Re: [ROM] [12/27/09] Juicy Rhodium_W R7 (21887) [SENSE UI] [XDA_UC]

Some thoughts:

After flashing to R7 (and expecting R8 within a couple of days) I decided to try a couple other ROMs for the first time ever. First I went to MightyMike's Impact. Interesting, but highly unstable. Juicy was right about 6.5.1-3 not being stable enough yet. And I don't think SenseUI plays totally nice with it either. Lots of random pauses and delays in the OS, some things plain just didn't work right. I do like the look and feel though.

From there I tried the SsS ROM. Looks pretty out of the box, but it too has its issues. For starters SenseUI often puts the tabs under the bottom softkeys, which requires a restart of SenseUI to fix. Second, it has the GSM phone canvas, so no three-way calling. Third, well there was a third, I just can't remember it lol.

Overall, R7 is the best IMO, and I'm back using it now.

LOL. If it was, I wouldn't yearn for lower memory consumption of other roms, since everything does work in his rom.

I think this topic belongs right here in this thread because it pertains to the build at hand.

SsS has no 3 way calling?? Of course it has 3 way calling, just made one. Not sure what you mean about the tabs, never had that issue.

By the way, anyone please upload the black default background that's behind all juicy tabs to this thread for me - it should be in the wallpapers folder... I don't have it anymore.

it looks like this:

I went from Juicy R5 to SsS and can make 3 way calls and I have never had the issue with the tabs under the softkeys. So far Juicy and SsS have been the best 2.5 roms I've tried so far!!

SsS is mostly great, but it does have issues with SenseUI. I'm kinda surprised no one else saw the tabs under the softkeys, but it didn't happen to me until day three of using the ROM. And people have made 3 way calls? It didn't work for me then I switched back to R7 this morning and it worked without issue. Either way I did encounter severe slow downs that took 2-3 minutes to self correct on numerous occasions since I flashed SsS (i.e. SensUI would stay at a black screen, eventually show the tabs), never saw that with Juicy R1-R7. Ultimately that is why I found SsS unusable, not because of the 3 way but because I all too often wanted to throw my phone against a wall lol.

Explain it for me, you press the add call button, enter a number, then do what exactly to add the call? No matter what I tried I couldn't get the calls to connect. Eventually I gave up and flashed R7 where it worked first try. On the off chance I see this phone canvas again I'd like to know what to press. Thanks!

I just do what I've always done to conference call... While in a call, hit the send button, dial the number and hit send again. No problems.

Dudes, somebody please send me the .png file with the default black background. It takes a second.
