Leo on X1

Ever since HTC Leo surfaced, i’ve been lusting to get the updated HTC Sense UI onto my X1. I personally didn’t like TF3D that much, but with HTC Sense the UI was taken a lot further making it more useful and powerful and an extreme eye-candy. (can’t get enough of the weather animations) But disappointed I was since all Leo ROMs that surfaced were either too buggy or poor in performance and thus lacked the guts to be used as a day-to-day ROM. Of course there were customizations in between where people brought in Leo with better performance by turning off the X1 panels or those who modified the original TF3D2 (the one with landscape support) to be close to what Leo’s Sense offered.

Still, of course there is no denying that the ROM’s main appeal is for Professional and Enterprise users only – as intended by the cooker norti . But once you flash the bare ROM onto your X1, you can customize it to your heart’s desires with the X1 Panel Manager and other flashy tools as required while still keeping a fast ROM at the base. The best customization would be, which i did do, to install WAD2 and then apply some of the ultimate and cool themes that often perform slow on other ROMs. If interested, head on here for more information on the

Welcome Back to Me!

Hello Xperiancers… Surprised to hear from me? Me too! The last few weeks have been extremely dull in terms of the X1. Nothing much has happened to get me excited enough to blog about. Nothing much that is until yesterday. What happened you ask? Well, found a custom Leo ROM that actually functions as if it was built only for the X1, tried out Android, and also got hands-on with an extremely fast 6.1 ROM! When i say extremely fast, i mean like SUPER DOOPER FAST! Keep an eye out for my posts about each to hit the blog soon…
