[ROM] GingerDX port for Galaxy Y

From what I see, this is a ported Galaxy Ace ROM which is being further developed for the Galaxy Y by yash989 from xda-developers forums....

HELLO KITTY Themed Stock ROM (For the ladies)

So here is something unique I've come across this time. A stock DDLD5 based ROM themed with HELLO KITTY all over it. The developer <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4598454">lupin661</a> from xda-developers claims this is most suitable for girls. 
 
Basically this ROM doesn't have much special features and tweaks like the other custom ROMs, but this one is just themed a bit here and there to have a different look.

Not many people participated for some reason on that one, there were only 149 votes in total. 
 
This week's poll will be about which browser app you prefer to surf the net on your Galaxy Young. The browsers names which I'm going to list in the poll will only be ones that are compatible with the Galaxy Young and the only ones I'm aware of, you get a choice to vote Other if one's name is not listed.

[root] Making the Back and Menu buttons vibrate on Samsung Galaxy Y

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfBtGP2Lxqg3ayE7u73YPBZ22PUhpKZPBgYylFPuJ-E82q0BjqK89CX2Q1tP8yNtsTU4_4T4DKnR2tRVKNE4D2QsM2AYUesavqB0AhhbuUMnwR3POPKBmxjPtTnuNf9HbXItiNQimY_g4s/s1600/prototype-sgy1-vibrate-final.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfBtGP2Lxqg3ayE7u73YPBZ22PUhpKZPBgYylFPuJ-E82q0BjqK89CX2Q1tP8yNtsTU4_4T4DKnR2tRVKNE4D2QsM2AYUesavqB0AhhbuUMnwR3POPKBmxjPtTnuNf9HbXItiNQimY_g4s/s320/prototype-sgy1-vibrate-final.png" width="318" /></a></div>
 
In this post I am going to show you how to make the menu and back buttons of your Samsung Galaxy Young vibrate upon touch. 
Why do I need this, you ask? Everyone has a different taste for stuff and it may have come to some people's mind to want to have them vibrate upon touch. 
There is no setting for this in any options menu, so we will have to do this manually by using a root browsing tool and modifying 4 lines of text on a file located deep in your system folders. 
 
Requirements: 
<ul>
<li>A rooted phone - <a href="http://www.galaxyyarchive.info/2012/03/tutorial-rooting-your-samsung-galaxy.html">How to root it? Click here.</a></li>
<li>A root browsing tool - e.g. <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer">Root Explorer</a> </li>
</ul>
So in this guide I will be using Root Explorer as a demonstration for all the steps, if you have no knowledge in browsing and modifying your system files then I would advise you to get Root Explorer and follow my instructions carefully to not ruin anything. 
 
Step 1 - Finding the file for editing: 
Now we are going to start up our root browsing app and go to the directory: 
/system/usr/keylayout/ 
 
In there, we should see a file qwerty.kl: 
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFBiLP3Q6BnV0cjlQsaMNLlNyycEv7QeykbS_LwdqoNhYk_yIuRxd9HlObCUN8RyZdUuHxDcNbGLpJ1iRoZuJTyivRfIDuy2PFeeG8DBadviEwqNG7-9Aa3OrAaUziqRFDqPmo4M0EG9Uh/s1600/SC20130226-124741.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFBiLP3Q6BnV0cjlQsaMNLlNyycEv7QeykbS_LwdqoNhYk_yIuRxd9HlObCUN8RyZdUuHxDcNbGLpJ1iRoZuJTyivRfIDuy2PFeeG8DBadviEwqNG7-9Aa3OrAaUziqRFDqPmo4M0EG9Uh/s1600/SC20130226-124741.png" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">1. Be sure to mount R/W 
2. The file we are going to edit</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
 
Step 2 - Modifying the file: 
Before everything, tap on the Mount R/W button at the top right corner so that we will be able to edit the files. 
Now long press on the qwerty.kl file, you should get a popup with many options, so scroll down until you see the option "Open in Text Editor". 
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzhA-8Ejc7XghWnJI7GATtTlMedM3KswKfTV4YSQh-TgPbqIxgtT3am0RscRBNgh3cpIALrwdg7Sf8Wf9nafpP9Oa0Aaq2BeRh3f7YkZQ-bsZUmrwJWTvIY5BQ6E5QTCUHR69vxVfIziPO/s1600/SC20130226-124754.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzhA-8Ejc7XghWnJI7GATtTlMedM3KswKfTV4YSQh-TgPbqIxgtT3am0RscRBNgh3cpIALrwdg7Sf8Wf9nafpP9Oa0Aaq2BeRh3f7YkZQ-bsZUmrwJWTvIY5BQ6E5QTCUHR69vxVfIziPO/s1600/SC20130226-124754.png" /></a></div>
 
You should then see the following contents: 
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhruhnI1CQMCxIfiMBfknQchhcCnUtT3b5P3ZCWob_holK3JBjPJ0h2Lho470rN8nmoawpkonWaFRi3ciimepugLDPixH4mSe4EySOZolFFesCjsPRP6qIpWQUB5PZyEXrKNBhokI7zFlnQ/s1600/SC20130226-124920.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhruhnI1CQMCxIfiMBfknQchhcCnUtT3b5P3ZCWob_holK3JBjPJ0h2Lho470rN8nmoawpkonWaFRi3ciimepugLDPixH4mSe4EySOZolFFesCjsPRP6qIpWQUB5PZyEXrKNBhokI7zFlnQ/s1600/SC20130226-124920.png" /></a></div>
 
Now we need to modify 4 lines of text which are the following: 
<ul>
<li>KEY 158 BACK WAKE_DROPPED</li>
<li>KEY 229 MENU WAKE_DROPPED</li>
<li>KEY 139 MENU WAKE_DROPPED</li>
<li>KEY 59 MENU WAKE_DROPPED</li>
</ul>
Find these 4 lines of text and at the end where you see WAKE_DROPPED, change that to VIRTUAL. 
 
Final result: 
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_6cbq3IH7_1y0QuZzam3FCglVk5k0AixE80CNXEfxpkoAxwfwKFiKMraOPt9W5MLxDC481D53J9_Ihl1GkzVSkPF3Iq7cy4hNpYUydJFG6Q3k-e9P1ykIpzZsJyFzUm8PyffzR06EaQeh/s1600/SC20130226-125405.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_6cbq3IH7_1y0QuZzam3FCglVk5k0AixE80CNXEfxpkoAxwfwKFiKMraOPt9W5MLxDC481D53J9_Ihl1GkzVSkPF3Iq7cy4hNpYUydJFG6Q3k-e9P1ykIpzZsJyFzUm8PyffzR06EaQeh/s1600/SC20130226-125405.png" /></a></div>
 
Now press the menu button to get options to popup from the bottom and choose Save Changes. 
 
And that's it, you are done. Now you just need to reboot your phone and enjoy the changes once it's back on. 
To revert back, simply change the button names showed above back to WAKE_DROPPED.

[TOOL] Kernel Flasher from Recovery Mode v2.0

Presenting you the Kernel Flasher tool by <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4316512" target="_blank">faqbly</a> from xda developers. This tool helps you flash kernels in a simple way without increasing your custom bin count. 
The procedure is pretty simple, you choose a kernel which you want to use, you put the boot.img file in the root directory of your SD card, flash the tool which is a zip file in CWM recovery and you're done. 
Along with that it creates a backup of your previous kernel image file which should be named OLDboot.img and it should be located on the root directory of your SD card. 
 
In most cases now kernel developers make flashable zip files of their kernels, if you happen to encounter only a boot.img file of the kernel released, you may use this tool to flash it quickly. 
 
If for some reason you want to flash a kernel using this tool which's boot.img file is located in a zip file, simply extract it using an archive program such as WinRAR or 7zip. 
 
Download: <a href="https://www.cubby.com/p/_e4abc53c9f7e44a892a2e3b9b0dca646/Boot.img_flasher_V2.0_faqbly_2.zip" target="_blank">Click here.</a>  
 
WARNING: 
This tool could brick your phone. Neither the developer nor GalaxyYArchive will be responsible for the consequences caused by using this tool. 
Do this at your own risk! 
 
Instructions: 
<ol>
<li>Download the tool and put it on your SD card</li>
<li>Download CWM recovery if you don't have it and also put it on your SD card</li>
<li>Download your desired kernel's boot.img file to root directory on your SD card (aka not in any folder) </li>
<li>Boot into recovery mode, then flash the CWM recovery</li>
<li>Once in CWM recovery just incase, make sure to go to mounts and storage and mount everything you can, mount /system should be your #1 priority </li>
<li>Go back, flash the tool zip file and reboot</li>
<li>Enjoy the kernel</li>
</ol>
Stuck on Samsung Logo? Recovery does not work aswell? 
Either flash only a stock kernel using Odin or just directly flash a stock rom using Odin to go back to normal.

Mozilla Firefox Nightly for Samsung Galaxy Young & all other ARMv6 devices

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/76/Mozilla_Nightly_icon_2011.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/76/Mozilla_Nightly_icon_2011.png" width="200" /></a></div>
This is an official version for ARMv6 devices which is what our Galaxy Young's processor architecture is. That means we are able to run the Mozilla Firefox Nightly build on the SGY without any problems unless the build itself has bugs and other issues which could lead to crashes. This is not a broken port but an official ARMv6 version released by the Mozilla developers. 
 
I've taken some time to try this out on the Galaxy Y and it's not that bad. What is cool about this is that you can download and install Addons to it, save whole websites as PDF files as well as installing Apps. 
I could not test the webpage loading speed though because I'm using a mobile data plan for an internet connection which is bad compared to a wireless network. If you are going to try this then please, leave a comment on how the web page loading performance is like on a faster internet connection.

Here is a flashable zip file with tons of tweaks and other script merged into one. This was done by <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4791739">kaustubh.rockstar</a> from xda-developers forums and released for our Galaxy Young. He claims that it should work on all GB ROMs, ICS ROMs, and JB ROMs with init.d support ofcourse.
