Feedback welcome

I know lots of people are waiting for a 'clean ROM', but I'm not sure there's a huge amount of benefit. I removed Shozu as it was running at boot, most of the other stuff just sits there until you need it... and we're not exactly short of space are we?

Hats off to everyone who made this possible, secany, mrtoto, the PDAMobiz peeps and anyone else i've left out

benefit for a clean rom would be people could customise it exactly how they want... for example... i myself do not use apptodate or batti so the addition of these into your custom rom is useless for me! also... i am sure that there are peeps who would have no use for rdp.

just my 2p

[PaulOBrien]

Ah yes, but how clean is clean? My clean is not your clean etc. etc., hehe.

ATD has to be useful so you know when there's a new ROM build out no?

GPS Tweaks etc. WTFH... i'm preparing a performance tweaks pack (which includes that) for the next ROM.

Just going off at a slight tangent...is there a way to stop Shozu loading at boot? I've looked in Memmaid for it's start up item but don't recognize it.

[Deroo]

I downloaded it Paul. I'm loading it after I'm done posting this. I'd like to see what this offers, plus I'm sure I can help.

I have SK Tools and I went to disable it in the start up but it was not allowed so I went to the launch sequence and deleted the string in launch item 140 and it is done. go to HKLM\init\ and delete the string for launch 140 and you will be good to go

downloading~ thanks Paul!

btw, my Omnia was quite good on your last rom(HJ1 custom), but somehow it can't sleep.

i mean the screen are dim after 1 minute, but the device won't turn off itself after 2 minutes, the screen are still on.

Only hard-reset could get it back to normal.

Power settings:

Turn off backlight: 1 minute
Turn off device: 2 mintues

I don't know if it was a bug, but i only have this problem on your custom rom.

Anyway, much appreciate all your work!

[teixeira.vh]

Wow!!
Nice work Paul!
Maybe i'll wait for version 2.

Cumps,

what does the word "Optimised" mean when you said "Optimised Samsung applications" and whar are thess applications? im just wondering if i can apply this optimization without flashing the custom rom.

[PaulOBrien]

No, their size is optimised in ROM, so it's not relevant as something to do afterwards.

[jeffrey2000]

Is the "touch player" issue solved in this release?

[GSeeker2]

flash done! All things seem well.

*a bit faster than the original HJ5
*much bigger free Storage
*Shozu is gone

will report back if any bug found.
