I second that!
Tardis based storage, you flip the screen up and have several large room of storage to hang out and drink beer in.
Fully debloated,deodexed,overclocked,with a nicely animated 3d theme would also be nice

I'm guessing you haven't looked at CorteX2. It's got half of what you asked for and one thing is currently impossible atm (overclocking).
I would like LED customization for apps. Meaning you define what apps use what color. It was in Ultimate Droid but I'm not sure where he got it from.
EDIT: And I wasn't trying to be a jerk. Just saying you should go look at what he's done already.
Samsung pull downs are pretty sweet.
ability to change the led color, themes.

Yeah saw half of it is in there, and am impressed with whats there already (good work) was just saying a nice animated 3d theme woujld be nice as well. my friend just got a droid 3 and when sliding between screens theres a 3d effect that looks kinda cool, not looking for the same effect but some 3d animations would be nice. I know overclocking isnt possible yet but a most decent overclock programs also underclock which is possible=-) I really like your idea of differant leds for differant things ( it would be amazingly nice to look at the light and know green means txt, red means missed call, blue for email or whatnot. Im guessing no luck on the tardis mode though lol
Fast, clean, and stable. Anything else is just icing on the cake.

Liberty Rom sounds cool.
Eventhough I know this is related to a Rom thread, I will need to move this general forums since it is not development. Also, this discussion can be perfectly carry out in the rom thread.
Thanks
would like to see CRT tv off Animations
some color (nothing bright or ugly.... simple) but incorporated through the whole rom dial pad, settings, etc.
some widget love! the white stock stuff is ugly would like to see some dark color maybe transparent .....somewhere along those lines ...........
everything else is pretty much a given ......
thanks for asking the users ! good to get an input in and hopefully see some good stuff in your work to come! thanks agian!!!!

what i would like to see in a droid x2 rom
personally I really like minimalx... just remove everything possibly without breaking functionality so we can install and use our own apps. just make it blazing fast with a simple black theme.
Related
So just wanted to let everyone know I started development of an X2 rom using a similar approach to Minimal X but keeping in the essential apps, such as the calendar and alarm clock. I'm currently alpha testing my first build right now and its surprisingly stable. Here's what I plan to offer in the first initial release.
-AOSP apps (very minimal blur)
-Launcher2 (rather than moto's launcher)
-Recovery Bootstrap app included with install
-Overclocking (still trying to work out the bugs)
It's not a lot offered above, but will help to eliminate all the bloat and still leave you with a fully functioning experience.
Are there any suggestions you guys have for features that could be added in for the first release or down the road. This is my first ROM and being a PHP developer its a completely different world to me.
Thanks for looking and your feedback.

I can also beta test for you. Thx
Thanks for the feedback everyone. Since my weekend is a little busy I probably wont have a beta out to download and test til Monday, but as far as stability, its pretty smooth. I just want to fix a few aesthetics before I release it.

Its mostly Verizon's fault, but putting pressure on Motorola will help get the bootloader unlocked later this year. I think I recall an article that said Motorola will/was considering unlocking their bootloaders later this year. As far as i know unless they do, or we hack all the way around it we can't manipulate the kernel that controls the processor. Someone did get 2nd-init, so now we can port all of the popular roms over, but no dice on kernels yet. Complain to Verizon and Motorola. Its your phone you should be able to with it as you please. Verizon should be posting Sbf with tutorials on how to fix your phone after you over tweak.
As far as the rom goes how about including some hacked apk's or a modified version of the blur cam with search button as the shutter button. Anyway you could get rid of the snap to grid on the home screen icons. Could make some sweet home screens if you could move the icons where ever you want them.
For those that have to have certain applications that came default on the DX2 keep your eyes on this post > http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-x2-roms/161753-dx2-apk-grabber.html I am working on an app which includes all of the original files so that you can easily re-add them to a custom rom. This helps the developer keep their rom's slim and allows the end user to only get what they actually want.

Well, the phone really is not our own unless we buy it out-right. It's provided at a lower cost for the promise we will keep their service and I think in that case they have the right to lock it down, but on the other side of the coin I think they should give you the option to unlock everything once the contract term is up or if you buy the phone upfront.
I really like the idea of using the search button to take pictures. Sometimes if you hit the on screen button it pulls over the menu instead of snapping the picture which can ruin a kodak moment.
The snap to grid is really annoying. I would like to place the icons anyplace I fancy. And as a final note, we have an SBF with a guide already.
Overclock would be nice
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
I'd love the ability to kill the current app by long-pressing the Back button.
I'd also like to see power control widgets in the notification bar, but since I have Quick Settings tied to my long-press Search button, that's lower priority.
I'd also be happy to beta this!
I would love to help you test this!
Sent from my DROID X2
I would be, as well. Not having calendar killed MinimalX2 for me, but I liked everything else about it. And overclocking?

Not only that, but the new Blur, (which Motorola doesn't like to call Blur, and still refers to it as blur in programming), is now the Motorola Applications Platform, but is wonderfully filled with features on the Droid Bionic. Can't wait to see a port of their "com.motorola.blur.home.apk," and "com.motorola.blur.widgets.apk," in addition to whatever other goodies it has to offer.

I know there was a Droid 3 system dump and I'm pretty sure there was a Bionic one as well. Is it possible to port the Blur home from either of those to the X2? Or is anyone working on that? I've been interested in trying the new Blur home.
I would love to see this.

Theoretically, anything is possible. But whether or not it is worth the effort to do so is a better question.
It would be nice though.
Would be cool to see. Eye candy gives me nerdgasms.
I'd love to see the Bionic's blur on the X2, I really like the new lockscreen/home screen transitions.

<---agrees 100% ... I would love to see a bionic port... Btw zumocast almost fully works on my dx2... With the exception of: I cant update and i cant play video.. But if i could get the overall bionic ui i would be in geek heaven... Or even just the quick contacts widget would be a nice addition.. :d
Would anyone with a Bionic be kind enough to post up the BlurHome2.apk (or whatever the actual name is..). I'd like to see if pushing it to my phone works like the launcher2 did.
I don't wanna see any blur.. sorry

Very helpful....this thread is about asking to put it on our phones, not whether you like it or not.
Oh my god! I was doing a google search for ICS on Motorola Droid X2 to see if Moto announced anything recently. And all of a sudden, look what I found!
Google search: Last 24 Hours> ICS for Motorola Droid X2!
Apparently, Melvin is not done with trolling us. He posted this video on youtube!
And this image on imgur!
Anyway, apparently you can spoof Android Version number easily. So, I guess this another Melvin fail! Besides, he has GB kernel
Looked real to me... idk how one would fake that. Sounds like a cry baby in his comments. Either way good for him! Dkz is working hard for us and we'll be rocking cm9 soon enough!
We are sorry Melvin, sorry that we hurt your feelings. Honestly I didn't think trolls had feelings, but you should us they are just like people.

Over at that ICS Upgrade android life page someone in comments said ICS Confirmed for X2 but would love to know if that was Mr. M as well.
What a sloppy fake. He didn't even change the font.
Guess I don't understand the purpose behind faking ICS for X2. Why go to all the trouble? What kind of benefit is reaped from it? Just doesn't make sense to me. Seems unnecessary, to say the least.

If it IS ICS, show us some of that ICS-specific stuff. All he showed us is what you could do with any theme and launcher.
Show us Face Recognition, show us the ICS widgets.
He can't because it isn't ICS.
Melvin is a little boy-troll. Man, what happened to teenagers looking at Penthouse/Hustler/Playboy magazines?
(Did I just say that?)
Anyone who knows an admin should totally, ya know, give me Melvin's IP, so I can, ya know, thank him for his work porting ICS by sending him a few million packets every second for the rest of the week.
Anybody?

What is the heartbeat?
One of the Coolest and Smoothes mods IMO ever to grace an Android Device. Look a page back, download it, make a nandroid backup, flash it and check it out. Also its only for cdma so if your gsm then it won't work. Also I don't know if will work on the rom your running if your cdma and that's why I suggested you make a nandroid in case it doesn't.
