Does anyone try UltimateDroid rom in this Link : UD ? :D
Looks pretty sweet and it's gingerbread. Wonder why it's not on here?
Makes me think the developer might of gotten banned for doing something naughty.

edit:
Site looks extremely similar to CM7 and so does the ROM, it's features and the dates they came out.
A ton of developers rip from CM7 but they usually credit, I haven't seen any on his site.

What ROM would you all recommend if I wanted the following:

HTC gallery
HTC camera/video cam
HTC clock (alarm clock,timer,stopwatch, etc..)
HTC Hub access (could live without, but would be nice)

customizable pulldown power widget (gps toggle, wifi, bt, data, flashlight, etc..)

awd launcher, or similar sense launcher that allows me to customize the app drawer (list, horizontal grid, vertical grid)

gestures.

Any good recommendations? I really like HTC camera,gallery, and clock most of all. However, coming from a Moto Droid, CM6/7 have really spoiled me when it comes to customization and features. I'm having a hard time finding the best of both worlds.

I welcome your opinions and recs!

SkyRaider Sense 3.5 gets my vote. It is by far the smoothest, most stable Sense ROM I've used. Plus, the dev is coming out with a new version any day now and it's going to have some new, allegedly never-before-seen features. It's going to have some stuff from gingerbread and Sense 2.0, despite being based on froyo. It's all HTC Sense, has customizable pulldown widgets (right now you edit it in a text file, but I think the new version might have a CM7-style configuration option). The new version will also have a configuration menu, a-la CM7. I don't know if it will have built-in gestures, but there are gestures apps.

Also, I would recommend trying LauncherPro over ADW. I keep hearing how great ADW is, but to me, it's slow, just like stock and Zeam. LauncherPro is super fast on my Incredible and has TONS of customizable features. Why anyone would just a different launcher, I don't know. I guess if you desperately want a transparent app drawer, which only seems to slow things down.

CM7 has sooo many awesome features that I have not found in any other ROMs, and is definitely what I would go with if I preferred vanilla over sense, which I have tried so hard to do but can't, but I keep coming back to SkyRaider. Just look at the 3.5 thread and see how many people keep viewing and replying to it because they are so excited about 4.0. I personally can't wait.

My two cents.

Thanks for the reply that was a very thorough response. I too agree that CM7 is awesome, and I loved it on my Moto Droid running Launcher Pro.

Is it safe to assume if I ran awd or launcher pro, htc widgets wouldnt work or is this something that Skyraider is able to do? Either way thanks again for the response. I see skyraider is on Clockwork Mod so I'm going to give it a whirl and see how it feels. Looking forward to playing around with it. :)

Skyraider is a Sense ROM so I'm 99% sure you'd have the Sense widgets even if you're using a different launcher.
The OFFICIAL sense widgets actually are not available with LauncherPro, but it includes its own widgets that look almost exactly the same. Although, in my opinion, they are better because they don't have crazy big images and text on them like the stock widgets do. Plus, if you buy the premium version, you can even re-size the widgets. Or you can increase the number of rows on your home screen, and you can tell widgets universally to either fill out the new rows, or to maintain their original size. It's nice.

I think we should have a "wiki" of sorts where all of us can edit it. That way, it's easier for POQbum (less work) and the Developers can update it when they're done with a new update/rom.

Yeah it would be nice if there was a better format for organizing ROM's. A forum really isn't the best place to do it, it'd be nice if xda created a sub-section of their website like this.

I know it is surrounded in some form of controversy, but FrostBlur seems like it might turn out to be a pretty good NinjaBlur rom for the Inc. v0.0.3 came out, and AFAIK, he is still accepting beta testers for v0.0.4b1
