I am making this thread for a couple reasons. 1) to clear up the 1.6 no twiz as someone suggested and 2) to get an accurate list of what people want in the 1.6 no twiz/galaxy rom.
i was thinking of taking a stab at this but before I start I would like to see what everyone would like to see in this rom. :-D

Thanks....I believe I'm the one who mad the suggestions. :).... I know I really like the functionality of the Galaxy Rom and have been running since R1 but really it came to a point to where I needed the vib working so I made the switch to warheads. You know sometimes these threads get out of hand (Please don't bite my head off) but if people would just spend the time to use the search button, it really would clean up a lot of the questions that people ask over and over again, Yes I'm at fault too sometimes but it does help....

LOL...Okay:

1. Vibrate
2. Stock Behold 2 Camera with full features as with 1.5 Stock BH2.
3. Good Battery Life.
4. New Boot, Phone, Kernel with A2SD just like Warheads, I like being able to partition my SD card from the phone.
5. Maybe Home++, or maybe Darkstar.
6. Galaxy Dialer, Contacts with the Favorites tab.
7. Fully functional Root (Some people keep losing Root)

LOL, all I can think of at the moment.....

Thanks.

I can Fix Root!, but it Mean we have to go back to Cat ( cat /sdcard/*** > /system/*** )

However, I can Fix the Recovery so people can Push files to system if that would help..
I've found that the behold 2 don't like the rw access being on with root for app.. I've been trying everything I can think of to fix this issue, the only thing I've not trying is to fixing the permissions in the Fota_init.rc in the ramdisk... which is worth a shot at this point.

1. Vibrate > Only using BH2 Frameworks atm
2. Stock Behold 2 Camera with full features as with 1.5 Stock BH2. > ?
3. Good Battery Life. > LMAO wait till Official release I geuss
4. New Boot, Phone, Kernel with A2SD just like Warheads, I like being able to partition my SD card from the phone. > ?
5. Maybe Home++, or maybe Darkstar. > Contradicts your stock lol
6. Galaxy Dialer, Contacts with the Favorites tab. > FC on Calls using the BH2 Rom, however making calls work just fine :D & if you don't mind hitting the End button, you can call the person right back
7. Fully functional Root (Some people keep losing Root) > Read the MSG I posted above regarding this :D

LOL, all I can think of at the moment.....

Thanks.

LOL, sorry should explained a few thing better.

2. Stock Behold 2 Camera with full features as with 1.5 Stock BH2. > I meant just the stock camera, Like you have on Warheads.
3. Good Battery Life. ......Heck even the Stock BH2 to me had bad battery life, but I believe most touchscreen devices have this problem, this is not on you BH_Man, I really don't mind plugging in during the day. I was just referring to everyone in general is all....:)

5. Maybe Home++, or maybe Darkstar. > I was just saying I like both themes, since most of the launchers you put in your ROM's are available for free, maybe just release it without one and leave it to the us to have a choice...:)

I think in the end I can just use Warheads...I'm very happy with it. Just was looking for the functionality for Galaxy, the mean thing is just what I like in general.

Thanks BH for all you efforts you put into what you do for the BH2 community.

5) Home++ is only a launcher, and Darkstar is only a theme!

Actually, once I updated the kernel practically all the bugs disappeared.:D

Home++ is awesome!

Ya I like Home++ but even after updating the kernel, it still had the same bugs. Also my phone wouldnt sleep at all on Warheads so I went back to Dots till the hybrid comes out! I don't know maybe it was a bad flash, I'm sure if I were to do it all over again it might work, but I'm happy with DOTS for right now! :D

I bit the bullet two days ago. Drained the battery & just reformatted my card in the phone & used 0 swap & 320 for ext partition like BH suggested & then reflashed warheads & then the new kernel. I then removed the updated Home ++ & replaced it with GDE Home. Amazing difference. A lot less force closes, sleeps correctly & much better battery life (going on 24 hours with 28% left. WiFi is on with no sleep & LCD is on maximum along with GPS. So far so good.
