White notification bar I don't think you can get that with the current official froyo ROM. I tried to modify the notification bar with "UOT online kitchen" but failed.

Regarding official froyo lockscreen, you can try WidgetLocker (paid apps) if removing HTC sense is not an option.

Why don't you try CyanogenMod RC1 or 2? Superfroyo ROM is still in Spanish for some parts (bro foosoomin tried before) and it's also running on same kernel (2.6.29, HTC official froyo rom is using newer kernel 2.6.32) as CM RC1/2. You will be better of with CM RC 1/2.

Unless FM radio and white notification bar is very very important to you, if yes then you just wait for the official update, if you are unsure with whitetigerdk ROM.

What do you mean by 'wait for the official update'? You mean the official update do carry those stuff that i desire? And that widgetlocker, i dont find it stable... And is it possible for me to flash the radio apps into my CyanogenMod ( If i happen to flash it)?

erm, i cant find the kernel file. And if you 'over-overclock' it, will it 'brick' our phone?
You can't overclock the official HTC froyo ROM because it used a newer kernel source code (2.6.32.17) which is not yet released by HTC. Once HTC release the latest kernel source code then the developers can create a new overclock kernel that can be used with the official froyo ROM.

Current overclock kernel that can be flashed to your ROM is only working for ROMs that utilized older kernel (2.6.29.6), such as CM Nightly, CM 6.1 RC1/2, Azure 1.0.1, Superfroyo, etc.

Overclocking, by right, should not brick your phone, at most it will only become unstable (boot loop, overheat, occasional reboot, etc) because every processors got different OC capability due to inherent manufacturing defect (mine is one of those that becomes unstable with the lowest overclock frequency).

By the way, to my understanding FM radio for Legend with non-official ROMs is currently impossible. It is not as simple as "flash/copy/install the APK" (too chim for me to understand too, got something to do with the driver, kernel, etc etc)... :s13:

oh ya and, if for example my rom is CM V40. and CM V41 has been released and i want to update to that. Do i have to wipe and flash it? Or just flash it? Because i have seen some people in the forum mentioned that they do not wipe it.

"Build 68 doesn't boot for me at all, just stuck at htc screen. No wipe from RC1"

oh well forget it. i guess i will just stick to whitetigerdk's rom. So the current overclock kernel does not support the rom huh. So it's possible to have an overclock kernel that supports the froyo rom that includes sense in it right?

You have to google for the overclock kernel files. Previously it was found in "Overclocking Legend" thread in xda forum, but i just visited the thread & found out that the link has been removed by one of the forumer. Another way is PM me your email address, i'll send to you


Overclock the CPU will NOT brick our phone, it just cause the CPU to work harder. Be prepare for CPU life span to be shorter, that's all

Doesn't have anything to do with sense or senseless... It's all about the kernel.

Try ebay! I bought my screen protector, cases for Legend, and 8gb class 6 microSDHC from ebay. Much much cheaper :)

I may be wrong but I can't think of any other ways except 3rd party apps or removing HTC sense completely.

Maybe you can try other home launcher apps like LauncherPro, ADW or Zeam?

Btw if u have several questions can try to consolidate into 1 post? Makes it easier for those who may want to respond and neater for the forum as well :)
