You can make phone calls, texts, and if you can actually believe it you can take pictures. Also I heard when you root your phone you need to start spelling words correctly. Correct me if I'm wrong.
you can do everything supremeteam256 twice as fast as before.
You can install a full Linux distribution, like Debian.
You can run applications that require root, like Screenshot and Auto Rotate your Browser and or any other application.
You can install the latest Android build directly from the Android source tree.
Customize your boot image.
Install Applications to your SD Card to save space.
Use your phone as a tether to connect your computer/laptop to the internet.
Turn your phone into a wireless router that provides internet access.
And from the cyan stable changelog because I really hope you didn't install the experimental build right after rooting for the first time. All of this is an improvement on a stock phone.

download load it and put it on your memory card. It's a googd idea to wipe if you're going from experimental (based on donut 1.6) to stable (based on cupcake 1.5). If you have cyanogen's 1.4 recovery choose "flash any zip" select the ROM and flash. If you're not using that recovery, name it update.zip and flash it.

download the .apk files from whatever source you want.
get Appsinstaller from the market
plug the phone into your PC
mount the sd card
copy the .apk files to the sdcard (i use a folder called apps on my sdcard)
unmount sdcard
run appsinstaller
it will give you a list of all the .apk fills it found on your sdcard.
tap one to install it

If you have Kaiser, then "Yes, you can" but only if you can unpack the initrd.gz, edit the init file around line 89 and re-pack it back. And then you'd have to figure out why wif-fi and GPS are not working, why screen flips 180 degrees instead of 90, why on-screen keyboard doesn't want to show up or doesn't disappear ... etc, etc
For now, until the dust settles down, this Donut or this Eclair or even this one are far better and sexier options.

Hi
I'm using this build from NAND and seems like it's far the best 2.1 i've tried yet. What's working :
Wifi (you need to add corresponding services to android init file)
Data/Calls
Full sleep support
Audio
what not :
Camera, Bluetooth, Screen brightness, GPS (is on but can't get fix)
Moved as not ROM Development.

What NBH are you using? Do you need a new one such as the "NoMoRootfs Kaiser NBH's.zip", or can you use one of the earlier ones from here: http://www.megaupload.com/?f=SA71F1MT?
What System/Rootfs are you using? I prefer to install NAND via method 2, rather than 1.
I really love the eMMC version of the Honey Comb preview. But it comes preloaded with the "old" version of gmail. How do I put the "new" version of gmail back on it so that I get the two-paned view of my mailbox?
Correct me if I am wrong, but I am not sure the NC Honeycomb ROM is really running actual Honeycomb apps.
Well when I used the original bootable SD card Honeycomb from deeperblue, it had the fancy new version of Gmail on it. But the eMMC version:

Has the one pane gmail that looks just like the version on my phone.

Maybe there is away, I don't know. I have only installed the Dual Boot eMMC version. I thought it was the same? Even still, in that link you posted:
"H4 v2 second edition release, with a few tweaks and updates:
- System, data and cache fs will convert to EXT4, minor performance boost.
- Gingerbread Gapps added: Market, Maps, Gmail, Calendar, Contacts, Talk."
So it defaults to the Gingerbread Gmail version. Is there anapk floating around somewhere with the HC gmail? I have never actually looked.
Either way, I have no interest in HC until the AOSP is released and development continues. The current version is mostly unstable for me.

Deeper-blue's SDK port never had the 2-pane Honeycomb GMail app (emphasis on GMail). It did have the built-in EMail app that was 2-pane, but it wasn't GMail specific. It's not supported in his ROM because the SDK preview only had an API level of 10 (if I remember correctly) and level 11 APIs are required to run the Honeycomb tablet apps (GMail, Google Body etc.), especially those that support panes.
Although the apps have been torn out of the Xoom system dump ready for porting, they won't be usable on the Nook Color until there is a ROM built off of the full SDK (not just the preview) or AOSP code... whenever THAT happens...
Bummer. Thanks!

FAQ:Q: What was the difference between the standard and enhanced versions of Liberation?
A: In simple terms, Liberation Enhanced was deodexed, while the standard version was not. However, since the Gingerbread update, HTC has deodexed the /system/app folder, but has left framework odexed. I've decided to just deodex everything instead of having two separate versions with minimal differences in available storage, but vast differences in customization.
Q: Why is the Android Market outdated!?
A: If I insert the latest market, it won't update on its own, meaning more work for you. The version of the market I'm using is outdated, but auto updates. It will update in the background the first time that you run it, and should be updated within 2-5 minutes depending on your connection. You'll need to exit and re-launch the Market for the update to take effect.
Q: Some of my Google Apps (such as Gmail) are an old version, but don't show up on the Market as installed or needing an update. How do I fix this?
A: This is a bug or "feature" of the stock ROM, I'm not sure which. However, it as a very easy fix. Simply open Gmail from the Android Market. From there, scroll down to "Developer Info" and select "View Applications." This will display all of Google's apps in the market. Scroll down and update every app that shows as needing an update (they'll all display correctly from here). You may also want to disable automatic updates from here.
Q: Why isn't <insert app here> removed, I consider it to be bloat!
A: HTC did their best to put together an experience utilizing their Sense software. I left that intact as every user will get something out of it. Some use Friend Stream. Some use only Facebook/Twitter/Flickr. There is no perfect combination as every user wants something different. My goal was to present a stock experience without the carrier bloat. There are ways for you to remove unwanted apps yourself if you'd like.
Q: Why aren't there any screen shots?
A: It's a stock ROM. I've done nothing to differentiate this ROM in appearance from what your carrier/OEM ships.
How to customize Liberation BEFORE you flash:
Materials
Windows - 7-ZIP
Linux - nothing
Mac OS X - nothing (note, I have not done this on Mac OS X, so I cannot support this OS)
Steps
Download the above mentioned file(s) for Windows. You can use a different archive manager if you'd like, but my guide is based on using 7-ZIP.
On your desktop, create a folder named "Test." You can name it whatever you want, but I'll be referring to it as "Test" in this guide. If you are new at this, you need to follow the guide to the letter.
Find your downloaded ROM and extract it to the Test folder. The easiest way to do this on Windows is to open the ROM, highlight all of the folders/files (CTRL-A), copy (CTRL-C), then open the Test folder and paste (CTRL-V). Give it a minute to extract the contents.
Once you complete step three, modify the ROM to your hearts content (see details below). Once complete, proceed to step five.
Open the Test folder and highlight everything (CTRL-A). Right click and select "Add to Archive." This will open 7-ZIP's archive manager. On Linux or Mac OS X, just right-click (or equivalent) and select "Compress."
In the options menu that comes up, leave everything at default except the following. The filename should be Test.zip (change Test to whatever you want). Archive format should be zip. Compression level should be ultra. That's it.
Once done, you can copy this zip to your SD card and flash as normal. Keep in mind that I am not responsible for any changes that you made in this ROM, so make sure you Nandroid BEFORE you flash.
Specific Modifications (using the above instructions):
Ringtones - While the ROM is unzipped, open the test folder and look for /system/media/audio. Within this folder you'll see several more folders (Ringtones, Alarms, Notifications). Any should files you put here will show up in the system when you go to change your ringtone (or whatever corresponds to the folder). The benefits to this modification include; no storage space used up in internal, phone, or SD storage; ringtone works even if SD is USB mounted, no errors when the SD card corrupts or is in use. The ringtones (alarms/notifications) are stored in a partition that does NOT count towards your file storage
Replacement "stock" applications - If you use a differnent web browser (like Dolphin HD or Firefox), or a different SMS/MMS program (like Handcent or Chomp), then it is recommended that you remove the stock applications before flashing. This prevents conflicts, slowdown, memory usage, and the annoying popup where you have to constantly re-choose your default application. In these examples, you are looking for /system/app/browser.apk and mms.apk.
Add/Remove apps you don't want - Navigate to /system/app, and remove any APK files that you don't want. If you don't know what app it is, do NOT remove it
Modify Bootup Animation/Sound - Navigate to the /system/customize/resource/ folder. In there, you will see two files; VZW_bootanimation.zip an VZW_Droid.mp3. These files are the bootup animation and "Droid" noise. Simply delete the MP3 if you want a silent bootup. It really is that easy. Replace the ZIP File with another zipped animation (must give it the same name) to replace the animation with one of your own. NOTE: Make sure you verify compatibility. If unsure, don't do it.
Files needed for UOT Kitchen:
Download - framework-res.apk
Download - com.htc.resource.apk
Download - SystemUI.apk
The above files are needed for the UOT Kitchen. Ask questions in this thread if don't know how to use them. UOT Kitchen allows you to change visual elements of your phone's stock interface in a way that no launcher app ever could.

Nothing Special is the fastest and most stable ROM out. Hands Down.

Liberation is uploading right now, should be available in a few minutes. Enhanced is still cooking, might be another 30 minutes or so. As for the "cool idea," this is actually just a renamed update to an existing ROM. See below.

I'm cooking Liberation Enhanced right now, then I'll immediately start playing with the leak. We've seen a few developers upload flashable versions already. I can't commit that I'll release anything on this leak at this point. Let me play with it some and then I'll comment on it.
Both 1.0 ROMs are up based on the November OTA. Currently toying with the leak, will update.
Re-cooking then uploading the beta for 2.00 based on today's Gingerbread leak. Use at your own risk.
I agree with tincbtrar.
Liberation Enhanced v2.00 BETA, based on today's Gingerbread leak, is now up. Use at your own risk.

Downloading now, Thanks.
I'm liking some of the changes. Reboot time (after initial flash) is insanely fast. HTC Car Panel now works in both portrait/landscape, however, most other apps still don't. Feels smoother than 2.2 (and I just did clean flashes of all of my ROMs, it's definitely smoother).
Let me know what you think, but so far, feels good for a beta. I'll make it my daily driver for the next few days and see what happens.
Downloading the beta now. Already a few out there, but I know you put out good work, and it's the slimmest so far. Fingers crossed, already put the new radio on. This is great! Long live the Incredible!
Will definatly give this a try when I get home.
Only thing that stinks is the cool mods (Pulldown Toggles, EVO Camera, ETC) wont work with the beta correct? Those pulldown toggles are amazing for me (Flashlight, Bluetooth and Sounds - especially)
Once that gets sorted out Ill be using your beta. Until then maybe ill flash Liberation for fun.
Great work sir.

Just an FYI, it works fine with the existing radio. I won't be pushing users to update radio/hboot/etc. until the official release comes out.
