Important notes:
1. If you want to say "Thanks!"
There are many ways to show your support to the developer. You can:
Press the "Thanks" button.
Hit the donation button and "buy me a beer".
Share your opinion about my work and write some feedback in respective thread.
Advertise my work to your friends.
Rate my thread with 5 stars.
Every way of support is highly appreciated, but it's not expected!​
2. Sharing policy
This forum is about sharing. If you want to use any part of my work, please feel free to do it but remember about some simple rules:
Inform me about using my work by sending me a message. You don’t need my permission, just inform me.
Include link to my thread from where you took particular files.
Give proper credits for what you used.
When it comes to using my ROM as a base you are free to do it only if I don't have "Stock ROMs" thread available for particular device. If such thread exists, you are
obligated to take ROMs from there instead. These threads with "Stock ROMs" are usually updated within 24 hours from the moment when I release my custom ROM.
Sharing is one thing, but please respect some areas of my work like:
ROM name - "Android Revolution HD", "Android Revolution", "Revo HD", "AR HD" etc.
Graphics used in my threads, especially head-banners designed exclusivity for me.
Other parts of my work that are not supposed to be used by others without proper permission.
Please let me keep my threads design unique. I’m sure you can do something even better yourself!​
3. Support
If you have any issues or questions, please feel free to post them in the respective thread. Due to my commitments in real life I can't answer every PM, tweet or facebook post.
If you want to get the fastest and the best answer - ask the question in the thread. Every month I need to remove about 1.000 new messages from my XDA inbox. I’m sure it’s better if I spend this time cooking new ROMs.​
4. Signature banners for users
Due to the increasing number of users flashing my ROMs we introduced some time ago 3 special groups of members.
Android Revolution HD Recognized User – every user might get this rank with proper banner by being active in my thread (or threads).
Helping users to solve problems, answering questions or preparing threads with add-ons for Android Revolution HD are the most common ways to gain this rank. Just be active and we’ll contact you!
Android Revolution HD Advanced User – every user might get this rank with proper banner by doing some amazing modification, application, theme etc. for Android Revolution HD.
Creating simple bootanimation might not be enough, but you never know! Having Recognized User status before is not needed!
Android Revolution HD Supporter – every user who shared some server space with us (with proper bandwidth) will get this banner. Please keep in mind we can't use DropBox shared folders.
What we can use is minimum 20 GB of space and 10 Mbit upload speed. If you want to donate some server space to us, please contact me via private message.
Apart of those special banners, every user might use one of our amazing user banners collected in this thread.
Finally, thanks for using my work! I hope you will enjoy Android Revolution HD!​

For Android Revolution HD [all versions]
Change CPU max scaling frequency when screen is turned off from 700 MHz to 920 MHz - this is good for performance, but can decrease battery life
Change CPU max scaling frequency when screen is turned off from 700 MHz to 350 MHz - this is good for battery saving, but can cause reboots in random situations
Remove face-detection engine - this will remove the "Facelock" functionality. Safe to remove, if you don't use it
Performance Tweaks for Android Revolution HD
data_writeback journalism for /system, /data and /cache partitions.
This mod will turn ON data_writeback for all 3 partitions - system, data and cache. This will drastically improve I/O performance (mostly on write operations) at the expense of file system integrity in certain situations, like unexpected system shutdown. The risk is not extreme, but still bigger then regular. Use this to improve your system performance, but you flash it at your own risk!
Download here:
Android Revolution HD EXT4 Tweaks v.0.1
Force GPU rendering on 2D operations.
This mod is working similar to "Render GUI with GPU" option in Development Settings. Flashing this will force whole system to use GPU rendering (instead of CPU) for all kind of 2D/3D operations. This might improve 2D operations performance, but keep in mind that some apps are not working correctly with GPU rendering. After using this mod you no longer need to tick "Render GUI with GPU" in settings. Even if un-ticked it will be still working. Flash it at your own risk!
Download here:
Android Revolution HD GPU Rendering v.0.1​

Q 4: My Gallery app force close when I tap on any folder How to fix it?
A: Probably you removed Google+ application. Just restore it. (Thanks to Hunteres for the solution)
Q 5: Do I need to wipe data partition when upgrading from old version of Android Revolution HD?
A: I always recommend wiping data partition but it's absolutely necessary only if I mention that in the changelog. But normally you can live without it.
Wipe data partition if you experience any issues.

Q 6: I have some strange issues with my ROM that nobody reported before. What should I do in first place?
A: In first place you should check, if the MD5 Checksum is correct. Then flash ROM again and see if the issue is gone. A lot of strange issues can be solved this way.
Q 7: I had SetCPU installed on Android Revolution HD, then I flashed new version of AR HD and SetCPU doesn't work any more. How to fix it?
A: Please reinstall SetCPU.

Q 8: I can't send/receive MMS or I can't connect with mobile data connection. How can I fix it?
A: Please check your MMS settings or mobile data connection APN settings.
Q 9: My phone got random freezes or reboots. How can I fix it?
A: Every CPU is different. It seems that your CPU doesn't like OC or UV (undervolt). Set your CPU to default 1GHz.
If it doesn't help, then you need to flash default kernel from the second post.

Q 10: My GPS signal is very weak or GPS is not working at all. How can I fix it?
A: There are some solutions:
1. You can download and install FasterFix to improve your signal strength.
2. You can download and install GPS Status & Toolbox to manage your GPS settings.
3. Turn off "Fast boot" under "Settings" ---> "Power" and reboot your phone.

Q 12: My Quadrant score is not as high as on different ROM. What does it mean?
A: It means absolutely nothing. Benchmarks on Android System are more or less lottery and they are not showing the real system performance.
There are many settings that can force Quadrant to show more then 3000 points but it's faked performance, that actually can slow down your phone in some circumstances.
What I always emphasize is a real performance, the one you can feel under your fingers. Remember that I/O has some limit and surpassing it shows just a numbers without true ratio.
Also keep in mind that Quadrant has support for Android Gingerbread only in version 1.1.7 and higher.
Q 13: My Wi-Fi doesn't reconnect automatically after boot. How to fix it?
A: Disable fastboot in settings or check this solution.

Q 14: My Gallery app force close when I tap on any folder How to fix it?
A: Probably you removed Google+ application. Just restore it. (Thanks to Hunteres for the solution)​​

I would like first few people to test ROM before I release links

I assume as this an over-clocked ROM it'll have some sort of negative impact on battery life?

I guess it comes with underclock and undervolt as well. And probably you can adjust clocking and volting as well as the gouvernor to your needs.

Maybe a title change is in order Mike? I love your other ROMS, but the title here is misleading and innacurate.

Strange, I will see if mine FC as well.

It would be awesome if you guys added launcher autorotation in,

Uploading 1.2.2

I've been testing this for a few hours now and it's been rock solid. Seems a little bit faster than stock even. No complaints at all and can't wait for what Mike has in store for future versions!

Mike you are a star!! i like your ROM's and even this now - flying ICS machine is what i have now in my pocket. Many thanks for your work!

Installing your rom will also include the kernal during flashing so you get both or separate flash for kernal?

I don't get it, what differentiates this from the already existing rom's and why would one change when some of your bugs are fixed in many of the other rom's?

I appreciate what you're doing and well done an all but all i'm saying is that the RoM's on offer should be doing all they can to show what they have done differently to other builds.
Personally I can see little difference between your release and Villain or aHero aside from the bugs which they fixed a while ago. All I'm saying is that to get followers/users you need to offer something new! What is your rom offering that Villain isn't? Why would I want to go through all the hassle of backup & wipe?
Not cool guys.
If I have learned ONE thing from my experience with many, MANY different ROMs over the last few months, it's that each one has it's own uniqueness about it, despite what it may say on the "features" list.
There is ALWAYS room for new ROMs on the scene, and just because it may not be YOUR favourite, doesn't mean someone else won't prefer x over y.
No one is forcing you to backup & wipe. If you're happy with your current ROM, then don't bother. But DON'T come here and question the developer on the necessity of his work!
I'll certainly be trying this ROM out, as I'm yet to find a vanilla 2.1 ROM that I am 100% happy with for day-to-day use. Perhaps this isn't the one, but I'll certainly give it a shot.
Thanks robin04. I hope the negative attitude in this thread doesn't dissuade you from further development.
can't download it plz upload on mediafire
I wasnt beeing negative as i said in 1st post its always nice to see new ROM developers.
All i did was answer the dude question not my fault that he edited it while i was typing.
I do hope he continues to develop his ROM

Thanks for your suggestions
awesome rom thanx for sharing,few issues could we implement the camera fix and vending.apk for the market or could someone point me in the direction of these plz ? also is there any other youtube.apk that we could push to this build because the videos dont play on this rom ?
If we could get these issues fixed this would be the best AOSP rom i have used simply because most live wallpapers actually work !
"green" "didgital rain" "water" "Duck hunt" and a bunch of others from the market actually stay on and dont dissapear with the lock / unlock cycle

Not cool guys.
If I have learned ONE thing from my experience with many, MANY different ROMs over the last few months, it's that each one has it's own uniqueness about it, despite what it may say on the "features" list.
There is ALWAYS room for new ROMs on the scene, and just because it may not be YOUR favourite, doesn't mean someone else won't prefer x over y.
No one is forcing you to backup & wipe. If you're happy with your current ROM, then don't bother. But DON'T come here and question the developer on the necessity of his work!
I'll certainly be trying this ROM out, as I'm yet to find a vanilla 2.1 ROM that I am 100% happy with for day-to-day use. Perhaps this isn't the one, but I'll certainly give it a shot.
Thanks robin04. I hope the negative attitude in this thread doesn't dissuade you from further development.

I have no idea what negative attitude you're referring to but i think you've got the wrong end of the stick. I'm trying to help him out! I'm not here advertising my rom or any favorite, just asking what differentiates his.
I just think the ROM should probably be labeled correctly. It would be easy for a new user to install this rom when other roms would be better suited. Labelling this ROM a beta would probably be more accurate, until the major kinks are worked out.
The 3gp video record with the camera can play or not? (freeze after first frame)
Thanks
great rom Robin, imho the best AOSP 2.1 avaiable!! thx
Does this rom have root? If so,I can't get it... have flashed many roms but never had this problem. I have wiped data and dalvik. never used a2sd.
Any ideas?
never mind. got it working
How's the battery life?
tun.ko in aosp rom possible?

Important notes:
1. If you want to say "Thanks!"
There are many ways to show your support to the developer. You can:
Press the "Thanks" button.
Hit the donation button and "buy me a beer".
Share your opinion about my work and write some feedback in respective thread.
Advertise my work to your friends.
Rate my thread with 5 stars.
Every way of support is highly appreciated, but it's not expected!​
2. Sharing policy
This forum is about sharing. If you want to use any part of my work, please feel free to do it but remember about some simple rules:
Inform me about using my work by sending me a message. You don’t need my permission, just inform me.
Include link to my thread from where you took particular files.
Give proper credits for what you used.
When it comes to using my ROM as a base you are free to do it only if I don't have "Stock ROMs" thread available for particular device. If such thread exists, you are
obligated to take ROMs from there instead. These threads with "Stock ROMs" are usually updated within 24 hours from the moment when I release my custom ROM.
Sharing is one thing, but please respect some areas of my work like:
ROM name - "Android Revolution HD", "Android Revolution", "Revo HD", "AR HD" etc.
Graphics used in my threads, especially head-banners designed exclusivity for me.
Other parts of my work that are not supposed to be used by others without proper permission.
Please let me keep my threads design unique. I’m sure you can do something even better yourself!​
3. Support
If you have any issues or questions, please feel free to post them in the respective thread. Due to my commitments in real life I can't answer every PM, tweet or facebook post.
If you want to get the fastest and the best answer - ask the question in the thread. Every month I need to remove about 1.000 new messages from my XDA inbox. I’m sure it’s better if I spend this time cooking new ROMs.​
4. Signature banners for users
Due to the increasing number of users flashing my ROMs we introduced some time ago 3 special groups of members.
Android Revolution HD Recognized User – every user might get this rank with proper banner by being active in my thread (or threads).
Helping users to solve problems, answering questions or preparing threads with add-ons for Android Revolution HD are the most common ways to gain this rank. Just be active and we’ll contact you!
Android Revolution HD Advanced User – every user might get this rank with proper banner by doing some amazing modification, application, theme etc. for Android Revolution HD.
Creating simple bootanimation might not be enough, but you never know! Having Recognized User status before is not needed!
Android Revolution HD Supporter – every user who shared some server space with us (with proper bandwidth) will get this banner. Please keep in mind we can't use DropBox shared folders.
What we can use is minimum 20 GB of space and 10 Mbit upload speed. If you want to donate some server space to us, please contact me via private message.
Apart of those special banners, every user might use one of our amazing user banners collected in this thread.
Finally, thanks for using my work! I hope you will enjoy Android Revolution HD!​

Contributors
mike1986.
ROM OS Version: 4.3.x Jellybean
ROM Kernel: Linux 3.4.x
Based On: AOSP
Version Information
Status: Stable
Created 2013-07-30
Last Updated 2015-12-20
For Android Revolution HD [all versions]
Change CPU max scaling frequency when screen is turned off from 700 MHz to 920 MHz - this is good for performance, but can decrease battery life
Change CPU max scaling frequency when screen is turned off from 700 MHz to 350 MHz - this is good for battery saving, but can cause reboots in random situations
Remove face-detection engine - this will remove the "Facelock" functionality. Safe to remove, if you don't use it
Performance Tweaks for Android Revolution HD
data_writeback journalism for /system, /data and /cache partitions.
This mod will turn ON data_writeback for all 3 partitions - system, data and cache. This will drastically improve I/O performance (mostly on write operations) at the expense of file system integrity in certain situations, like unexpected system shutdown. The risk is not extreme, but still bigger then regular. Use this to improve your system performance, but you flash it at your own risk!
Download here:
Android Revolution HD EXT4 Tweaks v.0.1
Force GPU rendering on 2D operations.
This mod is working similar to "Render GUI with GPU" option in Development Settings. Flashing this will force whole system to use GPU rendering (instead of CPU) for all kind of 2D/3D operations. This might improve 2D operations performance, but keep in mind that some apps are not working correctly with GPU rendering. After using this mod you no longer need to tick "Render GUI with GPU" in settings. Even if un-ticked it will be still working. Flash it at your own risk!

Q 5: Do I need to wipe data partition when upgrading from old version of Android Revolution HD?
A: I always recommend wiping data partition but it's absolutely necessary only if I mention that in the changelog. But normally you can live without it.
Wipe data partition if you experience any issues.

Q 6: I have some strange issues with my ROM that nobody reported before. What should I do in first place?
A: In first place you should check, if the MD5 Checksum is correct. Then flash ROM again and see if the issue is gone. A lot of strange issues can be solved this way.

A: Please reinstall SetCPU.

Q 8: I can't send/receive MMS or I can't connect with mobile data connection. How can I fix it?
A: Please check your MMS settings or mobile data connection APN settings.
Q 9: My phone got random freezes or reboots. How can I fix it?
A: Every CPU is different. It seems that your CPU doesn't like OC or UV (undervolt). Set your CPU to default 1GHz.

Q 12: My Quadrant score is not as high as on different ROM. What does it mean?
A: It means absolutely nothing. Benchmarks on Android System are more or less lottery and they are not showing the real system performance.
There are many settings that can force Quadrant to show more then 3000 points but it's faked performance, that actually can slow down your phone in some circumstances.
What I always emphasize is a real performance, the one you can feel under your fingers. Remember that I/O has some limit and surpassing it shows just a numbers without true ratio.
Also keep in mind that Quadrant has support for Android Gingerbread only in version 1.1.7 and higher.
Q 13: My Wi-Fi doesn't reconnect automatically after boot. How to fix it?
A: Disable fastboot in settings or check this solution.

Q 14: My Gallery app force close when I tap on any folder How to fix it?

I've been testing this for a few hours now and it's been rock solid. Seems a little bit faster than stock even. No complaints at all and can't wait for what Mike has in store for future versions!
Mike you are a star!! i like your ROM's and even this now - flying ICS machine is what i have now in my pocket. Many thanks for your work!
Installing your rom will also include the kernal during flashing so you get both or separate flash for kernal?

Welcome to SentinelROM for Nexus 10. Based on CM10.2. Android 4.3
This ROM is based on CyanogenMod 10.2 with all the features you get in a CM10.2 ROM, plus the following features.
Compiled with Linaro toolchain for enhanced performance.
Aroma Installer for additional tweaks and options
Zip Aligned
Compiled from latest CyanogenMod 10.2 source
Improved Web Browsing performance
Improved 3D gaming performance
Improved battery life
Additional theming and UI customisation
FAST support via this page and our Facebook Page
________________________
This ROM has been built to enhance the CyanogenMod 10.2 experience, with faster gaming and web browsing performance (no choppyness in Chrome too!).
Countless hours have been spent making tweaks to settings to squeeze the most performance I can find out of this ROM while still providing excellent battery life and without the dangers of overclocking and kernel level tweaking.
I compile this ROM and Kernel from the latest CyanogenMod source code, add my various tweaks and adjustments, then test for stability, so you get all the benefits of CyanogenMod 10.2, plus my tweaks and extras, all without the instability and inconvenience of flashing CyanogenMod nightlies (which are not designed specifically for the Nexus 10 like my ROM is.
The kernel source is available from the CyanogenMod's GitHub.
________________________
________________________
None that I am aware of. Please report any issues in this thread or on the Facebook page.
Note: On CM10.1 ROMs, to access the internal SD card on your device via USB on your PC, please go to "Settings" - "About Tablet" and tap on "Build Number" repeatedly to unlock "Developer Options". Now go to "Developer Options" and enable "Android Debugging".
________________________
If installing for the first time:
To install this ROM you will need to have an unlocked bootloader and a custom Recovery such as TWRP or ClockWorkMod installed (personally I recommend TWRP, I have had issues with restoring backups using CWM). If you haven't yet unlocked your bootloader and installed a custom recovery, I recommend downloading and installing the Nexus 10 Toolkit.
Copy the downloaded SentinelROM zip to your Internal Storage.
Boot into your custom recovery
Back up your stock ROM
Factory Reset and wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache
Wipe System Partition
Install the ROM
Install GAPPS
Reboot. First boot can take up to 5 minutes.
Important: CyanogenMod statics is switched off by default in this ROM. After installation you will be asked if you want to turn it on, please leave it off.
Note: Use of titanium backup to restore apps and data from another ROM is not recommended, and is the source of 90% of user issues, especially when it comes to battery life. Do so at your own risk.
You may flash other kernels as you wish via recovery. Remember to also flash the correct libraries for any 3rd party kernels.Instructions will be given by the Kernel author. NOTE: Updating the ROM via OTA will also overwrite any custom Kernels you have installed.
________________________
Thanks very much to all those who have answered my questions through the process of creating my own ROM, you know who you are.
CyanogenMod for their outstanding work. Full credit to them for the bulk of this ROM.
The Linaro team for their amazing toolchain.

GAPPS

MD5Sum: check the md5 of the files before flashing it
Other Kernels
For extreme performance, give KTManta Kernel by ktoonsez a go. It improves gaming performance significantly, but your device will get quite hot.
I'm going to do some more testing and may include it in later builds.

Please visit my FAQ's page before asking questions in the thread. Chances are the answer is already there! I'm always happy to help out with any other questions.

NOTE: Unless otherwise stated, the following mods are developed by SentinelROM users and therefore I can only offer limited support for problems caused by using them.
Tablet UI for SentinelROM v4.70 - Kindly donated by SentinelROM user brGabriel - Flash via Recovery. To restore to stock, reflash SentinelROM and wipe cache.

I hope you enjoy my ROM. If you do, please consider a donation to the CyanogenMod team. If you really like my build, please consider a donation to me as well. Donations go towards flowers for my wife so she lets me keep developing, and of course, additional devices so I can add to my list of supported devices.
As always, you flash my ROM at your own risk. By unlocking your bootloader and flashing any custom ROM, you are potentially voiding your warranty. I'm in no way responsible for any damage to your device caused by flashing this ROM or any other tweaks/mods discussed in the following posts.

Re: [ROM] [28/01/13] - SentinelROM v3.00 - CM10.1 Base - Fast, Stable, Themed
I spent 4 hours yesterday trying to get it working and had to give up for this build. I could do it for AOSP but can't get it to work on CM10 base. Ill keep trying though.
Sent from my EndeavorU using xda premium
Is there a tabletUI option for this release?
I looked at Tablet UI as an option, but the consensus is that it's depreciated and support will become less and less over time, so I decided to leave it out with this ROM.
Re: [ROM] [28/01/13] - SentinelROM v3.00 - CM10.1 Base - Fast, Stable, Themed
What does he mean by that is he talking about the action bar or the menu button that appears on the right?
Anyhow I had an idea that maybe I could work on some modifications that I would like on this ROM without having to ask you for it, but I am very new at it and all of the guides I have found are either out of date or are poorly written so I didn't understand how to do it. Do you think you could direct me in the right direction to get started? I would really appreciate it, thank you very much.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using xda app-developers app
Yeah he means moving the navigation bar at the bottom so that the Back, Home and Running buttons are off to the left hand side.
I figured out how to move them and it works perfectly in SentinelROM AOSP, but it seems that CM10.1 is using some weird scaling in the systemUI to fit the large screen of the N10. Even when I modify the XML to adjust the alignment to the far left, it sits about 3 quarters of the way across. From what I can tell, as far as the systemUI knows, this is the edge of the screen and the rest of the area is deadzone. I'll spend some more time later in the week working on it.
Anyone else is always welcome to make mods and tweaks (anything that works with this ROM should also work with other CM10 based ROMS). I welcome and encourage it in the spirit of open source! Hey this whole ROM is pretty much a CyanogenMod Kang.
You just need to package them up as flash-able zips that can be flashed via recovery. If I like them, I'll include them in future builds with your permission
To make mods you will need 7-ZIP, Notepad++ and APKTool. You just need to extract the APK you want to edit using APKTool, then make your modifications using Notepad++, then compile using APKTool and merge your modded resources with the original APK in 7-Zip. Then you just need to push the modified APK to your device (I use Android Commander for that). Compiling into a flash-able zip is a little more tricky but there are plenty of guides around.
Hello,

Does CM10.1 or your Rom have EQS on the right curtain?
I tried to find out at the CyanogenMod Homepage ... but without success
Thank you
Robert
EDIT:
I think I found the answer ... YES

Hello,
sorry for newbie questions, but in the thread of Craigacgomez he linked a GAPPS (GoogleAppsPack-4.2.1-JOP40D.zip)
with a filesize of 150MB, when I go to the link from 1.Page:
GAPPS
http://goo.im/gapps >Check the lastest package available on top
MD5Sum: check the md5 of the files before flashing it
There is a zip file for "me" (gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip) with only 90 MB
Why is the size so different?
Bye
Robert
p.s.
now I installed your rom with gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip, but I have very few EQS
Can I somewhere set up, what I want to control with EQS?
Re: [ROM] [28/01/13] - SentinelROM v3.00 - CM10.1 Base - Fast, Stable, Themed
Thanks for the nice little simple guide at the hell of a lot easier to understand than all the other ones I found. If I have any problems with making it it flash able, even with looking at the different guides out there. I know I can come to you, thank you. My goal is to incorporate be modifications that allow me to modify the bottom bar, the Quick Settings bar with the message settings app, the notification LEDs, and to be able to make my ROM updatable over the air. I bet this will be a very difficult thing to achieve but nothing easy is worth doing.

Hello,
me once again
Is it possible to spread the dock icons further?
Because they are very close together.

Hi mate,
EQS is completely configurable from Settings - System - Quick Settings Panel
I'm not sure why the GAPPS package is smaller, but it's the one CyanogenMod recommend with any CyanogenMod based ROMs and I haven't had any problems. with it.
Re: [ROM] [28/01/13] - SentinelROM v3.00 - CM10.1 Base - Fast, Stable, Themed
I suggest installing Nova launcher it is amazing you can customize so many things that is ridiculous. I installed that one and uninstalled the one that comes with the ROM and I couldn't be happier.

I'm working on this. Again this seems to be a "feature" of CyanogenMod at the moment and has to do with how the screen is scaled on the N10 to fit the larger screen. You'll notice that the icons remain the exact same width when you rotate to portrait. I believe there is some missing code somewhere in the launcher and systemUI which stretches to fit the screen.

Any lag on the home screen and menus when using Nova? I always found it to lag my other devices, but haven't used it much on the N10.

All the code for the bottom bar is in SystemUI.APK, it also ties in with code in Settings.APK which allows you to configure it's buttons.
As for OTA, I don't think you'll be able to do that because you need a server which you can poll and check updates against. At the moment most of the original CyanogenMod code is still there, I've just deleted references in the layout.xml for settings.apk so they do not show up in the menus. I'll have a look at some stage to see if I can modify the code to simply point to my own server, but I doubt it will be that straight forward.
I got an invite yesterday to list my ROM on RomManager, so I'll look into that as an option for now. I don't rank it high on the list of things to do though as it does not affect ROM functionality at all. I'd rather work on improving other things

[ROM] FRENKIEDROID_v8.1 Play Store eXtraSmooth fully themed

Hi At All.
This is my little contribute to the global Android comunity.
This is my build of the original rom Android for our GT-I8000 Omnia 2.
I think it is very powerful and fast. I prepared two versions of the ROM:
V_7: problem (known) does not work bluethoot, and the GPS is hard to use (but working), but really FFFFFFFFFFast ROM!
V_8 fully functional (I hope!) but less fast ROM.
You choose which version suits you.
I take no responsibility if you wrong procedure and inflict damage to the device.
All credits for working Android port on Omnia 2 are going to:
- almar (Marc)
- bsbsbs (Sándor)
- Egon
- phj (János)
- Voyteckst
Great thanks also to:
- Sgoo (ciao bello!)
- Synescu
- ipaq3870 for the kernels.
- o2droid
- Rapid81
- voku
Great thanks to my bro Spiderman1961 for the suggests, testing and much improvement for the rom.
I speak very little, and without his help on the forums, a lot of people would not have a lot of explaining about installation...
VAI BELLO!!
Well.
Here we go.
Procedure 1 (Linux Ubuntu) - (for advanced users)
-OLD version! Skip fww! This is only if you can't install with the next method in point 2.
FrenkieDroid v7.1 Play Store integrated (ext4.tar.gz) attached guide to flash with Ubuntu on your O2 (traditional perform).
FrenkieDroid v8.1 Play Store integrate (ext4.tar.gz)
GUIDE TO FLASH UNDER UBUNTU
Add the ultra-optimized version. Inside there is a guide to performing installation. Use ~Google Translate~ to translate.
[email protected]
Procedure 2.This second version is for istalling without using Ubuntu, and is most performing & much easily!
I suggest this version! ImageForWindows compatible , really easy!! guide attached in archive tool!
FrenkieDroid ROMs:
V_7:
For those who do not need the bluethoot and GPS (for GPS there is a solution, but it takes a little patience to set it ...)
and prefer a snappy rom, maybe "from the second phone," without gps and bluethoot but all set to give you all the fit and can, very agile, the ROM
of reference is the V_7:
FrenkieDroid_v7
ARCHIVE TOOLS
Android has never run so well on omnia 2.
[email protected]
V_8:
For those who point to the stability and full functionality of the device, and prefers to point to the new V_8 with Bluethoot and GPS working,
Little much consume of RAM memory, less "agile", but more stability.
FrenkieDroid v8:
GPS working;
Bluethoot working;
WiFi working;
Stock kernel (66-800 MHz)

NEWS ON HDBLOG FORUM ABOUT ROM​We thank Mr.:
almar (Marc)
bsbsbs (Sándor)
Egon
phj (János)
because through their research have made it possible to port Android on OmniaII
Thanks, however, to be larger
Frenkie99999999999
who raised this port to levels previously unimaginable!!!!!​
****************************************************************************************************************************************************​The base of the Rom is always CyanogenMod 6.2 Android 2.2 Froyo, I applied it to a series of tweaks and improvements to the code in order to make it more performant and responsive without the help of other applications, which remain resident in memory consumed Ram valuable.
Applications in support of the Rom have been thinned, so as to provide a product that after two months of testing occurs without disruption: the system is fast and handsome, any failure or delay is due only to the next installation of the app is not fully compatible this remains a PORTING, a system designed for other hardware and that no one thought of seeing run on OmniaII born for WinMobile
*****************************************************************************************************************************************************
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------​Now you can say goodbye to SetCPU, System Tuner, SGS Touchscreebooster and other apps you may have installed: no longer needed!
The same Task Manager is used only for the widget to put on the home to control the amount of RAM free: no need to use it to kill app left open in the background where everything is run by script inside the Roma: they are to manage the amount Ram minimum, the sensitivity of the touch screen and many other parameters that are described in the following here in the changelog that lists the new features compared to FrenkieDroid v8.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHANGELOG​
Graphics improvements:
New-style bootanimation Nexus
TRANSPARENT statusbar!
The portion of the screen appear where the line indicators, battery, time etc.. first opaque are now transparent graphic effect is surprising, despite assemble Android 2.2 Froyo, have attractive graphics such as JB and with a screen now so broad that almost has nothing to envy to the Galaxy S +!
Iridium Theme: new icons, new wallpaper, new buttons, new indicators battery and telephone line ... all according to the colors of the rainbow
New-launcher: Holo launcher: it is the lightest and most agile because it locked in memory via script, and not through Spicagenmod option (disable) or the launcher itself (disable)
App-system modded and skinned (already published previously) incorporated
Fixed a graphic bug icons that were too big disappear captions
Task Manager 1.8.1
File manager-much lighter than the previous: Explorer+
Quick Pick-2.8.2
Code improvements and tweaks
Ram-management through "Low Memory killer balanced script" (without app) according to these values: 8,14,55,70,85,100 (multitasking smooth and fast: only use task manager to see the percentage of free RAM memory, the script does the rest!)
Automatic Defragmentation at the boot of system databases
Zipalignin and fixpermission of the app (to prevent their Force close) on every boot which saves battery and ram, and greater fluidity of the system
55 Mb of RAM free at all times guaranteed!
Init.rc with changes incorporated
Modified build.prop
Virtual Memory Tweaks for greater fluidity
SD card Tweak: Increased read ahead cache data for faster access
Cleaning the cache on every boot, the system will not be filled with useless temporary files that weigh down and you will not need app to do that
GPU rendering
Compression of the Ram-through "Zram script" for a more responsive (you must disable Spicagenmod settings / performance / compcache ram usage)
Tweak-range for a greater fluidity
Darky-zipaling
For those who want to use live wallpapers these will be more fluid
Kernel tweaks for best performance
Battery tweaks: increased durability
Ext4 smart-mounting: Access to faster disk (noatime, disable barrier etc)
Improved sensibility of the touchscreen through script
Less lags through LMK Tweak and various VM Tweaks: smoother
Sysctl tweaks
Disabled logger
Many app will open faster with many tweaks added: phone, keyboard, messaging
Fixed the excessive delay in the appearance of buttons phone call (Tested several times: 2-3 seconds for the screen to appear to answer on our Omnia)
VSysnc-enabled
I / O scheduler tweaks
Better performance
Throughput better network with TCP tweaks and 3G tweaks

You must download this (inside there is guide with pictures) and rom
Version is 8: it's the same of 8.1: the only difference is that build for installation with Image for Windows
I suggest you partitioning you "my storage" with minitool; but after it's better reformat partition ext4 and swap under ubuntu!
Sistem will be faster

Hi,
Thanks for the work on the Omnia II.
Could someone post the install instructions in English.
I cannot read Italian.
Thanks.
it stuck
Twister ROM stuck all the time
especially when i want to connect usb cable for data tranfer. also wifi can not detect networks automatically
it is a very good job, since frenkie made his ROM very overloader with applications.
i do not want these applications. i only want a ROM with minimum possible so to customize them ourselves.
also if possible give to the public a gho version of your ROM. it is much easier than TBI format.
i also noticed that the autoinstaller version and the TBI version have many differencies on frenkiedroid.
autoinstaller version is more simple (fewer apps) but TBI version is faster.

Disclaimer: SlimRoms are not responsible for any damages to your device.
I do not own the SGH-T989, but I do have 3 SGH-i727 Skyrockets, and the Hercules is almost identical. My time is limited, but due to several requests for this, I wanted to share. Please help each other out, and keep the thread friendly and informative.
Installation:
Install a 4.4 compatible recovery, and reboot to recovery afterwards.
Format /system, /data and /dalvik cache.
Flash a compatible radio (see below).
Flash the ROM.
Flash GApps.
Reboot and enjoy!
Known Issues:
Power-off charging animation not working.
You tell me...
Reporting Issues:
Do NOT report issues here if you're running a non-stock kernel, Xposed and/or modules, or any other non-stock mods.
For bug reporting (stock Slim ROM/kernel/GApps only), please use the Slim Bugreport tool, accessible through Settings > SlimCenter > Bugreport to produce a zip file in the phone's storage which you then can upload to the SlimROMs Hercules Subforum for review. Please see Reporting Bugs on the Slim web site for more information.
Any issues please explain with specific details, how to reproduce the problem, and provide a Slim Bug Report (preferred, in the ROM), or a logcat. Good feedback is ESSENTIAL.
Installation Notes:
Radios: Make sure you are running a JellyBean radio or newer (T989: UVMC6 | T989D: TLMC4), and follow the installation instructions linked to in post #1. A thread for flashable radios is here.
Recovery: Recommended recovery: CWM or TWRP.
Superuser: The Slim Team has made it so the Superuser App is not enabled by default, requiring users to intentionally turn on Root access. To enable it, navigate to Settings > Developer Options > Root Access and choose Apps and ADB (even though it may appear selected). For this to work, you need to first go to Settings > About Phone and tap on Build Number several times to gain access to the Developer Options.
Also see here: http://slimroms.net/faq/slimbean/441-how-do-i-enable-root
Kernel: The kernel is based on the Moretz CM-11.0 kernel, but overclocking has been disabled to enhance stability. For sweep2wake, fast charge, and CPU freq/governor control features, I'd recommend [ROOT] Kernel Tweaker from the Play store.
Wi-Fi: Wi-Fi connection dropping issues? Check your region code in Settings > Wi-Fi > (menu key) > Advanced > Wi-Fi region code. It may be set to Europe by default, which uses a different set of Wi-Fi channels than the United States or Canada.
DPI: For information on changing the screen DPI, see here: How to change the screen density (DPI). Beware that some apps may not play nice with custom values, although normally the Slim GApps are modified to tell the Play Store and a couple of other apps that the phone's DPI is always 240.
Enjoy!

Initial test build: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567714111
Welcome to the Hercules forum and thanks for bringing this ROM back to us. I will be testing this later this evening after work. Also I will get the word out on G+.
big fan of slim cant wait to see what this brings
Initial Impressions
OK after a few hours of testing, here is what I found:
First of all, the instruction to not change the governor on the stock kernel apparently applies to Wild! V6 as well. After installation, boot was just fine. Thinking I could change the governor because this was a custom kernel, I changed the governor to Intellidemand. No problem then either, but after a reboot the phone boot looped. Re-installing the kernel fixed that, but then it happened again. Also the wi-fi setting was not saving my password either. So after getting the phone to boot up (had to install the kernel once more), I set the governor to Interactive. No more boot loops after three reboots. So that was taken care of.
The other issues I encountered were extremely slow charging (only 1% charge in about a 45 minute time frame) and Google Now FCd every time I tried to open it (even after I wiped data & cache). Upon those problems I had to restore my nandroid for now. I do also want to mention some positives. The ROM really does fly, and with Slim mini gapps over 200mb of free ROM space is available so the ROM lives up to its name of "less is more". Video recording was perfect and without any delay. I have been out of the loop for a bit on changelogs, but for those who don't know the new theme engine is still not included in this ROM as of yet. The real dark Slim does work though.
Bottom line this is not yet ready for a DD IMHO, but with tweaking, could be the fastest ROM we have available. I really was almost willing to deal with the bugs because I was so impressed with the speed. The screen wake lag that plagues all the other ROMs did not happen for me here. Thanks again @NoSpamDan, I'll be happy to try future builds as well.

Thanks, I appreciate the testing and feedback!
Let me first say that details are everything, especially when I don't have a test phone available...
I am looking for bugs that exist in the as-built ROM, and therefore I am unable to provide any support for 3rd party kernels... This could have caused most of the issues you experienced.
Was there a problem with the stock CM-11.0 kernel bundled into the ROM, aside from the known governor switching issue? If so, the built-in Slim Bug Report tool (Settings > SlimCenter > Bugreport) will produce a zip file you can upload here for the time being for review. Please see Reporting Bugs on the Slim web site for more information.
For random reboots (RR's), you can also try using Bootlog Uptime to automatically dump /proc/last_kmsg for you to review/upload.
The Google Now issue shouldn't have anything to do with the ROM itself, that is in GApps. And if you were using the mini-gapps package, did you install Google Search separately? According to the TRDS GApps thread, it's not included in the mini package, and you could have been missing some key library files from the GApps package.
What version of KK4.4 GApps did you install? You said mini, but was it v155, v157, v160?
For now, I would recommend using the beta GApps with Unofficial builds until an Official ROM version is released. Please bear in mind that @dankoman has been producing new beta TRDS GApps versions quite often. His discussion thread is here.
What I really need are bug reports and logs using only the stock Slim ROM/kernel/GApps... Unfortunately, without these, I won't be able to provide effective support to try and make this ROM better, much less try to get the Hercules officially supported on the Slim site.
Thanks again!

Yeah I was afraid you might bring the logs up, and rightfully so. Reason that I did not use the built in kernel is that I have NEVER had good experiences with stock kernels from CM. Plus with the limited governor availability, I was hoping Wild! would eliminate that problem. I was also unaware of Bootlog Uptime or I would have used it to help with this situation.
On Gapps, I used these from the Slim ROMs web site: http://slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewdownload/1150-addons4-4/12060-slim-mini-gapps-4-4-4-build-6-112
Google Now wasn't included so I restored it via Titanium Backup. After the FCs, I wiped the data. Still no luck. I tried to uninstall it but when I checked settings/apps, it was still showing as installed. I should have just fresh installed it from Play or better yet, used the Banks Gapps I already had. At any rate, I know I could have fixed that problem if I had tried other things.
Any idea what might have caused the slow charging? I've had that happen on official CM as well.

On Gapps, I used these from the Slim ROMs web site: http://slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewdownload/1150-addons4-4/12060-slim-mini-gapps-4-4-4-build-6-112
Google Now wasn't included so I restored it via Titanium Backup.

Yeah, those GApps are pretty outdated, but should still work. TiBu on the other hand, can be pure evil sometimes...
After the FCs, I wiped the data. Still no luck. I tried to uninstall it but when I checked settings/apps, it was still showing as installed.

OK. Now (Quicksearchbox.apk) is a System App, so yeah, I can see trouble with it if restored.

Not off-hand. I take it you've tried different chargers/cables...? There's an app on XDA here called Skyrocket Charger Test that, while it's labeled 'Skyrocket', based on what it queries for information, might work on the Herc to check the charging rate and type. I believe it also works on the Note 1 SGH-i717... Worth a shot to test chargers and cables for issues. It's saved me many times.

Well thing is, on other ROMs like PA or Beanstalk 4.4 builds I get about 40% an hour charge. I use two different chargers at home & work, both Samsung with no issues. The slow charging issue is one I've only encountered with official CM (especially 4.4 nightlies), an old Beanstalk 4.3 ROM and unofficial Carbon 4.2 build back from last fall.
On TB it really is both a blessing and a curse sometimes!
Only issue is found is SD card usage. I don't have external SD card btw

Thanks for the report.
I take it you did wipe /data or perform a factory reset upon installation? This will not wipe your internal SD card (music/photos/etc)...
Sometimes just a dalvik and cache wipe from recovery fixes this. A log/bugreport might help. Did you try clicking on that SDCard entry to see what app or process it says is running? Do you have Outlook installed or Exchange mail configured?
And I couldn't help but notice, are you running Juice Defender? FYI many have reported worse battery life on KitKat with that... I purchased the full version myself back when I switched from GB to ICS, but ended up ditching it when JB came along, and never looked back.
Everyone's usage/situation is different...

Yes to wipe everything except internal SD.
I will try a dalvik/cache wipe/battery stats and see if it helps.
Don't have either of those email clients installed.
Clicking on SD card entry in battery just shows cpu uptime for SD Card, not specific process.
I'll remove juice defender after the wipes above work/don't work, don't want too many variables changing while trying to troubleshoot. :angel:
LOL, yes, one step at a time is good. else you can end up with no clue at all
Oh, I just saw "battery stats"... and wiping those has no effect in Android 4.4. Google debunked that some time ago. See here. Recharging the device will reset the battery usage stats in Settings > Battery.
I used to wipe the battery stats myself, and I honestly didn't know there were still recoveries that still had that built in (TWRP maybe) since I've been on PhilZ Touch CWM recovery myself for a long time. No Fix Permissions either, wouldn't you know (not a bad thing, actually)...
I sure did like my placebo effect, though. I still miss it, lol.
The Dalvik/cache wipe fixed SD card issue... Thanks
First, thanks for helping us all out and working on bringing us this ROM. Tried it out today and was impressed by how fast it booted and its responsiveness. Flashed through TWRP 2.7.1.0 along with newest beta slim mini gapps. Full wipe/clean install. A few things I noticed:
1) Native superuser doesn't function. Tried going into settings>advanced options>superuser and auto-allowing apps permissions...no go. Unable to create logcat/bugreport for this issue as they both require root. Fixed by flashing Chainfires SuperSU zip through TWRP
2) Battery charge speed seemed normal here
3) I live in US and wifi region code was set to Europe after install.
4) In your OP you mention radios not related to our model. The newest radio for T989 is T989UVMC6
5) Something not specific to your ROM, but with all recent ROMs (CM related?) stock messaging app no longer turns data on to send/receive MMS messages. Again, nothing on your end, just felt the need to bring attention to it.
Thanks again for your work
ive been on this all day today without any problems! slims as good it was before

Thank you much for the feedback.
1) You have to enable Superuser through Developer options. See installation notes in post #2, with a link to Slim's FAQ on it.
2) Good!
3) I've seen this before, and will look into it, although as you said, if you drill into the Wifi > Advanced > Region code settings, you can change it to whatever. So, low priority.
4) I'll look at the assert script for the radio version. Can you link the radio thread please?
5) I haven't heard of this. I don't believe it affects the Skyrocket...? Does this happen on the recommended radios?
I have a new build compiling with a "stock-ish" version of the Moretz kernel (no over clock/undervolting).
It has sweep2wake, fast charge, more governors, and reportedly better Bluetooth support (with SR users).
I'll post it for testing when it's ready for those interested...
I don't have any volunteers for testing (yet). . If you want to volunteer, you should be able and willing to clean flash at times 3-4 builds in a day, be able to capture logs and send them. Normal testing would be occasional builds, unless there was a major issue.
Looking for 3 or so testers to help possibly get this into the Slim weekly cycle.
Cheers!
