    HR mGinger Release 1

    As promised, the first release of HR mGinger Android ROM. This will for now be the final version as I want to take a look at running Android from different files systems.

    How to install:
    - Boot your M8 into Upgrade Mode and plug in the USB-cable
    - Copy the folder 'LBE_Android' and the 2 files 'xip.bin' and 'Enable Keyboard.apk' to the Disk of your device
    - After copying is done, disconnect the USB-cable and pres 'Upgrade'
    - Boot into Mymobile first
    - You can now boot into Android
    - Install 'Enable Keyboard.apk' using ES FileManager

    Features:
    - 0.9.9.95 800MHz dual-boot
    - Gingerbread UI
    - Partly MIUI based
    - Very cool boot animation
    - Hosts file replaced (some apps show no more ads so they run a bit faster)
    - The keyboard is the free version of SwiftKey
    - Control volume by pressing the M button and the volume keys at the same time

    Bugs:
    - No ROOT access (has not really a point on a Squash file system)
    - Can't integrate keyboard

    Download:
    Multiupload.com - upload your files to multiple file hosting sites!

    Shortly, is the installation process similar to A13.5 firmware? I don't get the part about booting M8 into Upgrade Mode and copying data the same time

    Yes it's the same. Just make sure you boot into Mymobile first. Otherwise you will get Android corrupted error.

    No, I wasn't able to integrate. You can use AppsLib or other 3rd party market.

    Install 'Enable Keyboard.apk' using ES FileManager, click on the 'SwiftKey' icon in the apps menu and follow the setup wizard.

    I'm working on a faster M9UI ROM with ext2 msys.img, integrated keyboard and fast image gallery.

    I'm also trying to make a stock 2.2 with ext3, ext4 or YAFFS2 file system.

    No, 2.2 or higher are the faster Android versions.

    Are you sure that 2.2 is faster than 2.1?
    I mean, sure for good ported roms its true.
    But I think the Kernel 2.6.29 was made for 1.6?! Correct me if i am wrong.
    So, we need at first the port of 2.6.36 until 2.2 and higher is faster than the 1.6 version, right?
