*Jekyll v1.7.1*
CyanogenMod 9 Kexec
(updated 9/7/12-See Changelog Post #2)
Jekyll is an ICS CM9 Rom I built from source. It is a work in progress and one of the first Kexec CM9 roms out. Be patient with her. This rom has tons of tweaks and mods that I did to make it my own. I still consider it a beta, but it is daily drivable. You are encouraged to submit bugs, complains, comments or complements in this thread or through PM.
This is a Droidrzr.com EXCLUSIVE. While I encourage you to share this rom, please only post links back to this thread and not directly to my files.
Myself, Droidrzr.com, Cyanogenmod, dhacker, hashcode, and everyone else are not responsible for your phone or what you do with it. Your device, your choices. I made this rom FOR ME and decided to share it with you all. Enjoy
Jekyll is only for those on ICS (.211/.215 or leaks).
You MUST have Safestrap 2.11 installed. It must be installed on your NON-SAFE side first (if you haven't done this already)
Safestrap 2.11 is the only official install method. Because this is a KEXEC build with a different kernel you will 100% brick if you flash with any other recovery.
Features of Jekyll

0 Bloat-built from AOSP 100%

What Doesn't Work:

Camera (So far, this is priority number 1 for repair)
Kexec is new to a lot of us. I've been using this rom for a few days now and I have noticed a few nuances that weren't always the case with non-kexec builds. Most obvious ones, data is slow to connect on boot/reboot and I have noticed there are times coming from the SS splash screen when it's switching over kernels that it can hang and require a 3 finger salute shut down. (power, vol+,vol-) This doesn't happen every time though.
Still to Come:
Overclocking, governors, modules etc
Kernel Tweaks

Reboot
PATIENCE IS KEY WITH KEXEC
Once you reboot BE PATIENT: Kexec builds take longer to start up because you phone has to switch over to the other kernel.
During Boot Animation: The first boot up takes some time, it's only the first one, subsequent boots are much faster
Once you boot up BE PATIENT: It appears that kexec roms take a little longer to latch onto data the first time (upon reboot also). It will pick it up, just give it a minute to settle, I promise it will.
