Gaia 2.0.x RC Preview

With the next release is on the way, I will be renaming the ROM Gaia with a new version of 2.0.x, and the next release will be 2.0.1. 


There will be an overall changes to the ROM, with some of it are exciting and fresh for several users as said on the Lowyat forum thread. 


Changes are (for the RC preview) : 

  • Translucent status bar as default
  • New Splash image
  • Nexus ICS bootanimation
  • Based from Cyanogenmod 7.2 Source code
  • ICS animation backport
  • T9 dialer (thanks to cyanogenmod)
  • New performance script
  • Improved memory management out of the box
  • 2.6.35.x kernel
  • WiFi tethering working
  • USB tethering working
  • Improve "ondemand" CPU scheduler 
                                   




 Gaia 2 will promise the most refreshing feel to default Gingerbread look and feel, with minimal changes but still can give the most impact to user UI experience, so look forward for these changes in stable release of Gaia 2 this week with the following changes :



  • Transparent Gingerbread launcher hotseat
  • Better browser performance
  • Improved UI rendering
  • Better translucent statusbar support

The full release note will be publish here at the same time as the stable version is release. For now click on the link below for the RC preview of Gaia 2 :D

    1. Try reflash without wipe, or if all fails, flash this patch without wipe.

    1. This is a CM7.2 direct bug, I am currently trying to fix this bug, although the ROM should be pretty stable without any crash or sudden reboot. Hopefully I can fix it in time. :(

  9. hi angelictears. i would be happy to see if the stable rom GAIA 2.0.1 release soon.
    i know that it is a very hard work to cook a rom that stable enough.
    in this RC version, many said that it has no status bar but actually it will get fix if they did flash from previous GAIA rom. about the long booting, i have no idea about that but after several time reboot, time taken for booting become shorter than before.
    Thanks.

    waiting for this great stable rom to release
