[ROM][ACS]SyndicateROM Frozen 1.2
Wow, just wanted to copy and paste this rom here on PpcGeeks. All credit and original thread is found here: http://www.forums.acsyndicate.net/sh...ROM-Frozen-1.2 Version 1.2 - with out kernel Updated 6/19/2011 Screenshots, downloads, and changelog in second post! Why SyndicateROM Frozen? All of you Epic users who have been around the XDA community for a while probably recognize the SyndicateROM name. The original DI18-based SyndicateROM was one of the fastest, most refined, and most popular ROMs of its time. SyndicateROM Frozen is based on the official EC05 release of Android 2.2.1, and is built from the ground up for speed, stability, and battery life. What's the secret sauce? Carrier IQ, the infamous Sprint spyware package, has been completely removed! More details in the second post - you won't believe what we found! Themers and other mod developers take note, many modifications were made to the system in order to achieve this exclusive feature. What's in SyndicateROM Frozen? SyndicateROM Frozen is: based on EC05 kernel rooted deodexed zip-aligned PNG-optimized hand-tweaked from the ground up designed for EXT4 CWM 3.0.2.5 compatible Unlike the original, SyndicateROM Frozen comes in only two editions - Standard, and Fully Loaded. Standard is designed to be a combination of the previous Superslim and Standard - a lean, mean, super-fast battery-sipping machine. The developer's choice! SyndicateROM Standard includes LauncherPro. All Samsung and Sprint bloatware are completely gone! SyndicateROM Fully Loaded features TouchWiz instead of LauncherPro, and adds in Social Network Sync, Facebook, BuddiesNow, Program Monitor, and the stock live wallpapers. All the rest of the bloat is still gone! Both versions feature Wireless and Wired Tether preinstalled! Tweaks and bugfixes in SyndicateROM Frozen and the Twilight Zone kernel include: any and all lag completely destroyed Network speeds at their peak - no throttle service, buffers adjusted 3G, 4G, and WiFi are stable Video recording issues have been resolved RNDIS no longer conflicts with ADB 1xRTT properly displays, instead of the erroneous 3G icon The Sprint HTTPPD and RTSP proxies have been completely removed The 'battery full' popup and sound has been removed SMS/MMS messages and email have been removed from the call log A restart button has been added to the shutdown menu "AM" and "PM" have been removed from the clock Did we mention Carrier IQ is gone? Twilight Zone has custom undervolts using Voltage Control Twilight Zone features optimizations from 2.6.34, and many optimizations for the Cortex A8 Animations correctly smoothed Transition animation speed automatically set to fast on first boot, completely user-adjustable after Hardware keyboard response improved with the Impaled Speed Demon Tweak Loud boot sound removed Ads in apps and websites blocked Bluetooth voice dialing fixed Screenshots Downloads - Version 1.2 - EXT4 only - See Installation Notes We do not use file hosts with waiting times! Download "Standard" (Direct) | Mirrors: Mirror 1 To enable journaling: See here Addons: TW4 :: AM/PM Restore, Fix 24-Hour Time (mirror):: Installation Notes - READ THIS! "WATCH THIS! You need CWM 3.1.0.1 already installed. You need a froyo kernel if coming from gb or eclair If you are not on an EC05 rom or SyndicateROM Frozen 1.0.1/1.0.2/1.1.0/1.1.1: Use Odin to flash the EC05 modem. UNCHECK EVERYTHING EXCEPT "AUTO REBOOT". Ensure you are on CWM3.1.0.1. Wipe data for best results, and flash the ROM. If you coming from the EC05 OTA (stock): Download the ROM and copy it to your SD card first, then use the CWM3.1.0.1 one-click, wipe data, and flash the ROM. If you are coming from another EC05 ROM with a working modem: Just flash the ROM with CWM3.1.0.1. If you get any FCs at all, wipe data and reflash. If you are coming from SyndicateROM Frozen 1.0.1/1.0.2/: Flash the EC05 modem in Odin (UNCHECK EVERYTHING EXCEPT "AUTO REBOOT"), then flash the ROM. This package will automatically backup and restore your data. A little lost on the above? User qbking77 has created a how-to video. Just click here.

Other than Carrier IQ's removal, the Throttle Service has also been removed, along with the Sprint RTSP and HTTPPD proxies. Aside from those changes they are stock. Note all of the APKs in that package must be given the same signature, along with anything else using android.uid.shared (including TouchWiz, Sns*, and more). If the CIQ removal process causes any unforseen issues, please join us at irc.fossnet.info #acs-users, we'll be happy to help. To themers: Your themes are still fully compatible with SyndicateROM Frozen! However, you should download the package above, and make sure that if your theme modifies any of the included files, you use the versions from this ROM to prevent FCs in your users' systems. Notes To get wireless tethering to work: Go into settings of the Wireless tether app before you start Change the Device Type to Epic Then, ensure that you are NOT on 4G Start the tether Once connected on 3G, you can turn on 4G, it will work now. NEVER turn on 4G before you start the tether If USB doesn't work, reboot. All themes must become compatiable Fully Loaded IS coming shortly Credits We would like to thank everyone below for their hard work, and for their valuable contributions, some of which we've included in this ROM.

Re: [ROM][ACS] SyndicateROM Frozen 1.0 (Manriki) :: EB13/EXT4 - *NO CARRIER IQ*, DETA
What Is Carrier IQ? Why Should We Care? Put simply - and bluntly - Carrier IQ is a software package buried deep within Android by Samsung at the behest of Sprint. It has been in active use since the time of the Moment, if not before. The company that develops it, also known as Carrier IQ, bills it as "Mobile Service Intelligence". In their own words, [T]he combination of the MSIP and IQ Insight lets you move seamlessly from broad trend data across many users, through comparative groups down to diagnostic data from individual devices. Now, not only can you identify trends, you have the power to drill down to specific instances, giving you the insight your specialists need to make a difference.On its own, that description can vary from harmless, to worrying, depending on how you look at it. It's not until one drills deep down into the system and ferrets out every piece of the software that one truly knows what it contains. As some of you might remember, ACS took the first steps toward disabling the Carrier IQ software with the release of SyndicateROM and Xtreme Kernel 1.0. That, however, didn't even scratch the surface. Carrier IQ's native libraries are plainly visible - libiq_client.so and libiq_service.so in /system/lib. During every boot, this service is launched - you can see it in Settings > Applications > Running Services as "IQAgent Service". These native libraries are called by non-native (Android application) libraries located in ext.jar (the client) and framework.jar (the service). Removal of these (rather obviously-named) libraries alone, be it the .so files or the libraries in framework or ext, will, obviously, break boot. So I - k0nane - had to dig deeper. To make a long story short, reference to the IQ Service and IQ Client were littered across the deepest portions of the framework, and some of the most basic functions of the Android system as we know it. Carrier IQ as a platform is designed to collect "metrics" at any scale. What I found it to hook into is far beyond the scope of anything a carrier needs - or should want - to be collecting. Carrier IQ sits in the middle of, and "checks" the data of, SMS and MMS messages. It listens for and receives every battery change notifications. It hooks into every web page you view, and every XML file your device reads. It receives every press of the touch screen. It 'sees' what you type on the physical keyboard. It reads every number you press in the dialer. It can track which applications you use, what 'type' they are, how often, and for how long. It hooks into data sent and received. I, and the rest of ACS, ask Samsung and Sprint - why do you want this information? Why do you need it? Why is the capability in place? The only saving grace - if there is one - to this nasty, ten-legged mutant spider is that its logs are off by default. During the investigation process, I was able to enter its UI. Below are two screenshots of it. http://img573.imageshack.us/img573/8...3174335.th.png http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/5...3174339.th.png That being said, the question still must be asked - why is the service even running? Why does Sprint and Samsung feel the need to leave a dormant monster in every one of its most loyal customers' phones? Here's the most important part (tl;dr): the Carrier IQ service is a drain on battery life and performance. ACS noticed a significant rise in Smartbench scores and overall system 'snappiness' after Carrier IQ's removal. In addition, with it removed, ACS team lead rjmjr69 saw 30 hours of battery life, with heavy use, on the stock battery.
