Info:
I decided to skip broodROM ICS since JB is working as good as ICS. First of all I want to tell that I won't be using stages such as ALPHA, BETA, RC, Final. I will call the version Release, followed by a number, this third release (Release 3) is now available for download.
I kept it simple so far, added some hooks into the Settings menu, added OC Kernel (compiled with christopher toolchain with o3 optimization), init.d management by broodParts, I made it so that the app applies the setting directly and adds it to init.d as well.
Features:
- Based on Android v4.1.2 AOSP and CM10
- Rooted / Deodexed (duh).
- Powered by broodKernel v3.3 OCUV (Christopher branch / toolchain)
- Custom boot animation
- Customized Launcher2, 3 homscreens, no search bar, changed default layout. awesome wallpaper by ytok

Compiling broodROM Jellybean
Info: Building broodROM Jellybean yourself is extremely easy. in fact I made this automated shell script which makes everything even easier then it initially is.
The skill required for building it is really low, anyone can attempt if interested. You need a native linux installation though, (Or you use DevDistro, my linux mint based VMWARE VM that has everything you need)
In broodROM Jellybean I have chosen for my personal preferences in adding the desired content to the rom, the modifications may spread from /device to /vendor and /build. So performing the regular tasks as on a CM environment may screw up the whole ROM. You can look through my commits if you want to find out where all the thing are placed.
Note:
Since the sources are being changed all the time you might have different outputs, like at the moment its already called Release 4 but its still lacking the changes. for stable builds just download one of the builds I posted
Guide
Step 1: Preparing your environment
I suggest either to use a dual boot installation (if you have windows installed) or use a VM (for example DevDistro), compiling a ROM with Cygwin would be the biggest joke on earth. and the most desperate one.
Anyways since Xistance already made a tutorial on how to build CM10 I'm not going to explain that all. you just need to follow his tutorial until the "Install repo" step and then stop.
Step 2: Downloading broodROM Jellybean
In your native linux session, open a terminal window and enter the following commands:
Make dir and change the directory to that dir
Code:
mkdir ~/broodROM
cd ~/broodROM
Initialize the broodROM manifest
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/broodplank/android -b jellybean
Download the source:
Code:
repo sync
(if you want to make sure you will get no github timeout errors you should not use the -j option, I found out that using -j8 for example even with a 60mbs connection will give github timeout errors. Those errors are very annoying since you will have to restart the progress again and again until it's finally completed (with loads of errors...)
Step 3: Initialize, Build, Pack, Sign:
Because of the nifty shell script I made this process is as easy as starting the file and coming back after a several hours and its ready to flash in cwm. (at my current pc it takes about 2 hours for the total process)
First have a look in the build.sh file. because there are some options you can adjust.
build.sh config part:
Code:
# ---------------------------------------------------------
#
# Main Configuration
#
MAKEPARAM="" # Example: MAKEPARAM="-k"
JOBS=5 # CPU Cores + 1 (also hyperthreading)
INCLUDERECOVERY=1 # Includes recovery.img in zip (0/1)
#
# Odin Configuration
# All files besides system.img, boot.img, reovery.img and cache.img
# should be placed in build/broodrom/odin to be included if 1 (below)
#
BUILDODIN=1 # If 1, an odin package will be created
# If 0, all options below will be ignored
ODINADDMODEM=0 # Add amss.mbn (modem) to odin package
ODINADDBOOT=0 # Add adsp.mbn, dbl.mbn, osbl.mbn (bootloader)
ODINADDPARAM=0 # Add EMMCBOOT.MBN and partition.bin
#
# ---------------------------------------------------------
Info on vars:
Make Parameters (MAKEPARAM)
The parameters that can be given to the make command, this could be "-k" or "LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS:=optional" for example, it's your choice what to add. generally you don't need any parameter for it to complete the compiling, it builds 100% with "make"
Number of simultaneous jobs (JOBS)
This is the number of max jobs that your pc should do while compiling the rom, the recommended number is the count of your cpu cores + 1, which would make -j5 for a quad core without I7 Hyperthreading (with its -j9). On cpu's such as octa cores you may even pump this up higher. I think -j9 for an octa core is kinda below its max (I would use -j12 probably)
Include broodRecovery to the CWM package (INCLUDERECOVERY)
This includes the built broodRecovery with a 2.6 kernel so it's also safe for emmc brickable chip. It just adds it to the cwm zip and uses a different updater-script to match the changes.
Build an Odin package after creating a CWM zip (BUILDODIN)
This builds an Odin image from the output files in the ariesve dir, this is system.img, boot.img, recovery.img and the created cache.img (100mb empty cache)
Adds a modem to your Odin package (ODINADDMODEM)
This adds amss.mbn to the odin package, the file needs to be placed inside build/broodrom/odin and the value needs to be set to 1 in order to include it.
Adds the bootloader to your Odin package (ODINADDBOOT)
This adds adsp.mbn, dbl.mbn and osbl.mbn to the odin package, the files needs to be placed inside build/broodrom/odin and the value needs to be set to 1 in order to include it.
Adds the param partitions to your Odin package (ODINADDPARAM)
This adds EMMCBOOT.MBN and partition.bin to the odin package, the files needs to be placed inside build/broodrom/odin and the value needs to be set to 1 in order to include it.
[/b]Starting the script[/b]
After editing it for your personal needs just open the shell and enter this oneliner:
Code:
./build.sh
When you leave it it will create a fully working CWM zip and/or Odin package!
That's it!. Please do not distribute your broodROM Jellybean build anywhere else then this topic.

broodROM RC4 FAQ
Q: I kinda like Apple, and I don't want an android pissing on an apple as bootlogo
A: Well.. this is only a custom boot logo, you can easily change it by reflashing the SkyHigh v1.4 Kernel
Q: I want to install a system accelerator like Thunderbolt or Adrenaline shot
A: Don't do that! The SkyHigh v1.4 kernel already includes an integrated Thunderbolt, adding more tweaks would simply bootloop your phone
Q: I saw the screenstate_scaling script in /system/etc/init.d, what's up with that?
A: screenstate_scaling is an addition to Thunderbolt, in this script the default awake & sleep governors are set, this script can function as an alternative to CPU Master. You will notice that CPU Master will give you a warning each time you boot your phone since the screenstate_scaling script will interfere with it.
Q: I noticed that you have set the sleep governor to ondemand, why is that?
A: I did that because I've experienced some alarm clock fails on 100Mhz, Of course you can try it out yourself, it might work just fine
Q: I want a better battery life for your rom! How can I achieve that?
A: You can perform the following steps to gain a better battery life: first thing is to lower the CPU Frequency, the default is 1.8GHz, but you can set it to 1.4Ghz (or so) with Antutu CPU Master. The second thing is that you can set the sleep governor to "powersafe" (can be found in screenstate_scaling script) this sets the phone in an even lower state and safes you battery (see the question above for the possible risks)
Q: I want to change my kernel, how do i do that?
A: I recommend you to not change your kernel since Skyhigh gives the best performance for broodROM RC4. Although you can download an alternative kernel and place it on your /sdcard, then reboot in recovery using the extended power menu and choose install zip from sdcard > install zip from internal sdcard > choose the zip file > install > reboot.
Q: My browser FC's all the time, how do I fix this?
A: Some people experience browser FC's, you can easily solve this by installing the broodROM_RC4_InetFixes.zip in recovery mode, don't forget to mount /system to be sure it installs correctly.
Q: My WiFi has constant drops, how do I solve this problem?
A: The first thing that you need to investigate is your "DHCP Lease Time" you can find this option in your router, if it's set to a low number please change it (mine is 604800). If this doesn't solve the problem you can try installing the KQ1 Modem using Odin (select AriesVE.ops from broodrom rc4 and choose the .md5 file as "Phone" package) and install the KQ1 Wifi Binaries using Recovery mode (also don't forget to mount /system) If you still encounter WiFi problems you will have to wait until the ICS Value pack release so i can permantely fix it.
Q: I saw the "Module Loader" app. what is this? and what can it do for me?
A: The module loader app is an app that allows you to run additional modules for your i9001. You can load several modules, I added the tun.ko module which is OpenVPN, the cifs.ko module which is Samba Shares Support (smb://) and the PPP Modules. If you are sure you will never use any of those you can delete the app by deleting "moduleloader.apk" file in /system/app
Q: I noticed that there are some bugs regarding the ICS Theme, some apps have gingerbread looks
A: You can solve this problem by downloading the newest ICS Theme and extract "framework-res.apk" and "twframework-res.apk" from the archive, then copy them from your sdcard to /system/framework and overwrite the current files, set the permissions to RW-R-R and reboot.
Q: I want to change the bootanimation, how can I do that?
A: I've chosen to keep the sanim.zip layout instead of bootanimation.zip which is default for SkyHigh v1.4. So you can place your bootanimation (named sanim.zip) in /system/media, set permissions to RW-R-R and reboot
Q: Is your Configurator BETA 4 compatible with broodROM RC4?
A: Yes and no, you cannot flash themes or mods, but you can use things such as changing boot animation, changing dns, updating hosts and so on (all things that include theme files are not compatible with broodROM RC4)
Q: I cannot buy apps from the store. how can i solve this?
A: Wipe the play store cache by going to settings > Applications > Manage apps > All > Play store > clear cache (thanks to nail16)
If this doesn't work, download an older version of the market here and delete /system/app/Google_Play_3.5.1.5.apk then place the market apk in /system/app and reboot (set permissions to RW-R-R) The market will now automatically update to the latest version.
Q: I cannot change the background of my lockscreen, why is that? I want to change it!
A: The lockscreen from KQ7 is a beta and does not support custom wallpapers yet. Although you can change the lockscreen by looking in the framework-res.apk file with Winrar, look for "framework-res.apk\res\drawable-hdpi" then you will find the "zzzzzzzz_default_lockscreenw.jpg" file at the bottom, You can replace that file by dragging your custom 480x800 lockscreen in there. set the compression level to "store" and put the framework-res.apk file on your /sdcard, copy it to /system/framework and overwrite the file. Don't forget to set the permissions to RW-R-R
(this also seems to work on the default way of changing the lockscreen background )
Q: I get random reboots, help?
A: Because all i9001 devices are not actually exactly the same, some devices could cause errors when using a support OC/UV kernels, you can flash the SkyHigh v1.3 kernel or Feacore 1.4 NonOC to prevent this problem.
Q: I have sdcard fails, how can I solve this?
A: the developer of the SkyHigh kernel is currently working on a fix, you can read about it here
Q: Where can I get additional information about the kernel?
A: You can find it in the SkyHigh Kernel Thread

Added BETA 3 changelog for so far
i discovered an app called adaway (which i currently have problems with) which uses 3 other sources besides yours.
i think one is enough but adding the other three wouldn't do any harm.
you can find them by downloading the app yourself. too much to type...
edit:
and i just got another thought:
if you want your configurator to be noob friendly then you probably should make something like little descriptions on what is what. i think a mouseover should do it.

HOWTO:
#############
1. Enable swap(extra virtual memory) file - mini HOWTO
1. Create 512MB hidden file for swap(all steps on phone - adb or Terminal emulator, as Root):
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/sdcard/.swap bs=1024 count=524288
2. Make swap file system
Code:
mkswap /mnt/sdcard/.swap
3. Switch on swap file:
Code:
swapon /mnt/sdcard/.swap
4. Check that swap is on:
Code:
free -m
5. Add to /system/etc/fstab - DON'T sure that will works but you can try - BACKUP FIRST!!!:
Code:
/mnt/sdcard/.swap swap swap defaults 0 0
You need kernel with swap memory enabled, my kernel have this option on, Arco's and Vitaliy i'm not sure, you have to check it out because i'm using only my kernel.
If point 6 will works you will have permanent swap on if not only till next reboot. It is only experiment and only for swap file. If somebody would like to have swap partition have to creat swap partition on EXT sdcard and make different row in fstab.
If you have swap file on your internal memory you can do trick like that:
1. Creat file:
Code:
/system/etc/init.d/97swapfile
2. Paste this inside:
Code:
#!/system/xbin/sh
swapon /mnt/sdcard/.swap
3. Check after reboot that swap is working, in terminal emulator:
Code:
free -m
As you can see system is using SWAP:
Code:
[email protected]:/ # free -m

What do you mean under 'I can not unlock the screen' ? If you press the power button, the display will light and a padlock and swipe that padlock to right. Or if it doesn't works, than your port is not working I think. But good to see new ports!! Keep up the good work, because more ports mean more possibility to choose from. (Is camera working in your port?)

The system starts up, it shows the unlockscreen or start the configurator, but does not respond to touch. This is the first compilation so it can still be a lot of errors.
for touchscreen we need another kernel
it's a known issue, also on other devices with unofficial ports

No there is no needed to collect boottests from Arco, I should find out what is going on without those boottests . I will need only logcats if somebody is installing this rom.

I've experienced similar issue in CM9, the reason was auto brightness. Look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25211093#post25211093
touchscreen is working, but it will break by trying to unlock..
so i think there is realy no need for the boottest.zip's of arco..
only need to improve that
edit: maybe framework. but i will make a logcat now.
Great to see another developer, good luck!

There is an option to unlock by the menu key. Try to add that by default if you can't open settings(not sure which file this is in so can't help you there) and see if you can unlock the phone that way.

Firstly, I just want to say that this is not my creation, I take no credit, and I'm posting pretty much what it says on the original thread right here. If you wanna thank the devloper (Androguide.fr), follow the link below. I'm posting here so more i9003 aka Galaxy SL owners can take a look.
Original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32660318
UPDATE!! I'll post update changlogs here, if you dont feel like going to the original thread.
v2.1.2
- Fixed conflicting tweaks that caused bootloops and/or were breaking network on some devices
~ Please report if these kind of issues persist ~
- Made the package lighter by removing some unused left-over files from previous versions
v2.1.1
- Fixed missing chmod script which was preventing init.d scripts from running
- Possible fix for the apps that aren't installed properly on some devices
v2.1
Introducing a new tweaks selection screen : Pimp my Kernel
--> Tweak 6 of the most common CPU Governors : Ondemand//OndemandX//Interactive//SmartassV2//Lulzactive//Conservative
--> Tweak your default I/O Scheduler & Disable I/O Stats
--> Disable & Re-Enable VSync
--> Disable Normalized Sleeper // Gentle Fair Sleepers // New Fair Sleeper (just moved, was already there before)
-->Misc. Kernel Tweaks : Disable kernel error checking (already there before) // Sysctl kernel msgmin & msgmax tweak
Added an option to revert Adblocking
Fixed the issue where beats audio and walkman options would be displayed for gb roms when it shouldn't
Various bugfixes (a few swapped selections and unworking tweaks)
Removed the extra apps screen, this wasn't really matching the mainline of this project, since you can grab those apps from the market. Plus this makes the whole package lighter.
Switched to miui installer theme
v2.0
ø New Tweaks selection screen : Multitasking
==> Choose between :
4 levels of OOM Priorities
4 levels Minfree settings
2 levels of ZRAM compression
Tweak your kernel and dalvik cache to behave well and be stable on hard multitasking conditions
ø New Tweaks selection screen : Networks & Internet
==> Security tweaks :
Reinforce your TCP/IP Stacks to make them resist to SYN attacks which cause a DoS (Denial of Service) on your device. Now those lame-ass blackhat hackers won't harm you with this.
Block redirects : auto website redirections will be blocked
Block source-routing : source-routing can be used to hack into your device as it allows full tracing of packets.
==> Stability & Speed tweaks :
Increase the buffer and queue size of each tcp socket to give more stability on high broadband consumption conditions
Allow the system to re-use the Sockets on TIME-WAIT state. In clear time-wait causes memory-loading, memory-loading causes internet lagg, internet lagg sucks.
Various IPv4 protocol speed tweaking scripts using sysctl
DNS and ppp0 tweaks for faster name-resolution, which means faster connections to websites.
ø New Tweaks selection screen : GPS Configuration
==> Choose between 79 countries (and 5 continents) of gps.conf files: those files are essential for the accuracy and lock-speed of your device's gps. (Thanks to gangsterjoop for the files)
ø New Adblock file of over 200 000 hosts ! (100x more than before) (Thanks to BSDgeek_Jake for the host file) --> added to extra features screen
ø New init.d scripts :
Move Dalvik-cache to /cache to increase data storage
Bind-mount dalvik-cache to allow a device to boot without sdcard (useful for devices with damaged internal sdcard)
Touchscreen responsiveness improvement tweaks
ø New Enable/Disable features :
Disable and Re-Enable Android logger
Disable Gentle Fair Sleepers
Disable New Fair Sleepers
Disable Normalized Sleeper
ø Rewritten every single init.d script :
This allowed me to realize many of them were not working, so I added a lot of missing values, and fixed a countless number of errors, redundant values and typos. So there should be some big improvement on the effects of init.d tweaks.
I also set an order of execution of init.scripts to avoid conflicts.
ø Removed themes and S-Voice
The S-Voice flaw that allowed other devices to use it appears to be patched and it was heavy, and themes were heavy and not really useful, you can download a countless number of them for free on the market
ø Changed installer theme to Sense
I realized that the options subtitles were not readable with ics theme, so most of the tweaks effects explainations were hidden.
ø Pimp My Rom will now come in two versions :
One will include the latest version of Aroma (with touchscreen working out-of-the-box, but issues on some devices) and One using Aroma v2.51 (With touchscreen calibration, and this version appears to fix the weird texture/ghost-input/moving screen/vibration issues people have with some devices with aroma v2.56)
ø Major code clean-up, various bugfixes
Re-organized and cleaned-up both aroma-config and updater-script
Fixed the way the installation process input displays sections and sub-sections
Fixed some tweaks getting installed instead of others when they shouldn't, and some other bugs
Pimp my Rom is an aroma-installer based script that will allow you to choose between a plethora of nice tweaks, mods, apps, themes and features to add to your current rom.
YOU CHOOSE which options and tweaks to apply, all this with a nice touchscreen interface, even if you're not running a touchscreen recovery, thanks to Aroma.
You can now run this script on any Android Device !!! (GB/HC/ICS/JB)

- Select "Reboot my device" on last screen (or reboot from recovery) and enjoy
- Encountering issues ? (Texture, installation being blank, etc...) then try to do this :
Open the zip of the rom you are running (the .zip file that you flash in recovery)
Inside this zip, navigate to : META-INF/com/google/android
Extract the file called "update-binary" and rename it to "update-binary-installer"
Open Pimp my Rom's zip (i.e : PIMP_MY_ROM-v1.4.1-Universal.zip)
Inside this zip, navigate to : META-INF/com/google/android and delete "updater-binary-installer"
Now copy the "update-binary-installer" file you extracted from your rom to Pimp My Rom's zip (still in META-INF/com/google/android)
Close the zip and flash it

From android 4.x, do not turn off and turn on phone, it will be drain your battery like hell. Just reboot/fast reboot to save the battery life.

This is my personal rom -- source build from CyanogenMod 11.0 codebase by using portions from Evervolv (device tree, kernel, etc.). I have used few necessary modifications which I have learnt from other xda/github members (see in credits section).
Disclaimer
I am not the orginal author this ROM, I have just built it for my private pleasure. This ROM has been tested and verified to be stable for daily use, and even if I have spent a lot of my spare time into keeping it up-to-date, there may be some unknown bugs. Therefore be warned: If you rely on your device as it is your only phone be very cautious. If you decide to flash this ROM, you do it at your own risk and I am not responsible for any resulting damages!

- Trackball wake option in buttons menu (enabled per default)
- Tweaks for longer battery life and faster scrolling performance
- ART
- SELinux (disabled by intention)

Bugs in this ROM
- All bugs which are present in CM and Evervolv roms, e.g. Video Recording and MMS not working: You can try Videocam Illusion (audio at 44.1KHz!) and Textra SMS instead
- Sometimes the cLock widget does not display weather icons (Just remove the widget and add it again)
- According to user feedback, Exposed framework in combination with Gravitybox is no longer working on this rom!

Bugs with K3
- Some SD cards are not working with the latest rom version 2.0; In such case the rom gets stuck at the bootanimation, and you would find a bunch of logcat errors, e.g.:
Code:
I/dalvikvm( 95): Unable to open or create cache for /system/framework/conscrypt.jar (/data/dalvik-cache/[email protected]@[email protected])
D/dalvikvm( 95): Unable to process classpath element '/system/framework/conscrypt.jar'
E/dalvikvm( 95): Could not stat dex cache directory '/data/dalvik-cache': No such file or directory
-> Possible solution #1 if you want to stay with K3: try a different SD card..
-> Possible solution #2: Flash this rom with K2
Please let me know if you find bugs. And please take a logcat if you encounter a FC (force close). Here you can learn to logcat like a pro!

Todo list:
Check if sio scheduler can be added into k2 and set as default
Upgrade to android security patch level from Jan 2016
Kill bloat with fire (further slim down the rom)
Move ROM downloads to new AFH service (/)
Attention:
* To install KitKANG version 3 you have to
** switch back to the "old" KK version of TWRP (credits @Chromium) or 4EXT (credits @madmaxx82) Recovery. Old versions of CWM may cause issues.
** switch back to the "old" hboot which has a system partition of 250mb. These include stock hboot or Alpha Jelly (250/5/182) hboot.
General requirements:
- Rooted
- An hboot which provides a system partition with 250mb. These include stock hboot or Alpha Jelly (250/5/182) hboot.
- A 512mb - 1.5gb EXT partition (EXT4 recommended) on your sdcard. Use this guide to create the partition. Partitions made using other tools (CWM, Minitool Partition Wizard, etc.) will likely cause issues.
- The latest TWRP (credits @Chromium) or 4EXT (credits @madmaxx82) Recovery. Old versions of CWM may cause issues.
Instructions for installing KitKANG v3.1
1) Backup your current apps incl. their data (use Titanium backup from Appstore)
2) Backup your current ROM from recovery
3) In recovery do a full wipe (format all partitions except for SD)
4) Flash rom
5) Boot and let the rom settle down (3-5 min)
6) Enable developer settings
- Open Settings > About Phone and tap 7 times on the "Build number"
- In Developer settings enable "Advanced boot menu"
7) Enable A2SD
- run Terminal Emulator
- type 'su' and press enter
- allow root access in the popup query
- type 'a2sd install' and press enter
- reply to questions in this order
--> y n n (dalvik to card - yes, data to card - no, reboot - no)

MD5 Sum: 724b6f3323810be7045959971b7d8eca
What's new in v3.0:
* Patched Stagefright 2.0 & Android Security Updates from Nov 2015
* After considering usage reports from version 2.0, I decided to return to 250mb hboot and A2SD which will allow our ancient device to get the most out of Android 4.4.4
* Made one build with kernel 2.6.38 (default CPU gov: smartassH3) which offers great speed and battery life (daily driver)
* Made other build with kernel 3.0.16 (default CPU gov: smartassH3) which offers great speed and short battery life (experimental)
* Changed animation/transition scale defaults to 25% which lead to faster animations and smoother UI transitions
* Attention: this build's target is user instead of userdebug. This is for disabling debugging modules and root, in exchange it should result in higher performance. In case you need root, you need to flash SuperSU (see installation instructions).

7) Do a full wipe (Format all partitions except sdcard)
8) Flash ROM
9) Flash a GApps package of your choice -- my recommendation is the PICO MODULAR PACKAGE with proper DPI play services ~99MB: http://forum.xda-developers.com/paranoid-android/general/gapps-pa-google-apps-roms-t3074801
10) Boot ROM and let it settle down (3-5 min)
Flash a recovery or hboot via PB99 method:
1) Ensure the integrity of the downloaded image by checking against the md5
2) Copy the zip file to the root of your SD card and rename it into PB99IMG.zip
3) Reboot into bootloader
4) After a few seconds boot loader will search the file and ask you to apply the update
5) Press vol up for yes and then it will ask you to reboot
6) Again press vol up for yes
7) Now hold vol down to re-enter recovery
8) Format all partitions except SD card
9) Before flashing a rom or sth else reboot the recovery to allow the changes to become effective
Note:
Let the rom settle down after 1st boot (3-5 minutes!)

KitKANG v1.2 / CM11 UNOFFICIAL 19/04/15 - 203.83 MB
MD5 Sum: 5dce06a0c48e76c5eba43135705ddbbc
Take PICO MODULAR GApps with proper DPI play services ~99MB from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/paranoid-android/general/gapps-pa-google-apps-roms-t3074801
What's new in v1.2:
1) Use Data2ext4 (credits walter79)
* This is meant to permanently solve the biggest remaining pain that bravo kk users have: running out of space on /data
* Makes using A2SD scripts from Evervolv obsolete
* Requires a SD-EXT partition on SD card of size between 1GB and 4GB
* Requires a custom hboot which provides sufficient space on /system (e.g. 420-5-12)
2) Added quite a few tweaks and build.prop mods:
* Increase ui responsiveness (credits CM)
* Enable slow blur (credits CM)
* Media profiles: use m4v to gain performance improvements (credits walter79)
* Improved incoming call response time (if screen is turned off the call appears now after ~3 seconds) (credits walter79 and pixelfreak)
* Per default KSM enabled (gives our device more virtual RAM)
3) Added back an improved version of Torch app which won't shutdown when screen turns off

Joking, just wanna be the first to post! :laugh:
EDIT:
- Installation was successful, took very long (~ 10min at setting permissions), 5min for 1st boot
- Is there already a wifi fix that i dont know, because i can not authenticate with my wifi network?
Please make pics smaller. It's hard to read now.
I'll give it a try

I am glad to hear that it boots! :good:
I also could not connect to wifi sometimes -- I have solved it by inserting a SIM card.
Is this working a liitle bit? So can i use this? Or is this just such an alpha test rom, which does not really work?
I have experienced only a few soft reboots (when adding/tapping on a widget). And it has sometimes graphic glitches (black regions in stock browser like in Nikez KK).
Apart from that following things are working:
- Telephony
- USB mass storage
- Bluetooth
- Wifi (with inserted SIM only)
- 3G
- Camera
Not working:
- Videorecording

- Wifi (network with wpa2 security) is still not working although i inserted a sim card. Maybe the sim card has to be inserted during flashing the rom or the first boot?
- 3G works without probs
- Gravity Box App has FC when i try to open it
- it seems that xposed framework 2.4 is not active (the app opens and is telling exactly what i wrote before). Even a new download and installation within the app doesn't solve that. Not even a reboot.
- Google Search has random FC's
Despite the Wifi-Problem, it's nealry possible to use this rom as a daily driver! Thanks for your effort Spezi for this development! :good:

You weren't exactly clear with your first question.
So if you understand what the hboots are, and the clear differences between stock and Alpha Jelly hboots, the answer which one is 'best' is pretty obvious...
Stock: 250MB /system, 40MB /cache, 147MB /data
Alpha Jelly: 250MB /system, 5MB /cache, 182MB /data
Would you like more data :good:. or would you like more cache ?
