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.

+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.

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.

Pick ur flavor, sense ui with skyrider, or vanilla with cm6. Both great in their own respects, certain issues plague both. Through no fault of the devs might i add. Also, this needs to be moved to general as it does not pertain to actual development, just conversation regarding roms.

I have cm6 and I do love it. But lately it has been goofing up and so I tried skyrider. Loved that completely. Then I way crushed because I couldn't use swype with it. so yeah. Guess I'll just stay with cm6 unless you know a way to get swype to work on skyfire? That would be amazing

Im not using a froyo rom but i do like pmf yasr 1.1 its pretty stable and has all features working unlike cm6/skyraider.

Thank you so much for the rom suggestions.
myns gets incredible respect and is considered the highest quality sense rom. fresh is the best slightly modded rom (and i mean very slightly). cyanogenmod is anything but stock (non-sense), but is held at the top of the respect chain for building thier rom from the ground up. no 4g though. miui is also another great non-sense rom.
i personally like ava's roms. he will be releasing another one extremely soon. he makes minor changes to increase speed, make smoother, looks much much cooler. a bunch of minor changes (he is on his 10th version) makes for a good rom. ava froyo v10 should be here soon.
IM running SPRINT LOVERS ROM .... It seems not too many people talk about this rom and I wonder why...

i am using that, and its working great. seems to also contain improved battery life.
read the specs on the custom roms, some have features that may be missing (for example, 4G or full camera support)
and also remember to do the backups!!

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
Warm Z 2.2. Nobody knows his sh!t like incubus and myn.
Im not familiar with the new 3.0 roms so I was trying to get some general opinions on which ones are good, stable, fast, good battery life, etc.
Everything I currently have is in my signature.
Have a link to Pyramid? I wasnt able to find it in Google.
I am pretty sure this is the Pyramid ROM he was talking about.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171892&highlight=pyramid
But I am currently on Synergy and I am really liking it, it took about a day for it to settle down but now its working like a charm.
Any others?
Also does anyone have any experience with the ROM in my signature? Id be interested in a side by side comparison of the two.
Synergy is really nice.
Seems to be less than a handful of worthwhile ROM's in the 3.0 arena.
Go with OVORene Community Rom is really nice stable and fast

Are you looking to upgrade to 2.3 or stick with 2.2?
If you want to stick with 2.2, my vote is for SkyRaider 4.3 on the Team Bamf site. It is my all-time favorite. I don't use it anymore simply because it is still 2.2.
I've got no advice on sense 2.3, as I use AOSP now.
I gotta have me some notification toggles (which SkyRaider has)....

i just installed the stock+ rom... so far so good.
i like the stock phone but wanted to fix things like ext4 to fix the low memory issues which lead me to needing non-stock kernel. stock+ rom / kernel got installed this morning and so far so good!
Did you try the messaging icon under all apps? Sometimes I have to remove the messaging icon on the main screen and drag the all-apps one back to the front screen. Then all is fine again...not sure why???
I've personally tried a few Sense 3.5 ROMs and the upgrades to the interface are really slick. I'd definitely recommend giving a couple of them a shot.
Try Nils Business Gingersense 3.5 or Prime XL 3D to get a feel for it.
