Dear developers, I've decided to create a poll so people could vote.
I have been using Asus based Picasso rom, upgrading kernel from time to time. I'm still on 1.0.8 (Thor kernel) because IMHO its the best and most stable Tom around for my tablet.
I've tried xoom, galaxy, thrive and stock acer Rome but rolled back to this lovely Asus based one.
Moar = More
I chose "No" because in my opinion, Xoom is the best but I have not test the Thrive for the moment.
I'm still using the ROM mentioned above just because of browser sync, for example.

You do know you can inject the browser from your VP ROM into any other ROM before install correct?
I just went back to this rom after using xoom for a week, for me this is one Rom that I can live with whatever the issue is ( freezing when coming out of standby). M-Deejay said transformer will have its own Rom which is not under VP and it will be based on 3.2.
I actually loved the Asus based 1.0.8 and was torn between that and galaxy. I was rather annoyed when Asus base was dropped after 1.0.8. the Acer base 1.10 was very very quick and stable. When Asus based bombed out with unity v4 I just stuck with galaxy port. When Asus release 3.2 I am sure we will have another virtuous Picasso to play with. I did use Asus 1.0.8 with Thor beta 2 and yes it was electric. Still is and while awaiting galaxy update might use Asus base with Thor kernel again. Would be nice to see unity v9 for Asus base Picasso rom. Lol

I liked them for the fact you could use an asus based theme. Seeing as how themes are a bit lacking for our beloved acer, it's a nice option.

That's exactly what I'm talking about! Vote please, maybe some developers might pay some more attention to Asus based ROM.
Asus base was the first thing I flashed when I got my a500. Had a very good experience with it, before experimenting with other roms.

+1 For Asus rom!
Is ASUS based rom fully compatible with ACER material ?
I want to change rom because I have problem when I put my tablet (still in 3.0) in sleep mode and come back.

I don't have the update.zip saved anywhere unfortunately, because I deleted the image after flashing. I've got it installed and running though, also made a backup to roll back if I don't like any new rom.
Maybe you might PM mDj to send u a link.

True. I'm also using Thor's kernel 1.1: epic combo IMHO.
I'm glad somebody decided to do a poll like this. I'm hoping to get an Iconia in the next month or so, but I would really like a Transformer port and I can't seem to find one here. I've played with the Thrive, XOOM, and Galaxy, but I really like the elements included in the Transformer more (widgets, ice cube, and office app to name a few). Hopefully when I can finally get my hands on one, an option will present itself.

According to there site they are starting from a stock w/root US-8.4.4.5. Not sure which kernel. I'll ask one of the devs. The two main devs are Randy_t and Mammon.

He said it would be a bonsai kernel with init.d support. But was not sure about OC yet.
Hope these guys get it together.. that would be cool.

Yup, can't wait to try it out. Mammon said he has a 60% speed and performance increase WITHOUT any overclocking of sorts.
I believe it, because my Epic FLIES with their roms. And to boot, gets amazing battery life.

supercurio was working with clemsyn on obtaining the source that clemsyn used to make a custom kernel for 3.1. So no, we do not need to wait on ASUS to release the source. ASUS does need to release it though, it would make things easier. You could see supercurio working on trying to obtain it in his kernel thread.

Pretty much no settings for the Transformer. However it was like that when i first bought it for my Galaxy Tab, so rest assured that everything will come.

so does it make a big improvement?
Yes it makes a huge difference I have always used sc kernel on my galaxy s and the sound is phenomenal compared to stock, the recording presets also make a big difference, however the app does little on the tf for the moment but it wI'll come in time

Same here. Already a custom ROM availbe for the nexus s so that's a good sign
I would like to see it on my Acer,Asus and EVO,but the HTC EVO is still in the gingerbread phase,so it might be a few for my phone.
those sayin they would prefer honeycomb on their tablets.
remember ICS will have source out, meaning REAL custom roms
honeycomb will never get this.
therefor ICS will be the right choice for tablets!

you guys cant possibly think ics will be in revolver soon, ics is a whole different os which has different system files and behaves differently.
getting all the optimizations from 3.2 to 4.0 will take a while and that is if the tweaks work on ics.

Yeah I imagine it will take a while for us to see a revolver ICS ROM released. Honeycomb is still new to me as I got my TF101 for christmas and my nexus one still rocks gingerbread. To me, so far, honeycomb feels like what I think ICS will feel like. I guess I'll know for sure when I get my Galaxy Nexus next week...

Having both Honeycomb and ICS (with previous experience with Donut, Eclair, Froyo, and Gingerbread), I'd have to say that ICS has the best parts of all of them, a lot of the looks from Honeycomb, but with the feel that you wished Honeycomb would have had. Then shoot that full of steroids and add a slice of pie = ICS.
I'm hoping soon after ICS is released for the TF we will see a flasble stock Rom that will not remove root.then we can play with that while waiting for ICS on KRAKD
DESIRE HD using ER3BUS ASUS TRANSFORMER on KRAKD
I'm super excited for ICS, but i don't know the best method to go back to stock and keep root. I'm too antsy to wait until a custom rom is built, but i also don't want to forgeit the option of using TB to recover all my applications and game saves. What's everyone's thoughts on this?
You know that the TF is NOT going to get ICS on the 12th, the statement from Asus says the PRIME gets ICS. Asus has made no statement that I have found for a release date to the TF. IMHO it does not make good business since to relase it to the TF until the hype has gone away from the release of the PRIME and the update of ICS.

As far as I know there hasn't been official confirmation by Acer to the public yet but yes, several "blogs" have claimed that Acer has confirmed to them that the A500 will get Jelly Bean eventually. Personally I don't see why it wouldn't unless they EOLed the A500 and even then it'd really be a burn for them not. Take it as a grain of salt until you see Acer throw something up on Facebook though....which they may or may not do since they've gotten crap every time they promised an update (and it came later than promised).
Acer South Africa replied to my email saying that the A500 will be getting Jelly Bean but they don't know when.

Why, Oh Why, did I buy the flagship product from Acer (at the time)? Maybe I should have gone for a Sammy instead...
If JB is anything like ICS 4.0.3, then no thanks.
Best part about a500 receiving JB is possibility of XDA developers like Civato getting their hands on source code and tweaking it. If you haven't tried out his ICS Stryker ROM then flash it to see true potential of a500 hardware. I've been switching between that and CM10 JB ROM which is also very stable now. JB has serious potential especially once you include a kernel from ezterry or linuxsociety.
