[Q] Best rom? Revolution 2.0.8 vs CM6 vs CM7

As title says..what do you think is the best ROM? and why? I have finally rooted the DHD and I want to try something new
Pls suggests me
thanks in advance for the answers

Can't really comment on Android revolution as I have never used it, don't like sense and hadn't realised there was a no sense option.
Cm 6 is great and the latest release is very stable, but...
Cm 7 brings gingerbread I have had no stability issues, and have been running it since the builds where unofficially compiled from source, current nightly builds are great.
But everyone has different needs / likes, I have been a CM fan since I first installed it on my HTC Magic and it suits me, give Android revolution a go and see what you think you've nothing to lose except your time

yea you can't compare those roms
sense vs. clean 2.2 vs. clean 2.3
depending on what u prefer
some like sense, some like a full stable 2.2, some like to play test person and use 2.3 nightly

I used PNK22 for my day to day rom. For a time had no real problems with it other then no camara yet, this was and still is the only reason i am not using it today..

good
just a question..there's update manager or something like this in the CM7?
I mean, if I install build 18 then build 19 is released how can I upgrade?

download it from thread and flash or use rom manager (the paid version) to get notified and download it on your mobile + update

by simply installing the zip, you dont need to wipe anything as long as only a small amount has changed. Using rom manager or rebooting into recovery and installing zip with that will work.

but, if there is a large change you will need to wipe data etc. Just make sure you dont wipe your sd card

can someone give me a link to the "stable" version of cm7? the development forum is a bit confusing cause there are too many links of CM7 and I can't understand the one you are talking about

h t t p ://mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=ace
There is not yet a stable ROM of CM7 for Desire HD.
I'm running Nightly Build #14 smoothly.

i loved CM7, but i also liked the integration with sense so i went with revolution, but i prefer the gingerbread keyboard

I'm currently running Android Revolution 2.0.8 with a few customisations of my own and I love it. That said I can't use a ROM which doesn't have Sense UI.
If I could put up with not having the additions that Sense UI adds to a ROM, I'd probably be using a CM7 nightly.

It's Revolution 2.0.9 now (fast developer ), but I find this best for my needs personally. It's all about individuality, so try each one you like the look of and stick with the one that works best for you.

Recommend a stable/reliable ROM?

Got a Desire HD and have to admit I am impressed with the stock phone as is.
However many have told me that going Custom is like day/night and have decided to take the plunge.
So many choices so please recommend a ROM for first ever flash. Prefer something stable, reliable and does not drain the battery.
Cheers

With the criterias you have I would go for Android revolution 3.5 based on software version 1.84. It's stable and a rom for day to day use. And you can get it both with sense and no sense.
I personaly are using Revolution 4.0 beta, and haven't had any issues with it, but a full version of gingerbread will not be available with sense before a official or leaked version.
But it's a lot of stable ROM's out there, so in the end it's up to personal references..
Good luck

if u want htc sense based rom that it has to be either leedroid v2.2.3 or android revolution 3.5
or
if u want a rom with no htc sense that it has to be cynogenmod7 for Desire HD

Thanks guys, simple straight forward answers.
Android Revolution 3.5 and LeeDroid looks to be the go as I prefer HTC Sense.

I have just install CyanogenMod 7.0.0 without Sense.
Everything looking good.
Phone HTC Desire HD
ROM CyanogenMod 7.0.0
Radio 12.48.60.23P_26.08.04.07_M3
HBoot 0.85.2007
Kernal 2.6.32.35-cyanogenmod
CWM Recovery 3.0.2.5 / Manager 3.0.1.4
ENG S-OFF / Radio S-OFF

I tried Cyanogen 7, coredroid and revolution 3.5 ..
And for me revolution definitely is the fastest, most stable. The other 2 roms showed my trouble in their first day, being sluggish or even hanging. But i've been running revolution without a problem for like 2 weeks now.
I only had the soft microphone and wheater problem. But these are known (do not occur to everyone) and there are tested and working patches out for it.
In a nutshell .... Am really happy with revolution 3.5

If your after the stock look, but customizable, and want the best battery saving Froyo ROM and kernel, definitely LeeDrOiD hands down.

RCMix 5.95, running fine on my device, nice and smooth. Also used he latest radio file and RIL file to go with it, signal and battery both seem good to me.

Stable bug free sense 3.0/3.5 Rom?

My brother has just got a Desire Z and has asked me to install a custom Rom.
I'm after a sense 3.0/3.5 that is stable and bug free. I have so far seen AHRD and rcmix4.0 which look ok.
What Rom would you suggest?

Try NRGZ's energy roms, Heavily modified for stability
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1401560&highlight=energy

Any reason why a Cyanogenmod based ROM wouldn't be suitable? There are some very good ROMs available if those are an option to you.

Yes that is one of my options. It's looking like that or AHRD.
And yes, it needs to be sense.

Reading through the thread, even that Rom has a few issues.
Is there a sense 3.0 Rom thats completely bug free?
This Rom seems good, any reviews?

good rom but I think it's 2.1

Hmmm, don't mind 2.1 as long its stable.
Another Rom which seems to fit the criteria is the insertcoin Rom. It's 2.1 but does have 3.0 features.

Any other opinions?

Use the energized one (RCMIX 4.0 energized blue) works great for me...just followed the instructions on the thread to fix the flash issue, and have no problems... been using it for almost a month now

Go with Virtuous Sense 2. Only 2.1 but it's the most stable sense ROM around. I've tried all the sense 3/3.5 and while they can be made to work ok with supercharge and other mods, they still aren't as stable as VS2.

If you want REAL speed and stability you should go for Cyanogen or MIUI, they worked perfect for me. I am trying to find a good Sense based ROM now, but it seems that Virtuous Sense is the most stable, still had some annoying issues with it.

I've been in the same position as yourself but I've recently found solace in Android Revolution HD, which is by far the smoothest, fastest and best Sense 3.5 ROM!

I agree

I agree (+1), the only time my Virtuous Sense 2.0 goes down is when I get bored and want to try something else. Uptimes of more that 15 days are common for me, where Sense 3.X roms rarley get a week without a reboot.

Trust me bliss sense hybrid v3.2 I've tried almost all roms and I find this the best !

+1 for bliss sense. Synergy also gets the job done. I have used both

Affinity 2.05, far the best and stable.

[Q] Silly Question

Hello All,
I have HTC Desire HD and I would like to root it. Is [ROM][11/05] Runny Xtreme Surprise - v3.0.0 || Xtreme Fast || a bit more stable than the official ROM? Also where should I start if I want to root my device?

I think you should use search first. That's how you'll find out how to root, s-off etc. Xtreme Surprise is a good rom, but i don't see much differences between it and Virtuous rom.

Virtuous ROM is not the official ROM for the HTC Desire HD, has the one with Sense 3.0. If I root it and upgrade it to Xtreme Surprise, will I get a better ROM with less bugs?

Before you try a different rom, make a backup of the one you already have. Before you root your phone, read the threads for the roms yoy are interested in. In the first page they will usually tell you if there are bugs. And if not, reading the rest of the pages will give you an idea how it works, if other users have encountered.bugs and so forth.
Sent from a dream.

Runny Xtreme Surprise is #$%@ing awesome, and you will get much better performance than you will on a stock ROM. It's stable as hell for me, but I think any custom ROM is going to have some minor bugs somewhere (although I haven't found any yet). RCMix tweaks seem to be fully functioning on Xtreme and, in my personal experience, the whole thing is smoother than any AOSP ROM I've used thus far (and I used to be pretty heavily biased against Sense).
Sorry for gushing, but I think it's the absolute pinnacle of GB development thus far.

AWESOME! Cannot wait then to flash it! I am working now as IT Technician but when I get home I will do it! \/

There's a tool that you can use to root your phone in a few minutes. It's not complicate. Use the search option and you will find it without any problem.
Also there's a few roms that you can try, all have different tastes, behavior, app, etc.
Also always make a Full wipe (factory reset) in the phone before that you proceed with flashing a new room
You will be very addictive installing roms like me, I can't stop of flashing roms in my phone

Just Installed it last night! AWESOMEEEEEEE!! My phone became very smooth and nice!! And when I reboot is soo quickk!!! AMAZINGG!! Who created this ROM must be genius!

I think you will test in the future many ROMs....

virtuous infinity rom V1.33.0 alpha 3

just flashed the "flashy" infinity rom from virtuous on my G2. The thing is it's incredibly slow,the screen keeps flashing, at first i thought it will end very soon but it goes on and on. i am a noob but i think a good kernel will help question is which one pls i need help cos i realy love the rom if it could just work smoothly for me ..................any one......

Post REMOVED

You can't change that Kernel its needed for some hardware on the phone to work use a Sense 4.0A ROM if you want sense 4.0

I thought that Sens is good when purchased my phone. Then it updated to 2.3, then I rooted it and got 3.0 with Virtuous Affinity and I still thought that I need Sense on my phone. It's only when I got fed up with all the lags I installed Mimicry. It was like a breath of fresh air. Everything suddenly was all smooth and lag free.
Make a backup, give it a try. If you won't like it - just restore.

Partially agree, but since I tried GenY, I don't have any complaints about speed and still have Sense. I was using Mimicry and have to say it's best AOSP ROM, but lack of mms and sending contacts by SMS forced me to go back for Sense rom. And only 1 is good is GenY.
