So, I have been bouncing back and forth between Skyraider and CM7 for quite some time now. I like how snappy CM7 is. It's a great ROM, and themes are a nice touch. I also like some things about Skyraider.
That said, I can't stand the wifi tether on CM7. It is too splotchy. I will have perfect signal and be able to browse the internet with ease on the DINC, my ASUS Transformer (tethered to the DINC) will be timing out when trying to connect to a site. Then, a couple minutes later, all of a sudden I'll be able to load the page on the Transformer in no time at all.
Running Skyraider, I never had these problems. If my connection was good on my DINC, anything I tethered it to would connect just fine as well. If I was having any connection issues at all, I knew it had nothing to do with my wifi tether, because my DINC had poor signal as well.
I don't care about sense. I don't use it anyway. I run Go Launcher or ADW.
Another little thing I liked about Skyraider was the night mode toggle you could add to the notification pane. This was perfect for watching Netflix without having my backlit capacitive buttons glaring in my eyes. Regrettably I don't see that function anywhere in CM7.
What I am looking for: A stable ROM, with or without sense, that has no tethering issues. I am primarily going to use my DINC as a hotspot for my Transformer, so that last one is a MUST. I would like it to be fairly snappy, but I know that I am on aging hardware here, so I am not expecting too much. That night mode toggle would be nice, too.
Any suggestions?
