So as the topic says, what do you guys think is the best gingerbread rom out? I tried AR HD 4.0 beta3 but it was not smooth so i switched back to AR HD 3.2.
Now there a like half a dozen gingerbread roms, so which do you think is the best overall, smooth, good battery, basically a daily usable rom. It seems coredroid 4.6 is respectable, and now theres AR HD 4.0 beta4, blazingly GB by capy, cm7 versions, etc. I would test them all but It takes me hours to DL one rom. I know, crazy. My edge powered home network is capped at like 50kbs top speed. BTW i would prefer sense roms. use to love vanilla android, but now i just cant go back. That dialer alone is hideous,lol.

For me, capy's rom is quite blazingly and it has the fastest support by far. Add the latest radio to it and you'll have a top notch DHD running Gingerbread.

Desire hd, international one. The radio im using is 26.06.04.14_m.
Update to the latest BETA, 4.0 massive speed improvements according to changelog!
CM7 ftw.
Tried it, you'll love it
Yeah, I'd have to go with CM7 as well.
Try CM7 and MIUI, they are completely different from each other, I'm using MIUI personally and love it, but it's all down to personal preference really. I find I get bored of one after a few weeks then try another.
Just tried a few roms some of you mentioned, theyre all awesome. Also anyone who hasn't tried the desire s DHD port from theintelligent should give it a shot. Possibly the smoothest gingerbread rom out there. The only thing is the text is slightly larger since its a desire s port, but not a biggie imo.
guys suggest me, Android Revolution HD 4.0 β 4 or CoreDroid HD GB 2.3.3 V4.8???
btw former is still on 2.3.2 while later is on 2.3.3...
CM7
Cause of Nosense
I rekon lees beta 3 is good try it
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Gotta be cm7rc2 for me.
Not tried many others mind, i'm so happy with this one.
really stable one with Sense
If you want a really stable one with Sense then you can better flash Desire S DHD(2.3.3) then Revolution HD 4.
I don't have any experience with CoreDroid.
cm7rc3 is out - Nosense and love it
Hi @all,
I use the CoreDroid HD GB 2.3.3 V4.8 and had a problem.
Still fixed. Sorry for posting
Sense: RHD 4.0
No-Sense: CM7 which I´m just addicted to since I came from RHD
Last week I flashed my first custom ROM. I wanted performance infront of visual changes because my lack of experience. A friend of mine told me to try out the Android Revolution HD 4.0 β 4.
Amazing ROM! It is like comparing the Playstation 1 with a Playstation 3, fast and smooth and very easy to use.
Regards rocketby.
at the moment i like this one. because of the clean gingerbread look.
[ROM] Spike Pure Gingerbread v2.0 [2.31.1400][GingerBread 2.3.3 without Sense]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1002671
it runs realy stable and has an exellent standby time.
only issue gps runs only outside.
_updateted today to v2.0 gps and loction works also inside.
Theintelligent's desire s port is by far the best gingerbread sense rom atm. Followed by themed coredroid

I have the leaked Gingerbread ROM for my Incredible, which I decided to revert to after spending a day with the Kingdom Sense 3.0 ROM. I really loved the lockscreen though, and have seen the download link for the Evo and similar phones floating around, but I know it's the wrong screen size, and don't myself have the skills to fix it. Does anyone know if an appropriately sized Sense 3.0 Lockscreen APK for the Incredible exists, or if not, would someone be willing to make one? The Kingdom Alpha ROM is just too buggy. Maybe some day soon, but for now I just want something functional I can still enjoy
There is a apk. However it doesn't have the icons on the screen. Works well though.

I strongly suggest using gingersense remix (wdfowty I think). It is a gingersense port that includes a bunch of 3.0 features (mostly 2.1 sense) but actually runs on our phones. It includes a working 3.0 lockscreen-if you use the apk then it is the lockscreen only, no shortcuts-just the ring to unlock and no animations.
I can promise if you try this rom you will not be disappointed....
It won't run on the gingerbread leak due to the fact that it is sense 1.0 and not sense 2.1.
I just realized it was you joel that posted the last reply. I'm eagerly awaiting the release of your uber gingershift
My advise to you is look at the ones built off the leaked version for the incredible.
I am running mik miks gingersense beta and it seems to have stabilized enough to use until the official release and subsequent roms built off the final release are out.
Also I dont know if it is coincidence or if it helped but flashing the leaked gb radio is what i did right before everything seemed to stabilize...
Also I believe i was getting better signal on redemption 2.4 than i am on these gingerbread ones.
I moved to mik miks after i was having issues on Gingersense remixed b4 with random restarts and being unable to dial out. Though I now believe I was the cause for most of those issues on a mistake I made when I restored some apps from titanium backup. Make sure you only restore apps you have downloaded not system apps that should not be in the new rom.
Back in the day with WinMo I loved MightyROM because he made an awesome ROM but mostly left the look and feel of stock. He didn't mess with a ton of stuff just because he could and I always appreciated that because it was rock stable. I rely heavily on my phone for business, it must be stable for all the things I use it for. I see the new "official" leak for Gingerbread and I want to give it a shot but I see these other ROMs that are now popping up thanks to the leaked kernel/libraries/whatever. They have higher versions of Sense (which I rely heavily on) and it makes me debate should I jump past the leak? So my question is this:
Which ROM past the modified Sense 1.0 in the official leak retains the most stability combined with new Sense updates? Even though 3.0 is available I'd be happy with the 2.1 that my wife is now rocking on her EVO Shift via another official leak. Which of these is a proper port from a phone with almost identical hardware, etc., so I know it's going to work flawlessly?
Skyrader is a sense ROM with lots of cool stuff from CM7.
Uber stable to.
I second the SkyRaider nomination. His ROMs have always been stable in my experiences. SR 2.5.2 (I believe it was that version?) was the first ROM I actually ever flashed lol.
Sent from my Droid Incredible running CM7.0.3.
I agree Skyraider! It is heavily themed Sense 1.0 so it looks sweet, has tons of customization and has the stability of stock. I have flashed all the new Sense 2, 2.1 and 3.0 roms but I always come back to Skyraider.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I have been using Gingerbread Remix, its a beta but extremely stable. It's based on sense 2.1 but has sense 3.0 features like the lockscreen.
Skyraider looks like it's still Froyo though, if I'm going to go through the hassle of re-setting up my device I'd rather do it with actual gingerbread, not just themed gingerbread.
well, then you're gona have to look at the very few gingerbread roms out there since it's brand new. there's some in the development section that are PLAIN stock gingerbread sense; then there are some that are themed. i'm on optimized gingersense right now which seems real nice, and root is uploading a new release now that includes some sense 3 goodies, so you might wanna look into that.
I'm on Gingersense remix by wdfowty. It's sense 2.1 but with all the nice sense 3 features that you would want. Lockscreen, message and phone apps.

I've been loving SR 4.0 with Lous #8...but i recently moved over to the Uber kingdom rom and I'm hooked. It has so much potential...wouldnt quite recommend it for a daily driver yet unless you are the patient type
Stock Kingdom is pretty solid now that it's in alpha 2. Only issue I've had is with Rosie, so I just installed launcher pro. Problem solved.

+1..
This rom is amazing. Give it a shot, you won't regret it!
Do any of them have any issues with Exchange activesync?
+1 with GingerSense RmX, great ROM, great Sense 3.0 integration, stable as can be, only problems I've had with it are related to MMS but that's cause I didn't wipe before the update :/
I'm also running the GingerSense ReMix Rom, they just released beta 3 today, its been very stable for me. Just keep in mind its still beta.

None that I have found yet... I have flashed newtoroots and Wdfowty's sense 2.1 Roms.
I run sky raider as my daily. If you are looking for something to set up and run for a while, I'd go with sky raider 4.0. You commented about not wanting to reset everything up. The Ginger sense ports are betas and each release requires full wipe.
SR 4.0 is currently the most stable feature packed sense rom. Waiting for ports or leaked gb builds to get more stable then ill switch. Would love a skyraider rom based on the Inc Gb leak¡!
I am using the Stock Plus v3.01 ROM and loving it.
I must admit though, the only reason I am using it because I love HTCs voice recognition keyboard and I didn't know how to get that into CM7 on my Droid Incredible!

This is the next ROM I am going to try. I so far haven't really like anything else.
Just like the title:
Anyone have a comprehensive list of Sense 3.0 ROMs with 4G? So far, KInGdOm ReWiND 3D is the only stable one I have found.

MikG is a fast, stable, and great ROM but it's 2.1+3.0
The Kinged Shooter 3.0 rom has 4G as well. Also I believe synergy / syngery-kingdom does as well.

This has all of the android ROM and kernel development. Maybe do a little searching before asking something like this (not intending to sound like a ****). Good luck and happy flashing.
I've tried MikG, and it is great.
Kinged Shooter ran, but was laggy.
And Synergy Kingdom just FC'ed Sense UI on me all the time.
I'll post back if I find something that really flys. I might just end up going back to MikG, LOL.
Kingdom Rewind is great, but it doesn't snap like I want it too.
I'm thinking of giving Synergy GodMode RLS2 a whirl.
@nickelghandi:
Obviously I have clicked through and flashed my fair share of ROMs. I was just tired of flashing things left and right and having none of them really work for me.
Mik3db1 by far the most functional sense rom out that I know of. Been my daily for a month now

Members...can you please suggest some good & completely working ROMs for G2 (with Sense 3.0 preferably) ...
Havent tried them yet, since im still unrooted, but i've done some extensive research of the available roms with sense (reading through all the threads, and comments...) and have narrowed the list with a top 3 which im considering using:
in order of preference (from what i've researched of course...and this is personal):
1)MikRunny v1.01
2)RunnyDrOiD v3.0
3)BeatMod BlissSense Hybrid
Hope this helps, but again, havent tried them yet...

If you're looking for something with Sense I would recommend Virtuous or CoreDroid ROMs.
http://www.virtuousrom.com/
http://www.coredroidroms.com/site/
different releases of those you can find in the development section aswell.
so far I've tested Affinity and Unity latest releases from Virtuous and they seem fine.
If you would change your mind and rather want a smooth fast ROM instead a Sense one (that's pretty much the deal I guess, Sense ROM are propably always slower) I would tell you to go for Virtuous G-lite:
[ROM][12/12/2011] Virtuous G-Lite v2.0.1 :: GB AOSP HTC/G2 base 2.16.531.5
Running it atm, makes me really satisfied I rooted my phone
Ofc there are many other CM7 based ROMs around, you just have to try them out yourself to find what suits you best I guess.
Goodluck

Most every ROM in the development section is "good and completely working" aside from a couple listed as alphas, and the ICS ROMs (which still have some bugs, but many still use as daily drivers).
There is no "best" ROM. It depends on your personal needs and preferences. Asking what is "best" is an insult to the developers that put a lot of time and effort to get these ROMs to us. Threads like this are tiresome, since they get asked all the time. Just browse or search the forum, and you will find plenty of suggestions.
If you like fast and simple look go with CM7
It is a valid question

No need to be harsh; Not all ROM's are the same, there are some which perform better than others. We do appreciate the work being done by developers, but I think you were unfairly harsh to the person who asked that question. It is a valid question
Why Sense?
Far as ICS Roms go, the one in my signature has been my favorite of the batches (basically a customized Rom using the CM9 Kernel with AOKP user base and his own G2/Vision specific tweaks).
my favorite sense roms were Virtuous Primadonna v1.21.0 Alpha 3 and InsertCoin Vision v1.7.1. out of sense 3.0-4.0 roms that i tried only the primadona had a working camera but audio recording didn't work in some apps. those roms are pretty slow... if you really want sense i'd recommend InsertCoin Vision v1.7.1. it was the only one that had working camera and audio that i tested. in any event you'll eventually get annoyed with how slow all the sense roms are if you like tweaking your phone often. that's why i switched to ics. the adroma mimicry is the fastest rom i've tried.
Andromadus Mimicry (1.1.2) gives you ICS in CM9 flavour with some additional tweaks (V6 supercharger, OC daemon etc.) and customizations (boot animation). Some of them you can choose at install time. It's fastest and most stable CM9 based ROM so far. I'm using it as a daily driver and I am fully satisfied.
I agree with people suggesting AOSP ICS ROMs. I also liked Sense until I tried CM9 beta for the first time and now I don't think that I'll ever use Sense again. You can try this one (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1687324) if you want something that resembles Sense 4, but is fully functional unlike current Sense 4 ROMs for DZ.
I'd suggest you try the one in my sig, though, that's what I'm using right now and it's really fast and stable, but I don't think you can go wrong with any CM9 based ROM, they differentiate only in details.
