Hi All,
I am in the Rom business for a very long time now and I have owned Android devices for more than 2 years now. I must confess, I am getting bored by the Roms and by the UI now.
Right now I have an HTC Sensation (Pyramid) and have had CM7, Sense up to 3.5, MIUI installed.
MIUI and CM7 still lacking Bluetooth functionality,but to be honest, the AOSP look is boring to me. Miui is nice, but where others say it is blazingly fast, I must say scrolling through settings is lagging. I mean a dual-core phone pumped up to 1.5GHz should not lag when scrolling through a list. Really annoying.
The Sense roms are too blown up and therefore even lag when I drag down the notifications area. Scrolling in general on sense roms is fast and fluid as it should be, but even a very stripped down Sense rom lags. And I don't like the round borders everywhere.
CM7 themes are more or less a joke (sorry, do not want to upset anybody, this is just my own thinking) and Sense roms are boring as well.
I read somewhere about a concept rom in the Miui forums, but I want to take the opportunity and ask the community if there are any interesting rom concepts out there in the wild or any tipp how I can have a complete makeover?
I have tested all those launchers (launcher pro, adw launcher ex, go launcher ex, those special funky ones (except spb shell)) and themes. I am not sure if SPB is worth it or not and if it runs ok...
Thankful for any input.
PS: Can't wait till Ice Cream Sandwich drops...
