What happened to all the great builds? All the great ones are now outdated, but aren't being replaced with a better one. The closest thing I have to what I want is Darkstone 2.1, but the battery life sucks balls.
I want this:
Nexus One-based Froyo
NO SENSE... God I hate that keyboard.
Decent battery life. Seriously, DS 2.1's is pitiful.
Black status bar.
NO CYANOGEN
Sorry, I'm in a ranty mood, I realize that it's not easy to make a build or anything, and all the devs deserve credit for their work even if I think some of it is pure crap.
Anyway, where the hell is Dan at? His v1 Froyo was the best...
try Mattc's, that is the closest to waht you are looking for.
He is supposed to be releasing v1.7 in a few hours.

Completely agree... if he was at least donating and being in a pissy mud - I guess... but this way, try out every build like everyone else...
BTW - you will not get better battery life before Android goes onto Device Memory - why, it's because of SD CARD...

This isn't true - it might be part of the issue, but there are also problems with the drivers that are responsible for charging the battery in Android and I think that is really the main problem

Cyanogen is Vanilla, with tons of customizations (including the notifaction bar color) that you can apply yourself in the settings. Shu8i build is just themed.
Try one of the unthemed cyanogen versions like bangsters. even Shu81 has an unthemed version.

In addition, how many more threads are going to be opened in which the same has to be told? I mean, the OP is not even a newcomer in the XDA Community. for whatever situation he might be going through, that is not the way to ask for something. Have you even consider doing something for Android to work better? If your answer is NO, then sit, relax and shut up (no offense.) This is a community, not your house. Im not a developer/programmer, but at least I took the time to see which Radio was the best for most android builds. I risked my 2 phones so other could enjoy a better android in theirs. I didnt come crying and kicking to ask someone who I dont know if he/she has another JOB/Life besides XDA, to fix my phone because im mad and its getting worse...

I pointed this out in another thread. It seems some people believe that making roms for the community are the devs full time job, when in fact its a hobby and most do it with there spare time.
Look, it's just because it's surprising that the builds are declining in battery life, 7 hours on airplane mode and I lost 40%?? Seriously?

Offended me? It would hypocritical if I posted a rant about hard-working developers and in turn was sensitive myself. Anyway it's quite true what you've said, it's just the battery life is getting unbearably pitiful.
Sir Cyanogen isnt the theme that shu8i is using.
The theme is shiftedx's theme.
Cyanogen is a build based on asop with some addon's. Most of the addons are things that has caused the community grow.

As far as battery life. You do realize that the Hd2 was never ment to have android.
lets go back in time before dcordes decided to take on this project. I'd be a sad panda if he decided to stop trying.
Sir I think the best bet for you would be to create your own build.
Or if jesusfreke Would come back on the scene.
heres an idea. get a portable battery charger duracell makes them. They come in many different connection types. no matter what you do these days will batter life be fair. it's been written and proven. google it. theres an article out there battery life never gets the upgrade like other hardware and software upgrades do.

Yeah, but what you also have to remember is that developers are not mostly working on battery standards. instead, they are working to have every single function on the HD2 (including the hidden ones) working normally and then to perfect them. I think that is a nice plan

Almost all those builds are just original nexus one or htc desire rips. It is the kernel that makes those builds great mainly.
I think shubcraft and mattc are the most frequently updated builds and they are better than those old builds.
If you absolutely want vanilla, try shubcraft REALSTOCK from http://www.vbnfiles.com/xda/shu8i/
Since it does not contain sense, cyanogen is vanilla with improvements.
Cyanogen can change status bar color.
You can make those old builds you mention better with new kernel and modules from http://oe.netripper.com/files/htcleo_autobuild/?C=M;O=D (Since that is basically what you will get if newer versions of them are released)
I have %1 per hour standby battery drain with shubcraft (cyanogen) I can turn on/off anything from the power control widget. My Android does not use more battery then winmo when screen is on or off. Don't forget to kill apps with advanced task killer. Keep wifi bt gps data and preferably 3g off when you don't use. Don't use 100% backlight. You'll match my battery consumption. (Don't forget to disable autorotate from settings display to stop touch freezes)
There are almost 10 ten keyboards to choose from. You can install any keyboard you want. I recommend HTC_IME_MOD by jonas high resolution because it has volume keys as right left arrow function.

I've been following the progress of the Cyanogenmod development for the Vibrant lately and it seems to be moving pretty quickly, i.e. there already booting into the main UI, I believe. Anyway, I'm still wondering if anyone out there has even a rough estimate of when it will be available for the Vibrant? Thanks in advance.

Some time in the near, or distant future. One of Cyanogens pet peeves are people asking when it will be there whenever they are able to get it done. All of the dev's have loved ones, jobs etc. We can give estimates all day long ranging from early September to late October/November. Sadly the only ones that do know would be Wes.

I obviously care, and I would like it soon, but I'm not going to hound Wes or any other devs about it, and I don't think posting a question in a thread counts. I'm not a dev and I can't code, so the best I can do is beta/alpha test, and if no one helps me that's perfectly fine.

What draws you to the UI? cause ADW has the sides scrolling option that TW does but you can use themes and such.
Ive seen the adw drawer. It is very similar and I like the convience of the scrolling bottom on the home screen. But im not too sure of stability. I heavily modded my g1. And from time to time I would get force closes. Im trying to minimize the mods on this phone. The adw drawer is not bad. But right now its not something I want on the phone
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
The TW drawer is nice, on my phone ADW doesn't load right. When I first go to the tray it gets stuck in a loop where it keeps wanting to load the tray it just can't. After about 5 tries it usually loads. The stock icon's look better than the adw galaxy s theme, and even when I say use stock icons it doesn't use the phones stock icons.
aawww, I missed a flame war.
What's a good flame without little old me?

I like TW too.
I like some of the samsung apps over the stock ones.
I'm not as interested in CM6 as I am in Froyo Period.
I would like to see a sense rom, but i doubt that will happen.

I love Sense and can't see getting away from it. But there's so much hype about CM that I'm getting curious about it. What's so great about it or what makes it better? I thought its just a basic version of Android??

Um...no.
CM is AOSP plus a whole slew of features that should have been default in AOSP.
CM is far from a vanilla rom.
Have you ever wanted to redesign a thing so it would be right?
Well here it is. The code is there to be touched. The devs have sweated into it. Its not data mining for Google though it can be. It's not spinning frames though it can track context.
Take others' advice and read up.
As for me, I'll know when my transition criteria are in cm.
I heard that it is faster than other ROMS but the battery life is inferior to Fresh Custom ROM and others. Is this true?
Also, call me crazy, but AOSP is just plain and ugly. =/
I get the same battery life on sense roms that I do on cm.
With cm7, there is a 'theme chooser' app which is pretty cool. There are only 3 themes right now but i am sure it is easy to make your own.
Also, there are cool things like quite times, gestures, goggles (prevents you from drunk texting, lol), and settings so you can tweak basically any aspect of the phone.
It really comes down to preference is all. If you havent tried it out you should, you never know if you will like it or not

True. I know that it is as customizable as it gets, but I am reluctant to leaving the aesthetics of Sense behind. I know it can be quite unnecessary, but some of it is actually pretty useful. I specially like how it handles "People" where it syncs the information with Facebook, Twitter, etc. and segregates all relevant TXTs, e-mails, profile updates to that specific contact. Does AOSP have a similar option?
I am not the social network kinda guy so I am not sure. I'm not going to say there is an app for that because I would have no idea lol!
I can totally see someone digging sense, as I have used myn's and it is definitely visually appealing. I have also used MIUI and I can see how people like that also.
You can always do a full nandroid and return to your original rom after you try it out. More or less, just wanted to make sure people knew it wasn't just a plain jane rom
load it up and give it a shot.

This.
I installed CM on my EVO and got annoyed because it wasn't the Vanilla ROM I wanted. It used ADW for a desktop and the Visual Voicemail and 4G didn't work. Lame.
Of all the ROMS, Fresh (all though probably the most conservative) seems to be the most stable.
normal android devices, and the atrix on 2.2, use some standard nice screen transitions. to enter an app, zoom in. entering each subsequent screen the page swoops from the right. and backing out the screen swoops back to the left.
now on 2.3.4, EVERY single transitino is a zoom in/out, and i have never seen such an ugly horrendous idea before. anyone know if there is a way to bring the device back to the stock method? maybe in custom ROM with frameworks edit or something?
just can't comprehend how someone thought "hey, this looks great, let's change it to this way". am i crazy?
Yeh it sucks, but you'll get used to it...

Yes.
But to fix your "problem" go to settings, display, then animation. Pick no animation to get rid of any transition. I don't think there is a way to get back to froyo transitions.
And now that I think about it, I don't remember it ever swooping left or right. I had a zoom in to enter an app and a hard cut home when leaving an app.
Oh it swooped left and right, I just confirmed this on 2.2. Its the standard android way. We read left to right. Right is forward, left is backwards, its a very valuable ui element to all android phones flow.
Of course for now I disabled animations, but that looks bad too. I just can't believe it, I truly am blown away by this.
I don't c anything wrong with them

I get it, but I am saying that I've not hated something so much and been this annoyed at something in the last 10 years. I literally hate it with a passion and ruins the experience totally for me. Its that bad for me.
Edit: and yes I do have dev experience and will see how if possible to add it back so but this isn't a simple theme solution as the transitions are likely part of the moto frameworks or similar. I'll definitely look and try to learn more. I committed a couple hundred lines of code to the cyanogen repository last year and it got merged in to final, but I'm not so great in the grand scheme of these awesome devs.

yeah, all smartass aside jokes. im sure we will get someone to make animations. usually takes a while.
need stable ROM, then themes, then hacks/mods, then little things like animations. usually how it goes. we dont have a completely stable (custom) ROM. that i know of that is. like MIUI, CM7.

Well for reference, gingerbread on all devices uses the standard method. Zoom in/out for the entry and exit point of the app to home screen, with all screen changes inside the app swoops left and right for forwards and backwards. Only moto changed to all zooms on gb, and they had it right on froyo.
All zooms actually messes you up a bit if you're doing some fast navigating around the device.

First of all for those around here who don't recognize the name - I hail from the Sprint side of things
I came to the Atrix was blown away by the stock rom. Had a look on good ol' XDA about 10 minutes after I left the AT&T store - unlocked.
The community here seems very friendly and the work that's being shared is very solid! I see mentions of CM7 here and there but haven't seen a link (wow it was right below this post too!) - Alien does everything I need.
I am, however, shocked to see no mention of MIUI and the Atrix anywhere. As amazing as MIUI ran on my Evo and Evo Shift, it's punishment not seeing this device taking advantage of all the pleasures that it should be delivering.
So, out of curiosity - anybody else out there wish we had something like that around here?
Yes; others have commented about it. What I've seen is that MIUI will come after CM7 which is still actively being worked on right now.
The Atrix was only recently unlocked. They also just got their hands on the source code, so expect good things soon.

Yeah it makes sense, from a kernel standpoint.
I haven't dived into the Atrix yet, or had the phone for very long (still haven't even researched webtop.) - I was just curious as to what kinds of development the community here was geared for.
Well, once we have CM7 fully working, porting MIUI to Atrix would not be a tall order! So, stay tight; we will have MIUI in due time
Edit: Late again to the party
I'm sure we all want it, its just the fact that it's based off of CM7 (Which we have, but is in an alpha/beta stage.) I'm sure once that is stable, We will eventually have ourselves some miui...i hope, at least
EDIT: WOOO! Just realized this is my 100th post...lol

The hard work is definitely the modules etc. The MIUI launcher is stunning. The theme manager is so comprehensive...
Yummy.

i came from a samsung galaxy s the captivate, at times i miss it becuase of all the custom stuff. But the bootloader unlocked on the atrix keeps me hoping that it will be like that if not better.

Some people enjoy Miui over CM7.
Preference is purely subjective.

I cannot deal with a dialer without t9
and imo the MIUI music app is WAY better

For now ... I have had miui music installed on the Atrix. Came from N1 & missed it so there's that ^_°

yeah im more on the miui side, CM7 just gets boring to me, no editing on camera (i take lots of pictures), no editing on gallary app, music app is eh, everything is just plain. thats just my opinion though. i like eye candy (; like sense, miui, etc. even though i havent used miui since mytouch 3g slide it was pretty badass aha
MIUI is the rom I've been waiting for, cm7 looks ok and all, but it doesn't have nearly the appeal as MIUI does for me
Funny how people love Miui but hate iOS. All Miui is, is an apple ios look alike. Probably why people like it since ios is so pretty.

However, one CAN like the look of something but hate what it actually does and how it functions. That's why things like Android + MIUI or whatever are great, because you can get all the looks of something like iOS with infinitely better function
iOS and MIUI are pretty different imo. aesthetically maybe looks similar from screenshots .. but like thebeardedchild said, functions are COMPLETELY different..

Yup. Its like having the very nice look of ios,but android running it. Me for one,rather have miui with a Android theme. I usually run miui and install a launcher. I like all the customization really

I too would love to get MIUI on my Atrix.
I spent a more than a year with my Nexus One only because of it's MIUI implementation, so mature, so well implemented.
Now, I want some MIUI love over here!
