I take no responsibility for any harm that comes to your phone as a result of applying this mod.
Rom based on Official B160.
Features
Kernel from genolokar (available here), see note 1 below for overclocking info.
Rooted and latest SuperUser
Native froyo wifi tethering
WyContacts 1.2 and XDA Dialer 30.1 (turn to silence, blacklist, many other features)
CM 6.1 Email app and wallpapers
Launcher Pro 0.8.5
Some build.prop tweaks
Same enhancements that are claimed for B160 (better call quality, better wireless, better camera)
Installation will not format /data or remove apps from /cust. For some roms (unicom in particular) this will cause problems due to some incompatibilities, and will require a factory reset to function correctly.
BIG THANKS to genokolar for creating the new kernel
Requirements
Clockworkmod recovery (available here)
Should be compatible with all rom and cust versions, though as stated some will require a factory reset. Please post your findings.
Downloads
Complete rom with all fixes and 1.5Ghz kernel: http://www.multiupload.com/0HR8W3BMUR (updated 15/5/11)
Update with all fixes and 1.5GHz kernel http://www.multiupload.com/OISOHEHTDP
1.8Ghz Kernel (use above download to revert to 1.5GHz kernel): http://www.multiupload.com/T7C4N0Q1CQ
Installation
Copy update.zip to your sdcard
Boot to clockworkmod recovery
(Optional) Perform a full backup [see note 2]. After backing up reboot recovery (in the advanced menu)
Apply update from sdcard
After update is compete wipe dalvik cache (in the advanced menu)
Reboot to system. First boot will be slow as it rebuilds the dalvik cache so be patient, successive boots will be back to normal.
(Optional) If everything is fine delete the backup from step 3 and if you like do another backup
Notes
By default the kernel is set to the default cpu governor and clock speed. If you would like to overclock I suggest using setcpu (available here)
Be aware that after applying this you won't be able to restore the full backup unless you either revert to the original rom, or change the boot image. The purpose of the backup is instead to have a backup of /data just in case something goes wrong.
Not good with CUSTC205D001 Finland Elisa, swype force closes constantly
That's a shame, can you try deleting libswypecore.so from /system/lib ?
Great rom. My phone has no problems with 1.5ghz launcher pro is an awesome inclusion I l love the sideways home screen.

When first boot takes over 30min what do you recommend?
EDIT: Power Cycle did the trick. I did a batterystats wipe and fixed permissons before first boot maybe thats why it hanged. I upgraded from general to stockwells 136 and then this.
Thanks for this great ROM!
The only thing I noticed is that the camera has bad colors. Can somone confirm?
Thanks!

What's the procedure we should use for updating?
First off thanks to the people who suggested the gfree way it work perfectly second Imma a gamer I like to play a lot of hd games and emulators on my touch what I want to know is which kernel is the best for this and for overlooking second how do I flash a kernel /Rom and when I flash will I have to delete my data like apps games contacts and such sorry for all the questions haven't done this stuff yet very egared by the way
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
When you flash its just like your getting a new phone and signing in all over again. For gaming you might want to check out asop rom like royal ginger for the speed and the kernel that's built in.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Make sure to read the first few posts in the rom and kernel threads-most will give explicit instructions on what you need to wipe through clockwork mod and how to do so. Most also will state the initial boot time to take awhile, so make sure to let it sit and do its thing. As far as backing up data, I prefer my backup root but titanium has its benefits as well. I recommend only backing up app data that you need, like games, etc. to conserve space on your sd card. Then like stated above, you will have to set the phone back up like when you first got it and then restore your apps/data...
Ok so any saved games like assassins creed or mobile combat will yo progress in that game be saved or will u have to start over*

Oh really thank u very much & also can I just flash a kernel for overclocking I very pleased wit my go launcher HD IOS theme an others
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Yes, just make sure the kernel states it its for your specific rom-i.e. don't flash a cm kernel to a sense rom and vise versa...try to read through the posts in the thread (or search the thread) if you are unsure. Just make sure to follow the op instructions to a t.
Thanks for the info can u give me any recommendation / links
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
You have rooted stock mysense 2.2.1 correct? Try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941141&highlight=Sense+kernel
Again, make sure you read the op a few times so you have instructions down. Also, when you download the kernel, make sure the file size matches the size stated on the download page...occasionally you get a bad download and when you try to flash, it says aborted or something...
And just to be safe...download rom manager from the market, open it (allow su access), at the very top, press "flash clockwork mod recovery-once that is done, right below it says "reboot into recovery", press that...you will now be rebooted into recovery where you should flash your kernel and rom zips from at all times to help eliminate issues. Once you are in recovery, make a backup (usually called a nandroid)! It is always recommended before flashing anything to make/have a backup just in case something goes wrong. After that, just folklore whatever instructions were listed in the op and enjoy!
Yes I have root mysense 2.2.1 lol I read the op still nervous I download Rom manager yesterday and install clock thingy (forgot name ) ok lol anyways I was a little confused when reading not about what to do but which version to download ?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Also when I flash the kernel all data will be deleted like when flashing a Rom so back up wit Titb ? An I was thinking if all data is deleted wouldn't the back up data be deleted as well or is that on the SD card ?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
If you want better battery, go with cfs-better performance go with bfs. As far as voltage, try the lv kernel first and if you run into some issues, then go with stock voltage. As far as data, when you flash a kernel, you are just wiping cache and dalvik cache-not your data. You are just replacing a piece in a puzzle so to speak and not the whole thing (if that makes sense). Anytime you are flashing things, you should have a backup made just in case, but your data should be ok...
Um I still don kno which one to chose . Which one u think I will prefer u kno what I use my phone for 80% gaming / 10% textin / 10 % internet surfing
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Try the bfs low voltage....if things aren't silky smooth, than use stock voltage. You can get set cpu from the xda forum-just do a search for it or you can but it in the market which is what I did-this will allow you to over clock or under clock and you probably want to use performance scaling (governor) when gaming or just set the scaling to on demand-you will have to play with it to figure out what works best for you. Just make sure you hit menu> device selection> auto detect after you install the kernel....
I have set CPU all ready Um by accident I downloaded this app called tasker every heard of it how to use it for best performance or is that what its used for

1.Reflash the ROM (do chalk the sd-card folder paste etc),
2.update again just after flashing v8.0
3.Install setCPU, set governor scaling to conservative.
4.Enjoy your smooth & fast phone.
5.Never post new thread again if there's already a dedicated thread for it, you
should have asked in the official kyrillos feedback thread.

Swap acts like an additional RAM but incase you create a swap partition, then the extra RAM Space is on your sdcard.
Swap is not really needed. It takes about 4 hrs for my G3 to get completely charged. I guess that is normal.
Reflash you ROM and do the steps as said above. I would suggest using 83-1000 profile and using the "on demand" governor.
Follow the steps on using hybrid a2sd on kyrillos thread. It works fine for me.

This looks very promising. We should have this thread be a central location to report tweaks that do/do not work all that well with our Epics.
HDPI it is.
Great find, some tweaks worked for me and others did not. I'm not seeing any difference in music performance after flashing the sony walkman tweaks.

Yeah I found it on youtube by some dev called smokey droid I think. He also had a video about free magic jack that doesn't use your minutes in the google play store. Anyone that can see tweaks or mods that don't work just let us know in the thread or pm me and I will get it in the op. Thanks guys

In the GUI a lot of stuff didn't show up such as themes inverted Google apps etc.... But I can say which is funny I use the battery saving mod and when my phone turns back on its at 1% it was at 42% don't know how it dropped 41%.
Sent from your phone.....turn around.....
So, I'm not sure of the culprit yet, but I enabled
all of the Init.d tweaks
all of the build.prop tweaks
Enabled some of the "features" (Enable hardware video acceleration, Disable Android logger, JIT for dalvik, disable usage-sending)
tweaked the Multitasking settings (Medium, Medium, 128, yes, yes)
Replaced GPS file
Enabled all Speed & Stability Settings
Now my device wont boot. Not sure if it matters, but I had flashed the new gapps in the same CWM session. If I figure out the offending tweak, I'll let you know. My boot posts with the splash screen and the loading bar, and never reaches my boot animation and hangs on a black screen with softkeys & keyboard lit (when slid out).
I'm running CM10 Nightly 1010 with NexusModemAIO patch & didhy's nitest kernel.
Installed and went through fine. But didn't install the Sony Walkman app or stay awake. Have tried installing the Walkman app through root explorer didn't work that way either. Is it just something to do with cm10? Running cm10 nightly 1014

Did you do a clean install including dalvic cache and factory reset? Also there are aosp custom android versions you can click and stock versions you can select. Did you download the HDPI zip in the op, one more thing I did a full wipe and installed cm10 along with gapps and nitestkernel with ns4g roam fix, and didn't reboot right when it was done but went to the main menu in cwm then rebooted. Maybe try that

Just did a few tweaks, WiFi , touchscreen, battery. The battery hasn't changed any was at 100% before and after I rebooted was at 35% and drained ridiculously. But WiFi seems better can go outside and stay connected a little better, and I guess I'm on stock 2012101014 haven't flashed any custom kernels or modems just flashed cm10 nightly and 7/26 black gapps. New on this phone lol, and had gotten Walkman to install from here but would constantly close no errors though. Also before flashing Aroma I wiped cache/ dalvik cache. Hope this helped
Edit: after clean install factory reset, caches wiped flashed ROM and gapps , tried same tweaks and apps the semc albums app was installed but no Walkman , if you could post flashable zip would appreciate , just like it better than Apollo music thanks

I tried touchwiz gb but not cm7 yet and I can confirm the wifi tweak doesn't work and another big big thing is wipe dalvic cache and all the cache. It may freeze at around 14% complete just do a battery pull and go again. I am currently running the latest Kang Jellybean and literally did all the tweaks and it has been running flawless and battery life is great along with data speeds so maybe try that guys. I didn't write these mods just found them in xda so we can all learn together. Thanks epic dudes I love this phone! Lol

My rom has random reboots after I used this, it sucks in my opinion, only think that might have improved is the wifi/data tweaks. Battery life is the same, i didn't even mess with ram or kernel, everything was running fine, I was dumb to install it in the first place, but I hope others have improved performance with it.

did you try to reset the phone to stock Rom with SEUS?

So I got it to work and what I should have done was find out how to use the new kernel before installing it but fyi for the X10 when the doomkernel logo appears wait for a blue light to turn on as a notification light that is when you go crazy on that back button. But yeah its working and I tell you DonutHD is so much faster than Cyanogen mod (partly from the 1.1ghz vs 1.3ghz overclocked speed, but also the lightness of it)
