Guest Coldbird Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Im currently running Modaco Froyo Alpha 3. Is it worth the upgrade? Any things I should know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Frankish Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 If you have the beta kernel still then yes definitely worth the change. It's based on a release rom not a beta rom. It now has a kernel compiled from source with the option of overclock. Plus kallte is quick to fix issues. Paul supports too many devices and is a busy bloke so doesn't have the time to focus mainly on the Blade. As much as he does a great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest treschi Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Coldbird asked for Froyo-Roms, Pauls R4 is Eclair (2.1)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Frankish Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 (edited) Personally I wouldent touch jap. Jelly pauls. R4 way b etter In what way? Don't say just that, give reasons. Japanese Jellyfish plus points. Don't have to pay to get newest version straight away. Overclockable. Kernel compiled from source. Rom is a release version. Stock lockscreen as default. Fast updates. Modaco minus points. Have to pay for newest version straight away. Beta kernel. Beta rom. ZTE lockscreen yuk! Paul supports loads of devices so not always working on Modaco Blade rom. EDIT: Good point i thought he said alpha 4. Edited January 9, 2011 by Frankish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gerson2k Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Personally I wouldent touch jap. Jelly pauls. R4 way b etter I've still using Paul's r4 and not upgraded as I don't have time atm to look at all the different 'flavours' on offer, but even I would make such a comment without even trying it - have you tried KK's Jap Jelly - that is based on the official Kernal release?

Guest StevenHarperUK Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 - have you tried KK's Jap Jelly - that is based on the official Kernal release? No it's better than that - It's based on a proper Build from source of the ZTE Kernel release And It's had some work already (in source code) to improve it.

Guest UncleFista Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 I'm using Paul's alpha5, I flashed the new kernel to it (thanks to Flibble) and it works perfectly, if I were the OP I'd do a nandroid backup and try the new kernel :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest majnu Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 I've been using all the Jap Jelly ROMS, personally I think it is a battery killer. For some reason unknown to me it just kills my battery with little or no usage. I'm using Fibbles ROM atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Matthew Ferguson Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Im currently running Modaco Froyo Alpha 3. Is it worth the upgrade? Any things I should know? It's definitely worth an upgrade to Jellyfish from the Alpha froyo, a lot of the issues have been fixed that are present in that rom, and depending on whether you're using the new kernel or not, it's also a lot more stable, I'd give RLS6 a go if I were you.

Guest heavyduty00 Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 what is stock lockscreen? can you have a different wallpaper in ur lockscreen to homescreen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StevenHarperUK Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 what is stock lockscreen? can you have a different wallpaper in ur lockscreen to homescreen? A stock lockscreen is the one shipped with stock Android - You drag one way for Unlock, the Other way for mute The feature of having a different lock wallpaper was a feature of the Orange launcher - I don't know another launcher with this feature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, no overclocking on Jellyfish but I found it really laggy at times where now I have Fibs ROM and its amazingly smooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest squidlr Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 This RLS6 rom seems the most complete that I have used so far, moving from FLB rom which I used for the past 2 months. GPS and AGPS seem to be fine and the rom looks great with the Gingerbread theme applied - it's almost like having a new phone. I'd prefer the stock Android dialer though.

Guest lixcab Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 I changed ROM from MoDaCo because I was having screen freezes. I'm now using JJRLS6 in the hopes that I won't get freezes any more. I do like the Overclock with JJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need to "pay for" the new version straightaway, if you're a donator you get it free :D Flibblesans new kernel works pefectly with it. ZTE lockscreen is a choice in the kitchen, so a plus rather than a minus :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
