[ROM][22/07]- Wild Ginger – Gingerbread 2.3.4 AOSP – [DISCONTINUED]

This ROM is DISCONTINUED
I am sorry to say I don't find the time to further develop this ROM, if anyone wants to continue this ROM please do so. Just pm me and it's fine. Thanks for using this ROM and for your feedback. Maybe in the future I will begin a new ROM project. For now I am only developping a ROM Download Manager for the desktop, keep an eye on the portal .
Go check it out for screenshots and download :

i`ll give a chance this evening ... looks nice

I have been using this ROM for the last hour or so. I did a backup, clean wipe and fresh flash. I have let the new ROM settle and have done a manual reeboot also.
I am a humble end-user and not a dev but thought that I would give a breakdown of some of my first impressions and observations.
I like the boot annimation alot, I also like the lock screen. Both look clean.
I like the orange font used in the status bar and the pull down menu although the "Wild Ginger" wording in the drop down menu is very blury and looks ugly.
The window transistions are smooth as you like but don't feel snappy quick.
I think the new honeycomb launcher is a nice touch but doesn't seem as intuative as the regular launchers such as ADW; maybe it's because I'm not used to honeycomb yet.
My main gripe about the Honeycomb launcher is that it force closes ALL the time. I have been trying to remove the Google search bar widget that is pre-loaded on screen after first boot and it is impossible (and the widgets aren't even locked to desktop). Also I can't ADD any additional widgets - you can select a widget to add but nothing happens!
From the main screen, waiting for the menu to appear takes about 5seconds which is an age. The "Personalise Honeycomb" menu doesn't fit the whole screen and you can see thick band of the desktop down the right of the screen which is ugly.Once in the preferences menu it isn't at all clear what you are meant to do... You can see the "Apply Settings" button but it took me tapping about the rest of the screen to finally make the actual preferance choices appear.
I have tested inbound and outbound calls and wifi both work as standard. The music player has nice interface, camera works and stock browser is fine. I don't like the dark blue highlight that appears when you press on an app icon it looks clumsy.
The numbers 1,2 and 3 are almost cut in half in the dialer and the green phone "call" icon doesn't seem to fit in it's area neatly.
I like H4oxer's work on this ROM and I hope it continues to get better but with these quite apparent bugs I will respectfully wait for an update before I continue to use this ROM.
Good Work tho!

so ...
good review above .... absolutelly uselless to say more ... 100% same opinions as you EDD ! keep going h4oxer !!!

Thanks guys I really appreciate your feedback ! Will work on it!

from his blog - "Used the froyo libcamera.so library to use the camera app, capturing video still gives force closes."
I guess not

No it doesn't work..still looking into that...has something to do with gpu that we don't have!

tried to flash but no luck stuck at splash screen,did wipe,factory reset,dalvik...how long was first boot for you guys?

You'll have to wait 5-10 minutes... leave it for 10 minutes on first boot..

why I cant see any progres in progres bar in recovery,says instaling update ...
(now no progres of writing files) and afther just 10-15 sec instal complete,is this normal? usualy can see progres and takes a bit longer

Yes it's normal, I didn't payed attention at the progressbar while writing the updater file , but it works don't worry. It installs fast because it had not much apps on board. Just the essential.

10min past stil on my splash screen.no boot animatio yet

Wierd. This ROM is working fine for me. Did you wipe /data and /cache?

yes did everything...dont know simple not booting,stucked on splash screen not even bootanimation

OK....first impressions are good. Startup in less than 4 minutes. Looking good. Everything is working out of the box, no force closing or similar problems. Nice themes, Market app is interesting
LCD density set to 115 and dialpad and everything else looks good
need to be done
- icons in status bar - phone signal at least
- trackpad wakeup
- sound on lock/unlock
- 6x5 icons is too much... 4x5 would be better in my opinion
- Home screen - same as above
- when LCD density changed no way to add widgets or apps to home screen
all in all very good rom, but need a little bit of fixing

Totally agree with u.
I hope that in next version it will have trackpad & volumes wakeup to ... protect our Wildfires' poor Power Buttons

Battery Drain
Hi,
I have some issues concerning the battery drain. As I dont use the cellular connections, I turned on flight mode and enabled WiFi manually. I also setup the WiFi to turn off while the Tablet is in StandBy. Still I an loosing about 1% battery per hour. Within the old 4.1.2 ROM, this was far better. I just wanted to check if others experience the same and this is normal with KitKat or if there is some setting which ensures an improved behavior within deepsleep (asuming that my device will go into deepsleep,didnt check).
Thanks for all the answers and a big thank to all the guys behind this rom. I really like it!!

KitKat for our device is not a really good build compared to JB. I suggest you to try Ultra Power Saving Mode to reduce the drain caused by other apps and system services.

Yeah, I guess I could do that, but the ultra power saving mode has a gray scale theme and also only a limited number of apps which can be used. Thats like buying a BMW and then replacing the enginge and putting in pedals instead.
My guess is, that the device does not properly enter deep sleep. Within deep sleep, the device should not waste more than 1%-2% overnight.
How can I check if the device enters deep sleep?

I meant that you can do this to reduce the drain when you don't use the tablet. Anyway download CPU spy and check deep sleep. I suggest you to use greenify to freeze background services and improve deep sleep time.

According to cpu spy deepsleep has never been used. Is this a kernel issue? Is there any way i can activate deepsleep, mayby with an exposed module or app?

I also thought about a wakelock. Well greenify tells me that there are no bg processes to be stopped. I also used 'ds battery saver', which worked well on my i9001 and should force the device to go into deepslepp, which did not work.
I will have a look at this tomorrow. I guess i can use adb to check the wakelock (suggestions welcome

not my strong suit (I'm just a tinkerer, absolutely NO programming skilz).
Good luck and please keep me up to date, and I will look into it myself and compare to my stock build.

Hallo @smegg, which one is more stable, this rom or N8020XXUDNE4 v2.01?

Since Lollipop is out and everyone is eager to know how it is well here is my quick review to Lollipop (Customised US version)
Well it feels great very great ! and very fast !
The animations are fluid
New Features such as Ultra Stamina Mode
Album art in lockscreen when playing music
Multi User
Move2Sd
Smart Unlock
Bravia Engine seems better
Smart notification (When Someone calls you the answer screen won't be full screen instead it is a notification at the top if you are using the phone )
Boot Animation sound
Powered by android line
Take Screenshot from power menu
Pause while recording video
Sound photo
Front Camera face recognition
But there are some minor annoyances
Such as
1- Icons are too big
2- Clock Widget is too small
3-Smart Unlock voice isn't working as it should
4-No X-Loud
5- Close all button is ugly
6-Notification bar looks ugly if the app wasn't designed to use the API

First impressions of LP
Last night I flashed US c5502 fw on my phone.
The first boot took longer than expected and phone got very hot. I could no hold it in hand.
So I kept it as it is without going through initial setup. Phone battery was 49%
Today morning when I checked the battery was at 49% ( surprised and shocked )
I did the setup and started discovering the LP.
The UI is butter smooth. actually its smoother than KK 4.4.4
All latest apps are there like home, keyboard, etc. US fw has lesser bloats than indian fw so I am thinking to use it for a while.
Disabled unwanted apps which can be disabled. I havent tried rooting yet. Wifi BT Data connection work flawlessly. there is no drop in 3G connectivity which I experienced a lot in 4.4.4
I hope sony will release the update for heating issue once they get all the feedbacks

Xposed works?!

mine was caused by unclean xposed framework left in system, camera is ok now

This is because of the new feature present in every Lollipop ROM - Android Runtime (ART), a new method of building app cache. It takes a lot more space to compile, but the user apps are faster, and that's why you guys feel like the ROM is smooth and fast.
Every older version used Dalvik runtime - a slower version than the new one.

i don't like the fact that xperia facebook does not sync contact photos anymore so i am stuck with blurry pictures for my contacts.... otherwise i really like the new email app..

Marshmallow update for Axon pro released

ZTE has released the marshmallow update for this beast. How's the update coming along for everyone so far?
The new update adds stock android features with little to no skinning.
Known issues/changes
•Some users are reporting stock launcher crashes, the problem can be alleviated by using a different launcher.
•Dolby Sound has gone missing, evidence provided by Arsenic53 suggest ZTE done goofed and accidentally removed it.
•The quick settings panel is now Dark and Transparent (very classy)
•Average RAM usage has gone up considerably due to system apps being badly optimized...or maybe they're just being rebellious?
•Bootloader still locked
•Battery drains quicker.
•Nice new booting screen
•Annoying WIFI calling issue has been resolved.
•Some users have reported lag even during the booting process.
•A user has reported that He/She cannot see the screen on some occasions especially when charging.
•The lockscreen is now closer to the stock version. The dialer shortcut has been replaced with a Google now voice function and the annoying "# more notifications" thing has been removed.
•Bloatware app "rockmyrun" can no longer be disabled.
P.S someone please link zte usa's twitter to this thread so they can go over it. Leave a reply so i can remove this message.

Taking forever to download...

Looks like Dolby Sound is now gone. I had a widget on the home screen and it is now gone and nowhere in the menus...I wonder what else is missing now

Yeah what a shame, I liked the dolby sound.

am not gonna risk it this time .but a great news they finally brought the marshmallow update cheers guys

The doze feature doesnt come with a dedicated settings tab. if you want to choose which apps get dozed and which dont, go to apps(settings) click the gear and click battery optimization; from there you can white list certain apps from doze (I recommend greenify if you want doze to activate in just a few minutes as opposed to an hour.)

issue with linage os 19

yesterday i installed linage os 19 and i found some bad thing happened, should not suggest you install this rom for DAILY DRIVER!
battery pretty much the same as my previous one ui (2 hours)
issue with internet connection, it limit my wifi to 3mb(megabyte)/sec and said lte but couldnt reach 1.0mb/sec. at apn section it said 3g.
hospot also have issue, though a vpn setting turned on so turning off it come back again, but bad 4g this useless
setting sometime crash for no reason
google and gg assitant keep crash, this is fixed after i grant all permission
i want the nofication bar section to be white in light mode, not dark
i couldnt find any color changer, i am stuck with 1 color
a huge gap down app list prob for google search wiget but i can't put it down, it made such a bad gap
the rom also couldnt measure data, only internet speed meter lite seems to working fine
no face id, seriously? that doesnt count iris
customization is pretty limited.
however it is ultra fast and take 1 second to install an app.
but i don't suggest you to use this rom, instead i suggest Evolotion x 4.4 rom(I have not tested, but according to bug section this has the most useless bug that i dont use ever), being an aosp rom with lowest amount of bugs (i no need votle and iris), and android 10 (11, 12 sucks on bubble chat and boot up...) also full of customization ( check some yt video, this is so COOL)
unable to get used to these rom? try hades 1.0 if you want your camera working, 2.0 if you want flashlight and iris
don't want bug, try pie oneui roms or come back to stock if you want to
thx for your attention
