[Q] Most stable 'stock-like' rom

Hey guys
I'm flashing my mom's Desire (she has no need for any extra features above the desire's stock ones) so I'm wondering if you have any recomendations on a very stable and fast ROM?
I would have installed the stock desire rom, but since I rooted and s-offed the device already it seems a waste to lose it.
Thanks alot for your help
Oh and Sense is a must, she just learned how to use it, if i give her an AOSP rom she will have to learn to use it again...

USE THE SEARCH!!! This question was asked soo often.

LeeDroid - great rom!

New Leedroid's hd port is best for me so far.

Can't you install stock s-offed and rooted?

Why would you root it at all when she doesn't need any extra functions? Also, you choose wrong timing to do so with official Gingerbread release in the upcoming weeks.
But, if I was doing so, I'd flash AuraxTSense 8.4.

sorry to barge in but i was wondering the same question! i know whats the OP need, he bought a new phone and giving the Desire to his mom. am i right?
even if you are not, i just bought SGS2 today and giving my Desire to my mum. need recommendation too. the most stock look and can be stable and no performance decrease in a long run. cuz i am gonna be away from her when college opens, so i dont want the phone to have trouble.
S-offed, rooted, Cm7 r2 hboot. but i'll go back to stock hboot maybe.

Try SGBS ROM!!

Teppic74's ROM's are all stock and I started out on them. They're great and have some great power saving features hard coded in.

2.10.405.2 INIT.D ROM v2.0
This version is mostly identical to the first except it has a minor mod to enable init.d scripts. No scripts are included, so this won't affect anything in itself. However, it gives much greater flexibility for mods, and is required if you want to make some of the changes below. This version of the ROM doesn't include the radio, so you must flash an up to date version yourself if you don't have one already. You do not have to install the first ROM before this. Updates: latest Superuser app and new boot image (closer to stock).

http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=404595&d=1284981062 <- A2SD+ highly recommended so that your mum doesn't run out of room after a week of using the phone because contacts, emails and other app data also eat internal storage. Hit me up if you don't know how to partition her SD card to have an EXT4 partition
Basically, if you just flash the first two download links in the quote, you'll have rooted ROM that is entirely stock. No extra features or anything that isn't in the HTC RUU. Then if you flash the powersaving mod, nothing changes featurewise but internally the phone will use less power and her battery will last longer. She won't need to do a thing. With A2SD+, all you need to do is go through installed apps every now and again and move them to the internal storage (as the phone is "tricked" into installing apps on the EXT4 partition instead of on the phone itself, which means more apps available to be installed but just as fast as normal).

Wait, it's S-OFF and rooted? Why not give RCMix S Evolutionary Sense v2.0 a go?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=988570
I've been using it personally since the end of May. No problems at all, just lacking updates (but the developer is busy withj real life, so that's that)
It's using the new Sensation and 2.3.3 Android version and, it's sense, and, it looks sexy.
EDIT:
Also, excuse my tutorial-like post above. If you can S-OFF and root the phone chances are you know half of that!

It was my phone for less than a week over the easter, rooted, s-offed installed rcmix v8 then I got myself my new Desire HD and been using that (sig).
For the Desire I installed RCMix's rom since i didn't mind any bugs, restarts and force closes since i thought i would update it on regular basis with the new versions. But as soon as I got my new phone, I left the country (student in uk) and just came back this week for holidays, and my mom has been complaining with reliability so I'm returning her phone to the most stable build of 'stock-like' rom.
If you mean flashing a RUU and then rooting and s-offing that just seems a bit of a waste of time. Since it's already rooted and s-offed i would like to keep it that way.

I might give it a try but im using sense 3.0 on my DHD and even with the newer CPU and more memory and more frequent updates it still has a few glitches. I searched through the thread and it seems that the ROM still requires some bug fixes (ppl talking about bugs with headset and other small bits and bobs)
Thanks everyone for your replies, I will check out the rom's and see which one will suit her best!

No probs.
I'm using a D2EXT modded version and I don't have any problems with the headset. The v2.0 is pretty ironed out, 2.1 is where people seem to be having issues. But for your mum I guess the Twppic74 ROM would be best, definitely!
@theguybefore Eh, but they're all pretty clear that you need the Cyanogen hboot? I guess you're right!

That's old info. Latest news is that it passed QC and should be released in the next three weeks.
Forget 3.0 etc port stuff etc., you know you need rooted stock. She doesn't care for Sense 3.0 but cares if bluetooth doesn't work with handsfree.

Pretty sure bluetooth works ok with this ROM. It's hit and miss and dependant on hardware. The RCMixS ROM as I said has bee really ironed out. There's also the InsertCoin ROM which he's more up to date with advancements!
Hope you find the Teppic74 ROM well! Served me well for many months.

Superb ROM - Once I'd managed to install it (only recently acquired a Desire from a Hero upgrade) it's been excellent.
I can't find fault: Bluetooth (inc car kit), camera, video, iPlayer, GPS, Speed etc etc all running nice and smooth.
The only thing is that the arcade boot screen might not be to your Mom's liking - although boot time is good.

Fastest AOSP ROM for Wildfire from your experience?

Hello everyone,
I would be interested to know which Wildfire AOSP ROM would you say is the fastest from your experience.
Different opinions are welcome.
Thanks

CM7~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yeah CM7. Although this opinion is narrow minded as i have only ever used this ROM - its fast enough and has all the features i want, i am reluctant to move away from it as i am comfortable with my set up.

CM7 is best for me

I use Oxygen, I have used CM7 but i just find oxygen faster.
It doesn't have the same options, but it fits my needs.

Are you using the Oxygen TEST version from here or some other Oxygen derived ROM?
I'm using an Oxygen derived ROM on my Desire (the Wildfire is my girlfriend's) and I have to say it is noticeably faster than CM7.

To my CM7, but with all the patches around here

Well I'm going against the grain now as I've tested just about every Rom going and after many months of staying away from HTC sense I find rempuzzle lite version to be equally as fast and a heck of a lot more stable than cm7 or oxygen or any of its rip offs. Also with the knowledge I've gained from modding and customizing cm7 to my liking I can make it equally as beautiful.

You can use Staus Bar Settings which can overcome the issue and it is available free in the Market..

I tried every single rom and tested them at least 2 weeks before flashing something new.
First of all; Wildfire is a slow device. You got to live with it.
Second of all; All roms are slow because wildfire is slow. You need to find the most stable rom. Which is, either CM7 or Rempuzzle. Oxygen is pretty stable as well.

off topic but 37.41mbs? thats mental!
anyway, I hadnt changed my cmw between nandroids. only found out how to change it when i updated my radios last week.
recently i've been getting loads of FC's and jumping launchers and weird stuff happening on my CM7. I've been happy with it since december now but its starting to bug me. I need a more stable ROM thats going to run smoothly.
As Scratch said above, I'm sure with my knowledge of modding and buggering things up and then fixing them, i can find a more stable rom and get it how i like it.

After trying various rom's over the last couple of months, including aosp and sense based rom's, I've settled on oxygen rom as my favorite.
For me, both the asop and sense rom's would load quickly and work well. But i prefer the asop based rom's for their look /style.

Lol. I have a very comfortable internet speed.
I took scratches comments into account and decided to try rempuzzle too after being back on jokerdroid for a while.
And I am impressed too with this rom after removing and editing to my own preferences. But I have been experiencing some annoying cwm restore issues after backup.keep getting bootloops but I think It may have had something to do with previous custom mtds and/or old dta2sd script flash. Although jkd didn't present these issues. Anyway flashed fresh cwm 5.0.2.7 jrodd version and updated to dta2sd beta 3 and started from scratch (no pun) with rempuzzle again so gotta find time to mess with framework then report back.
Both roms I've mentioned are very good but I think I might end up reverting back to cm7 eventually. Lol I get bored very quick.
P.s off topic but is there any way to hide/show status bar with 1 click or swipe method etc etc for sense!!!

[Q] [Question] Going back to Stock Froyo !

Hey XDA ,
This is my first Post here , Pardon me if I sound noobish (I'm a noob but I learn fast and I'm on my way of becoming an electrical enigeneer)!
I have an HTC Wildfire , rooted using the method in this thread a few months ago
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145035
I'm Currently on CM 7.1.0.1 , and I have CWM 5.0.2.0 flashed
I went through a few versions of CM7 and this is the one that satisfies me the most.
However , I want to go back to Stock Froyo , basically because I want more stability and I think It'd be nice to have sense back (And I think the GPS is not working but It's not too important for me) , and I thought , I already have the phone rooted so I can install custom kernels , OC , ... , while still having the stock ROM .
I heard that going back to Froyo would make me "Lose" the Rooting .
First of all , What does this mean ? and is there a way of doing it without "Loosing " Root or Bricking the phone ?
If not , please recommend the best Sense ROM available that could be as good as CM7 with minimal known bugs (would appreciate download links).
One last thing (Don't know if it's relevant) , I partitioned my SD and it's working great using the Link2SD App , Is my SD still a GoldCard?
I went through the forums and couldn't find an answer , And again , sorry for sounding like a noob and thanks in advance !

Hey pal your best bet is to run a custom froyo sense rom that will keep root and work with your Sdcard partition. I suggest rem puzzle as its fast stable with app2sd and GPS working. Something to note, when you install it it will reboot a few times and take up to 15 minutes. Its normal, don't panic

I vote for ARHD and Team PkMn ROM - Charmeleon which will be upgrade this night..
For non sense ROM i really like the features on ParanoidAndroid..

I like jdroid as lessened sense. Keeps sense beats and sense camera.

[Q] root, upgrade or other

Hi there
I am new to this forum but have been told this is the forum to go to for continuing development on the htc desire.
I bought an unlocked htc desire from ebay but as there are no updates was wondering what would be my best options for improving performance and enhancement of the phone.
I would like to know wether i should root the phone.
Upgrade to 2.3
or just leave it.
I would like to extend battery life and update the rom to like jellybean or other.
please advise me

My advice would be start off with a good gingerbread Rom (android 2.x), as its a mature format you can be pretty sure the phone will be stable, and all features will work. I like both the RSK team's Rom and mildwild's cm7 one, but there are many I've not tried.
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk 2

You should definitely root, and s-off it to get the best out of it. For this, check the "All Things Root" guide in my sig.
As frosty said, you should start with a stable GB rom, whether it's Sense or not.
If you only want to upgrade the Desire to the official 2.3 rom, then check the RUU in my sig.

root, upgrade or leave
thankks for that.
are there only a certain amount of customs roms available for Desire , ie, CM7(GB) or can you install newer versions.
This rooting sounds good but before i doi am going to need to know more, especially the continual development for this device.
is there still good support from XDA for this device.
I am after good support and devlopment.

Why not look at the development thread and make up your own mind if the community is active or not?
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk 2

root, upgrade or leave
looks busy.
just hope i dont do the wrong thing.
so is it possible to install other roms apart from cm7 what about the latest roms??

Read the first couple of posts, and the last few pages of the thread to get a feel for stability and issues. I see a simple, basic decision process, decide if you want something new and shiny, which might have a few problems, or something old and maybe a bit boring, but reliable.(gingerbread vs ics/jb)
Once that decision has been made just choose your Rom, make sure you have the right hboot for the one you want to try, so long as you have your nandroid backup to fall back on you're unlikely to break anything.

I have been reading the posts and threads about rooting and it sounds quite complicated.
Reading a mag about android and rooting you can also do it without connecting to your pc.
As I am not technologically minded on phones , the mag seemed to make it sound easier.
I think the software for the phone or website is called z4??
any ideas on this.
many thanks

A quick search suggests it's not a lot of use for us. Rooting and s-off are relatively complicated, but worth the rewards, and you can't expect a whole new phone experience without a little effort...

I'm in similar situation. I rooted my 2.2 Froyo yesterday. Installed Link2SD made appropriate partition and moved apps to it. So thats not the problem anymore.
Now I'm wondering if I should instal custom ROM and which one?
My high priorities:
Stability
Advanced functions working properly (eg. tethering)
Speed (faster than stock froyo)
My low priorities:
As new as possible (JB?)
Sense
Easy to install
Which one should I get? Or should I stay on Froyo?

You can't have sense and jb at the same time. If you want sense, you will have to install gb. If you want JB, you will have stability problems after a while, if not in the first week.
So what you are asking is impossible to fulfill.
If you want a stable sense, try Coolsense v3, or Runnymede aio special edition.
If you want jb, then try VJ's JB.

root, upgrade or leave
thanks for that.
so my aim is the following:
1.- newer and stable rom
2.- better performance
3. good and continual support for that rom.
all help welcome.

Once you've gone through the process of rooting and flashing a new (to you) rom that's known to work, do the backups and have a look at the new stuff we'll never officially have, ics and jb. That backup will be there to give you a quick "Get me outta here" option.
