GT-S7560M). The purpose of the mods is to enhance several aspects of usability (such as performance, visual interface, et cetera) while maintaining a seemingly stock ROM, in terms of stability. There are going to be dozens of incremental updates, that will include new modifications (and or fixes for any mods that may have been done incorrectly). To install any version of the Mod Pack II X, just download the .zip file and install it with your preferred custom recovery. The only requirements are that you be on stock ROM, and that your ROM is deodexed. Below is the information that will change for each update.
Table of Contents:
General info - Post 1
Changelog - Post 2

Other little things that I can't seem to remember, either because I have memory-issues or because there are just so many things
Better aligned and transitioned AOSP lockscreen clock
Send some screenshots this way please. Some community effort required.
If you notice any bugs, please feel free to report them here. If you'd like to request a mod, post it here and I'll see if I can get it done.
If you don't like Mod Pack II X, and you wish to revert to stock, flash this zip in recovery to remove and replace Mod Pack II X modded files with unmodified ones.

Fun facts and more
Starting at version 0.6, each release will have codename - a letter in the Greek alphabet that corresponds to the release number. Ex. Version 0.6 is called Zeta because Zeta is the 6th letter of the Greek alphabet.
I chose the Greek alphabet for codenaming because I love Greek yogurt.
Mod Pack II X was a spontaneous idea. I never would've imagined myself doing all sorts of mods last year. It was supposed to be a one time thing, but it was popular, so I continued modding and releasing Mod Packs.
I'm a 12 year old. Seriously. I've found an online home away from home (even though I mostly use the internet while home) called XDA. I'm really grateful I turned out the way I am, because I love helping people in anyway I can.
Just one suggestion, add your phone model to thread's title. So newbies won't flash this and blame you.

Please don't post here if you're going to say negative things about the phone when you probably don't even have it. And actually, the phone is pretty decent. Yes, the Ace 2 may be better (we have an enhanced Adreno 200 as our GPU) but I would have bought the Ace 2 if it were available in Canada. With overclock and numerous mods applied, I was able to get a better benchmark than the Galaxy S. Considering my phone isn't the best phone, I think it's still pretty good. Once us owners of the Ace II X start building some ROMs (I'm actually working on AOSP ICS), performance issues will be swept away. It's all caused by Touchwiz. If you're interested in researching our device a bit more, you can look for Galaxy S Duos specs because it is identical to my Ace II X other than the dual sim comparability.

Are you running a deodexed ROM? What firmware build version are you running? I'm sure that the cause of your FC is on your fault. I have tested v0.6 numerous times.

Hi there. I have a Galaxy Trend s7560 and i found this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2343108. Do you think it will brick my device if i flash it? Everywhere i look, i see the S7562 and S7560 are the same, the only difference being the dual-sim property. Thanks in advance.

First of all, why are you posting this here? This thread is for MOD PACK II X ONLY. Please refrain from posting unrelated comments here in the future. Instead, post in the regular Ace II X discussion thread here. It certainly wouldn't (or shouldn't) brick your device, but RIL may not work properly since that ROM is designed for the dual sim counterpart of our models. You'd also probably get some annoying messages popping up about the second sim card not being detected (because there is no second sim slot on the Trend/Ace II X). If you're up to it, you could ask Mohitash to help you port the ROM for your specific device (based off of Trend firmware, and thus based off of "single sim" files).

Ok, i'm sorry that i posted here. And thanks for the response.
Can someone post screenshot of the MOD PACK, because I want to know how it looks before installing it. And to I need to reflash through Odin to uninstall this mod?

Oh, sorry. I'll post some screenshots after school tomorrow. I'll also throw together an uninstallation package. I apologize for the inconvenience.
