ENJOY!!!!!
 
I ran Tiamat on Virtuous Unity with no problems. Of course I was experimenting, but it was still stable. I ask because I'm comfortable around 1700mhz and CPU Master doesn't have any decent governors.

I appreciate the heads up.


Not this again..... I guess you could try, but it's still really dangerous. I'm not trying anymore haha

I agree. This ROM is smooth and fast.
I had a couple FCs of random apps and a couple Sense crashes in the beginning, but that seemed to have leveled out. Haven't had a FC or crash in quite a bit now.

One Question:
I am not familiar with the changes facebook made recently, but now HTC is asking for validation and permissions to post in ways I don't remember seeing before ("Allow HTC Sense to post as me"?! WTF?)
I keep getting a notification inthe pull-down. Anyone know how to stop it?

If you download screen off and lock (free app from the market) it will give you the crt lockscreen animation. Just select old TV from the long animations list. It also has lockscreen lock and unlock sounds if you are into that.
Just create the directory media/audio/notifications and put the sounds in there to use them. Or hey, y'all got root, just put them in the root system folder under the same directory. This app will also help your power button from breaking early.
Hope that helps! ;)

Well, I think there are a couple of problems.

1. I don't seem to be able to get any HTC widgets. That is, when I go to "Add Widget" in the personalize section, and select "Browse all HTC widgets" I get nothing.
2. Also I don't get the HTC quick launcher (perhaps going along with #1)
3. I still have the old Android Market. I would have thought I would have gotten the new one.
4. In the camera app, after applying an effect, I get some very strange purple, green, and black imagery on the top 1/3 of the screen. Makes any effects pretty much unusable as near as I can tell.

I dunno. I feel like this ROM has the potential to be pretty cool, but there are still some quirks.

I like it, but I don't like it. I like to hit the physical power button to turn my phone off. Thanks for the feedback though. You deserve a thanks.

I guess you're right about them going along with each other. I don't have an option to log into HTC HUB and here's what my Quick Launch screen looks like. It works, but there are no icons. When you set it up, you have to click on the left side of the screen where nothing is and add apps. It looks decent with just text, but I do like full functionality. All in all, it's a great ROM though.

my previous post, I did eventually get the HTC widgets, and the quick launcher. Though the icons on the quick launcher don't work as shown in the screenshot by KrippyKreme.

I've also found a couple of other things. My screen won't turn off automatically. I have no idea why. I have to literally press the power button every time to turn the display off. It's chewing up my battery like crazy too. I've checked, and rechecked the settings. And I rebooted the phone this morning. Not sure what's going on, but that, for me, is a deal breaker.

Sounds like a bad install. I would try again before giving up on this one. I'm enjoying it.
