efex, you're on fire! Nice update!! Shame you went for Dialer One and not the stock Android/NX1 version [unless they're the same], but anyway, thumbs up for further development.

Am sure the rooted guys will appreciate your work :cool:

Well, I happen to like dialer one! (OMG AT ME! :eek:) Good looking (at least the black theme), shows small thumbnail pics, easy to choose sortings (what contacts/categories to show).
The N1 dialer is nice, but dialer one is much faster to search for contacts with (at least for me).

As for the bluetooth, I sent a photo from a nokia phone to the legend, no prob, and then sent another photo from the legend back to the nokia, flawless! Haven't tried to send bigger files (mp3 or such, as I don't have any on my phones), but no reason why it shouldn't work.

I'll be home in 7 hours, the ROM will be up about then.. :)

The ROM is nice and fast but two issues:1-bluetooth:I'm unable to send pics to my mac or windows computer(this may be a HTC bluetooth stack error becouse it happens in many cooked roms).
2-It consumes many RAM, after a reset it shows about 150-160MB and killing all processes.

Good Job.

Those are problems I do not have, at all.. Bluetooth: Havent tried to transfer to a PC/Mac in any way, but between phones it works as it should.. no problems at all.

As for the ram, I uninstalled all "pre-installed" apps (except for facebook and youtube), installed beautiful widgets, es file explorer, extended controls, lamppu, launcherpro, spotify, taskiller, xda. Running launcherpro plus with 7 screens, all used (4 with widgets, 3 with shortcuts). And Live Wallpapers. Without killing I have 120MB of RAM free, when killing all (except for widgets/services ans such) I have about 180MB.

I would say thats pretty good ;)

EDIT: I'll have a look at the ROM this weekend. Maybe I can add some speed-tweaks, or zipalign the apk's. Didn't get it to work yesterday so don't het yout hopes up ^^

Great rom. Fast & light, I really like it.
I got 3 small issues with it though.

It's missing locales. I usually use English (France). This way I can have the system in english but keep the french regional settings (dictionary,the way the phone number are formatted...). Is it possible to re-include all locales?

USB tendering cannot be activated. It's greed out. Possibly something to do with the USB bug?

How is possible to configure the lock screen? I understand some may like the transparency but I'd like to remove it or remove the clock.

Thanks for sharing your hard work.

Are there any further screenshots that could be added to the original post? Maybe it will help convince a few people thinking of rooting...;)

This ROM is really making me want to root!!
Maybe I'll give it a go when I find out a method for unlocked/unbranded Legends.

I believe the locales are missing due to removal of the HTC Wizard (the one at first boot). But I havent removed the resources, havent tried this,. but maybe you vould get MoreLocale2 from market and set a custom language to just what you want. :)

About usb tethering, havent tried it at all as I jsut sold my laptop, and when I had one I always used wireless tether.. sorry, don't know the solution to this one :(

There is no easy config for the lockscreen. Maybe you could search around the forums, see what comes up. I believe all the settings for it are in the android policy file in system/framework. This means, editing the jar and patching the system would be the only way. But I could be wrong.. (I would also want to have the transparency removed, but havent really put in any time at searching for the solution to it.

Known Issues/ToDo (v0.511)
  • No popup when connecting the phone to a computer, eg. no disk drive. Added USB Switcher (widget) until I manage to fix this (probably removed somthing that is needed). Add USB-widget to homescreen, connect phone to USB, press the widget - Now you have a disk drive connected.
  • Some options in Settings (Personalize, Text to Speech, Connect tp PC) cause FC because of Rosie and Tts-services removed.
Are you still working on this things getting fixed? It would be really cool if pop up window would appeare, and those options in settings would work. And one more thing, could you include HTC synch, for computer, some times is very usefull for installing aplications on the phone from the computer. Thanks!
