Long time HTC fanboy here - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Well folks i have been a long time fanboy of HTC. All the way back to the HTC vouge. I got my hands on a very good condition epic touch and i got to say, i think i might switch to the dark side. The screen on this thing is amazing. I went from vogue, mogul, touch pro, touch pro 2, evo, evo3d. Think I'm changing my cycle to epic touch, note2 and so on. Got this bad boy in the mail yesterday and rooted last night. Gonna be trying to put on a galaxy s3 rom this weekend.

Aosp is pretty damn awesome right now. So is M'ics rom and blu kuban. Just make sure you read the how to not brick your phone thread in the general section. Welcome to the dark side man

The screen may not be ultra super high rez but it is still glorious. I've done side by sides with many new phones and it still holds its own as far as beauty and brilliance goes. Glad you like it.

Never been a fan of aosp. Think thats why ive stuck with sense so long. I kinda dig the new touchwiz. The old touchwiz sucked from what i can remember with playing around with friends phones

I'd recommend CM10 Beta 2 with JusTunBean inverted apps and JellyBlue_X theme.
Black and blue never looked this good!

It has been attempted but the framework is so different that until there are stable ports to different devices it will not work out.
The one in the market to me just isn't good at all. I mean they did good work but just the fact that they insist on having those onscreen buttons there and not make them option is what bugs me the most. The app drawer is going to be a chore to try to even imitate. Like I said they do good work but they don't seem to take user input very seriously.
I feel the same about all android imitated launchers in the market, froyo, GB, ICS ex... But I think Ics is ugly anyways, that's why when it comes out for our phone, I will theme the hell out of it on day #1.

Taking the proper steps...flash cm9 alpha 4.
Then download the theme and install. Then apply it in the themes section of settings.

Go Launcher has a fairly descent selection of red themes (red Nexus live WP looks good too) and Dazed has a nice red flip clock.
DL your fav rom with inverted apps, DL and load Go, DL your red theme from market, DL Dazed red flip clock and you're good to go. Did this on my wife's EVO. Not exact, but it's close

The illest CM9 Theme .

I like the theme, but I agree with the above poster that the wallpaper makes it look a little busy and confusing. Loving the black & red theme though; as I currently have my desktop PC setup in an ROG black/red theme ATM that reminds me of this.

Thanks for showing a cool theme but, HOW/WHERE can it be gotten (Including your wallpapers)? I saw the post above with the link to a page of many links to themes. but WHICH one is THIS one??
If you have a link, please provide it.

Is the official ice cream sandwich update any good ?

I'm tired of being on gingerbread but I'm pretty much dome with custom roms. I've seen a lot of people bashing the update so I never touched it but apparently they sent out another update a few weeks ago. Did it make things worse? How is the smoothness and battery life compared to stock gingerbread.

I'm a little biased, but I agree. I personally do not care for themed roms. I would prefer to make small changes myself and if I want a little theming, there are a few good launchers out that provide the theming that I need.

Im trying calkulin's 1.6 ics fe22 rom in the original development section. Yes its old. Yes theres recalk. His fe22 and el29 may be old but they are stable and ive not had any snafus yet.
Every time I try ics its still buggy for me. Sometimes the capacitive buttons don't work for a couple seconds, or the weird visual glitch in the task manager. None of it seems worth the hassel. JB is the way to go imo with project butter this thing is bulletproof. Yea they are a bit unstable which I realize I just complained about, but I think jb is worth it because you actually gain something compared to the ics update, where really the only thing you get is access to a couple apps (chrome etc) and instability. It gets rid of all the nice cosmetic changes ics made, and covers them with touchwiz. For the bone stock user, yea the ics update adds functionality (very little) but if you're rooted ics is a waste of time. That and the fact that no one can theme a rom to make this phone not look like a toy anyway.
