Unofficial "SuperRAM Gingerbread" - Experimental Version

In order to keep this thread and the "SuperRAM" spirit alive while waiting for Darkstone's return, I am sharing with all fans of Darkstone SuperRAM Froyo an unofficial version of "SuperRAM Gingerbread" based on Oxygen 2.0.3 by adamg (Gingerbread version 2.3.3)

Note that this is an experimental version which I have created after spending weeks on XDA forum learning how to port a ROM. I am not taking any credit for this build as most of the work are done by these great guys listed below.

Please thank or donate to them:

1) Takaaki & crawlingcity: Initrd for Gingerbread that enables RAM (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=885985)

2) Adamg and Team: Oxygen 2.0.3 ROM orginally made for HTC Desire (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=971904)

3) Tytung: HD2 Kernel (r9) as well as camera lib and msic files from his Nexus build for porting Oxygen 2.0.3 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=10429937#)

4) Darkstone: Of course for the orginal idea and SuperRAM Froyo build plus his numerous contribution to HD2 Android.

What works:

1) Basic smart phone features (calls, sms, apps etc)

2) Camera/Video Recording

3) Wifi (tested on WEP encrypted Network)

4) Bluetooth (tested on Jabra Extreme headset)

5) GPS (tesed with GPS status app)

6) Wifi Tether/Hotspot (Install "WIFI Tether 3 Experimental.apk" attached below and select Device-Profile=Google NexusOne in the settings. Thanks to jcsy for helping)

What does not work:

Let me know if you find any other issues/problems but I can't guarantee to fix them.

Pre-requisite & Min Requirements:

Same as SuperRAM Froyo... basically stock ROM and at least radio 2.08 and above (No HSPL, cLK, MAGLDR, CWM etc. needed)

Installation:

1) Unzip the download package with the Android folder into the root of your SD card

(Optional: edit startup.txt if you know what you're doing based on the instructions given inside the file)

2) CLRCAD.exe and then haret.exe

First boot takes about 1 minute. Subsequent boot should be ~30-45secs. First boot you will see HTC logo, black screen, Oxygen animation, Android welcome screen.

Don't bother to wait above 2 minutes if device still does not boot into Gingerbread. Do the usual SD card format and if still does not boot, just try other build.

3) Optional: Reboot your phone after the initial first boot up into Android.

FAQ (Please Read!)

1) I don't see a difference of this "SuperRAM Gingerbread" vs SuperRAM Froyo. Why?

- Oxygen ROM created by Adamg is supposed to be totally clean and hack free. So you see minimal aesthetic change from Oxygen 1.xx (Froyo - Android 2.2) to Oxygen 2.xx (Gingerbread - Android 2.3). Only the underlying Android OS is upgraded.

1) Why does the "speed" of this build seem much slower than SuperRAM Froyo?

- For instant speed gratification, install ADW Launcher or Lanucher Pro from Market download and set the scrolling/zoom rate to minimal in the settings. You will see super fast transition effect!
