Most of so called "development" is copying other people's work, changing some icons and other images and zipping it up and making a cwm file. There are very few unique and useful mods.

Once some most glaring problems with a phone are fixed, development's job is finished. The rest is photoshopping and winzipping.

I say HTC One has already recevied almost enough development support. Volume button wake is implemented to fight the stupid power button placement problem. Most ROMs have already removed the annoying menu bar. Once custom kernels solve the rest of the problems like slow charging, what else is needed?
[One (M7) General] nitinvaid:
I am coming from s3 as i lost my device was thinking to get one this time.

I am also worried about its development.

But i am sure it will get cm rom but i dont think it will get as much aosp rom as galaxy series

And proper development means aosp rom development not some mods and theming
[One (M7) General] KidCarter93:
It doesn't matter if the One has less AOSP ROMs than the S4 because as long as they're both high end phones and both have high quality ROMs to choose from, what else matters?

The One will get plenty of AOSP ROMs anyway. Any phone can be used for this following example;

CM is usually one of the first ROMs to be released on a phone, whether that be officially or unofficially. Once CM hits the device, a lot more ROMs appear because a lot of people base their ROMs right off of CM.

Even if CM isn't one of the first ROMs, the only ROMs we'll really see before it are stock based ROMs just like we have in this forum.

Quality NOT quantity!

And proper development doesn't mean AOSP because it wouldn't exactly be hard for me to make a ROM from an existing AOSP ROM. Just add a few simple features and done. That's not proper development in the slightest.

You need root permission to delete anything in /system/

try adb root

Hello,

I'm looking for a MOD for actual FXP 10.0, using NFC with lookscreen and screen off. It should be controlled like in slim-bean-Rom.

Is there any implemantation?

Is there a manual or similar to do this by myself?

Hello guys,

Today we have numerous roms and mod's for our Xperia Play, however, with so many options, is a little bit difficult to discover out which set is best for our smartphone. To make more easy the search for the best rom, mod or setting, I propose for all to share yours benchmark results(Antutu), along with those roms, kernel, mod's, or some special configuration used in Xperia Play.

Additionally, we can discover the full potential of this device, and know, what is the most fastest Xperia Play around the world.

The top results, i will put in the main post. Everything depends of the interest and participation of the community.

You should use LuPuS GB-Stock v7 480p kernel. Install a ram cleaner from google play (I recommend FMR Memory Cleaner) and clean ram. After cleaning ram, go Settings=>Applications=>Running Services and manually clean all tasks. :good: You got 320mb free ram! :good:

Antutu is very inconsistent. One test after another and the score will differ by several hundred. I consider this a fun/joke thread rather than a true measure of performance.

I just stumbled upon this forum and I'm wondering what it is about the roms you guys are using that are getting scores in the 7500 range? Does this also translate to better fluidity, speed and compatibility? I ask because before I tried what I'm using now I had ICS 4.1.2 I believe with Lupus and it ran pretty bad, even overclocked to 1.9ghz.

Wow, thank you so much for letting me know about that.
