Root [ROM] Desire ROM 11 X1 Release - Sense UI for Droid

yea, i want to run it at the stock 550, but isnt setcpu a paid app?

Yes, the paid version allows the developer to continue work on it. It is a pretty good program, even if you don't want to OC, it lets you make profiles for standby, which should greatly improve your battery life.

It is available to XDA members for free, though if you enjoy it, I highly recommend purchasing it.

The Rom needs at least 950 to run. The Rom is for the desire processor.

That doesn't make Sense (lol). The Desire processor is 1GHz btw. The ROM runs regardless of CPU frequency, though since it is still a work in progress, the additional horsepower couldn't hurt.

i would be all over this rom in a heartbeat when its cleaned up. i love htc sense and esp the widgets. i came from the eris and thats the only part i miss. I would also love to try that new friendstream seems pretty cool.

There are now a few performance tweaks in the original thread on alldroid. They're mostly memory tweaks, as the major issue is that Rosie restarts all the time. These should be addressed in the X2 release.

Sense or not...that's the fact. I know it's 1ghz...5mhz more. Close enough as to be a non issue. 995 is the speed in the currently released kernel.

950 is the speed in the current kernel. It's clocked high because they haven't finished optimizing the ROM yet. I can guarantee you the final version will run just fine at default speeds.

Your logic that since the Desire runs at 1GHz, we have to match it to run this ROM on Droids is flawed and wrong. How is it that we ran the original Nexus port on our Droids, even before the advent of overclocking?

Unless you have some proof, I suggest you stop spreading this around. Thanks.

I suggest you kindly work on your forum etiquette. :)

I don't disagree with your premise that further optimization is likely.

I have read every post in the forums at alldroid since day one on this rom. I am only repeating the reason given by the developers.

It is your choice to believe or not believe, go read or not read...but to accuse me in a rude manner of "spreading this around" with the innuendo being I am spreading falsehoods is not polite.

Sorry if I came off as rude. Not my intent.

I did read all of Greek35T, thegeektern, and birdman's comments in that thread as well. They are the only developers, and none of their posts implied that this ROM had to be overclocked.

However, I did not read all 37 pages, so I may have missed something. Still, if the developer didn't say it, and it was a user statement, I'm not quite sure. You may have to take it with a grain of salt.

Fair enough:D

I did read all 37 pages as they came up...I am a nerd:cool:

I have a good memory for these types of things and recall it being one of the three developer's comment...but like anyone, I could have been confused when reading quickly.

Can't wait for the X2 release:)

Ok im new to all this. What does this sense ui do exactly? Those screen shots are they what it will look like on the moto droid?

Sense UI is the user interface developed by HTC and is normally present on their phones. It's just a flashier more graphically pleasing user interface. Think of your Droid mimicking an Eris, but with a more recent version of the UI.
