Any New ROMs?

[brad92]

I like new ROMs. What can I say, I ran Apex back in May and June, it was a good ROM and I enjoyed it. Fabolous has since moved on to the Galaxy Nexus.

I've been on CM7 for awhile now. I've done custom boot animations, UI tweaks, hacks and more.

The X is old and doesn't have an unlocked bootloader and as much of a cult following like the OG Droid. Which sucks, but its fact. It just sucks that there are people like me, that enjoy Modding their phone, are locked into an older phone.

Yeah I hear ya. When you say "locked in" is that because of a carrier contract? I'm still about 6 months from an upgrade and I have no idea what to get next. You seem to have a pretty good grasp on Android devices any suggestions for my next device? I've been looking at the Bionic... Any feedback would be greatly appreciated

Yes, my upgrade isn't until May 27th, so its gonna be a long wait haha. I can't afford to pay full price for a new phone, so I've gotta wait.

As for phones, if I had to choose based on what is out there right now, I would choose the Galaxy Nexus or the HTC Rezound. The RAZR isn't a bad phone, but its Motorola and has a locked bootloader. The Bionic seems like it has had a bunch of issues and it doesn't help consumer confidence when Motorola released the RAZR a month after the Bionic.

If the X had an unlocked bootloader, we most likely would have a fully functioning ICS ROM by now. Look at the Droid 1. It still has development after over 2 years.

Anyway, thats just my opinion. You really need to go up to Verizon and play with each phone to see which one you like and will be comfortable with for 2 years.

Good luck,
