As an amateur programmer, i know the hard work that must go into the stuff that nochem has done, and for that simple fact, anyone that steals his code is not alright in my book. As much as i would like to try his roms, until i see some type of apology on his behalf (which i havent even looked for, this is really the first time ive seen why his rep is so bad), i wont be loading up any of his roms. I know it may seem like my lost, but at least my morals are still intact.

notochem did not give NFSFAN the chance to replay. He baned him right away from the forum

Not true.

Although he did not credit me for the help, I certainly did not have a problem with it.

However, I must now regrettably enforce the consequences. Although the forum recommends an instant-ban for this type of offense, as it is "warez", It appears that a discussion between moderators have reached the consensus to be lenient, and that the appropriate consequence for this type of offense is 2-week ban for regular users, 3-weeks for "those who should have known better". Effective immediately, NFSFAN's ROMS have been pulled due to their illegal content, and all users who post content of this nature will be banned for 3-weeks. This is of course, acceptable to the alternative, a DMCA takedown notice sent to PPCGeeks.

Loaded up this ROM last night on my girl's phone. She has to have WM 6.5 as she loves the Titanium interface and the scrolling contacts built in.

I added a few things, taskbar, battery app, etc. Very nice ROM...quick and responsive. I haven't found anything wrong with this ROM yet. Worked great!

I've tried tons of 6.5 ROMs and it seems I always find something, but not in this one.

I have one minor issue with this latest release:

In the previous release, the slide to answer always came up fast and accurate, which I LOVED.

Now..it shows the push to answer buttons for a second or two, THEN switches to slide to answer/ignore. Until it switches I can't answer the phone, and the actual slide itself is now not fluid..the animation seems to be choppy.

In previous release it was much smoother.

This doesn't always occur, sometimes it does go straight to slide to answer/ignore. But point being the behavior of slide to answer in this release seems a bit wonky now.

I have tried NFSFANs roms, and they are pretty high quality. For those PPCgeeks purists that want to continue to hate on him, try DCDs roms. Pretty comparable, actually; 6.5 that works.

Just tried out NFSFAN's rom and WOW. I think it's the best 6.5 I've used! Very nice!
