I know... but sprint reception sucks where I live, and I need good reception for my job, which tmobile doesn't have
Well the Nexus One is supposed to be unlocked, so therefore, you could also always use AT&T if they have got good service in your area.
The hardware specs are nice, but the handset is a brick. If they could have only put some effort into an elegant design.

I am really excited about this.
If this becomes a good Sense Froyo build, I am very excited to see it be ported here.
If, by that time, no one is into porting, I will investigate what it takes.
I'm way too excited about Froyo with SenseUI.
I thought I'd point this out here, for all to see. I believe desire is 320x480*** (perfect) and that serves to make (some) things much easier.

Umm, I MIGHT have seen that a few days ago, and I MIGHT be looking at it...
I MIGHT have to kiss you Kaos!
I might have to think kaos is going to be covered in kisses by me! <3

I'm beginning to think kaos is not a human at all, but some kind of super computer that gets its jollys off by building the sweetest rom's for the Eris!! Lol

UGH, I didn't know it was.
May-haps the resolution problem isn't that much of a 'problem' anyway.
It seems like every .apk will contain images for 800x480 as well as the .xml files delivering visuals that way...
I can't imagine it being easy, but maybe I'm wrong. Again.
Its already been ported to the EVO.
Wife has an eris so this would be great she loves sense and froyo would be nice.
P.S. I have the Incredible and I'm thinking its time for punk.kaos to upgrade to the incredible he is the hardest working dev i've seen.

Well, there's a rumor going around that someone might have shipped that Kaos guy an Incredible to dev on.... But you all know how rumors go. Especially from such an unreliable source

Kaos is the terminator!
A solid Froyo with SenseUI would be the end all of ROMs for me.
I would stop modding my phone completely, if I had this, and it worked well.
................
OK that's a huge lie.
But it would make me very happy.
My buddy just got an EVO and has the Mario live wallpaper constantly running. That screen is H U G E. And that phone is silly fast. Outrageous.

I always wondered how all those rumors start.
lets focus more on how your phone performs after time
does it lag up when you have more then 2 apps open?
does your camera take 20 seconds to load up?
cool you have jit and uv OC super duper kernel and your linkpack is a bazillion
i don't know my linkpack, don't care, but my phone works super smooth and i love it
i've tried out a bunch of different roms every week
i used fresh for the longest
with darch 2.7 for about 2 months
now i'm on zenherofx
i'm not Jit but just a moderate over clock no UV
perfect for what i need with ADW launcher. guess what, i don't know my linkpack
Lol, thanks?

huh? couldn't tell you as ive never owned one. my next move is the evo again.
While the Hero is kinda slow when stock, I've got no real complaints. Jit, in my opinion, is almost useless as it makes very little real difference. I also used to care about getting the highest possible linpack score until I realized how unstable it can be.this way. Point is, your Hero may be slow, but if you can't change that then nobody can and you shouldn't be aimlessly *****ing about its shortcomings.

I'm going to stop this here before it gets anyway worse, and may this serve as a warning to all who participated in this thread. Threads like this are against RULE 2, particularly 2.3 flaming.

Hey all,
Just thought I would inform you that my Epic 4g is officially ordered, and I will receive it in approximately one week. Not only do I want to thank everyone for their amazing support of me for my time on the hero forum, but I'd like to let you know what I will maintain while I'm gone in the Epic section. I WILL still maintain my Q&A section, and will look for questions in my Themes. I will not be releasing new versions of themes, however. If you all would like the themes ported for the latest versions of CM, feel free to do that I just want to let everyone here know that they've helped me develop as a themer and developer, and I will miss this section. And please, feel free to join me as an Epic user
Thank you all again,

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.
