Here is the third rom that I am adding to my portfolio. It is closely based off of my McSenseless . This one is very exciting to me because it combines some the functionality of AOSP with the beauty of Sense 3.0 features. I think you guys will be really pleased with this if you enjoyed either of my first two (or even if you didn't!)

THANKS
-As always a huge thanks to Jermaine151 because none of my roms would exist without his guidance.
-An equally big thanks Newtoroot for letting me use his great rom as a base.
-Thanks to Incubus26jc for helping me with the lockscreen and questions.
-Thanks to all you great members of XDA, I do it all for you.

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.



FEATURES
-Based on the Desire HD Sense 3.0 update
-Custom white overscroll glow
-Custom black status bar
-Fully functional quick settings
-Inc2 data icon
-Advanced power menu
-Custom Launcher2 with right button remapped to mms
-All Sense 3.0 apps remain
-Extrememly debloated (rom size down by almost 100mbs!)
-Clean Sense 3.0 lockscreen (can't change anything because Rosie has been removed)
-Wireless tether (2.0.7)
-AOSP apps added
-Remaining Sense apps have had launcher icons replaced w/ matching AOSP
-Probably more, but that should be enough to get you to flash ;)

AOSP APPS
-Calculator
-OI file manager
-Sound recorded

BUGS/ISSUES
-Removed HTC Hub, but still in apps. Can easily be removed using Titanium Backup
-Video recording is choppy (try lower resolution, might help)
-Video recorded in portrait plays back with only white screen (video recorded in landscape works just fine)

TO DO
-Add CRT animations
-Theme notification pulldown
-Theme Rosie to semi-transparent

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

Thanks for all the support guys, hope you enjoy it. Just found a bug that I don't know how to fix at the moment: I can't change my input method in a text field. I don't know what I did to break this. Hmm...

Edit: haha disregard, a reboot fixed it right up :) all is good.

Hahaha! Sweet! Exactly what I was looking for. I tried this on my own with not much luck. I get my panorama cam with AOSP feel. Awesome! Thanks McD!

No problem guys, I thought this concept would excite some people lol. It's been running fantastically for me all day FYI. And if you really enjoy it all I ask is to positively rate the thread and maybe give my "thanks" some love :eek:

Already did :) so Tiny's kernel should work fine right? And I remember that some of the guys over at MIUI got the Sense 3.0 lockscreen to work but as a theme. The icons couldn't be changed on the fly, but they got it working pretty good. Any idea on how that could possiblly work on sense roms or this?

If I've helped you, hit the thanks button!

Thank you sir, much appreciated. Um I'm not sure if Tiny's will work for this or not? This isn't based off the Incredible OTA GB leak, this is based on GB for the Incredible 2. So I'm not sure what all Tiny's kernel is compatible with. You can ask in his thread or try flashing it (make sure you backup first lol).

As for the Sense 3.0 lockscreen I purposefully took it out because I wanted this AOSP. If you really want it there are apps in the market (Agile lock or Widget locker) that can achieve the same result. Sorry.

I figured as much. And the lockscreen is no big deal. What is a big deal is first booting up and seeing 198 megs free in task manager :D Can you tell me where I would have to edit to get rid of the recent apps in the notification bar? It seems redundant to me.

Haha I know right? I may not be a master coder, but I can slim down a rom with the best of them. Yeah I am looking in to that, I would also like to make a flashable mod to get rid of the apps in notifications.

You're on a roll Bro!! Great work as usual! :D
Haha thanks, I think this one is my favorite so far. Running hella smooth, with some sweet elements in it. I was going to give you a thanks, but I don't want to be the person that moves you from "420" lol I'll wait until someone else does first.

Edit: there you go someone finally got you to 421 haha.

Just flashed. The Flashlight toggle is fc'ing and takes the Notification app with it. I'll reboot when the download of apps is finished. Did you mean to leave Wallpapers empty?

Haha oops, I think I forgot to put the modded flashlight at back in(it's not in your app drawer right?). My bad, I will make a flashable zip for it later. And yes wallpapers have been purged in an effort to save space. I am going to post the default wallpaper though.
