I have optimized via PNG shrinking, zipaligning, and bloatware removal in this rom as much as I believe is necessary. This rom has been personally tested by me to flash over the stock 1.56.651.2, Fresh 1.0 and 1.1, unofficial MoDaCo 1.3a, and MoDaCo 2.0 without wiping. Warning: flashing from Fresh 1.1 and 1.0 may leave some of the fresh files on your phone aka you may notice stuff is still "fresh".

Last but not least, always do I nandroid backup before you install this rom or any addon. I take no responsibility for any damage done to your phone.

FAQ

Q: What version of Android is this ROM?
A: This is Android 1.5 aka Cupcake.

Q: Do I need to do a wipe before installing?
A: No. Enjoy switching roms without loosing any apps or data.

Q: Can I use GCK or MCK with this ROM?
A: Yes. Both work fine.

Q: I'm having problems downloading apps from the Market; what do I do?
A: Sign into Gtalk. Apparently the two are closely related even though you'd never guess. For an in-depth discussion head over to this thread.

Q: How do I get back an app that you removed?
A: If whatever reason you want back some silly stock app, I recommend you use flipzmode's pre-kitchen.

Q: There are still apps in this rom I don't want; How do I remove them?
A: Head on over to How remove apps thread for detailed instructions.

Q: Certain websites don't load properly or at all! Help?
A: Download the hosts.zip file; unzip it and read instructions.

Q: What is this whole Apps2SD thing about?
A: Apps2SD is a script that will do exactly as it implies so you are no longer limited to your phone's internal storage. You only need to format your SD card as FAT+ext2. Once that requirement is met, the rest will be automatic. Warning: Formatting your SD card will erase ALL of the data on it. If you want to keep it, make a backup.
