this rom is just as good if not better than MIUI depending on whos perspective your looking at it from!

I have a stock nandroid for the few rare times I wanted to do this. Admittedly I have other options now to stream the stuff I used it for before. So don't know if I will need it anymore for the HDMI, but it is definitely cool to have the option if I felt the urge.

Yeah this ROM is no Gingerbread or ICS, but Froyo is a better os than 95% of the people give it credit. Of course CM7 is way better as far as customizations and stuff, but AOSP Gingerbread doesn't have all those neat customizations, so when someone says I love Gingerbread, they probably mean I love CM7!
I will never claim my ROM to be better than anything, but it is much better than the stock Triumph firmware. I worked really hard on the theme, and I know everyone doesn't like lime green, but it's my color lol
but me and Ziggy are discussing some other theme colors(blue red etc).
V1.0 was rushed and I apologize for that, and I have been wrapped up in many things lately(and here recently the release of Skyrim, a very sweet game, much better than Oblivion was!) But I have fixed most of the issues on v1.0 like the reboot and shutdown issues, and the front camera works now for me 95% of the time(100% on the latest build of my framework), and the bluetooth functions as it does on the stock ROM for me. I will probably release it with bKernel-DEV-0.23-EXT3 because my ext2 ROM would not boot after a ROM flash last time I tried but it worked fine after flashing the ROM and booting up. This v1.1 will feature and slightly updated theme(I like it better anyways), Power widgets that look sweet, updated apps, and a new zipalign at boot script from Darky ROM, that zipaligns all apks on the phone at boot, and uses the database method for faster zipchecks. Overall v1.1 is a very fast and stable ROM, and I will be moving most of the added apps to data so you all can remove ones you don't want.
v1.1 should be out in a week, and I am going to be pushing out beta's here very soon. I am also going to try to get a custom themed CWM recovery that I am working on included with this release. It will be the latest CWM release, with the icons and font colors changed. I also maybe including a updated kernel if I get that kernel compiled before I am ready to release the ROM.
As always thanks for the feedback both good and bad, and thanks to all who dev and use dev work on android phones!
I will post some screenshots of the theme so you all can see whats going on with it!

I've finally caved and decided to put a custom ROM on my Triumph. After reviewing the other available ROM's, I've decided to go with bROM. One thing I'm unfamiliar with, though, are the build.prop addons. Can someone explain what the differences between the Thunderbolt and stock bROM build.props are vs what comes with the standard bROM install?

Yea I can't for the b_ROM v1.1 with the power widgets. I'll be flashing it. The only reason why I'm on CM7 or MIUI for the notification power widgets.
lol me too! i also go for the speed of cm7.
but from what ive heard, brom 1.1 will be a equal opponent to the gingerbread roms.

Thunderprop, makes apps think your phone is a HTC Thunderbolt even when its not, and you can see more apps in market, because the HTC thunderbolt have more apps supported.

Hi, i wanted first of all to say good job on bRom. It is a really good rom and i liked the tweaks you put in it. However i wanted to return to the Stock Triumph Rom and once i wiped everything and restored my nandroid backup, there was still the bRom motorola logo instead of the stock one. i wanted to ask if you could tell me how to return that to normal and if there is anything else bRom changed that i'd have to switch to get the phone back to 100% stock.
