Fine it is nod.gif...well, love the UI in CM7 and its on Ginger...and like you said, just need few apps and can get Sense like interface smile.gif..your Desire is on CM7, right? brows.gif

yup... tried out Sense 2.0 ROMs as well... but not really that impressed with it... the instant boot is nice, but features like Locations is not really that special, considering that Google Maps 5.0+ supports caching... and Google Navigation is free... HTCSense.com would take up quite a lot of data traffic, not a good thing since i dun ve unlimited data...

so in the end settled with vanilla instead... used to avoid it since it can't integrate the FB pics with contacts as nicely as Sense... but an app solved the problem (Syncmypix if u re interested), and it's even better since the pic will stay in Gmail Contacts... Sense weather + clock widget? no problem, Fancy Widget is the one... the scrolling contacts widget? Photo Contact Widget has it covered... HTC's calendar widget? Android Agenda Widget is more than capable to replace it...

and imho this is how Android suppose to be... open source, customization, flexibility... everyone's home screen looks different from another person's home screen... that's wat make Android unique compared to iOS and WP7...

rumoured May 2011... exclusive to T-Mobile in US...

in another word, yup, it's a GSM phone, not CDMA like HTC Evo...

damn, HTC sure knows how to build a super phone... laugh.gif

btw, typo, should be 4.3"... tongue.gif

Words bro...really that what open-source is all about...flexi & customization at max, all just within the fingertip...and yes, all the apps that you mentioned is truly what i find can replaced what lacks on Vanilla compared to Sense smile.gif...HTC Sense really does take a lot of traffic and by means, also the battery...been changing my ROM everyday...even my friends now are quite interested with Android (and yes, they got iP4)...all the customization seems interesting to them compared to what they can do with their iP4 laugh.gif


Added on February 4, 2011, 5:28 pmWell, before this also got people debating about why DHD spec is lower than HTC HD7, though HD7 is way cheaper than DHD laugh.gif

in wat way is HD7 better than DHD? besides the kick-stand??

we re looking at:

DHD vs HD7
MSM8255 vs QSD8250
1.5GB ROM vs 512MB ROM
768MB RAM vs 576MB RAM
8MP cam vs 5MP cam
microSD vs 16GB Flash
HSDPA 14.4Mbps vs HSDPA 7.2Mbps
HSUPA 5.7Mbps vs HSUPA 2Mbps
(ok, the last 2 is CPU limitation)

honestly HD7 looks more like a Desire with DHD case running WP7...

that's becuz both are HTC and both are 4.3"... laugh.gif

technically speaking HD7 is not really a successor of HD2... i would only classify it as an update/refresh instead... both are running QSD8250...

that's becuz they noob... sweat.gif

HTC is the largest smartphone maker in the world lor...

and honestly LG's Android phone lineup is pretty solid... Optimus One is basically a small Nexus One, which Google was involved in the design, and is one of the few phones that will get GBread... Optimus 2X is the first dual core smartphone, and Optimus Black is probably the thinnest smartphone in the making...
