Hey guys and gals. Now that we have some more people who possibly have root on their phones and playing around with all the toys we have floating out there I figured this would be a good time to poke about and find out what people find to be must haves! I would like to keep this as clean as possible and see how everyone is fairing on trying new things out. So if you could please lay your post out something to the effect of:
So far here is my list of must haves!
ROM:
I've tried the stock rooted ROM that comes on the phone leaned out with footprints, cityid etc removed. Runs and acts the same as the day you got your phone no noticable difference besides the apps not being there.
pmf v1.1 YASR - It doesn't have the Sense UI but still has enough Sense elements to keep it interesting. Seemed to me to slow down over the week or so that I used it. May have been the undervolted kernel I'm using still haven't decided. I liked the vanilla looks and performance was a touch better than plain old Sense. I really suggest everyone check this ROM out. It comes with Launcher Pro and is VERY customizable from 1-7 screens etc.
Skyraider 1.8 Beta Sense+Froyo - Don't have much to say about this except like every other 2.2 ROM the camera doesn't work. But unlike some of the other Froyo ROMs the GPS etc is working. Performance seems a touch faster than the pmf ROM with the exception that it scores ~40 in linpack and mid 700's in quadrant where the stock ROM scored ~5-6/~500 respectively.
Apps:
ROM Manager, paid version.
Titanium Backup (Still debating buying it or not)
IncrediLight, works great and doesn't break your camera flash!
Kernels:
Hydra Undervolted/ Stock speed Kernel - increased my battery life over the day by about 2 hours. No difference in speed of apps etc, but I think this may be what caused my phone to slow down over a week or so of use.
So guys let me see what you have been messing with! I think other would find your 'reviews' of what you've been using helpful so they get an idea of what they may want to try better!
