Yes I have tested Bastita 3.2 only a day but took it off as I do not like his theme ; other than that it is very stable and good. I'd say is better than Litening 4.2, at least in battery usage. Litening 4.2 is a big drain versus Litening 2.1
I have not tested AngeloM 2.7 yet but I am using his latest kernel test v13 with my current XXKG3. AngeloM firmwares are also very good and again I do not keep it long as I find his themes too flashy and I just hate his boot animation ; don't know whether he has change it in 2.7. Maybe will try it later

hi uncle benny now do you load the new boot animation that batista created?

Uncle benny, so far I used litening 4.2, very good for battery life.not sure why u say it drain battery badly.maybe u are heavy user?

I said compared to v 2.1. Yes i am heavy user - my 3G is always on 24 hours - refresh/update data my email, RSS, newsfeeds, tweeters, browsing , MSN-Skype, GPS etc every 15 to 30 minutes
So for me using up 3 GB data is easy every month. You will also be shock at my data usage - just a day in Spore my data roaming charges for just one day hit around RM 1500 ; highest recorded was in May - RM 2250 just one day roaming data charges. But as I subscibed to Celocm postpiad unlimited package - i need not pay for these roaming - it is auto deducted monthly

I just use his default boot animation which comes with the firmware. What do you mean " how to load" ?

Did you flash the Angelom 12's kernel through CWM using the zip file? I did it that way and it says "zImage not found"
*
You have to flash it through recovery mode ( use the hard buttons). You cannot do it using the CWM app - this app is actually buggy - it doesn't work for all roms

Cannot remember the name - subscribed it since 6 years ago - I pay RM 98 for data unlimited and RM50 fix ( for calls/SMS) . Charges for roaming apply for calls/sms/mms and charges apply for calls/SMS exceeding RM 50. Charges for data roaming excluded but will be shown in bill

Post the link where you download this Rafael stuff ; if is a zip file - just flash through recovery ? ( extracted showing folders data, system, meta-inf)

Page 1 post #5 is your answer

Analogy using a CAR : Root is the KEY to enter your car and open up the bonnet to tinker with the engine. KERNEL is the ignition starter that interacts between your key and the car engine. Firmware is your whole car engine system

I flashed to Angelom13 kernel. Quadrant scores were much lower compared to Ninpo's kernel. On the first run 2900, thereafter increased to a max of 3200. With ninpo's can get till 3800.

What I notice during the Quadrant test was the framerates dropped a lot.

AngeloM kernel is not performance kernel unlike Ninpo. You use AngeloM kernel to have better battery savings. You are comparing a BMW ( ninpo) with an Accord ( AngeloM)

You have failed installation of USB phone drivers. If you have installed KIES - launch KIES - at top of menu - select Tools/Install Driver again
