This is not my rom i pulled it from XDA but it is one of the cleanest, fastest roms i have ever used. I want to make sure everyone gets a chance to try this rom out. I will be posting updates as i find them but bare with me because i am tethering off my phone for internet but i keep a very close eye on this rom so i should stay on top of it. I will also be posting common problems and fixes that i find fromt eh XDA thread. I Hope everyone enjoys this rom as much as i do. This is his infromation from the Xda Thread with my added Flare

Q&A

Q:I get a force closure before i setup the phone, is there a fix?
A:YES! We have a special fix thanks to a local member of the xda community, although he stands for his Droid Incredible, he was extremely nice enough to fix this fc for us. THANKS ALLOT; to fix this problem, follow these few steps:
Flash Rom
Reboot
Be sure to Follow Through on Setup
Download jermaine's fix from the end of this post and place on root of sd
Boot into recovery
Wipe Cache, then Dalvik
Flash his fix
Reboot, and your set

Q: Why doesn't MMS work?
A: Due to a bad apn, stock messaging app still doesn't allow us to send a Multimedia Message, we do have a work around for the moment. Included in the rom is GO SMS, use it as your stock messaging app. This will allow you to send MMS messages, ten fold. Go to stock messaging app and turn off notifications, and setup up Go SMS to your likeings, and tada! Send your favorite picture to whoever now! ENjoy

Q:Phone Not Charging on Wall Outlet or PC.
A:Try Installing the Snaps Kernel That should fix the problem.

Q:Location and Security under setting wont open.
A:That is why you can turn GPS on in the notification bar.

Q:My Camera does not work
A: you need to update to the newest version of the rom

Q:Wifi Hotspot is not working.
A: it sometimes works other times it dose not but i am using it right now to post this thread.

Q:What Kernal should be used for this rom.
A: A AOSP kernel should be used i personaly use cm6-snapsv7.5-havs925_signed

Q: I am getting very bad screen tears
A: This normaly happens when you are using a sense kernel instead of a AOSP kernel

Q:How do you use HTC Sync on this Rom
A:This is not a Sense Rom so i dont think it is included.

Q:Ware can i find diffrent Kernels?
A: Follow this link Kernel/Rom Downloads

Q:MMS does not work
A: It does work and many users have confirmed it if your is not try turning your phone off and pulling the battery for 5 mins. Reboot then try sending a mms again it should work.

nice im just stuck on myns warm rls5...lol pretty much perfect in my books.
 
Im still sketched from the last time i used a liquid port rom, my phone sketched out worse than lindsay lohan on a court date.

Maybe some day...
 
I love this rom. I hope they keep up development on it.

Sent from my HTC Evo 4g
 
I liked the ROM a lot but last time I used it, it kept rebooting when I would lock or unlock. It didn't matter which Kernel I used. I tried several. But still very good looking ROM.
 
Stuck on Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo, however some of the features look very cool. But I do use my 4G quite a bit, so that is a must.

Yea it is still doing that from time to time but the speed of the rom is enough for me to keep using it.

They are pushing out updates quite quickly so soon we should have a perfectly working acer liquid port

Oh, don't get me wrong. I really liked it. It was fast and just great looking, but can't get past the reboots. Once they get that solved I'll be all over it again. Haven't been in the thread in a while but last I checked Sacs didn't think it was a problem with the ROM, so who knows if he will get to that.
 
well there are alot of people post all the bugs with it. so he knows whats wrong and what needs to be fixed he should be pushing a new update out here soon. i normally only get a the reboots when on a phone call and i hit the power button to turn the screen off other then that i cant remember that last time it just shut off randomly.

But i plan on keeping this thread 100% updated so as soon as he drops a update i will add it here.
 
ok guys there should be a update within the next couple days. Reading the XDA thread the fixes are as followed.

Fixes
1.MMS not sending
2. Freezing problem
3. Many other FC issues.

i will post it as soon as it is uploaded
 
I've been eyeball'n this one for a few days now but there are too many features I use regularly that aren't working yet (4G, HDMI, Bluetooth, data connection delays, etc...). It's good to see active development on this one though because when they get the major bugs fixed this this is gonna be a contender! Love the eye candy on this ROM.
 
There are only 2 things that dont work that is HDMI and 4g. Everything else u listed works fine. honestly i would give it a shot if you like it. i love it and my wife loves it. Its def worth trying
