Installation Instructions:

First time user
Download the ROM, and put it on your SD card
Boot into recovery
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Choose zip and then choose the rom
Reboot
If using TWRP, do not allow it to fix root if it prompts you to. Root is fine on this ROM.
- If coming from another version of Lightning ROM
- Wipe cache
- Wipe Dalvik cache
- Choose zip and then choose the ROM
- Reboot
- If using TWRP, do not allow it to fix root if it prompts you to. Root is fine on this ROM.
The first boot takes longer, so have patience. I recommend giving the device 5 minutes before you use it, to ensure a smooth experience.

If you enjoy this ROM, please press the +1 button. It's free. I put a lot of effort into creating this, so please support me. It motivates me to continue working :D

You can also +1 the FAQ if you haven't already as it gives me a better rep :P

Thanks :)

Fixes

OTA Update Fixer:

If your SD card is sdcard2, not sdcard, use this tweak to change the OTA installation directory to sdcard2.

DOWNLOAD

Smoothness Tweak Remover

If you have more slowdowns compared to the other Lightning releases, it might be due to the smoothness tweak. Use this fix to remove it, and the phone should have identical performance to the previous lightning versions. In most cases, the tweak works fabulously, so hopefully it wont be a problem :P

DOWNLOAD

CM9 Keyboard

Lightning ROM 3.5+ have the CM9 keyboard already built in, but if you are using an older release, flash this to enable the CM9 keyboard on your phone. Thanks Tillaz for sending me the CM9 keyboard :)

Miscellaneous

FAQ

Q: Will I still have my 'Link2int' apps after an OTA update?

A: No, as the OTA update will remove Link2int and 'may' wipe the internal storage. If you are brave enough, you can try the update anyway, but I can't guarantee Link2Int still being there after it's done.

Q: The OTA update wont download! What's the problem?

A: My OTA servers are based on Solidfiles, so if Solidfiles doesn't work for you, the OTA update wont work either.

Q: I cant download any of the addons as they are all uploaded to Solidfiles! Do you have a mirror?

A: I sure do, HERE you go. The zip itself is not flashable, but it's contents are. The zip contains most of the addons available for Lightning!

Q: How can I send MMS messages without enabling data?

A: You need to change this in build.prop from false to true
ro.config.hw_always_allow_mms=false
Q: How do I remove that annoying "WiFi disconnected" message? A: You need to change this in build.prop from true to false
ro.config.hw_remindwifitopdp=true[/code]
The XDA thread is HERE if you need more information about it.

Thanks [color=#008000]PcTechRoss[/color] for the wallpapers :)

Nope, not yet. Hopefully i will add them in the next release. P.s I hope the ROM works well ;). Please post your feedback after using the ROM, it will help me when releasing future updates.

HI,

I got an error when rebooting from CWM, something to do with root/SU. I clicked back and didnt read all unfortunately. I imagine its related to what you have put in the OP.

Seems really quick based on these first few minutes of use. Ill let you know how it goes.

Edited January 9, 2013 by sssingletrack

January 9, 2013

Flashed the SU fix you posted, now I have no superuser app at all.

Not sure whats happened there.

EDIT - app doesnt appear but when access is requested the notification appears.

You need to download Super-SU from the play store. Its free:

https://play.google....e.supersu&hl=en

I will update the OP so everyone is aware. Can you confirm working root?

Yes, root is working.

Recomendation for your next release would be to use the toggles, messaging, clock and home from the Huawei P1 apps.

The messaging and home are really smooth on this.

OK, thanks for the ideas. I might just make a flashable zip for the P1 apps as I dont think everyone wants them.

EDIT: Which file contains the toggles?

Edited January 9, 2013 by kyan31

I'm actually running CM9 right now, give me 15 mins so i can install lightning ROM and i'll see if there is any caller ID lag.

I do use this ROM, but I have all my apps installed on my CM9 nandroid backup. I cant be bothered to restore everything as i'm lazy :P

January 9, 2013

they are under a seperate folder. cust, I believe then hw then delapps (i think) called deskclock

Sorry for my english

The phone app opens fast as all the apps are zipaligned. There isn't any lag when opening built in apps. The JB transitions are also smooth :). Make a nandroid backup of your current ROM and try this out, so you can see for yourself. All of the G300's vary in performance.

yep

Okay, thanks. I'll make a flashable zip for you right now, and I may add the toolbox.apk to the 2nd release of this ROM if it has good toggles.

EDIT: I'm uploading the flashable zip for you now. It contains:

HwLauncher6.apk

HwMessage.apk

HwDeskClock.apk

HwToolBox.apk

If the toggles work, could you post a screenshot for me :). Power button + Volume down lets you take a sceenshot.

Uploaded ^_^ HERE is the link
