yes, there's a link to flashable radios in the root guide. I just didn't find a difference in teh radio, in fact, I felt that it wasn't as good in some place.
As for p3's rom.. some of the stuff just doesn't work... it's bad memories back from the DX days .. His rom was my first soft brick. It was a bad rom but at least I learned how to restore.
I ended up ditching p3's rom last night. Battery life was nice and I did not have any probs with the radio, however the thing that killed it for me was lag going into the app drawer. I know animations are quirky still on ICS but it was just annoying. This happened with both stock and nova launchers. I assume that since flashing a rom does not change the radio, I am still on p3's correct? If I run into problems, is there a recommended radio that I should flash back to at some point?
So last night I flashed the Redemption ROM 1.0.4 and the Leankernel 1.6.6. All I can say is wow, what a difference. Battery life today (light use Id say). Just a few emails and a handful of texts in over three hours and I am at 89%. Not bad so far. This is with the extended battery (which came yesterday and I installed last night). Next thing I need to do is re-familiarize myself with setcpu (or ask around here) on how to tweak things for even better battery life.
Fab's rom is working flawlessly for me, it's very fast, has a lot of options and has been giving me great battery life. I haven't tried the flashlight toggle since I use an app from the Market with a widget on my home screen for the flash light.
I will most likely try Fab's rom at some point, as I loved Apex on the DX. Hey what flashlight app do you use? I normally use TeslaLED which works on the GN, but seems to work really slow...... for some strange reason.
Agreed. It's very good. I messaged him when I was beta testing that the flashlight toggle didn't work. He said he knew that. I asked when: it would be working. He never answered. Oh well.
I had some similar stuff with him in the past as well.
I'm running Gummy and I so far have found it the perfect mix of REALLY nifty features and not dicking around too much stuff.
The home screen rotate works perfect, I love that you can pick 4 different notification battery icons without flashing anything or even rebooting.
It provides performance tweaks and stuff also.
Mostly, you have to decide what your interested in.
do you just want streamlined stock? (sounds like redemption fits this)
do you want bleeding edge tweaks? (Kang or AKOP )
do you want tweaks but on a more modesty scale? (I think this is Gummy)
do you want customized everything? (this would be P3's tranquility rom)
These are my guesses, YMMV...
Thanks for hitting me back. I was going to flash gummynex last night (I loved gummyjar on the dx) but heard about battery life probs, so am holding off for now.
Funny that path you mentioned, but that is what I was thinking in my head. I chose redemption (for now). But feel that I may need to install nova launcher since I do not like the google search bar taking up space on my home screens.
Is nova on the market yet, or just flash in cwr only?
Also, what cwr are you guys using? Im still using rom manager just cos its easy.
Thanks a ton!
