I'm running R9 But waiting for R10. I always was a fan of the Stock Android Look.

I like TW 1.6, minus lots of the pre-installed software.

Yea i was a fan of twiz look too,but later i found out that twiz is slow compared to galaxy.Try using MetaMorph to change themes,not all themes work on behold2 but i found one that works on Galaxy rom and twiz 1.6 rom called "AlienAqua" it changes everything incuding the dialer,im sure there is more themes out that work on bh2,you will need older version of MetaMorph cuz new one dont work with old themes.

I really like the galaxy builds, and have had the best performance on R7, but I really like having vibrate so I've stuck with the no Twiz roms. If Take5 doesn't have better battery life than I'm getting now on WarHeads, then I'll probably switch to R10.

Probably why he said he's not going to do another one
Take5 is also going to be his last No_Twiz rom for the same reason.

go with r11 r10 was full of bugs. r11 is the new release and you can also update to kernel revision 6 here:

Well, I'm using behold 2 1.6 no Twiz, warheads, with kernel 3, twlauncher.apk not home++. after cycling the battery from full to empty 3 days in a row, with an average of 16 hrs for charge, I'm no at 16 hrs and 25% battery left. moderate use. Can't wait to see the take5.

Edit: Also, wanted to mention that I close apps by pressing the end button and not the back button. Learned that when you did it with the back button the apps didn't really close down. I also make sure that the phone is sleeping properly by not locking it when it is in landscape mode.
