Hi there!
I'm happily using the LeeDroid 1.7 at the moment and I was just wondering which ROM is the best?
I'm looking for something with clean and basic functionality, no bloatware and stuff i really just don't need. preferably App2SD or App2SD+
The reason i ask is because Leedroids last "features list" looks abit heavy on the stuff I don't need side of things.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Open Desire worked well for me but then went back to NeoPhuTe 5.3 as I prefer sense ui

I'd like to install a ROM that has all the bloatware deleted and a bare minimum of apps installed. But I would also still like to use the sense UI is their such a ROM?
Thanks
Virtuous removes much of the common bloat and allows you to remove even more, if you so desire, through the included Virtuous Buddy utility. Give it a try and see if it works for you.
this probably belongs in q&a
there are several stripped sense roms
redemption, virtuous, uncommon sense, and others im sure
Wrong forum.

Hello Fellaz!
Im new user with desire and now im seeking light weight + stable + fast rom.
I managed to root my phone nicely, installed few roms and ended up using LeeDroid for now. It seems much better than original.
Q2: Whats the best way to get totally rid of bloatware(peep,twitter,stocks, etc..)

The easiest way is to remove the .apks from the zip before you flash, but you can use adb commands to remove them, like here.
I keep forgetting to remove footprints. Stupid piece of junk!
Redux rc6 clean small light weight gingerbread rom, an use the oxygen Hboot and you will have 295mb internal free for apps

Try CyanogenMod 6.1.1. Fast, stable and amazing. For removing stock apps you can use AppAdmin (free app on Market).

I believe Oxygen 2.0 is the smallest right now. Awesome ROM.

Redux rc6 is also, it fits in oxygen Hboot and have the same amount of free space for apps,
Also has working video camera and updated market.
I love oxygen 2.0 but I'm waiting for the N1 OTA update before I go back, redux just feels smoother and more responisve, also comes with CPU settings inbuilt, also has amazing battery life

Thanks guys for the nice replys.
Running now with redux, super smooth and battery wise.
BIG THANKS

i would say Redux rc6 ! it's superfast and stable, not a single reboot or anything.
EDIT: i was too slow
running CM7 with ~220MB RAM Free, when i was on the stock 2.2 Sense with mostly the same apps i had only ~90MB free
Hi,
My friend has a HTC Desire HD with sense 2.1. I was wondering if there was a way of getting the 2.1 camera app onto the HTC Desire? Is it possible to? Is there already a way which i havent found? Also im using the 2.2 Stock ROM with the sense UI.
Thanks In Advance

You could just switch to a Desire HD ROM. Plenty of them in the development section.
Don't know if there's a way of porting just the camera app.

I know but the thing is i dont want to risk ruining my phone totally by rooting it and etc. Since if i tried i probably would mess it all up. But i may consider trying it maybe then.
Rooting your phone is daunting at first but trust me its a lot easier than you think. Plus its the only way you would be able to make the changes you want. Check out this link, its very helpful for new members

It all looks very complicated, but i think i should be able to follow it! When you root the phone do you still get like all the normal android stuff? Market and etc? I know thats probably a stupid question but i really know nothing about rooting phones. Also do you get the like HTC Apps, Eg "Facebook For HTC Sense" and etc?
Rooting your phone doesn't change anything other than giving you access to the root directory in your handset, which is required in order to flash a custom rom. Then its up to you to choose a rom that suits your needs. Have a browse of the roms that are available. make sure you choose a sense based rom if you're looking for sense apps. I personally prefer aosp roms as they're based on the pure android releases and I find the sense roms to be a bit laggy. Currently using cyanogenmod 7.1 and its awesome, fast and stable! Keep in mind that facebook, gmail etc are still available on the aosp roms, you don't need sense for those

Ive managed to successfully route my phone and added a custom ROM to. I added the CoolSense one . However now i have Hardly any memory on my memory card now :/. I only have 500MB free. And thats without my pictures, apps and etc :/. If i were to get a new SD card. How would i go about getting all the ROMs and that to the new SD card. Or would i have to do it all over again?
With the new method called revoluitonary the rooting process could not be easier:

LeeDroid HD is a direct port from Desire HD to Desire. If you flash this rom, your phone will have all the software features of Desire HD, including the camera app.
Just remember that Desire HD has 8MP camera and more RAM, so it will always capture better pics and function more smoothly.

SuperNova Extreme By Droidzone
Well I have tried SuperNova Extreme By Droid Zone.
However The only problem I am experiencing right now is that My Phone just hangs up. And I have to pull the batteries out. Tried several ROMs such as Pyramid 007
SuperNova Extreme Gingerburst etc but the Phone just hangs and I have to pull the battery out sometimes 10 - 20 time a day and that's why I switched back to CM7.1.
Hey anderl78 what about your ROM do you think such problems exist.

I haven't seen such problem till now. Sounds like a undervolt or overheating issue. You can try it and we will see what we can do.

I used alex-v froyo rom for some while and very happy with it.
It's very close to the original htc stock rom, but I had about 100 apps installed.
Now changing to alex-v's gingerbread rom...
Also very close to the original htc stock rom..but promises ENDLESS memory.
;-)
I run the runny AIO 5.0.3 nu sebastiaan15. If you are s -off and have a 1gb ext4 partition on your sd choose the AP2SDX. I have around 700 MB left for my apps

I am trying your rom for a day. It's great! really, great job man!
Have given Runnymede another try (four days), but to me it still lags a bit too much.
Good suggestions.
Although I want one that has a gingerbread quick settings and gingerbread power and data dashboard apps (I've tried apps from the market but they're nothing near the same :-() are there any like that? Or a way of adding those to a stock-ish rom without much interference? I'm using data++ because of the speed it gives over data2ext etc.

Try widgetsoid. I have configured it to my liking and I find it much better than quicksettings. ;-)
If you insist on gingerbread, try the RevolutioN rom in my signature. IMHO these two roms are the very best for our desire.

wel that was my 1st rom i used but have not tried it after update is it stable??? i want somthin for daily use... some 1 plz advice

I like SBGS / SensEVolutioN.
It's just what what the Desire needs: Not too many bells & whistles, so it's reasonably fast, and a bit extra internal memory.
thanks man i will try them... and c whats good for me..
Nw I have a new phone, I am going to revert to RCMix 2.1. Recently I have tried the Runny's and various others, but this one was always solid as a rock.
Will be perfect if I need to fire up the Desire for any reason, as I know the ROM will work and not be buggy at all.
Or you can also try stock android roms ? like dgb or redux ? With stability and speed no problems
DGB is pretty solid. Just depends if you want Sense or AOSP?
Random restarts are likely to be caused by a damaged motherboard, especially if your phone is rebooting when running intensive apps like angry birds and getting warm at the base. You should get your phone back to there supplier to be fixed.
