[Rom 2.3.7] MyGingerB 1.0.3 stable


Likes:
Fluid performance – didn’t notice any lag
Default Gingerbread launcher – fast and lovely!
Better memory management – features RAM optimizer from juwe11
Great battery life (with the Ubuntu kernel)
Nice splash-screen animation – won’t hurt your eyes
No illegal reboots
Camera is slightly, but noticeably faster than stock CM7.1
Quad score @600 MHz on-demand – 898
Quad score @672 MHz on-demand – 1004

Issues:
Wi-Fi performance was not as expected – was expecting it to be better than the stock CyanogenMod version. May be it’s just my phone!
Volume rocker wake is missing (I use it a lot) – because it’s primarily designed for Spice MI 300?
Signal fluctuations when on 3G – over optimized for Malaysian networks?
So, it’s time to install this ROM on your phone…

Download: MyGingerb-1.0.3stable-signed.zip

Pedro Brandão said...

Can I flash this over a Cyanogenmod 7.1 aPT v1, using recovery via Update ?

terry said...

better flashing from cm7.1 stable with eav6 kernel.

terry said...

@nisz
try boot from pc or fastboot.

Pedro Brandão said...

I have Cyanogenmod 7.1 aPT v1 with eav11 kernel...
Is is safe to flash it ?

terry said...

this one better fluidity and no ram eater roms.been using at least 2 weeks with no lags,playing hd 400p without problem and plays games without prob,a lil bit prob on wifi but every roms out there bundle with wifi problem.

terry said...

its time to wake up from phantom rom..
@Pedro Brandao
never flash from that rom,but its a same base,try it.and please give any comment here after flashing,i really wanna know what happen

Pedro Brandão said...

I got an error on updating it... couldn't update through this rom

Pedro Brandão said...

@terry
gonna try eav6 and stick with it... its the one I like more, mostly because of stability and battery life. Although I liked very much of Cyanogenmod 7.1 aPT v1 , the only problem is just the battery life that because of the memory overclocking doesn't last a day.

Thanks any way

Nisz said...

@terry
no its not working it doesn't responds to the power button it seems is there any way i can make it boot again????????

Oleg said...

some install instructions would be helpful for beginers.thx

godend said...

step1:copy the zip file to sd card.
step2:install zip from sd under recovery mode.
step3:reboot.

Sanjay said...

This rom drained my battery flat in 8 hrs without doing anything. It kept my phone warm throughout as if some process was running in background even when the screen was off.

Sanjay said...

But using same rom with ubuntu 11 kernel gives better result.

anon. said...

All no problem, after flashing to edgar@ubuntu kernel #3, battery lasted 30 hours.

Gadget shop said...

What link a kernel edgar@ubuntu kernel#3 give me please thankyou

Bạn không hiền said...

@anon:U said that "All no problem, after flashing to edgar@ubuntu kernel #3, battery lasted 30 hours", and what device you flashed?
Did you turn on Airplane mod and turn of all connectivities ?

anon. said...

I flashed on Spice Mi-300, nope I didn't turn on Airplane mode, though I disable mobile data all the time as I'm not using it.

wido said...

All good except what Leong CM said about camera, it's true.
And also the accelerometer it seems 90 and 270 switched? or is it just me?

tuan anh said...

Suyash Mohan said...

I have installed this rom. Everything is working fine but synchronization is not taking place. I have Enabled the auto sync, but it is not working. If I manually sync them even then it is not working. Because of this I cannot import my contacts from gmail. :-(

Nisz said...

@terry
thanks for trying to help but none of your methods worked. So i had to give it for repair now lets see if they can save my phone otherwise bye from the android world....

terry said...

@nisz
i m sorry 4 not be able to help u,really sorry.

Oleg said...

at godend thx for the help only one question remains waht rom should i use through sut lr before this update through zip?

syah fakhrul said...

if i now using 2.2 on my mi 300 phone then use this rom, there is possibility that i will have a network issues?

terry said...

@syah fakhrul
better from cm7 coz this rom base on cm

garz said...

yup wido is right accelerometer of 90 and 270 switched.

Suyash Mohan said...

There was some problem in market and synchronization but after restart the phone they worked. But USB thethering and Wifi Tethering are not working at all.

Can anyone suggest me a stable rom (2.1, 2.2 or 2.3) which runs smooth and have good wifi and tethering. I am tired off flashing all this roms.

Sanjay said...

@Suyash
Most stable ROM is phantom sky revolution , its froyo ROM.

androiddylan said...

The ROM has problem with camera zoom feature but it only occurs for 5 MP but try to lower the pixel it may work or should I say zoom is completely messed up.

I have tried ubuntu kernel 20 and it seems to work just fine. Wifi is good which is unusual and this only happened after flashing ubuntu kernel 20 and here is the link for ubuntu kernel 20 http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZVK7IUCF

I can say that for some reason, this ROM is far stable than the other 2 releases. PS Battery drains faster compare to Phantom but try to fastboot your phone, it may help in reducing the numbers of apps that should not work in its background.

androiddylan said...

terima kasih sangat kepada pemaju malaysia!Saya berharap seseorang dari Filipina boleh membangunkan ROM sendiri yang disesuaikan! I just used Google Translate.

terry said...

@all
GIAI IS COMING......

terry said...

Anyone see aevum around?

Mike said...

g-sensor x-axis inverted. Any fix for this? tried using the #11 and #20 ubuntu kernels, still inverted.

tuan anh said...

Way a new best rom, hix..

Ubi said...

Dude, when you're copying from my blog pls give proper credit. Otherwise, this 'likes' and 'issues' you've mentioned is nothing but plagiarism.

Unknown said...

For those who have problem using this ROM or any other CM based ROM, follow these error proof steps.

1 . Flash Firetrap 10 Final (Android 2.1, pre-rooted) nb0 file, download site (megaupload.com/?d=75CXDZWT)or stock ROM (Android 2.1, no root)
2 . Install ROM Manager from market, update clockworkmod twice to ensure, and move ROM manager to SD if can.
3 . Put MYGingerBread ROM on SD card and boot into recovery mode.
4 . Wipe data, cache and dalvik, then flash MYGingerBread zip from recovery, then reboot to new installed ROM.

These steps can be use on all Cyanogenmod based ROM with minimal error/bug. Flash right for problem free experience :D

zuckerburg said...

@angelictears
I followed your instructions but axis still inverted :'(

Unknown said...

@zuckerburg,
try to reflash again without data wipe, but wipe dalvik and cache. see if it helps.

ricar said...

I installed this [Rom 2.3.7] MyGingerB 1.0.3 stable .. It is great, and then I change my kernel to 2.6.32.9-SuperAosp.. the good thing in this kernel is it doesn't use much of the battery when screen is off, and when you use ur phone normally it would last a day.. that is why my fully charged battery lasted over 72 hours with fair use..I seldom open my phone only when there are text messages and when I have to search the net for mintues.. :) great rom..:) the key is the SuperAosp kernel..:)

Unknown said...

@ ricar

Thanks bro :D
Although the ROM featured SuperAOSP kernel as default :D

Owh, and did I mentioned that MYGingerBread 1.1.0 Gaia has been released? :)

zuckerburg said...

Thanks for the help :)

My orientation problem was fixed when i removed the batter for several minutes then put it back on. Got the idea from android pt.

btw, great rom u got here

zuckerburg said...

im on gaia now. so far its performing very great
smooth and stable. thanks for a wonderful rom
a great replacement for phantom :)

Mike said...

followed the suggested steps to flash myginger and gaia. still having inverted x-axis. removing battery doesnt seem to help. At initial start up after flashing i get an error saying something about "com.phone.process..." then i need to press force close. anyone had that error? still looking for ways to fix orientation.

ahwee said...

have you try flash to cm7.1 stable and reflash again to MyGingerB? That's solve my orientation problem.

zuckerburg said...

@mike
you can try my steps on flashing this properly.
i previously had problem with that inverted axis.
1. flash cm7.1 nb0 with sutlr. after that, phone will shut down.
2. master reset (red+cam+power)
3. reboot to recovery. update to mygingerb1.0.3
4. reboot and test the axis.
5. if still inverted, reboot again to recovery and install eav6 kernel
6. reboot again to test axis. if still inverted, remove battery for several mins.

That's the last step then it fixed my orientation problem.

androiddylan said...

@angelictears
how can I solve the problem with the camera? the zoom feature does not seem to work properly?

zuckerburg said...

i also have a question. why is it the when i use the camera(flash on) of all cm roms, picture is like cut into half? is there a fix for that?

Mike said...

@ahwee and zuckerburg. Thanks for the steps. ^_^
I've managed to fix the inverted axis by flashing mygingerb over 7.1 nb0. Currently on gaia with kernel ea#20

still had the force close error at start then sometimes keyboard pops up with menu soft key then i have to reboot to fix the issue

Mike said...

just tested the camera when i read the above post. There is a horizontal line at the middle of the pic that i took. it seems like the upper portion of the pic is brighter than the lower portion.

Aquarione said...

i can't use voice action for Iris. it will force close error. please help

AAllan said...

@angelictear: i'm currently using your rom right now (MyGingerB Gaia) and it works well on my Z71. One thing,what home launcher does this rom uses and how can i adjust it's settings? Again thank you and more power!!! ^_^

Unknown said...

@all

The camera problem does vary from phone to phone, some works very well and some does have problem. However, I am try to fix it and will include in future fix release :)

For voice input, i can confirm that there is a bug on it that will force close, or connection lose issue on it on several phones, although this is for Gaia only, 1.0.3 can use voice with no problem.

The launcher in this ROM are default launcher, used by Google Android and there are no setting for it, download any launcher that you like in the market. :D

androiddylan said...

@mike & zuckerberg
I also have that too, it is an inherited problem with most CM ROMs but I made some adjustment in its camera by decreasing contrast into half and increasing the sharpness to full.

@angelictears
your ROM has increased performance by applying V6 Supercharge and I have applied ubuntu 3 then ubuntu 20 to eliminate the incorrect orientation. Nice one!

Unknown said...

Thanks :)
And great feedback guys, hope you're enjoying it :)

A note on iris or other speech recognition app, I've tested and there's nothing wrong with it, I can use it just fine, try data wipe or reflashing. Also try to fix permission via rom manager, that'll fix most force close error..

@Angelictears: This is a great a rom (Gaia),works well on my Cherry Mobile Nova A100. One thing,i just noticed that my battery drains fast. Can you recommend me a good and stable kernel aside from the default. BTW, i'm using Juice Defender Ultimate.any inputs will be appreciated... Thanks again and more power!!! ^_^

govind said...

@allan : full charge ur battry and go to recovery.
erase Battry stats.
it will increase ur battry back up.
otherwise u can use ubuntu kernal#20 by edgur.

anon. said...

@androiddylan

what settings do you use on the V6 supercharger??

dhmaste said...

For everyone that has orientation problem, just try to flash cm 7.1 stable an then MyGingerB 1.1

terry said...

wow
so many problem,so many feedback,this is awesome :D

Anonymous said...

using MYGingerBread 1.1.0 Gaia with ubuntu kernel #20:
hotspot not working
pictures taken from camera has horizontal line but barely visible

mygingerberb 1.0.3 and gaia are very stable and fast roms. and i have no orientations problems using any of these two.i have also no reason to go back to phantom since these roms is very stable to use daily.

my methods is: cm 7.1 > mygingerb > gaia
thanks to Angelictears

androiddylan said...

@anon.
you need to have busy box 1.18.2 or lower and script manager.

anon. said...

No I mean these settings.

Unknown said...

@ all

A top tip, if your planning on testing kernel frequently, try to recalibrate your battery like Govind said above once you found a stable kernel that you like. changing kernel often corrupt the battery stats and often "draining" battery that shouldn't happened.

For V6 script, try setting 7 (6, 8 ,26, 28, 30 ,32mb) or setting 6 (6, 8, 26, 27, 28, 28mb)for balance between games and other apps.

camera are problem from cyanogenmod source bug, until now there are no fix although I believe cyanogenmod team are working hard to fix it, I myself are trying to fix it although no success. The hotspot depends on the kernel you are using, most 2.6.32.x kernel does not have a working wifi environment (never sleep, hotspot non working etc) as the kernel we're design to work on Froyo. Although kernel 2.6.35.x and above does fix the issue with wifi and hotspot, although there are no stable 2.6.35.x kernel available, you can try the latest 2.6.35.x kernel by edgar (links are not provided), but there are several bugs depends on users phone, several other 2.6.35.x kernel are

APt kernel v1.1
PlayOss kernels beta

patrick said...

hi jeffrey, thanks for your reply, but rebooting does not fix the problem. any other sugestions?

AAllan said...

@patrick: try resetting your home launcher,same happened to me.BTW im using ADW Launcher Ex.HTH

patrick said...

Problem of menu in app is solved. rebooting a few times helped anyway. thanks

AAllan said...

@Angelictear: i've experienced boot looping 3 times,why is it?it occured while the phone is rebooted or fresh from boot.help.

jeffrey said...

@patrick: good thing it was fixed... =)

@angelictears: is this rom compatible to any downloadable launcher? right now im using SPB shell 3d i hope it wont crash

S.line said...

@AAlan the reboots is because smartass governor have a bug. choose ondemand governor and apply on boot

AAllan said...

@ S.line: will do that, yeah the default is smartass.By the way,can i overclock this or just stick to 600MHz?Again, thanks in advance...

AAllan said...

The sms is delayed,and sometimes i was not able to receive any text msg.could this be fixed in the future update?everything works well except for the delayed sms.
