Sense or not

I know that this question was probably posted before, but I figured I would post it again because people's opinions change over time.
I have been running cm7.2 for a while now and was wondering what perks some sense roms have over cm7.2 if any at all and if it would be worth it to switch to a sense rom?

Honestly, try SkyRadier on teambamf.net and just see for yourself. It's hard to talk about all of them.

The ONLY reason I would go back to a sense rom is for the camera.

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

+1 on the SRZ. I'm sticking this one out until we get our ics leak.

I lost my phone for about a week. When I was helping my friend clean his house I found it in his chair and the camera was cracked. I can't even open any camera app. On top of that I just realized my speaker is about to blow out

I looked at the gnex, but it really didn't appeal to me that much. I saw some pictures about a phone rumored to be the inc3 coming out this summer so I am gonna wait and see what happens with that before I decide on a new phone.

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.

Not until HTC releases source for ICS.

I prefer sense because of how stable it is. I have been running magnolia most of the time, but I have like 5 different roms on my sd card so I never know what I will be running from day to day.

Proportion of Android versions on desire

Hey guys I thought it would be interesting to start a poll to find out what are the android versions that people are using on our 2+years old HTC Desire.
For me, I'm running ics.. what about you guys???

Most are using Gingerbread. Some are on ICS. Any user who is still on Froyo at this point probably doesn't have any idea about rooting and or XDA or just wanna be left alone in the past.
No need for a poll or a thread really.

Ye.
Best rom thread with a flavor twist.

I'm on ICS now (miui v4)

MIUI 2.3 working perfectly

ICS too ! With the rom of dk_zero-cool.
Everything runs fast on my old device

would be interesting who is still on 2.1
I think that was the shipping version, right?

Still using xj miui 2.3

Currently on off GB, downloading runnymede's sense 3.5 rom

I'm on Miui ICS... !!! Best ROM ever
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA

I'm using ICS from DK_Zero-Cool (v3.3u1). Most stable one i've experienced until now

MIUI XJ since New year, probably will try with some Sense ROM soon

I'm still using CM7.2 RC1. Very stable and fast.
Could anyone explain to me why everybody is so hyped about ICS? I mean I appreciate what the devs of ICS ROMs do and it's great that they make ICS possible on our old Desires.
I tried Sandvold's ROM and BCM. They're quite good and making good progess, but I always came back to CM7.
I actually don't see a point in switching to ICS (yet) unless you like flashing and testing new ROMs, because CyanogenMod 7 and other 2.3 ROMs seem more stable and faster and they have all the features ICS offers.
Is it the looks of ICS or just that it's new and you want to test it?
I'll probably switch over eventually, but at the moment I'm just curious what you like about ICS.

[Q] Is Sense 3.6 too heavy for Desire?

Sense 3.5 is running perfectly, 4.0 no lags so my question is why 3.6 is such a big deal? (No offense)

Best stable ROM (any version of android, for general usability)

I'm giving my old HTC Desire to my friend, but before I do I want to flash the best ROM for a laymen's use, in terms of stability, battery life and speed.
Personally, I have a Galaxy Nexus with JB and I love it - I think JB heralds a new era in which android finally shows that iOS is just hype and not god.
I've seen there are ROMs right the way up to Jelly Bean, which I find pretty amazing considering the age of the Desire handset - however, there must be quite a few issues to iron out, and I doubt that my friend, who will be more worried about his phone working than whether it's up to date with android, will appreciate these issues.
So which ROM would you recommend? Quick answers appreciated cause I need to give him the phone within two hours! Lol
Thanks for your help

Stable Rom
I really enjoy Mr. mephisto and RSK team rom, the 3.5 sense is awsome and the AMAZE cam is.. well.. AMAZING.
I have it for almost 2 months now.
It gives the old Desire a great new look!
and with the aroma installer is super customized.

No freezes, running smoother than any other rom i had.
you need S-off with CM7 and 4EXT touch recovery.

It's beautiful and stable, but it's too heavy (read slow) even on fast sd. If you have to sell the phone, just install stock rom (with sense), or an aosp like cm7 or oxygen.

No man, install stock Oxygen rom , create partition ext4 for a2sd. And that is it. Rom is completely bug free, and it has bedt battery life. Speed is great, and no laggs at all !

U wouldnt happen to have a working link to COOL DROID v3 ?

The only reason I might even consider changing this rom I'm using would be somewhat poor multitasking. But I think I'll most likely need to finally upgrade to a better device.

Erklat, why don't you try cool droid? I find multitasking good on that one. I had the rom you're using before, and it's one of the best, but cool droid is even better.... I am sure you'll like it.

Oxygen 2.3.2 + thalamus r4 kernel. Use Oxygen r2 hboot. If You need more space, with GParted make ext3 or ex4 partition.
I've found it best combination (almost one year using it). It's not full of widgets like Sense roms, but You can install Fancy Wigdets or Beautiful Widgets for clock and weather similar to Sense.

I put the last stable version of miui on my dads desire, and it runs perfectly so far. Using the 2.3.7 os which is pretty stable.idk about battery life tho
