Yes in a flashable zip would be amazing. I love the Sense 3.0 lockscreen, fast access to messages or phone or email and a quick view of the weather is what I love about it.

Willing to give this ROM a shot but just can't give up that lockscreen, I know I sound horrible lol but I really really really like it :D

This one hellua good Rom. I would really recommend you give it a try. With or without the Sense 3.0 LockScreen ;) .

Lol I got so use to the 3.0 lockscreen that I forgot what to do when I say the 2.1 lockscreen. I was hoping 3.0 screen would be in the control panel but it doesn't take away from this amazing rom and the time it took them to get this rom running is outstanding. Big ups to the devs

I would definitely be into a 3.0 lock screen. This Rom is crazy good but I love the weather lock screen.

I am getting sense reloads when using various brightness widgets, can anybody recommend a good widget that works with sense? or maybe it could be baked into the next release?

TIA

If anybody wants to contribute some UI elements or themes, I can put them in the Control Panel. You will of course get credit within the app. Send me a PM with the ZIP/PNG and a screenshot (if you can).

SystemUI: if you have a themed SystemUI.apk, just zip it up along with other apks to match (like DownloadProvider.apk, ect). If it's a background, I just need the png. Make sure SystemUI.apk and other apks are in the root of the archive

Lockscreens: make a zip archive that has the apks folder structure (com.htc.resources.apk). Example: res/drawable-hdpi - put any pngs in that folder (lockscreen_arc.png, lockscreen_arc_incall.png, lockscreen_arcglass_bottom.9.png, lockscreen_arcglass_top.9.png, lockscreen_prompt_back.png). Make sure your .9 pngs are compiled!

Overscrolls: same basic format as lockscreens. Make a zip that has the folders res/drawable-hdpi and contains overscroll_glow.png and overscroll_edge.png.

Rosies: same as SystemUI, zip up the apk. Make sure Rosie.apk is in the root of the archive.

Batteries: TBD.

    About the kernel... It is based off of htc's 2.6.35.10 kernel source. The clock tables, voltages and added governors are a combination of the 5 kernel developers I mention below. I also added v(r) i/o scheduler, thanks mdeejay from Team Virtuous.

    This has been a long time coming. :beer: First I have to thank my wife and kids for being so patient while I stared at a computer screen. Endless thanks to one_love_420 and Dread 7us for all their hard work, knowledge, and patience. Huge thanks goes to Dodgejcr, for taking the time to teach me almost everything I know about kernels, answering my noobish questions :), and writing up some awesome tutorials located at his website http://dodgejcr.com. Tommy Tomatoe has been such a great help to all of us, we can't thank you enough. I have some more thanks to give to a few other people, in no particular order toastcfh, scaryghoul, mdeejay, dodgejcr, x99 (kernel sources to compare, and help trouble shooting), aamikam (a2sd trouble shooting), strapped365 (panorama camera), and htc (base kernel source). Last but not least, the whole Shift community, a.k.a. the best community on xda. I hope you enjoy this ROM as much as we did making it. If I forgot to thank anyone, please let me know and I'll add you. :)

    Edit: Here is a link to custom skins for those that are interested... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1048894

    Edit: link to my .config zipped up for tun.ko and cifs.ko kernel. here
