Manilla - unsure, most roms seem to be manilla

Hey everyone,
Im using an old DUtty's rom (he hasnt made any in a while). I am wanting to flash with something new, but just about every one of the roms these days seem to be Manilla.
My question is, what is it like? at first glance i dont really like the idea of it.
CHeers
EDIT: and are you able to turn it off so it goes back to the htc home or whatnot?

i really like it, im using garmins with the opal dialer, easily customized with all the skins out there, (see development and hacking), much more useful to me than htc home, which i guess got old, just like the cube. my two cents,
Lupe

Thanks.
What about how it lists emails/sms's? does it just use that silly preview where u have ot go through each one? or can you open it to list the emails?
Cheers

Just flash one You can open it to see them all, or you can scrll through them all.

alright, u guys convinced me!
Going to flash one tonight,
any suggestions?
want one that doesnt lag, and landscape works (i use the keyboard for all typing)

Great question about porting apps/programs back and forth though roms

Ok I been reading these forums for quite some time now over and over I'm always reading that this here feature or that app can't be add to that Rom because it needs to be a Google or HTC Rom. For example the IM app can't be added to any HTC Rom do to the frame work and other stuff but can easily be installed on the Google Roms. My question is shouldn't we be able to take a lot of features/apps of these HTC Roms and and with a few libs and build on another HTC build. Example. I'm running Haykuro's 5.0.2h shouldn't I be able to take features/apps/libs from hero and port some things over or vice versa? I'm just asking cause I love 5.0.2h cause its stable and the features are one of a kind flake the zoom on the camcorder no othee Rom has it that ive seen but I love the contact sync with Facebook that hero has and some other things. Id k could just port them over to each other it would be a great Rom can it be done they both HTC roms ?

Just bout every rom now has zoom for the camcorder and camera. I haven't found a rom that doesn't.

I dont remember it on the hero rom, the cupcake adp roms ( i didnt try jf's) i just flash back from ion which didnt have it, haykuro's 5.0.2g didnt have it, i mean i can go on for days. They didnt have zoom for the camcorder i have videos i have made but back to the question please. If you not going to post an answer you can keep your 2 cent and move to the next post and waste your time there thank you.

i like your question and idea, i hope u actually get some constructive feedback now instead of hearing how this that or this..good lookin out

Thanks alot man for the support I was just reading how some people took the Exchange emailing app/libs from the Rogers Rom and put it on their phone so there's got be quite easy to take features from hero and maybe even donut (if its HTC) and put them on my 5.0.2g

I'm on hero and have zoom, been on the dudes build (cupcake) and that has zoom. I mean I can go on for days to. And to answer your question as long as its the same based rom (htc or google) you should be able to port over.

Ok well if its so easy as people say then im wondering why people are having such a hard time porting over apps widgets, programs, etc from hero (not rosie). I would like to have the text, stock, weather widget, the contacts that sync with facebook, the browser with flash, and many more "hero" features on 5.0.2h. I mean they all htc frame work and i know some programs depend on the frame work of the rom but there has to be a easy way around it for non developers like me and others. Also if someone does know of a way can you show steps in the terminal emulator I'm in the hospital and don't have my laptop with me

The stuff you want ported over can't be done yet. If you want the weather widget they have one that looks like it but not the same.

advantages of installing hero rom?

hi guys.this my first post so please dont get mad at the question.
i spent time learning how to downgrade,root,install hard spl and flash rom.problem is when i got done i really dont see any difference.the only things different i see is theres an android on a skateboard on my homescreen and a couple of new apps and console.could somebody please straighten me out why hero so much better than g1 os.i did a little searching on the forum but did dint find what i was looking for.
btw i installed cyanogens new rom thats stickied here in this forum

Try a hero rom and find out, you said you installed a regular rom. Just to name a few of the pros; HTC Music, HTC Widgets, Browser, Facebook Contacts. There are more, you just have to try it out and see if you like it.

Also remember hero rom was not made for the G1 so there might be some known issues...

I installed cyanogens 4.1.999...thats not a regular rom is it?

That's a regular donut rom yes.
When I say regular I mean something that was built for the device at hand ie. ADP/ASOP rom. Unlike the hero, blur, cliq etc roms that are not made for the G1.
