If I have forgot anyone to thank/add credit anyone for any work I may have used here, please forgive as it will be unintentional and request you to please inform me so I will add credit for them too. Thanks.

**NOTE**

I actually made this as experiment to see if I can blindly make roms for a device I dont have. Looking at the best results, thought I should share with all.:angel:
