Well folks here you have, what is in all reality, the best rom I have created thus far. This is based off Newt's Incredible2 and Wdfowty's Remix. It basically picks up where Inc2 Remix left off, with many of my own enhancements added (and more planned). This is not your average 2.1 or 3.0 rom in one way...there is not a single thing wrong with it nor are there any "work-arounds" of any kind. I am officially calling this perfect (in large part due to it's great bases). Try it, I dare you, you will not be disappointed!

Normal disclaimer about how flashing a rom can be dangerous for your phone and such. Please always perform a backup before flashing any of my work (or anything really). If you some how mess up your phone it's your fault, not mine. You are not allowed to sue me, all you'd get would be student loans anyways.

THANKS
-As always, a huge thanks to Jermaine151 for getting me into developing and always being there to help.
-Newtoroot and Wdforty for allowing me to use their great roms as a base.
-Tiny for his CPU modules
-Sure there are others...I'm thankful for everyone!

-Custom white overscroll glow
-CRT on/off animations with settings*
-Custom black status bar (only for stock skin)
-Custom black lock ring

-Fully functional lockscreen

-Task killer

BUGS

-Might be some other small ones, up to you guys to let me know

*If you like my work and enjoy the rom please take a second and hit the "Thanks" button, it is always greatly appreciated!*

Thank you so much!!! I have been waiting for a ROM like this for a while now all that is out is sense 3.0+ roms and I love the look, but not the performance! I can't wait to try this one!!

I do not think you will be disappointed. I can pretty much guarantee this will be faster than (almost) any newer Sense rom for our phones. This thing flies! Plus not a thing wrong with it ;)

Ok so I'm a little slow... Inc2 base that way I can use VZW Backup plus cam and camcorder work.....I'm in
Based in the Incredible 2 and yes both the camera and camcorder work flawlessly; video is 100% smooth and crisp and photos look amazing. And I assume VZW backup works, though I have not tried it myself.

I literally just flashed your McSense for the first time just 10 minutes ago. I was on Insensitive Minimalist for a while and MIUI before that but I miss sense.

So my question is, of McSense or McTwist...

Which one do you think is better?

Which one do you think is more stable?

I guess what I'm getting at is, is McTwist as stable as McSense even though it is not for this phone.

Haha sorry, blame my internet for not uploading 10 minutes faster. Hmm, well I would have to say they probably tie in stability (tied at 99.9%), but McSense probably has a slight edge in quickness (hard to beat pure sense 1.0). But this definitely makes up for it in features and functionality. I would say this one is better, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder..it all depends on what you are looking for.

For those who are downloading/flashing, please reboot back once you get it loaded with some feedback. I want to make sure it's running as good for all of you that it is for me.

Looks like I'll be flashing another ROM tomorrow morning ;)

I am downloading and doing backups right now. Once I get it installed and running for a bit I will report back my feedback.

This is great. My fall back recovery Rom is WD's Inc2 remix. One of the most stable, best battery Roms my phone has ever ran. If I wasn't hooked on Newts 3.5 monster I'd probably rock this. Great idea Mc

Quick question...

Will these skins work with this rom?

[SKIN][04.07.2011] Skins for HTC Sense 2.1 roms

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048894
Yes sir they definitely should. This rom is based on 2.1 framework, so if they don't then we have a problem lol. Also a note to everyone: the "warm" theme that Incubus made for Synergy (NOT the one he just made for sense 1.0) should also work just fine.

Yup that was the exact same thing for me, so I decided to pick it up and make a few improvements on it and my own modifications and it came out pretty darn well. Yeah Newt's 3.5 does look hella sick (didn't get a chance to flash it since I was building this).

I'm tempted, so tempted. I'd really like a McSenseless built around this,though ... that's just me because I like the AOSP, look and feel

You beat me to this. ;)
I've been working on the Inc2 base, although I wasn't adding some of the Sense 3.0 stuff that you did. (lock screen, etc.) But after seeing this, I think I might just use yours. Mine was more of a personal project, but this looks solid.

Well I might be able to put together an AOSP skin for this (actually been thinking about doing that for a while), but I probably won't do an entire rework of this. I kind of want this to stay beefy and full-featured.

Awesome, let me know what you come up with!
