After much anticipation, here’s the long awaiter SuperHero ROM, which provides the stability of the official 2.1 release, with the speed and performance of Team Villain’s tweaks and a build without SENSE UI. This truly is a performance ROM, which includes the superior HTC apps.
VillainROM Disclaimer & More Info
The ROMs produced by our team are based on the most stable build available at the time. VillainROMs are designed to be as standard as possible, with all the necessary tweaks, improvements and optimisations, without the unnecessarily bundled applications and themes. Our aim is to provide stable, daily ROMs for our users.
VillainROM’s work is our own. In the unlikely event that we have utilised another developer’s hard work, permission will be sought in advance and full credits will be given. We ask that any of you aspiring developers out there do the same in return.
Our ROMs undergo a thorough internal testing process, so should present no risk to your handset if you follow the instructions provided below. That being said, the VillainROM team are not responsible for any bricks, fires or otherwise terrible scenarios caused as a direct result of flashing our ROMs.

Hi!
Are there any differences to yesterdays release?
Btw. Many thanks for your support to the community! Same goes to the original supplier of the base rom and their mods.
I like the way the menus open and the cool music player!
Thanks
URBANsUNITED
oh sry, missed it as i was scanning through the unique features
Thanks for the ROM. Easy to install & easy to use
It probably will stay in my phone at least till final CM6.1 gets released.
By the way I really would love to see the white status bar changed on default theme (at least the clock). I know I can use any of the other themes but I prefer the default one…
Nice to see you keep working. Good Job. Well done.
Thanks for great rom! Missing swedish... is it possible to add?
Otherwise fast and stable with >200 Apps installed...

Gonna try this one. Sounds promissing. I was on doc's JP8 v9 but had problem with market downloads so I reverted to JPO v8 where I have same problem.
Let see if this one will work.
Are there Czech locals?
WELCOME TO VILLAINROM
This bit’s the introduction. If you’re not interested in who we are, or how we got here, or are of the TL;DR mentality, then skip this entire section.
I HAVE INTERNET AT LAST! 5 weeks without it, and I'm officially back online, today! woop! Thank you for your patience. We wanted to make sure this ROM was right for you all prior to release! As many of you have noticed, I’m well and truly back in to the world of custom roms, after a few months break over the summer. Believe me, it was well and truly needed. It’s great to be back though.
If you’ve come from a HTC Hero/Desire or Magic, the chances are, you’ve heard of VillainROM. For that reason, I won’t go into who we are in too much detail. Sufficed to say, we’re a hardworking team of collaborative developers, working towards a common goal; to improve on manufacturer’s versions of the Android OS’ and to provide alternative, AOSP versions. We will no longer be providing 'experimental beta' releases, but instead, only releasing ROMs we deem to be 'final'.
So... to the ROM!
Before I do, though, I’d just like to take this opportunity to offer a huge message of gratitude to the team at #g2root. Scotty2 and the team worked their arses off for weeks on this, and together they achieved what HTC attempted to make impossible. We all owe them a huge debt of thanks.
This thread will house two ROMs; each of which will have its own thread on VillainROM.co.uk, but it's more manageable in the one here. Because of this, I'd appreciate it if you could post the name of the ROM you're using prior to reporting a problem/giving praise. These ROMs follow the successful release of Villision last week, which was a combined effort between HomerSP and myself. Homer is a legend, and he's worked with me again on this one. Once labelled 'The Hotfix King', he has been known to de-odex sleeping frogs and some pretty large haddock. I thank him, once again for his help and support.
VillainROMZ for the G2/Z is a stock Sense UI build, with a few VillainROM tweaks. The more obvious tweak is that the reboot and reboot to recovery options have been added, but I assure you, more changes have been made to the 'back end', so you should see an improvement on performance.
SuperVillainZ on the other hand, is one of VillainROM's specialities. It was, some time ago, one of the most popular ROMs on the Hero, and offers a combination of SenseUI and vanilla. It's entirely based on VillainROMZ, with HomerSP's power menu tweak and the tweaks of VillainROM, however, Rosie, and Sense UI widgets have been removed from the build. In addition, the age old problem of the ALARM CLOCK + LOCKSCREEN has been FIXED, by the very same, fish de-odexing legend, HomerSP. That means, you can use your HTC alarm, with your vanilla lockscreen... at last.
SuperVillainZ offers users what are, in our opinion the best bits of Sense UI (apps), with a Vanilla-like feel. The huge reduction in /system size and applications obviously makes it run that little bit better, too. This is the perfect ROM for those that can't decide... to sense, or not to sense.
The ever growing list of credits - Thanks to: HomerSP, Pulser, Cyanogen, Scotty, #g2root, Ninpo, Kendon, Mike Coffee, Lenny, Shen, Jeremy, Paul (Modaco), Richard Trip, MikeBeecham, RaiderX, lox, benhaam, strange Chinese guy whose name I don’t know but regularly places leaks in my dropbox, ALL VILLAINROM users, and in advance to anyone who downloads any of these ROMs, supports us, or leaves feedback.
/End introduction.

I can't remember who found the error, but thank you!
Sorry - I manually typed in a load of APNs, and must have removed something.
Woot, finally here! I'll be flashing it later this week when my schedule clears up a bit. Now to decide between SuperVillian or VillianROM.... Does SuperVillian have the HTC dialer?
Wow, you sir are the man... I'll def. be trying this ROM out right now!

For anyone who downloaded the ROM more than 2 minutes ago, please download it again, as I have corrected an error that gave you an older version of the ROM, without so much added awesomesauce.

Ok I installed it but for some reason it keeps saying there's no network found? Anyone else having this issue? This is after a full wipe & install btw... I had everything turned on as well but still no luck...
I guess its back on CM RC3 for now till someone tells me what the issue is.

Tried out both of the older ones .. WOW .. VillainROMz is SO much faster/smoother than any other Sense ROM I've tried. Too bad they both contain the usual sense UI problem when changing density. Will redownload the new ones though.
downloading to try now! the sense ver..im kinda addicted to sense!
also what kind of goodies can we look forward to in updates?
if i could request a few:
1.an audio boost to phone calls! would be great!!
2.maybe the stock 2.2 keyboard would be a great addition also!
So why cant i connect to T-Mobile's network? I can only get a connection thru Wifi and nothing when i turn off Wifi.
Whats the deal here????

This ROM is a mish-mash of Vanilla Gingerbread & CM7, and is compiled from the latest CyanogenMod 7 sources. It will be regularly maintained with the latest commits from the CM guys, and our own VillainROM tweaks and changes. This ROM is starting to take shape, and differing from the stock CM7 build.
Anyway, before we begin - I'd like to thank the entire CyanogenMod team for the epic and consistently BRILLIANT work, for without it, this, and many other ROMs would not be possible. Well done guys - You deserve all the credit. I'd also like to thank Ninpo for his CM6.1 work, and the rest of the VillainROM developers & staff (Pulser, HomerSP, Kendon, Shen, Lenny, Acolwill, dmzda, Revoked, McDuck, etc)
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
To flash this ROM, you will NEED to have ClockworkMod 3.0 installed, which manages EXT4 partitions. If at any stage you need to revert back to a Froyo ROM, you will need to reflash /boot into CWM 2.X via Fastboot.
1. Download ClockworkMod 3.0 from here
2. Boot the phone into Fastboot mode by holding Volume Down and pressing power
3. From terminal/command prompt, type:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
OR... alternatively, just fastboot boot into CWM 2.X to revert to a Froyo backup.
4. Boot into recovery (adb reboot recovery ... or Hold camera and press power)
5. Perform a FULL DATA/CACHE WIPE (only if coming from Froyo)
6. Install Zip from SD Card, and select GingerVillain1.4-signed.zip
1.4 Known Bugs:
1. Enabling screen on/off animations and OC/UV at the same time causes lag when trying to turn the screen on. The animations work fine without overclock... so it's oone or the other right now I'm afraid.
Download links are HERE!
If you're a fan of the ROM.. thank us with a 5 star rating!
thanks will flash soon. in the meantime posting a mirror at my blog.
So you bit off Cyanogen, called it your own, and are (albeit politely) requesting donations?
I hope I'm not right.

You know Cyanogen already talked about this before and apparently you didn't read it or get the message that this is what being on an Open OS system is about. Please read around or at least think before you snap at people for no reason.

Wow, just stop, lol. If people feel like donating for the things OUTSIDE of the CM stuff in here, then that's great. This isn't just cm7 compiled from source, labeled GingerVillain, and saying "Donate plzzzz"
Honestly, I've been using the other cm7 builds, but WOW. This build is SUPER smooth, at only 806mhz!! It's definitely going to be a keeper if it maintains this. Don't know about battery, obviously, but for anyone who has been using the other ones .. the modifications by Villain definitely make this thing fly. No DSP though, or StatusBar widgets, before people ask.
I hate you NP.....
Haha jk... I really need root
Looking foward to flashing this (when I can).. liked your hero roms
Seems like the server is down, could not download.

BTW, I'm not knocking any of the other cm7 builds. They are definitely awesome, and I love that the Android community does what it does.

wi-fi problems?
Just flashed it. Looks great! However, when I turn on wifi to setup my Google account, restore apps, etc., it stays on for a few seconds (won't show any of the open networks in my building) then just turns off.
Also Twitter sync doesn't work (try to sync Twitter with existing contacts but it automatically switches to option back to 'Don't Sync')
Anyone else having this problem or know a solution?

I can't tell ya what ROM to run, obviously, but to me, this is leaps and bounds beyond the ones that are just direct/simply cm7 builds, as those have no real enhancements. This build, runs amazing actually. Screen shots, it's really just stock vanilla. The only thing different, is the background. Just head to the other Villain ROM (senseless) threads, and you'll see what the bg/boot animation look like.
Also comes pre-packed with GB keyboard, along with GB launcher. Smokin' fast.

The reboot fixed the wifi problem. Thanks! Twitter still won't sync (and after reboot, asked for user/pass again). Any thoughts?

I can't tell ya what ROM to run, obviously, but to me, this is leaps and bounds beyond the ones that are just direct/simply cm7 builds, as those have no real enhancements. This build, runs amazing actually. Screen shots, it's really just stock vanilla. The only thing different, is the background. Just head to the other Villain ROM (senseless) threads, and you'll see what the bg/boot animation look like.
Also comes pre-packed with GB keyboard, along with GB launcher. Smokin' fast.

I'm also too lazy to wipe lol
Installing as I type, will let you guys know how it goes.
EDIT:
Works great, but again, no mother trucking Google Market.
I swear someone should put google market apk up so we can install that as soon as we flash a rom.
It's speedy.

Hello !
After nearly 18 months using various roms made by various brilliant people i have learnt allot, and today i have spent all day making my own rom and i am proud to share it with everyone.
I have tested on my phone and there are no issues, atleast no issues i can fix...
The History of this ROM dates back to the dev AdamG, I believe this ROM was once the "OxyGen" ROM which I was a fan of and used on the HTC Desire I once used to own, so this ROM is kinda nostalgic for me LOL

Features
Tytungs GPS Libs 2.1 NMEA
Warrens Awesome Desire 2.6.35 Kernel.
ROBOTO Fonts !.
Old Hacked Market (Just means it wont self update and can see all apps).
Dorimanx's Awesome Memory tweaks, these tweaks allow for more apps to run all the time in memory and the Net effect is... more of that ram gets used instead of wasted.
And the usual..
De-odexed
Zipaligned
Rooted
BusyBox
A2SD+
Cache2SD
Nano Text Editor Support
Bash Shell Support
Huge APN List
Init.d Support
Android 2.3.4
Screen DPI 192
Very Slim - <100 100 MB, you could infact use a 10/100/5 or 5/100/5 partition layout
I will now explain the philosophy of the rom.
Its about keeping Android just... Android and nothing else. Let the user choose how to use the phone, Android is all about customising and choosing how we want to use the phone, so removing every single app that can be replaced or installed from market is just the first step.
Under the hood, this rom has all the goodies you come to expect from modern HD2 Roms, It has the tweaks but it is kept conservative, STABILITY is the primary focus, this rom is still franticly fast but any tweak or any setting that subtracts from stability is out the window.
Before posting this rom i have used the 2.6.35 kernel for two weeks using AOSP android and i can say without a doubt it is stabil, the only thing is its not 100% finished thus the camera and bluetooth issues, but at least the camera can be replaced.
Issues
Kernel Has Camera Issues, so stock camera app is no good, please install the free app called "Camera Fun" and you can take pictures again. The App has different modes, select Normal for Normal pics.
Bluetooth may or may not work for your device.
Install Instructions
First of all, use the attached 4EXT recovery and make sure your sd-ext is using EXT4, it helps with data loss prevention and speed.
Next, after booting up the first time the market is not visible in the app list until you add a google account.
First thing you need to install is "SuperUser" true to the philosophy it is not included in the system apps
After its installed root will work perfectly, and update the SU binary when you get a chance.
Please update the adfree hosts with adfree app or after the rom has been running for a few hours you will get major battery drain, the old adfree host file blocks google analytics, it keeps trying over and over and thus the battery drain.
Enjoy !

Has anyone tried this? how is look? Feedback Pleaaaase
How is the name of the clock widget in the screenshots ?
There is no camera! You didnt mention that in the first post. I ported that rom for personal use and was able to get the camera but camcorder would force close. Do you have plans to fix the camera?
please upload the kernel from this rom. thanks

Oh sorry when my op got half deleted i forgot to put that back.
Its actually the kernel it has camera issue.
Please install the application free called camera fun but there is no camcorder support in kernel yet.
I'm going to make a dorimanx kernel pack for users to help out.
And I'll also attach the camera apk.
Ok, edited the cwm zip so it has the right file-name for modules and removed its libaudio.so since when I have changed it myself the ROM wont boot.
Try it and let me know how it goes.
Another thing, do a backup before you flash the kernel...

You can get the Widgets on the first home screen... If u miss the widgets soo much just install another Launcher(mayb MIUI with a iPhone theme?)
thanks, i like the look of this rom very much....will test now...p.s. I made aboot animation of the apple logo that sort of pulses if you want it?
::EDIT::
p.s. a quick look on their site says that there is a new version released today, version 2.1....maybe you could port this too? I couldn't work out how to download it ha ha
"Installation
1. Make Sure You're On The Latest CWM"
Where can I find the link to take the last verzion.Thanks.And sorry for my question
just installed, and so far so good.....rom runs very smooth and fast.
only one annoyance that i've noticed is that it very often pops up with an error about updating the system because it's not official version rom? this may be resolved if we can find a way to manually prevent the phone from checking for updates?
any devs know if a way to do this?
::EDIT::
just tested the rom with Data2SDInstallerNXE2.zip and I now have 1gb for app storage and it's running great and smooth still....
