Going to try a new ROM for my phone, seeing that the previous ROM, CM7 Nightly was very hungry on sucking battery juice. Hopefully this lightweight Insanity ROM is as smooth, if not smoother than CM7 Nightly. It claims that the ROM size is only 70MB in size.
Unfortunately, I have yet to find the download link of the ROM.

Insanity v8.5 was a failure. It can't be flashed directly over my existing CM7 Nightly. So I tried reverting back to EZbase 2.0 (FroYo 2.2.1). After updating Insanity via CWM, my phone stuck at Galaxy S boot screen (before animation). Checked the forum for some advice, it needed to be flashed from Gingerbread JVH kernel.
Blew me. Flashed Samsung's leaked ROM XXJVK over my phone again, then hunt for JVH kernel. The best bet was Supercurio's Voodoo kernel, which uses JVH kernel. Unfortunately, I can't use Hardcore's Speedmod kernel, as it requires JVH kernel, instead of providing JVH kernel. Voodoo kernel did an automatic conversion for me from RFS to EXT4, which I was shocked cause the booting the phone takes very long. Thanks to the audible EXT4 conversion, so I know what I'm waiting for.
Finally booted into Insanity, but the DPI was shit. There were some FC with existing apps, especially Nitrality. It was really a stupid ROM. Even I can't connects to my own Wifi AP. Urgh!
Downloading Sweet Honey v3.5 Evolution now. Hope this is a good ROM with good battery life.
