What is the difference between the 2 files
I use the debloated gingerbread rom from RMK. I like that one alot. Although recently I have been getting bad data issues. I will prolly try both of these OMGB roms and see which one I like better.
The difference is one has more customized features and the first link is mainly just plain gingerbread with a different font style.
I'm new to this game but I've been very happy with CyanogenMod so far. I've had no crashes or problems yet. It's been exactly what I wanted.

I see CM in rom manager but I can't find the roms. Only the nightly ones and those you have to have the premium rom manager. Do you get them from their website?

OMGB = Oh My GingerBread = Pure Gingerbread Stock
OMFGB = Oh My Fxxxxxx Gingerbread = Modified/Customized(however you want to call it) version of OMGB
I'm diggin OMFGB right now. Very simple with enough customization options to keep me happy, I'm not really a customization freak though lol. Its been very stable for me since I flashed the 7/24 nightly and is a great ROM overall.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using XDA App
If you want to stay mostly stock, rmk's Gingersense. Otherwise, I'm running OMGB, and now that I've figured out some more "major" issues, I'm not seeing myself going back.
OMFGB is a slightly more customized version of OMGB, nightlies only (90% sure on that), but still pretty stable too though.
I wish some other ROMs besides RMK had a compass fix. I use google sky and google maps a lot so it's the only ROM I use. I wish some other ROMs would fix the compass issue like they did with the OTA GB update.
left CM for OMFGB so far Im impressed. I realized I really liked sense and I can actually hear people when they call. I also like the fact when you dial a couple digits of the persons name it brings up their #, Not sure whats that feature is called but That was something I was missing in CM

Alright, let's try to solve this. What ROM are you coming from? Did you do a full system, cache, dalvik wipe? What radio to you have? I think the current radio is 1.09.01.0622. Does your md5 match 888c72b821a250cc5c92c93ce44b4a88? Btw md5 is to make sure your download is not corrupt, a simple google search will find you a app to do this. If you are getting past the splash screen it will take around 2-6 minutes roughly to boot from the mik mik animation.

I'm currently rooted stock. Like I gained s-off with alpharevx's tool, and then flashed clockwork and Su. And yeah, I wiped all that stuff. I tried a fresh download and got the same results. I let the boot animation go for about 5 min. I don't really have reliable access to a computer, so I can't really dl the app to compare sums.

Some Help...
I have tried Almost every rom up here since root was achieved.
I keep going back to CyanogenMod, but OMGB & TSM's Pool Party are both light weight, & Fast ASOP Roms.
Can't stand Sense in any version since I tried an ASOP Rom. I have tried a few of the sense roms to come up here, but I never stay for long. I have much better looking widgets, and am fine without it's over bloatedness
If you want SPEED, STABILITY, CUSTOMIZATION, etc. CM7 is a great choice, but in the end its your phone, Don't be afraid to try a rom for a day and see how it fits you if you don't like it go on to something else!
all of these roms have their ups and downs here are some I have tried at least once.
ASOP
*-CyanogenMod 7 for the HTC Incredible 2 Beta
*-CyanogenMod 7 Nightlys
*-OMGB 1.2.1
*-OMFGB 1.3.0 Nightlies
*-TSM PoolParty v1.3
*-MIUI WTF If I wanted an iPhone I would have bought one!
Sense
*-TSM GingerBangVanilla 1.7
*-Virtuous Unity 1.31.3 :: Sense 3.0
I also recommend a better Recovery like Amon Ra or the fixed ClockworkMod by Matt Devo that has many different color choices.
A better recovery will make your flashing life much easier since we don't have a track pad like the Incredible or the Aria and all the clicking gets old FAST!Don't forget a kernel!
Better battery life and the over clock speeds are just some of the things they fix, and some will help with sound volume issues in the ASOP Roms

Sense is heavier so AOSP roms will have better battery life. Sense has its widgets and camera. I don't know if it's better for CM7. 2 but I had multitouch issues with CM and MIUI and aerovan v. 7 kernel so that's the reason I switched. You should try it and see if you like it or not. Personally, I love MIUI but I can't live with the multitouch issues so I changed to SkyRaider Zeus

Sense 4.0 with GSM
Do you know a Sense 4.0 ROM for GSM?
I go back and forth between sense and CM7.2 Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Sense bluetooth works WAY better for me, but I like the customization of CM7 and the quickness.
Magnolia and Skyraider Zues have been my favorite sense roms and gotta give it up for Condemned's CM7 rom.
Your mileage may vary of course..
I prefer Sense to CM7 and CM9 too.

All ics roms for vivow have some issues. The question is do you want sense or aosp?
UKB is probably the best sense rom out right now. Sense 4, android 4.0.3. Smooth, fast, excellent battery. Camera fcs a lot for some.
For aosp, you have Kangdemnation or an older version of PA. PA is moving on to JB, but I think version 1.9.5 is ics.
Most of the problems are camera related, but many have been fixed. BT is another area of concern/ongoing development. Sound issues, too.
Search through the threads for these issues before you ask a question. Most of these threads are quite large.

If you don't feel the need for Ice Cream Sandwich, I use Cyanogenmod 7.2 stable for my "old reliable" It's much faster than stock, better battery life, and everything works 100% for me. Just my 2 cents.
I'm pretty much a rookie myself, and wanted the most stable ics rom I could get. The UKB looked great, but I decided to try tazz's ic rom first. It sounds like it should be stable too. I just flashed it earlier today, so haven't had much time with it yet, but so far it looks great. It sucks as much as everyone in that thread promised.
In my experience, Tazz's ROM is probably the number one out there right now. Granted, you're stuck with Sense but there are some devs out there stripping Sense away from this ROM and another one. Everything works out of the box (including camera which is huge for me), but like I mentioned, you're stuck with Sense and I've personally moved to Paranoid Android 1.5a which has CM9 as a base. Works pretty great, although my ffc pictures often show up corrupt/glitchy/garbled. Now to make more posts so I can have the privilege of commenting about this bug...

If u r on cdma then use UKB X, if on gsm use IC Tazz. Both the roms are very gud. I faced bootloop in gsm with UKB X and V.
otherwise ukb is better.

LOL yeah, that was an entertaining and informative thread!
I just stuck to the Aeroevan's CM9 07/12 build with v12 kernel (pretty outdated, but I don't use the phone anymore) and gave it to my mother. So far, she's loving it to the point where she's completely oblivious to the world when she's using an app.
I woild definitely recommend Aero's CM9 build if you want a speedy rom with mostly everything working (720p recording doesn't work sadly)
But if you want an extremely stable ROM, then go for Tazz/Mac's IC Tazz ROM and have fun with the suckiness of the ROM. XD
I woukd also recommend Nit's UKB just because it's a treat and its packed with lots of Sense 4.0 goodies.

If you want stable but don't like stock, I would suggest cm7 (mrom) or the old gingerbread miui (though this may be harder to find unless someone still has it, try rom manager). Ics and jellybean can be iffy since we never got an official release and a proper kernel.

I say CM7 (even their latest nightly has a lot of customizations) or Skyraider Zeus (what I am currently running). Although ICS works really well - it has its glitches which could be frustrating for someone who doesn't want to deal with workarounds.
thanks for all the replies! I've got her on miui v4 for now. she likes the miui look and theme options. if she decides she doesn't like it, I'll probably go with cm7.

One of the smoother/fast roms and the battery life is amazing. Easily double what I got on Viper's.

Agree with this. Although I've only tried CM7 because I'm all about battery life and stability. MROM does that and more. The UI is clean and everything is zippy. It really gets the most out of this phone. Who needs ICS or Jellybean when you have a kickass rom like this?

totally agree with you. I've had a droidx for a few years and have stuck with the gb roms the whole way. I've tried all the ics ones, but they all have their issues, even if it's just battery life. every once in awhile I even flash a froyo rom and love it...

MROM
Incredicontrol overclocked to 1.3GHz
Zeppelinrox's V6 Supercharger and Kick Ass Kernelizer scripts
Flawless functionality, battery life, and stability.
Theme it however you want.
Good luck with the phone! It's a good one that is overlooked.

I have run this rom with and without the scripts, I don't see much if any difference. You don't have to use those if you don't want to. And you don't need an app to overclock, it has that in settings. But you can use that to undervolt and change I/o's. As phonetool stated, this rom runs really well on this phone. Give it a shot.

I had been using DKStunna's Global 10.1 JB ROM build 3 as my DD for a few months and it was mostly stable. It would lag out once in a while I was managing apps, but it was pretty fast with the built-in Nova Launcher. I got tired of not having a working camcorder and since DKStunna broke his Vivow and ceased development I decided to switch to ChillyBean's ParanoidAndroid/PAC 2.19 ROM. So far it's been awesome! It has "inverted" GAPPS, Facebook, and some other core system apps, which I'm not a fan of, but it's supposedly something you can change. I have a working camcorder again (after a few tweaks), which is what I was looking for. It looks like ChillyBean broke his Vivow also so I don't know how much more development he'll be able to do, which is very sad. Anyway, I highly recommend the latest ParanoidAndroid.

You don't have to change anything for the inverted gapps. Just flash the normal ones instead. Then you never have the inverted ones to begin with.
