Baking or cooking a rom means you take a stock rom. Theme it. Add some tweaks and release.

This rom is built from aokp source code and merged with the Epic 4g touch device tree provided by Cyanogenmod team. I also did alot of code tweaking and fixing to make it 98% stable. Plus nothing beats an AOSP ROM.

No samsung framework. No samsung bloatware. Its also easier on the eyes.

*Edit* Will the recommended kernel fix this? How do I install it? Thanks

Look above this post of yours on page 1 that I'm quoting Taco. Changing the setting in your build.prop file should fix the pixelation/tearing you're seeing.

Open build.prop in a text editor.

Find the line hwui.disable_vsync=true

Change true to false, save the file and reboot.

How does this build compare to the Times_Infiity AOKP build on XDA? Is see it uses the kernel from Times. Is this part of the same dev work?

Two different builds.

Anyone have a comparison of the 2? Why flash one over the other?

I've seen some say DK's build here is "better". I'm not sure how much bias is in there though. It does appear that DK has put together an excellent AOKP build though. Hopefully others will chime in here that has experience with both, but I'd say give this one a try if you've run times_infinity's build for any reasonable length of time and draw your own conclusions.

I can honestly say with no bias whatsoever after running both. Both builds are very similar although this one does seem much more stable. I can only base my opinion on the fact that I've run both for about 48hrs each. Times' build is a very stable build. However I had 2 or 3 random reboots while using it. After a similar amount of time with the same setup I've had no issues with DK's build. I've had a couple of data loss issues on both but I think that has more to do with our phone and Sprint. Hope this helps. It's just my simple account of probably the last 4 days running both.

I have what is probably a dumb question. But I'm new to Sprint and how do you update your prl and profile on this?

You don't. Update Profile, Update PRL and dialer programming codes are not available on E4GT AOSP ROMs (yet). In order to do these things, the best/easiest option is to "temp flash" EL29 then flash back to your AOSP ROM. It's quite easy and you don't lose any data or settings in the process.

Here's qbking77's video walkthrough on how to do it:

Is it really worth doing that?

Unless you're having data connection issues, like problems with sms or something along those lines, I'd say no. However, I temp flashed EL29 recently as I wasn't able to get a GPS lock on CM9. So I temp flashed EL29, downloaded GPS Status and got a GPS lock, powered off and reflashed CM9. Now my GPS locks like a champ.

Updating your Profile and PRL is rarely necessary.

Gotcha, thanks for the advice and answers to my questions.

So I'm guessing everyone is using the kernel flashed with the rom..

Does the "disable camera shutter sound" work on Stable 1? It worked on RC4/RC5...but it doesn't seem to be silent with my S1 flash.
