Summary:
More is not always better. My goal is to slim this Rom down as much as possible focus on performance and keep it lookin pretty . Overall performance is directly impacted by the removal of bloatware, zipaligned apk's and overclocked underolted kernel. This is how I like my rom it may not necessarily be how everyone likes it but the beauty of Android is options. By removing the bloatware adding custom apps and baking the theme right into the Rom I think you'll find that it saves a lot of steps and time.
If there was any one release I would want you to download it would be Redemption Rom 2.0. Trust me it's worth wiping and starting from square one it's by far the most complete release focussed on performance and the most aesthetically pleasing Sense Rom I've seen to date (I know I say this every time lol). Main Theme credit goes to manup456, ghostrida, SoCalMiles and deficitism

Donations:
There's has been a few people that have asked me about donations so I added the link in my signature. The Redemption Rom from it's inception has been my personal endeavor to get the most ascetically pleasing, stable and fast Rom possible for my day to day use. I was so pleased with the outcome that I wanted to share it with the community. I did not create all this content. I've pieced together some of the best additions to the Android community as well as provided my own content. On the one hand this project is a hobby and I find it very enjoyable but it does take A LOT of time to do everything you see here. If you feel that my work warrants a donation by all means feel free it will help keep me caffeinated on those all nighters but by no means are you obligated in any way. At the end of the day I find satisfaction in the feedback from all of you that enjoy my work, so thank you for using my Rom!

Have you fixed the internal memory problem yet, lou? I need the music app to recognize the internal memory. A rom that doesn't do this isn't using an integral part of the phone.

There actually isn't anything wrong with the Rom reading internal memory in the emmc. The issue has to do with the 3rd party music app I used Music Mod 1.8 which is also found on CyanogenMod. Most 3rd party media applications don't read what's in emmc koush has modded the media scanner for cm6 to enable this I just haven't gotten around to including it in this Rom yet.
As I told you on XDA easy fix would be to adb push the stock HTC music app/widget found in the "removed apps" zip I provided from recovery to /system/app and you're golden those will read the music you have stored on the phone memory crisis averted .

Royally sorry, lou. I just got that question answered earlier on xda.
I have everything ready to do this and have rooted using unrevoked. My question is, when it says "flash kernel of your choice" what exactly does this mean? Don't want to start this and not be fully prepared. I tried searching but couldn't find much info on this part. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you wanted to load a custom kernel other than the stock kernel that the Rom has that would be the point at which you would flash it. The stock kernel on this Rom is very good it should be more than sufficient for you. I use it in combination with SetCPU and the performance is great as well as battery life.
