Guest shingers5 Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 (edited) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.p...p;postcount=172 this rom is currently taking xda by storm. completely new take on a vanilla experience with an IOS feel. this is just a heads up to offer people something fresh and new. link above is to the english mod of this rom. in Desire forum the main thread can be found for different version. this is new and intuitive and the chinese guys behind this are really gifted. its based on cyan 6.0 so stability is assured. i also recommend the Desire HD port as that gives all the goodness of new sense UI on our Desire. camera is only issue to be resolved but stable and quick enough to be used. :) youtube video added Edited October 3, 2010 by shingers5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest shingers5 Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Actually, I'm sticking with the new Sense HD Rom from xda right now, I L-O-V-E it. even the guy you is working on Desire HD port has tried it so there you go. it stable and very quick. very few things remain in chinese. everything works but few omissions in market like spotify. i have been in market and all i use is there so i am happy as are many many others on XDA. this is a rom for daily usage as its so stable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest volatile_ink Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 My calender says 3rd October, should it read 1st April? WTF would you want to take 1,000,000 steps back and have your desire look like an iPhone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF would you want to take 1,000,000 steps back and have your desire look like an iPhone? mate this is not an argument. if you dont like it don't try it period. no need to come off all like that. this just shows how customisable android really is if you have the know how. swerve this one if its not for you! this forum is for everyone and there are others who might wanna try something new and fresh. i too use the Desire HD port with no camera but this is wicked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BashyUK Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 I can understand and appeciate that it's impressive from a technical achievement perspective but yeah sorry, I can't make my phone look like the phone I made a conscious decision NOT to buy! Show that to an iFail owner and they won't think 'whoo that's impressive!' they'll just think 'why didn't you just buy one you wannabe?!' A standard response from someone buying a phone for fashion purposes :) I Will definitely leave this one well alone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A standard response from someone buying a phone for fashion purposes :) I Will definitely leave this one well alone! Just use launcher pro or adw launcher. The icons will remain ehhh boxy but the usual android feel will stay. Guys you have recoveries and nandroid to backup and restore, just try the damn rom before judging. The best battery results I ever had was under this rom. 3 days with medium usage was out of the question before for me but this rom rocks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Entreated Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Oh so just to get this straight, this Rom makes your phone look like an iPhone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shingers5 Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 Oh so just to get this straight, this Rom makes your phone look like an iPhone? yeah and no. the UI is based around the IOS look and functionality but this is truly Froyo all the way man. it does all what iphone fan boys dream bout but based on cyan mod 6.0. i use it as it is stable, fast and reliable not cause i want an iphone as i have got an iphone 4. in comparison this blows IOS 4.1 away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest spammyspam Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 I was thinking of heading to Cyan, but I may try this instead. The paranoid part of me wonders about trusting such an unknown entity with a ROM though. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The paranoid part of me wonders about trusting such an unknown entity with a ROM though. Thoughts? its on a base from a mod we know and trust so cant see anything going wrong at all. give it a whirl as can always flash back if not happy as thats the beauty of this flash scenario man. without these forums i'd be so bored. i alternate between this and desire HD port Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Subject Delta Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 The whole reason that I brought a desire was that it wasn't an iPhone, but it's nice to see the modding seen creating something for everyone :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest woti17 Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 seems it quite happily introduces the usb - sdcard mount bug again? in vold.fstab "auto" ... what about the problems described in the thread on xda: languages/keyboards not working, wifi/browser not working, some market apps not available, bootloops ... to name only a few? why should it be any different from other roms - beside the userinterface, it uses the same radios, what about the kernel/libraries - which and how modified? modules - ipv6 gets enabled by default, but no tun and cifs module?

Guest shingers5 Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 (edited) seems it quite happily introduces the usb - sdcard mount bug again? in vold.fstab "auto" ... what about the problems described in the thread on xda: languages/keyboards not working, wifi/browser not working, some market apps not available, bootloops ... to name only a few? why should it be any different from other roms - beside the userinterface, it uses the same radios, what about the kernel/libraries - which and how modified? modules - ipv6 gets enabled by default, but no tun and cifs module? i have had none of these so cannot talk for others. the things missing from market i dont use as all my apps are on the phone. i have had no bugs with this rom at all so thats my user experience. bootloops are down to flashing as i have 96mb swap and 1024 ext 4 which have given me no issues. rom is sweet and battery still going strong. i dont see point of trying to find faults with the rom as if its not for you dont flash it. geez! if you do flash you may not experience any of the things mentioned on XDA as i have found.

I've been using adw since I got my phone but am currently back on Sense, having realised just how good it is. Although I don't understand the relevance of your points to this post??? Hey, I never said it was a bad ROM did I?! Just that I don't want my phone to look like an iPhone as it isn't one nor do I want one! Chill bro! As for battery, glad to hear it, today is the first day I've not had to charge during the day, go Alex-V :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
