[Q] What rom do you use? Looking to try a few different ones out :)

Hi there
So quite simply, what rom do you use and what's great about it and what's not so good?
I've got ARHD at the moment, rock stable, battery is good (it usually idles at about 3ma) and has the ability to over/under clock.
I'm thinking of trying some form of CM7, but which one? What do you think of rcmix? I need a rom that's good enough for every day use (not experimental, I will still be calling, sending sms and browsnig) Help me please

If you want to use something like CM7 or let's say something like pure google, try [email protected] by adwinp.
This ROM has the best performance of all, especially the graphics performance is amazing.
Battery life should be about the same as on other roms.

CM7 is good and fast , didn't find it all that amazing though missed the functionality of my camera! So I started on the same journey to find a good rom , stable oc'able , with good support and regular updates fixes..
In the end I have settled on beatmod gingersense , running the 1.2 version for now shortly moving it to 1.3 ..
Mind you this is all if you like sense .
A quick link to save time too.

i'm using tb fusion http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1077180 but when i'll have some time i'll switch to honeysense 4.0

Hey!
I'm using LeeDroid HD a long time. At first the Froyo version and now Gingerbread.
I was very sceptic about sense, in my first attempts to use it it was extremely laggy and used to freeze and force close at least once a day.
So I tried other launchers, CM 6 and 7, but in the end I went back to LeeDroid. His last version, V3.1.3 with the 3.1.4 kernel is very stable, smoother than all other roms I used and Sense is doing very well, I was surprised. What is important to me is a good battery life and the battery lasts up to 5 days, depending how often and long I use the phone.
That was a big problem of CM. The battery drained very fast, although I liked the idea of a clean Android.
Hope I could give you some impressions

Maybe this poll + thread will help you out.
I'm on Android Revolution HD btw, absolutely great rom

I use LEVO 2.5V
I think is wonderful rom
DeSiRe HD -> XDA App

Currently on ARHD, but I'm going to try something differnet this weekend, sticking with a Sense mod, just my personal preference. Think I'll try either RCMix3D or Honeysense 4.

I used Revolution HD for a long while and it's an excellent rom. However, it becomes a problem when you want to move from the stock look to something more personal, because many mods come separately and overwrite files previous mods changed. I recently switched to HoneySense and despite not being so mature it has the look I want (no more custom zips at last) and works pretty well with minor flaws. MIUI also has a place in my heart although I'd miss some Sense goodies if I switched, which is what keeps me away for now.
I hope it helps.

+1 for honeysense v5.0 battery excellent speed excellent and very pretty.

After using CM7 for several months, as well as a brief stint with LeeDroid 3.1.3, I'm back to stock.
CM7 + LordMod kernel, despite flashing updated radios and RILs, wrought havoc on my reception and GPS. I dropped 50% of my calls, and GPS took ages to lock on (even after using Fast Reboot + FasterFix). Moreover, my 3G connection would drop out constantly, which was a PITA when streaming Last.fm and AudioGalaxy.
LeeDroid solved my reception issues, but it would spontaneously reboot and get caught in a boot cycle until I pulled the battery. This happened at least twice a day.
So it's back to stock for me. I miss the freedom of custom roms, but when it comes to my primary communication device, I need stability. Being on KT in Korea, I haven't got the GB OTA update yet (booooo), and I can't download games from the market.

[Q] The Best ROM experience ? share pls.

Ok., so Many New ROM's... which make's newbies get confused which is the best.
Best in term's of:
1.stability
2.design
3.compatibility
4.usability
5.user experience
6.support for new updates
7.user friendly
8.no bug's
9.Global mode
10.Battery life.
guy's pls. share your thoughts.... so I/YOU can decide. which is which
Thanks.

If you want sense try This one. It is by far my favorite sense rom as of right now. If you don't want sense OMFGB is the most stable, and fast non-sense rom I have used.

Ok, I'll bite
Best in term's of:
1.stability - Currently running Miui 1.8.19 Very stable. Unity also very stable for me.
2.design - Depends on if you want a Sense based rom or AOSP Rom... Unity for Sense was great. I love Miui for the customization's.
3.compatibility - So far I have been able to use any of the usual apps that I would run with the stock non rooted rom.
4.usability - Miui has been a very usable daily driver for me. MMS works, calls have no issues. Wifi works... Don't use BT so can't say on that.
5.user experience - very good
6.support for new updates - Haven't need to use this yet. But from what I have seen, the support on most of the roms we have available is good.
7.user friendly - I would say that the Sense based roms may be more user friendly to someone that has been using Sense based roms. Miui is pretty simple to get the hang of as well as the other AOSP (Cyanogen and others).
8.no bug's - only bug I have found in Miui, is the soft touch keys don't rotate when going to landscape mode. No biggie as I didn't expect them to.
9.Global mode - Haven't used this yet.
10.Battery life - Battery life has been great with both Unity and Miui. This could be due to the fact of the custom Kernals and being UV'd. Both have easily lasted all day under heavy use. I plug into the charger at night before going to bed, and generally have 40% battery left.
Hope this may help someone out

thanks ...I need more ideas so i can compare ,. keep it coming

I'm running CM7 Nightlies #48
1.stability - extremely stable so far. The only FC I get is when I first boot up ADW EX FC's, but I think it's because I'm impatient
2.design - I love the look of vanilla android. If you don't, or think it's boring, you won't like it. There are boat load of themes, though. And the great thing is all CM7 themes are compatible, regardless of which phone
3.compatibility - I haven't ran into any apps that I can't run
4.usability - very usable. Don't really know how to answer this
5.user experience - excellent, with all the customizable options
6.support for new updates - nightlies, lol
7.user friendly - I would say it is user friendly for anyone who is on XDA. Maybe not your average user, though
8.no bug's - none that I've ran into. Some complain about low volume in calls, but I don't experience that
9.Global mode - haven't tested
10.Battery life - excellent. I can easily get through a day
Edit: I should add that I haven't had a stock rom in god knows how long. So I am very used to little quirks here and there and don't even notice them anymore. Others may

As for omfgb the phone was broken when I tried it. Omgb was pretty much flawless. As of now I'm running the gingersense rooted stock with great results.

I ran OMFGB for a while, it performed well. I really like it because it is slimmed down AOSP but still has some nice features. Didn't seem to have much bugs, but nightlies can always produce bugs for people. OMGB 1.2 is the stable version of it.
Running Miui now because I wanted something different. Its performing well but it doesnt seem as quick OCd at 1.3 as OMFGB was OCd at 1.3 for me. The theme manager and customization in Miui though are awesome. Battery seems good so far.

Grabbed Skyraider Zeus today.....similar to mik Rom mix.....same great stable performance....with a few more features...at least so far lol

Only bug I have ran into is that it wont install certain skins. Not really a big deal but could be a breaker for some people. I tried honeybread, glasssense, and one other cant remember and none of them worked. Carbon fiber one does though.

I VERY highly suggest ANY ROM posted by "newtoroot" he has four great and different ROMs. They each have a few bugs, it just depends on your taste as to if the things bother you. Some people can use it as a daily others can't.
ihftp69, release a preview ROM of his SkyRaider Zeus, and is, afaik completely bug free 2.1 Sense ROM experience with sense 3.0 components.

MIUI has been my daily driver for about 2 weeks now. Everything works (MMS, BT, Wifi, etc) and the themes are awesome. Very consistent with updates and has a great dev team. Haven't seen any FCs from the system apps. Also, battery life is great.

Have to echo this remark. Going on a week with MIUI and have had no issues outside of it resetting yesterday while playing around with the music player it came with. Battery is on par with stock, but having a pretty UI means I play with the phone a lot more .

I really like the OMFGB roms, very stable, everything works and its fast. I also like the MIUI rom. I really love that fact that I can use the torch from the home lock screen by pressing the home key! MIUI also has a great dev community as well. It's really a personal preference, but as far as performance, I like those two the best.

Here is another vote for MIUI. Great stable ROM.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using XDA App

If you want some sense 3.0 features, the SkyRaider Zeus beat them all in stability and functionality, haven't found any bugs yet. Virtuous Unity came in close 2nd if you can live with the compass being backward, it lag a bit during first startup, overall it doesn't feel as smooth as Zeus even at 1.3Ghz. Gingerbang 1.5 is my number 1 choice if I want something close to stock, very snappy even at stock speed and it gave me the best battery life even after i overclocked to 1.2Ghz.

I switch between GingerSense and MIUI with great results from both. Exchange nuances keep me coming back to Sense-based ROMs, but MIUI in terms of customization taunts me constantly.
Stability has been great on both as well as compatibility.

[Q] Smoothest and Stabelst Rom

Hey I have a question because I will give my WF to my girlfriend and now Iam asking which one is the smoothest and stabelst rom for daily use? She likes the AOSP Based Roms so I think I will not use Roms like Wildpuzzle.
I hope you can help me out with that I have tried much but I dont know which one is the best and which one you recommend
PS. Sorry for my bad english I hope you understand what I mean

Awesome. This is a first, at least as far as my observations here go!
Try CM7, the latest nightlies can be found in the last few pages of the CM Nightlies thread.

Gee, I sure wish there was some sort of review thread on the first page of the General section... oh right. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1485583

There is no 100% AOSP Smoothest and Stablest Rom,but try cyanogenmod 7 stable http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1143125,or High-Voltage rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1241339 it's stable for every day use.
P.S. Respect to other AOSP Roms developers every Rom is special,and requires much time and work!

according to my experience Cm7 is a bit slow and heavy..
splashmod v.1.8 is as smooth as hell when overlocked to only 633mhz .
i would recommend you trying that one out...

cm7 stable

CM7 Best candidature, or SplashMod! IMHO SplashMod is faster

just flashed splashmod 1.8 from CM7.
much smoother.
CM7 felt sluggish
launcher (golauncher EX) transitions smoother
opening apps quicker
i'm generally happier now with spashmod. still got my nandroid of CM7 which i'll probably switch to every now and again
I'm going to nandroid splashmod once i have it set up then flash rempuzzle and see which of the 3 i prefer and then i'll choose the ROM for me

I have 3 backups on my sdcard cos I am greedy and can't decide which I like best,each has there benefits.ordered in most used only.
1.cm7 nightlys - cm7 is just superior for customization and extras.
2.rempuzzle (self modded) - very nice and responsive,social intergration very good.
3.stock,bareboned,asop slightly tweaked sense based but removed.- used only for skygo purposes.
Very happy with whichever I use.

ADW launcher in CM7 is extremely slow. I've tried all sorts of launchers and so far the fastest is Go Launcher. It seems limit the fancy animations enough so that the phone actually feels quick sometimes.

[Q] Best ROM?????

just a simple question what ROM should i flash.
Which is the best one.
I'd think blacknotes because it has eveything on it.
But Optimized Kezra V4 Final seems good because its claimed no lagg and stuff.

Hi
I am new to the whole rom flashing concept. However after trying all the galaxy w roms in the development section I reached a conclusion that the best rom around is stock rom. U just have to root, add busybox and then apply v6 supercharger and you will have a very stable and responsive device. All other roms had me facing some issue or another.
At least until arco finishes our cm9

It seems that the Cow Bionic rom have highest score from antutu

Are you sure???
What about using new kernel with stock ROM.
....And when you flash a new ROM can you just only restore Data in CWM to get my apps back. i dont want to use titanium back up because its annoying i have alot of apps.

cow rom is the best. most stable. I've tried all the others.

Just so i'm clear.
The roms are pretty stable until I add arabic support. After that I get force close bugs almost 3 times a day. It might be the arabic patch I am using. Anyway after that I went back to stock for UAE and with v6 super charger it's great. I hope to be able to use one of the roms cos I really liked bionic cow 2. But until someone makes it pre set with arabic read/write i'm gonna stick with stock
I also would like to pay respect to all MODers out there. I know they put lots of effort in making the roms and I don't want anyone to think that I don't respect them

how long does the battery last??? 9hrs

Let me share my experience..
I hope it will help.
- I use kezra ROM for my first custom rom and it's work well for me but it's quite laggy when I play hd game.
- And then COW bionic ROM is available. So I try it (non OC version ). Result: it's work perfectly for my daily use.. it's little bit laggy if for HD game but I didn't play much anyway so I use this ROM for quite long until
- hybrid 2nd generation is available. So I decide to try this new ROM.
this ROM is awesome. I didn't get laggy at all when I am play hd game. But unlucky, I encounter many FC if I use it quite a while without restart it.
- alpha 1 for CM9 is available. So try it.. camera didn't work but I didn't care about it.. it's awesome.. very smooth and also didn't laggy for hd game. But I got APN problem and I can't find the solution at that moment. So I m back to COW Bionic ROM.
- and then arco find APN problem solution. So I try it again. And it work perfectly. And I am use it until now (alpha3). So if camera issue is not major issue for you, i do recommend this awesome ROM.
Or just try spent your time to find your soulmate ROM. Life is a choice anyway. ^.^

i think bionic cow 7 v2 it's a stable rom..

currently using FAW rom..for me its the best rom compare to others (IMO)
previously im using hybrid, bionic rom v2 oso kezra v4..
all are great in normal usage..but when come to HD games such as shadowgun, asphalt 6 and others, my previous custom rom tend to cause laggy in the game..and sometime when it become so lag..suddenly it will restart by its self..
but im really glad that there are so many developers out there trying their best for the BEST rom..
and im here..always ready to try it!!thanks you all!!

Just a comment. FAW ROM is using stock XXLM8 kernel while others are using Cow kernel. So far, XXLM8/DXLM3 kernel gives better visual performance.

For England Value Pack
is there a rom for the value pack STOCK only.
Because i want just the stock rom because is good.
Where is the rom if there is one?????

i loved it
excellent yar good job.. keep it up...

i don't know if there was a stock value pack just for England region at the moment, but i suggest you to check it on this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1654643
or, you can search it on sammobile, on its firmware section (just goog it).
and also, AFAIK the value pack for europe region started from series xxlm6 and above (please CMIIW guys, )
and related with the topic of this thread, i think the bionic V2 still the best GB custom ROM for this device (IMO).
really stable and had many alternatives, such as choosing OC or non-OC kernel, smooth/fast performance, or turn on/off the zram with cow panel. All of that features are really innovative, because it give more options for the user to determine their best setting.

oops my bad thought i was in the forum >.<

Mods move this please

Whichever you choose, you won't be satisfied.lol

i offer to you install the revelotion roms ...

satiRM further
it really depends on what you want. lets say you want stock looking android GB so in that case your choice should "Android Revolution HD" 6.X.X I was personally using this rom for a while never had a single problem with it also battery life was very good. and also you might consider Cyanogen MOD 7.2 also GB rom with no HTC sense thats up to you Cyanogen is smooth and never had problems with it but ADW launcher which is used in Cyanogen is not that stable peace of software you would like it to be... anyway I think any GB based custom roms should be stable smooth and bugless... and its not that hard to try several custom roms and then choose your best...
now talking about ICS thats a bit different story there are lots to choose from and almost every ICS cutom rom states that its fully working but in reality I never found ICS rom which is really FULLY WORKING I would call them "almost fully working" because you can found small maybe not that important but still some glitches... Some camera effects may not work, some parts of HTC sense might be little bit buggy but of course nothing serious...
i did tried "blackout", "trickdroid", "sabsa prime" all of them was fine to use daily had some small glitches I mentioned before but no big problems keep in mind that memory "RAM" usage is a lot higher with ICS keep in mind if you multitasking alot but shouldn't be a big problem... actually tried to "break" my phone with intense usage like, listening to music, skyping, browsing web, runing games at the time, installing app from market but phone seemed able to handle all that just fine and thats good
and every ICS rom I tried had one annoying thing there was no "facebook for htc sense" so you must use that crappy facebook app to get your friend profiles synced... that really suck...
and you have an option to use "jellybean" i did tried "jellyTime" r16 had no problems with it but as much as I read about others expierence I would not consider "JT" to be stable and good choise for a new user who just wants to be sure his phone runs flawless...
I'm at moment using "sabsa prime 6.5" stayed with it because it was last rom I tried lol
sorry for my bad english

Now I need to figure out if I like sense or not I guess. thus far Jelly Bean has been my favorite on my play despite the fact that like half the stuff doesn't work >.< So we'll see...
Thx for all the places to start.

Sabsa prime best

Have you ever try CodefireX? The best ever!

iam using Cosmic Sandwich V2 after tersting Trickdroid and JellyTime. IMO its a solid experience for those who like a snappy UI (Miui) and some of the Sense goodies.

In my opinion, skip ICS and go to Jelly Bean. Google Now, some other fun things, you'll be glad you did.
Pick a flavor (there's many options these days). I'd go with CM10 - either codefireX or Jellytime with the KangBang-Kernel v0.1 (separate thread by synergye in the dev forum)

Try coredroid multy device sense 3.5 is the best rom everything works fine even the wifi ,camera are brilliant all rom is great

There appear to be a couple of ICS/sense roms on the forum for the DHD. Most appear to have bugs and issues for one reason or other. Is there a fairly stable ICS with sense rom good for every day use?

I've been loving JellyTime R19. Been up for days without any issues. It has been exceptional.

I have flashed quite a few roms till now and have had mixed experience. Among the ICS roms, I found Trickdroid, Blackout and Nik Project X to be the best. I loved all three of them and currently using Trickdroid. I did not try too many JB roms but like Jelly time.

If you are looking for a stable ROM I would recommend CyanogenMod 7 - it runs GB.
If you want to experiment and don't mind some quirks then I would say JellyTime - it runs JB.
I started on CM7 when I first got my HTC, tried LeeDroid, another one I don't remember, back to CM7 and most recently through several revisions of JellyTime.
Of course YMMV, if you ask 10 people you will get 10 different answers. So you just have to experiment - that's the reason I went through all those different ROMs. I found that I like the CM mods (JT is based on CM10).
