You have there 2 versions' i use for stock hboot. realy fast and stable
I have doubts about the stability of aio runnymede. I constantly had camera freeze resulted in boot loops. I found that RSK was far more stable

do u try runny rom?
what's the difference between 2.1 and 3.5?
I've tried Runnymede AIO 6.1.1, Runny 5.5 and RSK 7.1
To me AIO seems most stable
i faced Exchange email issue with both RSK n Runny
But all of them having issue with USB tethering, it'll keep poping up the usb connection type options and never connect my pc to the internet
so now i'm reverting back to Alex-V 1.8 INT2SD
RunnyMede AIO here as well. Stable and fast even with stock hboot.
Battery life isn't too bad on AIO, I get a day of moderate use out of it. I did need to recalibrate the battery (i.e. charge to 100% and reset battery stats), this was probably because I flashed the ROM when the phone was 40% charged.
I was using an ICS ROM last week (sandvolds), it ran surprisingly well but I had issues with multi-touch (drag zoom) and a couple of other smaller issues (slow GPS lock, occasional lock ups). Might take another look at ICS on desire in a few months.

Hi guys,
I need to know which DHD rom will be the fastest and most reliable for my desire, at the moment I'm using ownhere's desire HD rom but it is a bit laggy and chews battery.
Thanks in advance
I'm stuck on Cool Sense HD v7 (link see my sig - v7 is released as beta later in the thread). It's as fast as any stock froyo and works absolutely stable for me. Will never go back to sense1...
InsertCoin 1.9.1 is damn fast, never had lags, battery life is around 24-36hrs on medium usage.
I'm using iNsertCoin 1.8h and it's very good.
I'm using RCMixHD v3.0 a2sd+.
This one is very fast and stable.
I've already used this for over one week and no any problem!

Hi All
I am using Runnymede AllinOne v2.1 Custom ROM on my HTC Desire. Previously I was using AcesMod007 v31 ROM and I was quite happy with the battery life. But, I am experiencing low battery life in this ROM (Runnymede AllinOne v2.1).
Q1. Does battery life depend on the ROM or any other thing (such as Kernel)?
Q2. I don't use Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS. My screen brightness is always 40%. Sometimes Mobile Network is turned on. Without suggesting usage optimization, could you please suggest me a way of improving battery life on my current ROM?
Device detail-
HTC Desire
SW- Desire Runny 5.0
Android 2.3.5
Sense 3.5
Sync off (Manual Sync)
Kernel version- 2.6.35.14-gingercakes-0.8e
Baseband version- 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23
I will be grateful if you please help me with the issue.
Thanks-

You CANNOT use AOSP kernels. Runnymede is a Sense ROM so you must find sense Kernels.
Upps, my bad, heh.
Well, RunnyMede AIO has been poor on battery life from the start. People have reported slightly better battery life when using snq's kernels. However, snq's kernels currently have a bug that causes it to not have USB mode.

I believe the internet pass through is a Rom related bug although some people are able to use it while others can't, but you can try changing kernels to see if it works. Snq apparently has a USB_fix flashable zip that might solve the USB issue but there are mixed results from people using it.

Well, I wasn't trying to criticize the Rom. It IS a great Rom, one of the best Sense 3.x Rom I've seen. I'm just suspecting that the battery life has got to do with the kernel as I did mentioned the fact that people are getting better battery life with snq then GC.

Hi there,
Since last December, I'm using last version of Oxygen, but during this time I have an issue with camera. Every time I'm started the camera an error "SDcard is unmounted" occurs. I had to unmount, mount again my sdcard and really fast switch to camera application, sometimes two or free times in order to take a photo.
Now I'm trying to find stable ROM for daily use, but I see that developers gone from desire device, only few ICS ROMS, and as I red there isn't enough stable ROM for daily use.
What do you recommend? It could be JB, ICS, GB, the first goal it have to be stable without any major issues and without Sense.
Is way to have a stable rom? I don't want to come back to stock.
Im using EUROSKANK CM 7 rom, no problems, all is working. For me this is best stable rom.

Anyway since you are on the lookout for a new rom then you can try the suggestions the the commenters above.

Thanks everyone for answers,
I'll reading about ROMs mentioned in your answers, for now Nick's Phone looks the best.
About my issue, I reinstalled Oxygen in January, with _total_ wipe: STOCK -> ROOT -> S-OFF -> Oxygen. Now I'll try to check my SDcard (it is 4Gb ADATA class 6, and is old like a phone) I will try to dd if=/dev/zero on this card, maybe this is card issue not rom.

Well I tried all the ICS and JB ROMs but trust me, they are not for daily use. Random reboots, phone freezing and many other little niggles are a pain.
Then I tried the eye candy Sense 3.5 ones. Though everything works in them stability is an issue. Freezing, bsod etc are few issues I faced.

I heard about it too. Only issue I found was that the development on it was stopped and so was apprehensive of the support.
Also the OP of the ROM says few users are facing freezing issues while an incoming call. I had this issue earlier too on the RSK teams ROM.
Anyway will give it a shot over the weekend.

I've had good experiences with Runny Rom too. I've used Runnymede AIO for a long time and also had those freezing issues you mention, but it's not only caused by the ROM itself directly. Most likely it's caused by the SD card. I've used 2 different 16GB class 6 cards (Samsung and Sandisk) and they both caused problems. I'm using a class 4 32gb sandisk now I didn't have any single freeze yet.
But, like said before, those sense 3.5 ROMs are quite heavy, probably the most heavy for your SD card. For stable and lagfree sense I wouldn't advise them. It might work, but can also cause a lot of problems.
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

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 !

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.

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

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.
