How is the virus Kingdom Port with 3.0 sense or what roms do you recommend for a new custom rom user? I really like the using CM7 but I have gotten bored with it and I would like to be able to update profile / prl / radio but not sure how to do it. Which roms are stable with new sense?

I recommend Myn's WarmTwoPointTwo RLS-5.

If you want a stable rom, stay away from aosp and the new sense 3.0 roms. They are all ports, which means not everything will work correctly. The most stable roms are the sense froyo roms, like Myn's and mik.
Running Deck's 1.2t with Tiamat 4.0.4 kernel. It's AOSP and gingerbread based... and everything works.

I'm not ripping on CM7, actually I've been running it for 2 months now. I was just saying, its not 100% stable, and that's what it sounds like the OP wants. I still have gps bugs every day, random lockups, keyboard disappears and wont return until i reboot. All are minor issues to me, but to some people that may be a turn off.
I use godmode and GPS fix and the super charge script. I have no problems. none.

CM7 is definitely not 100% stable like the OP seems to want.
Best bet is try different things and see what you like.
Cm7 with tiamat 4.0.4 SBC works fine with me. I haven't had any issues that I would notice...I'm one of the lucky ones I guess I might give that supercharge script a shot later...

If you are looking for something different, try MIUI rom with tiamat latest kernel. Great combo, real smooth also

MIUI is good for newbies, simple and clean. No 4G though. I use StiffSpliff's port on http://www.miui.us and I love it.
Currently running Deck's ROM. It is a slimmed-down CM7 with tweaks. A lot of fun, I must say, and he is a great dev and always willing to help.
Sense... bloated. But GingerAle works well, if you don't have a Novatech screen (full brightness issue). Sense 3.0 is still too buggy, until we get a source code release from HTC.
My eye is on the Droid X port....

I remember you As for roms, if you want to update prl, you nees to be on a sense rom. All 2.2 based roms work, myn's 2.2 is worth credit, along with kings' roms. As for sense 3.0, virus' port is good, but like all 3.0 sense roms, they still have their bugs.
This epic reply brought to you by none other than my roxx'd out Evo.
If you like sense 3.0 you might want to give MikG a go. It is sense 2.1 but has the 3.0 lockscreen with working icons and 3.0 mms. I have been running for a week now and and haven't had any problems at all. 4g, wifi, sms, mms, internet, all good on it.

Anyway why is there always one it the crowd who has nothing to contribute but must post anyway! I have heard about a rom that Myn's and Virus are working on together is this true? I am going to give Myn's try.Also what about Salvage-Mod is it pretty stable? Thanks Again!
salvage mod 1.2.1 is flawless. Everything works and the video / camera are better than any others. Ran it for over a month without a hickup.

I just need the basics, nothing flashy, etc..
Working 4G is preferred since I actually have the service.
i would try azrael x v4 its looks just like stock, but it includes a few tweaks of its own, its pretty fast, small on size and very stable, just remember to do a nandroid backup before flashing, if you have titanium backup i would back up all my apps with it too, for easy restore, then wipe data and caches before you flash new rom, and you are ready to go, almost forgot i also use mybackup to back up my contacts and stuff like that
try Stock Turbo
it's so minimalist that u will have 400MB+ after fresh flashing

All of them? I didnt realize there was more than 1.
How many come with the "stock" ROM?
Well CM7 uses the new TMobile theme engine so there are a bunch of basic themes for it and some are done more so than others. Like Sculpted uses some different icons for the status bar and not sure how deep the themeing goes when you get deeper into it but I think more so than most. Some just take the GB Green and jazz the colors up and some stand alone themes do more 'drastic' themeing. Ill pop a pic up of the cyan themed CM7 you can see stock icons and status bar colors are changed. There are quite a few though so I would suggest you hit the themes section and start checking em out. Some are in the market and are part of the theme engine, I think there are still some that are stand alones but I may be wrong.

The dev thread "yet another aosp gingerbread ROM" has a link to a ROM that's in between Salvage-Mod and CM7. Still has the tweaks of CM7, but uses the stock launcher instead of ADW. Salvage-Mod is the closest to stock though, I think.
There are tons of themes for the t-mobile theme engine on CM7, so you're going to have a hard time getting screen shots of all of them. Easiest to just flash CM and try them out.

There is the link to the thread I was talking about. I ran it for a few days, it's very stable.
As far as VaelPak, it is an awesome ROM, one of my favs and a must for anyone looking to try something new. However, IMO it's about as far as you can get from a bar bones ROM.
I guess what Im really looking for is the barebones Gingerbread theme. And then, along with that, a pretty stripped down, only the essentials, ROM.
So, I'm bored with my setup, interested in the Ginger-Sense new builds, but wtf???
I have NO clue what's what....
There's MIK'S, EVOZones (based on Mik's, I guess), Deck's... Synergy, but I can only find a thread in the Incredible section..... Too much to read, too much to digest, my brain is melting
Man, I don't want to flash 6 different ROMS. I just want one that makes a good driver....
I'm leaning toward Mik's 1.01, but I guess there's no power widgets in the taskbar pull down, and I need those... (but he has great themes, man!!)
i'm suggesting deck's rom. been running it for about a month now since i switched from cm
Which aspects of ginger sense appeal to you? Might help us be able to narrow it down for you
That's the problem. I don't really KNOW the different aspects and trying to read the treads is an exercise in futility
miks 1.01 is definitly a daily driver, NO DOUBT! yes thier are no power widgets but you do have the toggles, im sure if enough people request it the good people at mikmik will surly take a dive into it for you.
I had the same problem before I started doing my own dev stuff. Someone requested the skyraider rom to be ported, and since I.made that port, its fulfilles my "what I want from my rom" mental battle.
I couldn't decide if I liked the functionality of sense or the customization aspects of aosp more...and skyraider turned out to be the perfect (and as far as I know, only) hybrid that met both of my requests.
Swyped from my SkyRaider Port
Been running synergy for the last two days and I have to say that its the best ginger sense rom I've ever run.......visit infectedrom.com for more info.......

Thats the thing about android; so many different flavors (fragmentation) and you flash them all leaving you bored out your mind. If we had 1 OS like apple/wp7 we wouldn't get bored because there's nothing to flash lol. Try the windows phone 7 launcher (launcher 7) in the market over your current rom it will keep you busy for a little.
just a suggestion, now might be a fantastic time to try cm7, the rom that u fear most (lol)
I ran CM7 for a long time....
I'm really more interested in the Gingersense ROM's. Other than this people.apk problem, Mik's is friggin' sweet!

You have to go through the commits. See what's merged and what's experimental. Pons usually doesn't release change logs/features lists. Cause its all cm7.

I've had great luck with GingerDeck but it's a bit out of date since the Dev is working on ICSdeck (which is almost there, but still not stable enough for daily use as I found out). Now I'm running Condemned, which has been updated several times recently (last time being yesterday). I find the ROM very clean and stable.
Mikrunny is okay if you like sense 3.5 slowness and prettiness.
Mctwist sense 2.1/3.0 is nice if you can find a link.
Latest CM nightly for me. I try every rom, always find myself coming back.
here is an almost fully working miui v4 rom, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1509512
yes that is an ICS rom, pretty nefty the camera isnt working completely right and there are a few bugs but works pretty well for a beta =]
I'd like to use an ICS ROM as my daily driver, however, I'm not sure which is the furthest along at this point in time.
For those who have tried any of them, which do you prefer?
Either cm9 a4 or evervolv if you want hardware acceleration or aokp (most features) I'd you don't mind not having hardware acceleration.

I'm not sure what you're asking when you're comparing Sense 3.0 ROMs.
But as far as best ROMs I listed what I thought might be the best at this point.
I won't list just one ROM as the one with the most features may not be the best and I don't think there's one best.
As far as ROMs with HWA - hardware acceleration (needed for Chrome and a bit more smoothness is what most like about it) and stability and still having a lot of features that would be the CM9 build by drk.hd.
Evervolv is probably the simplest but pretty fast and stable but it's not released on xda.
AOKP is good and has the most features but as it has many features some do have bugs (feature bugs, not stability or reboot related bugs) on it and it doesn't have hardware acceleration so the accelerated UI and Google Chrome will not work on it. It may be more stable as it doesn't use hardware acceleration.
Been on Abduction ICS 2.0a9 for a week now. As a daily, it's been great. No crashes or lags, runs Chrome as good as the stock browser. Battery holds up well since flashing the Incredikernel test 6 with HWA. Same hitches as the rest, no video camera, but otherwise, smooth and solid.

My favorite is Evervolv, though I probably ran AOKP longer as Evervolv was pretty unstable when they first introduced HWA. I also ran MIUI a bit, but development on that had stopped for over a month (though it is going again now). I have not tried Abduction, and I jumped ship from the true ICS ROMs before CM9 was good enough to use as a daily. Keep in mind that everybody is using Evervolv's device tree anyway, so all of these ROMs have a lot in common as far as stability is concerned.
I loved the look and feel of ICS, the way it handles folders, and I especially liked the application switcher (long-press home). I gave it up, at least for now, because the camera is just too buggy. Something in the camera is leaking memory on all the dinc ICS builds, at least if you enable features like barcode scanning or video recording. Battery charging/unplugging reboots are also common across the board. But it was the camera and video camera issues that were the deal breaker for me.
But if you don't care about having more than just a basic camera, and can handle a reboot every once in a while, then all of these ROMs are OK. Evervolv has the best hardware devs, so they get the big fixes first. AOKP has the best feature development, and Abuction takes AOKP's features and puts it on top of Evervolv's latest developments. CM9 sticks with pure Cyanogenmod features. And MIUI is, well, it's MIUI. You love it or you hate it.

Hanger has been busy with life in the real world lately. He's still working on the next update in his free time. Until then, you can choose between 1.82 or 2.0a9 with HWA. Tried both and I was partial to the alpha with HWA.

Its stable and perfect!!! Ics isnt ready for the dinc yet.....it needs more time to get everythimg right.

I was running Abduction for quite a while, and was suffering from alot of lockups. About a week and a half ago, I switched to CM9 alpha, and it has been running almost perfectly!
Well Aokp milestone 5 came out and it's hella stable and using the newest incredikernal it just can't be beat!

I really like CM9 by Kang. Its been super quick, good looking, and considering its in Alpha phase, fairly bugless for me.
I'm running the CM9 a6 by drk.hd with the incredikernel w/HWA and have been very impressed with how smooth it is running.
Battery life is OK but not great. If you are a light to moderate user, you could make the whole day no problem.
I have only had one reboot after charging, other than that and the known camera/camcorder issues, this ROM is golden.
You should actually try cm9 a8. It has working lockscreen shortcuts along with themes picker thing and it has working panorama with a really good camera its almost perfect.

Running CM9 a8 now....camera issues are being resolved one by one.

I've been running/following the Abduction line for almost 3 months now. I really like the customization & features, but at a price. I do get some random locks, freezes and reboots, and the camera, flash and video are unusable. Battery life is pretty good (on the 1.8) Is the camera, video and camcorder fixed in CM 9? If so I may jump ship from the Abduction team.... since development has almost stopped and I feel it is more of a plug for the useless forum "Android Passions" which is a rule breaker right?
I've rooted my epic with the rooted fc09 stock rom. Put a couple of tweaks in build.prop and tried the supercharger script, which was a disaster so I restored a back up. I've tried different launchers (twlauncher was fine, to be honest, but ended up with the FC problem that everyone evenetually gets) like Go and now FTL and ADW. But everything is really laggy and sluggish and it's really frustrating.
Didn't realize how little memory this thing has so it hovers in the 50-100mb free range, but I don't think that should be the problem right? I know it wasn't like this when I first got it and I've checked what's running and not a lot (I already killed the drm stuff, although I'd love to know how to get rid of media hub).
It seems the stock rom should be able to perform okay - this isn't a majorly used phone (facebook, messaging, web are pretty much everything it's used for), so, at least for now, I'd just as soon stay on rooted stock vs a new rom. And upgrading isn't happening for another 8 months. So...any suggestions or pointers from anyone??
Thanks!
My other Epic was very laggy with ADW so put Zeam on it and hadnto redo my GFs homescreens exactly the way they were....or else...lol.

Have you tried the Peoples ROM it is stock rooted but on MTD? Your sluggishness and FC almost sound like EXT4 unstable issue with battery pulls ect.

Haven't tried any other roms yet, but I'll be damned if the ICS review doesn't look amazing. If I was going to jump, I'm thinking that might be where I'd go. Any quick big gotchas there?
I was also curious if you could expand on the ext4 unstable comment? Haven't had to do any battery pulls until after the supercharger script (don't know if the battery pulls are cause or effect in your comment). Also, I probably should have mentioned that this is BML stock (I realize I would have to "convert" to go to any other rom).

The battery pulls caused the unstable effect on EXT4 which was the knock on it. Not sure if you are on EXT4 or not pure stock is RFS. Beware of any ICS ROM's battery life isn't the greatest so if that is important to you avoid. They have come a long way with mods etc. but still can be a hassle. If you really want to jump from stock may I recommend CM7 great battery life and super smooth and fast
EDIT:
Just remember something about journaling on EXT4 off caused the unstable issue and on solved it? I think I still have the zips let me know if you want to try but you need to find out if you are EXT4 or RFS there is a command you can type in terminal but i can't seem to locate it at the moment.
Cm7 is really nice but I prefer ics to it, cm9 is really smooth and has almost if not everything is working, aokp has a lot of features and I prefer it over cm9 except the later builds have been sluggish for me. Right now I'm on paranoid android and its awesome, but its only on alpha right now so if you want everything working go with cm9 or aokp, or cm7.
I find the stock rooms were all sluggish though but I haven't tried one since ei22 so my opinion might not count there. Try em all qbking77 has easy to follow guides and if you find one you like stick with it
As much as I preferred the ICS of CM9, for pure speed CM7 under Gingerbread with Zeam launcher was my sweet spot for maximum speed.
Don't know if it was the wipe, the switch to MTD, or the switch to The People's Rom, but it performs much better now actually.

I vote all of the above but my first guess would be The Peoples Rom LOL.
I agree. I was on CM9 from its alpha days up until Beta 4. Amazing ROM, but it was never as speedy as the last MarcusantRom I was on prior to ICS. I closely watched the development of TPR by Kenny as I stuck with CM9. Performance was good, though it was slower than I wanted. Then I started getting annoying FCs on apps and would have to restart them. Plus I was on an old PRL and EI22 and wanted to update to FC09. So I decided I would make the jump back to GB, hoping to get back my speed.
Short story long, TPR is by far the quickest and snappiest Rom I've ever used. Not as feature rich as others may be, but I think that's a plus, because it has all the necessary tweaks to make it fly. And that's the beauty of Android. You can customize it to your heart's content.

Let's see!
I know you're working hard on it... I'm just being impatient.
The latest cm7 kang + v6 supercharger. Everything else stock, you'll be flying in no time.
