Root Razr developers

Out of curiosity, what kind of changes are you looking at making?

Truth be told, I'm VERY happy stock and rooted (with ad-free). While another ROM would be great, I cannot say if I would ever flash it. The exception is a stock ROM where the camera .apk has an option to use a physical key to take the photo... I'd flash that (or at least the modified camera .apk in a heartbeat.

Are their any developers here who own a razr? Id like to get a group together and make a rom from the stock firmware from phandroid.
I started working months back but decided it was to much work for myself at the time.

If your enterested in a modified stock rom to be developed, press the thanks button.
(to get a rough idea of community thoughts)

Ahh, I forgot you had a RAZR, buddy.

I don't plan to have mine long, but let me know if/when you want some help. ;)

I had an idea of porting some features from the atrix hd. (launcher, weather, circles, theme, ect) (already have the atrix hd launcher on my razr with circles widget, looks and handles good) improve battery life and speed. Improve blur as it should be (bring back the original gingerbread blur?)
"original tools" adblocker, cpu controller, memory controller?
Add a more droid feeling than it is? (already rebuilt droid x live wallpaper for 3.0+ xhdpi devices)

This is what it has come down to. All i see in the custom roms are allll the same source or unstable. We need more stable roms than experimental. Once we establish a stable custom base. (port sense or other fun stuff?)

The droid bionic already got cm10 and yet where still under the stone.
So, my thinking... Instead of rom after rom of bugs. Stick to something that works, get a group together, build something that works.

Tonight the Droid Razr Nx rom open beta will be available tonight in the bionx custom rom forums.
It is highly suggested that only experienced flashers and people who are interested in helping the custom rom community in finding bugs and giving suggestions flash.

In order to be in the beta, the following must be met...
Droid razr running ics (it hasnt been determined yet on if a certain build is required)
Rooted
Boot strap 2.1 installed (safe system enabled and backups were made before flash)
And the understanding that you are responsible for any damage done to your razr if any damage were to accur. My droid razr is an active device so my work is reflected on my daily use and community feedback.

The announcment of an active link will be made at the time of release. Further details will reside than.

Untill than, have a good afternoon.
