WHAT IS BOCA??
BOCA is a unique 2.3.4 GB based SGT gsm rom,
built from source, by me, torn apart and injected with steroids.
BOCA strives to be a nitrous style Hot-Rod Engine rom, with abilities
to be uniquely user modified using the NEW Tweakr system.

I built everything from source in this rom,
and it is designed to look unique right out of the box.
(Feel free to change the theme. Menu/more/vtl settings/themes)
It is heavily themed, and every one was placed
by hand one at a time.

****all aosp and cm bugs apply to BOCA, which I have whittled down to back camera video record. Use qik for Samsung. (Only works for BOCA! Not "the other")

Changelog

8/11/2011
v2 (BOCA HERETIC) is rolling out to contributors today (if i missed u, let me know know!)
Now lets see if they come back with any huge issues, then ill get it out to the rest in a few days
change log to follow upon general release


8/2/2011
began re-building v2 today.
It will be the first advertised 2.3.5 base for the Sgt!!
it will also merge with Linux kernel up to 2.6.35.12!!

since miui icons won by such a long shot, I will make a v2 that looks as close as I can, to MIUI.
With my own unique twist, of course! Its only around 3000 individual mods! Takes time.
(Its not miui yet, so only so much I can do. )

& if you haven't yet received a link to new downloads, AND you are a BOCA contributor, pm me

7/27/2011
VOTE on v2 icons now!! MIUI IS THE WINNER!!
http://magrathearoms.weebly.com/

Go there now to VOTE!!
But choose wisely, you can only vote once!

Also, ill be settling in there, as a homebase. XDA will be my second home, or home away from home.
My goal is to have a home just for Boca. Whether it be for the tab only, or multiple devices in the future.
Its not so much now, but it will be a great place in the future! I have alot of unique ideas.
And from a homebase, ill be able to implement user thank yous, and have more creative control.
Plus. You'll get better support!

7/20/2011
(DO NOT ask v2 release date, it is ready when its ready-I'm only one person)
-initial tests for unreleased upgrades in v2 reports-
*indicate a 30-40% ui speed and 40-50% responce increase, over v1.5
*mirrors stock GB mount points
*average MFLOPS 20.267 (averaged from 15 tests using linpack pro)
*quadrant professional returns consecutive low 3100/3200's
√more goodness is being tested

BOCA is important to me, and with reviews, tips and help from you great XDA users, BOCA can only get better!
1.5 has different fonts than the initial high voltage release. Did u try after update? Those fonts wete abit over the top for some.
Vtl is mostly Adw theme compatable. Try menu/more/vtl settings/themes. Not all work, but most do.
Also there is a cleaner version up now, also. So 2 versions. 1 with purple and green boca theme, one gb stock colors
also, all boca will have different stock app icons than what you are usrd to. THEESE are boca stock.

I am sorry everything isnt perfect yet. Im doing it all as a one man team. It is a HUGE task.
Im building this rom from code. Then compiling it.
I dont just switch out apps from anouther rom. I would need their source code, (and permission) to intigrate it into my code so it would be in the build.
Most if not all issues, at this point, arrise from the current kernel. The ONLY source avaiible for initial kernel was not a good one.
But i hope to move from that source ASAP
If there are any crack cm kernel builders out there, i could use the help!

Technical Explanations

*frame BUFFER rate*
frame buffer rate has no dependency on refresh rate,
frame buffer or frames per second. Frame buffer is
used to buffer frames which are pre rendered waiting
to be displayed. This buffer is used between the cpu
and gpu. And creates a better graphic and LCD display quality and
smother video/game play images.

*fugutweaks*
This tweak adds massive responsiveness to your tab.
This mod will not affect your battery in anyway.

*tablet tweaks*
The single most amazing tablet mod ever.
You can now move your status bar to the bottom,
add all of your soft button to the on screen status bar,
honeycomb style! Go to setting/cyanogen/tablet tweaks.
Place icons in status bar, choose which ones
and never need your hard buttons again!

*tweaKr*
Highly recommended only for dev's, but anyone can use.
tweaKr is a menu driven shell script that gives
the user an easy means of adjusting common
tuning options of the Android/Linux system.

tweaKr makes most if not all market CPU apps obsolete.
no longer waste your tabs space or drain your wallet,
or abuse your tabs RAM with alternative app preloading,
and running in the background.
Make live changes to BOCA at any time.
Enjoy this first time ever expierence! tweaKr is free and preloaded!
