Hello All,
There are quite a few of us on the Telus Fascinate (T959D) that have gone through a number of upgrades and changes - with a lot of us now running Darkys ROM.
Wanted to post a general thread so we can share MODs and updates with another - tips for enhancements, etc.
Start sharing!
[Darky 10.2.2] >> [SensatioN Theme 1.8.1 JVQ]
Thanks for starting this Thread jpmccarthy!
I have successfully installed the 'SensatioN 1.8.1 JVQ' theme created by Crysis. I personally like the 'clean' feel of this theme along with some of the additional mods built into it:
- CRT screen animation
- Integrated 9 Lockscreens into the theme.
- Extended Power Menu with removed header
- New Battery
- Charging animation
- New Dropdown menu
- New layout for Dialer, Phone, Music Player
- Smaller progress bars
- Smoother, faster progress animation, flawlessly
- New signal and Wifi Icons - blue glow when non internet connection; green glow with internet connection
- New framework-res.apk images
- Over-scroll mod included
- And Much More!!
So basically if you had the EDT previously installed, there is no need for it now seeing that the additional Lock-screens where built into the theme.
These options are built into the actual 'System Settings' as 'TSM Lockscreen Menu' which is neat.
So far I have only encounter one issue, which is actually a known issue for some of the I9000 Roms (Darky's):
- The MIUI Lock screen will soft-boot your phone only when sliding the messages icon to unlock the phone. I do not use this anyways so it's no bother to me. Personally I like the new 'R2D2 Lock screen'
Installation:
The Steps I took to install SensatioN 1.8.1 JVQ running Darky 10.2.2 JVQ:
1.) Downloaded the 'SensatioN 1.8.1 JVQ' ZIP file and copied it over to the root of the Internal SD Card.
2.) Boot into recovery mode
3.) Delete Cache Partition: >> wipe cache partition >> Yes - Wipe Cache
4.) Delete Dalvik Cache: >> advanced >> Wipe Dalvik Cache
5.) Select Install ZIP from SD card and select the ZIP file.
Once the installation has completed, reboot your phone.
NOTE: The first reboot will take longer then usually so don't be alarmed.
I'm loving this theme. For additional information on this theme, please check out the following thread:

Sassy - I like that - might have to try it - is there a way to revert themes?
Also, much cooler if you would have got a screenshot of 'rock you like a hurricane' instead of wind of change (personally - I would have went for Dokken anyways!).
Also - what are you using for screenshots? I used to have shootme but lost it in my installs - and now cannot get it off the market anymore.

At the moment I don't think there is away to actually 'revert' back to Darky's original but they are currently working on an application for the Darky ROMs. The application is called Darky OTA which is still under development but it shouldn't be too much longer now
For more information on this application please check out the following:
http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/app-darkyota-application.5153/
I have already applied two other themes, one over the other without experiencing any issues but I wouldn't recommend doing this, I just got lucky I didn't Brick anything...Again
The screenshot application I am using is called 'Screen Capture Shortcut' and can be downloaded from the market here:
https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.tomorrowkey.android.screencaptureshortcutfree
I posted this in the other thread, but I'm posting it here again for people who haven't seen it: http://uot.dakra.lt/how_to/
It basically lets you cook your own theme from a variety of different icons, lock screens, battery indicators, and more. It works by using some framework files you extract from your phone, uploading to their site, and it churns out a CWM flashable zip containing the mods you chose.
I used the sensation theme before, but I actually prefer the homescreen dock of his Revolution theme here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000049
edit: To revert to darky's "stock" theme, just reflash the rom, using No Wipe option in the darky's app
edit4: fixed the screenshot of my homescreen
edit5: htc sense-like widgets are "Weather & Toggle Widgets" and "Weather Widget Forecast Addon"
[Darky 10.2.2] Glass Dialer & Boot Up
I do have the dark knight and rain bootup from Darkys as well (http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/bootanimations-goldies-collection.1316/)
And the black dialer (http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/final-glass-dialer-for-10-2-jvq-jvr-jvs.4607/)
Took some screens but have to find a place to put those
Anyone know where I can find a stock looking theme for DarkyROM 10.2.2 EE? The default looks kinda tacky and far too green for my liking. Ideally, I'd love the Galaxy S Gingerbread theme from the Telus ROM but am having trouble finding it.
Any help?

Actually I was using the dark knight and rain bootup screen at first but I found that it was pretty laggy / jittery on my phone, so i switched to the following:
It runs smooth as silk!

I completely agree with how you feel about the darky theme. I was in the same boat, trying to find the stock Telus theme to write over darkys, but unfortunately, I never found one.
I suggest cooking your own theme using the online kitchen I linked above and choosing the stock gingerbread icons/battery/etc and flashing that instead.
Also, use Touchwiz Launcher as opposed to the stock Gingerbread launcher that's used by default for darky's
Currently trying the SensatioN theme posted above. It's nice, but if I could figure out a way to turn off that terrible overglow mod and get kinetic bounce back, it'd be most excellent.
Still poking around for a stock GB theme though. If I find something, I'll post it.
Alright... Using this theme.
It's as close to stock Gingerbread as I can find. It still has that stupid Overscroll colour BS, but... overall the ROM doesn't look half assed.

Modem Mod
Have you guys altered your modems?
I just flashed the KC modem - easy to flash via the Darky Rom Tool. Not seeing any benefits - or any degradation for that matter. Will let you know as I continue to use it.
Had a few people indicate this is the preferred modem for Canada - and have had a few people flash that use our phones.

so using KC1 with no ill effects - I don't really have any benchmarks to compare, but my GPS seems to lock quicker, and mobile strength seems to be better - might be placebo
Might be placebo, but had a few guys recommend the KC1 modem so likely will be sticking with that (apparently it also fixes a wifi issue with the JVS ROM for Darky's - I have not yet tried that ROM though).
[Darky XXJVS Base] + [Honeycomb Related Theme]
After talking a bit with jpmccarthy yesterday, I made the decision to Install the XXJVS based DarkyROM. I did a bit of reading on it first and noticed that a number of people were complaining about issues there connection with 3G and Wireless dropping.
I will tell you now that I have had NO issues with my connections dropping, they seem pretty solid. BUT.. There is an issue with the Browser downloading .ZIP files for some reason, the error messages says that 'this type of file is not supported'..Which I find weird but I found a work around for now which works great.
I just installed the app "Download All Files", which basically allows your phone to download almost any file, any extension. Works great.
Other then that I have not run into any other issues on XXJVS.
I also went a head and installed this Honeycomb theme for XXJVS roms and I think I found a keeper! Screen shots below.
I installed it coming from Darkyrom 10.2.2 (JVQ) and used the Darky tool to install it.
Under the DarkyROM tab, the ONLY items I had checked were; Wipe User Data >> Install Kernel >> Install Modem. That's it.
Like I said above, I haven't run into any other major issues and I'm definitely liking JVS based darky rom.
Let me know if anyone has any questions.
Honeycomb theme I am using:

OK dude - need a link for that theme - love it!
Now iwebsource and I are on the new JVS with 2.3.5. So far - speed is INCREDIBLE!

Here is the Honeycomb theme I installed:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1172906
This theme doesn't contain any additional lock screens or doesn't change the look for the 'Contacts' app either so what I plan on doling is this:
1.) Going to Install the 'Blue Contacts' mod from the following URL:
http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/final-glass-dialer-for-10-2-jvq-jvr-jvs.4607/
2.) Going to install the AOSP Lockscreen from the following:
http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/mod-darkyrom-jvs-base-with-aosp-lockscreen.5574/
Also see you have the SwiftX keyboard - have to say that is my GO TO keyboard as well. They hooked me in with their free beta - bought it soon afterward. ) The blue definitely goes with your theme.
Still restoring apps from Titanium.
Only bug I've noticed - and its in the forums here as well as I noticed and logged it with 2.3.3 when I initially installed - but the timezone keeps going to western argentina (so eastern time while I am on Atlantic time). I have it manually tweaked for the moment - hoping it goes away like it did for 2.3.3 and eventually just *catches* on the right timezone.

HOW TO FLASH
Place the ROM on the root of your SD card.
Backup your apps using Titanium Backup.
Open ROM Manager (Downloadable from the market)
Choose "Install ROM from SD card". If after you flash and you have problems like force closes and you can't receive calls, wipe data/cache.
Let the phone sit for 5-10 minutes after booting.
Have fun!

There's no reason that it shouldn't, the kernel and the ROM both support it.

ytt3r - sorry, I didn't mean to rain on your parade - I didn't know tweaks were being made - so at first it just looked like a duplicate thread to me.
Just an FYI / observation - I posted this in icezar's darky's thread as well, but will post it here as it seems new users will flock to the new threads
I am getting much better signal strength with this setup:
ROM - Darky's V6
Kernel - Xcal v2.2.2
Modem - Telus JL3
Before flashing the JL3 modem, my signal strength was around -101dB using JK4 modem.
After flashing JL3, my signal went to -85dB 14asu - ridiculous increase if I may say so!
YMMV - but post your results!

I'm going to use the JK4 modem, for me battery life is more important than signal strength. I'll give JL3 a try though, and see how I like it. Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks, Bro!
It was your Rom that gave me the inspiration to try this! Only needed the time and the right tools, guess I found both! Now that the easy part's done, here's where it gets to be REAL work, adding in all the custom tweaks!

Looks pretty sweet man. I have a System font zip in my OP already made up as well if you want it for anyone that wants to change it back to stock. I think that font looks good though myself.. I wouldn't change it back lol.

Thanks! It's been a road, that's for sure! I've been poking around at the Java files for the Camera, and I'm thinking CM might have rolled it back, but since I just started compiling, I don't have any older versions to look at and compare. I tried older camera versions, but they are all setting at 2x .
Hey, ditch the test rom I sent you and DL the current Glass. I haven't looked at the icons yet, but once I have some time, I'll look 'em over and put them in!
I haven;t made too many changes to speed things up yet... One change in the paging files, reducing the max open items. Seemed to smooth things up a bit!
Cool! If it's kosher, I'll post a link in the OP so people can pick it up on your thread!
That font came from the Apple ! Looks pretty good on our phones!

Honey Comb Player added to Ginger Glass!
Just posted Ginger Glass 1.4a update! I replaced the stock music player with Honeycomb... Make sure you follow the instructions in the OP! Use the same Glass Gapps! Flash Over should work fine, but, as usual, if you run into problems do a full wipe and dalvik... There's also been a slight change in the app paging, makes the rom a bit snappier!
NOTE:
This will be the last release of my hand , personal stuff like kids and wife are the most important thing in my life.
I hope you enjoy my creations and some of you may continue what I started.
I would like to thank THOR and all the other testers and users for the feedback so I could make this .Always take a NANDROID backup before you flash anything

How it works:
-First download the "FLEXSTRIKER-R8-addON-FLASHER"
-In the addON-FLASHER all the apps are pressent so you need to delete the ones you don't want to have.
-You can open it (don't unzip) with winrar or something simular , go to system/app , there you find all the apps.
-Delet the ones you don't want and put the addON-FLASHER on your tablet and flash with cwm - reboot.
Apps that are in the "system APPS for use with addON-FLASHER" (for now only with blue icons)

Changelog:
19-jan-2012: BASE-2-R8 :new and final build of FLEXSTRIKER , crt animation on lockscreen and % battery mod.
22-jan-2012: addon flasher contains more system apps
27-jan-2012: added patch for the people that want solution fot FC on browser when using "search on page" options (there is a back site to it , please read in patches)
9-feb-2012: R9 released:Base rom got no more CRT animation and %battery due to the browser "search on page" FC.
Mods are still available with crt animation and patches , a small battery mod will be available if you want crt and % battery on stock look but remember then you got that little bug.
Added swype keyboard and SoundHound .
16-feb-2012: R9.5 released:
-Soundback , SoundHound and Lumiread are now in Data app so they can be removed like any app from the market.
-Maps , skype , EsFileexplorer,...... are all updated to latest version.
-Polaris Office bug fixed when opening word or pdf document.
-2New wallpapers in Base rom
-SwitchMe is added in data , very nice and good app for having multiple accounts on your tablet .
What you can do with this app:
Privacy - the most obvious benefit is that you can securely share one device among multiple users, which gives you privacy and peace of mind.
E-reading - whenever you want to read on your tablet but dont want any notifications or need any connectivity, just switch to an ereader profile.
Testing - if you are a developer, you can use profiles as clean sandboxes to test your applications and their interaction with the system.
Gaming – with multiple installations of Android on a single device, you can now play online MMOs as different characters.
Speed - the games your kids play slow down your tablet, but with SwitchMe you can easily create profiles without games or instant messengers.
Battery life - when the battery is low but there are important emails or documents to edit later, switch to a profile which only contains these essentials.
Warning for users:
Its critical to understand that incorrect use of this application can potentially harm your device. This can happen if you create and switch to a profile that
exceeds the available memory – switching into this profile will cause a boot loop as Android attempts to unsuccessfully build the Dalvik cache.
Before proceeding with use we strongly recommend that you perform a full nandroid backup through recovery.
UNOFFICIAL A2SD SOLUTIONS ARE NOT SUPPORTED, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
The Dev of this app contacted me to put this app on my rom with the promise of 100% support .
Support for this app can be found and asked here:SwitchMe support
19-feb-2012: added Polaris Office patch
All mods and addOns work on R9

BIG thanks to Williamfold , Vache , ezterry ,Crypted , THOR .
This rom was tested by 8 differend people and they did not had any problems with it . (xda app FC is the only thing , but if that is rom releated I don't think so , possible that some other random app don't work , but I don't feel like testing every app on the market. If you know any OS that is 100% stable please show it to me)
Please follow instal instructions !!!!!!!!!!!!
BIG thanks to my testers : Biggzz ; iamtek7 ; Rainbowbright081 ; fgcchevy ; The.Yield ; manu33xtro ; garbagecanman .
Again I'm a noob at these linux things , and I'm planning on staying a noob , it's just I like to mess around for my own rom and I wan't to share it with anyone that likes it.
I almost bricked my tab testing this rom but he that is the price you have to pay , lucky for me I always got a backup so people always take a nandroid backup !!!
Civato 2012 the mixer. Family and friends come first !!!!!

I freaking love this rom. Thanks Civato!!
Nice.. thumbs up for this.. will flash it later @ night.. So how's the stock kernel performs within the rom like the performance on battery or others?

On normal use it's good but oc is much faster.
Tweaks are a little different , so are modules because of the stock kernel.
But it still runs smooth.
Thanks go out to all of the A-holes that keep driving away all of the good devs or hobbiests or enthusiasts.
Thanks Civ, this ROM is excellent, people like me need people like you to get the most out of our devices.
I hope you stay in the game somewhere and I'm able to find out where .

Thanks m8 , enjoy it m8.
But don't start the hate , this is my goodbey m8.
Like I noted , let the white knights do the job they believe they can do better.
XDA is a good place and maybe mistakes have been made but the way a newbie like me got kicked at by some is stupid and I'm not putting time it that.
This is what the world is going for , me ,me, me look how big I am attitude and even here in a place where the rules are:
Flaming: XDA was founded as a group of people sharing information about certain mobile phones. Sharing does not involve virtual yelling (flaming) it does involve working together to solve problems in an environment of mutual respect and understanding. Losing your temper and flaming another member, or group of members, is not acceptable behavior.
Personal attacks, racial, political and/or religious discussions: XDA is a discussion forum about certain mobile phones. Mobile phones are not racial, political, religious or personally offensive, therefore none of these types of discussions are permitted on XDA.

Thanks m8 , but I think you should review the full version it is update to R6 but not at XDA in this thread.
R6 got ntfs support on custom kernel something that was lost ones you used a custom kernel.
Thor and me fixed that yesterday and it runs very smooth , so I think it is a first thing seen on custom kernel ntfs support without having to use drivemount. On stock kernel ntfs support is no problem for HC3.2. But now you can overclock and still have the ntfs support on R6.
This brings this rom to a other level.
Anyway gonna check out your review. THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EDIT;
I've watched it , it's nice but still think you need to review FLEXSTRIKER-R6 (not light version with OC kernel) this light R5 version is with stock kernel so no overclocking.
Civato:
I am currently on Honeylicious HC 3.2, can I update to your ROM? Will there be any problem if I followed your installation instruction? Oh, is your ROM overclockable?
Thanks

Ok first of all i have to say im not defenetly a dev...i have noone knowlage but i love pc's and phones and i like to testing thinks!!4-5 Days ago i release an ICS Theme for Kalo's B876 rom and i really liked it...so i make this rom that im changing the apk's that i themed and some minor other changes...such as i put tweaksv6 init.d folder not just the unlock_fps that kalo has and i change the launcher to Go Launcher ex that i thing is one of the most great launchers i really like the folders think..so this is is...this is based on 1.6 Kalo 2.3.6 Honor port rom i test it everything seems to work smooth after all is kalo's rom...i have tested a'lot of roms beleve me kalo's is the best rom you will find...i just make the Gingerbread a bit more beautiful...The way of flashing it is the normal...boot to CWM Recovery make all three wipes (Data,Cache,dalvik) formating /system under mounts is optional but im making it if you want to make it..and then flash the zip from your sd card or internal...
The sad think is that if you find any bugs i can't fix them but if you like the rom i can took again the new versions of kalos release and trasform them like this one...
I hope kalo is not mad with me i really like his rom and you should donate him so he keep his extreme great work that he is doing...after all he's all we've got!!
PREREQUISITES - ATTENTION PLEASE
cust.img into /.cust_backup/image/ path
Since the major part of system application are mounted into /cust folder, you must be sure (before flashing v1.7 or newer) that your phone has just the cust.img file.
You can verify with two methods:
1)With Root Explorer (navigate to /.cust_backup/image and verify if cust.img is there)
2)Putting the phone into Pink Screen Mode (then plug in your USB-microUSB cable and your pc will automount the /image folder, now you can verify if cust.img is inside that folder).
If you try to flash B876_Pika_b2.7_v1.7 (or newer releases) without cust.img file, you internal memory will get corrupted, you will brick your phone. Please double check before flashing!
Cust file download:http://kalo.googlecode.com/files/cust.img
----------
Localization Package (STEP3 UPDATE.APP)
Kalo's ROM requires that you have an International devices (no Chinese unicom/cn, no Russian channel/ru, no Italian vodafone/it).
You need to download UPDATE.APP, create a new folder into the root (upper level) of your external sdcard (or the internal one) and rename it into "dload". Then copy UPDATE.APP into /sdcard/dload and start the flash upgrade opening "Settings", "Storage", "Software Upgrade", "SD card Upgrade".
Your phone will automatically reboot into a flash software program and when it finishes your phone will reboot into Recovery.
Since now, your phone will not power on again, it will run only the bootanimation, so please don't try to reboot your device.
Now you can flash B876_Pika_b2.7_v1.7 or newer following the Installation procedure for full package.

Many thanks, at this moment I have removed GO Launcher, have "problems" slightly like LauncherPro e.g. wants guide you to the "GO Store" on "Play Store" for widgets and other things for purchase, so I've installed the new release of QQ Launcher (and "Regina Launcher" as alternate launcher ) just for try

Added the battery mods!!!flash them through CWM!!!!
downloading, thanks ;-)
please, do you have some suggestion for a good backup software that can save apps + settings for my "must have" five or six applications ?
I mean that I want restore in "one touch" at least (e.g.):
1) Super Keyboard ( the only keyboard that works great with my big fingers ;-) )
2) K-9 email for all my email accounts
3) tapatalk and/or forum runner
4) voice recognition engines
I'm tired to reconfigure all or restore apps using MyBackup or Titanium so.. simply looking for something that can restore "my basic setup and apps"..
I mean something that can backup on a "preset" basis and can replace the backup pressing one key if I want

Added final i guess notification changes now landscape has new ics style icons!!
UI on last version seems very slow. Is it because of 360 launcher? Cuz original Kalo's rom works lightning fast. In general great job!

UI works normal 360launcher is much faster than go launcher i didn't found any problem!
Anyway, after cleaning some autostart soft etc it's rather normal. But scrolling in system (not launcher) lists is slow for sure, original is faster.
Keep up developing this version, it's really pretty to see!
UPDT: Is tweakszv6 already applied or it should be done by users? Cuz I use it in all my roms

Hi everybody.
Before anything I'd like to say a few words (thank you). first of all, I know not many of you know me I have recently joined xda I have really enjoyed my time here its a great kinda thingy I dunno community/website whatever you call it guys. anyways I bought my first android phone like a year a ago but after a month I smashed it against the wall (that felt really awesome) but I bought another android phone (the galaxy ace s5830 again, roughly around one or two month ago since then I became really interested in android have done quiet a lot of research and stuff, so finally I came to the point where I decided to create (well I don't really call it creating till I code everything myself) my ROM. to be honest I spent days and days doing that till I managed to get into the shape that I wanted. So at last I Finished it here I present to you GingerIceCream (I don't know why we android fans like food so much).
So Guys this ROM is based on the CM7.2 nightly (made some other ones based on cm7 stable and the cm7 by vo-1 but the nightly is much better than all of them I tell you why later). and what I have done here is I have removed all the apps I thought wont be used and replaced most of default apps with other ones available (unfortunately I am limited cause I cant just use any app specially paid ones) also gathered all the script I thought would be nice to have in this ROM (just Adrenaline engine actually and added the beats audio files but I replaced the fx widget app with another one its a really light app which I think works better. Also I searched and searched and searched the whole world wide web to find all possible build.prop codes that could help making this ROM better honestly it actually worked which I thought wouldn't make much difference but did. and you get this nice GingerIce9 theme created by jasonevil, not from the galaxy ace forum (Somehow I found it) and other stuff which I will metion later. and yeah one thing that I actually created myself by myself which took me hours to do it (god damn it) is the bootanimation yay.
Features
Since I care about performance more than anything else myself I have done my best for this ROM to meet that target.
Stable as Cyanogenmod 7.2 stable even more actually
loads of crappy apps removed. (no offence to devs)
many default apps replaced e.g gallery3d is replaced with quickpic and android keyboard is replaced with Touchpal (lighter, uses less memo, and its smarter plus you get that swype as well.)
Holo launcher 1.1.1 is the default launcher now.
added the Mi file explorer (miui file explorer) its the default now.
Added jelly bean music player and removed the old one.
all Google apps are up to date now the latest Google play 3.7.13 and Voice and Google search box are updated too.
Superuser is updated too.
Added miui camera.
QQplayer is now the default video player. (unfortunately I failed to add adobe flash player to this rom :crying: so sorry!!!)
added kik messenger and dropbox and dolphin browser (dolphin is replaced wit UCbrowser in the final build) cause I use them a lot thought you may want to use them too.
You have now this app called equalizer to ... well equalize the output audio. This and beats audio put together would be monster beats.
And I have added tones of build.prop codes from all over the WWW to this ROM to ensure the best performance and (battttteeeerrrryyyy life)
GingerIce9 is the default theme, she is a beauty (in my point of view) thanks to the creator : jasonevil
and created a bootanimation just for this ROM.
Also replaced the default fonts with ubuntu fonts and animations with fly-in animations and locks are modified for this ROM all done using UOT kitchen thanks to them.
... etc.

LOOK at the CPU performance, have you ever scored that high (800, well I haven't). I/O will be increased up to nearly 6000 if you disable jit, but it will decrease CPU performance. you may also disable 16bit transparency i enabled it by default it could decrease the 2d performance.
What's new in the final version:
first of all it's final now, (if I get to activate bln I will upload a patch). Completely stable and fast as F-18 (don't believe me try it for yourself). So I rebuilt it based on latest nightly that was released yesterday. Some of the apps been removed/replaced . It no longer contains adrenaline engine or other scripts (and it's strongly recommended that you don't use scripts on this ROM since they may interfere with the default settings. surely you wont need any script or cache cleaner to make it better.)
Also systemUI and framework have been modified. (you can see the results in the pics above). Dolphin is replaced with UCbrowser once you use it you will understand the true meaning of smart browsing. Miui camera Added it's the best replacement for stock camera. Some of the apps were updated. And build.prop is extremely modified for galaxy ace and this ROM, you will be completely blown away by the Smoothness and speed of this ROM, you will clearly see the difference. I guarantee that.
Installation Please follow the installation procedure to ensure everything will be the way it's supposed to
1. Copy the .zip file you have downloaded to your SD card.
2. Reboot into recovery
3.(a) Do a complete wipe (data factory reset, cache partition, >>> Dalivk cache <<< (under advance)

Looking good, could you make a version with blue status bar icons (like ICS ones), I'm assuming this is deodexed systemUI and framework.res

Yeah I could do but you know that's the whole point about this ROM that its green instead of blue however I'll get you the blue one if you want.
NiiiiiCe ROM Good Job
but there is a bug, I think.
After I flashed the ROM and installed S2E to move the apps, data and cache to sd-ext partition I rebooted the phone I get multiple FCs :/
I can't even use the phone, I tried to do it 3 times, No luck. each time I get the multiple FCs after I insert the PIN code.
Any Solution?
