***You can also try flashing your favorite Mecha Rebirth Updater Package and share your results!***
:goodelete the sense lock screen apk to use the AOSP lock screen
:good:AOSP JB 4.2 Camera
:good:AOSP JB 4.2 Keyboard
:goodelete any other sense apps you want to, and replace them with aosp apps. Either from LiquidSmooth or NonSense for the Evo
:good:Add Pie Controls (optional) NEW
:good:This will not convert your system to aosp, just let you enjoy the aosp user interface, results may very!

I've been running MaceksMod for a few months now, and it's smooth (though some serious lag in chrome sometimes). My main complaints are that I can't find a Wi-Fi tether app that works and I can't send or receive MMS. What's the deal with this? If it's based on the OTA this shouldn't be a problem right? Any ideas?

For tethering, use wifi tether for root users from play store and go to the settings and change device profile to generic ics/jb (wlan0)
For mms, use go sms pro

Ever use AROMA? Try that to make an automatic de-sense(er)

mmmk well i get a wonderfull error message when installed then phone restarted.
i guess you need flash support installed as the error says unable to play swf?
how about some instructions?
Sorry 'bout that. In working on this I totally forgot to place instructions on installing. Thanks for the feedback

If there are any bugs with the switching between Portrait and Landscape, please post your findings.
Thanks
Sorry Dude,
Tested on my 8525 running Schwapps Rom,, Runs really slow and choppy... and icons didn't work...
-Good Luck
Works as advertised. The speed of the app is acceptable considering its Flash. I like the concept of the app and think its creative. Switching between portrait and landscape worked fine (although slow). I installed into device memory also. Good work so far cant wait to follow the progress. I'm using a 8525 with schapps 3.60a (fresh install).

Bugs in stock phone

I am assuming once you root the phone and push a custom ROM onto the phone, this will fix HTC's introduced bugs?
Bluetooth
SMS battery drain
Reverting apps versions
Stuff like this.
No, because the custom ROM is just the Sprint ROM with a few additions and modifications.
Ouch.
ok, anyone working on compiling a 2.0 kernal?

Although the bugs are not fixed, rooting allow one to use various workarounds that would not be possible without, and in fact for EACH of the issues you have listed:
Bluetooth: http://community.sprint.com/baw/thread/23854?tstart=0
While I cannot personally vouge for this, I have seen many posts on Sprint and here that detail the workaround described in the post as effective.
SMS Battery Drain: I think this may have actually been the first big bug discovered, and also fixed without root! Unfortunately, the default messaging app is defective, so in the meantime it is recommended to use either chompSMS or Handcent SMS from the Market until an update is released.
See this post: http://community.sprint.com/baw/thread/23043
Finally...
Reverting Apps: This is addressed on both forums, but a workaround only exists with root, and is similar in fashion to the bluetooth fix but for a different directory.

Hope this helps! I intend on posting a very detailed guide on every step of rooting, backing up, and working around most of the detailed problems in the very near future, stay tuned!
What I'd like is a kernel that will have this working as intended. But really, I am not afraid of the work arounds and the hands on work required, but if my wife had this phone with these problems, she would have chucked it out the window within days.
One more...
You left out the original bug (mentioned by briankwest, one of the first rooters), the TCP timestamp issue:
echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_timestamps
This could also be added to the MoDaCo init.rc so it is set at each boot (otherwise it will revert back to "1").

We have worked very hard at making this build as stable as possible. Phone runs smooth and is meant to be used as a "daily driver." We pride ourselves on making very stable roms that you can flash and not have to worry about. So far testing has produced no issues but please report any you may find. We will be making our own custom kernel edits in the future to improve battery life and also will be working to optimize the framework to help with phone performance as well. For best results it is recommended you wipe data for best results.

Looks interesting. I know I can always delete myself...but many people on here request the removal of the sleep and health apps in addition to the aforementioned. Also, due to it's lack of cities, many don't care about the weather app...BUT this will affect the watch faces. I would like to know if there is a way that we can change weather providers or add cities to the stock app?

YunOS [ROM][N7100][4.4]

[your warranty is now void]
Hello,
I am not using this forum active but i have run across with this chinese alternative rom which alibaba group make to compete with ios and miui i guess.
Rom 4.4 based (possible aosp based they build their framework on it)
using it for one week, you can remove any app from alibaba (include appmarket but doesnt try service.apk's ) its a good thing i guess.
I am not the developer of the rom, just sharing to get our rom databes and gettin attention to people who wants to try new roms.
has english and chinese language default. but you can activate other languages from morelocale and install fonts with other programs like ifont.
installed opengapps 4.4 pico works great
has own camera ui and i like it
got no bug or problem except opera cant work.
dont forget adding whatsapp etc apps to auto start(or you can lock them on the ram like miui)
750 mb ram using while whatsapp wps mail hello sms and timely locked to ram
400 mb ram using after start.
all apps using their own notification panel as you can swipe up icon to see its notification. they also seen on notification panel as you want.
has free themes and fonts like miui
very flow and has speed,battery friendly. has backup feature to sms' to applications.
has its own security panel to prevent trojans and password protect( when keyboard is active disable the connections immediatly while password screens)
installation instructions
latest twrp recommended
install rom
install gapps
start rom
open playstore and insert google account info
restart and flash supersu.(kingoroot also fine)
I share it because there are more versions for other models but our beloved note 2 stuck at 4.4
