Re: [4-22-11][ROM] gingerbread-evo-deck [pre7][1.0]

*GPS - If you have trouble with your gps, it is recommended to do the gps fix which should only have to be done once. Tho i have noticed in testing, i was playing around with a 2.3.3 GB sense 2.1 rom, and after flashing to my phone, it borked my gps again. so i had to do the gps trick again. So there are some roms out there as in some of the first gingerbread builds that when flashed to our device, seem to be currupting our gps data. So please keep that in mind if you come back to this rom and your gps seems to not be working again.

**Gallery - The gallery app seems fine. Tho after some testing, videos with unsupported codecs being scanned by gallery will cause problems. Even take your cpu usage to 100% :P so please keep this in mind as well. I have 0 problems with the gallery app running on my phone.

I have decided to leave the voicemail app out, but can easily be installed with the apk from the OP.

*Future Plans of 1.1*
-2.3.4 Gingerbread
-720p recording.
-Default camcorder recording changed to mp4. (i tried already, but it caused problems. needs to have some more tlc done).
-Updated Honeybread theme.
-Few more default settings changed.
-Maybe a rom name? Maybe ill let you all decide.
-Wireless tether app without the need of a workaround and/or fix.

I would like to thank drew from team evervolv and the cm team for all of their help.

If i missed anything, it will be updated at release time. Thanks everybody for all of your support and help.
