I agree, the Magic's 3G reception is not where it should be - likewise with battery life. The pro's still outweigh the con's, and I still have a lot of hope for Donut. We are only at version 1.5 right now...

Hmm yeah, that's my game plan for now... I'll wait until the Android becomes better... it's got a ton of potential!

Pretty soon I hope there will be a Blackberry-type device running on Android... that would be insane!

I doubt that will happen, even it does, it wont be soon.

Sorry for late response...

So I have flashed
HBOOT-1.33.0009 (SAPP50000) : Sapphire PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H : CPLD-12 (Rogers)

Did not wipe, kept my HoFo 1.09

All booted fine...

I am going to test it out for about a week and see if I notice any difference and will report back here.

Version 1.1.0

- dalvikvm backported (by cyanogen) from Donut = speed increase
- Google Maps updated to 3.1.2

Download: http://www.4shared.com/file/12220041...1/hofo110.html (rename to update.zip)

You don't have to wipe, all of your settings will remain after the update.

I am eager to try this ROM right now I am using the Hero Rom's does this ROM have the same integration such as connecting facebook with my contacts and twitter widgets, pretty much the social integration part.

No, only the Hero ROM has that integration. I'm actually waiting for this to come out:

...which looks better than what the Hero ROM has.

OK, I think I found a Korean keyboard that could be used with the Magic. I will try to make a Korean version as soon as possible.

Well...
I did download a Korean Keyboard Input by Kandroid.org
it does work but after being used to long press keys and minimize button... it's hard to get used to.
Wish there was some clean slick yet very useful skin.

I would absolutely love it if it was exactly same as default keyboard layout/skin from HoFo yet have option to simply switch the alpha to korean characters.

Anyways,,, thanks for working on it.

Also, do you think it's possible to more optimize the performance/memory management etc... on future releases?

Thanks!

PS
Is it possible to make 5 home screen on HoFo?

I don't think it's possible to do 5 screens without the HTC source, which is not released yet.

I was referring to that Korean keyboard earlier. I don't know if there is another one? I don't think I'll make a special Korean ROM as all that is required for the Korean keyboard is a quick install from the market.

As far as performance and memory optimizations are concerned, I'll apply any mod that can be used with the HTC Rogers ROM. Mind you, I don't want to sacrifice stability for a few milliseconds. Hopefully we'll get Donut really soon.
