So I just built my first IHO rom last week and I have a few questions...
My first IHO ROM was BACKside 9/15 and I have become quite accustomed to the initial screens. I assumed they were from IHO, but I guess they're JerryScript's additions. So I was surprised and, truth be told, a bit alarmed, when I saw the second LG screen show up. Where are these files located in the build tree?
BACKside 9/15 was 63mb but my build is 82mb. Why the big difference? Did I do something wrong, did JerryScript optimize and/or remove some things, or has the CM code gained serious weight in the last 3 months?
Most all the files in the zip have implausible timestamps -- most in Aug 2008. Why? I had to md5sum some files on my phone to prove to myself that I'm actually running files from my own ROM.
One of the reasons I am building my own ROM is that I'm a coder and I wanted to start hacking up some stuff. Some of the things I'm initially hacking are: (1) Reduce timeout for IMAP in email. The IMAP connector on our exchange server at work frequently gets stuck after the SSL exchange and fails to send a banner, leaving me frustrated for 60 seconds. No more! (2) Make an option to remove the emergency call button on the lockscreen so that my kids can't dial 911 when they happen to get hold of my phone. I know, I know, it's there for emergencies, but it's my phone and I'll take responsibility thankyouverymuch.
Anyone have other ideas?
Oh, and if there are any interested coders, one of my other projects is building an X server for Android. It's able to show xclock and xterm so far. It may not be practical but it's fun.
PS: Yes, I know I'm late to the party but having a newborn tends to put life on hold...
Hopefully my wife's new LG Slider (shhh, it's a christmas present) will have a community that is as active and fun as this one!
PPS: Thanks again to CM, blarfiejandro, and JerryScript for this awesome ROM! My phone would not be half as fun without it. You guys rock!
