There is entirely too much info available... I want a stable sense gingerbread rom for my incredible. A working camera is a must. Does such a beast exist? Links would be great. Thanks.
Sent from my HTC Incredible using XDA App
Such a beast does not exist YET. So far we've got a half working port of Incredible S which I believe is 2.3. I would really like to see it perfected. Until then the best sense ROM would be a Desire Z port, those are frigging fast.
EDIT: The Inc. S isn't GB, the Huashen or w/e is GB.

Though I do not have links handy, I will also put this information out there for you. At this time, there are 3 main gingerbread ROMs for Incredible, Cyanogenmod 7 (RC1 is out as well as nightlies), Evervolv (very slow updates), and OMFGB (kicked off this site). Currently, Cyanogenmod is the most stable and for me, the fastest. One thing the camera is missing though is 720p. This will likely be the case until we have a sense gingerbread build like you are talking about. The mentioned Incredible S port is still 2.2 based but has the new 2.5 senseui. The only gingerbread sense build out period right now is the one leaked for the Huashan (spelling?) but that has yet to be ported to Incredible yet.
Both CM7 and OMFGB have "working" cameras, but maybe not to the extent that you would want them.. it's still a work in progress.
I suggest going with chingys incrediblely re -engineered Rom.. very stable very fast with lous kernels

Hi Guys, I hope this topic is not repeated before.
I have HTC EVO 4G and since it got sluggish I want to root it I am a beginner so I dont have much experienced about rooting.
I looked here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Supersonic/ROMs
there are many different roms available for Evo and also I checked here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=951057
I found out the most populars are :
1- MIUI and 2-MikFroyo
Since I like SENSE I chose MikFroyo.
What do you guys thing about Gingerbread ? what are the differences ?
Is MikFroyo Sense 1, or 2 or 3 ?
I've heard Sense 2 and 3 have many bugs...
I wanna stick with Sense 1 and also having 4G is very important for me.
please Advise
thanks
Those roms are very popular... when you root, just create a backup and try each rom. That way you can make your own decision of what you like. If you don't like the rom just flash another or restore your backup.
Myn. RLS 5 its older but still great and my fav. Is has cured my flashing addiction for 8 months I had rls3-5

I am a huge fan of Myn's ROM's. Still running RS 5. Have tried tons of others, but always go back to Myn's.

You won't go wrong with myn Rom. But if you care about speed and performance along with lots of themes and options, mikfroyo is a great starting point. I am a long time user of both mik and myn roms and I like them both.

I'd like to put in a good word for Koni's Elite. Series 3 is stable and smooth like butter, and Series 4is on its way. Great theming throughout, and still active development. Full of win!

I like Sense too, I think most roms (including Myns and MikFroyo) are unnecessarily cheesy in their design. Keep in mind if you want to run gingerbread roms, the kernel won't work properly with Novatec screens (stays full brightness). I'm currently on the DesireHD port but it has no 4g :\
Plutonium roms are very good. The most recent update was today, err yesterday. Everything works and it looks fantastic
ok, here goes.
first of all, yes this has been asked a thousand times per day, but people have fun answering them
sense roms are based off stock evo sprint software. if you like sense roms, you best choices will be:
myn's warm twopointtwo, for a smooth, themed, and slick stockish experiance, try this oldie but goodie.
mikfroyo, updated more often. optimized way over the top. i personally don't like the theme, and think if you want that speed go for aosp, but whatever. a bunch of people like it.
koni's elite. one of the newer good sense roms. good themeing. fast. optimized. everything else the other two have, just different...
aosp roms are based off stock google source code. they are not built for the evo (or until like 2 weeks ago, not built for sprint, cdma, or wimax) but have been ported exelently. these are much faster than sense, and about half the size. they have a different look, feel, and functionality though. they are based on gingerbread, not froyo like stock evo.
cm7 (cyanogenmod 7): simply the best. most other aosp roms based off of this. a gigantic project that spans across ~30 phones with ~24 official developers and many more unnoficially contributing to the open sourced code. fast, stable, WORKING 4G AND HDMI!!! (took monts to do those 2). everything works (except 720p video recording, but 480 is just as good). really, try this one first. nightlys are released every night, stables are not. you can see the very complicated changelog along with links here: http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=supersonic
miui: based (sorta i think) off cm7. very iphone-like rom. built to have the best of iphone and android, with some added goodies. i persoanlly don't like it, but many swear by it. sorta a you like it or you don't thing. 4g doesn't work.
deck's: another cm7 based rom. basically slimmed down cm7. idk why you'd need to slim something already half the size of sense down further, but some people claim unreal battery life. 4g and hdmi also work cuz it's based on cm7
savagedzen rom: NOT built from cm7 (yes, this is a bragging right), very stock gingerbread, with lots of kernel tweaks. not based on cm7, yet 4g and hdmi work.
salvagemod: even more stock gingerbread. 4g works. not hdmi.
ports: the name explains it all. 4g doens't work for these, except the rare exceptions. virus is the one who's ripping out port after port after port recently.
a sense hd port: mik and myn both have one of these. froyo with sense 2.1. no 4g.
virus gingersense: sense 2.1, gingerbread. no 4g, but the rest is working.
virus kingdom port: based on an unreleased, unrevealed device called the htc kingdom. 4G WORKS. still in deep beta. sense 3.0, and gingerbread. sense 3.0 is pretty crazy.
so yeah. i personally use cm7 with tiamat 4.0.2 kernel and a modnation theme (whichever we r testing). try as many as u like. if you like it, make a backup.
edit: wow. this is long. lol

Thank you so much guys ESPECIALLY dkdude36 it was really helpful..
Eternal Prophecy 5.9 is fast and is built for great battery life. Also the dev is great at listening to ideas to make it better.

+1. very informative. thank you.
I promise u that u will love miui and the great thing about miui well I should say one of the many great things about miui is that there are weekly updates . Every single Friday sometimes Saturday an update is released usually to fix any bugs.
I have been an miui user for months now and I can honestly say it cured my flashaholicism <--new word just added to the dictionary
Any way like every one said nandroid back up and give it a spin
There are so many great roms to choose from
*MiUi* Evo has Evolved
ROM is really user dependent. As long as you get a stable build try a bunch out. I tried mikfroyo, CM6, and a few random others before landing on Myn Warm Z twopointtwo. Just experiment and see what you like. If you like sense, try a sense based ROM. Most are optimized and are lightyears faster than the stock evo ROM.
Just look at what you want from a ROM, if 4g and HDMI aren't a huge concern theres a pretty extensive list of ROM's you can flash and enjoy!
I'm still waiting for my EVO 4G (2.3.3) to be rooted. In the mean time, I'm looking for some Sense 3.0 ROMs. What are some of the best? Thanks a ton!
Sent from my EVO 4G
Virus' Kingdom port...and get in line with the wait.
Have you checked out Synergy? It is Sense 2.1 with a lot of 3.0 touches which helps it to run faster than a full 3.0 ROM. It runs smooth and error free. It brings new life to the Evo 4G.

Likewise MikG 2.2. It is also Sense 2.1 with a sprinkle of 3.0 components.
Some have said the full 3.0 are just a bit too much for the 4G.
But try them.
My sister is in waiting line too.
I'm tempted to pick up another phone (As back up or for my wife since I can get the full discount). 3D or 4G. But with neither rooted I'm just waiting for now. Also 3D seems to have some serious issues that would drive me insane. Lower Quality Speaker and Signal Quality. I've seen that go up and down over the years and 4G is pretty good at both. I have no personal experience but it's totally believable.
Sorry to ramble
Thanks guys..I'll definitely check them out. Also, I've taken a look at the PhillyFinest ROM. Should I consider that one too, or should I stick with the ones you mentioned?

I don't think that it's been updated in quite a while.
I prefer Sense 2.1 ROMs with 3.0 elements, it seems more stable because of the drivers, and lighter. You can even flash the 3.0 carousel on MikG and Synergy if you so please.
I use MikG, just because it is odex and seems smoother and more like a "final product" compared to Synergy, but I think that Synergy will be a great ROM when it is a stable release. I think it'll basically be on the same level as Myn's Warm 2.2
Try both MikG and Synergy when 2.3.3 is rooted. Nandroid Nandroid Nandroid.
