CM6/7 is the open source phone I wanted.
The major thing for me was the bluetooth stack in sense doesn't support the connection for a wii mote, but CM6/7 does.

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.

Yeah I know this is just a test release http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czdEvymanBs
But if you really think about it, Chris is using ADW Launcher. You could get that from the market. I honestly don't think CM is a big deal anymore. The only feature I want is the trackball wake.
I already posted this video

If you think CM only adds a viable launcher you're crazy and haven't really dug into it.
Everytime I switch back to Google's offering of their OS I'm flabbergasted at how paltry and lean it is.
Did you even bother to read the changelog? UI changes are just a small part of what CM has to offer. There are plenty things "under the hood" that makes the phone way better than the ones running stock Froyo.

The android OS is so minimalist to begin with. Short of changing a few pngs here and there There's really very little reason to do so. The majority of the time on a smart phone is spent inside applications.
The benefits of CM are really all under hood stuff, and tweaks.

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.

Ditto. Ask a hundred people what rom they are running, and you will get a hundred different answers. That's the beauty about roms, it only takes a few minutes to flash, so you can try a lot of different roms, and if you dont like them, flash a nandroid back to what you had before.

Myself would have to say Cm7 with MIUI as a very close second. CM7 is giving me better battery life by far and seems just a bit more stable. However I love MIUI's polish with things like its lockscreen music player and the cascade effect in launcher settings. Also MIUI gives me the best Quadrant scores of any rom.

The last post in the thread I linked was yesterday. That seems pretty current to me.
That post was posted exactly 1 month ago actually.
Currently on cm7 rc2, it seemed that set CPU had no effect on the nightlies but, with rc2 I'm at 22% and have been off the charger since 630am, its now 930pm. So I like that. I used MIUI for a while but each time I had it, it would start rebooting every 5 minutes after I installed it for a week or so. I'd have to say, in gonna try that new destroyer from magnus, it looks sick!!!! In running the honeycomb theme on cm7 and magnus' rom looks just as sweet if lot better.
I'm lovin' myn's 2.2 at the moment. Came from Fresh which was the only other ROM I had tried until now. I just couldn't wait any longer for an update. I'm glad I made the switch to Myn's.
I'm tempted to give CM7 a try but I keep hearing about bugs and the thing is just so damn fugly.
Until they provide something similar to Sense in the contacts side (FB sync + integration of contact's SMS/Emails/Updates/Info/Etc.), and a decent looking weather/clock widget, I'll stick with Sense.

I hated my phone after a while with the stock 2.1 and the bluetooth issue was frustrating and it was slow. The Sensible Gingerbread rom is actually pretty nice and it is getting further along every other day. The lockscreen is really cool too. But, this thing is a lot snappier than stock and it's 2.3.4 with a working camera and mms. You might want to try it. I was a sense naysayer before trying it out myself.
There's nothing wrong with having as many options as possible IMO.

thats what i was getting at if the release the HTC sdk and make some of the sense 3.0 for older phones you could strip down a htc rom or add what little to a rom that you want. it would give every one that flashes or builds rom more options.
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

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.

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?

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

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!
