JVH, JVO and JVP themes can be found in this thread!
I was using ock's gingerbread theme for JVK and really liked versions 1-2. I'm not really interested in "all in one" themes and prefer things to be a bit more modular.
This is a "from scratch" theme, decompiled with apkmanager with graphics from AOSP source.
Also likely to only work with deodexed roms I would assume.
What this does:
* Changes the images in framework-res and SystemUI, these include the window frame shape, status bars and various other graphics.
* Changes a few text colours to properly match the new graphics.
* For the moment, has AOSP stock battery mod. (not percentages).
What this will never do:
* Change your lockscreen.
* Add more lockscreens.
* Have the extended power menu. (iirc these are "unsafe" reboots anyway)
* Include the overscroll glow.
* Include the CRT off animation.
If you're after these features I recommend popping over to ock's thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1010324
But, but, but, I really like the overglow effect!
dhiru1602's stand alone mod should work with these mods: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1027935&highlight=overscroll+glow
TODO:
- Media scanner's entry in the notification dropdown is coloured wrong. (part of TW?)
- Recolour the data connection icon on the power menu.
- Odd browser combo box size error.
- Adjust xml based colours to match AOSP.
Screenshots
Always useful to have a backup when trying new themes, so there's an "uninstall" which will replace the files back to stock.
CWM3 Compatible Installs:
Main theme:
* Install theme - aosp-jvb-vX.Xs.zip
* Samsung stock JVB theme - stock-jvbs.zip
Lockscreen:
* Install AOSP lock - aosp-lock-jvb-s.zip
* Install Samsung lock - glass-lock-jvb-s.zip
MediaProvider: (SDCard scanner)

At present I'm not intending to skin the dialler or contacts. More or less only core system related.

It couldn't hurt to give it a shot just replacing them. Just backup your current ones.
Otherwise search this forum for skins of dialler and contacts.

If you're on JVK you probably shouldn't flash this. I believe they are a little different. (you may see minor graphic bugs, etc). If you pop over to ock's thread I believe v1-v2 were for JVK.

"E:signature verification failed"...any ideas?
in fact, i only want to make the signal and wi-fi bars when avalable green instead of the stock light grey.
@sargorn great job with this AOSP theme.. love it. Right now, I cant use the files you provided because I'm using a modded framework-res.apk which includes chinese. Im trying to get your look though. So far, I made the status bar black, but cant seem to get it right. Is it possible if I give you my framework-res.apk and systemUI.apk, you can mod it for me? Sorry to ask you such a big request...thanks

You're probably using the stock kernel? You need to flash a custom gingerbread kernel and/or custom rom (basically you need CWM recovery) This theme is only for deodexed roms, so if you just flashed stock via kies or otherwise this probably won't work.
For a deodexed stock rom check out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948790
Or you can try a custom rom. Check the Development forum for those.

If you just want a minor change, can I recommend the UOT Kitchen?
http://uot.dakra.lt/
It's fairly easy to use (again, you need a deodexed rom for this), grab the framework-res.apk from /system/framework/ from your phone and the SystemUI.apk from /system/app/.
Choose whichever bits you want, then upload those two files and it will generate an update you can flash with CWM.
I think everything except the Boot animation should work on the galaxy s.

I can give it a shot, but without being able to correctly test it, it might be a bit hit and miss.
It's actually not so difficult to do yourself. There is a very good tutorial in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9978779#post9978779
For the images required I grabbed them from android aosp source, or you could simply decompile my framework-res with apk manager.
Tweaking a few things to match the AOSP xml, few colours, sizes, etc.
Will run it tomorrow on my phone and see if I find any issue then upload it if it's ok.
No problems with it, 1.5 is uploaded. Some new screenshots too!
sargorn, you somehow read mi mind with this them. I'm playing with framework pieces for weeks now trying to find the stock gingerbread look for SGS .
Your theme is looking excellent from all points of view.
Anyway ... please tell me what you did in order to fix the combo box bug in browser .. thanks.

Greetings!
As many of you know, G-Lite has been overdue for an update for some time now. There have been 2 T-Mobile OTA updates that G-Lite users haven't been able to take advantage of... until now.
After speaking with rmk, he's decided to allow me, tun4f1sh, to take over G-Lite development. I've rebased the ROM and cooked up a new kernel, and things are running OH-SO-SMOOTH. Here's all the stuff you'll need to know:
General info: G-Lite is a departure from other Virtuous ROMs in that it is effectively AOSP and designed to be lightweight, yet functional. If you find yourself discarding most of the features of Sense in favor of specific apps of your preference, this ROM is for you.
Features
Supported on the G2 and DesireZ only.
Minimalistic, lightweight ROM with +200MB of memory free at startup.
/system and user partitions partitioned and aligned with ext4.
Extremely battery efficient (dare I say, the BEST battery life of any Vision ROM?).
Based on Vision_Gingerbread_S_TMOUS_2.16.531.5, HTC's take on AOSP.
All device hardware fully functional, including wifi, bluetooth, camera, camcorder, etc.
Advanced power menu options (reboot/recovery)
Virtuous OC Daemon and memory optimizations.
Kernel 2.6.35.13 Vision Gingerbread kernel. Do NOT use AOSP kernels with this ROM (e.g. Pershoot, Cyanogen).
Market-sourced applications (Gmail, Maps, Voice, etc) automatically installed on first boot into /data/app for easy removal.
Replaced stock Gingerbread launcher with LauncherPro.
Wifi-Calling conditionally installed for US T-Mobile users.
Bloatware and unnecessary applications removed.
Rooted, deodexed.
All applications zipaligned on boot.
Trackpad wake fully supported.

Changelog
2.0.1
Code:
- Fixed installer script syntax error that was causing user preferences not to be applied. It was also causing extraneous data to be left behind possibly causing system instability (including notification bar lockups)
- Added option to use the "experimental" kernel compiled from MDJ's source (the kernel from 1.0.7).
- Create a "use_experimental_kernel" file in your /virtuous_glite directory to use the experimental kernel.
- The experimental kernel offers you more frequencies to overclock with, and has more features/functionality built into it (at the cost of stability/battery life in some cases, YMMV). See MDJ's github for more information on what's included.
2.0.0
Code:
- New kernel based more closely on HTC's source, and the original G-Lite kernel by rmk.
- Kernel changes:
- Rebased on HTC's original source (previously I used mdj's source)
- Fixed USB mounting (broken in HTC's source, was working with mdj's)
- Reduced Wifi voltage slightly
- Call volume levels slightly boosted
- Source: https://github.com/tun4f1sh/virtuous-kernel-7x30-gingerbread
- Screen on: ondemand 245->998
- Screen off: conservative 245->368
- Added "Reboot" and "Recovery" options to the shutdown menu (long press the "power" button)
- Create a "disable_apm" file in your /virtuous_glite directory to opt out of the feature and use the stock framework.
* NOTE: If you used UOT kitchen to theme the ROM, you'll need to redo your theme or opt out of APM as I've made framework changes.
- Replaced Mms.apk from TMO base with one compiled from AOSP. This resolves all MMS being converted to a slideshow.
- Replaced "4G" status icons with "H" icons.
- Create a "use_4g_icon" file in your /virtuous_glite directory to revert back to the 4G icons.
- Updated Market apps
- Removed all traces of Swype. Install it from their website if you want it.
- Removed some extra bloat from /system/app (~10mb)
- Removed htc_ebdlogd from /system/bin (Just to be safe, not sure if it has malicious/intrusive capabilities)
v1.0.7
Code:
- Fixed automatic mobile data connectivity (APNs) for international users.
- Included CM7 sensor driver (should resolve capacitive/qwerty backlight issues)
- SD Card read ahead set to 4096
v1.0.6
Code:
- EFS partition wiped during ROM flash (this should always be done when switching ROMs, just automating it to make your life easier)
- Added conditional trackpad wake (create "disable_trackpad_wake" file in your /sdcard/virtuous_glite directory to opt out of the feature)
- Fixed notification on LED not functioning (thanks cswroe for the tip)
- Added CM Tones, changed default from lame Tmo jingle :)
v1.0.5
Code:
- Fixed USB
- Fixed Camera
- Added ext4 support
- Added CM7 APN list
- Other fixes and things :)
v1.0.4
Code:
- Rebased on the latest T-Mobile US OTA 2.16.531.5
- Kernel patched up to version 2.6.35.14 (sources [url]http://goo.gl/yYUn7[/url], defconfig [url]http://goo.gl/VLfvV[/url])
- Market applications, superuser updated
- Zipalign script/binary added (thanks Darky, tsubus)
Customizing the ROM
By creating any combination of the following files (in bold) (contents do not matter) on your sdcard in the /virtuous_glite directory (create it if it does not exist) will allow you to customize the ROM to your liking. Once the files are in place, simply flash the ROM, and your settings will be picked up by the install script and your ROM will be customized accordingly. These preferences will persist between upgrades and re-flashes of the ROM.
use_stock_launcher - override the use of Launcher Pro in favor of the stock GIngerbread launcher.
disable_trackpad_wake - opt-out of trackpad wake feature
disable_apm - opt-out of advanced shutdown options (restart/recovery) and use stock framework.
use_4g_icon - use the "4G" (marketing) icon instead of the "H" icon.
use_experimental_kernel - use the older kernel (last seen in version 1.0.7) that's compiled from MDJ's source (with a few of my own fixes). This kernel allows more frequencies for overclocking, as well as some other features that MDJ has merged in. See his Github for more information. (Not supported)
Patches
Patches should be flashed via recovery after the ROM.
Desire-Z Physical Keyboard Patch - Flash this if you find that your physical keys aren't mapped correctly. Thanks to revolution48
Please don't forget to hit "thanks" and rate the thread high if you enjoy the ROM!

Does this rom has dutch language?
International users, please let me know if the Wi-Fi calling auto removal goes over without a hitch. It's the same logic from the other Virtuous ROMs, so it SHOULD work.

why tun4 why... I just got sense 3.5 set up nicely.. looks like its going to nandroid. ill give this a shot, thanks
EDIT: Is there extended settings or is the notification bar blank? this is a no no for me ): because i do not know what to replace the toggles with
Very nice I am downloading this as I type this. I will report back if there is any problems, but chances are, I won't which means I will be one happy camper.
erichung, there was no extended settings in the previous version, so I seriously doubt it will be in here.

Disappointing..
I just finished doing a complete wipe via CWR, flashed the ROM and have been using it for the last couple of minutes.
tun4fish, I am very much thankful for your work and pushing for G-Lite to getting its much needed update. With that being said, I am by no means whining about the things I'm about to post below, but just small things I came across already and I thought maybe this would be considered feedback and to help towards that original G-Lite feel to it. Much thanks for your work!
- Just like in the previous version, the power control widget is usable only after applying to a homescreen and rebooting.
- Some bloatware that was removed in 1.0.3 seem to have made a comeback in this version. Such apps included are Setup and News and Weather. Nothing that Titanium Backup can't fix, but still.
- Battery indicator is AOSP, while 1.0.3 had a different mod (I have no idea who it belongs to)
Again, thank you very much for making me a happy camper with my G2 all over again. Your work is much appreciated.
erichung, for confirmation sakes, there is no extended settings. Sorry
Well well it's nice to see this I have been waiting quite awhile. Many thanks for taking over the project. I can't wait to get this installed and give it a spin.

FIXED: Rebooted and works fine. Sorry guys
Nice to hear there's an update . Does anyone know if the build in FM radio is supported in this ROM? The previous G-lite didn't. Thanks....
Does not seem to support ext4 like previous version.
This is a ICS 4.0.3 AOSP Galaxy Nexus Rom completely built from source. The kernel is also built from source and it packaged in with the ROM. I try to keep everything as close to pure AOSP that I can. I added a few features that I wanted and prefer. This ROM is made for Speed and Stability. There are plenty of mods out there that you can add if you want, I rather have a solid base.
ModAGnex V-1-1 Features
AOSP Optimized lean kernel V-1
superuser & busybox built from source (working on adding bash for version v2)
Reboot options with Screenshot
HTC Soft Keys Mod with 1% battery mod
Wifi Tether unlocked (removed SPG.apk)
VZW Boot Animation
Sure I am forgetting more.....
ModAGnex V2-0 Change Log
Completely optimized
Lowered the animation times (less lag)
Disable error checking
Changed the Max framerate of the system to 240 fps
Remove software (CPU) rendering and use full PowerVR SGX 540 (GPU) rendering
New Optimized Kernel (credit to JT1134 for his help and repo)
Removed some code that was causing error's
Removed HTC Soft Keys Mod with 1% battery mod (Download from this thread http://rootzwiki.com...ery-mod-by-wjd/)
ModAGnex V3.0 Change Log
Added added 1% battery mod (icons kanged from Kejar)
Updated tuna kernel to 3.0.16 (By JT1134)
Lock screen has phone,text,camera,and lock options. (quad lockscreen mod)
Removed a lot of files that did not need to be there, saved space.
Restructured my vendor and the way the rom compiles (probably only noticeable to me and size)
Fixed some minor System Ui bugs that caused some lagging.
Tweaked auto brightness values.
And who knows whatever else I forgot......

For those who have tried this ROM how are things running so far. Its nice to have a more clean ROM, that yes I can add some tweaks to but speed and stability is my real goal.
Can we use SetCPU, are there any paticular mods that do not work with this ROM? I was looking to add a battery meter, and the added buttons for search and menu soft keys and maybe the blue soft keys option.
Beyond those three I would be pretty stock. I just wanted to check first.

Flashed the rom a few days ago and I like it so far but I have a question. I flashed some soft keys that I guess took away the search button but now the three remaining buttons seem too close and not uniform is there a way I can change it or somehow move them?

I'm running the alpha build 3 ROM w/3.0 kernel that hash put out and I am trying to incorporate the quick settings from the reloaded ROM.
I don't know if quick settings is the correct term, I am talking about the settings in the lower right corner on the software buttons that bring up the option to turn on wifi, brightness, bt etc.
I swapped systemui.apk and I lost software buttons, so i swapped the systemui.apk, framework-res.apk and framework.jar and it wont boot.
help
If I'm not mistaken, the framework-res and systemui on the current ICS roms are built from the Gingerbread tree. For Hashcode's rom they are made specifically for ICS. Depending on your skill level you could download Hashcode's source and edit it yourself. Otherwise, you'll have to wait for the developers to start working on their versions.

(To any visitors to this thread,
Please Rate this thread based on your reading and tweaks that I provided. If the rate is too low, that means I'm doing a bad job in here! If the rate goes down below 4 stars, I'll stop providing these tweaks! So, please excuse me. Please don't rate this thread with the only reason that I do not provide the tweaks for your rom, which you are using! I'm using my own time for this just like lots of other users. Only the thing that makes me more happy and get focused on this would be your rates and 'thanks' on this thread)
[Quick uptates]
I just found that some of the cpu tweaks are not working on current kernel. So it needs to be changed. The coming new version of Kobridge tweak pack v3.0 will have the adjustment on it. Because kernel does not suppot some cpu function, you may see no difference between the different mode of tweaks. v3.0 is coming soon!
What's this?
The flashable zip files including the build.prop (known as Super build.prop, thanks to Team ERA for naming it) for rooted stock based ROMs and other very useful init.d scripts.
I've started working on these tweaks from several month ago and created several tweak related threads -
Learn How to Run Init.d Scripts from Boot on the Epic 4G Touch
[Guide][init.d]How to run init.d scripts on boot + Best Battery Life
Extend your Battery Life - init.d, build.prop and everything
How to change wifi sleep idle timer - Tweak
Which ROMs supported?
Basically, these tweaks only work on stock based ICS Roms like Calkulin's (tested), sfhub's (tested), Agat's (tested), VeNuM_ICE_Rom (tested), Frankenstein's Ego (Tweaks on TeamERA thread), MIJJz BLEND ICS (not tested), AnaKonda Rom ICS (being tested), HyDrA (being tested), etc.... Do not flash this tweak on any other ROMs.
How to install?
Just go to the Recovery mode by press vol up + power at the same time and flash the zip file. To flash the zip file, you will need repacked kernel kernel like Rogue Recovery or sfhub's kernel plus.
Note: Be sure that you have your nandroid before doing anything. It is not required but recommended just in case. This flashable zip file don't format or erase anything but replace build.prop file, install-recovery.sh, install-recovery-orig.sh and init.d tweak files if there's already same named files.
So, before flashing this zip file, be sure that you make the backup files properly just for in case you want to go back.
What's going to be installed or replaced?
build.prop - Be sure that you have the same version of stocked based ROM. If you rom is different with the rom version in the title, you need to find a different build.prop which is based on your rom version.
install-recovery.sh, install-recovery-orig.sh - Thanks to sfhub. sfhub created this file originally to support the init.d scripts from stock or any other type of roms. If you are using sfhub's auto root tool, the original install-recovery.sh would be saved into install-recovery-orig.sh. So, be sure that make backup these files if those are already there. My flashable zip file will replace the existing install-recovery.sh and install-recovery-orig.sh files.
init.d - will be created if it's not there and will replace the existing same named files. Otherwise, tweak files will be placed into init.d folder.
busybox, sqlite3, zipalign will be placed into /system/xbin folder.
If you don't know what you're doing, please don't use this flashable zip file and ask first. I'm not responsible for any bricked pnones by using this tweak. So, do it with your own risk if you want to try.
Need more information? or for Q/A, please use my thread in here - Extend your Battery Life - init.d, build.prop and everything
Credit:
Big thanks to sfhub for this leaked rom. He is really quiet but taught me lots of things directly and indirectly thru XDA.
Calkulin - initially I got the idea about CPU tweaks through his tweaked ROMs. I've changed some of his tweaks when I applied into my CPU tweaks but the main concept is still following him.
VeNuM - Team VeNuM allowed me to use my tweaks against his Roms for his rom users. Special thanks to team VeNuM and their efforts!
tdunham for his great help and working with me to create flashable zip files. He also tested out Kobridge tweaks on Calkulin's 2v1.5 rom. Now he created the version 2.5 tweaks for Calk's rom (check out the second post)

What's in attchment?
Kobridge_xxxx_Tweaks_v2.4A.zip - aggressive tweak (all the tweaks are same, except cpu tweaks). Focused on more aggressive battery savings. So, sometimes you may see the lag time specially when you do the batch jobs. If you feel, it's kind of slow, use M tweak.
Kobridge_xxxx_Tweaks_v2.4M.zip - moderate tweak. should be fine for most cases and battery saving is still huge.
Update: Dropped one of screenshot because personal info was there.
Whoops - FE14 2.4M dropped also. Adding back...
Last screenshot added - more than 3 days. Huge drop at the last moment (phone call - check the signal bar )
Note:
For any previous stocked based ICS ROM users, you can use the most recent one but you will lose your current build related information. If you don't mind, flash the zip file that you want to use.
[Useful Hint]
If the batch job is taking long time when you use 'A' tweak, you can temporarily increase the CPU speed to maximum 1.2GHz by using a tool like System Tuner (Pro). By using this tool, if the job (something like removing bulk applications thru Rom Toolbox or backing up apps thru Titanium Backup) is slow, go to CPU settings and click the '+' button to increase the CPU speed until the job finished. After the job, just reset the CPU speed to 1GHz. In some case, the lag time is unavoidable because CPU is slowly trying to increase the CPU speed based on the CPU overload. If we make the CPU frequencies to be changed very fast, then it uses more battery. There's always pros and cons. If you use System Tuner (Pro), do not use the tweaks provided by System tuner pro with my tweaks in here.

New! [5/21/12] Calkulin's 2 v1.5 Kobridge Tweak All-In-One pack by TDunham
The same Kobridge Tweak pack v2.5 used in VeNuM is now available for Calkulin's 2 v1.5 Rom users!
The installation instruction is same as for VeNuM ICE RL5.5 in below.
All thanks should go to TDunham. Download link is available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658471&page=12 and post #112.
For FE10 Stock based Rom Users - added same flashable zip files based on FE10 build.prop
For FD26 Stock based Rom Users - added two flashable zip files based on FD26 build.prop
New! [5/21/12] VeNum_ICE_Rom_RL5.5
Customized VeNum_ICE_Rom RL5.5 Kobridge All-in-One pack is available now!
Kobridge tweak changes for VeNuM RL5.5:
* Added every Kobridge tweak files into one zip file.
* No need to download the Kobridge tweak files again at least tweak version stays same.
* Including VeNuM stock tweaks - you can go back to original VeNuM tweaks without manual backup
* Easy tweak mode changes through the other set of flashable zip files
* you don't even need to repacked kernel to run the init.d. This tweak is already including the init.d support
* and more...
How to install:
1. Choose one of the flashable zip files from attachment -
Kobridge_VeNuM_RL5.5_Tweaks_v2.5AF.zip - Aggressive First install
Kobridge_VeNuM_RL5.5_Tweaks_v2.5MF.zip - Moderate First install
Kobridge_VeNuM_RL5.5_Tweaks_v2.5PF.zip - Performance First install
2. Flash the 2.5xF from recovery.
3. Reboot
How to change the tweak mode:
1. do not download zip file again. Just go to kernel recovery mode (not stock kernel)
2. choose zip file from /sdcard/VeNuM_Tweaks
3. Flash and reboot
How to go back to VeNuM default tweaks -
1. same as changing tweak mode but choose Kobridge_VeNuM_RL5.5_Tweaks_v2.5S.zip file.
2. flash and reboot.
My recommendation to select the tweak mode is, first try 2.5P tweak and if it's accpetable, then try 2.5M and 2.5P... If the lag time is not acceptable for you, just stay with VeNuM default tweaks.
Performance (from fast to slow) -
VeNum default > 2.5P > 2.5M > 2.5A
Battery savings
VeNuM dafault < 2.5P < 2.5M < 2.5A
VeNuM_ICE_Rom_RL5.0 - Download Kobridge Tweaks for VeNuM and flash it. VeNuM's default files will be backed up /sdcard/Venum_Tweaks folder including build.prop and install-recovery.sh. I decided to only place my tweaks into init.d folder because lots of overlaps. If anyone want to run default VeNuM tweaks, copy/move those tweak files from /sdcard/Venum_Tweaks to /system/etc/init.d. Be sure that I also moved VeNuM's build.prop and install-recovery.sh files to /sdcard/Venum_Tweaks backup folder. So, to go back, just place the all files from backup to the right places and reboot.
AnaKonda_Rom_v1 - Download Kobridge Tweaks for AnaKonda rom and flash it. AnaKonda's default files will be backed up /sdcard/AnaKonda_Tweaks folder including build.prop. If anyone want to run default AnaKonda tweaks, copy/move those tweak files from /sdcard/AnaKonda_Tweaks to /system/etc/init.d. Be sure that I also moved AnaKonda's build.prop to /sdcard/AnaKonda_Tweaks backup folder. So, to go back, just place the all files from backup to the right places and reboot.
[Updates] oldest (top) -> newest (bottom)
* Blu Kuban Rom - Sorry Blu Kuban users. I spent couple of hours to check this Rom. It appears that Blu Kuban requires its own build.prop and there are lots of settings here and there. No one wouldn't able to support this rom except the Dev.
* Just checked out VeNuM_ICE_Rom_RL5.0 - It seems like there's no problem flashing kobridge tweaks into this rom. No conflicts on build.prop. After flashing, goto /system/etc/init.d folder and change the file permission of 1VeNuM1 & 9darky_zipalign to 644. For 2VenuM2 file, keep the permission 755. If this file's permission is not 755, do not change and just keep the same permission.
I saw many useful tweaks on 2VenuM2. So, I do not want to prevent this tweak running on boot. After changing the permission, reboot the phone one more time to run the tweaks selectively again.
* Update for VeNuM_ICE_Rom_RL5.0 - it's working but need some modification. I'm working to release the flashable zip file for this rom. Thanks to bigpeng for testing this tweak out on his phone. 5/19/12 Added flashable zip file.
* AnaKonda_Rom_v1 - Not been tested yet. Need someone to test. Please report if you are using AnaKonda rom and willing to test it. If you want to apply this tweak, do it with your own risk.
* Update for VeNuM_ICE_Rom_RL5.0 - 2.4.1P version released for test purpose. If you experience the lags on VeNuM, try this one.
* Tweaks for VeNuM ICE RL5.5 released (5/21/12)
* Tweaks for Calk's 2 v1.5 (FD26) AIO tweak pack release by TDunham (5/21/12)

Just saw Calk's thread. Going to jump into!
Edit: just added FE10/FD26 Tweaks at second post.
Question: if im on calk's 1.5 with fe10 kernel/modem, i need to install the zip for calk's ROM right?
Good stuff, thanks!

That's right. It's based on Rom version and not Kernel.
Just to 100% sure, if Im running Agat's tFE10_v0.1.0 Rooted, which of the 2 .zip files below should I run?
Also what is the difference between these 2 as they seem to be based on the same ROM version?
1) Kobridge_FE10_Tweaks_v2.4A.zip
2) Kobridge_FE10_Tweaks_v2.4M.zip

A - Aggressive power savings mode - slower than 2.4M but batter saving is huge
M - Moderate power savings mode - faster than 2.4A while still extending the battery life
I'm running Calks FD26 1.5 ROM, the aggressive tweak and had the 3 or so second lag before screen wake on an incoming phone call.
I only bring it up to get further input from other users running the aggressive tweak as I've only seen it reported once before. I'm going to stick with it to see how that issue goes since it only happened once so far with the new set of tweaks (and everything is going VERY well).
Please report any other issues as they occur for Kobridge please so he can address any ongoing problems. Cheers! TD

tdunham, thanks!
Since the script has been changed a little to fix that issue, please use the latest one in this thread. It would make your phone more responsive than previous tweak.
hey kobridge,
here's a suggestion but I could be way off..
why not take the build.prop out of the flashable zip since it is version specific and instead just have it as a txt document with only the tweaks. and have the user paste it at the bottom of their current build.prop.
that way you wouldn't need to create flashable zips for each new leak..
maybe I'm just thinking about this all sideways..
I always just chop out tweaks from the build.prop of roms and have a big list that I paste at the bottom of the build.prop on any rom I use..
anyway, once again big thanks for your contributions kobridge.

I've already considered that option but incorrect editing of build.prop could be a reason of boot loop.
What I'm thinking about is, we may need to separate the build.prop and any other tweaks. So, user can flash the other tweak files separately. For the build.prop, because it's rom dependant, I may need to create a new one each time while keeping the other tweaks same.
Definitely I'll think about this. Thanks for your suggestion, gershee!
Thanks Kobridge -- your battery tweaks are phenomenal! Looking forward to FE16!!
Posted last screenshot from FE14 at OP - couldn't spend more time on FE14 because have to move on to FE16.
Too busy... FE10 -> FE14 -> FE16 in just couple of days. Maybe some of my tweaks are useless because none uses the previous ROM. Hope FE16 stay a little longer.

wish I could use all your init.d tweaks but I'm aosp for life..
I've included my build.prop tweaks.. basically I compiled a list of tweaks I was able to find about a month ago.. I think I may have incorporated your initial release not sure, but probably many redundancies. just thought I'd share.. I usually just jam this whole file at the end of the my new fresh build.prop..
can't give proper credit cause I went thread to thread reading about tweaks and then rom to rom checking out the build.prop..
so I guess thank you xda..
https://www.box.com/shared/969572e708315f41598b
EDIT:
oops.. I guess the purpose of this was to see.. well I dunna.. maybe see if there are more tweaks?
I know I haven't had any boot loops cause I keep my original build.prop from my rom and simple add/override certain settings..
just trying to help/contribute.
EDIT2:
they aren't all battery related tweaks.. just giving an idea..

Couple of things for AOKP users.
1. build.prop needs to be updated since because AOKP check the build information during the boot. Based on build info, if it's not AOKP, phone wouldn't boot.
2. 31CPU tweak need to be modified or should not be used because it's causing a boot loop.
I've posted all this information in my original thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1625299

1. yea i use my original build.prop and add tweaks to it.
2. yea I did independent testing on aokp and posted results 2 weeks ago in your thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25677347
pretty sure 41tweaks broke boot for me too but I guess I'll have to try once again!
thanks..

One time, I tested it on AOKP build35. Because there's no way to check my tweaks on AOKP, I flashed AOKP to my phone and tested it out.
Build.prop and 31 tweak had the problem.
But again, currently I'm stick with stock based rom and I do not formally support AOKP or any other non-stock based ROMs.
