CM7 port [Alpha 4] by PsychoGame for Galaxy Y (Bluetooth working!)

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Greetings, fellow Cyanogenmod fans! It's been a while since the last post regarding CyanogenMod7 has been posted here. In this post I am going to introduce you to <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4647521">PsychoGame</a>'s port of CyanogenMod7 for the Samsung Galaxy Young. 
From the looks of his xda thread, he sure knows what he is doing and his progress is actually going well. This release has Bluetooth partially working from what I read on his thread, I couldn't get the chance to test it personally though. If you want to, you can also read <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40799606#post40799606" target="_blank">this xda post</a> on how to be able to share files, I believe that actually fixes the whole Bluetooth issue but like I said, haven't tested anything personally. 
 
As for the performance, bugs and such on this rom, the only problem I could see was the screen flickering from time to time. Games such as Angry Birds and Pou managed to be playable without any force-closes (Pou used to force close on Madteam's CM7). 
 
So below I am going to list the working/not working features of the release I am about to share with you (Alpha 4): 
 
Working: 
<ul>
<li>Audio</li>
<li>Bluetooth (Partially: Not usable yet, but the device is able to scan for other devices and is also found by other bluetooth devices) - UPDATE: Please refer to <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40799606#post40799606" target="_blank">this xda post</a> to be able to share files!!</li>
<li>Camera (Partially: Can take pictures but unable to record film material For more info look at: "known bugs")</li>
<li>Display "Hardware Accelerated" (Also with some small bugs and glitches, look at "Known bugs")</li>
<li>GPS</li>
<li>Input</li>
<li>Lights</li>
<li>Network interfaces (Mobile internet)</li>
<li>Power management</li>
<li>Radio (Phone "Incoming and Outgoing calls")</li>
<li>Sensors</li>
<li>Storage</li>
<li>Vibrator</li>
<li>Wifi</li>
</ul>
Not working: 
<ul>
<li>Media, media_profiles.xml is included, but the OMX interface still needs to be properly ported which is a WIP</li>
</ul>
Known bugs:  
Unfortunately the popular random screen flickering bug is still here, aswell as the camera showing a white screen even though it is able to take pictures, you can't preview them from the camera app. 
 
Downloads: 
Download CM7 Alpha 4: <a href="http://goo.im/devs/PsychoGame/cyanogenmod4.zip" target="_blank">Click here.</a> 
Download PsychoGame's kernel (You need this to boot CM): <a href="http://goo.im/devs/PsychoGame/boot1.tar" target="_blank">Click here.</a> 
Download Gapps (Play Store, GTalk, etc.): <a href="http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip" target="_blank">Click here.</a>  
 
So first of all, I would recommend that you safely download the CM7 zip file to your sdcard and then flash the kernel, because it is possible that after flashing the kernel, you will be stuck on yor GALAXY Y logo and won't be able to boot int your ROM to later paste it there. 
 
Installing the kernel: 
Step 1: 
Download Odin 1.85: <a href="http://androidfirmwares.net/Tools/Download/1" target="_blank">Click here.</a> 
Download the boot1.tar (PsychoGame's kernel) file to your computer. 
 
Step 2: 
Boot your Galaxy Y into Download mode by holding the Volume down + Home + Power/Lock button. 
Once you are there, press Volume up until you go to the screen where it says something like "Downloading" 
In the mean time, connect your Galaxy Y with your USB cable and start the Odin program. 
 
Step 3: 
Now it's time to setup Odin. Once you start it up, you should see in the ID:COM boxes a yellow box indicating that your phone is connected to a port. Please refer to the screenshot below: 
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHfhROBIr939RiGZk-dm2bSiQdvKwR_c9Poe3fm7joLGSbfcZOv727O3YxWvrxXlkzYWBbWdCo3MDuq-O7LJ_DPnkSobOiHsFdFPGpoVMOPFtelWpDneKvMBTlt-LTACXpdgcz0AxHaM2b/s1600/kernel.png" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="228" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHfhROBIr939RiGZk-dm2bSiQdvKwR_c9Poe3fm7joLGSbfcZOv727O3YxWvrxXlkzYWBbWdCo3MDuq-O7LJ_DPnkSobOiHsFdFPGpoVMOPFtelWpDneKvMBTlt-LTACXpdgcz0AxHaM2b/s320/kernel.png" width="320" /></a></div>
Click on the PDA button and locate the boot1.tar file which you downloaded to your computer. Select it, and press Start in the Odin program. Wait for it to flash the kernel to your phone and in the end, the first box should become in green color saying PASS! or something of the sort. 
 
You have now succesfully installed the kernel and may unplug your phone. 
Now take off your battery, insert it back in and from here, follow the ROM installation guide below, I have made a video for it. 
 
Installing the ROM: 
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="266" mozallowfullscreen="mozallowfullscreen" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/vkCNjM3QuqE?feature=player_embedded" webkitallowfullscreen="webkitallowfullscreen" width="320"></iframe></div>
 
 
 
And there you have it. This release is absolutely stunning, well working and might just be good enough for daily use.

Minimalist S3 Launcher for Galaxy Y

Minimalist S3 Launcher is being developed by <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4733329">xXx~~~SHLOK~~~xXx</a> from xda-developers forums. Now I haven't really took the time to completely explore it and compare it to <a href="http://www.galaxyyarchive.info/2013/04/galaxy-s3-launcher-v35-update-for.html" target="_blank">SaM-RoN</a>'s due to the huge amount of work the <a href="http://www.galaxyyarchive.info/2013/04/weekly-poll-4-would-you-like-to-see-gya.html" target="_blank">GYA ROM</a> requires. I found this launcher to be very good because it really is very smooth as described on the xda thread.

UPDATE: 
The poll got reset again, it is pointless to re-add. It's been decided, a GYA ROM will be coming soon.

<s>
Many people ask me what kind of ROM I am using, it's a stock customized to my desires. I prefer the stock Samsung TouchWiz look than any other themes including JellyBean. Currently I am still a junior in development and I am slowly beginning to understand things. I plan on keeping the Samsung TouchWiz look in pretty much any app I could try, but the look of a more expensive Galaxy Phone. I've always wanted to see the look of a Samsung Galaxy S Advance for example on my Samsung Galaxy Y. And of course, a lot of neat tweaks and much much more goodies behind all of that. 
I'm pretty sure everyone wants to have his cheap phone to look like an expensive one. 
 
There are 2 simple choices: 
<ul>
<li>Yes</li>
<li>No</li>
</ul>
I'll be grateful if you leave your vote, thanks. 
 
UPDATE: 
Something went wrong with the poll, it got reset for an unknown reason. 
It has been re-added now.</s>

<a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4843361">SaM-RoN</a> from xda-developers forums has surprised us once again with another app exported off a Chinese device, and slightly modified by him to fit the phone. 
 
This app contains 11 different lockscreens for your Galaxy Y. So you do not need to flash a custom ROM, modify any system files and thing such as that. 
 
There is one small problem though. When you choose a custom lockscreen on this app and lock your phone, you may notice that first you go through your default system lockscreen and then you see the custom lockscreen. 
Now this problem can be solved very easy, stock users can download and install the free app called <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.jraf.android.nolock" target="_blank">No Lock</a> from the Google Play store. Everything you need to know on how to setup the custom lockscreen and get rid of the default lockscreen is explained in the video you will see below. 
 
Download Multi-Locker: <a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?zy1oq60z7wnb7y4" target="_blank">Click here.</a> 
 
Instructions: 
<ol>
<li>Download the zip to your sdcard</li>
<li>Boot into Recovery mode</li>
<li>Flash CWM Recovery</li>
<li>Go to mounts and storage, be sure /system is mounted, mount it if it's not</li>
<li>Go back, choose to install zip from sdcard, choose zip from sdcard</li>
<li>Choose yes</li>
<li>Reboot</li>
</ol>
