INSTALLATION GUIDE
1) START HERE IF YOU JUST BOUGHT THE PHONE:
- Download and install usb drivers for your phone: http://global-download.acer.com/GDFiles/Ap...&SC=EMEA_27
- Flash a recent bin (I suggest the 39 'cause it has an updated baseband); you can download it from here: http://tinyurl.com/34tq4yp; somone else suggests the 09... you can download it from here: http://global-download.acer.com/GDFiles/OS...amp;SC=EMEA_17)
- Afer following the instructions you'll have an up to date bin.
2) START HERE IF YOU'VE GOT AN UPDATED ROM BUT WITHOUT MALEZ RECOVERY
- It's time to install the malez recovery
- If you didn't, install your USB drivers now...: http://global-download.acer.com/GDFiles/Ap...&SC=EMEA_27
- Download the malez recovery 0.5.4: http://www.multiupload.com/402AVV1SI9
- unzip the archive and click install-recevery-windows.bat while your phone is ON
- Your phone will reboot several times during this process
3) START HERE IF YOU'VE GOT AN UPDATED ROM AND THE MALEZ RECOVERY
- Almost done...
- Download ROM LS 2.1 (you'll find the links below)
- Connect your phone to the computer, activate the date-exchange by usb (once you've plugged in your phone a notification will appear, tap it)
- Copy the downloaded file in the main directory of your SD Card (Without extracting it) [Please Note: You've to copy this file in the MAIN DIRECTORY not in a sub-folder]
- Reboot your phone in recovery mode (If you did pass trought 'point 2', you'll find, in the malez recovery's pack, the file "reboot to recovery.bat" doubleclick it with your phone plugged in by usb, if you didn't, well, its better to download it from the point 2 or from this link if you're to lazy to scroll the page up: http://www.multiupload.com/402AVV1SI9 .
- Once you're on recovery's main screen you'll have to move through its menu by Volume UP/Volume Down buttons
- Go to "Flash/Test menu" and press the MENU button (the last touch button of your acer liquid, the one with three stripes)
- Press Menu once more
- Go to SDCARD:LS2.1 and press MENU
- press HOME (bottom left) and wait for the process to end
- Once this installation ends press BACK (the "<" button) to go back to the main menu, then press MENU to reboot your phone.
- If you want to delete added aps (the ones in /data) and to have a clean ROM it's the moment to do a "Wipe Data Factory", obviously the widgets of the removed apps won't work and you'll have to delete them from your home. I suggest to keep them cause they're very useful.
4) START HERE IF YOU ALREADY INSTALLED THE ROM LS
- Congratulations!
- The first boot will last a bit more than the usual, don't worry.
- Once you're phone is on, select your language and follow the setting wizard
- Once the wizard finised go to the apps menu and open LSsettings
- Here you can set the touchscreen sensitivity and many other things
- If you'd like to install the theme pack or an OC kernel (if you don't know what an oc kernel is don't install it, you don't need to); you'll find links below; every pack has got a README file explaining how to install it
- Tip: select HTC_IME keyboard by holding a textbox
- Once you've set the ROM reboot your phone.
- Now The ROM LS is installed and ready to use! Have Fun!
NOTES
- Once you've turned on your phone, tap the taskmanager widget to end every app you dont need
- Don't WIPE your phone after the installation or you'll lose every added app. If you accidently wipe it, simply re-flash this ROM.
- App + Data on SD may causes really problems to the system. Please, choose app on SD only
IF YOU NEED MORE INFORMATION, SIMPLY ASK HERE! WE'LL BE HAPPY TO HELP YOU!
PLEASE, We use tools to count our downloads, Don't upload this release on other mirrors, THANKS.
NO WAREZ, NO MALWARE, NO CRIME....JUST A SUPER ROM!

Don't be sorry for your English, at least you try and we understand you just fine
I am using this ROM and have been since the release and it's as stable as they get. I recommend it my friend!
It does have Camera app.. was that your question?

hi Lain & Suxem this rom is really fast and stable,
there is a way to enable compcache in this rom at boot ?? or tiny swap??
thanks and really appreciate your hard work!!!
for me any overclock kernel broke compcache!!!!!!!!!!!
can someone help me?

I like this ROM...!!!!
thx suxem..

Sorry, double post..
my internet is slow..

the best work i've seen for an android phone !
themes apps overclocking.... everything sounds perfect
the only problem i am having is with launcher pro ! i have the app for the plus version and i cant install it with astro or any other file manager !
any solution for this

you use the unlock launcher pro plus from the preferences
if your trying to use an older version that you downloaded then not much i can do to help with that

i tried and its asking for a paypal account !!!!

yes
you understand that launcher pro plus is something you have paid for??
meaning that if you didnt pay for it you wont be able to unlock it?
that is not a bug and if your trying to get the pro version for free - that is why the app maker changed the way the pro version works and is no longer a seperate apk
so you cant steal pro anymore
pay for it or stop whining - its not a bug

i already paid for the app and i have a backup of the paid apk... thats why i want to use it and not pay for it again ... hope u can understand that
thanks for your work again..... but u have to work on your people skills

- App + Data on SD may causes really problems to the system. Please, choose app on SD only
how cn I use app on sd only?pls tellthanks

thanks man. i contacted the developer and he fix my account issue
still i think this is the best and most complete work for an android phone
yaseramin: open the LS program in the menu. choose APP2SD

Does the LS2.1 support Chinese language???
Hiya... I'm just wondering if this rom will support chinese language overall n is my current rom (Acer_LiquidE_1.100.09_AAP_GEN2) compatible to this? Beside, will it be possible to return to the stock rom afterward?
Much appreciate for your effort on this LS2.1 and looking forward for your advise, thx~

After stock conversion:
New MIUI music player:
Changelog:
v2.3 - 2/16/2011
If you just installed 2.1, let it boot once (initial boot) and then reboot in recovery and install the update, or your phone will end up in a vibration loop
This can be installed over 2.2.
Kernel Speedmod K13B
Dialer now has message button instead of voice mail (more useful)
Moded MMS apk included. Supports picture sending with res up to 1280x800, MMS size max 600KB and SMS to MMS conversion is done at 5 SMSs (default value is 4)
Updated system apps; Updated /data apps
Changed Browser icon - hope you like Chrome
Reverted gps drivers to JPY - please report on performance.
Changed AOSP lockscreen font to Sans (check pictures)
Added latest version of MIUI player
Updated the Continuum_content folder
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif] stock_look_Continuum_5locks_circlebat.zip - removes visual and several sound customizations but it preserves the circle battery and the 5 lockscreens mod [/FONT]
Click here for the full change log and feature list
Few important notes:
For update packs from older versions, check the second post
MODEM RECOMMENDATION: Please flash JPY modem, enable WCDMA 850 (by typing *#2263# - COMBI BANDS - WCDMA 850 (FDD V)
[*]. If the star is not there, tap on that line)and see how is battery life. For me is great. If you have battery drain, you might want to do this. If your connection drops, go to settings - wifi settings - mobile networks and set the type of network to the one has most coverage on your area, GSM or WCDMA
You will have in Continuum_content folder, on your sdcard, [FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]the following patches:[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif] i897_prop.zip - this will change your phone's name from GT-i9000 to i897. However you will lose access to Samsung Apps. The patch deletes the apk from the system as well and it installs a working version of Swype + QuickOffice (as ThinkOffice will not work anymore with the i897 build.prop) [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif] TwLauncher4iconsDock.zip - well, no explanation needed for this[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif] stock_look_Continuum_4locks_circlebat.zip - removes visual and several sound customizations but it preserves the circle battery and the 4 lockscreens mod [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]stock_look_Continuum.zip - this will revert your phone's look to Samsung default framework (no extended power menu, no lockscreens chooser)[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif] delete_bloat.zip - this will delete applications considered as "bloat". Below is the update-script content; you can see which apps are being removed:[/FONT]
Code:
delete DATA:app/adaptive.cogid-1.apk

Installation instructions
Disclaimer: If this shall brick your device, make you break up with your girlfriend, make the cat fly, the TV explode and wipe the mankind from the surface of the Earth, I am not responsible!
The ROM was tested on my Captivate. I installed several times to make sure it behaves.
To exclude one cause of battery drain issues always flash this ROM with FULL BATTERY!
This will wipe your /system, /data, /dbdata, /cache.
Internal/External SDcard will remain untouched.
STEP 0: BACKUP! BACKUP! BACKUP! Use nandroid and Titanium Backup
As well please create a backup of your /efs partition as described here
1. Pull out your SIM and external sdcard!
2. Return to stock (those without 3 button combo, use this) <- If you are coming from another i9000 ROM and if you dont have lagfix enabled, this step is not required.
3. Download the ROM
4. Flash from CWM Recovery.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------​
Old ROM links:
Basic ROM comes with K12H speedmod kernel and I9000UGJL2 modem.
This is JPY deodexed and rooted. Nothing else.
Basic ROM wipe
Basic ROM non wipe
Other old downloads
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------​ Issue list, fixes and tips:
This section is continuously updated​
First, if you install a different kernel, don't blame the ROM if you have issues.
If you changed system apps (apks) or framework other than what is posted in this thread, don't blame the ROM or the addon pack for making your phone an useless piece of plastic.
If you changed system binaries (drivers, applications -non apks-), again, don't blame the ROM for temporary killing your device.
You may put up a post with your problem and with the changes you made to the OS by yourself. I will do my best to get you out of the situation but don't first rate the ROM as worse and then leave. Everything can be fixed so give me a chance!
Thanks a lot for understanding.
I cannot uninstall system apps with TitaniumBackup. Why? Because TiBu does not mount the /system as RW. Will discuss this with Joel. Workaround: go to SGS Toolbox and tap on mount /system as rw (read/write) then uninstall the applications you want from TiBu. Restart the phone and you're done.
I cannot take MMS video and send MMS with video attached bigger than 300KB what can I do? Take a look here
Mobile data sometimes not working. Fix: make sure you have an APN for your network by going to Settings - Wireless and network - Mobile networks - Access Point Names
My bluetooth doesn't work: Yes it does!
I'm using it myself.
OMG, there are no animations!!! Yes there are! you have to activate them in Settings - Display – Animations
I have high battery drain on this thing. Take a look here
I would like to try new modems and if possible know some stuff about them. Take a look here
I cannot send MMS. Make sure you have your phone configured with the correct Access Point Name and the correct outgoing server number.
Stock email doesn't work/doesn't support exchange. There are several reports that the email app works fine and this ROM was the only one they could run Exchange on so make sure your provider doesn't play with the towers configuration.
The phone is telling me that I was 50% of the time without signal. Why? This could be related to the modem. I am now testing JK4. If you have this bug download and flash UGJK4 modem . As well, make sure that you have WCDMA 850MHz selected by typing *#2263# - COMBI BANDS - WCDMA 850 (FDD V) [*]. If the star is not there, tap on that line and that should be all.
Alternative: There were reports that with JPY modem, this bug disappeared after enabling 850 band and there were no reception problems plus greatly improved battery life
I dont seem to be able to get a GPS lock on this ROM. What can I do? Check this post
What is Control Plane?? Take a look here
How to:
​
Calibrate battery: (thanks to TechnicR)
Turn phone off and charge till full
Start recovery and wipe battery stats
Reboot and start the phone
Use it heavily until it turns of by itself
Connect charger and turn on the phone and wait until fully charged
GPS: Here is a my tracks recording. Is short but it shows that the GPS works almost without a fault
Feel:
The ROM feels really smooth on RFS, I am surprised how much improvement Samsung made with their file system in 2.2.1.
Thanks and donations go to R64, ericshieh, bedwa, DocRambone, Fr44g0r, creator2456, s0niqu3, Fabolous, camalot, khiyatesh, glitterballs, neldar, Guardian_Bob, MikeyMike01, designgears and others. If you notice someone not mentioned, dont hesitate to let me know.

-xcaliburinhand's 2.2.2

This looks awesome. DLing now will post back with findings.

Just so ya know home button haptic feedback is not kernel related its fixed in android.policy.jar. I had it fixed with jpo but haven't gotten it fixed yet for jpu as it seems to be a little different. But if you put in an android.policy.jar from a captivate firmware, you will have haptic on the home button but a bunch of text string errors.
Just letting more people know since I don't have as much time to mess around and fix as I used to. The more people looking at it, the quicker this issue will be fixed for good.

[TOOL] [01/23/11] Android Customization Suite 1.0 - devs read me!

Android Customization Suite 1.0
This is a program to complement your ROM. It is able to produce a CWM flashable zip with apps your ROM might be missing (T-Mob ones, launchers, utilities, etc). It also has other tools available for you. It can produce an empty flashable zip for you (read more about it here). And now, it has "repositories." Developers can upkeep their own repos with whatever files they wish. Roms, themes, mods, etc.
need Captivate Devs to talk to me to get their work added on here!
in the mean time, you guys can mess with the Utilities in the Vibrant section just to get a feel for it

Instructions
Download. Note: you must have Java installed to run this app
WHILE YOU ARE DOWNLOADING MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP
Unzip the folder. Please keep it intact. Moving files around in there will probably break the functionality.
Run ACS.jar.
Choose desired apps.
Wiping Dalvik cache is recommended, but it will take you about 5 minutes to boot
Copy flash.zip to your internal sd card
Flash with CWM
Linux users: if you are running Linux I advise you to use the run.sh file to run the program, otherwise it may use your home directory to store files
Mac users: you need to have java 1.6 installed for this to work. i tested this on a friend's mac (running 10.5.8 & java 1.5) and it wasn't working. also i was not able to update her java to 1.6 either. so i'm assuming you need to have snow leopard installed for this to work...
Devs:
Check out this reference guide for more info on setting up a repo list. Feel free to contact me for any clarification. It's really not hard to do it, just have to understand how the app works a little. The guide should give insight and instruction. Contact me to add your repo to the list.
Options Note
If you want to change the location of system apps, please make your selections first THEN change the location

Thank you, will give this a try tomorrow.... err I guess that would be today, lol.

That's a neat idea.

This looks really interesting. Gonna have to try it out.

will give this a shot tommorow

Thanks for making it multi-platform dude!
I haven't tried using it to mod any roms, but it does start up and show dialogues on the Mac OS X 10.6.6 with Java 1.6. The minor annoyance is that it creates the kitchen folder where the jar-file is.
cпасибо!

Looks very polished. Good job!

It's supposed to do that =/
On a side note, if no one wants to add the Stock AT&T apps I guess I could do it. I don't have a Cappy, but are there any strange APK names I should be aware of?

Wow, this is really cool. We're getting to the point where ROM flashers can very easily make their own customizable ROMs without breaking a sweat!

Feel free to take anything from my sig and add it.
I only tinker, but if I think it has looked cool on my phone, I post it.

No captivate roms/themers/moders have requested to add a section for their apps.
Over on the Vibrant I added stock apps and utilities, and other people maintain the other lists. However I don't have a captivate, so it's all community dependent

we need to get them to add to it!

​
This is it. Continuum v3 is here.
There are many things that I'm working on but this is what I'm able to give you right now. The ROM is stable and fast.
It was rebuild from scratch on JS7 base. All mods were implemented clean to the new framework and no files were modified than the ones that needed modifications for adding extra features.
The themed version comes with my beloved Sensation. I hope you'll like it.
I take, however, requests for other themes. I do not want foreign frameworks in my ROM!! They create problems including battery drain. So I will rebuild those themes on my framework.
This release focuses on battery life so a lot of parts have been tweaked to help achieve the best results
This version as well uses undervolting! If you know your phone doesnt like it or you wanna be safe, using 7zip, open the ROM,s zip, go to system/etc/init.d and remove S_volt_schedulerthan you may flash the ROM .

install Firefox (if you dont have it already installed)
install this extension
restart firefox and click on the download link.The download dialog will appear, from the list of options, select DownThemAll! Chose a folder where you want to download and hit Start!
*Tip: for faster download, in Firefox go to Tools - DownThemAll Tools - Preferences - Advanced - Advanced download control and set Max. number of segments per download to 10 and hit OK.
This is a download accelerator so please do not try to use it with hosting sites like rapidshare and megaupload, it will not work. The only one I know it works is mediafire.
Instructions for making your own battery mod / custom icons set on UOT kitchen:
Extract framework-res.apk from the downloaded ROM (themed or unthemed, they will both work) or from the addons which are marked as UOT
Go to UOT kitchen
Chose what the type of battery you want. Play through the options and choose the one that suits you
If you chose SCB with %, Version Z, Custom type, colors, the next step is for customizing the types and colors. As well, is your choice.
If you chose SCB with %, Version [A-O](that O might change in the future) there will be a step to chose the type.
After this click next.
Now you will have an option to chose if you want to customize Icon types. This will change your notification icons, if you want to change them then select themed icons set, if not just click next.
Next step is to personalize the notification bar. You cannot use this function as the notification bar in Samsung ROMs is contained in twframework-res and UOT kitchen cannot process that file. So dont change any value and click next.
Now you may choose a custom boot animation. My ROM already comes with a custom bootanimation but if you wish to change it, I cannot stop you. So, if you want to change it, select from the dropdown menu /system/media/ (Cyanogen based ROMs) and then chose the boot animation that you wish and click next.
Now you will be able to chose a set of custom windows animations. It is fully compatible with this ROM so you can chose the one you like. You can preview them in the left after selecting. Click next when you finish
Here you upload the framework-res file that you extracted from the ROM archive. Click on first option of choose file and browse to the place you have framework-res.apk. Chose it and click next.
Now it will upload it to UOT server for processing.
You have to wait for the cooking to finish and you will be given a zip named UOT********.zip
Download that zip, put it on your sdcard and install it from recovery
You're done. You just customized the look of your phone by yourself. Good job, I bet it looks awesome
OLD
Instructions on how to make your phone look like in the screenshoots (themed version)
During installation there will be copied few files on your internal sdcard:
Titanium backup of themed launcher pro - be aware that this will rewrite an existing backup of Launcher Pro
Titanium backup of fancy widget
Sense dock and a blank icon in a folder called Sensation_content
After installation, go to TitaniumBackup and restore (App+Data) LauncherPro and FancyWidget
Hit then Home button and you will be presented with an option to chose your home screen.
com.sec.android.app.twlauncher is themed TouchWizLauncher
LauncherPro.. well, is the themed LauncherPro
Select Launcher Pro, long press the screen and add Fancy widget to your home screen. If the weather icons do not appear, make sure you have network location enabled. The widget needs to know the location for which the weather should be shown.

I guess what I should of asked is do I need to go back to stock Eclair 2.1 as per the general instructions for installing a ROM? Or can I just use clockwork recovery.
and thanks for the new ROM!

So it can be installed over v.2.3, right?
Will the GPS on this ROM be as good as it was on the v.2.3?

Not necessary. If you are running a 2.2.1 ROM currently, you dont have to.
I didnt go to stock for a month now and I flashed god knows how many times.

[Guide] A complete MiniCM9-3.0.4 how-to

Hi guys
This post is essentially going to be an aggregation of info regarding MiniCM9, bringing together in one place all the random bits and pieces I found to get things working at their best. I originally started writing this for myself (to keep track of things when updating/reinstalling) but as I've responded to questions here and there I thought it might be good to have one place to link to, rather than trying to find my previous posts.
MiniCM9 basic setup
SD card:
Create an ext4 swap partition from CWM; (at least 128M, I recommend 256M+)
How to get a swap partition of any size OR configure swap separately from an sd-ext partition:
Follow this basic tutorial
If you just want to adjust the size of your swap partition and/or sd-ext partition, it's not necessary to completely erase your SD card/remove all partitions and start from scratch
You can work with the Resize/Move options and still get what you want.
System setup:
Flash minicm9 and gapps as normal (in the installer, choose only apps you use; would not recommend Apollo)
Boot up your system, grab your favourite root browser from Google Play, and remove remaining unwanted applications and services (e.g. for me, Google Talk, FM radio, etc.) by deleting them from system/app.
Do not 'install a2sd' via console
System configuration:
Set up your autobrightness settings like this
Test your pulse notification light. If it stops flashing after a couple of seconds, go to system/lib/hw via your root file manager and delete/rename lights.shakira.so. Once you reboot, your notification light should work normally.
Disable Google's location service unless you need it as it may drain battery (GPS is okay)
Min CPU: 320MHz (important!); Max CPU: whatever you feel like (provided your phone can handle it)
Governor: SMARTASSV2
No Undervolt
Disable zRam
Do not enable 'Allow purging of assets'
Do not enable Kernel samepage merging
Surface dithering: Yes
16bit transparency: No
Disable boot animation: No
NB: minicm9 settings will not pick up on your swap partition (claiming swap is disabled). Open terminal emulator and type in 'free' to see your available memory, it should correctly show the size of your swap partition.
Further performance tweaks:
Do NOT use Supercharger.
Move large apps that are not usually running to SD (e.g. Opera) via Settings»Apps»Move to SD. If this option is greyed out, follow this guide to move them anyway (NB: the command for the ICS platform is set-install-location rather than setInstallLocation). You do not need App2SD.
Optimise your SD card's read ahead cache (significantly increases read/write speeds on higher end SD cards). There are two ways to do this; by manually creating a script (recommended) or by installing a third party application.
To do it via application, install SD-Booster and a SD card speed test of your choice. Adjust the cache until you get an optimal read/write speed (for me, this is at 4096KB) – more is not always better. You can uninstall the speed tester once you're done
To manually set your SD read ahead cache on boot, go to this thread and follow the instructions for Version 1. Replace 128 with the optimal value for your SD card (determined as above).
Set swappiness:
You can customise your swappiness by creating/adding the following to userinit.sh in data/local/
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
#Swap
swapon dev/block/mmcblk0p3
echo [COLOR="Red"]50[/COLOR] > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
Red value ranges from 0 (don't swap unless you run out of memory) to 100 (swap from the get go). Feel free to experiment; in my experience performance is most stable around 50. Don't forget to set permissions (to rwxr-xr-x).
You should now have a beautifully smooth, stable miniCM9 on Trebuchet (battery life should be good). Stock browser should run fine thanks to swap, apps will stay in memory and load quickly. Make sure to free up apps via home button » swipe if you no longer need them, especially if running on less swap memory. ​
How do I get ... working? / Extras
Set custom lock screen icons:
After selecting your application, tap on the icon to get a menu allowing you to choose from your gallery or system (white lock screen-styled icons)
Enable lock screen rotation:
Follow this guide to patch your framework-res.apk to allow lock screen rotation, or replace yours with the one attached (but first, make sure you are using the same version of miniCM9! the apk is for 3.0.4). In either case, backing up is a good idea, folks
framework-res.apk for miniCM9-3.0.4
Fix Japanese font rendering on ICS:
Probably not something that concerns most people; but if you are using Japanese on your android, you will have noticed that by default, Chinese versions of unicode unified ideograms are rendered (which can be less than optimal at times). To get proper Japanese text output across applications, you will have to install the Japanese Droid font (DroidSansJapanese) and insert a reference to it in your font fallback .xml.
To make your life easier, I have included the files in a zip for your perusal:
Extract the files
Copy DroidSansJapanese.ttf to system/fonts
Replace your fallback_fonts.xml in system/etc with the one provided
Japanese font files for ICS
Dark Holo themed apps:
If you like the dark Holo ICS theme, and want your applications to suit the rest of your system, you can find various inverted google apps for ICS-based roms around the web. I've included the ones I use and work well on miniCM9 on our X8 here for convenience.
Extract the files
Replace your apps in system/app with the ones included
Reboot & enjoy a true ICS UI
Dark Holo ICS themed apps for miniCM9
Get voice input working on miniCM9:
If you've ever used voice input features, you will have noticed these (while present) fail to work after installing the rom. So will any type of android-based voice recognition. To get basic voice functionality working (sadly not ICS flavoured) do the following:
in system/app delete your voice search apk
reboot your system
now find Google Voice Search 2.1.4 (for Android 2.2+) on Google Play and install it.
voice search and recognition should now work as it did on older roms.
To get voice typing working you will have to replace your input method (or install it as an additional IME to switch to when you want to use voice typing).
install IceCream Sandwich-ICS Keyboard by VLLWP from Google Play (for Android 1.6+). DO NOT UPDATE this, as its Jelly Bean version or other ICS keyboards will not work with voice typing.
enable and select it as an input type and hit the microphone key. Confirm the prompt, and you should be able to use basic android speech recognition in any text form you like.
Lightweight Jelly Bean keyboard:
More of a recommendation, but what it says on the tin;
get this app from Google Play (keep in mind like stock keyboard it won't work with voice input, so you might want to run it in addition to the aforementioned) and install it -- once you're all set you can now safely remove LatinIME.apk from your system/app
you save memory (both in usage footprint and SD card space) and get a fully featured Jelly Bean keyboard with functional word prediction in exchange, which is a fair trade, no?
​
... and that is all I can think of right now. May update this thread as things change

Nice! I want to ask you something. Is the way to check if swap work? I am not sure
1. Create partizion (256 mb)
2. Create file userinit.sh and added it into sdcard
3. Copy and paste it into data/local/
4. Set permission
5. Reboot
Correct?

Does it improve battery saving or performances ???

Thank u for ur efforts...
It really helps.
To the modslease make this thread sticky.

Swap should work as soon as you have a partition on current versions. The userinit is just if you want to set swappiness/specifics.
The way to check is going to terminal emulator and typing in 'free'. You should see your swap space listed.

Does what improve battery life/performance? Both are more than decent with the settings provided, if that's what you mean. I'll see about adding screenshots.

Can i change the size of the swap partition¿ i have 128 and want 256... thanks

Why would you disable KSM? Ksm improves performance. It only drains a bit of battery and doesnt harm anything.

Have not extensively tested it with the latest build so it may have been fixed since, but last I tried it caused performance/stability issues for me aside from the battery drain.

Yes, using gparted (see linked tutorial) you can resize your existing partition.

did any1 faced with lag on calls? ei: when i'm reciving call, the screen is black for 2-5secs, and after lights on. i dont have any idea whats the problem, maybe can it be the low cpu freq?

Do i need to enable swap on performance settings?

Not if you have a partition, no.

nice broo..!! About swap,I must download swaper2 from market ??? or use from system rom only ???

The first post says it all.
You don't need anything except the rom (+ kernel) itself.

The apps on my phone often take 2-5 seconds to start. I thought it is because some of them are on the ext4 partition, but even the settings app does the same, and it is really annoying. When I click on an app, the ICS gradient dark background is shown for some seconds, then it is loaded. Is there a solution for this? Or is MiniCM9 just like that?

The first time you open apps might take a second to load (depending on your settings)
After that they should remain cached in normal use and open more or less instantly, without the empty screen.
