I just got this phone. i've been a g1 user for a while and now i want to get some ideas on everyone's favorite ROM. I'm going to read through and pick one i like, just want some idea of what everyone here runs
I'd suggest u try them all and make a choice. ROMs are like mates there isnt a best one just one best for you.
As Bxsteez said, there is no overall best. But I rather like the EnergyROM releases. I ran the last Warhawk for about a week without seeing any of the posted bugs, but just upgraded to the Genesis line.
The AtomAng ROM is popular, as well. Just go poke around in the ROM dev thread. Try them all. I went through 4 or 5 in the span of 2 days, before I settled on Energy.
hey thanks. i actually just put on the energy ROM and i think i'm in love...don't get me wrong i loved android but this is dope
Theres an Energy Windows mobile 6.5 ROM that's dead stable, stick to manilla 2.1 for now though if you want stability, i'm using a manilla 2.5 ROM and even though i love the new 'swish' features... bug free it aint.
I'd go for the bottom one of the 3.... tried and tested

The best ROM
This has been asked and answered so many times...there is no such "best ROM"
The best ROM is the one that fits better for your personal needs.
My best ROM could not be your best
Try severals till you get the one you like more!

Well your title thread was asking for the best, not for the most popular
Anyway, glad to see you finally search and found your best ROM.
So I don't wanna read the whole thread... which is the best ROM?
Nah Just kidding, I've been using energyrom, since I got the phone, and I love it, like everything about it how its organized, how it grapically looks stock, and how it performs. I lik 6.5 roms, and I'm not into the guys toying with the 2.5 and 2.6 cause I'm tired of beta testing, I want a phone I can enjoy
and as far as android goes, I didn't like it, I haven't followed it since I bricked my G1 beta testing for JF, but I felt suffocated using, I like the free of winmo, and the piracy!
EnergyRom vs MightyRom?
What about performance wise?
Feature wise?
Just wanna gauge the interest of me doing a ROM for the Incredible. The mods list would be just about the same as my EVO ROM, so they would perform about the same.
Link to my EVO ROM so you can see what it looks like

Calkulin. Good to see you here. I used a lot of your project on my Touch Pro. Good job on that and I am sure you are doing a good job on the Android. I know everyone will appreciate your work. I took a look at what you have and like, but I prefer a stock look. I will keep an eye on your work. You never know.
I think that there's always interest in something different, even if only slightly. I'm guessing that the only solid way to find out would be go invest the time in putting one together and seeing what kind of response you get. I'm sure that everyone would agree that having a dev with experience add to our choices would certainly be a more satisfying experience than having a herd of novices (keeping in mind that in all things we were all once novices). The people love choice.
That is a nice clean ROM. I would def try it out.
i would be stocked ...loved all your roms/kitchens for the last few years at ppcgeeks...bring it !!!
im sure once they try it they will love it...i heard mightymike's gone android too...crazy all we need is nrg and its like old times
Im game dude, loved your windows roms
I would definitely be interested... used some of your creations when i had a TP2... ahhh i miss the days of ppcgeeks...
Absolutely! The more the better!
Looks a very polished rom. I'd sport it!
More choice is never a bad thing. I wouldnt use it personally as there are apps installed I would never use but I am sure others would like and use it.
Used to use your TP Rom on PPC Geeks! Would definitely like to see one for the Dinc!!!
I'd use it

Yes, please!
Well, already started working on the ROM, so hopefully I'll have a beta out this week
If you need a tester, feel free to contact me.
Im Down
Looks really clean...I'll give it a shot. A friend said you do some great work. I placed a post over at www.incredibleforum.com as well. Need some testers let me know
Calkulin, will this have the usual bloatware removed?
Need some beta testers, PM me if your available now
Hello all I'm sorry to inform u that I will no longer be developing for the evo. I will be upgrading to the HTC evo shift and yes as soon as its rooted miui will be booted on it and ill b right back here providing updates for the shift.

I saw this over in the MIUI forum and seeing as I have been back and forth with MIUI and Myns ROMS I decided that I would post this here for all developers to see in an attempt to have someone take over the porting and maintenance of MIUI. Original thread can be found here:

Completely agree man. The whole rom is just so unique compared to everything else available. The launcher that miui uses is hands down the best.

I own both and it does feel similar but at the same time its more of a fusion than a straight up copy. Definitely deserves to live on, better than have thousands of Sense ROMs that only differ in how ugly they are.

LOL... Well... I don't know. I like MIUI... And I like Sense... I just like things that are functional. Both of them are. I hope someone picks up MIUI development here because my most favorite thing to do is take aspects of all the different versions (Sense, MIUI, AOSP) est.. and blend them together to create the ROM I want for myself.
Hello beloved ROM Developers ,
I have actually never created a Request thread on XDA, so this is a first. It's a simple request for a ROM port, however, being completely oblivious to ROM development, I am not sure how simple it would actually be to implement it. I have reached out to the original Dev of this ROM, but did not hear anything back, so I thought I'd try my luck here. I am basically an EVO convert, now on VZW, with a DInc. I have been trying various ROMs for the DInc, but for some reason I keep missing the ROM I had on my EVO.
So, here goes nothing. Can someone please be kind enough to try and port this ROM to DInc?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=808656
I understand that there is a similar ROM for DInc, I believe it's called Carbon Fusion or something like that, but in my trial of it, it lacked stability, speed, and the depth of customization that this EVO ROM has in it.
It's a humble request guys, please don't flame me, thanks for reading !

I'm sure you know this already, but just in case, I think Incredible Re-engineered by Chingy and Redemptive Revolution are EVO ROM's. There are also a few others, but cant recall them right now.
But if you want something with new features, and some cool widgets, I suggest you check out The Desire Z ROM's. I wont use anything but Z ROM's now. They are very smooth.

Are you liking this rom for how it works or how it looks? Because it looks like a sense rom. If you like it for how it looks im sure it would be easier to just make a theme.

For the lag, try switching kernels, I was having a little lag also. cant remember what kernel I switched to, but it cleared up the problem.
I also came from a D1, which I had for a year, and I love this Dinc. I am currently running mmmark's port of VirusROm. But I have had great luck with Super-Z standard by wes342

mashed it together with incredibly re-engineered and got it to boot and seems that everything works.
Very cool looking rom! Not sure where I can upload it, but I will if you'd like
edit: booting again and I'll let ya know what happens. This was done quickly and is by no means going to be supported or guaranteed to be identical to the donor rom, but it might be a good start for you.

synisterwolf, I like this ROM for it's perfect blend of looks, performance, stability, and content. I too would not be opposed to a theme, but I thought it might be easier to ask someone to just look at the ROM to see exactly what's in there, and if it could all be cooked into one single ROM for the DInc. Again, I hope someone can do it... I remember hearing that EVO and DInc frameworks and development is very similar. So I wonder if it's only a matter of replacing the base with the latest Verizon, instead of Sprint, and then taking everything that's in the EVO ROM, while changing things that might matter, like the keyboard or the camera app, perhaps?
I haven't tried the Z ROMs at all, but this is because everyone one of them have bugs listed out on the main page, with camera issues, and even lag, as you mentioned... Perhaps the Thunderbolt dump and other things might be able to assist with these gaps?
Thanks again for the interest here, guys. If you would also like to see this ROM ported, please be sure to mention it in this thread, I am sure some generous developer will take a look at it ?

If nothing pans out with getting this ported, try a Z rom. They appear to be very similar. Dont be scared off by the Issues they talk about. Dev's seem to do this for the Z, but they are very nice ROM's. The only issue that remains is basically the 720 recording, which I dont use. I have never experienced the 3G drops, and most dont.

alright here's the deal. I mashed this between chingy51o's incredibly re-engineered and xxbabboixx228's rom. I take absolutely no credit for the work and it is not identical to babiboi's rom.
Also you still see some remnants of chingy's rom in it that someone else if they want can clean up if they want to make a release from it.
I have not pm'd either of them to ask if I can make a release of it, as I do not intend to support it or make a public release thread etc. etc.
I will post it on dropbox and like I said, I'm not claiming any of the work or this rom, anyone can ask for permission from them to start a release thread for it and I only made this for the OP and my personal use.
edit: going another route, I'll report in a few. I really don't want to release anything, no matter what my intentions are, with parts from their rom without permission. Going to go for a direct port rather than mash together, don't really see the point in a frankenstien mess

I was not sure if you were open to taking requests to make changes to your ROM, based on User requests, so I didn't want to bother you. The EVO ROM was almost exactly how I wanted it, so it was just easy to explain, that is, just request a straight port.
I hope you are not offended or anything man, I liked your ROM too!

What is The Best and Stable ROM for HTC One X?
Currently i am using Revolution HD...
Post your Opinions and suggestions.
Godbless
In my opinion there is not much difference right now. Most roms if not all are stable with no problems.
I have tried LeeDrOiD, CoreDroid, Villain rom and InsertCoin until now and all of them seem about the same to me in terms of speed and stability
We need custom kernel
ARHD is probably one of the best and most popular.
IMO, they're all around the same and pretty similar besides the fact that some are senseless.
I think we'll really see bigger differences when kernel sources come out and kernel devs start working their magic. Then the combination of kernel and ROM will be big and some may be much more battery efficient than others.
I'm intrigued at the new ROM touch x-treme which is coming out soon I believe, he's uploading.......and hes aiming at battery life. IMO, most important thing since Tegra 3 with all it's cores should already be able to handle UI and everything with ease and the focus on battery life is a biggie to me.
Anything above 5 hours screen usage time would be great, as the phone should barely drain with the companion core during standby.
threads like these usually get closed. you're supposed to read the features/changelogs and look at the pics for the theme. i want ICS blue, so i'm trying the 2 i see with that first.
yah iknow, i want the opinion and testimonies of others.
uhm lets say it like this "air is everywhere but we still need a fan to feel it better".
Read and Analyze first before saying anything.

I am aware that this thread can/may be removed but I think it's a very useful thread...
Cause although I highly appreciate each and every developer, as users, we shall have the chance to openly discuss our experiences ask for other users opinions. Cause reading only changelogs, and looking at the themes don't mean anything especially for someone like me, who is a newbie in Android... =)
And where else can we compare the ROMs, if not here?! Under their own threads? No i think that will be inappropriate...
Now, to the point...
I have my One X for 1 week and already tried first LeeDrOiD (de-sensed) and currently Android Revolution HD (w/sense)... But I could not decide on which one to use...
Both of them still drains lots of battery... I was sick of my iPhone4 because after 2 years of usage It needed to recharge by afternoon if I used it intensely during the day, but now I absolutley need to re-charge every 6 hours if I use it
A solution should be found to this, so I got very interested in your reply cause I was not aware of this ROM... my bad, was looking at only Leedroid & ARHD because of their popularity..
As of now, I can see that the rom is out there, although at the beginning of the topic it says uploading...
Did you have the chance to give it a try? I will appreciate if you can share your experience cause I got tired of changing my ROM and make all necessary installations & logins again and again...
(BTW, which you guys prefer... Sense or de-Sense?)

I use InsertCoin, which is smooth, fast and rock solid. It used to be a great ROM on the original Desire, which posed some problems to really test developers. InsertCoin met the test.
However, given the superb hardware on the One X, I would expect most of the present ROMs to be much the same... excellent.
Battery life is the holy grail, but as the screen is the main drain I can't imagine what can be done other than tinker with the brightness.
