CleanROM was designed to be a cleaned up Sprint Stock ROM. I removed all of the Sprint bloatware and made some minor changes under the hood. I am using the picasticks-07 kernel for overclocking. The ROM defaults to a safe 748MHZ but can be pushed as far as 846MHZ. You can change the clock speed to your liking with a program like SetCPU. You can also use this or similiar programs to return to the stock speed of 600MHZ and still benefit from the improved kernel. I have added an updated HOSTS file for ad blocking purposes. The only added apps are Hotspot Widget and Quick Boot (Reboot). Other than that its a pretty pure Android ROM.

ROM is deodex and all apps are up to date as of 11/6/2011

Enjoy!

Yeah, you can use the themes that are listed in this forum and on SDX Developers and possibly some of the themes on XDA Developers (although I have not tested any themes on XDA Developers yet). Here is the thread I grabbed some themes out of and tested: http://forum.androidcentral.com/lg-o...emes-here.html I have not tested them all but if one or two worked they should all work.

As far as Apps to SD, its native in Froyo therefore I made no changed to the OS in regards.

The themes at SDX developers are outdated, that's actually my post over there.

I'm pretty sure the themes we have listed in the Theme_Team thread will cause a boot loop with this rom because we have included the services.jar from Reborn, but anyone is welcome to try them.

*****MAKE A NANDROID FIRST*****


****EDIT**** -- I just tested one and yep they boot loop -- DON'T FLASH Theme_Team themes on anything but Reborn ROM. At least for now.

Nice, an alternative to kinda fill the void between shellROM and rebornROM. Nice to have something like this. May try this soon. I am out of town at the moment.

[Magicman08]

I will definitely download this and check it out, so far between the most recent ROMS available on here scott pilgrims, aosp, reborn, and slideROM; I like The Scott Pilgrim ROM (CM7 Gingerbread, Zefie Edition) (Current: 04282011).

So this should be fun to run it for a day or two and check it out. Most importantly as of now, everything works! (ttbomk)

Thanks for the heads up. I will update OP with this info.

No problem, Nobody likes a boot loop. LOL

Its clarified now.

Question, and this is just me being picky: why did you link to a rooting thread outside of Android Central when we have our own rooting thread as well as a one-click utility?

Because I like that rooting method better, it doesnt require a PC. But in the spirit of keeping this an android central centric post I have modified the OP to reflect using your method of root. Great method by the way.

Not needing a computer is nice but honestly I think just about everyone has a computer these days. And thanks!

Just a suggestion, you should also link to the manual method as well. We're all about choices here

I agree with your statement about everyone having a PC but.. I simply said that I liked the method better because it didn't require PC. I never inferred users wouldn't have a PC. I think that you are believing that was my inference.

I appreciate all your suggestions. If you would like to continue this discussion or have any more suggestions could you please PM with them instead of making your critique of my post a public discussion?

Thanks!

How does the overall speed of this ROM compare to stock? I'm basically looking for a ROM for my wife and daughter's phone that doesn't stray far from stock. Basically, remove bloatware, free up some memory, and speed things up a bit. It seems this ROM is ideal for what I'm looking for and wondered about how much internal storage is freed up along with performance improvements...

I wasn't trying to critique your post in any negative way, just trying to help make it better. Yes I will PM you for further suggestions.

Great questions... Overall the ROM is peppier than the stock rom because it is overclocked by about 25% from stock. Also the kernel is more efficient than the stock kernel due to optimizations that were done in the kernel. You can read more about the kernel here:

EDIT: And there is 122 MBs of internal storage after a fresh flash. Thats slightly less than the stock ROM. The stock ROM with all of the updated apps (Market, gmail, maps) and super user and wifi tether installed is about 127MBs.

Hope this helps.

First, thanks for the information and thanks for putting this ROM together! I've download the JDK and Android SDK. (plus your ROM). I'm just waiting on the phone to come back that I'm going to root. Daughter took off on me... As soon as she gets back, I'll get it rooted and let you know how it goes.

Another question/observation -- don't know if it is interesting to you/your ROM or not... Please understand it is just my observation and in no way a critique.

The Droid Eris is a similar phone by HTC a couple of years ago. One of the aftermarket ROMs moved dalvik from one location to another -- basically in an area that was "reserved" but not used by any big degree. In doing so, it freed up a TON of internal space... By no means am I one to be telling others how to develop, but I just wanted to pass this along in the event that there is something similar going on in the Optimus S... It's called cache2cache and is in the ROM called xtrSense 5.01. ZachXTR is the dev on it and his ROM absolutely FLIES over the stock one...

here's the description from the ROM:

Cache Location (Cache2cache):
By default, the dalvik-cache has been relocated from the internal /data/dalvik-cache/ directory to the internal /cache/dalvik-cache directory. The Eris comes with an internal /cache/ file block of 130mb that is not used! After reviewing a number of xda member file system usage reports (thanks xtrROM and xtrSENSE users!) the MOST reported use of this space was 5%... So by moving the dalvik-cache to this free area you now have over 150mb on internal /data/ for apps and over 75mb in internal /cache/ for dalvik-cache. This means that you can probably install close to 75 apps WITHOUT having to partition and move anything to the SD Card ext!

You can also move the dalvik-cache to your sd card ext or back to the stock internal /data/ file block.

Again, thanks for your efforts in putting this together. Hopefully I'll have a chance to root her phone in a couple of hours. Oh yeah, I like the built-in ad blocking.

No, I really appreciate that suggestion. I was contemplating this tweak in a future release but wasnt sure if it was worth it... I think it would be... Thanks!
