so, i want to flash a custom rom but as stock gingerbread is on the horizon is it worth waiting and seeing what custom roms pop up using the said desire 2.3 rom as a base?
also will the stock 2.3 be running sense? i heard its not, so will a rom dev be able to put sense 3.0 on to a desire 2.3 stock rom?

I would wait for custom roms based on Ginger.

It will and it will probably be Sense 1.9. It is not that easy to remove half of your devices appeal by removing Sense. Also the leak showed it is all possible to fit in Desire's tiny memory.

Possible, but I personally would not like that. Give me the best possible performance out of something that is intended for our Desires. I don't digg ports.
Thanks for the question and response. I was having the same question in mind

There is no best ROM, it's subjective. Find one you like the look of and give it a go, don't like it, try another.
I understand m8 but I'm kinda new to all this flashing custom Rom stuff and just want a stable and fast Rom that does everything the stock 2.2 does and more with the g1 only cm was available through Rom manager so just used that where the desire has a lot of options lol

If you want sense you should either go for a SenseHD rom, or a MoDaCo one.
If you want stock Android, I would recommend CyanogenMod!
You know you don't need to download and flash roms solely through ROM Manager?
My advice is just to look at the ROM forum and download the one with the most hits, it's popular for a reason. There are really only two different types of ROM, Sense and the stock Android bundled usually with ADW.Launcher. It's not like WM where there are a plethora of different mods and registry changes, at least not in my limited experience.
I agree just neva been this spoilt for choice

have you updated to Froyo yet? As far as I know, they are just 2.2 Froyo radios. So if you have updated to 2.2 chances are you don't need to update. (Double check with the radio thing, I am an Android newbie as well so I am not 100% sure.)
As for the kernel, as far as I know you don't need to update this either.
For Sense roms I strongly suggest LeeDroid, and Desire HD roms I'd go for RCMixHD (Camera still not working yet, but it should be fixed soon), non Sense roms, go for OpenDesire, Cyanogen or MIUI
Agreed, if you want to try something refreshingly different, try MIUI.
Still ain't a clue which one to try lol
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
well try Leedroid first, then MIUI for non-sense, and see if you are attracted to sense or not

Also try CyanogenMod or OpenDesire to see if you like Stock Android.
There is no harm in trying different roms and switching if you want!
I've used cm 6 before Ive not flashed roms without using Rom manager and leeroid isn't available through that there's only a small section like cm, defrost nd others
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
IT's not too hard
1. Download Leedroid rom from their minisite's dropbox folder.
2. copy file onto your sd card
3. reboot into recovery
Important part!!
DO A NANDROID BACKUP!!!
i. select backup/restore
ii. select backup and let it rip
iii. return to menu
4. select flash .zip
5. find the leedroid rom & select it
Cheers for help just one more question once I've flashed a custom Rom if I ever wanted to return to stock how would I go about doing it

So I'm currently using rmk's 2.3.3 debloated stock ROM, and would like exactly the same thing for 2.3.4, which his Virtuous ROM doesn't appear to be. I am also seeing no downloads on the Virtuous website for just a debloated stock 2.3.4.
Anything like that exist yet? Apparently the OTA update will remove root.
Also waiting for a debloated stock 2.3.4

If there is a stock rooted 2.3.4, you can install that and manually debloat it yourself

I saw this thread, but it doesn't appear to be a whole ROM. Not sure exactly what to do with the files there.
I found RMK's thread on rootzwiki where he's updating the ROM I am using right now. Bookmarked it, now just have to wait

Just trying to see if anyone could point me to an AOSP Gingerbread ROM. I've been using a ICS ROM and while its good, I had been using Gingerbread on my previous phone. I was used to Gingerbread and would like to see if there is a real AOSP ROM for this phone. Thanks!
All roms for our phone are in the development section. Take a look.

There are some CM7 builds in the development thread, somewhere.
hi noob here
i have htc one x branded from optus (cid is optus001)
and it is already updated to jellybean 4.1.1 and sense+
but i want to know if i can install jellybean 4.2.1 or even other jellybean 4.1.1 custom roms? (with sense or without sense doesnt matter)
if yes any recommendations?
i have tried searching this forum and net but couldnt find definite answer
thanks in advance
Dude you can install any Sense JB ROMs since you updated hboot. But for AOSP/AOKP/CM10 ROMs you need special boot.img and gps won't work. You only needed to upgrade to SENSE 4+ if you were planning on using a sense jb rom. I recommend you try each rom and see what you like best.

I flashed this ROM, but the only versions avalaible are 6.0, 5.0 and 4.0. I want to have a *completely* stock ROM, only with root added. I think about flashing a RUU and then root the system.

I like Sense 2.1 more. First I liked those 3D animations, but then it became overrated for me. Also, Sense 2.1 barely lags, unlike Sense 3.0.
