Beat me to it!!! I'm testing it now, finally got it working!! (Had to use $omator's framework.jar)

Hopefully V1.3 will be out tonight, with updated theme (new battery icon) and power menu.

And potentially a v.1.4 very soon with transparent statusbar (work in progress)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] NasrulBond:
does this rom got the CWM recovery like the ones from the cf-root?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Lio78:
Your rom is awesome but can you create a little update from v.1.2?

Anyway thanks for all.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xmsnx:
Lol, that's great news that you've sorted it out. Any preview of the theme?

Keep up the good work, amazing ROM! :-D

Sent from my Samsung Mobile.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dh2311:
Will be previews when it works, had to completely recompile the theme and its still a bit buggy, expect release tomorrow evening, still needs more time
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dready75:
Thanks a lot for this Great work

May I ask some question ?

Can you please add TV off screen effect ?

And why did you remove the colors of the parameter menu, stock XXJVK parameter menu is in colors ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dh2311:
Hmm.... quite buggy, dont know why either. Going to have to completely redo everything.

Regarding updates, will now release update files that simply replace the files I have changed, will reduce size and install time :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dh2311:
Tv off animation is there, just enable animations in settings, and colours removed because its part of the theme and I think it looks better, look for themes that change the settigs, all JVK themes will work with this ROM
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nico1375:
Rom is very snappy with lagfix enabled.

But I have the HUGEST battery drain ever...

Anyone in this case?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] martan1981:
Exactly, I also have huge battery drain. Cant even compare ro Darky 9,5. Its probably half of it...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] StriderNZ:
I used this ROM for a full day 48 mins call time, just over an hour of screen time, some audio book listening and ehanced mail used for my exchange account and gmail.. I used 50% battery which is definitely on par with any of the other ROMs I have been using lately.

Thanks Chef, I will flick you a donation on pay day.. Your ROM is definitely worth some reward.

:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
first:

you might want to check out what is draining your battery. settings, applications, battery usage.

use alogcat (from the market) and check if something is running in circles.

I have only about/max 1% an hour possibly less, phone sleeping, wifi off, H/3G on.

This ROM is fast and quick, really nice work, and it is realiable.

Concerning samsung apps!!!

Some people like them, some don't. Some apps are excellent, some are plain b...****.

However it is, I don't think a ROM developper should not take those out, or if they are out, he should offer a small zip with the necessary apps in it, to make samsungapps work, should only be about 5 or 6 files.

ok, that is one.

Second, I have asked if there is any solution of having voodoo sound? Why, because I am not deaf, and supercurio has done an outrageous job on the quality of the sound.

So again the question is, will voodoo sound be integrated in the kernel or another kernel be made available.

someone mentioned in a former thread that the sources are not available. First I know that and second I don't really see what that has to do with voodoo sound or samsungapps.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] martan1981:
Strange. I unplugged my phone at 8am and was on 50% by midday. 20 mins calls and some emails...

On froyo the biggest battery eater was display. It always ate about 80%.

But on ginger it is android system, which eats about 45%, then maps with 27% and display is just third with 25%. Different calculation or ...?

And why are maps eating so much. Latitude was on on froyo as well and were not eating that much.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dh2311:
CONCERNING SAMSUNG APPS

I will create a flashable zip with Samsung apps in, for those who want it.

VOODOO SOUND

This is something I have no control over, i am not a kernel dev so I cant say when it will be out. And please do not bug the devs for it, ot will be released soon.

BATTERY DRAIN

I dont seem to have any issues, try recalobrating the Battery ans removing lagfix, battery will improve then
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
the problem is, that you cannot tell anything just like that. you have to put your phone into sleep state, and check, like overnight, and the first thing you do in the morning, write the numbers down.

after you do this again, but under usual usage conditions, or even special conditions, like listening to music, fm radio and so on.

use alogcat, and check what is going on, and check if there are any errors stated in there, sometimes you find cycling errors in there, which can lead to a reason for battery draining.

don't forget to stop alogcat (settings, applications, force stop) thus it does not interfer.

well thats all folks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kirandeep:
I cant seem to install this rom, it says installing welcome to turbo ginger etc while installing but going into settings-about its still on the stock rom I have.

I am using CWM 3.0.0.5, would this be the issue? I couldnt install speedmod kernel , it stayed stuck on samsung screen on reboot.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
what are you doing?

this rom installation is very straight forward.

first flash stock JVK

put the rom's zip on you sdcard

then flash any kernel (speedmod) with cwm

then flash the zip with cwm
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] adrain:
Hw about the GPS issue of SGS? is it still present in this mod rom? because as what ive experience on stock rom jvk the problem is the gps... i cant get connected... and not accurate...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wcg707:
I think this is widespread issue with CWM3.0. It read the scripts but its not doing anything.

Try installing supercurio kernel with odin and then reflash your rom again. It may enable voodoo while its doing that, so if you don't want voodoo, then reboot and disable lagfix voodoo.

For me, no lagfix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] thaidroid:
Power

I have used this rom for a day and a bit. Excellent stuff. I was using, superpower app, on Darky to save battery. Kept it on on Gingerbread and it accounted for 48% of the battery use over night!!

So remove superpower if you use it
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zoubidou:
ok, the question another way round.

*is there any other especially voodoo kernel which has been tested with this ROM.

I did not ask any of the ROM makers to write there own kernel. I just would like to know if there are any other especial voodoo kernels which are tested with this rom?

because some kernels have different features, which might be interesting.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xmsnx:
The sources from Samsung are needed to be able to hack/edit/enhance the kernel. Without that the devs can do very little as far as I understand.

The only kernels (beta) are by supercurio and DamianGTO

I think the only thing you can do is wait for Samsung to release the source or flash back to 2.2.1
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] martan1981:
Sorry about the false alarm about battery drain. I recalibrated the battery and now after 3 hours of usage, 15 minutes calls and mails it dropped by 6%, which is great. Hope it stays that way :-)

Its still strange, as I thought that I have to recalibrate battery only if I flash a ROM when not fully charged. But I flashed with 100% battery, so I thought I do not have to calibrate after that. Nevermind, now I probably recalibrate after each flash :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] phalanger:
or maybe just stop obsessing about x% drain in y hours and just see how long your phone works on a full charge..

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dh2311:
Just want to update you on what is happening with this rom;

Tonight I am working on;

-Revamped theme (new battery icon, selection colours will be green (rather than stock orange, and few other tweaks)

- Extended Power menu (all working now, just need to complete theme)

- Transparent statusbar (possibly, not been tested or seen it, but I'm going to spend all night trying to get it to work

Also:

Samsung Apps update zip

i have flashed using odin the stock XXJVK with bootloader.

then i flash the speedmod K12D using odin.

now my phone is stuck in the galaxy s boot screen. help!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Brotuck:
When using a different navigation program, the phone completely hangs. I know that you managed to install some memory tweaks, but maybe they are to aggressive ?

After a reboot it worked fine.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Kiralina:
You have to:

1 take battery out and put SGS in download mode( I suppose you already have the rom on your internal sd;if not you can put it later after you have flashed the stock rom)

2 flash stock JVK with Odin and let the phone reboot

3 put the phone in download mode and flash the speedmod kernel with Odin-UNTICK REBOOT; the phone MUST NOT reboot. Just let the kernell flash totally and disconect the SGS from PC

4 take battery out and then put it back

5 use the 3 button combo( vol up-home-power) and boot in recovery

6 flash the rom

Is this possible? I'm asking because I like everything about ADW exvept the drawer, it's just too choppy for me the bear, whereas stock is incredibly smooth..

Thanks in advance :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peeturr:
Use launcherpro.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treUse:
Doesn't launcher pro modify the drawer aswell?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
yes. ADW is the closest as you can get to stock. modify the settings, i have it on 4D vertical and never noticed lag
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treUse:
Well, using the 4d setting grants me a choppy version of the stock drawer...

May I ask why all launchers modify the drawer, why not let it be?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
well somethings wrong with your phone / firmware and you need to seriously do something about it. mines is smooth as butter.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peeturr:
Sorry for my blunt response. I was thinking of launcher pro's 3d app drawer which is as smooth and graphically close to stock 2.3 as possible. But I forgot that it does not run smooth on the nexus s. I had it on my nexus one.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treUse:
I've practically tried all ROM's and kernels possible, not for this purpose though. And no matted what I used, the ADW drawer is choppy. And then I go back to stock launcher or replace ADW when on CM, and it's always incredivbly smooth...

So I guess there isn't a way to use stock drawer with ADW? And if that's the case, why?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] princeasi:

Hi, I have a HTC Elf0101 and i recently flashed its rom using romutilityuprade.exe and a CID unlocker. I think something went wrong because i cant turn the phone completely on now. When i push the power buttonn, it goes to the htc screen but then turns off automatically before it gets to the windows mobile screen. Also if i connect it back to the computer, activesync doesnt detect it. I can enter bootloader and connect it. Any ideas on how to fix it?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sshark:
Our phones have Samsung kby00u00vm-b450 NAND pre-installed from factory.

With all frequent flashing and wiping, I am worried about how long this NAND will last and does it have a limit on read/writes/wipes. :(:confused:

I am looking for someone to develop an app which analyzes health of the NAND and also possibly predicate number of read/writes completed and remaining.

Any thoughts/ideas??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasecloud4:
Ummmmmm....no offense intended but are you serious?

The only way to analyze the "health" of memory would have to be something along the lines of an app that would be able to determine bad disk sectors.

There really isn't a way to just say "Hey, you have a hundred writes left and then kiputz." Its just not feasible....

I could be wrong though....

~Jasecloud4
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frettfreak:
LMAO.. Funny... i have never thought about it in terms of an app, but i have often wondered if there is a limit to how long the NAND would last... i am a flashaholic!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingdazy:
all RAM has read write limits, and likely flashing/wiping every damn day (like some of us) was not taken into account when creating android phones.

actually not a terrible idea, something like SMART status would be kinda nice...

typical "ram testing" type applications for PCs would not work because they actually read/write to the sectors, and of course we dont want that... hm.

and likely it would have to be run in recovery too.

also, for future reference, try posting this kinda stuff in the Q&A, or general threads.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indagroove:
Every nand is good for exactly 9999 flashes, so just start keeping track of flashes.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sshark:
It does not have to be Android app, it could be low-level memory management/analyzer that could be run from recovery or just from PC.

Yes, something in recovery would be nice, which at least can assess number of good/bad sectors.

Also, if all of the devs agree on a common format, then with each flash or wipe, a cookie/text file can be updated to the SD CARD to reflect dates of all flash/wipes.

Since this is a development request I posted in this section, I know the general rules.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iitreatedii:
The way we flash is safe, the whole nand corrupt thing correlates to something like a jtag xbox. When I flash through with a lpt (printer) cable, you have to watch the nand, the way we do it is safe and nothing to worry about. If it were an xbox itS recommended to flash as few to one as possible to prevent damage, flash away!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RileyGrant:
The nand has about 10000 write cycles. If you flash twice a day on average thats almost 15 years.

You know what? This IS a really good idea! I've noticed that all 5 of the EVOs I've gone through (dont ask, long story) have had diminished performance the more I flash... I've grown past flashing EVERY ROM I see, and stuck to a really reliable ROM, and outside of a bad camera sensor (EVO #6 on the way) this one has performed flawlessly. I tried un/rerooting a few times, and that cleared bad/conflicting code, but didn't completely address the issues I was having... not until now did I think about connecting these dots. That being said, 1: THANKS for the eye opener!

2: I'd buy this app! (as I think many devs/ROM free basers would)

Nice work!

Spectral Souls - As far as I know the ONLY Strategy JRPG type on the market and IIRC it's a PSP port, but it's very well done and looks and plays amazing.

Game Dev Story - It's very simple but incredibly addicting. I don't know what genre you'd throw this in besides casual, but you take a game company from nothing and turn it to greatness.

Wordsmith - This is my favorite Scrabble clone, I prefer this over Words With Friends and Wordfeud. It just looks better to me and the on the fly score preview is great for those like me who don't care for manual counting.

3 Kingdoms TD - This is an odd game, but amazingly well done and my favorite Tower Defense game at the moment. It gets constantly updated with enough content that you would thing would be charged for, but it's all free (outside the purchase of the game of course). The graphics are great, it has a mildly bizarre storyline and it's very addicting.

Zenonia 2 is a great old school rpg game, Demon Hunter is pretty decent as well.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] violetv6:
I concur regarding these two.

Also would have to add:

Radiant HD - Nostalgia at it's finest, harkening back to the days of Space Invaders, with a corny storyline, and relaxing music to go along with it.

Gailardia - Also brings back memories, this time of NES RPG's [namely Dragon Warrior], and has a painful difficulty curve [going from area to area requires several level ups before it's even survivable]. I'd only recommend for the hardcore RPG gamer. :D

Illusia - Originally an iOS game [had it on my iPod Touch.. don't shoot me for owning one :P], and is quite good for a sidescroller RPG. Faintly reminiscent of Maple Story.
