I guess I quadruple agree lol... I've been running Deck for a few weeks now and it is great; VVM and GPS fix worked flawlessly. I just really miss Sense. Every time I look at my gf's Shift I almost switch back. I've installed a lot of apps to get as close to Sense as possible but it is just not the same. I really just can't believe how far behind stock android is from Sense with some very basic features and functions imo. I had to download:
- Beautiful Widgets to get my clock and weather widget back (really nice since you can easily customize the widget)
- SyncMyPics to get Facebook contact pics back
-TouchPal Dialer to regain the ability to dial a persons name to search right in the dialer (completely RIDICULOUS that this is not a a default Android feature!!)
One small bonus has been that I can use the wiimote controller app now that the Sense bluetooth issue is removed. I'd have to say I definitely like it better than CM7 but I may be headed back to a Sense rom soon, Gingerbread alone is not worth it and I haven't noticed as extreme improvements to battery life as you guys have been posting.
But a great stable rom. Great job DECK!!!
