Are you referring to The Ultimate Droid? http://theultimatedroid.com/forum/index.php?/topic/678-the-ultimate-droid-250/

May give it a try, not sure if I like the look of the theme though :o

Ah yes that's it, saw it this morning and the features look immense (on par with Cyanogen or close to at least. Only issue was the branding plastered over various screens I guess.


Edit*

Just flashed the CFS version of the older Oxygen kernel, I wanted to see if it really was nearly as smooth as BFS as the changelog suggests.

It was not :p


BFS flashed and waiting until tonight to confirm wifi!
 
BFS (Brain **** Scheduler) came about in around 2007 when some guy was fed up with CFS (Completely Fair Scheduler) being laggy, wanted something that didn't use the ageing complex algorithms and things of CFS.

Die hards still say CFS is up to the speeds of BFS but it's clearly not, you an tell just by using it on your phone! Maybe it's a different story on Linux desktops but on the phone BFS.

At least that's the gist I got when deciding on BFS back in the DeFrost early days!
 
Fair enough, guess I chose the right one :) Any ETA on Oxygen 1.0.4? Have you tried the test rom on the oxygen updater? People are reporting it's fixed the wifi bug.

If I still get reboots and FC then I'll hunt for another rom :(

Not tried the test one, prefer to use the final version as I would then UOT the battery circle too!
 
Update!

Old (19th Nov) vorkKernel from benee works fine, no wifi issues, phone feels a bit more nippier too?

Get the BFS version here and verify my findings please!

Have flashed. I haven't been having wifi problems so can't comment on that. But phone does seem nippier, Oxygen just got even faster:D

LeeDroid is the best and smoothest Sense ROM and I'd go back to that but then I'm back at square one with Oxygen being smoother and lag free in use :p

Are you serious? I find LeeDroid awful! It lags like hell, the default web browser doesn't bring up websites quickly.

I'm trying to get rid of it, but I'm having a nightmare.
 
There's got to be something wrong either with your phone, config or ROM if it really is that bad on your phone :/ It's the first report of Leedroid being that bad too that I have read.

As khaaan! says, something is wrong here. Are you using the non A2SD version?

Also why are you having a nightmare trying to get rid? Just install another ROM? I get the feeling this bad experience is user error more than anything.
 
I was using the non A2SD version.

To be honest this is my first time doing anything with my Desire. It just didn't run well at all, it was horrible. I followed the instructions as per the thread on xdaforums and had nothing but trouble with slowness, constant long pauses when going back to the home screen from an app.

It could have been a poor config with memory card, I honestly don't know.

I am running oxygen 1.0.3 now, and I really like it.
 
I want to get my phone on Gingerbread for the CRT screen off animation, that is pretty much the only reason I think that I must have Gingerbread :p
 
Contacts are synced via gmail if you logged into your account surely? Phone is called "Phone" :p

reefoid said:
And that is?

I see its getting a bit touchy on XDA. One person has expressed a wish to have Gingerbread soon and he's immediately nailed down as if he's held a gun to AdamG's head to hurry him up.

Check out the Nexus S youtube videos, plenty of em, when the screen goes to sleep it turns off like a old CRT monitor.

Yeah, people are getting fed up of random people posting about how soon they want updates, how soon they want new stuff etc :p
