    I have had to flash back yo 0.6.9 to get SPB Shell 3D working.
    Have you got it working on a newer version of Insanity?
    If you have, how did you get it to work?

    No, I never got it working, must be something got to do with the ROM(JVE)

    What do you think of it?

    it's pure class! Flashed back to 0.6.9 so I could use it. So still on 0.6.9 with Damian kernel.

    It`s frustrating enough to flash a new ROM, the last thing I want to do is go back a ROM, I`ll stay with 7.2, my tolerance for flashing has gone down, :(

    Major +1 here. Bad experience with CM7 so not going up to GB again unless it's stable.

    No official date yet, but a lot of people that are on the beta are happy with what`s there so far.
    Me, I`m waiting til either he gives a release date or Samsung re-release Gingerbread, depending on which I read is better, I`m in no rush.

    On RC4 now. Quite nice, but still missing a few things and a little buggy. Disappointed Darky is taking a leave of absence. He wasnt doing too badly from all the donations as far as I could see.

    sh!t is getting a little crazy in the darky camp. They are now putting out betas of the RC5. I've just flashed b3. Minor bug fixes really. I really want a proper customisable rom that is very very stable. Basically Cyanogen, but working.

    Lads for the moment, I don`t think anyone should flash anything Darky related, at least until he comes back, you`ll probably have a few lads trying to fill his shoes.

    Check out Insanity lads, I know I go on about it but its slim and smooth, stable as well. Plus the DPI settings are nice, I just can`t get used to them, but I`ll try this time around.
    CM7 I was interested in it for a while but it still seemed to have a few bugs, same with MIUI, but they are both being improved.

    For anyone interested, v10_RC5_final is now available.

    Flashed from RC5b1 using CWM in Recovery very easily, no wipe necessary and no problems at all doing it. You can also use the Darky app if you prefer to do it that way. Although this version says final it is still a release candidate version - no word yet on when the full version will become available.

    I got 3 days on 10.5. Relatively bugless from Darkys point of view. There are a few which I believe are in 2.3.3 jvb anyway. Hoping that we'll get some of the bug fixes etc from 2.3.4 when it gets hacked.

    Had only moved over to Insanity 8.1 last week. But to be honest there were too many force closes from different apps. I had installed all the necessary "fixes" for them but still really annoying.

    So last night I decided to go back to darkys, installed the most recent RC.

    So far it is excellent. Took less than 15 min to flash the rom.

    Only thing I do miss from insanity is the keyboard was updated in that it had a few extra things. Like hold down one button to get smileys. Im using swype by the way. Plus when I flashed Darkys, I actually didn't get a gingerbread keyboard. But I prefer swype anyway.

    Can't really comment on the battery yet as I have been using the phone alot.

    What kind of FC`s?

    I have to say 8.2 is running smoothly for an RC, :)

    Just opening a couple of site and it randomly FCing. Then in the market it just FCed when I tried to install a couple of apps. Also when I was the barcode scanner to scan in apps.

    I was really liking it to be honest, but just the FCs wrecked my head. Might try it again in the near future.

    It took a few hours after flashing for any FC`s on my yolk to iron out, so far everything is cool, I just want to flash BAT I neve rliked the Insanity theme/look.

    I`d say 8.2 will be very good, should`nt be to long.

    I think you guys should start an insanity thread. The reasons are two fold, 1) to stop confusing n00bs, 2) this thread is for Darkys.

    Been a few days and so far so good. Haven't noticed any bugs and battery life is excellent, way better than say Darkys 9.5 though don't know if there is any noticeable improvement over earlier rc 10 versions. Its a decent stop gap as squeeonline says until a 2.3.4 version appears.

    TW4 modded for Darkys 10rc5

    Take heed, works for me but make a full back up as you have to mod files.

    Because Darkys is half on hold at the moment.

    If someone is looking for info on insanity, they shouldnt have to look in the darkys thread. Unless the title is changed to "custom SGS roms"

    Installed this the other day having previously just been running stock 2.2 with OCLF, running grand with no issues. Battery life is very good, and can't say I've noticed any bugs. No FC's on any applications yet either.
