I am fairly new to android but have enjoyed this community's help with my phone mods. I am now looking for a good 2.2 ROM which is as close to stock as possible. Any thoughts would be helpful as there are so many versions and different threads to dig through. Thanks!
You should try Sky Raider. I've been using it since version 1.0 and love it.
Is the Sky Raider rom faster than the current CM6 builds?
Not faster, but so much more stable. I personally prefer CM6, but until a .32 kernel is incorporated and the kinks are ironed out, Skyraider is the ROM for me.

Guess I'll give it a shot. I've been having random reboots with CM6

+1 I'm using the 8/1 leak until CM6 incorporates the .32 kernel.
Doesn't SkyRaider vanilla still incorporate some Sense UI stuff? I've wanted to give SkyRaider a go but I'd rather have full-on vanilla.

is there something for a xPERIA X10I ??
@trombone dixie sr vanilla incorporates all vanilla looks and actual sense programs. i should know, because i designed a lot of the themeing, although it was finoshed very nicely by ihtfp

dont have much to compare it to yet, but...
I'm a big fan of the work Adrynalyne has been putting out. I've been using his Second Wave which is a modified tweak of the 8/1 leak. He also has a mixed ROM using EVO framework mixed with DInc stuff to make it work. Haven't heard anything bad really about SR or Jager though. In the end, best to play with them til you fond what you're looking for. I'm sure soon enough the real 2.2 DInc release will come and it'll start all over again.

Im running Adrynalynes EVO port ...or FrankenROM as we are calling it. I have yet to have an issue with it. I have tried CM, Jager, YASR ... but have really liked the FrankenROM.

This is where I get Adrynalyne's work - this is HIS WORK. I use the frankenrom and 1.115hydra #1 and I get over 1400 quadrant every time I check. He does great work - I have used vanilla and sense work he has done. I prefer sense layout, and it works great

does his franken rom b2 have the stock white notifications bar, or the sense black one? because i like desensitized, but i'd also like to keep the black notifications bar. also, can i run the .zip's to remove the 911 notifications icon and add the round battery mod? if so, then i'll definitely give it a try.
adrynalyne's Frankenrom is the best I used. Now if only this forum wasnt full of people who flame decent developers, Adrynalyne might post his roms here.

Ok so I have ran both I am currently running cm7 and I like it but I kinda still like sense so really irk what to choose as a daily drivervwhat do ya think?
sent from Cm7
I use CM7 as my daily, and I find it quite enjoyable. Sometimes I change the screen color just cuz I can.
I've tried both and enjoy sense more. It just seems more organized to me, but I've been using it since it was called touchflo3d on the HTC diamond.
Maybe I just don't like change, lol.
I really liked CM6 and 7 for the customization options but they were just buggie on my phone... maybe it was the kernels I used, maybe some random app or something but neither of them really had everything working correctly that I need/use...like sometimes GPS wouldnt work, sometimes it was the camera, both of which I use on a daily basis....
Sense on the other hand is much easier to find a ROM/kernel combo that allows everything to work as it should, with decent battery life... Has good UI IMO but lacks some of the customization options that CM had... I really couldnt tell an actual difference between the two types in terms of speed, although the "benchmark" tests always said there was a big difference
Just my opinion but I like Sense as a daily and then flash CM for a few days here and there, then nandroid back to my Sense....
I like CM7, but what you're really asking is whether Sense is better than ADW. Personally, I use LauncherPro Plus.
Give MIUI a go.....it's smooth, fast, very different looking....

I'm currently running EViO with ADW.Launcher and I'm very pleased. It isn't as light as CM7, but seems very stable and the battery life (1.8) is nice.

Have you used any others? Fresh Evio Myns all run pretty fast with no bugs for me.
Personally for a daily driver i use "Sense". mainly because i have 4g in my area and use it. Once CM gets 4g bug free i will probably switch to CM.
I put sense in quotes because i remove everything i can from it including the rosie ui (i use launcherpro) and the htc widgets. Hate the rosie UI but like copy/paste and 4g.
Yea...I've used alot of roms since getting my htc....and I liked myns and caulkins...but mikfroyo with a netarchy kernel has had the best results for myself

I finally took the plunge and flashed MIUI this morning. I played with it for about 2 hours and and then nand restored MikfroYo 4.4 because i missed it.
I just couldn't see myself getting used to the iphone feel and the lack of wiimax really bummed me out. It was pretty fun having such a completely different feel though.

I know there are a lot of users out there that love SenseUI.. I've been contemplating starting a theme for the current Inc GB ROMs that will look exactly like sense, but would like to know if there is actually a demand for this.. It will obviously not contain certain features of sense, but instead, all of the gingerbread goodness.
Any thoughts or input is greatly appreciated.
I'd love to see adw theme with the sense like launcher that's it

There are already 2 in the Android themes section of the main forum. Not to discourage you. If anything I guess it shows that the demand is there.

The ones listed in the android theme section are for the T-Mobile theme chooser if im not mistaken so they only work for CM7, im sure there are people that use OMFGB and Evervolv GB would like something like this.

Yeah, I found some for the hero and other mdpi devices, but nothing for the Inc that looked usable. Maybe ill go ahead and start on it and see what kind of response it gets..
I think I'm more curious to see if people with upgrade to GB if they had something that looked like SenseUI as I know a lot of people just prefer how sense looks as opposed to AOSP, and we don't have GB sense.

I would definitely try it on CM7.
I wish we could get the Sense mail widgets as well on CM7, or anything remotely close.

The theme I'm working on isn't solely launcher based. Its an entire system theme. With the launcher themes, you only get a small part of the sense feel.

optimized z forsure unless someone gets sense 3.0 working or alot of new things start showing up im probably just gonna stick with optimized z.. this is honestly one of the best, smooth, fast ROm i have used
i tried it and after a while it kept rebooting on me so i uninstalled...
I had several issues with Optimized Z, but Incredibly Re-Engineered Z has been rock solid the last two days.

I just installed Stock Sense 2.0 after getting tired of bugs in MIUI, I love it so far. It seems really smooth and stable, way better than the stock ROM for Incredible. I don't understand why people think the original is faster, so many conflicting opinions!
The other Sense 2.0 ROMs look good but I always dislike other people's theming choices, currently using the slate HTC skin and I think it looks great.

Warm Z 2.2. Nobody knows his sh!t like incubus and myn.

The MikG rom would probably be your best bet for everything to work like stock.
It's based on stock, but with some tweaks to make it better and more efficient.

Man I would go with decks 1.3 or 1.3d try and see which one works better on her phone, make sure you set it up for her, and I would add launcher pro to it, set widgets and shortcuts, and theme. My wife loved it, no problems at all, you could also flash the data governor killer zip, so her 3g is always at top speed

I would say Tommy's classic v0.0.5 final untilled the new final comes out. Its very quick and stable. Its the only sense rom that has kept my from going back to aosp.
i say go with cm7 or shooter rls 5.5 both are great roms but cm7 will give her a bit more battery life.
So what we're Reeeeally trying to say is, They're all great roms. You'll just have to try them until you find the one that suits you...(meanwhile, behind the facade of an innocent sounding phone hacker,drlzanej is underhandedly trying to create another "Flashoholic". dun,,,,dun dundun, duuun)
ODJ DUB HD BLISS! I love this rom and everything works. Also has a blue theme etc.! Just make sure and partition the sd card as directed.

I would recommend
Fresh
SOSX
Classic
MikG
Synergy
Shooter
Derp3D
The first three are sense 1.0 tweaked to the max
The second two are sense 2.1 with 3.0 widgets
The last two are 3D ports. Sense 3.0
All are fully functional and well built. All depends on what she likes.

i was just looking for the name of the rom to let him know i got it fot my girlfreind and she loves it you got down on that one diablo keep up the good work. Pink Pussycat is the best fot the wife trust me shell like it
I'm defiantly a flashaholic. That's the biggest problem. There are many ROM's out there that I've tried. I prefer a sense 3.5 ROM but it lacks 4G among other things. I put her on the MikG ROM and it seems to be running fine. I had a stock OTA on there but the phone kept getting FC's however; I recently found that she's been in Titanium Backup removing files that she has no idea interact with the OS. Silly wife, tweaks are for peeps!
Don't know if this is solved it not...but If you want sense I recommend Tommy tomatoes classic, for soso it's decks all the way...find one that works with a2sd and your set
Rock and roll ain't never gonna die...
