INTRO:

Ginger Snap is the successor of Gamer's Talho Rom (GTR) and Moto RAZR-UI, this ROM is based on CM7.2 latest nightlies build, basically it's an optimized Ginger Bread ROM with some customization and modifications, light weighted bareboned ROM, meant to be slick, fast and slimmed a typical user and gamers would like to have. Now Ginger Snap offers the look and feel of Stock LG ROM. Everyone love's the stock ROM but we had some problems because its NOT customizable and not as FAST as CM in terms of performance and smoothness, that is why the IDEA of getting the stock ROM looks and feel with CM features and performance will be the best combination will ever had for our devices.



DISCLAIMER

Your warranty is now void. Please READ.

I as the OP of this ROM is not responsible in any of the following terms and conditions, like for bricked devices, dead SD cards,thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm application failed.
Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM i.e (Ginger Snap) before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger on me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

Re: [ROM]-GinerSnap 1.3|7-15-12|Stock LG UI!

DO NOT INSTALL GAPPS AT THE SAME TIME!!!! that was my problem!!!

this should probably be in op for newcomers to minimize confusion and future repetitive posts...

Re: [ROM]-GinerSnap 1.3|7-15-12|Stock LG UI!

Working quite well here. Very fast. Took several reboots to settle in and not have very slow app response, but after about the 5th or 6th reboot after restoring my apps all is well. Great work!
