Fast Sense 3.5 - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

Is there another sense 3.5 rom with beats audio that runs fast (little/no lag)

Have you looked at newt's Incredible HD RLS 1.1?
Sense 3.5 / Android 2.3.5 with beats audio

Maybe the new Virtuous Affinity, I think it's in there.

Ive used both of the mentioned ROMS.
Im still on Virtuous. It feels more natural to me.
I dont experience much lag either...after synching four email accounts, Twit/FB, LinkedIN, etc.
Give them both a shot - but full wipes between them.
Oh and I dont know what Beats is. I use PowerAMP - best 6 bucks ever spent.

I've had issues with calling on both virtuous and Inc HD.. kinda wish someone else had the issue so I could know why its happening

Thats weird.
Do you have call issues on the RUU as well?
I had a lot of call issues on IncHD. But none on Virtuous. I use MyLock because my beard activates the call screen often and disconnects the call. lol.

[Q] Is Cyanogen better?

What is so good about cyanogen is it good enough to move from leedroid v1.2 Rom?
What are the advantages of cyanogen?
Thanks

I there,
I have run cyanogen and leedroid on desire HD.
I personally like the sense interface and cyanogenmod has this removed.
I have been a fan of cyanogen on the g1 for a while now and always keep an eye on what is available but When I first got my desire HD I really fell for sense. I use the facebook/contact integration etc but a lot of users don't want this. CM has a good solid rom with all the extras removed. It is nice and fast and responsive but doesn't contain sense or google apps by default. You can add the google elements though.
I went for it to try it out and simply missed sense but was impressed with the speed etc
give it a go and see what you miss
have fun
Thanks I'll check Cyanogen out today.

Hi,
I found myself asking the same question but not only about CM roms, about any rom and I must say, I've tried Android Revolution and CM and all I can say is wow.
With stock, I found my phone struggling to last a whole day before the battery died, now with CM, it easily lasts a day - absolutely amazed by it.
As for the software itself, I am more than happy with it, I too like some aspects of Sense, others really annoy me so I'll never be truly happy with either direction!
All I can say is give it a try - everyone is different and will like different things! One thing is for sure though, your battery will be happier!
sense is better imo, im using cm6 customized alot but id much rater be on sense because of the camera contacts and all the other goodies you get like srs and dolby sound, battery i never had a problem with either one of them cm6 is known for battery problems on some phones
i like how you can easily customise the status/notification bar but thats as far as it goes for whats better, people will go on about speed improvements etc but there really isnt any its more placebo than anything i find
but each to their own
ill just stick to sense and wait for LeeDROID's v1.3 update coming in the next few weeks.
Thanks everyone.
I recommend you try revolution, I preferred it to CM. Battery life is 50% better than stock.

Reflex vs insertcoin vam rcmix

Anyone tried all three?
Any thoughts to share?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Well, tried all three, I think Insertcoin is the fastest but Reflex looks nicest
i am using reflex atm... haven't tried insercoin or rcmix so can't comment but reflex is pretty stable, no major issues so far apart from outgoing call, cannot hear the other person... but the fix is to set network to gsm only
I've tried insertcoin and rcmix (still on it) as well, and the 2nd one "seems" a little faster for me.
rcmix is a little more faster than insertcoin IMHO!!
if you don't care about sense try oxygen

Sense is something I need because of the widgets HTC provides with it. I tried CM7 with some substitute widgets, but they are not that good as Sense...
Aside from that I have huge problems with CM in calls.
The only thing I hate about Sense is that you cannot customize it, or use its native widgets on custom launchers. Everything else is perfect.
htc sense is better than any other launchers imo... there's no real equivalent for its widgets!

i think it depends on the widgets you use. i'm very happy with the agenda/facebook widgets launcher pro plus provides. for the contact widget i use desktop visualizer.
someone said reflex looks nicer. how come? i thought all these roms have sense 2.1 with parts from 3.0
I'm using InsertCoin CM7 v20, totally recommend this one. I haven't used the others, but I am so satisfied with this one I don't really need to
i am using reflex
insertcoin and rcmix also used
reflex and rcmix a problem with Chinese Input Method
But will insertcoin the HTC_IME.apk applied reflex or rcmix Rom can be resolved

Reflection and RCMix, the default CPU adjustment range is different, adjust the strategy is different
RCMix, without overclocking, the adjustment range is relatively small, but it feels more smooth

[Q] HTC Sense 3.0 Rom: which runs faster/ less bugged

Ive flashed a few sense 3.0 roms on my phone i ran kingdom rewind, shooter rewind, synergy, etc. main pet-peeve ive had with those are the lag with the rotating home screens. So i opted to a 2.1/3.0 sense (optimized shift) but it has a bug with auto-correct which changes the letter im typing (ex. when i type m it will show a j n change the letter to that) which is really annoying. I wanted to see wat 3.0 roms are other people using/ having success with, and mainly ones that run fast & smooth.
Incredibly RE-engineered3D runs without lag its still labeled beta but very stable Incredible Sensation and Community rom are both good as well. Wait for the new releases on the last two though
Incredible Sensation, Shooter Rewind, and Community are all very nice.

It is good though not a sense 3.0 rom. Its sense 2.1 with sense 3 elements such as lockscreen and weather. A full sense 3.0 rom has the 3d carousel.

I've tried them all and it really does come down to personal preference.
Try one until you decide on one you like. For me it's NilsP Business Gingersense 3.0. No lags, no issues, the guy always makes solid roms.

Could someone throw Joelz topic link in here for his rom?

Synergy RLS1 has been the best rom I've found. My battery life is close to 2 days and its very fast for me.
But I agree, just figure out what you need to move/copy the important things between flashes and try a few until you find something that works/you like.

idky but whenever i flash synergy, when the phone starts up the locksreen doesnt show up for about 10-20+ mins. im using clockwork 3.0.0.8 i think thats what it is. ill just try community and the new pure shooter roms
Synergy is a 2.1 rom with a few apps
pulled from sense 3.0 roms, it doesn't compare to real sense 3.0 roms.

A more decent rom that's fast and not laggy?

I"m seriously annoyed at the fact most of the sense roms or hybrid sense 2.0 + 3, 3.5 whatever, seems super laggy. Maybe it's this phone but for now I have to use this and it just is not acceptable.
Plus my limit number of ROMS due to AOSP not fixing up the voicemail bug with Rogers/Bell voicemail notification not showing up.
So far there is only virtuous G lite that works with VM notification and is AOSP and NOT laggy.
So can someone suggest me a good fast rom, I don't really care about features much, just something fast and doesn't lag 1 second everytime I try to scroll the homescreen or status bar.
I don't know what other people are doing to use those sense roms or maybe they have super patience to deal with the lag.

Pyromod is the fastest rom that I have tried yet. I'm using xboarder's rom now and I am very pleased. CM7 is pretty smooth too but the above two I listed smoke CM7 in my opinion. I gave up on sense, too much flashy stuff that gets old when you just want to be productive. O also look at miui, I was very pleased with that too as far as speed.

[Q] Good ROM for the Wife's EVO 4G (in which Video conferencing works - gtalk, etc)

I keep up with the forums for equipment I own and use (unfortunately, NOT so much on my wifes), but although I've read through many topics on this EVO 4G - my wife's phone, I'm still not completely sure which ROM to go with.
What would be a good ROM for my wife's Sprint EVO 4G? I have custom ROM's on all of my personal devices (phones and tablets) but I haven't done anything at all to hers and just realized that video doesn't work on her gtalk (among other things). Is there a good custom ROM (close to stock, that is rooted and has gtalk video working)?
Thanks in advance for the help, I'll keep reading through the forum in the meantime (I still haven't even rooted her EVO yet - although I've got her on CM7 for her B&N Nook Color and she loves it)!!
Cm7 works really well with evo4g and has 4g working. Looks like she might be used to it from nook so give it a try. If she wants she can also experiment with MikG which is a sense rom. IMO those have been greatness. Also Decks 1.3 is good, like Cm7 but he gets rid of the bloatware.
Don't forget to hit thanks

CM7 is very good though I did have some issues with stability for some reason. I now use the The EVO Classic Sense Redefined by tommytomatoe but use the version without Sense since I was never a big fan of the overlay.
Good luck
Doc
I never got skype working with CM7. I don't know about gtalk.
I am using Ice Cream Sense rom as a daily. 4G. skype works. better battery life than running CM7, in my experience. And of course GPS works too, which is borked half the time with CM7. If your wife uses google maps for anything (or everything), you probably want to be careful about breaking GPS.

Yes, she definitely uses google maps, so Thanks for the heads up! I may look into the ICS rom then. Do you know of anything that's 'not' working in ICS? Video works fine with Skype?
I installed MikG on my wife's EVO month's ago, and it's working well for her.
