lol no pressure dudes, but... seriously...

thanks for all ur efforts btw, idk if could have that much passion about something i'm doing for free for a bunch of ungratefull weiners. ಠ_ಠ
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mackster248:
Love your sig. Reminds me of the good ol days of G1 ROM's and the discovery of the super ROM that was superCSDI. No phone will ever beat the G1's development. :cool:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] aalsmadi1:
lol the funny part is when i was posting that comment i noticed my sig and noticed it was super outdated, i was about to change it, but i wont, to show off that i'm OG lol.

super csid was like zoro, spanish and weird, but it kicked ass and we loved it...

EDIT: sorry OP's for being off topic

RoyalGinger 1.5 info...

I've been running RoyalGinger 1.5 for most of the day already. I've noticed that it is slow and buggy compared to 1.4.1.... KIDDING! It's FAST!!!! Boot times are fast, the launcher is AMAZINGLY fast and the ROM is VERY stable. The themes are awesome and are applied at warp speed! I'm sure you folks are going to LOVE 1.5. Thanks chef for all of your time and hard work!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lanternslight456:
I had a question, CK mentioned this some time ago, that 1.5 was a side leg of 1.4.1 and that the 1.4 series would be continued alongside 1.5. 1.5 was 'for the people' and 1.4 is 'basic AOSP'

Will there be an update to the 1.4 series soon after 1.5 which is more stripped to AOSP, has something changed, or is 1.4.1 still the most up to date you can get with the base AOSP?

Hope the question makes sense, I'm not trying to ask for ETAs or anything, just wondering.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] DADDYDC650:
My best guess is that there is no 1.4+ in the works. 1.5 is similar to 1.4 but on steroids and better in every way.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lanternslight456:
Cool, I only asked because I remembered some time back when 1.5 was first mentioned that it was stated to be sort of a 'side project' sort of thing, good to hear that it's going to be a full upgrade, no wonder it's taken time, I'm really excited!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] DADDYDC650:
You should be excited.... it runs so fast that it'll be hard going back to another ROM after installing 1.5. If you want a very fast ROM with stability, look no further.

BTW, I forgot to add that 1.5 adds a new data/cache auto wipe feature! No need to wipe data/cache manually so just DL the ROM and install! Brilliant!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] KCS05DC:
1.5 is very fast, and there are just a few frustrating issues holding off the release. For the record though, you guys need to be hitting the thanks button for ckisgen. The amount of time he is putting into this thing is insane, so let him know you guys appreciate what hes doing.

And of course, standby for a very smooth RoyalGinger 1.5
[myTouch 4G Android Development] darinmc:
I will punch those issues in the face.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] DADDYDC650:
ckisgen has put in MASSIVE amount of hours into 1.5 so please everyone, hit the thanks button. Let him know how much his work means to us. Thanks chef ckisgen!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lanternslight456:
F*** bees... f*** bees, I would punch every bee in the face. I'm not getting killed by bees!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mackster248:
I like the stock GB launcher, but I always have apps missing from it. Like I know I have NBA gametime and angry birds Rio installed, but my launcher isn't showing it in the app drawer. I had to uninstall and reinstall gametime for it to show, but after a day it disappears again. So im forced to use adw ex. And who knows what other apps don't show. Anyone else have this problem?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jentzschman2000:
Much excited!

Thank you guys for all your hard work!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] altroy2:
Alright... who ever made this rom should be working for people like Gates etc. This is out of this world. And is this illegal??? It might be too fast :D
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lanternslight456:
What kernal version will 1.5 come with?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
The latest ;)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ckisgen:
just finished baking 2.4.6 kernel in ...thanks as always Faux for the sneak preview ..

now we've got the screen freeze deal solved AND the latest battery, LED, power, SPI master, MMC/SD, and USB dock drivers along with some even greater tweaks for battery savings.

the ROM is ready to go guys ... unfortunately royalknight had an urgent personal matter come up this afternoon / evening and he was not able to be home to update the OP and put the goods onto our server ... kinda worked out though cos it gave me an extra few hours to keep tweaking and also faux to hit me with the 3am advance kernel drop.

guys believe me when I say this thing BURNS.

thanks for hanging in there ... the feedback from the testers was filled with 'holy crap this thing is fast's and 'I gotta go change my pants's

Only way to explain all the effort is just saying wow this will ne my first time flashing this rom I'm very excited to see this in action
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Mexxicanbeauty:
Ohh I'm excited! Don't think I've ever been this excited for a Rom update release lol. Thank you for fulfilling my request for a pink theme! I would press the thanks button a million times but I'm on my phone!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lowandbehold:
So you said there is a full wipe script built in that will do a full wipe automatically. Will this wipe the SD card as well? I only ask since formatting the SD card is suggested.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ckisgen:
nope, but after some additional digging into this topic and subsequent experimenting myself I don't believe this is necessary. honestly I stopped doing it a little while back and as much as I flash and reflash different ROMs, have yet to see any impact. it certainly doesn't hurt and if it makes you feel fuzzy and / or tingly to do so - by all means, wipe away my friend.

but *thus far* I've flashed and reflashed this ROM in dozens of different flavors (different kernels, frameworks, aka changes that require real wipes) without manually wiping anything myself and probably 8 testers have also flashed this .. several more than one test build and many coming from other ROMs altogether without manually wiping and I haven't seen a single issue directly related to this so far. it definitely formats the entire system and data partitions of the phone (which includes both caches) and appears pretty air tight at this point.

it's not like it took a ton of effort to wipe everything manually before but I gotta say it sure has been nice to just hit the install from zip button and not even have to give another thought to the pre flash process.

No. That app is not complete.

BTW, I just rebooted my MT4G running RoyalGinger 1.5. It took 44 seconds to go from fully powered off and to my home screen!

The longer the wait, the better the ROM!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] powduh09:
Can't rush perfection
[myTouch 4G Android Development] xSunny:
Lmaoo no rushing im just hoping it comes out soon because this rom has been on ma phone to long i need a update! =] This is the longest ive had a rom on my phone
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ckisgen:
DADDYDC was correct .. he asked me about that last night.

I actually just now tried baking it in again to see if it worked any better this time but I took it back off within a few minutes.

First, it frequently displays no entries (blank) in the artist and/or song tabs .. until I rotate the phone or exit and come back in .. then if figures out what's there. It doesn't happen all the time but it happens a lot. This alone disqualifies it from this ROM for me ... I can't handle major system apps that don't function like they're supposed to.

Second, I had my live logcat running this time when I played with it and since this app is made for the upcoming / not release google music streaming service - it runs on boot and leaves a process that eats a little RAM (there's a media scanner process on the old/standard music app but it's impact on the system is null to unnoticable) .. it also looked like it was constantly polling the network to check for music/etc. from a server that's not allowing anything to come thru (obviously since it's not 'out' / live yet) so this would almost certainly over a period of time (hours/day/etc) leave to additional drain on the battery .. aaaaand we all know we can't have that !

so same old stock music player for now ... feel free to load the new one on yours though ... but I know it's not gonna be residing on my device until the service is up and even then it may end up being too much of a resource hog for me to want to use it ... we shall see

PS -

talked to RoyalKnight, he's still consumed right now with his personal matter and away from home / unavailable however him and I both wanted to get this update to you guys like yesterday

and since you guys have all been SO generous with your thanks buttons :D ... I think I'm gonna get option to help me out and we're gonna get this thing up for you here shortly ....

it's PROBABLY (i said probably) ok to initiate the final pants wetting countdown sequence ...

[myTouch 4G Android Development] ckisgen:
Royalknight - thanks again man. when you say you're gonna take scripts running at boot out - does that mean it's going to take the boot up time back down but also cut the speed of this thing? don't get too crazy over there de-awesome-izing this blazing fast ROM :D ... can't say I would hate a normal boot up time though (Jaywans Nexus S 2.1 had a super fast boot up time) .. and I can't say I really had any complaints about the speed of the Nexus S 2.1 so as long as it's still at least as fast or faster than that version - I think we'll all be good....then again there's no such thing as too fast, right? ;)

side note:

this ROM is the best ROM hands down currently out there for the Glacier IMHO ... and with it just being v1.0 (well, technically I'd say it's v2.2 based on Jaywans original Nexus S) I know there's likely still room for improvement! Even more so...I feel like with an udpated/revised kernel that's built for this thing - WHOA this thing is gonna be amazing. I remember what Faux123 did for my GorillaSense DHD ROM back on Froyo/Sense with his awesomeness he came up with on those kernels ... this thing with a kernel that has the newest HTC touch drivers, wifi, sound, BT, video drivers ... and battery/performance optimized ?? I'm already drooling just thinking about it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Royalknight6190:
RoyalGinger 1.1 is posted enjoy the new properly working Rom. Sorry about 1.0 but excellence doesnt come without a few mistakes. lol :D Make sure you read the OP and follow the steps to install.

Flash the Rom (RoyalGinger 1.1) boot into rom when asked to choose a selection choose the first choice. Log into Google Let everything download and install. Once you got the All apps have been restored Reboot into Recovery. Wipe Cache partition go to the advanced menu and wipe dalvik cache then flash one of the Kernels (both work awesome). Reboot into Rom and you should be golden.

If you have any questions feel free to ask.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ckisgen:
guys - if you wanna get high 'synthetic' benchmark scores - switch the gov to Interactive or Performance. smartass gov has never given high benchmark scores (it wasn't built to) however I seem to have consistently had the best overall experience with the smartass gov in terms of performance balanced with battery life. when these ROMs (especially this one) are dialed in right, I get ZERO lag on smartass even at stock 1gHz max.

lemme crank this baby up with setCPU and see what kind of scores I can get on Linpack and Quadrant.

but, really, I could give 2 flying flips about what 'magical number' those apps spit at me when my phone screams thru every task I can throw at it. sooooo smooth. mmmm...like Liquid.....nevermind, not gonna go there.

I flashed RoyalLiquid when it first dropped this morning and it stayed on my device for about 90 minutes before I had to flash back to this Nexus S port ... and I was one of the guys staying up all night dying for it to drop...drooling all over the youtube previews, etc.....but in the end, for me at least, it just really felt lacking in terms of depth and polish. there was very little you could do with it in terms of personalization and I got bored with it really fast. now to be fair - that ROM was a v1.0 and again...even though this ROM says v1.0 (because it was 'taken over' by TeamRoyal from Jaywan...who is also one of the main devs on said TeamRoyal) , this thing is an update on the existing Nexus S port, which was already on V2.1 prior to this update. So obviously, I'm guessing the Liquid Metal ROM has a ways it's going to go after some updates are polished into that thing ... but, I still think for me, after being spoiled by gingerbread (PLUS the awesome inclusion of the cm7 settings which go a REALLY long way) running the way it's supposed to on one of the (if not still currently, THE) best and fastest devices out there ... I think it's gonna be hard for anything else to live up to it..

I don't seem to have any issues with video playback ... though the only issue I had with Nexus S 2.1 was with my NHL gamecenter app when watching a live feed of a game .. it would get choppy and laggy .. but that seems to be fixed on this release :D

yayyy
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ckisgen:
Royalknight - can you check my post #103 above? is v1.1 going to have a performance hit from v1.0?

do you have a recommendation for those of us (namely, ME lol) who's v1.0 are working fine in regards to whether to update to v1.1? aka - are there other under the hood type updates from v1.0 that would make it worth having? or is the ONLY notable change that the boot time has decreased a couple mins (presumably with some speed hit like you first talked about in the Nexus S 2.1 thread)?

obviously I know you made the change to another kernel...but since that's just so other people can flash back over to the kernel I'm running already anyway without issue - this isn't much of a consideration for me right now.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] faux123:
I just tried the NHL app on CM7 Nightly 12 with my new kernel and it's smooth as silk no problem here either.... Ugh... now I am curious about my Sense Kernel... :(
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Royalknight6190:
First of ckisgen I want to say thanks for being the goto guy on this Rom and spending a good portion of the day helping people out and trying to fix issues. That rocks in my book.

V1.1 is like you said I removed the Kernel from the Rom cause it looked like it was causing issue for people at initial flash and so you would have to flash the kernel again. I also removed 2 scripts that caused the boot time to be drastically shorter, truly the boot time is like it was with the old Nexus S build. But I took a few extra optimizing steps before I uploaded it to you guys so 1.1 wont see that much of a difference in speed decrease. you probably wont see any decrease in speed. But because I didnt have the proper amount of time to work on it tonight I made the Kernels a 2nd flash so you have that added flash that you have to do. But 1.1 is fast and the boot time is short. If your phone is working were you want it to be I would say leave it and wait till I do something else with this Rom to make it even better. I got big plans for this Rom.

TeamRoyal wants to keep the Dev section alive for the 4G so we will keep deving.
