Apologies for the Noob question, but just wondering if once we have a stable pure CM7 ROM, do the Atrix Dev team members then start working on tweaked versions of that ROM ?
The reason I ask is that I MUCH prefer Moto's method of dismissing individual notifications (ie tap the little Red "-" icon) compared to CM7's swipe the notification away approach.
Will there be devs working on making an "enhanced" CM7 with such mods that they might like, but are not pure CM7 ?
After finial release or stable at the very least

After running CM7 for quite sometime now, I have to say-- it is quite amazing. There are many things that I admire about it, mainly the customization and the speed. Battery life is not that bad either. But i was just wondering, would you recommend switching to MIUI over CM7, and why? There are a bunch of people who love the MI User Interface, and i was thinking- what is so great about it? I would try it but CM7 is perfect for me..
If you like beauty, come to miui.
If you liked the iphone ui, not all of it, but buttons and menus, then this is for you. Much more options, I can change my boot animation, my icons, my theme with 1 press of a button.
Variety of choices.
Miui is cm7, but with beauty. If you like how android or cm7 looks, keep cm7, you'll hate miui
So if I like stock AOSP, then this isn't for me?

There are so many GB roms out there now. What's the difference between miui and say Simply Honey? I've only ever used that and Simply Stock. Is one better than the other as far as performance or is it more visual? Thanks!

Miui is mostly visual it is an overhaul of android ui its also fast but i multitasking menu is slow to start when playing games but it is cool also its smooth over all battery is avrage to bad 8-12 hrs in my experience an other gb roms is samsung roms on steriods an battery is great 12-20 for me froyo like 14-24 an its regular android with twiz on top of it an the browser is lag free on jvs an jvr roms an i prefer sammy gingerbread because its better over all

If I may explain in a slightly less feverish run-on-sentencey way than Jason, MIUI is built from the ground up, while most other Gingerbread ROMs are based on leaked i9000 ROMs from Samsung.
MIUI has a unique launcher that does away with the app drawer, instead putting all apps on your home pages which are easily organized into folders of your choosing. It also has many special features you can't find in the leaked i9000 gingerbread ROMs. For instance, long pressing a toggle like wifi or bluetooth will open up its settings.
MIUI is also, in my experience, a much smoother experience than Froyo and even leaked Gingerbread. The launcher has no lag with only a mild overclock, and apps load quickly. Even the phone itself starts up quicker than with other ROMs.
The best part of MIUI is in the customization by way of theming. All those special lockscreens that require custom ROMs and flashing to use? MIUI allows for anywhere from single swipe to, I'm not kidding, 15 button lock screens simply by downloading them through the online theme collection. You can change your icons, status bar, lock screen and wallpaper, dialer, SMS, and more by simply downloading a theme online through MIUI, and can even mix and match various components to your liking. SMS from Blue Dado Black combined with an animated lockscreen from some indecipherable Chinese name and a font from the Evolver theme, and on and on.
That's just the tip of the iceberg. If you want to know more, read the MIUI threads in the Development section. For me, I can't imagine leaving the ROM without something catastrophic happening.
Thanks man!! I'm gonna give one a try tonight.
One quick question, if I have the gb bootloaders I need to Odin the froyo one right? Also need to be on stock 2.1 or .22

Yes, you'll need a Froyo bootloader. I just installed Lithium V2.1 MIUI and wow, it's super cool. I'm trying to figure out the lockscreens.
of all roms that I have tried Simply Stock 2.3.5 JVS w/ 1.2 Talon Kernel is one badass rom!!!!!!!!!!! it is super fast with 0 bugs or forced closes and I have no desire to switch it for any other "pretty rom"

I have never tried a jv(anything) Tom but I did try every froyo I could get my phone on and I did miui in early augustvand it was a constant flash back and forth from cm7 to that.
I have noticed occasionally lag while loading apps like cnet tv and games (using chainfire pro).
What was the last miui you tried? I must say l, miui as is really stable and still fast, lithium rocks in speed, stock is my face so far when the powermod is applied.
I could not justify staying off of froyo until now.
Miui launches apps fast but are they faster once loaded in Samsung base rom's?
Also it has been since august that I tried any cm7 nightlies since gr90, is it just me or has miui surpassed cm7 in stability with less maunual fixes?
One thing is that the speaker on off for people to hear me is still happening on every miui I try
How would one go about modifying the notification pulldown to individually clear notifications (in the way seen on Motorola devices)?
With cm7 it works that way. I am not sure on stock as I wasn't on it long. Have you tried to lightly press on the individual notification and slide it to the side? At least that is how I have done it on cm7. Let us know if it works in stock.

Unless you're running CM7, you can't...AFAIK, it doesn't work on unNamed ROM (which is what I've installed on my OGSGSII) but I can't tell you if any of the other devs have it built into their kernel. This is a feature that I really like in CM 7.1.0 that I am running on my Nook Color though.
Hopefully, that's pointed you in the right direction at least.
hey guys I'm trying to make my way around to all these roms to try for myself. just wanted to get a headsup on what to expect? what are some differences between pure cm9 and cm9 builds like hydrog3n and resurrection.
like I had cm7 on my sgs1 and it had built in BLN that didnt rape battery, I'm not seeing that on my hydro rom. also getting a weird bug where task manager pops up over lockscreen when unlocking .. anyways ill drop some thanks rep to anyone who gives feedback

pure cm9 is pure、fast and clean,even without file Exploerer.
Hydrog3n and Resurrection build is based on AOKP,which have more setting about UI and CPU/IO control

They are all AOSP based, most of the AOSP based ROMs for the SGS2 at least use the device setup from CM9 and usually add their own tweaks and themeing to it, but the overall experience is going to be similar, keep in mind however that CM9 updates on a fairly regular basis (nightlies aren't every night atm, but close) whereas some of these other ROMs may take weeks to incorporate new AOSP features. As for BLN you would need a custom kernel for this, CM stock doesn't currently support it, also on the SGS2 BLN holds a wake lock where on the SGS it did not, this will cause far more drain on the SGS2 than you experienced on the SGS, unfortunately this doesn't appear avoidable.
Pure CM9 > Update Faster
CM9 builds like hydrog3n > Have AOKP, more tweak as the above said
CM9 builds like resurrection > Have AOKP merged with gapps
i dont use google service, just sync contact and mail from Google, so i choose in between hydrog3n and CM9
finally,i choose to use Pure CM9 as it updated faster.
Hydrog3n is a very good rom. A lot of tweak and a cm9 base. But the battery life is not optimized for this time.

A good place to start here would be to read each ROM's thread. We have enough clutter and non-meaningful conversation as it is. We don't need anymore lazy users asking for the Cliff Notes.

Some things i would love to see implemented into a aosp rom
- touchwiz clear ui
- audio mods
- power button mods
- camera mods (high fps/mbit recording)
- deleting all hub etc crap
do you guys have any ideas?

CM9 or AOKP with all the touchwiz goodies!
@ both posts above
aosp will never have any parts of touchwiz, that has been the case in the past but now we are getting some good features in touchwiz package so lets what developers decide.....
I want Darky to get his hands on 1 and write stuff :].
Voodoo sound engine
And just Root, to delete TouchWiz for LauncherPro or Zeam.
MIUI (2.3.7 build, features are better and more compatible).
Stock Mod (Bloat removed, update kernel I assume it will be Sense 4.0 considering the timing).
CM9 depending (or CM7 something more stable).
You can tell I'm leaning towards older builds for the simple fact it's more stable than any ICS releases for obvious reasons. I figure it will come around as time goes on but as for now I think the forums are full of garbage, the quality of what's released has gone way down hill and I understand that not everything is over night perfection but in the same turn why release faulty development when there's no way to correct the problems (like camera, network, USB etc.)
I'm not bashing anyone's work so don't take offense if you think I'm pointing fingers, I think that all the hype around ICS has everyone jumping through hoops to get something on the forums that just doesn't hold up to the standard that everyone wants credit for.
For sure voodoo sound
