i was reading a little more about it.. so no sound as far as ringtone etc..

this is for sure a step forward and exciting but i think i will wait a little more.... some very talented people are working on it so im sure it will get there...

awesome stuff guys, keep it up.

can anyone explain if there are benifits to loading andriod from a stripped rom vs. my already made rom. I would like to try it out but i still would like to get back to my own wm rom too, if there is no performance difference then ill just stick with what i got. It seems to me that if it resets the phone to load from storage card then the underlying os shouldn't be a factor right? I would assume this stripped main purpose is for wicked fast boot to then load andriod...

gsm tp2 are about 100% functional for awhile now. and theres app for dualboot time start up.

calkulin im loading up late tonite when the family to go sleep and digging in with real feedback on your rom.

im assuming that we might be able to store the android files directly to device memory...

we will find all these things out soon...

thx

I guess that would be one benefit of the stripped rom, if we can load the android onto device memory I am sure performance would be better than running from the storage card. So question is can this be done?

Calkulin is it possible to look into pre-loading the Gen.Y DualBOOT v1.0.5.0 app to one of your future update.?

Just wondering I dont mean to throw too much your way on the first date.
