INTRODUCTION
Because the poor little Gingerbread man is completely snubbed due to the fever for ICS and JB...
... I decided to "create" my first custom rom ..
I want to clarify: I'm not a DEV and the kitchen is definitely not my world, what I'm proposing is nothing new, the thing that I've done is to pick something from a place and something from another place and put together what for me is best.
So, the big amount of functionalities of Shadow0 and performances/reliability of Gigabread+ ROM (this one based on QKE kernel).
(Obviously before to put "my ROM" here I've asked to kingsonwongs and Texten the permission to do that)
______________________________
Since I've bought my SGS+ I've tested all available ROMS, and in my feelings the best are the two I've named before, I've alternated the use of both for long time, and some weeks ago I decided to try to mix them in way to have the best of both.
I think I've done it or at least I think to be quite near to have done it
... it's up to you to judge

KERNELS
1.Stock tweaked KQI Kernel <--- click to download
This is the Stok kernel of Ginger Revenge ROM, supports custom boot animation, init.d scripts.
It works very fine with good performances level and good battery
2.Feacore Kernel sOCL <--- click to download
This is the Feacore kernel with overclok capability up to 1800 MHz.
It features more governors and schedulers than stock KQI kernel.
I've done a mod so that it's default clock is 1400 MHz instead of 1800, you can set higher or lower frequencies using cpu control apps.
3.BroodKernel 1.3 sOCL <--- click to download
This is the BroodKernel 1.3 with overclok capability up to 1800 MHz.
It features more governors and schedulers than stock KQI kernel, Virtual RAM (SWAP) possible, No JPEG compression (HQ photo's)
I've done a mod so that it's default clock is 1400 MHz instead of 1800, you can set higher or lower frequencies using cpu control apps.
4.SkyHigh Kernel 1.4d <--- click to download
This is the SkyHigh Kernel with overclok capability up to 1800 MHz.
It features more governors and schedulers than stock KQI kernel, Virtual RAM (SWAP) possible, HQ photo's, it contains by default a lot of tweaks like V6 Supercharger, Tunderbolt, Zipalign, Battery and SD Card Improvement etc.
For this reason no tweak scripts ar loaded on init.d folder, because apply tweaks twice can produce strange behaviours, so be careful to load additional (and in some cases unuseful) tweak packs with this kernel!
The main advantage using this kernel is UNDERVOLT capabilities, that permits to improve battery life maintaining a good performances level.
See 3rd post a guide and suggestions to apply good voltage values.
REMOVED APPS PACKAGE
1.Removed Google & Samsung Apps <--- click to download
Removed apps: like Talk, Adilko, animated wallpapers, Samsung apps, etc... (Install package from recovery)
SkyHigh Kernel Voltage tweaks
A good way to improve battery life is to apply some undervolt to CPU.
On stock kernels is not possible to change the voltage, to do this kind of operation is necessary to use modded kernels like SkyHigh or Vitality.
Personally I prefer SkyHigh because there's no issues with SD cards (but if you like you can follow this suggestions also for Vitality).
To set voltages you need to use apps like, IncrediControl, SetCPU, AnTuTu CPU Master, etc... search them on play store
Looking on the following graphic, you can see that SkyHigh kernel does by default (red line) a little undervolt on high clocks compared to stok kernel (black dotted line),
on low clocks the SkyHigh kernel voltage is equal to stock kernel.
My Idea is to try to use more lower voltage values, and based on my esperience using Castagna's Kernel on ICS roms I've seen tha my device works very fine with Extreme UV version.
So I've applied the Castagna's EX-UV voltages values to SkyHigh with absolutely no failures. (See green line).
As you know no all devices are identical, some are more low voltage friendly, some with too low voltages does not boot or not works properly.
So maybe instead to use EX-UV voltages you may try Castagna's standard UV values (blue line) that on high clocks is equal to standard SkyHigh.
Or maybe using intermediate values between SkyHigh defaults and Castagna UV / EX-UV.
Hint: after setting voltages vaules prior to stick them @ boot, do a normal usage of your phone for some hours, play games, run benchmarks to do some kind of stressing, verify that the phone is able to wake-up from deepsleep etc... If in normal usage yor are facing to some problems try use less agressive undervolt values, find right UV values is not easy but I think that playing with values between red and green lines of previous graph can be a good starting point.
Hint2: If you're not a gamer and your primary goal is battery saving, limit the clock to 1.4 GHz if you're using SkyHigh kernel.

good luck
Thanks for your effort
Some screenshots would be good..
looks pretty cool, good work
Good work. Working smooth and battery friendly!
Could you add OTA update next version??

This looks nice, I'll surely try it
Dowload link is disabled now. can anyone upload to another service, please?
another location is in upload, it will be available in about 1 hour.
Hello! I want to test your ROM, but you have a problem with download link:
This account's public links are generating too much traffic and have been temporarily disabled!
My advice: use a torrent link!

Thank you! I will test this ROM for 24 hours, before drawing my conclusions. What do you use for kernel? The stock kernel or an improved one? It have Overclocking?

I've used stock KQI kernel... the only *improvement* is init.d support.
If you want, you can use custom kernels, I suggest witality or Feacore with OC, and why not also Broodkernel 1.3 that support OC also.
____
In any case it seem's (at least to me but maybe I'm wrong) to that stock KQI kernel is a bit better thant stock KQI, specially for how it concern battery consumption.
In fact I'm waiting comments about battery drain from who decided to test my rom.
"stock KQI kernel is a bit better thant stock KQI"..
.. dafuq i just read?? @[email protected]
ops... I mean KQI is better than KQE

With ANIMATIONS ON-> Backlight bug is a KNOWN bug that is NOT FOR ALL...you'll know you have it only TESTING..BUT NOT COMPLAINING ABOUT BUG
KEYBOARDS
Many of you may have different tastes regarding keyboards, so I decided to provide you some alternatives
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25106916/Apps/Keyboard_Froyo_update.zip

Of the 4 keyboards, Motorola and HTC one have Prediction test ALSO ON HW KEYBOARD;
On HTC you have to "tap" on where you want to write before starting typing if you want predicition to work, motorola have ONLY HISPANIC AND ENGLISH DICITONARIES!

I am currently guessing Europe, as it hates connecting to the towers right now.
Thank you very much, I wait this rom for days!
You're the best.
Downloading!
I keep getting stuck at unlocking sim card after wipping all restoring through sbf , rewipping, re-restoring can u help me ? im also using the new gots or i dont know what im doing wrong
Good to see a FroyoMod coming out! Thanks for your hard work ! Is memhack installed?
My gosh you're organized. I'm envious, lol.
Looks fantastic. Good job.
Justed installed...damn quick!! Awesome
One problem
Couldnt unlock SIM! Screen whent off after 10 segs. And asked me every time I turned it on..to put the pin again.
Then I put the SIM in another cellphone, removed pin...and that worked.
Weird.
yeah after some browsing i arrived at the same solution disabling pin in another cellphone i guess it has something to do with the network you´re using and what sim card they use but you should probably fix this, its very annoying
One more thing, while switching to "memory card access"
atcommandservice force closes
but it works fine

Version 1.2 - with out kernel
Updated 6/19/2011
Screenshots, downloads, and changelog in second post!
Why SyndicateROM Frozen?
All of you Epic users who have been around the XDA community for a while probably recognize the SyndicateROM name. The original DI18-based SyndicateROM was one of the fastest, most refined, and most popular ROMs of its time. SyndicateROM Frozen is based on the official EC05 release of Android 2.2.1, and is built from the ground up for speed, stability, and battery life.
What's the secret sauce? Carrier IQ, the infamous Sprint spyware package, has been completely removed! More details in the second post - you won't believe what we found! Themers and other mod developers take note, many modifications were made to the system in order to achieve this exclusive feature.
What's in SyndicateROM Frozen?
SyndicateROM Frozen is:
based on EC05
kernel rooted
deodexed
zip-aligned
PNG-optimized
hand-tweaked from the ground up
designed for EXT4
CWM 3.0.2.5 compatible
Unlike the original, SyndicateROM Frozen comes in only two editions - Standard, and Fully Loaded. Standard is designed to be a combination of the previous Superslim and Standard - a lean, mean, super-fast battery-sipping machine. The developer's choice!
SyndicateROM Standard includes LauncherPro. All Samsung and Sprint bloatware are completely gone!
SyndicateROM Fully Loaded features TouchWiz instead of LauncherPro, and adds in Social Network Sync, Facebook, BuddiesNow, Program Monitor, and the stock live wallpapers. All the rest of the bloat is still gone!
Both versions feature Wireless and Wired Tether preinstalled!
Tweaks and bugfixes in SyndicateROM Frozen and the Twilight Zone kernel include:
any and all lag completely destroyed
Network speeds at their peak - no throttle service, buffers adjusted
3G, 4G, and WiFi are stable
Video recording issues have been resolved
RNDIS no longer conflicts with ADB
1xRTT properly displays, instead of the erroneous 3G icon
The Sprint HTTPPD and RTSP proxies have been completely removed
The 'battery full' popup and sound has been removed
SMS/MMS messages and email have been removed from the call log
A restart button has been added to the shutdown menu
"AM" and "PM" have been removed from the clock
Did we mention Carrier IQ is gone?
Twilight Zone has custom undervolts using Voltage Control
Twilight Zone features optimizations from 2.6.34, and many optimizations for the Cortex A8
Animations correctly smoothed
Transition animation speed automatically set to fast on first boot, completely user-adjustable after
Hardware keyboard response improved with the Impaled Speed Demon Tweak
Loud boot sound removed
Ads in apps and websites blocked
Bluetooth voice dialing fixed
(continued in post below)

Installation Notes - READ THIS! WATCH THIS!
You need CWM 3.1.0.1 already installed. You need a froyo kernel if coming from gb or eclair
If you are not on an EC05 rom or SyndicateROM Frozen 1.0.1/1.0.2/1.1.0/1.1.1: Use Odin to flash the EC05 modem. UNCHECK EVERYTHING EXCEPT "AUTO REBOOT". Ensure you are on CWM3.1.0.1. Wipe data for best results, and flash the ROM.
If you coming from the EC05 OTA (stock): Download the ROM and copy it to your SD card first, then use the CWM3.1.0.1 one-click, wipe data, and flash the ROM.
If you are coming from another EC05 ROM with a working modem: Just flash the ROM with CWM3.1.0.1. If you get any FCs at all, wipe data and reflash.
If you are coming from SyndicateROM Frozen 1.0.1/1.0.2/: Flash the EC05 modem in Odin (UNCHECK EVERYTHING EXCEPT "AUTO REBOOT"), then flash the ROM.
This package will automatically backup and restore your data.

Important Notes
To ROM devs: A clean version of the affected frameworks and other files have been uploaded here. Other than Carrier IQ's removal, the Throttle Service has also been removed, along with the Sprint RTSP and HTTPPD proxies. Aside from those changes they are stock. Note all of the APKs in that package must be given the same signature, along with anything else using android.uid.shared (including TouchWiz, Sns*, and more). If the CIQ removal process causes any unforseen issues, please join us at irc.fossnet.info #acs-users, we'll be happy to help.
To themers: Your themes are still fully compatible with SyndicateROM Frozen! However, you should download the package above, and make sure that if your theme modifies any of the included files, you use the versions from this ROM to prevent FCs in your users' systems.
To theme and users: Do not use themes or mods unless they are designed for EC05 and explicitly compatible with this ROM!
Notes
To get wireless tethering to work:
Go into settings of the Wireless tether app before you start
Change the Device Type to Epic
Then, ensure that you are NOT on 4G
Start the tether
Once connected on 3G, you can turn on 4G, it will work now.
NEVER turn on 4G before you start the tether
If USB doesn't work, reboot.
All themes must become compatiable
Fully Loaded IS coming shortly

Absolution 3.7 *AbsolutionTools is now in Settings!*
For those users that are feeling the need to try out ICS, but don't want to leave Absolution, we have an Alpha build that is available. The caveat being that users are willing to follow a few simple rules.
1. Understand that this is a Alpha release. NO BUG REPORTS! We know some things don't quite work the way we want, or we wouldn't be calling it an Alpha release.
2. Understand that AbsolutionICS is unsupported. It is a work in progress, with most things working.
3. Do NOT ask for any ETA on releases, updates, etc. If we are swamped with these types of requests/comments, we will pull it until a stable release is available to release.
All of that being said, it runs good enough for most of us on the team that have Inspires are running it as a daily driver. Enjoy!

Absolution v3.7 Changelog:
-----------------------

If you downloaded Absolution 3.7 and your GPS status bar icon is goofy Download This and flash from recovery.
*Absolution 3.7 Important Information*
What is what in AbsolutionTools you ask?
1. Custom OC Profiles & Undervolt Settings:
Sloth - Sleep = conservative 122/122 + Wake = ondemand 122/921
flappjaxxx - Sleep = conservative 122/122 + Wake = ondemand 122/1152
rasroy - Sleep = conservative 122/384 + Wake = ondemandX 122/1382
Nun - Sleep = conservative 230/384 + Wake = ondemand 230/1228
Lone Star - Sleep = conservative 122/122 + Wake = ondemandX 230/1305
In the CPU Tab hit your Menu button and you will see CPU Tweak.
CPU Tweak is exactly that, it will allow you to fully customize your Sleep and Wake Governors and Clock Speeds.
*Warning* Do be careful with this as using incorrect settings may have ill effects.
Do not use these setting unless you know what you are doing.
Undervolting:
Lite Undervolt = -25mV
Standard Undervolt = -50mV
Aggressive Undervolt = -75mV
2. GPS Configs are by crypted and they are all version 2.2 except for Worldwide 1.3 which may be better for some than 2.2 that is why I included it. Make sure to be patient if coming from a clean install when trying to get your first lock. It may take quite some time as it downloads assistance data. I don't think I need to say this but you should not be in a house or a building trying to get a lock as this will severely degrade signal.
3. If you are using OC/UV Beater or SetCPU or any other CPU clock/undervolting app, please uninstall it as it will conflict with the current settings you are using if you use custom OC profiles. If you are still using OC/UV Beater You can now Download This Tool and Flash it from recovery. This will completely remove OC/UV Beater and all of the dependent files. This removal tool is also in the OTA> Apps section of AbsolutionTools
4. Undervolting the 5 lowest steps is seriously not recommended on this version of Absolution. Your battery life will be as good as it is going to get. Default frequencies are lower than stock CM7 kernel out of the box. If you insist on using undervolting use the included Absolution Undervolts because so far they are the only amounts of undervolting that are tested and stable.
6. Ad Blocking Apps such as Ad-Away are no longer needed as AbsolutionTools takes care of this now and it uses the same lists as Ad-Away.
7. If you do the One Touch Google Apps Installer from tools YOU MUST Reboot after install or you will in fact get Force Closes. I included the most standard Google Apps to get most users up and running but not all of them. After using the installer Reboot, Open Market and Search Google and it will show you which ones are now installed and which ones aren't.
8. If you are having Compatibility issues with apps in the Market after changing screen resolution in Tools, Go to Homescreen> Settings> Applications> Manage Applications then Find Market and Clear Data then reboot and you should be good to go. If that doesn't work you may need to set your resolution back to stock 240dpi.
9. GPS drops after a couple of minutes on Google navigation. This has been a long time CM7 bug and is not Absolution specific. The only workaround is to pull down your status bar and toggle GPS off then on real quick and you will get a lock that will stay locked for the remainder of your trip.[/B]

Can the op be updated to explain how this front facing camera patch works.

Basically, it tells apps like g+ and gtalk that you have a device with a front facing camera, then uses the camera on the back. I will be happy to update the OP shortly.

There was a file edit added that makes your phone think you have a ffc. So you can now go gtalk, g+hangout, fringe, or any other video chat service. But for people to see you, you'll need to face your rear camera at a mirror or I guess you could watch your screen on the mirror as the camera is facing you. Very neat IMHO!!

CHANGE LOG:
Version 3.1:
Almost all languages.If your language is not listed in Start up wizard then select English from there.Then set your language using More locale 2 from the apps.
Removed v10e Baseband.(Need to flash V10a baseband to go back to CM from here (8MB only). This is Baseband only not full kdz )
Now don't need to change gps.conf for your country.This will work for almost all countries.(Though if you need faster satellite lock then use gps.conf from above link)
SMARTASSV2 is now default governer.(Tweaked for better battery life)
Disabled journalism
Some changes in init.d script.
Updated SuperSU.
Re-added accessibility settings so that people can disable hanging of call by pressing power button.
Some newer libs from the v10H
Some build.props.
Version 3.2:
Added LG Hidden menu.
Better integration of busybox
Changed OOM and lowmemorykiller values
Fixed an issue with Bluetooth which was causing FC on file receive
Removed zipalign and sqlite optimization as they are not needed to run at every boot.Added scripts that will allow user to manually zipalign and sqlite vacuuming.To do so, you'll need terminal emulater.Type su to obtain superuser right then run any command listed below.Run both commands periodically for best performance.
zalignx: It will zipalign all apks on your device.(Running it first time will cause many FCs and will remove icons from the launcher, dont worry just reboot device)
vac: It will optimize all the databases on the device.(credits to zeppelinrox)
Version 3.5:
Various bugs fixed,Performance improved.
Added some stock apps for better compability.Removed LG keyboard,added stock gingerbread keyboard.Some essentials apps added like setcpu,terminal emu....
Redesigned statusbar brightness slider.Now looks better.
Removed silly init.d scripts which were causing delay in booting.Now only some essential scripts are there.
Reverted to stock OOM and lowmemorykiller levels as the previous values were too aggressive for multi tasking.
Now more smoothness in launcher and scrolling.
Added xpaum's kernel as default.For more features of kernel look here.
Fixed battery drain.Thanks to .xxx. for reporting.
Turned off button LED for power saving.See below fore more details.
Sweep2wake is turned off by default.See below fore more details.
Disabled fsync()
Some new commands.(Please type su in terminal before executing any command)
lightson: This will turn on the LED button light.No need to reboot,lights will be turned on on the fly.(although lights will be disabled at every boot)
lightsoff: This will turn off the LED button light on the go.
s2w: This will enable sweep2wake function.(no reboot needed,If you enable s2w then i recommend you to turn LEDs off)
s2woff: Sweep2wake will be turned off on executing this.(no reboot needed,I recommend to turn it off to save battery)
Version 3.6:
Updated various libs and files from v10i
Updated some apps (including Google play as requested by many users)
Added bash and nano (nano will only work in bash.to run it in shell terminfo need to be defined)
Updated xpaum kernel to 0.6
Volume down key will wake up device
Long press back will kill the application (and it will give a notification )
Fixed Bluetooth problem
Better sound while recording video in stock camera app (by Chacha_Ivanov)
Added some widgets from stock ROM
Smarter togglers for sweep2wake,button backlight,GPU OC. Re-written code so that changes in them will stay unchanged even after reboot (for ex. if you'll disable leds then they will remain off even after reboot and vice versa).For smarter toggle,you'll need to execute following codes.Older codes will also work but they'll have temporary effect.and as usual don't forget to gain SU rights (by typing su) before typing any commands.
gpuoc: to toggle GPU Overclock
lights: to toggle softkey lights
toggles2w: to toggle sweep2wake
Decreased time to show up recent applications on long pressing HOME
Version 3.61:
Fixed some critical bugs (also solved problems with wifi and bluetooth hopefully)
Restored LG stock keyboard with all language support
Updated SuperSU
Changed kernel.Now it has modified stock kernel by me.Sorry.Almost all tweaks like faster Auto focus,cache pressure,etc but no sweep2wake and bln support but feel free to flash xpaum's great kernel.Undervolted for better battery life.Use 1200 MHz as max freq. and 386 MHz as min freq as battery drain will same as 245-1024 range due to undervolting.This kernel is still experimental (although i'm using it for 1 month) if you want long lasting battery then stick with it else go for xpaum's kernel.
Version 3.7:
Based on latest v10J firmware
Modified Adreno libs (thanks to andr00ib)
Some new widgets for stock launcher and added some misc files from stock ROM
Latest SuperSU and Google Play Store
Some changes to framework for better performance
Various visual changes to make it more beautiful
Moves bash to bin and set as default
Added CPU settings in settings (actually it'll launch SetCPU.So setcpu is invisible from drawer .If anyone is big fan of setcpu icon then it can be added to desktop via activity short cuts provided in some launchers )
Added Adreno Booster (credits to Spizzy01)
Important note: It is obvious that adreno booster dramatically increases 3d performance but at the cost of huge decrement in Quality.You can notice this in stock gallery app.Also some games lags with adreno booster (like dead trigger) because of texture compression.The only feature of the adreno booster that gives huge increment in performance is forcing to use compressed textures which is implemented via forceAutoTextureCompression=1 in the adreno_config.txt.Compressing of textures makes loading faster but degrades the quality of texture image.Some games lags because CPU takes more time to compress Hi-res textures.So what to choose? Here is what i do.I don't force GPU to compress textures by changing forceAutoTextureCompression=1 to forceAutoTextureCompression=0 in /system/etc/adreno_config.txt. Whenever i play game which lags without compressing,then i changes to forceAutoTextureCompression=1 thanks to qualcomm because this file is loaded whenever you launch 3D application (not sure about this).You can use this for your benefit.Whenever you launch an application which has visual artifacts due to adreno booster then kill that app and change to forceAutoTextureCompression=0 and relaunch it.No reboot is required

Click to collapse
Modified toggles.Now no need to execute su first.(only applicable for lights,gpuoc,toggles2w.Still need to execute su before executing zalignx and vac as those scripts are not mine)
Modified zipalign script for better behaviour.now it'll take some more time so be patience.
New Kernel patched up to 2.6.35.14.For more features read below.
Fixed front camera mount angle for v10J chamber
Restored legacy Android boot animation (actually deleted the custom boot animation ).For a custom boot animation rename bootanimation.zip to bootanimation_vdf.zip or remove ro.product.operator=VDF from the build.prop
Some minor things but i don't remember them
Version 3.71:
Solved connectivity issues in previous release.Changed baseband to v10i.
Ubuntu is now default font
Some performance enhancements
Updated Google Play Store to 4.0.27 because older version was keeping CPU busy hence draining battery and degrading performance
Disabled ascending behavior of Ringtone
Added LG Hidden menu in Settings (caution: use them only if you know what you're about to do).SuperSU is also moved to settings
Removed stock gps.conf and added universal one (changeable from romtoolbox)
Removed Adreno Booster as it was causing hiccups in some apps.It can be flashed manually
Some compability fixes
Added tun.ko
No longer need to execute su before using vac and zalignx
Reverted to Stock animations from LG (i was bored with previous one )
Integrated sysro/sysrw.Execute them to easily mount /system as r/w or r/o
Disabled logger from kernel level to save some more RAM.By default it is enabled.Use romtoolbox to set it.
Now it comes with ROM TOOLBOX (not that one available from market).Execute romtoolbox in terminal.You can do everything (enable/disable LED,S2w,logger etc) within it.Actually i was going to create application for it.But my exams are coming next month.So i'll create an app after it.Till then use this toolbox.
Some other things which i don't remember
Version 3.72:
Fixed GPU OC in romtoolbox
Fixed SuperSU
Kernel:
This ROM will work with every kernel that is compatible with Stock ROM.By default it comes with my own kernel (many many thanks to xpaum).But this kernel is still experimental and lacks of sweep2wake.So i'll advice to flash xpaum's latest kernel.Some features of default kernel
Compiled with latest (4.7.3) linaro.
Various optimizations including o3 flags
Better Wifi connectivity (by andr00ib)
Patched upto 2.6.35.14 (from CAF)
Highly undervolted. CPU will use same voltage on 1024 and 1200 and 245 and 368.So same drain on both freqs.So default frequency for this kernel is 1200-368
OC up to 2 GHz (by andr00ib)
ext4 tweaks,cleancache support
built logger as module
Link to HarshGinger Stock kernel ( fully tweaked,linaro 4.7.3)
Link to untouched,pure stock kernel ( not a single tweak,a pure "LG" experience, compiled with latest linaro 4.8.1 )
Source for this kernel is located on my Github (branch dev for e730 and dev_e739 for e739)
THEMES:
ICS THEME
Minimalistic Status bar by Toreton
ICS Statusbar and Settings by NemesisQ3A
Change Lock Screen Wallpaper
Accessories:
Transition animation pack by InfusionNSK (Just some cool animations.Not flashable.Unzip it first.It has flashable zip files)
Beats Audio (Modified by me because AROMA installer don't work good wit our device.Thanks to ...Awesome...)
Xperia S launcher with widgets by ra3al
NOTE:Flash this ROM at your own Risk i'm not responsible for any damage to your Device.
I recommands a third party Keyboard because stock is RAM hogger.I've not added all tweaks (like tcp buffers etc) to keep ROm clean.You can install 3g turbocharger and supercharger to supercharge your device.
And sorry for my bad English
For more support => Follow on Cyanogenmod forum
Thank you for your work. I have flashed your rom on my lg sol but after that i cant start up my phone. the lg logo come but after that nothing happend. and with power button + volume down i cant go to the recovery menu. what should i do ?
OK...
Remove battery then insert it again.Now follow this method
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-c15Y_m_oqc
Then in the recovery wipe data/factory reset, then go to advance and wipe dalvik cache and wipe battery stat then reinstall the rom and reboot.Wait for atleast 10 minutes because first boot take a long time.

After *#06* , it came only IMEI but no numbers. Have you got a idea what could i do ?
Are you on CM7 or CM9??
If yes then flash this via recovery Download
Thank you mr.harsh you are the best !!! I searched yesterday a long time for a solution. Thank you again and a good healthy life my friend !

It's partially translated.Change language using morelocal 2.
ok, I've installed ROM with ICS theme and I like it (morelocale 2 is ok for romanian language)
congratulations for achievement.
one thing it seems to me, that consuming the battery a little faster than the previous ROM (JB taste).
thanks

Try to disable gpu overclock and sweep2wake (by init.d) and set the voltage like this (use incredicontrol app to undervolt):
clock volt
122 750 mA
245 750 mA
368 750 mA
768 850 mA
806 850 mA
1024 1050 mA
1200 1050 mA
1401 1150 mA
1612 1200 mA
1708 1250 mA
1804 1300 mA
after that, set smartass2, sio and cpu step range form 122Mhz (or 245..same mA, so same battery loss) to 1200Mhz (same voltage of 1000).
With these settings I did at least 60h (2,5 days) with medium gaming/phoning/surfing usage.
My wifi is always turned I just use timeriffic to automatically switch on aero mode from 00:00pm to 07:00am.
I use also setcpu profiling, so when I'm in call I set the max clock to 768Mhz, idem when the screen is off.
p.s. if someone can reach better results please tell my how!

are you sure it is stable?
never tried undervolt more than 100mv...
Well, I used since 20days these voltages, in particular in the 122-1200Mhz range...no problem to swith from 750mV to 1050mV; I reached this settings after many assays.
Have you any more infos about these voltages problems?

yeah found some FC on higher freqs,so increased 25mv to 768,864,1024...still testing
Hi there!
This is a very nice ROM! Thanks for your time and effort!
The only thing I miss is the LGOnScreenPhone.. Is there any way to have this option? I have the stock .apk and .odex file but I don't know how to deodex for the E730 (I only found a tutorial for the GS2). I saw the On Screen Phone settings are there in the Wireless&Networks settings. Is there a way to make it work? I need it cause at work I have very weak signal and have to leave the phone at a specific place to have adequate reception.
Thanks so much once again. =)

INTRODUCTION
This ROM was made for fun and to have a GB ROM with a GS4 look (or at least more or less, some enhacements will come in future...)
It is based on the latest official Samsung Firmware I9001XXKQP
I've used Vitality kernel cause it allows undervolting in way to save battery with a good level of performace.
About SD card mount issues, I've noticed no problems during the two weeks of "development", so I hope you are lucky as me.
On Vitality Kernel I've done some changes on memory management because "Springfield Tapped Out" was laggy as hell and i had frequently FC.
Anyway original Vitality Kernel and stock KQP kernel are available on 2nd post.

ADDONS - FIXES - UPDATES
APP PACKS
None for the moment
KERNELS
1.Stock tweaked KQP Kernel <--- click to download
This is the Samsung stock kernel of KQP firmware, supports custom boot animation, init.d scripts.
It works very fine with good performances level and good battery
2.Original Vitality Kernel <--- click to download
This is the original Vitality kernel with overclok capability up to 1800 MHz.
It features more governors and schedulers than stock KQP kernel, Virtual RAM (SWAP) possible, it contains by default a lot of tweaks for increased overall system performances.
For this reason no tweak scripts ar loaded on init.d folder, because apply tweaks twice can produce strange behaviours, so be careful to load additional (and in some cases unuseful) tweak packs with this kernel!
The main advantage using this kernel is UNDERVOLT capabilities, that permits to improve battery life maintaining a good performances level.
About SD Card: sometime depending on device it may happens that SD card does not mount. This is a known issue of this kernel, do a look on Vitality tread for solutions
3.Modded Vitality Kernel <--- click to download
This is the modded Vitality kernel I've used un the ROM, I've done some changes on memory management to improve stability on some situations.
All features of original Vitality kernel are still present except (part of) V6 SuperCharger memory management.
REMOVED APPS PACKAGE
1.KQP removed apps <--- click to download
Removed apps: like Talk, Adilko, animated wallpapers, Samsung apps, etc... (Install package from recovery)
Vitality Kernel Voltage tweaks
A good way to improve battery life is to apply some undervolt to CPU.
On stock kernels is not possible to change the voltage, to do this kind of operation is necessary to use modded kernels like Vitality or SkyHigh.
To set voltages you need to use apps like, IncrediControl, SetCPU, AnTuTu CPU Master, etc... search them on play store
Looking on the following graphic, you can see that Vitality kernel does by default (red line) a undervolt compared to stok kernel (black dotted line),
My Idea is to try to use more lower voltage values, and based on my esperience using Castagna's Kernel on ICS and JB roms I've seen tha my device works very fine with Extreme UV version.
So I've applied the Castagna's EX-UV voltages values to Vitality with absolutely no failures. (See green line).
(I've had no failures also lowering voltages by 25/50 mV, see orange line)
As you know no all devices are identical, some are more low voltage friendly, some with too low voltages does not boot or not works properly.
So maybe instead to use EX-UV voltages you may try Castagna's standard UV values (blue line) that on high clocks is similar to standard Vitality.
Or maybe using intermediate values between Vitality defaults and Castagna UV / EX-UV.
Hint: after setting voltages vaules prior to stick them @ boot, do a normal usage of your phone for some hours, play games, run benchmarks to do some kind of stressing, verify that the phone is able to wake-up from deepsleep etc... If in normal usage yor are facing to some problems try use less agressive undervolt values, find right UV values is not easy but I think that playing with values between red and green lines of previous graph can be a good starting point.

Enable RAM SWAP feature
All credits are for defiant07
Do a look to this thread to thank him and for more information about SWAPITON script.
The RAM SWAP permits to have more free memory, that is useful to enhance performances on heavy app (specially games).
The trick is to force the phone to use a part of SD card memory as RAM. (More info about that are available using search button and google).
To do SWAP is need a kernel that features this option, like Vitality, Skyhigh and Brood Kernel.
How to check is SWAP is enabled
open terminal emulator and type:
Code:
free
the interface will show something like this:
The line corresponding to "Mem" voice indicates the RAM of the system total, used and free
The line corresponding to "Swap" voice indicates the size of swap memory: total, used and free, in this case the three "0" mean that Swap is disabled.
When Swap is enabled you should see something like this:
The line corresponding to "Swap" voice indicates the size of swap memory: total, used and free, in this case there's about 178 MB of extra free RAM.
How to enable SWAP
open terminal emulator and type:
Code:
su -c swapit
Now a semi-automated script will run, follow the instructions that are displayed on the screen and go to the end of process.
At the first usage the script will suggest to you a correct amount of "extra ram" to enable (in my case was 178 mb)
It will ask you a % of swappiness, set it with a value = 60 to no degrade too much foreground apps and multitasking, set it higher i you want to maximize performances for hard games.
It will ask you also how to set memory management, you have 3 options
- Similar to V6 Supercharger
- Similar to Kickass Kernelyzer
- A mid way of above options
(personally I'm running on Kickass option)
It will ask you where to place SWAP file, my suggestion is to select external SD, is slower, but because SWAP causes intense read/write operations the lifespan of the SD card could be compromised, so IMHO is better to burn a few $ esternal SD instead of the internal SD memory.
How to change SWAP parameters
When enabled, you can disable it open terminal emulator and typing:
Code:
su -c swapitoff
To re-enable it open terminal emulator and type:
Code:
su -c swapiton
To change swappiness level open terminal emulator and type:
Code:
su -c swapXX
where "XX" should be 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100
MORE info and options are available on the original trhread of the script, do a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2359182
gb still has the best performance because it is best optimized for our phone . thank you for keeping it alive .
maybe key lime pie will work better for us , but untill then gb has the upper hand .
Sent from my GT-I9001 using xda app-developers app
Just can't believe that you're back with GS4 - GB ROM for us...thanks yea ~:good::good:
yaaayyyyy u r back....
downloading this ASAP.... awesome man.... GB is the best
Awesome ROM! I can finally play six-guns without any problem.
The rom is awesome, and the best looking GB rom out of all.... Gaming performance is good too.... played temple run OZ almost without lag... more games like Subway Surfers playing good..... the only thing bothering me is the sound is kinda low... if don't know if its my ear problem .
Can u tell me how to increase sound by modding the file, i don't want any app to do it for me.
Also if possible.... to create a big mem edition for the modded kernel u used for this rom....
loving ur rom BTW....
EDIT : Also, does this kernel has the same UV settings as shown in the above graph or do i have to do it manually... ?
Wow
best of both ics style and gingerbread feel!
I've tried a lot of rom. But the most beautiful interface 2.3.6. Was when the call screen, the alarm screen is very nice.
This rom excellent. Very quickly, the interface is beautiful. Using the battery at least.
Please continue to develop. :good:

The kernel by default have the voltages of the red line.
If you want go lower do you have to set manually using incredicontrol.

yeah would be good if we have a big mem kernel .... bcoz like 400 mb RAM available will be a big boost for GB .... and also can you port S4 apps like music player and gallery ...

make a bigmem kernel requires to mod the sources of kernel and I'm no able to do that. Sorry.
But if you want more memory you can do swap (use some tools searching on the market) or you can use Skyhigh 1.5 bigmem edition.

You can use the triple-swap i use.Take them from my rom, in /etc/init.d/.
Those are /system , /data and /cache swaps, so no danger of removing sdcard.Also, it's faster.
I have set them to take 75 mb from system , 75 from cache ( i think ) and 100 from /data.
If you use them, give proper credits to their creators, delta-roh and harbir.
Hope this helps!
@c0dac0da , porting S4 apps to GB is not possible, as they use different api levels.

umh... your method does not works...
we can do swap following this guidee: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2359182

Maybe you can include things from those ROM's ? I saw s3 Music Player and S4 Launcher.
Perfect ROM. But for this time some small problems.
1. I am missing SG4 weather widget.
2. When installing missing apps zip then I have some FCs at some of the apps like google +
Thanks for your job.
Today was a problem.
mxplayer could not watch the video on the Internet. first try with this rom. previous 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 mx player working.
stock gpu drivers may be because it is.
How do I update with 8150 gpu drivers?
I want to stay in this rom. Please help me.
