[ROM][MikRoms] Optimized Shift! v2.59 (11/08) (Back and better than ever!) - Droid Incredible Android Development

Optimized Shift!​
HUGE props to aamikam for MikG (which Optimized Shift is based from)!
Another big thanks to Jermaine151 for pointing out a fix for my dhcp bug!
So, without any further adieu, here it is!
Based on HTC Speedy (Evo Shift 4G) gingerbread RUU, tweaked, modded, and slimmed to provide a clean, smooth, and unique experience like no other. This new version kicks ass, trust me.

I loved Opt Shift 2.4, can't wait to try this new one out!

It seems like everytime I say to myself "OKAY, I'm gonna stick to this rom!" another favorite rom of mine gets updated and I want to try it out.
I'm without hope!
I'll check this out later

Sweet!
Please lengthen your message to at least 10 charters

Suh-weet! Much appreciated Wd, I'll give this a go later tonight.

Wd,
thanks for the update! this rom always runs super smooth on my dinc! downloading now!!

Is there a recent app removal mod for the pulldown. It's kinda redundant since all you gotta do is hold the home button. When I flash landscape mod it uses a lot of room when I'm in landscape. Any info would be helpful, thanks for the sweet update.
Oh yeah, I did also notice, there are still Sprint remnants in the ROM. WiFi stuff and 4G toggle, etc.

Running smooth and fast here! Similar to pure speed v8.5, that's a good thing

i'm having trouble connecting to my wifi network. during setup i couldn't connect so i bypassed and completed setup. after setting up my google account i when to the wireless setup and tried again. i put in my password and it gets an ip address but then immediately drops it and tries again. looking at my router i see it grab an address and then disappear.
i have never encounter this problem with any previous opt shift roms or any of the other ones i've tried. any ideas?
thanks.

+1. Tried reloading the rom even downloaded it again and tried it but still was unable to get an IP address from my router. Tried a second router I have just to see if it was just that router and it wouldn't connect to that one either. Have never had this problem with any other rom including the previous releases of OShift.

I am having the same problem. I superwiped and all that first....have tried twice. WiFi simply will not connect.
Thanks for the work on this though!!!!!

WiFi is probably broken due to using the kernel from the new leak. It seems to cause problems on anything but the stock ROM.

Hey Inc,
What is the size on this build? Is it 240x320?
So far it doesn't work with 240x320 sd install trying 320x480 now
I still got the wake up messages android won't boot
same
having the same boot loop issues as everyone else says something bout the volume this build looks good tho incubus
Pretty sure this is a kernel issue, waiting for a update.
Is it possible to use the new kernel that has the task switcher modification? Having the task switcher active after the camera button is held down for 1.5 seconds would be a great feature.
I hate to jump on the band wagon by saying me too but
Me too. I have tried on ext, sd and nand and it just dont work at teh moment. I flashed the nbh file and stilll nothing. I loe your work BTW and i will use this one untill the expresso build comes out when this one works.

Thanks your work ethic speaks louder than your work and both are excellent
Ok Guys, It should be fixed now. You will have to redownload and use the new instructions. Sorry for the problem. I know its a pain to have to start over.
Are you kidding, you're sorry? We're sorry you have to put up with such insignificant people as us! I just installed it, I'm hoping it'll boot. It's taking a while.
hey inc
I just installed Myn's update. like you said it is a pain starting all over especially after getting it just right. my question is Myn's warm donut is stable, and i know you guys work together so would you say this is better or worse as far as being stable, responsiveness? better or worse is the wrong words to use because you guys are so good at what you do, but since you 2 work together im sure you or him would acknowledge the better man.
So far so good, minor nitpicks but seems like a good progression build from msmissions 2.1.
The one issue that's standing out in my head is the SD card mounting. I tried to just plug in, drive / sdcard was not showing in my windows explorer. The wierd part is when I disconnect the USB cable for a split second the drive shows up in explorer. I installed dualmountSDwidget.apk and used that to communicate with my computer over USB, was still a tad buggy but I managed to get it working.
Also.... get rid of voice search, it force closes with your recommended .nbh / kernel, even if it didn't its hardly a feature that should be concentrated upon as well as wasting our phones limited resources (cpu /mem). I am aware that dzo's 4/8 kernel is the reason its force closing and it will prob be fixed when he gets back from vacation.
Overall I am happy with the speed and responsiveness. Nice bundled software / widgets as well, saves me a few MB of downloading. Just my initial impressions so far, will repost once this build settles down and I use it daily.
Do you guys have a IRC channel set up or anything? 1st off I want to learn more about the inner working of this project, 2nd I think it would help to steer everyone in the same direction with builds. I also remember seeing a bit of information on porting the vogues sound and bluetooth drivers to ALSA, presumably making it immune to changes that happen as android matures. These forums while great take a bit of sifting around the "will this work on kiser's" or other random questions that take time off the focus of the project.
what image size should i use
Does anyone know where the Gmail app is for this build? I can't seem to find it. Thanks.

Change Log​
Features V.05​Build 25
-added optional dBm text display which will replace your signal bars
-added hide nav bar option (it will not work on devices that don't support a nav bar by default. more stability fixes for those devices later)
-added warning to weather when no location can be found
-added trackball alert
-torch code improvements
-small airplane mode visiblity improvement
Updates from Build 24
-Added lockscreen wallpapers
It seems that there is an interesting bug with Lockscreen wallpapers. Every once in a blue moon, your device may do a 'soft-reboot'. I can go into the technical details of why this happens, but basically it comes down to displaying a large 'picture' and Java/Android not correctly cleaning up the references to it, thus creating a memory leak. This is extremely rare it happens, and I've only noticed it happen while the device is NOT being used. If you're concerned, please just remove the lockscreen wallpaper and it will never happen to you. I'm trying to find a way to make this 100% stable.
-Added torch toggle to power menu
-Added airplane mode toggle to power menu
-Added 'about' page in ROM Control
-Added new LCD density wizard to help keep your device from being 'not supported' by certain market apps

Camera
Known issues:
1) Colors in the panorama picture may not be the same as what you see in viewfinder.
2) Sometimes screen has some garbage while in Panorama mode viewfinder. Quitting completely from the app and restart or invoking Gallery from inside the app and returning back to camera app should mostly fix it.
3) barcode scanner does not work.

After you install Rom for the 1st time, skip setting up google account. You can set it up under Settings/Accounts & Sync/Add.

No time to flash for now but please post how ppl think it works. Love the customizing available.
FYI Been using the attached Tiamat Kernel on the ICS version I'm using for a week or so now... my phone has always liked Tiamat kernels better and it's made ICS that much better for me...

Wow this is sick! Best ICS ROM for the Inc yet.
Tried it. Love the panoramic cam. I did change the launcher, thought the Apex was choppy but maybe it's just me. Love the fact I have my battery level in % again!
This rom is easily my favorite at the moment, thank you so much!

Important Info
PHP:
*Please note that this is my current setup that I am sharing.
*Keep all silly comments to yourself.
*If you want to start drama pm me or add me on google hangouts
([email protected]) although you will be forever ignored.
*This rom is not meant to be a fully "custom" rom. It stays true to the original
Sense in terms of color, icons and layouts.
*If this rom is not for you there are always other roms to flash, and if you dont
like me, it does make me sleep better at nights,
*because it's good to know that im on your mind and making an impact in your life.
*I am not a part of any deving group and I will never be. I will never apply for
dev status,
*I will never consider myself a dev, since i have never coded a rom scratch.
*So lets thank Google and HTC for giving us this open source software to edit to
our liking.
*Leave the entitlement attitude out of my thread. You are not paying me to dev
and you havent bought any Roms from me. If you break your phone it is your
own fault as i have flashed everything I put out. You are not a paying customer,
and if I decide not to help or answer you it is my right to do so.
If you like this ROM let it be known!!

try to do a full reboot. the script should kick in then
if that doesnt work here is a temp fix
download script manager and run this script
extract and copy the attached script to your sd card, run the script using script manager with root enabled. you only need to run it once and it will survive reboots
gonna fully remove it from the next build

As long as it's from the same base you'll probably be fine.
I do it all the time and rarely ever an issue. Once in a great while an app might need a clear data or clear defaults. But I always do a backup just in case.
What ROM are you coming from?
Doing full Data Restore can be worse than just dirty flashing.
If you see things like Partition changes etc. then I would say wipe it.
sweet jellybean Thanks! Been looking forward to stock w/goodies since i moved on from the evo lte
in on first page of an epic thread 400+pages long.
thank you thank you thank for joining us!!
This looks like what I'm looking for in a rom. Basically stock without unnecessary theaming, useful mods and slimed down. Good stuff dude
Edit: I read through the OP changeling and didn't see the silence camera mod. Do you think you can include that in the future?

[DIY] Making The Most Of A Locked Bootloader [LT30p]

I was going to make a ROM for y’all but my kitchens a mess and the cookers not working
I would have called it something like XTassy :laugh: ​
THIS IS NOT A GUIDE
Its a record of the changes that I have made to a perfectly good ROM.... So that it better suits my needs.
Everything here has the potential to break your phone and make it smell like fish.
If this happens you should PM me immediately so I can laugh at you
I'm always interested to know if there's a better way of doing something
and perhaps you might find something here that's useful to you​
My Model: Xperia T - LT30P
Bootloader: Locked (Theres no reason why this stuff shouldn't work on an unlocked bootloader)
Carrier: Three (Yea they did it.... Gits)

Post 9: Things Im Currently Working On / Would Like To Change
The Core
My stock rom was non-updateable, overheated, and I was able to kill a full battery in less than 3 hours.
I did an antutu stability test and it was all over the shop.
After trying out loads of stock and custom roms the one that had the highest benchmark
and was the most stable for me (according to antutu) was TiMiN8R's XperimenT
What I like about TiMiN8R's Rom? XperimenT 3.1.1
. Phone no longer overheats
. Battery Life has improved
. Its pre rooted
. Installs ClockWorkMod
. Has smaller on screen buttons (the black bar at the bottom)
. Comes with a file manager (why no stock roms have this?)
. He’s changed the menu background and it works for me
. Has a better battery icon with percentage
. Has a reboot option when powering down (ohhh that’s bliss)
. Has the older google maps with a blue arrow launcher for navigation (I really missed that! but can be updated according to preference)
. Has some fancy customizable toggles on the notification bar
Antutu Benchmark v4.0.1 score was 16892 Without an SD Card
That’s a massive portion of the hard work done. Cant thank him (and all persons involved) enough for making my phone usable. :good:
Before flashing the ROM I backed up my apps to my internal storage with Android Assistant
Pebble Dash Removal
My goal here is to rip out everything I can. My old phones Rom (x10 mini pro)
was 100mb in size, with all my apps installed and it did everything I wanted it to.
The way I see it... everything past 100mb must be battery draining, spyware, adverts and pebble dash.
Apologies to the the people that put time and effort into the apps I just called pebble dash
​
TiMiN8R has already removed a fair amount of bloatware from this rom. But as hes made it available for the majority im sure he didn’t want to remove apps that people might want.
Note! I will be removing the default keyboard and home screen (as far as I can tell it doesn’t have landscape mode)
If you decide to do this YOU MUST FIRST INSTALL REPLACEMENTS. I use the keyboard from gingerbread
& Launcher Pro as my home-screen. (Go Launcher seems popular but iv never tried it)
Ill also be removing all themes and lots of things you might miss... like the walkman, nfc, bluetooth, backup software.
Be aware that removing an application will affect others that depend on it... for example removing “live wallpaper picker”
will make ALL live wallpapers unuseable and you wont be able to use any live wallpapers that you get from the play store in future.
To do this I used root uninstaller
The safest way to do this is to enter ClockWorkMod by pressing the volume down but 2 or 3 times when you first turn your phone on and make a back up (of your entire setup) remove a few applications at a time... check everything still works. And repeat the process. If something goes wrong.... do a restore and start over. Its not advised to try and uninstall them all in one go
Current total of installed APK's 223 afterwards 126
<----- data use before and after
Here’s the list of apks that I was able to remove from this rom without errors or crashes (after a reboot)
in the order they appear in root uninstaller
About PlayStation Certified 1.0 (just a notice in the setting menu?)

Step 2
After removing all those apks I use a file browser to navigate to
/ > system > framework
and remove any .jar files that relate to the apks that I just uninstalled
like Bluetooth, NFC, Facebook, Music, Music Visualizer ect.ect.
Then I go to my settings and change the ringtone to PYXIS
This is the only pre installed ringtone I want to keep
Its no good dropping beats in a room full of suits so I use this tone when im at work to keep things professional
Then I go to / > system > media > audio > ringtones and delete all but pyixs
and paste my own .ogg ringtones (ill attach some of the ringtones I made to post 8)
I do the same for alarms and notifications
first set the ones that I use then delete the rest and paste my own
/ > system > media > audio >alarms
/ > system > media > audio >notifications
I don't like to use ringtones from sd card/storage locations because if I were to accidentally delete them maybe my alarm wont go off in the morning Not a risk I wanna take lol
why I removed the lockscreen and all themes / theme manager?
I removed every single theme & theme manager
so now instead of my phone looking like this
it looks like this!
iv made a dreadful mistake :crying:
I also removed the lock screen 1.0 app which reverted the lock screen to basic jb
lets add a wallpaper
and change it to pin
Much better! (settings > security > screen lock > pin)
Dont panic the music widget still works
I also like to add: If Found Please Call - 07MYMUMMY505
To the lock screen Found in settings > security > owner info
(you have to enter the pin when connecting the phone to a usb cable)
One thing I miss from cyanogen mod was "skip on security" meaning you don't have to press ok when you enter the correct pin. id also like to remove the grey and maybe make it more transparent (Dam locked bootloader) that's something ill have to come back to tho (think it would involve decompileing the system UI)
Silent Camera Hack
Be aware this may be illegal where you live and Don't go using it for "up skirts"
I don't like my camera to make a noise, with some snaps its best to be discreet..... after all this is the James bond phone
This phone was surprisingly easy to mute my other Xperias were a pain in the backside
/ > system > media > audio > camera > sound0
there's a file there called no_sound.m4a (how convenient)
I copied this and pasted it 3 times into this location / > system > media > audio > camera > sound1
Then Deleted: shutter.m4a , start_rec.m4a & stop_rec.m4a
and renamed the 3 no_sound.m4a files to shutter.m4a , start_rec.m4a & stop_rec.m4a
the same can be done with the files in / > system > media > audio > camera > common
(or see attached files)
Advert Removal
I cant stand adverts especially the ones that take up half the screen.
for the last 3-4 years iv been using an app called AdFree by Bigtincan
Its awesome just set it up and forget about it. no More annoying flashing google ads taking up half the screen
Unfortunately it keeps getting banned from the google play store (cant think why )
Here is their homepage http://www.bigtincan.com/en/
Here is their download page http://www.bigtincan.com/adfree/ (that no longer works)
And attached to this post is a little bit of love in the form of an apk
Select > Boot Normally > Skip Registration > Download & Install Hosts
If you use launcher pro you can hide the app from the app drawer
If you use the FireFox web browser there's an add-on called Adblock plus (also a version for the desktop firefox) that removes all adverts from all webpages including youtube videos (you know the ones that make you watch adverts about tampons for 15 seconds)
<<<< [BEFORE] [SETTINGS] [AFTER]
Security
Have you ever read some of the permissions that apps request when you install them?
Why the hell random apps want to read my text messages and contacts I don't know
Iv tried changing permissions and it just caused problems.... so heres what I do
I install this app Android Firewall
and I white list the apps that I want to be able to access the internet
(make sure you enable the firewall as well)

I don't use any kind of anti virus software for these reasons:
Android is based on Linux
I have an arsenal of hacking software they complain about every 5 minuets
They send reports of whats on your phone for "analysis"
Apps I Use And recommend
Seen as this thread was titled Making The Most Of A Locked Bootloader ill start with a big one
Cpu Manager and Saver Pro
It limits the cpu when when your not using the phone (when the screen is off) and restores it when you are using it (when the screen is on)
Iv only found out about it recently but it seems to be working as it should. We have 1.5gz CPU so we don't need to overclock.
But underclocking! Anything we can do to save the battery is a god send :victory:
Launcher Pro (cannot resize widgets with free version)
I keep banging on about it... this is the home screen I use.
I cant really show you it coz.... you cant see it... its more how it works and what it dose
Landscape Mode
Massively customizable
Can easily hide / show apps from the app drawer
App-drawer scrolls parallel (in one slide rather than separate panels)
Has Counters for Missed Calls,Emails,Texts
182,430+ 5 Star ratings
Well worth checking out.
Digitally Imported - Internet Radio
www.di.fm is the homepage for my laptop (they recently updated it looks mint)
Been listening to di.fm for a good 8 years, my fav channel is progressive and there's many more
Need to make an account to use the app but its free
Jota Text Editor
Simple .txt editor, love the dark background
Gingerbread keyboard
From Android 2.3
after installing go to > settings > language and input > and set as default
I Like to disable word suggestions, dictionary, and auto correct
I cant get on with any other keyboard.... very happy to get this back
Tiny Flashlight
The reason I like this one over all others is because there's an option to have the light come on when the app is opened
This is super useful when remapping buttons to launch the light on a long press
I have an unlocked bootloader, so this guide isn't necessary for me. But, if I didn't, I would find this a Godsend. You are awesome sir, great work.
Some Ringtones I Made
I made these with acid pro
Iv converted them from stereo mp3 to mono ogg (Default ringtones were in ogg format I assume there's a reason for it)
and tweaked the volume to as loud as I could without it distorting (on my phone)
It only takes me 2 minuets to do this so im more than happy to do requests and id be interested in what you think would make a good ringtone.
Chaos Theory.ogg Ringtone (by conspiracy)
Tone starts at 2.34 in this vid
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PRbA9ltKX4
Blue Anthem.ogg Ringtone (by plus system)
Tone starts at about 33 seconds into this vid
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwDGUuUn888
Things Im Currently Working On / Would Like To Change
I want to stop the volume keys from changing the Ringtone volume (I want that on max all the time)
and remap them to open apps on long press (calculator and torch)
Without affecting media volume functions
change the pin lock screen to skip on security
meaning you don't have to press ok when you enter the correct pin
while I was testing roms I found a cyanogen mod variant by peetr that worked with my locked bootloader
ill paste the link here when i find it >>>>>>>>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2240485&highlight=hybrid
id like to pinch the dialer, messenger, calculator and contacts apks from it but.... im not sure if it would be that simple and haven't the time right now

This can be achieved with some theming as you suggest, and does not require an unlocked bootloader.

When the screen is off your phone should automatically go into "deep sleep" which has the minimum cpu setting already applied so need to use this for that.
When your phone is on it is safe to have the cpu at stock speeds. However, if you do need to conserve battery (As I sometimes do when away on expedition) I do lower clock speeds but I am not sure this can be done without a custom kernel.
It definitely cannot be done to overclock without the unlocked bootloader, but I am still unsure if you can under clock without it. The app may report its set, but you need setcpu (Or some other app) to check which frequencies your phone has been running at. It may work, but I have never tried it with a stock kernel.
Nice thread mate, and thanks for the creds :good:
Maybe not a real guide (yet) but definitely some great pointers for other users looking to modify their ROM.
Too bad you can't get the kitchen set up right, there's probably some people around here who'd like to see it as a full-on ROM.
Like the name XTassy!
@gregbradley I tried CU Saver and kept an eye on the clocks with CPU Spy. Maxed the clock at 1242MHz and according to CPU Spy it never went over so seems to work well. Mind you, it also works with screen on, not just screen off!
Cheers for testing that, was it done on a stock kernel though

Yes stock kernel, locked bootloader.

I even changed active CPU Governor with No-frills CPU on stock fw.
Anyone know of some working performance tweaks like this? Any governor better than stock? Any magic script boosting Android like (in) famous Supercharger etc? That's kind of the modifications most users with locked bootloader will surely find interesting.
I didnt know people had replied! Guess I didnt subscribe to the thread lol. ill ad more to this tonight. Iv had a little bug (i think with cpu saver) screen would turn itself off right after wake up it did it over and over till i rebooted. But hasnt happend since. Other than that underclock seems to work fine

My phone got so hot it was on the verge of burning me and I was worried it was going to damage itself.
and that's just with everyday tasks like sending texts and web browsing
Do you have this apk installed?......... Overheat control 1.0
I noticed that after I flashed Tims rom..... not had a problem since and it barley even gets warm

XDA:DevDB Information
[ROM] iHackers [MIUI v5], a ROM for the Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300
Contributors
iHackers, Sumedha Kapoor
ROM OS Version: 4.1.x Jelly Bean
ROM Kernel: Linux 3.0.x
Version Information
Status: Testing
Current Beta Version: v1.4
Beta Release Date: 2013-11-8
Created 2013-10-16
Last Updated 2013-12-14
Version Details:
Aroma Version:​
Its the Big Daddy of all the other versions and the most ideal version to install for a person who knows what he is doing. It contains almost everything MIUI has to provide along with all the other Modifications, Tweaks, Fixes, Addons, Applications, Kernels, Recoveries, Mods, Bootanimations, Glass Apps, Google Apps, Bloatware Removal Script etc. The main thing that makes the Aroma Version perfect is that everything in the Installer is optional for the user to install, He/She can either install everything or nothing for a clean install. It gives you complete freedom to configure the ROM and your Device exactly the way you like.​
Stripped Version:​
Stripped Version should be chosen by those who simply don't want to download the whole Aroma Package everytime a new version is released either because they have low download bandwidth or they are using Addons Pack to get the missing features from the Aroma Version. The Stripped Version contains All the Modifications, Tweaks, Bootanimations, Fixes but one Kernel and No Glass Apps or other Google Apps. It does not have any undervolting script pre installed but all the Bloatware is already removed from it. Its simply the Aroma Version without all the optional stuff in it. If someone wants to install something from the Aroma Version He/She should download the Addons Pack and if someone wants any of the deleted apps that were deleted while the Bloatware Removal, He/She can get them from the Official Port or from Aroma Version or from any of the previous releases that he has already downloaded and can extract the apps from.​
Minimal Version:​
Minimal Version is a new version which has been specially optimized keeping the following things in consideration:
Lowest Possible Size
Battery Friendly
More and More Free RAM
All the Possible Bloatware Removed
No Additional Apps (Except the Most Required ones)
Optimized for best Performance, Speed and Smoothness
Etc ++
The Minimal Version contains All the Modifications, Tweaks, Fixes but Only one Kernel and Bootanimation, No Glass Apps and No Google Apps either. It does not have any undervolting script pre installed but all the Bloatware is already removed from it. If someone wants to install something from the Aroma Version He/She should download the Addons Pack and if someone wants any of the deleted apps that were deleted while the Bloatware Removal, He/She can get them from the Official Port or from Aroma Version.
This Version is Ideal for those who like a very very clean Install and like to customize and add everything exactly What and How they want. The only things left out in the Minimal Version are the Core Apps without which you would loose the entire feel of MIUI and without them there would be no pleasure in installing it.​
Addons Pack:​
The Addons Pack has everything in the Aroma Version except the ROM itself. It is being provided for Stripped, Minimal and Official Versions because they do not have anything from Aroma Version included in them. So, In case if someone wants to install something from Aroma Version, He/She should use the Addons Pack and as its based on Aroma to, so naturally He/She will have all the options with what to install and what not. This Pack will not only work with my ROM, or any other MIUI ROM alone, it will work with all other ROMs too (Ofcourse, The ones that support the Included Kernels).​

Notes:
This ROM is for Unlocked Bootloaders Only.
Work on This ROM is Currently In Progress, You will see further Improvements as the ROM moves in its further Development Stages. This ROM is originally built by MIUI China Team and All the credits go to them.
In Case You Face Proximity Sensor Issues, Follow these two steps. Step 1: Install and configure Proximity Sensor Calibration from Market. Step 2: Install and configure Tasker / Automateit Pro / Proximity Screen Off Pro. Let me know if you can't get the apps.
In Case You Face Brightness Issues, use Disable Auto Brightness or Velis AutoBrightness App.
In Case You are Unable to Install the ROM, Whether the Aroma Installer finishes in a flash back, or It does not start at all or Unable to Mount System or Data, Follow these Steps: Verify the MD5 Hash of your file with the one listed on the Version's Download Page and in case it does not match, Download a New File of your Desired Version. Then Copy it to External SD Card, Flash Philz Recovery and Flash the ROM using that recovery.
If Anyone Have Problems With WIFI Region Code, Download WifiManager, Install it and Give it Root Permissions.
Please Do Mention all the Bugs and the Problems you face During the Installation Process or after the ROM has been installed. This will help me to improve and make it better with next releases. I would also like to request you to share your experience after using this ROM, Your Suggestions for the Improvement of the ROM will be greatly appreciated. Also If you feel that I should Include/Exclude any App/Mod/Tweak in the ROM, Let me know.
Choose Undervolting Wisely, It can cause random reboot issues, If thats not an issue for you then undervolting could be the best thing you would do for improving your phone's battery life.
Bloatware Removal is only suggested for the users who face RAM issues with this ROM, Don't just select all of them altogether first consider knowing what the apps that you are removing are actually for and whether it would be beneficial or harmful or problematic to remove them. Per App Details are mentioned in the Aroma Installer.

Sure, Whenever you feel like it. Its late here too. I am always hungry for a detailed review. This is the initial release, So, I did not go for any big changes in this release. I don't own an Galaxy S III but lot of users have been requesting me for very long to make this for their device. I developed this ROM originally for Xperia S, I just added some of the stuff from that ROM and made this build. Lets see how everything works out. I will dive in for bigger changes and improvements once I get some detailed reviews/reports on, Whats working and whats not, What should be Added / Improved / Removed, What are the major issues associated with this ROM and Detailed Reports on Performance, Speed, Smoothness, Responsiveness, Fluidity and Overall Quality. So, Just let me know whenever you can enlighten me with these things.
i was waiting for this rom

Nice ROM. Any chance to have the option to block ringer volume increase/decrease with the hardware volume buttons? Most people I know only really use the volume buttons for media volume anyway. The Galaxy S3 is notorious for bumping the volume buttons when pressing the power button on the opposite side. Its a great feature with the 4.3 ROM's, saves you from silent mode being deactivated by accident. I much prefer 4.1.2 ROM, though, due to better stability with my Bluetooth ERA headset. I will use this ROM and let you know how it fairs. Good job!
What about android version and based build ROM?

I am glad that you feel this way. I am sure users will love this ROM. This is only an initial beta release though, You will bigger and better improvements in the coming releases when I am well informed with what users exactly want their ROM to be like. So, Whenever you install the ROM, take it to roughest and longest test drive and let me know what you feel about it and what can be done to make it even better.

Its based upon JB 4.1.1 and I chose that because some users requested me to as they didn't want to loose the features from the Stock ROM and break a few features like FM Radio (Which is usually the case in CM based ROMs). Well, this is the initial release, I will go on with porting MIUI on JB 4.1.2 or maybe JB 4.2.2 when a stable stock build is available later on. If you guys want me to make another CM based ROM then let me know. Stock Based or CM Based its your choice, I am good with both, Its upto you guys to choose which one you want.

It will be very easy to port that feature on a CM based ROM, I will see if it could be done as easily in this one too. Sure, Give it a try and let me know what you feel. Great suggestion by the way. Let me know if you have more.

Had a bit of trouble getting it to download but now that I'm trying to install it's getting stuck on 0.0% install saying to be patient. Could my download be the problem or is it the installer? Full SD wipe and format. Phone getting hot after 15 mins of no progress. Tried 3 times no success.

no wipe needed? ( I`am on miuiandroid)
I have tested a couple of MIUI ROMS but this one is the best by far.
The only deal breaker for me is that it sadly lacks the Swedish language.
The ROM is fluently without the lag when scrolling through home screens that many of MIUI roms suffer from.
Phone settings are snappy and quick.
The Iphone7 lock screen is a bit buggy in my opinion, it is hard to slide it up and then get rid of it
It would be great if this ROM could be based on Sammy stock so that we could get some of the Sammy features.
Tnx !! job well done !

Sir if you can make the other release based on stock 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 Rom then it would be better & we will get all stock features & apps compatibility without any problem. But on cm base most features are missing & incompatible.
i love new development project and as a matter of fact sir i will be making a video on all the features with this rom and i will post the link very soon...give me 5 days time and hopefully i shall come up with a good video for your rom....downloading now btw
Have a great day sir
Hello,
if you make a 4.3 CM based ROM, i will test it, i don't need fm radio.
Thanks for your work

Please do the 3 wipes..it only takes 3 s-5 secs in total and will save a lot of time by preventing bootloop
Cheers
