ive rooted my desire and now im thinking about a custom ROM but dont know which i should use.
my main priority is more internal space with a good look. i want something complete , without loads of bugs etc . i love the look of the new ics roms but obviously they are not finished
You'll probably end up using Runnymede AIO either way, so no point in further debating about it.
On a more rational level - Supernova extreme.

Absolutely nothing! That's the point
aosp all the way for me
Try MIUI rom!
Get something really blingy. Then you'll get tired of chasing millivolts and look for a stable stock ROM. Go on! Get it over with! Better sooner than later.
Try Mildwild oxygen
It looks great and is for me one of the fastest Roms I've tested.

What's aosp? I can't find it in a search . What are the perks of the recommended roms ?
Having looked at some of the suggestions I have to admit runnymede does look very nice and the beats audio would be great as I listen to a lot of music on my phone . But I take your points about the flashy aspect . Supernova extreme looks almost perfect , shame it hasn't got beats though lol .
But so far Supernova extreme is my favorite
Another vote for MildWild 3.2 here. Have tried LeeDroid, MIUI, MIUI-AU ICS, Sandvold ICS and CM9 beta, MildWild looks and feels like Ice Cream Sandwich, is blindingly quick and just works nicely.

Beats audio is just a lame ass marketing ploy of HTC. Lol. As for me I'm satisfied with the default music player plus dsp manager on aosp rom.

AOSP is Android Open Source Project. Rom build from AOSP doesn`t have htc sence but it is faster and far more stable then sense based rom, and of course it has better battery life . You have mentioned that you want more space. You should consider changing your hboot to data++ or oxygenr2 because you will have more space on internal storage but there is a down side, you will not be able to use Sense based roms. If you don`t know what is hboot you can read about it here

Definitely the one in Italy!
Or the rom from a faulty DHD.

it is for iphone android lovers but it can be turned into a great functioning rom, add a launcher and all thats left is all the options and apps etc.
it really is a good variant of android just not suited to me,i know loads of users love it,theres an ics theme for it as well which looks nice,i used to think it was cack,a lot of effort went into miui though and it shows

Hi, the best are sense roms. I suggest sense 3.5 roms cause there are more live effects and panorama function: Er3bus Final, Smartdroid 3.1T and Android Revolution HD 7.0.2 are the best actually.
Er3bus and Android Revolution are similar: both stock looking, similar performances. Your choice.
Smartdroid 3.1T is more tweaked (perfomance and look). I haven't tried this but Memnoc is a great dev e his thread is full of satisfied people i suppose this has a camera comparable to the other two.
I have ARHD cause i prefer stock looking!
Hope this can help you! Sorry for my bad english!

I wish it too!! There is some hope's of improving it with the portings of new RUUs of the HTC One V and S but i'm a bit skeptical.
This period is a bit boring for DHD users cause the lack of official DHD ice cream leaks is a problem for making stable ported rom with all the funcions working. Camera is the hardest to port I think!
I hope that new RUU's leak are coming fasttttt
Be honest of all the roms...rcmix 4.0 has a banging camera...shame its on a srnse rom..id go back to sense if it didn't blast the crap out of my battery

Well it affected many functions of the phone I doubt it
Using this on my Desire S. Much much much faster than 3.5.
This ROM is perfect because it has the same specs as our phone.
Why do you want a One X port? We will need to resize images etc, and will be slower as its designed for a quad-core phone, we are only on a single core, with less RAM.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
you are right. Its damn fast. But however, the ROM is just as fast, because a lot is missing (Widgets, Lockscreen etc.). It is not so comfortable as the real Sense 3.5 or 4.0. The sense here is 4.0 light, which is similar to Sense 2.1
The One X, based on real Sense 4.0 Engine

Already been using it... I was using it since October, when the first Sense 3.0 ROMs were available
Sense is laggy when opening notifications, app drawer etc. Not like 4.0
Sent from my Desire S using xda premium
Not sire what you guys mean with laggy... Im come from desire.. and for sure...i know what lags are.. on desire also aosp roms have lags.. and now i have a phone with soo much speed.. no lockscreen lags.. even if a call comes.. i can push the symbol really smooth into the ring.. no slide lags during slide between homescreens.. i always use much htc widgets... After i play some 3d gameloft game.. no lag... I dont need data2ext scripts.. as there is engouh internal mem.. even in gameing no lag.. eg : asphalt, nfs, and other...mmmhh.. but im on stock rom @the moment 1. 05
Anyway.. also would like to see a sense 4 rom... Will look if i get some time free.. hope some other want work on that too.. maybe we can use the xe version.. and combine with kernel and hw drivers from sense 3. 6 (which allready work on our phones)...was a idea...
Also we can do some kernel optimations.. @the moment only for gb... So it would be nice again if we get official ics and also get the kernel as source...
Sent from my HTC Sensation XL with Beats Audio X315e using XDA
Well ics kernel source for xl should be out soon as official ics dropping soon. These so called lags for me are non existent and maybe some are expecting too much. Rosie was and will always be a memory hog and any widget can cause maybe a slight delay in transition. No roise is ever smooth no matter what is done to it.

with kind regards
just downloaded...hope we get the official update soon...if so...one of all devs here should make a development thread...so we can speak together instead of each individually...so we can make ics sense 4 to work...there are also roms for desire hd out...but with things not working...we are in a better situation...we get a ics update...so we have original drivers...etc...so we should have a better start....
good to have custom recoverys...so we can do a nand backup...go back every time back to daily driver in testing

Great idea ....
I never really got into Sense, as I quickly rooted my phone and went with a CM type of ROM - and now using BCM9 3.3.1
However, my wife like Sense on her Desire ... so I am keen to see v4, as this seems to have been stripped back a bit from the bloated GB version.
I originally chipped in towards Shaky's Desire so that he can get on with Dev'ing for it.
Hopefully it comes soon.

Your choice, everyones got the right of having opinion... I personally love miui and sense roms although they have always been a little laggy for me later on [gb ics both].... cm7, oxygen etc have been super fast, but they lack the special elegance, beauty, whatever you call it....sense n miui, they LOOK good.... sense has the elegance, miui too.....cm7 has millions feature tweaks themes, but always keeps missing something.. oxygen is too barebones, and I hate the stock apps on it, almost always replaced with apps from store....

Anyone know - informed guess or not - weather, with the inclusion of Sense framework this will mean 720p video recording will be possible/ported with this rom? If so, perfect!
what???
@bingley
no one KNOWS that....
you get what you get.... i doubt whether devs will put that much effort into stuff like 720p recording, or 2way call-rec**8 watever that is, etc etc....... Even if they make a fully functional port will be more then enough for most of us..... i doubt usb tether will be not there and vid cam might give trouble just like ics stock.. otherwise the same functions wud be possible....
I don't know about the general opinion, but for me 2 way call record is a dealbreaker.

Yes, I'm aware of that. I provided the reason for me not even considering ics, not to mention tons of bugs and lag.
There recently were some Chinese Desires released with specs similar to our desire what proved our desire can run ICS Sense 4 romantic smoothly. Sense 4 nice. Would like to try it on my phone.

Once I tried ICS is hard to go back... unless I'm putting stability above everything else, which I am.
But I'm patiently waiting till ICS sees stability and smoothness, then I might reconsider it
And I believe it can be such a smooth experience and fast, not much diference from GB roms, after all, desire has a pretty good specs.
I think I heard people say Sense 4 is less mem hungry than sense 3.6 anyway
Hi,
today I got the idea of changing my current ROM to one that is 100% stable, runs very smooth and has a good battery life/low resource use.
I was thinking of a modified Froyo rom like Starburst. ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=916417 )
I'm not interested in any extra functionality besides phone-music player. I just need it to do those two things perfectly and to never choke, freeze. (for example my current ROM has frequent freezes of the music app during playback).
What do you think?
Thanks for your time

I think I found CM7 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=957344) and I know MildWild and I am using it now. I would like to change it. Overall it's smooth but the music player glitches are getting to me, since I use that several times a day.
CM7 seems incomplete by the looks of some comments. I would like something final.
That being said, thank you for suggesting those two.
You wont find anything more complete than CM7, lol.
