There has already been too many threads on ROM comparison, please read those and not make anymore new thread.
Anyway, it is all about personal preferrence. No ROM is beter than any other ROM.

wow what an incorrect statement...
some roms come with "bloat ware" and are slower then other etc... some use less battery etc....

You should test them and see which one fullfil your needs, it wouldn't take so long. Just try them for a couple of days and probably you will make up your mind with either one of them

My two cents..In my experience, Love is better than 3vo overall ...maybe not so many bells and whistles, but speed, battery life and stability count for me.
Just to clarify, I did not try the latest release of 3vo..
Anyway, jump from one rom to another tooks no so much time, so the best judgement will be done by yourself...alll the cooked roms available are great jobs and deserve a shot

As others already suggested...
It's all personal preference what one person likes another may not, find the ROM that best suites your need, there's not that many and a couple of days will find it
On that note thread closed.

[rom] Need faster

hello, need fastest rom for Hermes because I installed a lot longer roms but they are terribly slow and delay the work phone. Sorry for my English.
Now i using DarkVision 4
DV 4.0 is really fast IMHO, maybe try DV5 (its still beta, but stable)
i suggest u to use Mrdsl's rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=543842
wm 6.5 with manilla..
Problem isn't the ROMs, Its the hardware... Hermes was a brilliant piece of hardware in its time but, and I'm sorry to say this, its almost hit the obsolete heap...
Too little ram is a MAJOR pain for this phone. Otherwise it would still hold its own with a fair number of the newer HTC's on the market.
Unfortunately its this that is causing a large number of chefs to move on to newer devices. I would give the Hermes about 12 - 18 months before there will be no more new ROMs.
12-18 month?? Great!
Until then, i can play and test again with your great 6.5-Roms, maybe 7.0 Roms. Or back to the good old 6.1 Rom with many, many UI-posibillities, for example rlToday, TodayPlus, and all that good fast stable stuff...

Little question have you compared it with spb mobile shell 3.0 in case of speed, memory and ergonomy (OK, the last is allways subjectively )?

you can't compare it - it strongly depends on the HS++ skin you choose.
thanks for this answer of my offtopic-question. I'm reading all day long in the developing subforum. There are several Theme-Threads of HS++, I'm afraid to say no one "Collecton-of-all-Theme-Links-Thread". But I found an interesting alternative to homescreen++: ThrottleLauncher. Yes, UI-search and customizing with hundreds of themes is very time-consuming...
I'm testing right now your ROM, interesting ROM, but sadly find some bugs (~10). Maybee tomorrow I'll write some of them into your thread.
bye.
I agree with Ultramag... i will keep some bucks to buy a nicer device but... i will wait till end of this year to have a nicer view about the sanpdragon processor and high ress and screen, 3.5 audiojack and so much RAM!!!

as long as our cooks stick with wm 6.5 u wont see any "fast" roms in the future
our hermes hardware is limited now...6.5 isnt the OS thats made for it. i still prefer 6.1 over 6.5, cuz they are better/faster/ more stable for daily use.

Did you even try it? It's really faster and very stable. Don't just repeat what some are talking around - try it for yourself.

No - RAM is built-in into the whole Hermes' SoC - so it's not possible.

yeah i tried a lot, thats why i have this opinion
even your dark vision one. it looks fine...like all the others but its not usable for "me". too laggy after some use (internet, telephon, calender, etc...) and i dont want to softreset my phone everyt time i used a prog or two. i did the same things as on 6.1 and it behaves more weird, so i always went back to 6.1 after a 6.5 flash.
maybe im too fuzzy.
but hey, thats my opinion, my experience with that, tho.

sure, no offence.
But they... have you tried Hibernate option? Or my "Kill'em all" script? I'm softresetting my device really rarely - and I'm using it quite heavily....
But if you want 6.1 - I have uploaded once a full kitchen for this - and it produces really fast ROMs

Performance ROM's

Hiya,
Before I get flamed for this I want to make it clear I've tested every custom-brewed rom on xda-dev and have created (and failed) my own rom.
My sole purpose is to have a rom that is all performance based with little to no eye-candy.
Kavana, lovebaby, etc really didn't work for me. I've been using the latest EnergyROM and I like it so far (except for random crashes after sending text messages).
Because of my ignorance, I want to know if there is a rom out there specialized solely for performance that may not be on xda-dev.
Thanks
There isn't any in my opinion cause I have tried all the roms and they always seem to get unstable after continous usage or after a few weeks.
But the original HTC Rom worked great but didn't look so good...
I'm surprised you say Kavana's ROM didn't work for you. I have tried ROM after ROM and I keep going back to Kavana's. For me, It seems to be the best balance of speed (after you bump it up a bit with OMAPClock,) stability, battery life, and flexibility.
Using kavanna ricky remade and all is working great!
I have not made a soft reset in more than 2 months!
But always a new ROM is something attractive

+2 on this one, I've used kavana's rom for over a year with no issues at all...I moved to a cooked 6.5 rom (3vo) 6 months ago..so there are very good roms out there.

I too am using Kavana's remade ROM at the moment. Its the best I have used so far.
Well indeed I've used Kavanas (and actually have re-installed it on my phone about a week ago to give it another go) but I've noticed most of these ROMs fall in line not far from each other.
I'm actually using a 2200mAh extended battery and the battery isn't consumed as much on Kavana's and EnergyROM. I am certain a ROM can created that can far exceed our current ones.
I have down-clocked my CPU but I don't think that should be an option. Thanks to all the guys who have actually put in the time to creating ROMs for the community and I mean do disrespect to you or the work that you have produced. Hey, we're humans and greedy for more

Best custom rom for battery management

I was wondering which rom out of the many available - is best in terms of battery life?? I didn't really want to start a whole new thread .. but i am looking for those here who have flashed most of the custom desire roms on XDA, I need a rom that manages battery better then most.

I'm pretty sure that you are going to have lots of answers. Unfortunately, each one, talking about one rom or the other will tell you that its rom is better that others.
I'm running a ROM developped by a single developper (Itanium 1.8 today) and the battery life is pretty good. Undervolt mod is included, several optimizations have been made for battery usage, but again, I'm pretty sure Cyanogen and OpenDesire (these are examples, not the only ROMs working fine I guess) are good at saving baterry life...
So I would say it's hard to tell, and the best advice would be for you to test several of these and find the one which best suits your needs... You might end with a ROM which might give you less battery life, but which would looks better for you and for your usage (Sense based, without Sense...).
Hope this makes sense.

thanks for the info bro I hope others will also post a comment. Although, as you said - opinions will dither, it will still be good to get an overall opinion from many XDA desire users.

ROM Suggestion?

I bought an Arc S and tried many ROMS but I'm not yet satisfied
I liked CyanogenMod 10 but battery drained fast and high RAM usage can anyone suggest me a similar rom in which there is no lag while playing games and has a smooth UI
Suggest me a good rom for daily use cause i cant conclude myself to any rom
There are some suggestions by a handful of users on this thread:

I can't agree more. Which ROM is the fastest? Which kernel is best? etc. etc. It's like walking into a bar and asking which drink is the best. You can't get your answer because every person around has a personal taste and looking for something different.
Going further. Telling that one ROM is better than another is quite disrespectful to developers. Most of them spent much time making their work for FREE and one guy can easily depreciate their work.
If you're looking for answer - try. It's easy and making it on your own is much funnier than looking for spoon feeding in every situations. Thinking is fun

New HTC 10 - which ROM?

Just bought myself a new HTC 10 from DWI that arrives today from Hong Kong. I'm sure it's going to be full of bloatware I dont want so I'm looking at flashing something else that is close to stock, if not stock android. It looks like Viper10 or LeeDroid are the two best options (as far as I can tell).
- What are the main differences between the two?
- Which one would I be better off with?
- How long would it take to install them?
Viper gives more customization and Lee gives speed and stability imo. I can't tell you which is better off which since it depends on your behavior using the phone. The installation process won't take more than 30 minutes, the complicate part is rooting and flashing recovery etc..

Sounds like Lee would appeal more to me. Just started using the phone though and its amazing, no bloatware at all. Just updating to Nougat now and cant fault it - wondering if its even worth going through the hassle to root and flash it etc.

why shall our rom not be stable? We have much customizations yes, but when you install the rom, you have a pure stock look and behavior at the beginning...it's up to the user to customize.
We don't force any user use any of our customization if he does not want to....and those customization don't make the rom not running stable.
I would say all sense roms that come with a stock kernel are running stable.

I guess everyone sees and lives thru ROMs differently. People tend to think that a feature packed ROMs are usally less stable, since they have to have loads of processes and stuff running in background, which in turn results in a FC or crash every now and then. Thus, lighter ROMs are being considered more stable :silly: Just my opinion, I'm still full stock, can't decide what to flash

Nope.Viper is as stable as LeeDroid since they are stock based. The less stable ones are LOS based. You could categorize as less customizable more customizable.

We have no additional processes running, lol. Most users don't have the knowledge how things work...but then people shouldn't judge the work of people that spent thousands of ours of their freetime into.
A general rule is though: Asking for a good rom is always wrong since people have different preferences.
You should always try out the roms yourself and make your own picture of it.
Well I did say imo..
Obviously I'm not a godly dev like you but that's just what I think, it may not apply to all of you but I was just simply answering op.
#AlternativeFacts :laugh:
Make XDA great again!
I'm sure the guy originally asking for an opinion has now gotten a fair share of slapping.
The best way to find out, just to repeat whats been said, is to flash different ROMs and find your own preference. There is nothing objective in ROM choice, it is always entirely opinion based and as such a wonderful starter for flame wars. I love those questions. Could jump right in
