i love froyo! its ultra fast and ultra smooth, but.... these threads seem to always have "buts." anywho, custom roms have dominated my phone from the beginning and the small things(spare parts/extra mods), as others have mentioned, have a pretty big impact on usability and convenience. whether or not these small things warrant a change back to custom roms depends on the users needs and wants.
for myself, im probably going to switch back to a 2.1 custom rom now that ive tasted the frozen goodness. its quite flavorful, but its missing the sprinkles (just my spoiledness). this may be the "ultimate" current rom for some which needs nothing else, but my palette yearns for an extra oomph. dont get me wrong, im not bagging google in any way, i just feel like ive grown heavily dependent on the extras the mods have been so gracious to add.
for the record, i love google and i love how theyve given devs such an awesome platform. cheers for everyone in this community who feels the same.
Just curious what "extras" have you grown heavily dependent on?
Everyone acts like they didn't know it wasn't gonna have those extra goodies. I for one can do without those few for imo the best stock rom ever

Cyanogen 2.1 vs stock froyo = froyo ftw
Cyanogen 2.2 vs stock froyo = cyanogen 2.2 ftw
Cyanogen will probably have a FroYo build out within the week
believe it or not, trackball wake has been pretty big. a small option, but something i use all the time. also, having the battery percentage on the notification bar, customizable led lights and rate, black desire notification (which i think can be morphed?), reboot from the shutdown menu, ability to hide pictures in contacts just to name some.

For trackball wake. Download screenmodwidget put it on launcher, set it to the middle setting and now trackball wakes. Not perfect but works....
As far as battery percentage download battery indicator ....
I for one like browser the most on my phone, so naturally I like froyo cause of the full flash and speed of the browser ....
I also think its noticeably faster than cyanogen 507 t2. Now with froyo and cyanogen we will be in heaven.
I love CM's features, but one of froyo's features alone -being able to change the language by swiping on the space bar- is more important to me than all of them put together.
I can't live without it now.

wow! i guess i shouldnt be so surprised at how fast everyones working on froyo. thanks paul! i suppose i can go without for a few days..
FroYo!
Im sticking with FroYo!
Trackball colors already work, sms pop up changes the colors of the stock mms app and gmail notification changes the colors of the stock gmail app although this one needs an update as its buggy. I would think sometime soon trackball alert will work from the market without requiring root, same for nexus torch now that the video camera can leave the led on.It really seems like theres no reason to root anymore with everything google is providing access too. Main reaon i rooted before was to use wifi tether but they even give us that now too so I will likely just use a de-odexed factory froyo that I can theme and leave everything else alone. I love the battery life and the lack of "quirks" that the stock roms provide. I always seem to have terrible battery life and missed calls/other flukes with the Nexus when I use other ROMS than the factory one.

Any application that has an LED modification setting will change the color of the trackball depending on what color you direct to do whatever. The trackball only lights up with the altered color when the screen is off.

Hmmm, I'd answer both to the opening question : I've been spoiled by the extra features found in custom roms (some of which are in froyo, like tethering), but I'll stick to Froyo and wait for Cyanogenmod 6 =)

All of us know that Android development on our HD2s' has reached a very great time and now we are running the roms and android versions that very few new devices experience them officially.
The reason i am creating this thread is this that...after using CM7 roms for while (nearly 5 month) yesterday i finally switched to dungphp sense 3.0 rom (v1.7) and at the first sight i see my HTC HT2 (the evergreen Phone) alive with colors. because as much as we know the bigest annoying thing about CM7 roms is the pale color look and dark mode that they have...
but sense style and more colorful shapes which reminds us of a original HTC phones, really has increased my interest to HD2 once more time
but besides all this, the sense roms ar very slow and as far as as all of us know...glitches and some other bugs are really annoying.
and this happens where, that all CM7 roms now are really bug free and suer fast on our HD2, which makes the LEo more than a Native android device!!! (as my own experience when my friend see my HD2 running Android (CM7) and comparing that with their own devices like Desire,Desire HD or Desire S...my device is as fasst as them and sometimes more interesting due to CM7 special features) but with CM7 my device screen is like black and white infront of them, and it reaally annoys you!
.
.
.
so after saying this, i want to ask a questions from you and esp. the greatest HD2 developers: Whats the best way for HD2 android development in this (as i think) critical time? i mean developing CM7 roms, which are really 99% bug free and super fast to a more colorfull and better screen performance or developing Sense 3.0 roms to make them faster and trying to see no glitches?
and WP7? i think it has no chances against android...just great 720p playing!
.
.
.
i think this thread will really help us, by knoing the idea of all HD2 Android users. so please enter here and leave your comments to make our HD2 ever better.

Well i don't really get your problem. Why don't you just use a theme for cm7. Think there are a lot out there in the xda forums and i'm pretty sure there are some colourful under them. Or just try a miui build. They are fast and stable like cm and can be skinned and customized like no other ROM and it's really easy...
And there always will be both. The cm roms and the sense ROMs. I think there are more than enough devs for our hd2 so that they don't have to concentrate all on improving one kind of ROM. Some of us also like the clean and not so colourful stuff.
Sure,but MIUI roms are somehow just beautifull and not useful...there more different from the way we knew android. I have tried them but after just few days dissapointed and changed to CM7 and now sense 3.0...
Yes themes for CM7 may be a good choice but,i meant the total base of CM7 roms are dead colors.

I have to agree. I never have seen the interest in MIUI like other people do. It's just uninteresting for some reason.

One thing I will say since I've tried MIUI before, is the great many themes for it. There are what seems like an endless number of all different kinds of themes for MIUI. But I still think my dislike for MIUI stems from the lack of elegance it has. An example of this, even though it can be replaced, of course, is the stock MIUI analog clock. It just looks pitiful to me. But it's indicative of the whole system. There just doesn't seem to be any elegance or refinement to it.
i have to disagree. i also don't like the miui launcher and use go launcher with it, but it's much more functional than cm7 or something else. for example the dockbar with all the quicklinks on the second page, flashlight when pressing home button while the phone is locked, the messaging app, theme program. you can do much more with a rom that has the miui base and if you don't like the look of the iphone just install another launcher than you have your elegance back.
first i thought the same about miui but after using it for a while there is no alternative for me in terms of functionality and customizability.
and the most important thing, it's fast and only has 2-5mAh in standby.

sure it is true...when we install a MIUI rom, are HD2 seems just beautifull with that so much of themes but as you said the very first features we benefit in our CM7 or Sense roms are lost in this kind of roms...
even the MIUI launcher is not so customizable, as an example you can not make a shortcut for your word,pdf or... files!...
anyway i don't think MIUI would be the future for our HD2s

you mean tht these small feature are really superior to that of CM7 roms?! like special features that we have in CM settings? idon't think so even the MIUI rom is comperable in the features to sense roms but they are beautifull and like CM7s' roms fast...no doubt in this.
but would you tell me the features that make MIUI roms very special? which makes them paying more attention than CM7 or sense roms?

I'm going to have to eat my words. I downloaded an SD build of MIUI, the 3dak version, and am seeing elegant operation. It is actually compelling me to like it. The flashlight shortcut is brilliant! It is exactly what a flashlight should be; right there easily accessible without fumbling in the darkness to find it.
Sorry to keep the offtopic going but regarding MIUI I have only one oppinion.
It's great, it looks ok ( maybe a little to playful for me ) but the gradient banding is a great turn off for me. When they will do a dithered version specially for hd2 or ( so help us God ) they fix the banding issue, I will give a second thought to MIUI.
Oh. And facebook calendar sync.

What Feature do you have in cm7 Settings that miui doesn't have? Please tell me. I only know overclocking and therefore i was using setcpu even on cm ROMs. There is not one feature i'm missing from cm on miui. And yes these small things like quick access to flashlight from the lockscreen make a ROM special for me because it's just useful.
I didn't say miui is the future for our hd2, i said that there's no reason for the devs concentrating on a single type of ROM cause so much people are working on hd2 android.
Miui would just be the answer of the things you were complaining about.

Can you explain what banding issue you mean? I never heard of that or experienced any problems i didn't have on other builds.
Ok, some might say this is picky.
Gradient banding is when the screen displays more colors than the screen actually supports at that time.
More details here: http://origin.arstechnica.com/news.media/Colour_banding_example01.png
And creates that stepping effect that really looks terrible. Yes, it has no effect on stability, functionality or anything else. It's just a visual artifact that for me makes it quite clear that it's just a port.
The best way to see the banding is to enter the dialer in MIUI . Give it a try and report back if you see smooth gradients. I would be surprised.
thanks. ok your right. never really noticed it. the ring of the sense 3 lockscreen for example has also gradients but there is no banding. i also can see it in the stock launcher but because i don't use it i don't care.
really never noticed that.

so,we are not making a war man...be calm please , we are just discussing...
so about the features...e.g: LOckscreen gestures (which makes mopre than that shortcut for flashlight in MIUI,because you can acces just everything by adding a gesture in your lock screen not just flashlight ;-) ), other features like tablet tweaks, so many features for light sensor and display that MIUI does not have! or many others ;-)
but i am not saying MIUI is bad!! beceuse the first time i my self installed it, i really enjoyed alot ,esp. from the way it looks and make our HD2s' alive and very colorful and goodlooking with so lots of theme stuff.
but the most annoying things are this that its taking its origin from the IOS and not android, we love android,and we all believe that its more powefull than IOS because its open source. even if we use a different launcher still the setting is just the way i said...any way,
i think if we could have MIUI graphics on CM7 we have all that we need.
anyone could make this possible?
This thread is ridiculous...
"You know what I like about Sense 3 ? It has very beautiful color !!!
You know what I like about CM7 ? It so fast and useful !!!"
You know what I like about MIUI ? It look so pretty and feels like an iPhone !!!"
Please, just be grateful for the versatility of our devices and to the devs still working on it, although it's getting old.
The rest is just personal tastes and doesn't deserve to be discussed...or polled...

if you use this features it's ok but i never needed them. tablet tweaks are for tablets and i personally don't like my statusbar on the bottom. but this is all personal liking. i also never needed additional display or light sensor settings. sure it's good to have it implemented but i never missed it on other roms. and most of this are things that can also be done by a third party app. the only thing i would like to have from cm are the toggle additions where you can automatically switch off 3g when your connected to wifi and something like that. these are really useful but most other things are not really needed for a phone. at least i don't need them.
miui just looks like ios. it's still open source and who cares how the settings look when you installed another launcher? i go to settings once per month or less. and i think that they aren't bad on miui. you can find what your searching for very fast.
but as said this is all personal taste and there are enough developers to make roms for the tastes of every people, so there's no need to concentrate on developing one kind of rom.

Hello everyone,
I'm cooking a good taste ROM, but i don't like to make a " known " ROM features, with nothing new .
So, what do you prefer to see in a Custom ROM for Lollipop 5.1 for our beloved Xperia Z1 ?
good job bro in your upcoming rom realize I wish a rom with new Sony concept with 4K record a good sound mod. battery also the main problem in lollipop roms, no roms now Can compare with kitkat screen time anyway brother every one has a different wishes so I hope you wont be confused with people's complaints and questions
Good Job
double tap to wake, good sound mod and 4k video recording.
1. 300% total blacked out lollipop 5.1.1. firmware.
Yes, I supercalifragilisticexpialidociously hate the constantly changing colors. Don't get me wrong, the matte look is what I like, which is why I have 2 motorcycles that are both matte black colored, but this chameleon thing is just.... @#$%^&*() !!!!
2. Put back the original Sony Walkman logo & app please, same look (but blacked out), same feel, same menu/configuration screens/options BUT with a much louder audio output that doesn't break the audio quality when the volume is cranked up.
3. Highly, extremely debloated right off the bat but fully functional smartphone. Please have a look at this.
4. No added "Settings" on the Settings page.
5. No modified About phone page.
I honestly do not know if this is possible. You can have the Developer option already listed in the Settings page, but on the About phone page, at the bottom where is says Build number. Turn that into an option so when tapped on, the it opens another page with all the About ROM, About Kernel, About Author, About etc., put on for custom firmwares. So in that way it looks like a stock and official Sony firmware, but it really isn't.
6. Native double tap to wake and double tap to sleep function
7. Time lapse
Not a fan of 4K recording too because it eats too much space, not all phone can readily watch 4K recordings yet. Same with TV sets unless your the ultra rich or you always have to have the newest TV set that has 4K option on it.
8. Manual Camera controls like that of DSLR
Off course it still won't compare to the real DSLR cameras but to at least have a much better control over the camera would be nice.
8. Full screen contacts picture
9. Child lock
I don't know if you can ever call it native or embedded, but a child lock that isn't a 3rd party app I guess would be nice.
10. App lock
Like that of Clean master. Also same with #9. I don't know if you can ever call it native or embedded, but a non-3rd party app too.
A highly debloated ROM with a good sound mod and some screen saturation controls along with better battery tweaks and double tap to wake.
Sony concept OS in our device would be superb.
Full layers compatibility would be great too.
Sent from the future.
im a big fan of customization, so hopefully there is some difference.
Do you mind with a ROM size 1.6GB ?
Offcourse the actual ROM isn't 1.6 it's a light ROM, but with Mods selection and Aroma it's 1.6GB .
So you can control the ROMs Mods not the opposite.

@abo hani - suggestion if you don't mind: put up a poll if people would like Sony Stock or AOSP. And oh, yeah I'm reading more and more about layers - I like the total black out it's giving at least on the screenshots shown in Google Play store. If layers will keep the customization-friendliness going but maintaining the debloated-ness (if even remotely possible) that would be cool.

I'm gonna develop a stock based ROM, AOSP ROMs are not in my developing region, if you mean " dark / light " apps, yeah .. i'm gonna put them and believe me, the users gonna control the ROM features in every way, so you gonna feel like a ROM dev when you put your own customization .

@abo hani if you can add these too to your list it would be awesome: Battery Life, atleast a average day's use like 6+ SOT should be good.... Awesome sound experience, i am not saying stereo mod, Just a lot louder than stock and good clear audio... Camera mods would be good, even some third party camera apps, if they really improve the performance...
Last of all and most important, it would be good if it is a UltraSlim version of stock, like just OS with fully operational phone... And if needed add the rest as add-ons... I would prefer to have the mods implemented directly than using Xposed...
That's all.... That should be perfect.... I am not asking for an ETA (You can just skip it if you want to) but when you are planning to start it?? (Just Curious)
Are you going to use a existing kernel or you are cooking a new one for your rom??(Again Just Curious)

Please take a look at the system UI icons. The mobile signal and the battery icon are too far away from each other, it makes our status bar very ugly IMHO.

The ROM isn't posted yet, but as he's going to make a stock based, so I'm already making that suggestion. :thumbup:
Sent from the future.
Thumbs-up!
So excited?????
Hello XDA users and developers.
Any recomendations on what ROM(s) to try out for that Nexus experience on a OnePlus 2?
Also can I get provided with PROS and CONS of said ROM regarding that NEXUS/PIXEL experience??
Thanks in advance !

Beginner question.
What is the difference between a ROM being official and another one being unofficial?
I thought it'd be stability issues.

Unofficial means that the dev team doesn't support that device but instead someone else unrelated to that team develops roms for that device by using the source codes from the original team, after asking for permission, of course.
So, in case of any queries, you can't go to the team, instead, go to the dev developing the unofficial rom.
Follow up question:
ROM with no "slow charging" message displayed while charging?
or is it just the nature of the hardware on the OnePlus 2?

I used pure nexus and found AOSP Extended to be much better in terms of features and stability. Here are the things that made me change from PURE to AOSPEX:
-Google play store crashed a lot.
-Netflix can't be installed.
-some apps weren't compatible.
-No led customization options.
-modified pixel boot animation.
-slow fingerprint sensor.
-It's still on beta (AOSPEX It's stable)
-Not official.

Whats gapps did you use?
Also, does it have actual pixel launcher and not a 3rd party one?

-Bean Gapps mini
-Yes it does. But the one in pure nexus has a better wallpaper selector (if you really care about that)
The one thing i wish i could change in AOSP EXTENDED is to remove the huge AOSPE logo from the device settings sidebar. But that's just me.

I was able to install Netflix on my case for Pure Nexus. Also, the one thing I am not liking on AOSP is a bug on Snapchat.
Volume bars not accurate with actual volume.

-Oh i was able to install Netflix as well, the problem comes when you open the app and it shows a message saying that ¨the app is not compatible with your device.¨ This did not happen on AOSPE.
-Sorry about the snapchat thing, i don´t use Snapchat so i didn't notice about that.

My favorite rom for nexus 6P
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Wow, been about 6 months already. Time flies. Will be good to see it on P2. Loved it on 6p
Best rom news to date!
That's awesome, it helped breathe new life into my N6 for a year before getting the Pixel 2XL
Can't wait, way too excited!!
Nice. PN was the only ROM I used on my 6P.
It was a great rom in the Pixel XL.. Glad to hear it will be here soon for the Pixel 2 XL.
Pure nexus is cool but I would love a resurrection remix rom!
just a curiosity question what made pure nexus so good? this is my first google phone so im already really enjoying it and all its features espically the frequent updates.

Oh heavens, where does one begin. First and foremost, the developer. Beans, is a tireless perfectionist when it comes to his roms. He welcomes input from users, and corrects bugs ASAP. Just do a search on PN roms. You'll quickly figure out why he has such a great fan base ??

It has so many features not found in stock ROM. Off the top of my head the things I miss are:
1. Hold down power for two seconds to toggle flashlight.
2. Rearrange and customize navigation bar (I prefer back button on right side).
3. Separate notification and ringer volume.
4. Night mode which not only tints the screen but also lowers the brightness (what good is tinting the screen in the dark if it's still full blast?)
5. Hide carrier and lock screen shortcuts for a clean screen. And ESPECIALLY being able to hide the alarm time.
But seriously there are probably dozens more options I use that I'm not thinking of right now.

a few of those sound pretty nice i think the pixel 2 xl has a night mode already lol. but i like the idea of being able to hide the lockscreen stuff alot i hated that they made that the standard. does it run a custom kernel?

Stock ROM has "Night Light" which just puts a tint on the screen. Still keeps it full brightness though.
I believe it does actually use a custom kernal by default, but you can use whatever kernal you want.

ah ok when ever ive used it always seemed so much dimmer after it tinted it but that could have been me on battery saver too lol. ok cool thanks far all the info
Best news for today. That's the only ROM I've used on my 6p and og Pixel XL. Can't wait!
Stock is so good but somehow Beans' PureNexus makes it so much better. Can't wait for this.
