Some screen shot if you update to cris555 ICS theme.

Notice that the pull down menu has transparent effect biggrin.gif Most icon has been changed to ICS theme as well.

The screen off effect has CRT animation, something like this:

this is my 3rd time re-flashing cow's OC rom..apparently, titanium backup screwed the whole system when restoring my apps..damn..

it's fast alright, but i notice the zeam launcher uses around 3% of battery usage though...i just hope it doesn't affect battery drain...huhu

THANKS! nice to get some feedback.

Bad idea since Zeam is locked in memory I had set Regina Launcher to be default it went to blank screen...removed it and let Zeam take in charge smile.gif

Had to remove battery n reboot....


Added on January 20, 2012, 4:41 amGuys best to reduce to 1.5GHz on demand I am getting a blank screen n still phone.

Had to remove battery n reboot...before on 1.8 GHz interactive.....

My wild guess must be set on On Demand....Anyone can confirm ?
*
somehow, in my testing, OnDemand seem more stable than Interactive in OC mode sad.gif

thanks for testing, keep those feedback coming

and....
im now in 2.3.6, b4 this, while in 2.3.5, i rooted. will got problem if i use your rom in 2.3.6?

after you install CWM, use its backup feature to backup your entire phone. it is important. if anything wrong, you can use CWM to restore your phone completely as it was before....

no problem if u use 2.3.6

Hello guys... I flashed RZRecovery to my bootloader and when I do a nandroid backup, it show some message like this:
backup path on /sdcard/nandroid/xxxx-20110120-xxxx and needs (~646mb)
0mb available
.....Bla Bla.....
Backup failed!
0mb used.

But then I check back the folder /sdcard/nandroid/xxxx-20110120-xxxx it contain 4 files sum of 650mb. Does that mean my backup ran successfully? (boot.img, cache.tar, data.tar, system.tar)

Thanks
*
it is dangerous to let your internal sd card 0 mb.

in this case, i recommend you to change to use ClockWorkMode. it can do the backup into your external sd card instead. after backup, u can delete the /sdcard/nandroid

Sorry! I have not use ROM Manager before. But it should be the same. I just use CWM or RZ Recovery to install the update.zip.

The instruction still not clear...

I downloaded the cwm file from the link, then
recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-ancora.zip -> for flashing in adb shell
Don't flash the zip file, but extract and flash the img file. --->>>????????

what does it meant????

can i just copy the .img file that i downloaded to my sd card, the boot it pressing the recovery 3 buttons n enable the recovery???
*
unzip the recovery-clockwork...zip. you till get an .IMG file. copy this img file into your sdcard.

then, use adb and excute the dd command...

based on feedback i get so far, most FC only start appear after user recover their app using Titanium or something...

this could be due to permission problem...

anyone encouter FC even if not restoring any app?

i encountered multiple FC after i tried to restore mmssms.db ... biggrin.gif it's permission problem. got nothing to do with ROM...

i believed Titanium also backup the mmssms.db, so, i think need to use "fix permission" in Titanium or something.

i m not using Titanium btw...

i m not familiar with any backup app!!! i mostly do the backup myself.

i copy the APK out, which is in /data/app

then i backup it's data, which is in /data/data

for sms, i copy the /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases

after install, i just copy them back

i m more like the hand-ons guy biggrin.gif

nice! i think most of the problem is due to recovery of app.

there is another way to get the OC kernel but keep everything else:
