Guest quaker02 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Posted February 24, 2013 hello. two questions about this rom please, for the people that used both, how does v9 this rom compare with stock+ in terms of responsiveness and smoothness? spent hours yesterday customizing stock+ b960 so don't really want to wipe everything only to find out maybe stock+ was faster and redo everything... also, does it allow for mms to be sent and received without having to enable data? thank you :)

Guest relvas18 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Posted February 24, 2013 The rom has stock kernel, but if you install Paul's kernel you don't need to "Pimp" to have init.d support. My idea is to make a rom as minimal as possible so users can add what they want to customize it. Initially I didn't post it here since there already were so many good roms in Modaco, and now that there is this thread I don't think it's needed to make a new one. Here is a screenshot with the new battery icon, if you dont like it just replace the file /system/app/SystemUI.apk with the one from v8 (if enough users ask for this I'll make an addon :P). I replace SystemUI.apk and now my phone is always crash
Guest quaker02 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Posted February 24, 2013 i used slim rom for a few days, now i'm on stock+ b960 since one day and i find stock+ a little smoother & battery is better also so i recommend stock+ ended up installing it anyway, was pretty surprised of how jerky it was especially when everyone was saying of how fast it is.. not a bad rom from what i gathered but went back to stock+ anyway. thanks :)
Guest TangerineTractor Posted February 24, 2013 Report Posted February 24, 2013 (edited) interesting. downloading now. v8 was definitely the fastest my phone has ever run... = v9 not as fast as v8 for me... interesting that apps like opera mobile and falcon on v8 stay loaded indefinitely, but on v9 (and stock+) they close after a while on standby. this is noticeable because the apps take a few seconds to reload, which they don't do on v8. So something has changed on the memory management. Edited February 24, 2013 by TangerineTractor

Guest jsevi83 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Posted February 24, 2013 Ok, v10 released, I reverted some of the chages in v9: back to v8 battery icon, back to gapps from B952, undo some tweaks. Hope this works better for you.

Guest TangerineTractor Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 I am never going to get any sleep! that's much better! very fast, overclock with Paul's kernel to 1.19. Apps stay loaded longer, very responsive, very quick. No issues at all. Nice job! Muchas gracias.
Guest mnirun Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 I like v9 :) Works great, no issue found, thanks for great rom !

Guest TangerineTractor Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 whats the difference between v9 and v10? I'm using v8. v9 wasn't as fast as v8 for me. v10 is at least as fast as v8 if not faster.
Guest yaqh Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 v9 wasn't as fast as v8 for me. v10 is at least as fast as v8 if not faster. ok thanks, now wondering if i should go back and try this after new stock+
Guest TangerineTractor Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 this is faster and smoother than stock+ for me.
Guest kyan31 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 You should probably add in the OP who made the ROM, all devs like credit :P
Guest TangerineTractor Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 the op clearly states it's a link to the original thread. the dev only came in here after I posted the link and has not complained.
Guest ptoner Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 (edited) Anyone else still find v8 faster than v9 or v10? Edited February 25, 2013 by ptoner
Guest TangerineTractor Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 Anyone else still find v8 faster than v9 or v10? possibly... un tweaked.. but add kernel and supremacy script like on v8 and it flies.
Guest ptoner Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 Already done that. Will do another benchmark and see what I turns up this time.
Guest glassblower Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 (edited) I've been messing around with various ROM's on here. I must thank all the developers for their hard work making them happen. I've settled on this slim ROM because it works best for me on my G300. I would have stayed with Stock+ but bbc iplayer won't work for me on that rom. The setup that works best for me is this v10 slim rom and paulmilbank's #19 kernel. The swiftkey keyboard is a bit laggy when the #15 kernel is used with the slim rom but #19 works absolutely perfectly. Wifi & bluetooth hands free car set both working as they should. Processor speed set to 1.15 using no frills cpu. Lovely work. Thanks again. Neil PS #19 kernel is here http://www.mediafire...3d0irtycdyybw7x or here http://www.mediafire...bflssflvs9bpb9y **Perhaps someone could help here, both the links above point to a #19 kernel but one says test. Which is the latest and which is best to use? Edited February 25, 2013 by glassblower
Guest ptoner Posted February 26, 2013 Report Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) One of them is labelled "test" the other "19". I installed the "test" kernel by accident. No issues. But will open the packet now and see if I can discover anything about it. Might go back and flash the "19" one tho. Where did you get the links from? PS the "Test" flash seems to be a bootloader...? Both are... *************************************************** Android 4.0.3 for Huawei U8815 simple boot image updater created by Omegamoon visit www.omegamoon.com for updates ****************************************************** Noticed no difference in Benchmark scores between them. Edited February 26, 2013 by ptoner
Guest glassblower Posted February 26, 2013 Report Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) The links were from this forum. I'm running #19 test with slim v10 and all is well. I'm not an expert on this stuff so sorry, I don't understand what you mean by the test flash being a bootloader. I'm pretty sure the latest ics stock+ showed up in the menus as running #19 test kernel. Neil Edited February 26, 2013 by glassblower
Guest PCTechRoss Posted February 26, 2013 Report Posted February 26, 2013 Pofile via toggle notification bar work for me but screenshot it not. How did you get your 'dock' like that
Guest grabster Posted February 26, 2013 Report Posted February 26, 2013 Running v10 and liking it. Been using infusion for ages and use the walkman player constantly so i dont want to switch players. I have tried various apk's and zips but i still cant install the walkman app . Anyone tried and got it working ?
