[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] sauron82:
I'm not having any problems with INT2EXT+, all my apps are loading and running fine, storage levels are what is expected. So thanks for that recommendation. What kind of problems are you having with it? Could that be affecting the input method selection?

I did a clean install for the keyboard app; I did not restore it from backup.

Does a nandroid backup backup my data as well? Or just the system and apps?

The problems I have are settings not taking. I can't change my input method. I did a clean install for the keyboard app; I did not restore it from backup. Also, the GPS and Data toggles aren't working. The GPS toggle just doesn't work, and the Data toggle stops my data, but the toggle doesn't turn off, it stays lit up. When I go into the network settings, the checkbox for data is still checked, but I have no data. I uncheck, recheck, still no data until a reboot. Wifi connects slow both at home and at work, so I know it's not a router issue.

Forget about not having permissions to save settings; if the zip file comes up as unsigned in CWM, it just won't let you flash it (that was my experience, at least).

This is what I do when I mod a rom prior to flashing:

-Replace the alarms, notifications and ringtones with my own audio (when I replace the ogg files after I flash, when I pick a ringtone or notification, the list shows two of every file, but only one works and I don't know why, so I add them to the rom and avoid that issue)

-Edit apns-conf.xml to add my apn info so I have a connection the first time I boot

-Edit gps.conf to add my country code (I got tired of doing it after flashing)

-Edit spn-conf.xml so my carrier name instead of MNC/MCC code show in my status bar

-Remove unwanted apps such as email.apk, fm.apk, audiofxwidget.apk (name varies), gallery.apk, and whatever launcher is included

-Add Root Explorer, LauncherPro (the only launcher I really like), calculator and camera if not included, and the non-transparent Apocalypse theme (because you can't install it from the apk)

-Replace the bootanimation

I don't change anything else (I haven't found a way to preload my WIFI networks the way I preload my carrier data; if anyone knows, please let me know). My goal is to reduce the steps involved in a flash-restore.

Just open the zip file in your explorer program of choice (you have to view the files inside without extracting; I use WinRAR so this is automatic), then delete what you don't need/want and add what you do. For editing the xml files (they can't be edited from within the zip file), I extract them, delete them from the zip file, edit them, then drag and drop back into the zip file. Only once have I ever had signing issues, and it was when I decompressed the entire zip file, made my changes, and recompressed. So to avoid signing problems, modify the zip file itself; do not extract, modify and re-archive.

Good job on the rom, but it still needs some work. I don't mean to come across like a ****; I know you do this in your spare time, and I appreciate all the work that you and others do on creating custom roms; I just like to add a few personal touches.

So, final thoughts on the rom: Runs decently, but has other problems. The speed is good, but the other problems (some may call them small) really bug me. Going back to Apocalypse for now.

Sorry for the long post.
