Re: F900 Lite Rom

In this "lite" rom, I've removed ALL of the installation cabs that are included in the Acer F900 Cab zip file, the only thing that I left was the F900 EQ file, which i believe is needed based on some other reading that I've done.

So here's the list of things that were removed:

AcerShell
AcerShell Launcher
Album
BizCard
Backup/Restore
Call History Filter
Camera
Comm Manager
Voice Commander
Dialer
Google Maps
Google Search
GPRS Wizard
GSensor Settings
Memory Optimizer
Notification Manager
Quick Backlight
Quick Launch
Quick Menu
EasyKeyboard
SIM Manager
Sound Progiles
Speed dial
Streaming Player
Task Manager
Today softkey
ZoomStatus


When you've completed installing the "lite" rom, just copy the CAB files over to your SD card, and install the ones that you need. Here's a list of ones that I recommend, though, you can use the phone without any of them!

Backup/Restore - Super handy utility
Camera - Obviously, most people will need this
Comm Manager - Required
Dialer - You could live with or without this one.
GSensor Settings - Allows you to configure the G Sensor
Quick Backlight - Allows you to set backlight settings
Quick Menu - I like this, makes a friendly program launcher.
EasyKeyboard - Nicer than the crappy windows kb
Sound Profiles - Lets you config the ring profiles.
Speed dial - Handy util for speed dialing
Task Manager - I like the Acer task manager, but the MS one works well too...
Today softkey - Handy, I put the QuickMenu on the right softkey to launch apps..
ZoomStatus - Really handy, this is the app that zooms the status icons in the upper right hand side of the screen.

It only takes a few minutes to install those apps, and the nice thing is, that they're no longer sitting dormant in the program storage memory if you install them from the SD card!

I have gone ahead and checked all of the interfaces (WIFI, cell radios, GPS), and also verified that the camera and G Sensor still work just fine. I'm not expecting that anything should be fixed (or broken) by this ROM, since all I've done is remove most of the add-on software.
