Phantom Sky is the best..
none of the gingerbread ROMs have met my everyday needs
with Phantom sky i get 24hr battery with data on
and any gingerbread gives me approx 7-8 hrs only
also the phone always stays hot.
i have Videocon ZEUS ie a z51 clone not z71
anyone else using this phone and know other good roms?

antukecik said...

actually even phantom sky makes my phone hot and only can get battery less than 12 hour with wifi on

if i turn off data/wifi with gingerbread aosp kernel i can get maximum 45 hours of standby

it's not that much different from the last version of phantom..

antukecik said...

will try this rom later~
malaysian dev ftw

androiddylan said...

I have tried this ROM and I can say that it is good! It is timely that SuperOSR has also released its own 2.3.7 ROM.

AAllan said...

Tried this rom and works well with my Cherry Mobile Nova A100. Quadrant Score was 1192 with default kernel oc to 768MHz on demand. UI is fluid with fair battery life. Now i coupled it with kernel#20 and Pro Launcher as home launcher,now my phone is even better and it felt great!!!thanks Angelictears... ^_^

Unknown said...

@AAllan
My g-sensor's upside down when sideways - know How I can clear it?

androiddylan said...

@AAllan
maganda nga naman ang ROM na to pwede sa pwede
@Ronin
have you tried to flash ubuntu kernel 3 or 20?

dhmaste said...

@Ronin
flash cm7.1 stable and then this rom. Its the only way i solved this problem.

Bala said...

@Sanver
I am also facing the same problem.
All Gingerbread ROM's gives a poor battery backup. 80% loss in 8hrs standby.
May be its the problem with Videocon zeus???
Any help??

AMI said...

whr is phantom gone?
he is the best

AMI said...

i think till now Phantom Sky revolution rom is the best one in terms of memory use.

winzeny said...

Can i update from SuperOSR 2.0.1?

WaiXiew.Com said...

sorry guys, newbie here. can anyone give me steps by steps to install this rom ?? like using Sutv1.7, then how install this install that...

Bukan Rastaman said...

@waixew..you must flash original 2.1 with sut, and instal cwm...so u can instal this rom..cmiiw


can i used APPSD for this rom ? maybe i can partision my sd card with partion manager

:nb: sorry for my bad language

AAllan said...

@androiddylan:oo nga maganda nga tong rom na to.sana nga lang eh may Pinoy din na gumawa ng sarili nating ROM,he he he...ano kayang bagay na pangalan? ADOBO 2.3.8?he he he... ^_^

Balakumar said...

G sensor Not working in my XT502, so the Screen is not Turning.

androiddylan said...

@AAllan
dapat PANDICOCO 2.3.8 kasi yung mga android OS eh mga pangalan ng tinapay. Pwede rin kung may magdevelop eh ADOBONG BABOY 2.3.4, ADOBONG MANOK 2.3.5, at ADOBONG KANGKONG 2.3.7. Di naman kasi sikat ang linux sa pinas puro windows gamit ng mga pinoy ehh

all, english please

sansipp said...

i have tried this rom, but fastboot cannot work, n app2sd enable cannot work too, can somebody help me?

Unknown said...

before I try to rewind the phone, has anybody tried wireless tethering via bt pan? it doesn't seem to work right.

how do i rollback to cm7.1 properly? rooted eclair/froyo them cm7.1 zip?

androiddylan said...

@all
I apologize in writing in our native language but we can't help it! IT is flourishing in the PH and we are just hopeful that someone from our country will have the guts to develop our very own OS of course aside from what Cherry Mobile is giving us. Linux is not as popular as Windows.

androiddylan said...

@angelictears
I believe you can! This ROM has a lot room for improvements, I am not sure how intellectual rights will work in this world. I think it would be best to ask the ministry that handle intellectual property rights if this applies to that.

KAKA20979 said...

i've ever using gingerbread rom from AndroidPT team ver 1.1 and 1.1a also 1.1b before,good for overclocking, good for battery life, but not for wifi thetering and usb thetering, is this rom where having some any fixed than before ?

luis leal said...

amirazizi said...

After few hours screen orientation start to lag. Need to restart to make it's response fast again.

Really annoying when play games that used acceleration sensor. Not found this problem only in superOSR 2.0.1 and CM7.1 nbo.

Almost all others has this problem.

@sanveer kapur i am also using zeus ! n phantom evolution is the best rom for it!!

Unknown said...

@dhmaste
Does tethering work for you?
Builtin in tethering doesn't seem to work.
Using Wifi Tether (?) App doesn't seem to work either. Tips?

AAllan said...

@sansipp:go to cm setting then click application,then click "Allow application moving" after that click Install location then choose external.Now you can manually move all your user apps to sdcard. (BTW,you should have a partition in your sd card so you can use Link2sd apps.)HTH... ^_^

sansipp said...

@AAllan : TQ

terry said...

Anyone who trying this rom and got difficulty,juz changing kernel on it,it will adapt to any kernel so juz try one by one and find the one ur looking for

for those who thinks phantom was da best,yet it is,but,u got no guts to try any others than that.so juz stick on it and dont flash ur fone

for those who hav tethering prob,juz use 2.6.35.x kernel,but no guarentee it will work.

wifi problem will solve after changing to ubuntu#3 or eav#6 kernel or after rebooting several time.also apply on orientation and liquidity.

way of flashing is from cm7.1 or eav6 for stability as this rom base on cm7.1,for those from OSR u need to flash back to cm 2.3 using sutlr.

i hav done lots of flashing with almost all rom provided from this blog and others,bricking my fone 5 times and i never sick of it coz any problem occur will increase ur own knowledge.its for ur own good.

anyway,good luck too all newbie who try to flash ur fone...

KAKA20979 said...

i've tried this rom, this is still same like as before , my device cannot used as access point, THIS ROM IS STILL SUCKS !!!!!!!!1

Sanver Kapur said...

@bala i have tried different ROMs
if you want the gingerbread look then go for the latest lollipop here

http://www.androidpt.com/forum/index.php?option=com_kunena&func=view&catid=104&id=147692&Itemid=61

use google translate

the backpia roms(the latest one has sense UI) should also have nice battery life as they are also using the Apps_2.6.32.9 Kernel..

http://radithtux.blogspot.com/2011/04/android-bakpia-kacang-ijo-223-sense.html

i guess every ROM with Apps_2.6.32.9 kernel is good for the ZEUS

Anonymous said...

the ROM many error for A88, wifi not good, always is lag, error UI, fix them, plz, thanks

Enosh said...

as you guys using it, which kernel gets the best performance for this rom?

Ou+ said...

How to ADB with this rom

rex022 said...

I have a videocon zeus (commtiva z51) variant of the boston clones. I was using firetrap 2.21 rom earlier which gave me a battery life of 1 day. This one the battery just gets over in half a day. Kindly advice measures to take to increase battery life.

jeffrey said...

i think there is some sort of difference between commtiva z51 and z71... please check if the rom is compatible with it... if you guys having problem installing this rom... try this:

1st: install cyanogen mod stable 7.1.0 rom
wipe data cache and dalvik cache
2nd: flash this rom via recovery
3rd: wipe data and cache

that makes my phone running smooth... did not change the kernel though... but still in its best performance... Cherrymobile NOVA (commtiva z71 clone)

deepak verma said...

working fine on my spice mi300, i just installed it over mygingerb 1.0.3 without clenmaing anything.

deepak verma said...

i meant cleaning i.e. data etc.

patrick said...

solving wifi, install wi-fi lock from the market and you can keep your wifi on until you switch it off yourself. wifi become stable and fast with this simple app

jrvide said...

Very good mod. No problems with screen rotation or wifi.
Very fast and smooth.

ЄӘи said...

Will this one allow for larger free memory? I'm stuck with always having only about 42Mb of operating memory. It's badddd.
I noticed that the useless Google apps are eating up the memory; is there any lighter variants, perhaps modded ones? Thanks! :)

rex022 said...

This rom is stable and has a lot of features but please guide how to increase battery life. With gprs on i.e 2g for data the battery draines in 5 hrs flat. My earlier firestap froyo rom used to give atleast 24 hrs of good battery life.

terry said...

from my exp on flashing this rom with 40 different kernel......there is no such thing as battery lasts for only 4 or 5 hours, calibrate ur battery bro. And, try other kernel,eav,blade or aosp,that kernel undervolt really work, this rom is indeed fast stable and not ram consuming for anyone who knows HOW TO FLASH PROPERLY....

Shweitank said...

@ TERRY- it would be really helpful if u can please suggest the best kernel for this rom in terms of battery life & all working features..

terry said...

Its not that i dont wanna suggest,but i also frequently changing kernel,but mostly i use #2 ubuntu,but its not that stable,but wifi more stable than aosp or eav#6 but still no tether, still thinking on how to enable it. so far all kernel 2.6.32.x already undervolt and overclock, that why i said choose urself and see which one u compatible with,bout da rom,its already stable as i using it since 1.0.3, its up to kernel dev now, i also try 2.6.35.x kernel,but most of it still not stable and bit laggy,but it solve tether problem. if rotation,sensor or imei prob, that because of non properly flash, still trying to find kernel that support all da problem, i ve 2.6.32,2.6.35,2.6.28,blade or any kernel out there that support gb or froyo. but still wifi or tether will not stable.

terry said...

bout da battery, as i said before, almost all 2.6.32.x kernel already undervolt (uv) and overclock (oc) so please follow da callibration battery term carefully as callibration software can be obtain free on market. its not that i support this rom developer that much,but da rom he provide already stable and in term of ram and cpu usage is already da best coz this rom free ram as much as phantom rom. i m not angry for nothing as i hav been testing most rom for z71 or mi300 out there,eventhough phantom rom (its my hometown for my mi300) is indeed stable, but its still 2.2.x. superosr indeed stable and cool but,excessive ram usage is more battery consuming,cmmod build still buggy and too much update available, bakpia...personally i do not like bakpia (no offense) and firetrap also 2.2.x.

terry said...

so please, anyone who wants to flash their fone, read all the comments and manual given first, u can ask, but before asking, care to know better on how-to-flash first, either flashing rom or flashing kernel.i also like u guys at first, but i rarely ask other coz i try it on my fone first, find what wrong and obtain da how-to-resolve through reading all comments here. that why i brick my fone,almost 5 times (glad i hav backup of my stock rom so i can claim my warranty) as a price for my own knowledge.

terry said...

I m sorry if my word here 'injuring' someone. but i also learn from da scratch. i really glad for all rom cooker out there who sacrifice their time developing rom for u guys for FREE . so please, before insulting someone rom, please upgrade ur own knowledge first. Giving opinion/feedback and insulting are 2 different thing.

terry said...

One last thing, i got info on lowyat forum from malaysia that u can use sunglobal battery bl-6f for nokia for ur mi300 (dont know bout other clone) for more power as mi300 battery only provide 1230 mAh.

Shweitank said...

@terry..thanx a ton dude..bl-6f is for real..
m using eav4 with 2.6.35.13.
in short what are the exact steps for upgrading to this one..(m not a complete noob so u can tell me in short) download links welcome..:)

Gaurav said...

Is GPS performance affected by the kernel too? I have not been able to get a GPS lock on this ROM with any of the kernels I tried ( this one, EAv20, SuperAOSP 8.6). Can anybody advise?

Gaurav said...

Also, I checked and found BL-6F has 1200 mAh, against spice's 1230 mAh. Still worth it? It might be that Nokia's battery ratains charge for a longer period of time than Spice's, but I'm not sure of it.

Unknown said...

same with you on GPS.. it appear once then dissapear

AMI said...

main problems are low ram and no manual search for mobile connections?

Shweitank said...

@gaurav - bl-6f made by sunglobal has 1800 mAh..but i dont think it is available in india..

Gaurav said...

I've gotten GPS to work. Dowonload GPS aids Free from the Market and let it configure your chip. Then, verify your GPS lock with GPS Status and Toolbox (also free).

For the record, I used NDrive navigation earlier, and it still couldn't get a GPS lock, So I changed to Sygic Aura, and it works like a charm now. Sygic MobileMaps(MapMyIndia) fails to start with this ROM.

Oasis Internet said...

I got problem here, I using phone Mi-300 but after I install this ROM, My phone can't detect network (SIM CARD)

oktav said...

@terry : personaly u hate bakpia ? yeah i see , because u are malayshit who hate indonesian .. me too i hate my gb gaia but i'm not racism ..

Gaurav said...

@Oasis: These are the steps you need to follow while flashing ANY ROM.

For any Android version (1.5/1.6/2.1/2.2/2.3) start with a ROM that comes in an NB0.

If you want to flash a phantom 2.2, get it in an NB0, or flash an official 2.2 NB0 and then flash the zip.

For this mygingerbread, first flash a CM 7.1 NB0, and then flash this ZIP over it.

The original Spice ROM(2.1) is an NB0 file.

You'll find an Apanda 2.2 OFFICIAL ROM on this blog. Same for the CM 7.1 NB0. Search for them.

@oktav: don't be burning ticket booths now, you're being racist by mentioning "malayshit" already.

ЄӘи said...

MMS issue unresolved.
even to the extent of uninstalling default Mms.apk; it still doesn't send out or receive MMS.
Is there a fix for that, apparently it's a prevalent problem for android phones.

Joelxt5 said...

this is the fuckin best gingerbread rom i have flashed.....after superAOSP 8.6......and im not kiddin
-awesome network
-no hangs
-extremly fluid scrolling
-no probs with imei no.
used it for 12 hrs now....no probs yet...but ill suearly post if i find any!!

AMI said...

try to make it smooth like phantom ROM in which no leg in games detected like homerun3d, and manual support for network selection.

AMI said...

@FTW R u still working on it FTW. PLEASE MAKE IT BETTER LIKE PHANTOM ROM.

S.line said...

try aPT or EA latest rom's. have the best graphics 3d preformance.

Unknown said...

anyone knows what set should i use??

I tried CM7.1 nb0 then this rom, but it always is upside down when on landscape.

i need to upgrade my fone to a better rom, coz, i kinda am using a galaxy young phone and my boston gets left behind. :C

matt said...

thankss bro for the 1st time use it i had problem with usb tether but i solved it......so far no coverage 3g better then cyan mod v6 ..faster for surf internet so keep it up bro........malaysia bolehhh hehe.......

WaiXiew.Com said...

my phone comtiva z71 flash this and now no network signal, any solutions? it moves faster, everthing looks just fine

Anonymous said...

Great post. I agree with the points.

WaiXiew.Com said...

harlo... can anyone share a guideline to install this ROM. please!! my phone get no network after installing

Jony said...

Great ROM.
The Battery last for almost 48 hours with all on.
Only have problems connecting and maneging wifi networks, and it seems that the wireless range is inferior.

Unknown said...

Im still using this ROM as of now.
The Music Player has a great GUI and its easy to use and its not stuttering unlike CM7 Stock Player.

But i cant get the GPS afix to satellite quickly you need to wait for a while to get the right coordinates, and i found that it doesn't uses the Cell-site as AGPS assist, thats why it cant get the approx coordinates

about the Kernel, Still cant use the WIFI, still error when activating, and cant install the ADB drivers. Im using 2.6.32.9-EA_47, i think its AOSP kernel, correct me if im wrong..

One time, after reflashing it to CM7 EAv7.nb0 and reflash it from this rom, my wifi work for only a few minutes, after that, it wont work anymore. im still looking for a fix but cant find any from different websites. so kindly, if you have a fix on it, please post it.. thanks~

james said...

请问不是nb0 flie 要怎样才能 rom 机????

Spicysomtam said...

Good rom; best 2.3.x I have come across. Wifi is still not perfect, but best I have see. I mean activating the wifi can be troublesome.

My other phone is an Acer Liquid Metal. Acer releases the source code for their phones so you get some awesome builds. Its ARM7 thus supporting flash and its 800Mhz easily overclocked to 1Ghz. This Z71 phone is limited development wise as there is no source code for the kernel. Hence the wifi problems. Girlfriend is using it now; she is happy with it!
