Dude.. that looks super awesome. Definitely gonna be flashing to this firmware over the weekend. Any other improvements over the stock JF4? I've read many postings claiming performance gains, power efficiency, etc.. but it all seems rather anecdotal to me.

Specifically, from your experience:
1. Are the annoying blank screens gone? You know sometimes it just lags horribly especially when switching between apps, or do you still apply the lagfix after a fw flash?
2. Battery improvements.. any?
3. GPS.. faster lock times? JF4 takes ages to lock and frequently loses connection (even after the recommended fix over at xda)
4. Anything else?

Sorry for the questions, I'm just rather excited about this phone and it's potential. smile.gif

I'm actually about to flash up to the Samset 1.5 custom ROM from JM1 (which I've rooted, btw, to make screenshots and other activities possible). Why, you ask? Well, my previous experience with JG5 and Samset 1.2c (customised over JG5) showed that the custom ROM was quicker overall.

OK, on to your questions tongue.gif

1. Not gone, but I get them less often than when I was on the stock firmware JF4. The lag was nearly gone when I executed lagfix script after upgrading to SamSet custom ROM.
2. Slight improvement (the phone lasts until around 11pm instead of dying around 8pm).
3. Haven't used GPS yet so I can't say if anything's been improved in this area.
4. Newer firmwares are generally less buggy, less laggy, less power hungry..

Whoa! Really!? Lucky. Even tho I am on 3GB, I set my watchdog to 2.5GB. Just in case some glitch here and there.
1cents per kb is killer wei...

Hey, thanks.. that was really helpful. Let us know your experience with the new custom ROM on JM1. I'll try and find the time to do that over the weekend.. will report back with my findings.

Yep, you need to be rooted first. I use an app called drocap2 to capture screenshots off the phone (to JPG or PNG files).
