Just curious. Will you guys switch to ICS once it becomes 'stable' (enough)?

Ok great rom , devs, a few things i noticed, that hasnt been addressed , it would be the ripper red theme, when installed, you can not use the touch keyboard, it wnt show up , however i downloaded the ics keyboard from the market and that work, if anyone wants a ez fix for that, secondly what are the memory tweaks, it has no description of what does what, there is blur , basic and delux im real curious to know what they do. as for anything else, it works fine. thank you again for the great rom!

Been running this rom for over a week now. Runs great, great battery life and I got the ICS Theme for a bit of a stock/simple look. Also, a huge PLUS for me is the power button-screenshot. Very handy when making online payments cuz I Screenshot confirmation #'s.

Vbh knows about the kb and is working on it. The memory tweaks adjust the parameters by which the OS auto kills background apps. The more aggressive it is, the quicker it will shut down apps you have running in the background. The stock ones are the most aggressive, mav deluxe is next in line and mavbasic is the least aggressive and best for multitasking.

This has been fixed. Clear downloads in the Toolbox and reinstall RipperRed through the Theme Manager. You should be good to go! :biggrin:

I would wipe. I altered the fw so you may run into issues if you dont.
