Another special thanks to jstntp for the continued support and everything else he does.

[WARN]This ROM is designed for ZVH radios ONLY! If you need to update (and retain root) please follow this link[/WARN]

Prerequisites:

Root
Custom recovery
ZVH Radio

[INFO]Instructions for installing:

from hosting!
Place on root of sdcard
Boot into recovery
Wipe: system, cache, data, dalvik cache (everything)
Flash
Flash ROM
Reboot
(RECOMMENDED and optional) To remove the sprint IQ files:
- After you have booted the phone completely, complete these steps:
- Reboot into recovery
- Flash noIQ patch from jstntp
  NOTE: This will remove the ROMs custom background. Download the original background from post #2 below.

[NOTE]
Advanced users:
DO NOT flash any files to try and enable apps 2 ext/sd, etc...!!
I believe this needed it's own thread, but I will start here with this.
I have integrated the DarkTremor a2sd script into the ROM to allow advanced functionality including dalvik-cache to cache (automatically upon flashing the ROM this is active) and apps store on the ext partition of an sd card. These features can be easily enabled and disabled from terminal (command prompt) or terminal emulator.

DO NOT USE THE GUI FROM THE MARKET!
Warning: The commands listed here take some amount of knowledge to understand. You must know what you are doing before you do it! If you experience data loss or more serious problems as a result of these commands, I am not responsible. Use this at your own risk. If this worries you, do not attempt this as the ROM works perfectly fine as it is. These commands are meant to extend the functionality and storage space utilized by the system.
DO NOT USE THE GUI FROM THE MARKET!

On to the explanations. THE ONLY TWO THINGS WE WILL COVER ARE apps2sd and the dalvik2cache! DO NOT ATTEMPT ANYTHING ELSE! DO NOT USE THE GUI FROM THE MARKET!
Starting with dalvik to cache:
Since dalvik to cache is installed upon flashing the ROM, the command to remove it is (adb shell if using computer):

Code:

su
a2sd nocache

To add it back to the ROM enter (adb shell if using computer):

Code:

su
a2sd cachepart

Now, the (not really, but could possibly be) complicated part.

apps2sd.
This will allow you to store all apps to the /sd-ext partition on the sdcard.
BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANYTHING BELOW THIS LINE, BE SURE YOU HAVE A PARTITION ON YOUR SDCARD AND IT IS FORMATTED TO EXT(2, 3, or 4)
If you do not follow the prerequisite above, do not report problems.
Make sure to bakup sdcard if you want your contents. Then partition the sdcard under advanced settings. Select your desired size. Select 0MB for swap. Once that is done and while still in recovery, enter the following commands (this will format to ext4):

Code:

mke2fs -m0 -b4096 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
tune2fs -O extents,uninit_bg,dir_index /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
e2fsck -yf /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
tune2fs -o journal_data_writeback /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

Once you know that you have an sd-ext partition (the steps above) you can execute the correct command to move all apps to that partition (this may be used in conjunction with dalvik2cache commands above).
Make sure you are completely booted into the Android OS (your phone is on and not in recovery).
From terminal (command prompt) or terminal emulator: to enable apps2sd (adb shell if using computer):

Code:

su
a2sd reinstall

To move all apps back to the internal memory (adb shell if using computer):

Code:

su
a2sd remove

What OC app that's free do you recommend?

**rod_munch** · 09-29-2011, 01:55 AM

Give one a try. Let us know how it works out for you.

I haven't had the opportunity to try one yet...

This is not CM7. This is a gingerbread ROM.

Be nice if a tweak can make the native Wi-Fi tethering work again...
Also, any chance for a percentage battery icon?

Do the new GB themes work with this?

I have updated Sprint Optimus guide to Rooting, ROMs, Recoveries & Themes for the new ROM. I just need to be sure about theming.

**Kamron** · 09-29-2011, 08:07 AM

Is there any chance that data2ext will work with this now or in the future?

Themes from this thread do work!
NOTE: Theme doesn't change keyboard color or launcher color.

**drinking12many** · 09-29-2011, 09:23 AM

Any chance of getting a wifi tether app that supports infrastructure mode or am I missing something in the options? The wifi tether 3 beta wont work I just get errors.

Otherwise working great.

UPDATE Got wifi tether 3 working : had to enable mss clamping and it worked.

Right now what works is the app that we have included. If it isn't working, make sure you followed the instructions properly.

Is it at all possible to add cm7 theme chooser? That would add
Near infinite themes . .

Is VVM included and working in this ROM? Also how about the bugs of the browser scrolling and the battery uptime? Thanks!

Sprint VVM is included. I don't personally use it, but it seems to be working.

I haven't experienced any bugs since upgrading to Gingerbread. No lag, slowness, etc that everyone else is reporting. Just make sure to wipe everything properly as the instructions list it!

As long as you format your ext partition as ext2 or ext3 I think it should work no problem. I am currently testing a new version of GingerKernel which supports ext4 and the Smartass2/InteractiveX CPU governors as well.
