Have you tried this? I'm quite happy on a rooted stock KE7 ROM and don't intend to mess around with custom ROMs. However, I would consider a new kernel and the upgrade to 2.3.4.

Yes. I have a deodexed version installed with my custom power menu.

Works great!

Will be posting the stock deodexed version with power menu later this week.

Hi, is this a wipe or no-wipe ROM ?

Or better, is there any way to know it directly from rom content or from samfirmware ?

When I installed it, I noticed it formatted a lot of partitions including /data.

It did not matter to me since I had already done a factory reset, wiped the cache and dalvik-cache after doing a complete backup with Titanium backup and Sprite backup.

I updated mine with XDA's stock KG2 with 2.3.4 and it was a no-wipe install.

Still testing it :)

That's good news. Like I said - I backed up everything, did a wipe, then installed KG2.

I prefer doing this to ensure things works ok. Restoration of apps is easy when using

Titanium Backup - takes less than 5 mins to restore.
