This is a full build of HC3.2 with some customisation. Please use this for testing purposes only.
Testing over - Please get the final version here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204267
Beta Release
Prime 1.7 Beta
MD5: af5726b84c58f36052f843d2846670f3
Alpha Release
http://kan.gd/uzo
MD5: bc34b39b1c2702ba35da7ce1d86ac561
Custom Kernels from 3.1 sources DO NOT WORK with this so it's your own fault if you try and it breaks! There is now at least one kernel that works on 3.2. Please report feedback on compatibility.
I'm not sure whether all the built in apps are working ok as deodexing this was a ***** so please test to destruction.
I'll be adding all of the features from previous builds when I get time and also fixing any bugs reported in this thread.
To Do:
Deodex
Optimise and Zipalign apk's
Add init.d Support
Tweak scripts
Get AnyConnect working
Add PowerMods
Add Dock Battery Meter
Update pre installed apps to latest versions
Add WIFI Ad-Hoc Support
Bugs found so far (These may also be present in the stock ROM)
Weather Widget - Last update time shows PM 0:38 (Should be PM 12:38)
Flash framerate problem still present for some. There doesn't seem to be anything I can do with the ROM to fix the issue as it has to do with /data
Problems for some with Videos/Pictures not loading properly. Backup and wipe to see if the problem persists. - Appears to be inherited from the Asus Stock ROM
I'm uploading a beta release, everything form my previous ROMs is now in. I have more to do like play about with VPN stuff but this is of the standard of my previous builds atm.
I've also added a zipalign on boot script and an automatic module loader so cifs, voodoo and hopefully tun as well work out the box.
Zipalign on boot script donated by the Xoom Tiamat team and written for Bugless Beast by Pete.
Automatic module loader script was also from the Xoom team but I have modified that to suit my needs.
Also a special thanks to Tera Tike for the new boot animation sequence.
To all patiently putting up with my rubbish UK upload speeds...
I'll update the thread title when the upload completes so you don't have to keep checking in the thread. f5f5f5f5
Why alpha? Whats the main bug in this rom?
Can this be used on WW versions? Or only US?
Sounds pretty Awesome!
Alpha version? So, still buggy...

No, not necessarily... Alpha version, so new, so not guaranteed to be stable.
Can;t wait to try it when I get home

Can you tell us about the latest changes and kernel?

Installing now. I am coming from Clemsyn Rom and Kernel Combo and did a full wipe. Since this is a full package I hope it works. Thanks for you fast work on this Roach.
Flashed it, working great.
Anyconnect from Cisco still doesn't work, but VPN Connections does!
I think the problem with Anyconnect lies with Busybox. It the seems the software tries to install some files, but fails somehow.

Just installed it, apparently all the flashing process and loading the ROM was smooth and OK. So far I have noticed 2 issues: Quadrant benchmark cannot be run it gets stuck and freezes , the system tries to force fit to screen and also landscape mode, maybe this is the cause, the other is that I cannot play .mkv 720P or 1080P files that I used to be able to play before, the first video I tried to play oddly enough it offered me to start playing from where it was stopped last time(had memorized it apparently) but then it told me it couldn't play it, this was with the stock video player, then I tried it with Mobo player resulting in the same error: not able to play. This was tested with and without mini-hdmi connection to an external LCD TV. I will keep on testing it and reporting any issue. Maybe I will flash the netformer 1.5 kernel to see what happens....
I installed it and it boots fine. But 1.6 was smoother and the inputlag is really bad. I have just wiped cache and dalvik
Edit: ok, just let it settle a bit and now it runs great. Thank you for your work
wewt!
THANK YOU! great work once again roach ^_^ ; looks like my summer vacation has been cut short....lol

Good for you then! I tried several times and in the best case it showed a couple of graphical tests but stopped and did not finish, also I could not just get out of that application had to press the HOME icon.
Flashed Netformer and its not working. I get juust a lots of coloured stripes a croos the screen. Not possible to see anything. Going back to Alpha kernel and further testing
Sweet,quick work roach,i just got home,gonna try it now.
Edit:Works great so far,no problems so far,changed the wallpaper,connected to wifi ok,scrolls smooth and fast,internet browser seems to work fine,i dont see any big improvements or changes in this asus update,it looks and runs just like 3.1 to me,but then again im not technically smart,so i dont know what os improvements this brought for development.
Welcome Frostmod version 2.0. A lot of work has gone into this update that I hope you will enjoy. I've spent much time on making this rom highly customizable, in other words, almost nothing is unchangeable. In my frostmod tool box app, you can now change the font of the clock, switch between adw launcher, and gingerbread aosp launcher, and a assortment of boot animations. The old permanent ics lock screen is gone. The one in version 1.6 that required a reboot is to clunky. Now you can simply go into the cyanogenmod menu, and easily apply frostmod lockscreen. there is also no native theming. All my theme work is located in a single theme manager app. A lot of things have been added to my theme, just look at the settings menu. Also in the about phone menu, you will now see a button that says frostmod version. Click on it for a full changelog, help, thanks and more. The cyanogenmod base has also been updated to cyanogenmod 7.2.0 RC1.I hope you like this update. If you enjoy the rom, and the time I spent on it, make sure to give me a thanks
Bellow you will find a download link, and many screen shots. All screen shots have my theming applied, as well as ics clock font. The rom can easily be changed to have the "clean" look". If you have any comments, bug reports, or recomendations, please post them bellow

I am extremely sorry, I had one that booted, but I just restored one of my stock froyo backups, and then flashed to this, and it does not work I am going to take down the download link for now, but I will have one up that works in around 30 minutes
Can't wait for the new file so I can test this out. Thanks man!
I believe I have fixed it, and it should boot now. Remember that this is pretty much stock cyanogenmod, but I am working on a great theme
So far very smooth rom, seems stable. Thank you for your work.

Runs amazingly smooth. Went from CM7 to this, and everything is just so much snappier. Thanks for making a custom-built OG droid experience!
Running it now, seems to be nice, and love the 1.2 ghz over clock.. Great Job!
Running quite smooth so far, using the first link not the second, would love to try the second but I dislike pre skinned roms

Hello, this is a notification on my version 2 rom's progress. I have included a lot of new things, and have gone deeper into the source code. My next rom will have a better theme, but I am attempting to get most of theme into a theme Chooser app so you can decide if you want my themeing or not. There is also plenty of XML editing. I think you will get a few laughs out of my next version
I just have to work out a problem with the desk clock app

Thats very good news! (besides the whole desk clock problem) I like how your rom is shaping up, it's nice and stable, though for some reason it's really laggy on my phone, but I like your theme from your past version, especially the pull down menu
Lovin the rom but why is the launcher so blurry in the app drawer
How is this rom coming along?

Further testing on other devices as well as input from several users has indicated that this ROM will not run properly without you being formatted to ext4. This procedure can best be accomplished with TWRP Recovery by SilverL. It is my understanding that it has a user friendly option there for bringing your device up to speed. I apologize for any confusion this may have caused & my oversight in not catching this before now. (4/16/2013)EASY How to Install AlienMOD Solar Flare Series 5:1) Wipe Data / Factory Reset
2) Wipe Cache
3) Wipe Dalvik Cache
4) Install Solar Flare

Download Solar Flare Series 5 HereDownload Gapps HereDownload Playstore Here
Be Sure and Reboot and Go Back to Pickup Your Gapps and flash Them after Initial Boot. Reboot Again After Gapps Setup and Pickup Playstore, Flash it and Boot Back Up. It Should Run Fine Just as It's Supposed To If This Guideline is Followed.One thing I need to mention is there seems to be an issue with the newest update for the Nova Launcher. When I updated I started getting widget crashes & FC's but as soon as I went back & removed the update everything was peachy again.

Variety IS the spice of life, ya know. Just remember though, I'm JUST porting these which is a LOOOOOG way from building from source & coding in my own tweaks & additions. Your REAL developers here are alwys Tbalden, SilverL, Scverhagen & xmc Wildchild. Without their ongoing work & shared knowledge none of the things I bring here would be even remotely possible. And of course my buddies Strapped365 & Mattlowry with their helpful hints on fixes & patches & constant encouragement. Just sayin'......:good:

I haven't had to use it but it may help in certain circumstances. I tested this thing in several different format for a week now and the ONLY thing that has caused a problem (now that I think of it & should be in the OP) is that if you update the Nova launcher things CAN get wonky for some reason. If you have, just go back to the market & do an update uninstall from there.
I'll add to the OP now.
You've released so many ROMs, that my wife doesn't like you very much!
I keep stealing her phone & sticking her with her old, retired phone all the time. That way I can alternate them and keep one functional while I flash and play with the other.
I can't decide which ROM I'll stick with. I keep coming back to Black Dalhia, but it doesn't spend much more time on my phone than all the others I keep trying! I'm wiping "as we speak" to try this one. I was about to flash Carbon, but this one caught my eye!

I agree there is a difference between porting and building from source, and you just mentioned a bunch of individuals I hold in the highest regard. I can't begin to count the times I've been grateful to each one of them for their contributions, and been awed at their abilities.
HOWEVER, without the final steps of porting, troubleshooting, patching, and fixing, most of us (ESPECIALLY me) would never get to enjoy the fruit of the coders' and developers' labor on the good ole DS. So thanks are also due to you and your fellow chefs.
I am deeply grateful to all of them (and a few others, besides); but, in this thread, I thank YOU, WEEKENDS! This ROM looks and sounds great!

I didn't go to that extreme, lol. I just did the standard wipe and flash. If i was feeling more gangsta today, i would just completely wipe my memory card and make sure its partitioned correctly for apps2sd, then try it again, since i'm sure i have a lot of junk from previous roms. Only thing i can think of that could potentially maybe make a difference.
I totally dig the rom, buuuuut i kinda need to be able to install apps

Did you both check your downloads against the published md5 sum on Dev-Host? It makes no sense to me what's happening to you guys. I flashed this thing several times on my own phone & one last time on the wife's without a single issue. This baffles me more than it does you. I'm sorry for problems you're having but I'm at a loss.
I've had 14 downloads and these are the only two issues claimed against it.

Only having the two phones to bounce this off of it HAS to be the difference nicholasb. Mine is ext4 formatted and the wife's isn't. How I missed it is I really only test the initial flash, setup and opening and closing some things, etc. on her DS. (I SWORE to her I would always go gently with hers )
It's MINE that I run everything thru the paces with including Market updates & install, etc., etc.... It just has to be what's making the huge difference.

Well, I must say that I appreciate your persistence and hanging in there to try a few things but with 17 downloads & no other input, I'm going to temporarily disconnect the link. At least until I have time to do some more file chasing myself. Right this moment, I just don't have time. MAYBE tonite but more likely tomorrow. She's running fine on mine but there has to be an identifiable reason it's so different for you.
Thanks again & I'll give everyone a heads up when this changes.
OOPS! Didn't see that last part Bro. Let me see what happens on your end before going further.
Welcome to the new age of Gingerbread!!
Gingerbread? WTF? Yes I know everyone wants ICS&JB but they have not had any of this kicka$$ gingerbread yet.
4g, HDMI, SMS/MMS, FFC, Flash media (streaming internet video), Every freature HTC offered with this phone works with this rom (even the kick stand. LOL!!)
I have been in my kitchen cooking up something special for yall OG users. Until now you had a difficult choice to make. Use gingerbread to have full function of your OG or use ICS/JB and have the looks but lose some features. Now this is not just another themed out gingerbread rom trying to be ICS/JB. This is a complete rework of GB with many features found in ICS/JB back ported. I did not create this rom but I did merge the source code with multiple OG device trees to get it working. The real credit goes to SquadZone!! These guys are awesome and have done a super job with this. So for everything that works thank them and for everything that is broken blame me.
So lets take care of the b.s. first.
https://github.com/CyanMobile - Source I used to build from
https://github.com/atyoung - Source used for kernel
https://github.com/jlmancuso/KAKA - My source of KAKA (not uploaded yet, still testing before releasing)
My kernel K.A.K.A. is still in the works. I just have not had time to get it finished yet.
Thanks to:
SquadZone - for an awesome source
Atyoung - for the best gb kernel
Evervolv - for being the best (oh and I stole some of my device tree from them)
CM - another awesome group (yes I stole some of my tree from them too)
B-boy - for most of the black and transparent apps (http://b-boytm.webnode.com/themed-apps)
Google - without I would never have been able to build this beast from source (by Google I am refering to the search engine mostly)
PlatinumPenguin - who donated his old 3vo to me (this will also be built as a tablet style rom later for him)
thedemonic - testing and repacking the boot.img for me (thanks a million!!!)
....more will be added later
Also always feel free to hit me up on google (plus+, talk, or old fashion email, [email protected])
Beta 3.0 is out but it is not the grand enchilada I have planed. With all the small things acting up I have had to put the cool things to the side for the moment and focus on the core. I have been running this all day downloading, surfing, streaming music, video, playing with dropbox. So I think we are now ready to have enjoy this Beast of a Rom.
Install Instructions
1. Backup your current ROM
2. Download and flash current rom
3. Do not flash anything else (except kernels) If you flash any mods you will most likely have issues.
4. Reboot phone and wait. First boot takes a very long time and you may get a reboot right after the splash screen. This is normal no worries also the boot song will finish before the rom is done loading.
5. Go to Post 2 and setup your gps and a2sd if you want it.

CyanMobile Pre-Beta 3.0 Tester 4
Special Release
Since I have what looks to be a stable base I wanted to go ahead and let yall use it. This does not have the custom kernel or install script yet (been busy working Lol! So I have not finished the kernel. This release has 100% of the included apps working and so far I have had great feed back from my beta testing team. Thanks guys. All of the apps from 2.3 are still in 3.0 (transparent & inverted) with only a few changes to the versions. So far everything downloaded from the market works without any issues.
BOOT AUDIO WARNING
this audio should be 99% safe (nothing bad) yet might still give you a shock factor
Special Flashing Instructions
1. DO NOT!! flash any extra tweaks, or mods!! The can and most likely result in bootloops and will most likely require a complete wipe and reinstall of CyanMobile!!!
2. You can flash other GingerBread AOSP kernels. This could also have adverse effects. Like always this is just a warning if you flash it you might have to fix it. LOL..
3. THIS WILL WIPE everything but your sd-ext and sdcard. I always suggest wiping your sd-ext if you have problems with the first install. You made a backup right?
4. Flash Rom
5. Reboot (Gapps included with rom) WARNING: DONT UPDATE ANY GOOGLE APP THIS WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS IF YOU DO.
6. Wait and enjoy your boot audio (first boot takes a very long time)
7. Please let the phone sit for a few mins before the first use this ROM has lots of things it only does on the first boot so as hard as it can be please, please, please wait. It will be worth it.
8. Now reboot phone and enjoy the wonders of GingerBread!! Who knew it could be so good?
9. Now for those who read all the instructions before doing something I have a treat for you.
10. Now go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42092464 follow the instructions I posted there to enable a2sd (yes a small part of my CyanMobile settings map, Now for sale as an app for only $19.99 Lol!!
(5-16-2013)

Should fix status 7 error
(5-15-2013)
CyanMobile Beta 2.1, 2.2, & image-file.zip
Removed supercharger (maybe temp, maybe perm not sure yet)
Fixed random boot animations!! (there are now 10 different boot animations)
JB binary still not playing nice with this rom
Changed kernel to SBC-FSO version (was just SBC)
Added hdmi app
Removed market updater
Removed BMKG.apk (not sure what it was but it was not in english)
Legacy launcher added back (was included with souce although I like the adw launcher from the 3vo build better)
Added an ics style launcher
Added older RomToolBox (do not upgrade this version will let you backup and install app+data without buying the app)
Removed adfree (romtoolbox has a better version)
Changed boot audio (that other one was giving me a headache)
I will also be upload a zip with image files so if you get status 7 you can always flash these through bootloader (or if on hw004 they can be used through recovery)

KAKA Kernel information and change log
KAKA is now available for your Og!!!
What is KAKA?
KAKA stands for Kick A$$ Kernel Aosp version. It is an updated and modified version of the Mason G series kernel.
What has been done to make it KAKA?
Well this is the first release and also my first kernel so it is a work in progress. I have added 3 governors and enabled SWAP.
What is in KAKA's future?
I plan on adding more features such as two way call recording, adding more IO schedulers, and bringing this up to the latest Linux kernel version.
So what governors have been added?
I have created/modified 3 of my own while also including other available governors. Here is a list of all the governors.
Brazilianwax
conservative
intelllidemand
interactive
interactivex
lagfree
lazy
lionheart
lulzactive
minmax
ondemand
ondemandx
performance
powersave
samurai
savegedzen
scary
smartass
smartass2
smoothass
superbad
userspace
virtuous
wheatly
and my new ones
deathbysoap
diablo
hipkat
This kernel will be a match for the rom. More options than most users will know what to do with. For now it is only available with CyanMobile or from source if you want to compile it yourself. There is also plans for ICS and JB versions some time in the future.
So what are deathbysoap, diablo, and hipkat?
Well they are my tribute to 3 of our great XDA members and modified versions of existing governors. I have chosen each governor to reflect (somewhat) each member and then modified each one to make them better.
Death by Soap - is a modified version of intellidemand
Diablo - is a modified version of SmartAss2
HipKat - is a modified version of Conservative
Each one has been tweaked to give better performance and battery life. Specifics of the modifications will be provided later.
What I/O Schedulers will be available?

Nice... Kinda first.
What you mean kinda first? Mine dont count. LOL! I pull two extras off the top to keep the OP clean and neat. Oh by the way for those who get the rubix cube just tap it and it will go away. Also random boot animations are not really setup yet it just has the ones for the nexus which is where I stole the script from. LOL! Well I guess stole is not the correct term since I gave credit. Swiper no swipe!!!!!!!!!!!
oh well. this was to be an edit of my change log but somehow became a post. not enough sleep and too much bud
Guess I should flash my zip since I have not tested it yet. This was pulled straight from my phone and zipped up and sent to the net before I even thought to test it. I sure hope it works.
Edit: Rom works but not like what I had in my phone. v6 freaked things up. Busybox is massive a su bianary is missing along with a couple of apps and mods. New upload this afternoon.
Kinda second....

Wow does this have a ton of options. I haven't seen a ROM this feature packed since MIUI. It also runs fast even in Boot Manager, which runs from the sd card. I can only imagine how fast it runs from the phone. Still exploring, but excellent job!

yeah the download is good he just needs a different install script. i have not updated it to the jellybean installer. well actually i did check which one it used by default during the source build. the new download will have the updated script plus i will remove the market updater. even though this rom claims to be 2.3.8 it still requires an ancient market and will not run any other version. i will have to dig around and find a tweaked version of market to include also.
new update will be up within the next couple of hours. i am working on it now. also sorry about the dl size while digging around the rom i noticed the size of xbin (which is where busybox is) talk about a massive error there. rom should be a few hundred megs smaller next go round.

Again sorry about the size of that one. At 4 am it is hard to remember to check all that stuff. I have beta 2.1 setup and I am testing it now. Although this is still a large rom at 317 megs it is better than that 560+ bs of beta 2. Also just about every extra app I added is located in the data partition so if you dont want or need it you can easily uninstall it.
The update will be done shortly I have to do a bit of work to get the installer script squared away since I am converting it over to the JB binary. With luck it will be on the servers before 3 PM CST!
Edit: Bad news for yall status 7 people. The JB binary is having issues with this rom. I am going to try making a new kind of install and see it I can get yall on this too. It will be flashed from the bootloader like a RUU if I can make it work. Keep your eye out for the beta 2.1 RUU style release. Until then yall are still a no go on CyanMobile. SORRY
Well this sucks. Started upload over hour ago and only at 5% with estimated 6+ hrs remaining. Going to try uploading from my cell with es file explorers sftp feature. Might only take two hours that way.

As always, I am not responsible for you bricking your phone. Odin is not a toy, CWM Recovery is not a toy. Installing custom ROMS is relatively easy, but if you are unsure what you are doing, do some research on XDA or Google BEFORE you start messing around. This ROM is working and running on my S730M and I have had no problems so far.
OMG!
I've been waiting so long for somebody to make a custom rom for this phone! This is the first custom rom for this phone at last! I shall try it out and get back to you my good sir.
Sweet! Thanks :laugh::good:

Thanks! It was plagued with issues to start, just trying to get a flashable zip of the stock ROM together was a nightmare, and since there wasn't one any where on the internet to use as a base, well... had no choice but to make one. I'm going to release a non over clocked version as well. This one is still close to stock with a few mods and tweaks, so enjoy and I'll keep working away at bringing a true custom to this phone

Good Job!
I flashed it on my Discover today and it worked flawlessly.
By the way, I didn't make the OC script. It was FitAmp, the credits should go to him.
What launcher did you use? and good job on making a working rom for it, I had been messing around with trying to cook one in the kitchen app for the SS730G. I may give that one a shot with flashing this one, the stock rom on it is having issues anyways as when I try to shut it down it reboots 9 times out of 10.

Launcher pro, the only launcher I will use since I bought my first droid, runs clean and light. There's always the option to change to whatever launcher you like, for me, on this phone, runs the smoothest and that's what I'm going for here. Many changes still to come!
Kitchen is a great tool for learning AS LONG as you take a look at every change you implement with kitchen, in the update or updater script itself. The one thing about it is, that if you fully rely on kitchen, even if it does work, you won't learn a thing. All of the changes kitchen makes, can be made in terminal and text editor (Linux) to give you some hands on experience

I'm partial to the Nova Launcher myself, but I know what you mean. While the stock launcher is better than the standard Samsung Touchwiz crap, it definitely could use a speed increase on this phone.
I keep hoping and dreaming that someone will be able to port KitKat to this phone. I just flashed the current SlimKat rom on my Nexus S and I'm impressed with how fast the Google Now launcher performs on it. Maybe with this one overclocked to 1GHz and it having 512 megs of ram which I think is a little more than the Nexus S had it would make a different.

Kit Kat was built to run on 512mb, from everything I've heard it utilizes memory way better than any other version yet. I'm going to look at porting ROMs to this device, but one project at a time . It should be possible though. Even if I can port a stock 4.4.2 and start customizing from there, I think this phone would benefit tremendously from it, more so then newer more powerful devices.

I flashed my 730G with this rom, so far it looks good. I may switch the launcher to a different one but other than this it looks and appears to run fine. I can't test the radio at the moment as my net10 sim is cut down to nano size and I can't find my regular sim to nano sim adapter. I know I have one but finding it will be the fun part.
Double check the Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPS etc, make sure they turn on and work. They should as they work fine on the 730m, but you never know. I haven't seen the build.prop for the G

And check your root too. If root works than the rooting process is the same for both. Just open root browser and if it asks for superuser access you're golden. Plan to add terminal and cpu tuner in the next update.

The wi-fi and GPS appear to work fine. I still haven't been able to find my nano to regular size sim adapter. I wound up replacing launcher pro with nova launcher, and I also installed Titanium backup which I used to integrate the google keyboard. After I switched over to it, I froze the samsung keyboard which was a pain in the ass to have to work with. You may want to look into switching the keyboard if you have a preference in a future release. I really like the google keyboard myself.

The wi-fi and GPS appear to work fine. I still haven't been able to find my nano to regular size sim adapter. I wound up replacing launcher pro with nova launcher, and I also installed Titanium backup which I used to integrate the google keyboard. After I switched over to it, I froze the samsung keyboard which was a pain in the ass to have to work with.

I've considered switching the default launcher to nova, or I should say I've tried to. I've had issues with everything I've tried, except launcher pro, and lightning launcher. Lighting launcher is actually extremely fast and lightweight, I think the app itself is less the a MB, but its far different than your standard, familiar style of launcher so I opted out. I've tried solo, which is nearly identical to nova, except there's no pro version, all "pro" features are entirely free. I've also tried KK launcher, again very similar to nova, but all three of them will not load after the initial setup screen. Just don't work well as system apps. Loading them into the data partition should solve this problem, but they install with a file size of 0 MB, and again, won't actually load. All of them work fine when installed from the market, or from an apk, just haven't had luck packaging them with the ROM. I'll look into the keyboard thing. I prefer Swype, but given it's a paid app, I can't really incorporate it, and I don't want to just include a 30 day trial app in the ROM. I'll keep plucking away at it tho. Thanks a ton for your input

ok I just wiped it and went thru setup, it worked with no issues with the samsung keyboard and the nova launcher as system apps. maybe this will help for customizing the rom further? Also it might be a good idea to remove the updater app just to be safe. While I don't think that they would ever push out a rom update for the samsung S730M or S730G it might cause issues if someone who didn't know better used the updater app and downloaded a rom update. It may not be an issue, but I figured it was worth mentioning
I wanted to give an update. I was able to successfully use your rom as a base to make my own custom rom. I had to extract the updater script binary from yours to drop into the appropriate folder in my working folder. I'm going to do a little more fine tuning on what apps I want to include but I should have it ready to share soon.
Also, I finally found my adapter so I was able to read my Net10 sim in my S730G, other than it not having the correct APN which I had to manually enter It worked with no problems once I setup the APN, full signal and no issues with downloading anything once the APN was setup.
OK I've finished the 1.0 version of my rom. it can be found here
Thanks but
before I flash this I want to know if anyone knows where I can download the odin flashable stock firmware for this device. So glad that this is out though but this phone is only 4 months old for me still got 8 months for something to go horribly wrong with it
Thanks! Overall OK.

There is no Odin flashable ROM for this phone. I do have there stock flashable zips tho. Worst case scenario, you Odin flash recovery, then flash the stock zip via cwm. I've been working on CM 9, and have not been able to get it to work, but no matter how many times I've flashed it, I can always flash back to stock via recovery, haven't bricked yet

following!
I'm new to flashing in general so I am just learning what the process entails, but I just put CM11 onto an N7 '13 and I am very impressed with what people are doing. I also have a sluggish Samsung Discover so I'm very interested in how this work proceeds!
Best of luck everyone and thank you Atmu5fear, hopefully I can share my experience soon as well.
