Very nice. i wish there should be an update fixing autofocus and other stuff.
Anyway i really hate cyanogenMod cause with so much "mods" its even worse than manufactures bloatware.
They do nothing except drinking batterie's power

And,the rom isn't custom, It's clean.

[fdespotovski]

The new version is out.There are some small fixes.Download ginger0511 or recovery0511 from the same link.And you should update your starpost.

The battery test is finally over. I got 5 full days without charging. I haven't used any tweaks. I must say that this is very impressive. Everything was stock on the rom, except setcpu and root explorer. The phone was overclocked at 806mhz max and 122mhz min frequency. Sadly, I still have that bug with the cpu speed. It's maxed @806mhz the most of the time. But I still got 5 full days without charge(with minimum to middle use). I think that this is very good. And, consider the fact that I used wifi, downloaded some apps(explorer, root explorer), listened to music and fm radio and made some phone calls. Here are some screenshots:


I know it says 4 days and 6 hours but it's actually five days. You can also notice that my up time is also good: 101 hours, 21 minutes and 8 seconds! I used the 0508 rom(correct me if I'm wrong), not the newest 0511 rom.

Looks clean and nice but my heart goes with CyanogenMod 7

Until Joestone fixes the CPU bug, I will stick with CM7 too.

I love the interface of this rom. It's so "clean". But I will stick with CM7 until Joe fixes the CPU bug.

Hi, I've been using this ROM for couple days and I think this is a good one.
I switched from Swiftdroid 2.0 M4 to this ROM because it's clean, faster and has much better (clear and loud) sound on speaker call.
I used speaker call a lot.

There has been a small update on boot.img for data2system version from Joestone.
It now supports iptables.

Tried it and had to charge the battery up 3 times in 24 hours with some pretty heavy use which is normal for me/ calls wifi youtube, gone back to Froyo Optimum v3

The cpu bug sucks up the battery.Joe needs to fix that.
