I've no experience of development but the comments about Google apps specifically failing to work makes me wonder if they have been deliberately borked. With the Great Firewall of China still firmly in place, is it also reasonable to think that the authorities there might force ZTE to cripple certain aspects of the ROM to ensure Chinese users definitely can't access some of the Google stuff which might make them become corrupted by our Western decadence? :P

Edit: Yep, what droidhed said ^^

OK guys,

I've removed my copy of the ROM, since Im sick of getting messages about how the phone part does not work, and how its not as fast as someone else's build. I only publicly announced it because of the 'excitement' from this thread, but clearly that was a mistake.

I'm sure Paul or one of the other guys will be along soon with a release that works.

Should we be able to get a dump of a retail device (or Orange put out a 2.2) I might revisit this.

Doh, I was going to download this morning for a play, without complaining that bits don't work!

Paul is used getting bashed at. :P

I've been out this evening, for a very nice late night surf/swim, and come back to 2 (or 3) guys who'd between them left me over 50 messages about the fact 'my ROM' is not as fast as another ROM they don't have and how the Phone part does not work. One of them was demanding to know when I was going to fix it as it was 'damaging his eBay business' he' had already sold handsets with the promise of 2.2.

Ouch, the sf does seem to have attracted a new breed of n00bs! Just ignore/block them if you can.

Really, I think a little bit of publicity for the individuals concerned might be the way to minimise this idiocy!

However, looking on the bright side, you now know why its a good idea NOT to put contact deta in any roms you release.

That said, might it be a good idea to put something in there to discourage commercial use?

Subject for another thread perhaps.

In general, I think it would be perfectly acceptable to have heavy-duty moderation to "keep spectators off the pitch during the game".
