IF YOU ARE COMING FROM AN EARLIER VERSION OF TAINTED-TENZO, YOU WILL NEED TO WIPE (at least) DALVIK BEFORE FLASHING.

In honor of hoban_eris and the Original Tainted Vanilla - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=674134 (thank you hoban_eris)

Tainted Vanilla is still one of my favorite ROMs. It was fast, stable, and had a perfect mix of Vanilla/Sense. hoban_eris has stopped developing/supporting his ROM, and he was gracious enough to allow me to continue this project for him! My ultimate goal was to create the most stable, fully functioning 2.1 ROM available. I love the CM5 builds... but I still run into issues with reboots, etc. And until the CM6/Froyo builds are polished, I will use this ROM :)

That being said, I have attempted to create a ROM based upon the new JulyOTA (thanks to t2noob and the Plain_JaneT2 base) and "Taint" it with the latest AOSP build :) (As well as add some new features, etc).

I will also do my best to continue to support the original Tainted Vanilla 1.4 as well.

INSTALLATION NOTES:

YOUR PHONE MUST BE ROOTED! (BTW, that means your warranty is officially VOID)

BEFORE INSTALLING, BE SURE YOU HAVE A FULL BACKUP OF YOUR SDCARD DATA AS WELL AS A GOOD NAND BACKUP

I HOLD NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHAT YOU DO TO YOUR PHONE, IF YOUR PHONE BREAKS, OR IF ANY GENERAL ILL-WILL COMES YOUR WAY ONCE FLASHING THIS ROM.

PLEASE NOTE: If your SDCard is not partitioned, it will need to be partitioned properly in order to use apps2sd. I recommend an ext3 partition with at least 512MB of space, with 0 swap/cache. As always, if you have questions, ask first! Also, if you already have programs installed to an ext3 partition, your programs will load up after you flash the ROM (i.e., DO NOT wipe your ext partition if you want your "old" programs to automatically restore).

TO INSTALL:

1) Load TaintedTenzo*.zip to the root of your SDCard.

2) With phone off, hold Power + Volume Up to boot into recovery

3) Choose "wipe" and press "Wipe data/factory reset" (I also recommend wiping Dalvik-cache as well), press down-key to go back to main menu

4) Choose "Flash zip from SDCard"

5) Choose TaintedTenzo*.zip

6) Confirm install by pressing trackball

7) After installation, choose to "Reboot system now"

First Boot can take up to 5-10 minutes.

After boot, HTC logo will appear for about 1 min, then setup screen appears

* Keep in mind that the HTC Mail app was removed... so attempting to setup an Exchange/IMAP/POP account from initial setup will FC (no ill effect on rest of setup). You can setup your unified mail inbox using the Vanilla Email app.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I recommend setting up SetCPU 2.03 next (download from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=505419 or BUY it from the market). I often get asked about SetCPU settings, so I've included mine (these will make your battery life GREAT and also ensure your phone doesn't get hot enough to cook on):

My SetCPU settings (screen shots below):

748 max (OC over 710 at your own risk!)

245 min

*(set on boot)

Profiles * (Adjust to your liking... this is how mine is setup):

Temp > 43.0 (priority 100) - 480/245

Charging/Full (priority 75) - 748/245

Battery < 20% (priority 50) - 480/245

Screen Off (priority 25) - 480/245

Advanced:

Sampling rate - 2000000

Up Threshold - 60

Ignore Nice Load - 0

Powersave Bias - 200

*(set on boot)

*** SetCPU NOTES ***

IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A PARTITIONED SDCARD W/SETCPU INSTALLED ON IT, YOU MAY HAVE A FC/CLOSE WHEN LAUNCHING. TO FIX UNINSTALL/REINSTALL SETCPU.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Additional Notes:

Recommended Spare Parts settings:

Window animations - Fast (or Off)

Transition animations - Fast (or Off)

Keyboard

The DroidX Multi-Touch keyboard is included in the ROM. To select, long-press any text filed and select "Input Method > Multitouch Keyboard" (you can also select "Menu > Settings > Keyboard and Language" to select).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

JIT is NOT enabled by default (going for a stable ROM with NO issues). The ROM is quite fast/responsive without it... and I can't stand random reboots, Pandora stuttering to a close, or NOT being able to use NFL Mobile with JIT enabled (among other stability/program issues). If you'd like to use JIT, you can simply "pull" the build.prop file (adb pull /system/build.prop) and change the following line:

dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast

to

dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit

then "push" back (adb push build.prop /system). You can also use a program like Root Explorer to change the file, save, and reboot.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you like this ROM, I recommend that you donate to:
