Hello everyone, months ago I had a post with instructions on how to make it so that your stock ROM can use custom bootanimations which was done by downloading 2 files and moving them to your system directories.
deathnotice01 from xda-developers has made a flashable zip to make the procedure even faster without doing anything but just booting to recovery and selecting the zip.
Let's begin. So first of all you would need the zip file. Click here to download.
To flash the zip file, you would need Clockworkmod Recovery. - Click here to download.
Follow these instructions:
- Turn off the phone
- Flash the CWM.zip file - If you don't know how, watch this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1X_NdlSoA8
- After you are there, select "apply update from sd card"
- Choose the "STOCKBOOTENABLER-deathnotice01.zip" file
- Choose Yes
- Reboot.
- Enjoy using custom boot animations.
An example of a custom boot animation can be found here.
While digging today in the Galaxy Ace boards at xda-developers, I have stumbled upon this modified version of Holo Launcher.
Basically it has a few PNGs replaced to make it look more like the Galaxy S3 's launcher and the person did a pretty good job.
This laucnher was modded by CoolCatGetHome from xda-developers.

This is a tweak that can be done for 1 minute. My sources tell me that it is from v6 supercharger script.
So, this tweak is all just 1 line of code which you need to add to your build.prop file.
From what I know what it does, it seems to kill most useless running on the background apps, and frees up RAM more than before when you didn't have the tweak. Basically this kills more apps than it's supposed to. Say if you have an IM app running minimized, it will kill that aswell whereas before you had this, it wouldn't.
Let's say, whenever I cleared my RAM it would go down to ~134MB. Now, thanks to this it goes down to 101 (that's the lowest only for me, some people even have 80MB) then slowly increases to ~134MB max and stays there for quite a long time.
So, the following line you need to add to your build.prop file (I suggest you add it on the bottom line for quicker removal if you need to in the future):
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1
For detailed instructions if you are a newbie watch the video:
This is completely safe! You do not need to flash any specific files.
Yes everyone I am happy to announce that I have found somewhat a solution to the problem with constantly losing signal.
What was the problem?
Many times the phone's signal simply goes off, what really annoys me is the constant packet data loss, sometimes I have to reboot the phone to get my mobile networks back on. Changed kernels several times same with ROMs but that doesn't seem to be a solution. Kind of reminds me of an iPhone video I've seen long ago about how it loses signal once you put your finger on the corner.
After searching around like crazy I never came to a solution until I've decided to tweak things on my own.
Video instructions:
Please beware that if you are going to choose 2G as suggested at the end of the video, you may experience a slower internet connection but I believe it's for the best. It's only bad for the people who use their mobile data plan anyways, this does not affect the Wi-Fi speed.
Also please leave a comment if this has worked perfectly for you as it did for me.

The Author Application page has been restored, I haven't noticed it until a viewer e-mailed me about the problem. Turns out it renamed itself after I did some tweaks to the pages so the link is now restored back fully working.

----------------------------------WARNING-TRY ON YOUR OWN RISK. IT WORKS ON MY PHONE, BUT SOME VISITORS COMMENTED THAT THEIR PHONE WENT ON A BOOTLOOP. MAYBE IT IS BECAUSE WE HAVE A DIFFERENT VERSION OF ANDROID OR ANOTHER KERNEL INSTALLED. ANYWAY, IF YOUR PHONE GOES ON A BOOTLOOP, YOU CAN OPEN YOUR PHONE ON SAFE MODE BY HOLDING THE MENU KEY WHILE THE SAMSUNG LOGO FLASHES ON THE SCREEN WHILE BOOTING. I HAVEN'T TRIED THAT HOWEVER BECAUSE I HAVEN'T EXPERIENCED ANY PROBLEMS YET.---------------------------------------

I have themed many things, like buttons, check boxes, status bar, popups, volume bar, download bar, progress bar, lock screen........ It took me a month to do this, because I didn't know in the beginning how to do some things and I had to do lots of exercises for school. Anyway, here it is, the Assassin ICS Theme!!!
With this theme, the post about ICS themed apps for Gingerbread by me suits a lot. If you install these apps, your phone will look better than ever for sure!!!!!!!!!!!
