Hey there,
I've been using MILDWILD CM7 (3.9 right now) for several months and i am very happy with its smoothness and stability. Nevertheless I'm interested in trying out one of the "true" ICS roms. Is there anyone who has experiences regarding smothness and stability. Are Sandvold's and dk_zero_cool ICS roms as good as MW (despite the camera errors)?
Furthermore I'd like to ask whats the difference between those real ICS roms?
Does sandvolds rom also deliver additional settings as the cm9 options in BCM ICS?
what about stability and smoothness?
Reading the last 5 to 10 pages of those rom thread would give you an idea.

The answers to your questions are already out there. Honestly, I'd rather be productive doing something else that will benefit me than to give you a full rundown of things that you can go figure out yourself anyway. I don't care if you find my answer useless but given the fact that this thread hasn't been productive in getting any other answers speaks for itself.
So yeah go ahead and call me a fool.

Um, maybe because you're incapable of finding the right information which is already written, thus being incapable of using forums as a viable source of information?

Hello guys, i use this MIUI XJ rom, but seems it has a lot of crashes in applications & launcher it's very beautiful but it's pain in the ass that crashes me a lot of times i was wondering for some answer of Xperts that used or tested ROMS for HTC Desire!
Thanks in advance!
This question seems to be posted at least once daily. Use the search button!!!

thanks for your professional answer, about posting once daily i always RTFM before i post and you can use the "SEARCH" also and u will find millions of posts about the ROMS or stuff like that
take care
The point being that I could tell you several ROM's I've used and even my current favourite but it's all subjective. What works for me may not work for you and similarly may not work for others. Read some of these daily posted queries and try to get some ideas for yourself and try them out. There is no one-size cap fits all on this matter as we all use our phones in different ways and have different needs.
The alternative is that we may aswell just make a list of every available ROM there is and then you can pick from that. Bear in mind however that most people on finding a good ROM with no issues won't return to post about it so the ROM that's least recommended may actually be the best one.
There is no 'best' ROM, there is only a best ROM that works for you and your needs. Sorry.
I have been using insertcoin ya its really nice haven't have to turn off my phone for a month!

Best ROM you say?
I don't know if I'm the only one on topic, but anyways.
My favourite ROM for HTC Desire is MIUI, works great, great UI, nice battery life and everything is very intuitive.
Oh and something I love: Settings are divided in 3 tabs making everything so much easier to browse and modify.
Wow a new question ! :O
Such thing never been asked before
Lol!!!

CyanogenMod for me. Rock solid, loads of nice little tweaks and runs like a dream on my Desire.
Damn XDA getting hung...duplicate posts

What a question ?
Hello all, lets discuss your feelings, emotions, confusions:what:, predictions, fears, jubilation etc etc about the upcoming release of ics sense 4 for desire HERE, in THIS thread, and leave the dev threads for logcats, tweak scripts and bug fixes..... desire has a few devs left, try to keep them here.....
Regards
Fellow desire user.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA
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.

Deal. If this means this is the last of useless Sense 4/ics thread, fine by me.
But you violate the deal, I guess we normal who don't want our phones be partially stable have the right to pull the big guns out? Or keep them that way.

Its actually awesome to have ics on our old desires...am satisfied with that...but to have ics sense...I can't imagine how superb it will be...great work devs..
Personally...not a fan of ICS but thats me. CM or AN-Droid next me thinks... Decisions decisions

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
I'm looking to upgrade my dads phone. He has a custom GB ROM I already put on there months ago but since sprint finally rolling out ICS I was wondering what was best...cm9? F18 leak? He just wants ROM that is stable and has hacked hotspot.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Well if he want a stable rom with Hotspot hack i recommend getting Phantom Blazer 4.1 Rom. But if he wants ICS roms CM9 will do.
I'm running M'ICS v 1.1. stable, good battery life and has sprint hotspot.
Let's be honest here, there are probably a dozen of these threads out here and I am quite sure a few quite recently. You could get a million different answers since it all really depends on the user themselves. There is so much that goes into deciding whats best for you I never get asking others. I mean opinions are great but personal experience is the best.
If you are just going to do if for every day use then flash the stock FF18, throw a recovery on it and flash the hotspot hack in themes and apps voila! you're done!
Sorry was not trying to flame I understand what you are asking just don't think a dozen people giving you different answers helps you. All the roms in development are great but all come with a little kwirk here or there.

Stability is one aspect, battery life is another. Best suggestion is to read through the threads of the roms that interest you and what style you like and test the battery life on it.
I personally like Wicked 1.5 and have 3 1/2 to 4 hrs on screen time. But that may not be the case for you. Based on what you run, how you run...
Browse away and give 'em a try but take head to flashing responsibly and read, read, read so you don't brick your phone.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Thanks. Yeah, I've been reading about bricking potential...it's one of the reasons I haven't updated yet.
I've tried to read through some threads of ROMs that people have said they liked, but with hundreds of pages in each (saying back to the ROM's release), it's difficult to take it all in...that's why I asked here (and tried not to start another new thread about it ;-))

I completely get it. It is alot to absorb.
There are 2 posts that I know of which are polling people about the roms in use but its all a matter of taste.
Besides the fact that some may be partial to a particular team, dev, etc.
Its just a hard question to answer.
Best solution is to try if you're willing. But there are safe kernals now and great people to give you advise if you get stuck.

Hey.. I've lurked around the site for a few months now and feel I have a decent grasp on flashing Roms. I'm currently running CM 7.2, but was curious if there are any ICS Roms here that are as stable?
What do the masses here recommend? I've briefly ran LC's ICS Rom, but had a couple issues with rebooting while writing emails so I went back to CM 7.

Much like yourself I'd been using BackIce for a few months and loved it;
but now I've changed to aospX and it is a worthy replacement.
I tried IceCold and it wasn't for me, just not fluid or light enough.
Definately try aospX. It's stable and mature being so close to aosp.
