***** ROM Reviews *****

Review by Kirch21
Initial Setup: Both sprecovery and clockworkmod are supported. This ROM is in the form of an update.zip. Initial boot was very fast. All of my apps (20)/contacts/etc. synced in right around 8 minutes. Facebook synced just fine. I did have one issue with 3G not connecting on the initial boot, but a quick reboot fixed the problem.

Speed and Responsiveness:

-Stock Kernal: ROM ran very well on the stock kernel (7 slot peak at 800mhz). Very responsive when opening apps and scrolling is very smooth. Quadrant scored at 1153 on stock kernel.

-P3Droid 1ghz LV: As always I noticed a boost in performance with a bit higher kernel. Benchmark scored 1412 with this kernel. After a few days, it still has been running flawlessly.

Features: Auto CPU control (SetCPU app becomes optional), Hot Keys for Recovery, Reboot, Shutdown, and Test Menu, Script Helper, AD Block. These features standout to me, but there are many more features that can be seen on the release page.

Bugs found: As for now this ROM has been 100% bugless.

Theme-ability: This ROM has many themes available for it including X-Theme, Smoked Glass, and NexTheme. Other themes are available as well but these being the most popular give theme-ability 5/5 for Bugless Beast 0.4. I tested out all three themes and all installed smoothly. I noticed no decrease in performance with any of the themes.

Hows it Compare?
I found this ROM to be the best I have ran to date. It lives up to its name: Bugless Beast. Overall I give this ROM 5/5. There was nothing about this ROM I could find to dock any points from it.
