[Nexus S Android Development] qtwrk:
I am not its developer , but however i am moderator in its official forum and may act as representative here around XDA for DianXin ROM.:o

so i can't answer all doubts or something , but however i will relay your problem , your doubts , your suggestions , your ideas or anything you wanna say about this ROM to its developer.:D

about update , it has update every 2 weeks ,in friday (one week for stable version such as 2.3.7 , other week for test version as 4.0.3 for some devices), but i have a job that 08:30 AM to the 09:00 PM, basically i am outta of home all day.:mad:

download and upload take about 6 hours , so i can not finish it until saturday evening. but you can use "system update" app to update;)

============================

(thank jozef710i so much for this video)

these 2 videos were recorded in HTC Desire HD and HTC Desire, which are still in 2.3.7 , but for us Nexus S has ICS ROM

====================================================

if you see any untranslated, chinese part/app or anything , please point out where or what app is it ,it would be best if you post a screenshot , so it can be translated.

thanks

====================================================

i know you guys may think it looks like MIUI , but i assure you it's totally different ROM nor MIUI-based modification , and if you have time , please read first pages of all these kind people's reports and feelings about this ROM.

what i think is , every and any ROM is like child to all of us in Android community , and please don't think it is bad or ugly or whatever negative expression you can think of , because nothing is perfect , as MIUI , it is now 71 weeks old , and this one is only 3 weeks old, and for now , MIUI 4.0 does have problems and bugs as well as this one, it has some problems or bugs, but that's how all ROM start, right ?

we are just like bunch of daddies (mommies) here , to help developer to raise (improve) thier child (ROM) , they need you help and report!

=================================================================================

DX ROM introduction translated as requested (this translation almost got me killed -_-!!! be honest , i don't know what i am saying now...)

点心 (Dian Xin) in chinese, when put these 2 words together it means small food like cake or snack , in this case related with Android (cupcake, donut, eclair, froyo, gingerbread, honeycomb and ice cream sandwich), but , when separates them , the first word means "target" or "aim" , and second means "heart"

and put them together also can be explained "aimed/targeted your heart" (don't get me wrong , doesn't mean wanna shoot you :p)

it means design and make ROM to do/be what you want, what you prefer.

Based on ASOP 4.0.3

Seek high quality, make it an useful, utility ROM

Take account of both users experience and performance, let users joy using thier device.

Product characteristic

Stable

many tester tested with no freeze problem.

Duration

smart battery-saving scenario makes phone more durable

many scenarios to bring new experience

Useful

quick, precise and interesting comunication, enjoy the phone

powerful device controller, daily use more easy and simple

changeable UI, mobile life rich and colorful.
