Hi everyone,
I am sorry to say that I will be retiring this ROM. I will be receiving my HTC One S next week, and most of my development efforts will be focused over in those forums. I won't abandon the 4.0 completely, but this will be my last ROM for it, with no more future updates. I also feel that this ROM is pretty complete and definitely usable for a stable daily driver.
I want to thank the community who supported my development, and my ROMs have been a good learning experience for me. But too bad the galaxy players were never very popular with developers...
Anyways, hope you enjoyed my work here. Links will always be available.

As you probably all know, I have ditched Klassic and letting hanthesolo continue it. I was going to make a SGS2-styled ROM, but instead I chose a total ICS-styled ROM instead due to the popularity of Android 4.0. I will be maintaining this ROM in two builds--one based on G1UEKI8 (USA) and another based on XXKPQ (INTL). Using an INTL ROM on a US player, and a US ROM on an INTL player caused too many issues (bluetooth, home button, toggles, etc), so I have decided to do it this way for better integration and the best possible experience. As of now it is not very different from Klassic (or Stratus), but as I make new releases it will have more and more features. Also it will be flashable with CWM. Enjoy
Features:
v1 (6/18/12)
- complete ICS theme (even better themed than Klassic, just look at the screenshots)
- swapped internal USB storage and external SD card (see 3rd post on how to revert)
- Holo Launcher installed
- ICS transitions + Roboto Fonts
- ICS clock widget
- deodexed
- zipaligned
- smooth scrolling mod (a.k.a. disabled scrolling cache in framework)
- smooth spinners mod
- CRT screen off animation
- 14 statusbar toggles
- "Device ID" hack ~now apps like XDA, Whatsapp, Tap Tap Revenge, and any app that needs a unique device id will run and not force close~ (XXKPQ uses Meticulus' hack, G1UEKI8 uses a slightly different method, but still same result)
- advanced powermenu with reboot, recovery, and download
- Supercharged with V6 Supercharger
- my own init.d scripts (you can look at the notes in the "55tweaks" file to see what I put in there)
- improved battery life
- I/O performance enhancements
- better performance
- TerraSilent as the default CPU governor
- plus more
- fixed performance and freezing issues from Klassic R5 (note: this ROM is completely made from scratch from stock, not based on Klassic or another ROM)
- fixed bluetooth issues from Klassic R5
- loads of build.prop tweaks
- debloated (I will attach the apps that I removed if you still want them)
- latest SU Binary 3.0.3.2
- BusyBox 1.20.1
- RFS filesystem ---> /system doesn't need to be on EXT4 because you are not constantly writing data on it

INTL users please try the US version and post here if there are issues
Sorry, I will have to drop support for INTL players because it is too difficult to keep flashing, modding, and testing both builds of the ROM. I understand that 2.3.5 caused a reboot issue on INTL players when the headphones are plugged in. If somebody could please post a logcat, and I will try and see what I can do to fix the issue. Thanks.
Special thanks to:
Dark_Balor for improving the kernel for our device
zeppelinrox for his V6 SuperCharger
Meticulus for his Device ID hack for 2.3.6
Vertumus for some parts of his ICS Domination Theme
dsixda for his kitchen
And many others I probably forgot to mention

Extras and add-ons
Extras and Add-ons​
Here I will attach some miscellaneous add-ons for my ROM.
How to manually wipe and format data into EXT4
1. Boot into CWM recovery. Make sure you are using the latest TerraSilent kernel.
2. Type 'adb shell' in command prompt or Terminal.
3. Type the following code:
Code:
umount /data
umount /dbdata
umount /cache
Then:
Code:
mke2fs -f ext4 -b 4096 -O ^huge_file,^dir_nlink,^ext_attr,^resize_inode,^extra_isize -m 0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
mke2fs -f ext4 -b 4096 -O ^huge_file,^dir_nlink,^ext_attr,^resize_inode,^extra_isize -m 0 /dev/block/stl10
mke2fs -f ext4 -b 4096 -O ^huge_file,^dir_nlink,^ext_attr,^resize_inode,^extra_isize -m 0 /dev/block/stl11
4. Reboot. Or you can follow below on how to disable EXT4 journaling (don't reboot), which GREATLY improves i/o performance. Note that every time you boot into recovery, /data get wiped into RFS again due to a CWM bug. I suggest that you do not boot into recovery again after rebooting unless you really need to.
To disable EXT4 journaling
1. Make sure you have flashed my ROM, as it includes some tools for this procedure.
2. Unmount the partitions if they aren't already:
Code:
umount /data
umount /cache
umount /dbdata
4. Follow:
Code:
tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/block/stl10
tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/block/stl11
5. You're done! Now you can reboot, and see the massive jump in Quadrant, especially if you're using ROM v2.3 and up.
How to change the background wallpaper theme
For v2.3, I've enabled the use of a custom wallpaper theme, which will show up in many apps. If you don't like the picture I used, you can replace it yourself with these very simple instructions.
1. Copy the /system/framework/framework-res.apk from your player.
2. Using an archiver, like winzip or 7zip, open the apk.
3. Find any 480x800 png image that you like, and name it screen_background_dark_transparent.png
4. Drag it into the res/drawable-hdpi/ folder of the apk. It will replace the original one in there.
5. Copy framework-res.apk back, and make sure to set permissions rw-r--r--. Reboot.
Extras
- Stock vold.fstab (for stock usb storage and sd card mounts): http://d-h.st/FKL
This is how to install
Code:
cd [B]*directory of the file*[/B]
adb remount
adb push vold.fstab /system/etc
Or simply just copy/paste with root explorer and reboot.

It looks nice. I have 1 suggestion. It is possible to put the SGSII lockscreen into it? It would be perfect! (for me though I don't know for the others)

I could try, and maybe upload a framework-res specifically for people who want an SGS2 lockscreen.

I am trying to get INTL support for this ROM, but unfortunately I noticed that with XXKPQ if I use dsixda's kitchen I get this error when trying to use busybox:
Any busybox applet will result in the same...
It doesn't happen on 2.3.5 G1UEKI8 though.. I have tried unrooting and rerooting, using the install busybox option with kitchen, reinstalling busybox, but nothing seems to work.
So..for now I will only be supporting US devices until someone can either help me get rid of this error or at least help me find another INTL ROM that I can base my work off of.

---

Nice! It seems we are branching off, you to theming and features, I to raw performance . Just from one dev to another, did you fix bluetooth by unullifying? Also, how did you get framework-res to successfuly recompile without FC's? I tried doing it, and it basically blew up my Gplayer. Maybe using a apk decompiler is not the way to go...Argh, I hate windows, I never have these issues in Ubuntu...
Finally, where did you find his deviceid hack? when I got to his thread he had nuked all of his work...sad that someone would try and rip off his hundreds of hours of work.

I use apkmanager to modify my apks if I'm on windows, but if I just happen to be using Linux and I'm too lazy to reboot I use apktool (which requires more work though). For the device id hack, it was a method in framework.jar. Copying and pasting that method from Meticulus's worked for 2.3.6, but would cause a bootloop on 2.3.5 US. So I looked at the logcat and used a modified version of this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=955847 for my deviceid hack.
I hate editing smali though...it's so difficult to understand.

Thanks! I used apk manager, but it still did not work without fc....maybe i will try a different tool (for some reason it will not recognize adb or aapt in ubuntu even though I can run the commands from the terminal.
It seems we have competing roms now...may the best dev win.

Ummm...don't forget that your work is still based off of my work
Editing smali and the framework for new features (powermenu, toggles, etc) is the real ROM work...hehe
Besides, I'm not here to compete; I just want to share my work.

---

Point taken, I just wanted some friendly competition, it helps to make work go faster.
But, I would like to see you spend 3 hours fixing init.d scripts, and tweaking sysctl for best ram usage.
My point is, we are both skilled in completely different areas. I am better at some things, and You blow past me in others. It just comes down to the users preference.

Ugh..I just found out that it is the same with G1UEKI8 as well.
I flashed my factoryfs.rfs version and busybox worked, so I will upload the factoryfs in an Odin package tomorrow. From now on the roms will have to be flashed through Odin until I can find a fix.

I have that same issue on my device (different rom). Busybox works fine; the issue is that somehow the symlinks got corrupted (hence the not found and weird characters). I fixed it (post-install) by deleting the broken files and recreating the symlinks in /system/xbin. You might want to check your updater-script or the 'install-busybox.sh' file the kitchen creates.

Flash Tool for this ROM
Which flashing utility/method do you recommend for this ROM?
Thanks!

Thank you. So all I have to do is just recreate the symlinks in /system/xbin? I didn't think it would be that easy

If we did all that ext4 foo foo should we go back to stock before flashing?

No need to. It will still work fine with ext4 partitions.

What you need to do is make a list of all of the files in /system/xbin that are there after flashing but aren't in your working folder's system/xbin. Those are the (broken) symlinks created by the installbusybox.sh script at the root of your zip. You need to put a symlink command in your updater-script for each of those (referring to the lines already there), and then you can delete the installbusybox.sh script and the updater-script lines referring to it.

Everytime I try to turn on Wifi it says error and bluetooth still doesnt work... besides that everything seems to be working fine is there a reason why my wifi wont start?
