Root [ROM] Froyo FRF91 SS v4.4 [7/9/2010] From SOURCE - All 4.3 Issues Fixed - Maps/Market, ALL!

Im having some trouble changing the kernel on this rom. Its been running smooth as can be and its excellent with your LV 1 GHZ kernel, however whenever I try to change the kernel through rom manager I experience problems. It downloads the kernel perfectly fine, reboots, the motorola M comes up, and then it reboots again and loads up like normal, but without my new kernel. Im wondering if Im going to run into the same issues when I want to run a different rom, anybody know what could be causing this?

Excellent job Chevy, this has been my only issue so far

What kernel are you trying to switch to? Have you tried installing it manually through recovery?

Are you sure it's going into recovery to flash the kernel. It sounds to me that you have a recovery issue. I've had this happen to me a couple of times. If you are having recovery issues go into Rom manager and flash spr and then flash back to Clockwork.

This is my average Quadrant score with this ROM on JDLFG 1050Mhz kernel. I did clock in 1500s a few times, but not consistently....

Tried this ROM and I couldn't keep it. Sorry guys! Boot times were just soooo slow compared to what I got used to with the latest Kangerade. I mean, my phone would come all the way up and I would see loading widgets.

Did you do a full wipe (as recommended by Chevy) before installing? Also, know that even though it has a 1 GHz kernel included, it's default clock is 600 MHz at boot until you change it in SetCPU. After I changed it, boot speed was as fast as any other ROM I've used.

This was too easy to set up after a full wipe with his bkapps/rstapps scrips. Much easier/faster than using Titanium Backup. I updated to fix the in-call proximity sensor issue and in hopes of helping battery life from NexBeast FRF57 (wasn't too bad but not nearly as good as I got with 2.1 - usage/apps didn't change).

I'm not too keen on the theme though. It's better than stock, but the blue is harder to see up top. Anyone got a link to some themes I can just install via CW recovery?

Naw, I didn't do a full wipe... and it did occur to me that that may have been the cause for the slowdown. If you had over to droidforums, you can find a stock-themed 4.4.

I didn't do a full wipe either. I didn't go thru the slowdown because I had flashed the 1 Ghz ULV by Chevy right after I installed the ROM. Also I managed to move a few things around within the framework, by doing that I'm able to use Woodyman's theme, with the honeycomb black. I'm loving this theme. I also took some from Kangerade's Droid X theme, basically the icons.

Went ahead and did a full wipe and installed it along with his LV 1.25 kernel. I ended up installing P3's LV 1.25 because I get better performance out of it. This, in fact, outdid my Quadrant scores with Kangerade, but booting was still kinda too slow for me. And my wifi would act all wonky if I had it enabled and did a reboot; I would have to disable/reenable to get my connection back. Gonna back up this rom, and restore my Kangerade for the time being.
