[ROM]Any Rom Recommendations? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

-So ive tried lots of roms, i can't decide whats best tbh ive tried the following-
DeFroST 6.1
CyannogenMod 6.1.1
MIUI [Latest]
All Sense Roms, Including HD ports
Gingerbread [all, and they are not stable, so no Gingerbread plz]
Oxygen 1.0.4

eMIUI. Youtube it. You will love it.

I tried Oxygen 2.0 RC6 (w/ Gingerbread) and it's lovely, only it absolutely kills my battery, wifi, gps etc all off, I'm lucky to get 3 hours of screen-on before it's dead.

if thats ment as a joke, its not a good one. its fully readable, even my little sis could read this. Well guess the little line at the bottom of the thread text says it "any good and bad opinions are welcome".. but would be great to actually suggest a ROM that i havn't tried. Anyway i chanegd to CM 7! i did not try that ROM, so i am trying it now. And so far its the best Gingerbread ROM avalible.

I guess it's just as stabe as Oxygen.
And as far as I have read there will be no more updates for Oxygen before the OTA is out.
I have to say I haven't tried Oxygen, but I think they use the same source ?
Anyway rooting my Desire and putting on a custom rom is the best decision I have done for my phone. I have topped it off by putting on the CM7 Hboot, giving me lots of space for apps on the phone.

AFAIK Oxygen is maintened by AdamG.
Adam worked on OpenDesire earlier.

Yes maintained by AdamG, but the source is still the AOSP from Google.
And CM 7 uses that also.
They each have their own additions to the code, but I guess the core is the same.
I've also flashed Oxygen ROM first and than after sometime later MIUI-Au.
In terms of customization (UI, themes, options,etc.) and details, I can say that MIUI wins..
I'm glad I rooted my Desire since I don't have internal memory space issues anymore, only thing that maybe bothers me since I rooted my phone is that battery drains up quicker than with Sense.. maybe I'm wrong..
Redux RC6 - stable and fast. Im running it with the coutts .38 kernel and it's smooth....
There's always a bug somewhere for me and it is very annoying (no matter what ROM I use). So, I'm back to a stock Froyo (even though it is not my favourite!)

I did the same. i mean why to use a custom rom if you can't use your phone at 100% ( for example use camera or radio). ok you get more space, so what?
i have to confess i liked seeing my desire on gingerbread and if i find a close to custom full working rom i ll flash it again.

best Android 2.3 + Sense Rom

Hello guys,
I can't decide which Android 2.3 + Sense Rom I should flash on my DHD.
there are the following Roms to choose:
- LeeDroid HD 2.3.4 beta 3
- CoreDroid V4
- Android Revolution HD 4.0 beta 1
- VillainRom 2.0.1
- RCMix HD 4.2
Which Rom did you choose and why did you choose it ???
Thanks very much
VillainROM because Nathan, the maker of it, made also many very excellent ROMs for the HTC Hero and so I trust him that he'll also make good ROMs for Desire HD.
i had leedroid 2.2 and it worked fine. then i wiped my phone and installed leedroid 2.3, but only part of sense showed up on my phone! really weird. then i flased RCmix 2.3 and it works brilliant!
you mean RCMix HD 4.2, right ??
If you MUST use Sense (I dont know why...) The Beta ARHD 4.0 is your best bet. Its a good experience so far.
That said, I am a CM7 User, and I hate Sense, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.
I had the same question some time ago and it's often a thing of personal decision. So you probably will have to try for yourself. All the ROMs have good performance.
I'm using Revo HD because it looks like stock but with nice tweaks.

Only reason that I use sense is because I like some of the Sense apps(Dialer and messaging mainly)
I'd Choose either of Revolution or Leedroid , both are gr8 roms, the others listed Tbh i havent flashed those on my DHD so can't really give my opinion on those tilli try em out. i've used leedroid since v.1.5 and its been my personal fave one to use daily.

Actually I am concerned about the daily usability of the different builds and if it's worth to jump to gingerbread seen the source is a leaked build probably in very early stage. I would like to try it but I feel so confortable with AR3 ... Please someone tell me I would not regret it

You could always back up your rom before flashing ?
I would obviously do it, but I am so lazy that was wondering if this rom is worth it ... I promise I'll do my homeworks and let you know here if it is
Android Revolution HD 4.0 beta 1 without a doubt.
Beta 2 out tomorrow so maybe you should wait for that one to flash.

Any idea what time beta 2 is being released?? Im looking forward to going to Gingerbread but am completely reliant on my phone for work and dont have a spare so want it to be as stable and have everything working before i take the plunge!! Also does anyone know if the GB roms can be overclocked yet and which radio should be used??
Thanks in advance!!
Nevermind, just checked and Beta 2 is OUT NOW!!!!
I am using leedroid 2.3.4 beta 4 r2. The reason i'm running this is that i have used his leedroid vesion on my phone since i bought it, and that he is very quick with updates and fixes. Also lee's rom is always lightning fast!

that is a good place to start - although some of the links are incorrect and I think some are in the wrong categories which is a shame
lothaen, thanks i gave it a go, i have come to the conclusion that i hate sense, i love the way it looks and the customization, but when you get down to the nitty gritty things, i hate it lol
I like sense - but thats just my opnion
fair enough, i want to like it tho

Same with me.
Tried leedroid, oxygen, cm6, cm7, various HD ports and settled down to miui.us 1.7.22.

I love sense and I will go back to it at some point, waiting on Droidzone to update his gingerburst RoM. But at the moment am using MIUI data2ext and its bloody great, love everything about it, at first it looks abit iphoney but you can download alot of themes and change the look.
So try MIUI
No Sense no HTC. If you want no sense buy SG2
And BTW LeeDroid rox
Cool AceS Mix v2,very fast
but no chinese touch input
Beso your hardcore mate, if i can get a sgs2 for £150 of ebay i would mate, but to be honest i hate samsung stuff so it'd be an opx2 for me mate
actually i have tried the 2 hd senses, they feel very laggy to me, is the normal senses a bit faster, i might give them a go, just to spice things up, but even tho i hate apple stuff, i love the miui rom, so classy, i might find a sense rom for backup for when i have an urge for it
The only thing why I would consider miui is auto brightness which works fcuking awesome with it. Otherwise, I'm sticking to my Sense integration wrapped in my LauncherPro theme
im downloading leedroid 3.0.8.2, not the hd one, i'll give it a try, what would you say is the best sense rom? non hd? iv come from having a wildfire,blade and pulse, one thing i will say is that the dev community for the desire is amazing, so many devs, roms, kernels, the works, we are very lucky to be spoilt and have so much to choose from.

Moving to Q&A
the first rom i installed was gingervillain 2.0
ive tried several roms, coming and going between them, they all had advantages/disadvantages. but i always keep ending up installing gingervillain. its does everything i need, its quick, it's sense-less (personally dont like it) and as yet, i dont think ive encountered a bug with it.
now running gingervillain 2.7
Redux 1.2, awesomely fast! original android 2.3 without sense or any other big additions. Clean and stable! no bugs so far!

All sense ROMs are a little bit laggy as they kinda bog down the OS.. if you want a very fast and stable ROM, try an aosp ROM like CyanogenMod7.. its awesome! I've heard Oxygen is also very good, its what I'll be trying next

[Q] Rom help and advice

I have the HTC Wildfire, rooted. Now im wondering which roms beside cm7 are good?

ah i would like but i dont have so much time to try all, thats why im asking here what people think..
i dont care if its and cm, sense, or whatever type of rom, i just want a fast and stable rom
Okay mate,then you should go with Rempuzzle Rom,its fast and stable at the same time and its quite beautiful as well.
Some day give CM9 a try,it has few bugs but still its awesome,I'm in love with it.

hey ,thanks.. i installed cm7.2 today and i am satisfied, and all works perfect.. thats the official stable version.
I had a problem with cm 7.1 , 20 days ago problems started with wifi and data , it wont turn on wifi or data , and sometimes i had crashes when i go to settings..
I will use for now this 7.2 , but can you give me a link to cm9 for htc wildfire? and does it works stable and fast as this? well i dont think so, but i would love to have cm9 on my wildfire..

Here is CM9 for the Wildfire: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1473344
I have just installed it and it's beatiful!
It works pretty fast and there are not so much bugs, so I think I'm going to use it as my main ROM
Since wildfire stock is sense rom. Then I would think you should try rom other than sense first. May be CM7 (Gingerbread) and CM9 (ICS) rom. If you still like to stick to sense rom then try Rempuzzle, Froyo rom with partial sense 4 skin.
thanks for the link ) i dont know willbi try it right now,but i will follow this thread until i see the few bugs fixed.. for now the 7.2 is working great for me.. one thing that i would love to have is either a miui or cm9 rom.. but we will see..
i have one more question,its off topic ,but how can i make my statusbar transparent?

the best one is the one that's best for your needs, not what everyone else says is best for them.
try a few and find out...
but if you have already decided that leedroid is the best, i read the last page of the thread and found this link.
also, you should read the FAQ to set it up properly.

erm.. thats JB 4.2.2
I think the fastest is Mild wild sense ROM. But better try them by yourself because it depends what u need from the ROM etc. I personally use RSK 4.2.2 JB non-sense ROM because its the fastest JB (my opinion) and also I use it for about a week and didn't get any soft reboots. Good luck.

Hi
I'm new in rooting world! until now I read most of these ROMs threads:
GingerBread (AOSP):

MildWild GB-1 Based on Solstice ROM--------------------------------------->[v1.0.7/10th/March/2013]
MildWild based on CyanogenMod7--------------------------------------->[CM 8.0 JG Stable/27th/January/2013]
MildWild based on Oxygen 2.3.2--------------------------------------->[v4.9/23rd/January/2013]
MildWild Based on Redux2 TEST--------------------------------------->[v.MW-9.5/5th/March/2013]
Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) AOSP/SDK:

[ROM/MOD 4.0.4] Marius.a--------------------------------------->[v3.5/8th/March/2013]
And tested these:
MildWild Based on Redux2 TEST--------------------------------------->[v.MW-9.5/5th/March/2013]
&
[ROM/MOD 4.0.4] Marius.a--------------------------------------->[v3.5/8th/March/2013]
I like this ROM: "MildWild Based on Redux2 TEST" be cause It is fast/working all functions except GPRS in my case!! evrything work great and really fast! but after 2 weeks It get slow down!!!
"MildWild Based on Redux2 TEST" was simple at graphics and icons! but that was not important for me! in the other hand "[ROM/MOD 4.0.4] Marius.a" was better in graphics and have some small nice featuers too. but again my GPRS do not work under it and after some hours my WiFi do not work too and some reboot start ........ !!!
as all above friends said, better to test them yourself on your phone but in my opinion it will be wiser that first read most of the users posts/responses at those threads!

Until now best custom ROMs for my Desire /s
..are :
MildWild
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=169552817
Those roms are working for me the best way. Phone is stable and without crashes even thru the fact im apps and tuning maniac
Definitely worth to try them at least.
Hi again m8s
From my last post until now, I was installing and testing this great ROM "MildWild GB-1 Based on Solstice ROM" from MildWild.
For 7 days, It worx great!!! I'm really happy to see not only a Custom ROM work without any problems but also it is much much better than original OS on HTC Desire!!!!!!
Well done MildWild :good:
If @Tobster2113 you did not test it yet, please test it and tell me about your experience! All features are working great and I install some app from Google Play without any problem! (GPRS and WiFi worx without any problems!)
Old School - I've tried most of them, Mildwild makes good roms, used to love his Oxygen ones.
Newer Roms - the RSK one is nice but the open/close app drawer has an non-standard icon and not easily changeable. All of the other JB ones seem very laggy and sooner or later back to Euroskank or a CM7.2.
http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/?rom=cm7&device=bravo
These are obviously my own opinions and others may, and are welcome to disagree
Regards,
Jim
leedroid is one the most stable i have used
I wouldn't really call it the best, but the fastest Sense ROM I have ever had is the one in my signature. I need a fast rom, so this is the best for me.
Recently Founded!
Hi again!
Recently I found this site http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/ . I was testing one of theirs Custom ROM for "ZTE Blade" mobile phone and It was so fast and stable.
Therefore, I will test this ROM http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Bravo_Info for "HTC Desire" too! If until now you did not test these ROMs, Maybe It will be help full!
Note: These ROMs use basic functions and features (To be fast and stable) so to do App 2 SD thing you may need to use this: [SCRIPTS]CronMod-INT2EXT (updated 02/28)
I hope this was helpful!
Good Luck
MRK
