This ROM is based on the latest generic update ICS_P772N10V1.0.0B10. ZTE apps have been removed or replaced with CM/AOSP apps where necessary. Most of the ZTE customizations have been removed to give this ROM a clean AOSP look.

It's more of a toy than cellphone really. Still planning on getting a Nexus 4 (if/when it comes available in my country with a reasonable price tag).

Yeah, I understand your philosphy of it being a "toy". Developing must be fun, I should learn more programming languages other than C and Java lol

awesome.

KonstaT what is it capable of decoding? 720p h264?

[flibblesan]

Wow. I completely forgot about the ZTE Blade III. Nice to see that it got an official ICS update. Oh and welcome to your new Blade 3 forum

Lol, I have no idea. Qualcomm spec sheet says msm7x27a is capable of FWVGA video (854x480), but I guess that's for encoding though.

Blade 3 is actually rather new device that was released with ICS. It's the new crap-end device in their lineup.

Thanks for the forum section.

NIce, finally we got new kernel and rom.................

[GizmoTheGreen]

Rom seems to work very well for me so far keep up the good job KonstaT

[kk75]

Many many thanks KonstaT ! Great rom, and much better than original. Lower cpu and memory usage and better performance. Your Blade 1 rom Swedish Snow7 was my favorit, and now this is the best rom for Blade 3. Please continue.. Best Regards. kk75 from Hungary.

[zecinikolaz]

I hope that soon we will get cyanogenmod, miui and similar roms, even in jb version

[GizmoTheGreen]

I was thinking of maybe having a hand at an miui port. but I've never done any such thing before, I'd need to set up a linux environment, th android sdk and patchrom.

sounds simple enough but we'll see...

Hi, thanks for the Rom!
Just a question... Shouldn't we supposed to Wipe data and freset before we install the rom? Thanks!
