Before I continue with this thread I must thank HroarK13, Dm47021, and a few others for there hard work and effort that they put in to the code I am feverishly hacking through and reconstructing.

Mind you, none of these were 100% built by me. Only parts!

Here is the original thread where everyone put work into this rom.
Click me for the original thread!

Code:
#include 
/* 
* Your warranty is now void. * 
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, 
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please  
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM  
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if  
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.  
*/
I will just list the builds I make in this thread. I will have a change log in the second post.

Please comment, ask, suggest, submit, and talk about the rom. I do check this forum every day, even if I can't work on it every day.

Much mad respect for those before me.

Topmost link is the most current test build.
V9 is the most stable build.

 
Reserved for change-log.

@Angablade,
Thanx for the alnighter. It felt really good to feed that old flashing addiction again.
I had to crash big time, red eyes and all lol.
Loaded every cut you released .
Your getting real close to putting this to bed. I've no black screen of death , no vibration hangs, and its gotten smoother
Each time. The goggle camera worked great except my storage issue. But all is kool.
Thanks a whole lot. Oh after all that work out I had to charge it and I got 12 hours on your last version left it sitting and its still showing 100% charge. Maybe more governor might get it better. Just a thought.
Thanx again

Shuuut bro... You are in V4 already... Where have I been?
I'm reporting sh"*t from V2... Hey let me get to it.

AAhaa See what happens when you sleep.


Could somebody try this camera out and tell me if it works for you.
it worked well for me on Angablades V4 and I'm curious.
I loaded it first as an apk and it worked for me.
Didn't even removed the google one.

So then I yanked the google one and Loaded This one in system/app
and set the permissions rw--r--r--. And boom both cameras worked.

Remember to cold boot it when you load it before trying to use it.
I found that out by mistake.

Our signal issues been weak... The only way is been able to modify the radio CU's its running with T.Mo GPRS(TD-SCDMA) Korean. Sh"*t!!! No offense.... We can speedvup data connection by changing in build.prop.
*ro.ril.hsxpa=1... to 3
*ro.ril.gprsclass=10... to 12 or 32

Adding
* ro.ril.hsdpa.category=37
*ro.ril.hsupa.category=10
(( Why this values...B.cus our radio supports 64-QAM modulation.to read more= http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-Speed_Downlink_Packet_Access ))
