Ropehead ROM Review: Warm TwoPointThree (Nightly - r280) [Sprint HTC EVO 3D]

So as we all know or may not know, an official alpha build of CM7 has been released for the HTC EVO 3D.  Unfortunately since it's still ALPHA, there are some issues that still need to be worked out such as the battery not charging correctly, the camera not working, bluetooth etc.  Now I've been a huge fan of AOSP builds of android, as opposed to manufacturer overlays (Sense, Touchwhiz, Blur, etc.) since my original G1.  With that said, I also need my daily driver phone to have all of its features working.  I flashed CM on my EVO 3D and boy was it fast.  It was nice to finally see an AOSP ROM in all its heavenly glory being backed by a dual core Snapdragon processor but.  That lasted for about an hour before I flashed back to my trusty sense ROM.  The sense ROM that I've actually been rawkin' for the past month.  Different builds of it anyway.  Which brings me to this review.

The sense ROM that took me away from all others which I believe to be the most stable, battery efficient, and cleanest looking EVAR is Warm TwoPointThree by Myn and Team Warm ROMs.  I don't even think official builds have been released as of yet, however, if you scour the official discussion thread on rootzwiki, I'm sure you'll find one.  That's where I first got a taste for this ROM goodness.  Even more so, if you set up an SVN program on your computer, you'll be able to download every revision made to it by tapping into their ROM repository.  Isn't that just convenient.  Let's get to the ROM shall we?

Ropehead Tutorials: How to use SVN on Ubuntu 11.04 to download nighly Android ROM updates

I originally learned how to SVN by following, XDA user, LiquidSolstice's tutorial on using the Window's application, Tortoise SVN, in order to utilize SVN for the Synergy Nightlies. With that said, however, I never actually used it for Synergy because I was pretty stuck on the Absurd ROM at that point which is what I had used SVN for. Either way, I eventually stuck with KushDeck for a bit, which doesn't actually use SVN.  That was until I discovered the wonders of Warm TwoPointThree by Myn and the rest of team Warm ROMs.

I had been lurking the Warm Discussion thread on Rootzwiki and lucky for me someone had posted a link to an already zipped Warm Nighty. From there, I was hooked and knew I would have to rawk the SVN myself in order to stay somewhat current with how the build was progressing.

How To: Install a custom splash image on your HTC EVO 3D (Must be rooted with S-Off)

How to: Perm-Temp Root the HTC EVO 3D plus OC with ease! (Windows)

This tutorial will not only Perma-Temp Root your Sprint HTC EVO 3D, but will also give you the ability to watch HULU from your phone's browser. Just when you thought it couldn't get any better, if followed correctly, you will also be able to overclock your EVO 3D to 1.8g. Keep in mind that this is still only a temp root. Essentially that means that if you were to reboot your phone, you would lose root along with any changes you had made to the main partitions of the phone.
