Virtuous X-Series
This series is for ROM's that are not feature complete, are test builds that may or may not receive any future updates. We generally would not recommend these builds for people that rely on there phone 100% of the time, they may, assuming you can live with bugs or missing features be suitable for daily use.

Great work on this first rom MDJ and Virtuous team!
- Information below is about V3! - I am not updating to the latest now!
I flashed this using:
- the latest 3.30.401.x firmware
- 11.69.3504.00U_11.22.3504.07_M Radio
- 4EXT Touch Recovery
- I performed Nandroid backup then a full wipe then the flash!
- First the Rom - Following are all optional
- Second the face-unlock (post 2)
- Third the OC Kernel by Sebastiaan
- Fourth IME Fix
- First boot takes a while
My Experience:
- Keyboard takes long to pop-up and doesnt always work properly
- Wifi works perfectly
- Mobile network works as good as in 3.30.401.x
- Exchange works, with Smart-Sync!
- GPS fix is excelent, accurate and fast.
- Navigation through CoPilot & Maps works great!
- Face Unlock works Using Zip in Second Post
What doesn't work:
- Landscape in Rosie
- Wifi Hotspot
- Mirror
- Bluetooth, does pair, but not function!
- Beats
Not resized properly:
- HTC IME Keyboard - Can be fixed, see below!
- "App installed" icon
- Weather in Weather app
- Dock mode
- Emergency dialer
Bugs:
- When typing an email address (after the @ sign?) the HTC IME doesnt function properly! - Can be fixed, see below!
- when setting up an account, the first window can be out of order/distorted, just go back and reopen it!
- When scrolling the apps menu, from left to right, little delays and lags appaer, artifacts? - less with V3

< Just my opinion about "KANGING" >
So even IF this rom, or the TripnRaver rom, is kanged, I don't care..
Android is about Open Source!, not "keeping it to yourself"
Please alle look at Baadnewz for an example!
"You can use any parts of the ROM as you please. You can even kang the rom and make "your" ROM. I really don't care"
If everyone would think in this same fashion, all so called "developers" would make equally good roms, but only the REAL developers would make the BEST roms..!
--> everyone can make a car, but only the best can make a Lamborghini/Ferrari/Hummer/*input your favourite brand here*
PS. I do believe in "credit" giving! but I also think, when someone does NOT give credit, ask them, if they do not respond, leave it be!
