*******UPDATE******** 06/06/2011 h.23.07
I have posted new 1.5 version and an alternative theme. This version it's the better from the 1.2. Waiting for more news
*******UPDATE******** 03/06/2011 h.01.45
Angelom relased a new version of the rom, BUT many users, flashing this from an 1.2 or 1.3 version, gets a bootloop. At the moment i prefer remain with 1.2. Waiting for more info
*******UPDATE******** 02/06/2011 h.0.26
more later in the day, angelom promised a new version (1.4). actually the most updated version is the 1.3 that doesn't contain any great features, and i have choice don't post here because too much confusional.

A great way to make a long life battery, because if you doesn't remove touchwiz will be always in background eating battery and resources.

The only modification that i've done in these rom are removing all related samsung stuff from directory /system/app.
I've removed all touchwiz application and laucher too.

this rom include Launcher Pro that it's fantastic like stock gingerbread launcher

---

Looks very nice. Here's the original post (in Italian):
http://www.androidiani.com/forum/modding-samsung-galaxy-s2/48449-rom-ginger-deo-2-3-3-deodexed.html
Would you have to wipe before installing? Seems interesting
EDIT: OK it says you only need to wipe the cache. (Google Translate): "Wipe only cache required (you do not lose anything)"

---

any screenshot would be appreciated. thx is this rom better than the villionrom?

---

OK. Please post few impressions about battery improvements. It is all that I am interesting.

---

Yes, only wipe cache. I will put on some screenshoots later. Removing stock samsung battery life seems no more have "android processes" running out all battery

Thanks!

why does this have such high quadrant scores? says 4163... without overclock

Thanks,
SamsungDive function you can setup in setting menu "Location and security" option "external functions" (translating from dutch menu). Probably the setting will still be there, but the moment you track your phone from Samsung's Dive web page some processes are started on phone.

Wipe cache?
