It was, originally to be a private test. But no one responded when it was originally posted on 1/5, so I changed my format to a public Beta. This thread came to the top of the forum today when sgc144 found it and posted. Please don't hold that against me.


Anyway, it is cutting edge, but it's just not private.

What are the bleeding edge changes? (XIP/Kernel/etc.) Or are there changes that may simply just make things unstable?

Good question. This build descended from early non-released builds in which I experimented with placement and usage of various files. I'm looking to lighten the memory load, so I also did some work in some of the OEMs to see if I could eliminate some fat. I've had some good results, but I've also had some inconsistent and unstable builds. Also, I never realized just how easy it is to wind up with a non-bootable ROM. In other words, just because G'Reloc ran, it doens't mean it's gonna boot!

usually non-booting is b/c of (in particular order) XIP, .ROM, .VM failure to run PROVXMLS, or something else in SYS .... usually not OEM unless it is a crucial driver

I'm honored that you would even take the time to look at my ROM! :)

Hopefully by Saturday, I'll have it a little further along in terms of fixing the few bugs that have been found so far!
