[ROM] The Ultimate Droid 3.2.5 Discussion

Just felt I should share this with everyone since I don't think a lot of people know about it yet.I know I never heard of it until the other day.
Trying to.get.an idea of what others think.
I guess there has been some controversy between Blackdroid (UltimateDroid) and the CyanogenMod team over the likeness of Ultimate Droid to CyanogenMod 7. They are almost identical, however, Ultimate Droid offers far more customization and every bit as snappy. As most of you know, the CM7 Final was released nearly 24 hours ago. I obviously downloaded and flashed it immediately to check it out. Honestly, there just wasn't anything special enough to keep it, I immediately restored my UD backup.
I certainly don't want to get in the middle of any beef between developers, after all these are both phenomenal ROMs.I just know I am always looking to try new ROMs and other methods of tweakness and hope others would speak up...
Obviously, I take no credit for anything here, just sharing info...

Seems like if you read the forums enough life goes in circles, doesn't it?
Tapatalk Pro Sig. Yep, boring.

Just more customizable. It allows you to easily change things like themes, boot animations/sound, and system font (which might be my favorite feature). That, or the ability to add a custom message (or name/nickname) to the lockscreen.
some will prefer CM still and certainly nothing wrong with that.

Tried his work on my d1. Nothing really special. Stopped using his stuff after that whole thing happened.

People are still talking about things that went down a year ago? Wow.

UD Rom is the best hands down.
Edit: I could care less about the year old beef...bunch of whining babies. I'd steal your lunch on the playground if I could.

UD is much more stable then CM. Faster, smoother and far superior battery life. Who cares about the stale drama between the 2 open source deVs. Its all about the final product and UD takes the cake.

Just out of curiosity, are all the additions aesthetic, or are there any performance enhancements over CM7? Like the power control widgets or the lockscreen gestures and things like that.

Wow.... I think this is a record for the longest running UD thread.
For the record, I can't stand aosp roms but would choose UD over cm any day. Especially with cm7. I think cm7 took a step back with removing their custom options and adding the theme app. The only "gimik" they have on cm7 is that its Ginger Bread. Other then that, nothing stands out. The last "good" cm release was cm6 rc3, hands down. And UD is pretty consistent with their releases.

Found my problem. It was that the webpage was set to mobile instead of full size. Once I clicked on the bottom I was able to download.

HTC ROM? HTC Sense? N1 already got it!

Does here any chance to get HTC ROM (Sensation/Desire S/Desire HD...) or just HTC Sense (2.1/3.0) port to our great P990?
just see a ported ROM for Nexus One, a little bit missing my old phone... /_\
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App

I still have my Nexus One

mine was gone with the thief ><

Don't know if it's possible, they were able to port itbto the n1 because iy's very similar to the desire, i think.
Sent from my Optimus 2X using XDA Premium App

I think actually its ported already. Sense 3.0 .... Look in the theme section for P990
Edit; just a theme but it looks good indeed

tbh mate, dont have any high hopes for this kind of port,
HTC phones tend to be very similar (nexus1 is basically a desire) so when a new version of sense comes along, its not that hard to port it to other devices.
Porting sense to a totally different device, from a different manufacturer, with different processor, just makes it too tricky. You'll notice that the Galaxy s, (which is way way more popular than our phone) doesnt have a sense port either (after just double checking this, turns out they do have one from the 2nd of june and its very buggy alot of things dont work)
So yh basically dont get your hopes up about a sense port, with devices you tend to get a modified version of your own manufactures rom, if your lucky a CM7 support, and possibly a miui rom. If the device is very popular then you might get the odd asop rom, but for example you wont get a port of the SE arc rom on our phones or anything like that.

Curious about my new project? [UPDATED May 29]

UPDATE ON MAY 29, 2012: I'm sorry guys.
I won't be releasing my project. I'm actually stopping the effort to port the rom. I can't do it, it just is way too complicated to complete.
This means, until I decide to work on something new or find something worth porting, I am not developing for the D3 or Droid Bionic anymore.
I won't be picking up Motoblur + Android 4.0.4 either, so eliminate that question as well.
I hope you guys won't get mad.

I'm all for options, but Sense just isn't my cup of tea. Not to mention it would be Gingerbread based (I don't believe any HTC device currently has ICS), and many people (myself included) would see it as a step back.

What exactly has you hung up, as far as ICS is concerned (just a question)? Everything works, with the exception of face unlock, and some spotty bluetooth issues. Granted, I'm not overly familiar with the GSM builds and their respective bugs, but most people really seem to be enjoying the 4.0 builds...

My hope is that we see something completely new...not a port of an existing Galaxy Nexus ROM, but one built specifically for the D3 and other Moto devices. I would love to see something fresh and original, yet streamlined and efficient, that we can all enjoy.

The HTC One X has it Actually, I think all of the new HTC One series phones have it.

it's will be great if it contains a RTL & BIDI languages as well.....

I'm definitely interested. I prefer having full functionality for my phone, so the ICS ROMs are out for me for now, and I prefer the GB ROMs to be unthemed. It seems that all of the themed ROMs have something that I think looks mediocre (bad fonts that make it difficult to tell normal from bold, or that flow badly; on screen button elements that do not work right; mediocre battery indicators on the status bar; unattractive notification pull-downs; etc.)

Have you taken a look at mavrom? Youve got a lot of theme choices at one click of a button.
Sent from my DROID3 using xda premium

i really hope its a good, multi-lang, gb 2.3.7 rom liek cm7.2 without any bloat like sense.
maybe even the hw-codecs and such are working?
btw. if you need a gsm guy for testing, msg me.

Here's an update:
This rom is a pain in the ass. It really is. So the chances of me completing this, with school and other things have gone down to about 20% from 70%.
But here are some details:
Gingerbread 2.3.6
Later Software from another device (I'm not naming it)
No GSM compatibility
Sorry GSM users, there isn't a way GSM will work on the rom until the device I'm porting this from is updated later this year.

Are you using the Bell or Chinese ROM? I worked on the Bell 2.3.6 port, and it worked, but my modding/theme-ing skills are weak, so it didn't move much past stock appearance with some build.prop tweaks.

[ROM]inSense 3.5 by Superbeak

Hey all, I am Superbeak.
This is a ROM based off of the community project: Clutch:the new transmission by PureMotive.
Due to frustration and odd problems, I decided to tear Clutch down, and rebuild slowly, piece by piece. This ROM is quite fast and has great battery life. My hope is that you will support me with the "thanks" button and post actively and submit your ideas!
ALL UPDATES FROM CLUTCH 1.0.0 WILL BE POSTED HERE. I am managing this ROM and will be actively improving it to the best of my ability. I don't want donations,I just want to help keep the Incredible alive and kicking!
Big thanks to my buddy: PureMotive
and others which I will mention later on. No ROM yet, it's late. This nis just to get everyone migrated to the new thread.
Superbeak

First. Also, the game. Also, will download when I get home. Thanks for keeping my Inc alive!

I advise that you use clutch and see how you like it. Then give me bug reports ...experience...you know the drill.

Did you do a full wipe?
sometimes using VR_superwipe.zip helps

For those who cannot install clutch:
1. update your clockwork recovery through rom manager
2.wipe data/factory
3.wipe system and boot in mounts
4.do NOT use superwipe
4.flash rom and enjoy

I updated the update script for clutch. It has super wipe in it already. You just need to format /boot and /system. I will upload the update-script. Just drop it inside /meta-inf/Google/android/ replace the pre existing one with this one ..give me a sec I'll upload it:

Just right click,download as .txt and then remove the extension. It will then become just a "file". Drop it in the zip and flash

I've been playing with the idea of moving away from this project....I think I would be better off finding a different base,most likely not sense 3.5. I've been looking at joelz git, and many of these problems originate from the actual source for this port....I'm really discouraged guys. Right now, I'm busy, but....sense 3.5 is a WIP. I'll still be looking at these problems, but please don't expect any releases soon. I'll still be checking back several times a day so feel free to contact me.
Thanks.

Who's nils 3.5 Rom based on?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA

The biggest issue imo is the 3G drop that would happen randomly that you didn't know happened until you looked at your status bar and see it missing. Then trying to fix it was always guess work... Sometimes airplane mode on/off fixed it, sometimes you had to reboot. Anyway hope you can get it tweaked more!!
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA

I am currently looking into a long forgotten ROM for a base. I still need to flash it and look into it but my ROM isn't dead.
As far as the ROM nils, I believe it is based from the runnymeade sense 3.5 leak that came out a while back.

There goes our last melon.....

Who said i'm getting a new phone? Nah the suprise is still in the works, so far it is stock themed, but im not going to release it like that, if all goes to plan it will have an awesome theme, with super smoothness.
It supports all kernels, including stock, 725mhz, 77xmhz, and 806mhz.
I am creating wallpapers and testing to make sure it is stable and bug free, however This rom will be very app minimal this meaning only the core apps are there freeing space and speeding up the rom things such as facebook, teeter all the bloatware is gone.
There is support for 3D home screen swapping and hopefully support for link2sd soon.
It should be out by the end of the weekend, if not early next week because I have college to fit inbetween.
Be prepared for the ReVoLuTiOn!

Cooorrrr I hope you get link2sd support (and swap) working as I've been spoilt lately

Im just about to test that, the rom feels very smooth as of now too.

If you need any testers just ask! We need a change from nameless and explosion!
Sent from my HTC Desire C

You would think this device would be more popular since it's dirt cheap... but I guess the specs don't excite rom developers, people prefer raw performance rather than efficiency. Maybe this device has already hit its limit in optimizations...

I don't think it has, as said before i'm new to compiling and modding things on android, it will take a while I think but hopefully it will be faster than nameless. Currently the scrolling seems liquid smooth and I have tweaked the graphics drivers a little for that extra little bit. However To add some tweaks what i need I can't make a update script that works, but it should be fixed soon once I know how to do it more im learning bit by bit.
People who want too test PM me, I have a couple of testers but i'm not releasing any beta until my theme and tweaks are sorted out.
