Vortex rom

[tjarvis]

Just wanted to shine a little light on a great rom that seems to have been overlooked. Over on rootzwiki under the d2 dev section where the roms are, give the vortex rom a shot. It's fast and stable with fairly decent battery life with decent custom options including notification pulldown power strip. It's worth a flash if you're looking for something other than cm7 or liberty 3.

You'll probably have to delete it from system then download it from the play store. You do need to reboot after deleting it or the new one will fail to install.
