Gonna get one probably by the end of next month? I've been trying to search for ROM's but I'm not exactly great at it what ROM's would you guys recommend? P.S. looking for a really smooth ROM. and not Sense if possible
If u not a Sense fan, i recommend this one from LC.

And if you like the SENSE as everybody does use this one it's amazing ! :

if you fancy ICS, pay attention to the 'not working' lists and any fixes.
Otherwise, BlackIce or Energy™ ROMs might be more suitable alternatives.
You can Install ARHD (Android Revolution HD) With or Without Sense.
ARHD is very good stable and smooth, ARHD 6.3.2 is very stable where as 7.0.2 is newly ported from XL.

I'll back binYaqoob on this....ARHD is a very good rom...I've been using arhd 7.0.2 for 2 weeks now working like a charme!!!
You will get many opinions, I use RCMIX3D v4.0 or Runny Droid v5.0

Top roms
I've only been flashing for few months and have been trying all latest releases but overlooked Cyanogen 7.1 coz it's 6 months old. But flashed it last week and wish I'd done it months ago. It looks great, is completely stable, smooth and fast and is customizable to an incredibly fine level. Must also give respects to LordClockan's ICS which looks fantastic and is getting better all the time, and ARHD for their great, stable, sense Rom's.
Can't wait for official DHD ICS leak to bring us full features and hopefully Cyanogenmod 9 shortly after.
For non sense roms...black ice or absolution!
For sense...well rcmix 4.0 in my opinion...my opinion mind lol is the most complete but many have gone past it now as development stopped on rcmix..look at smartdroid..runnydroid..erebus for clean sense
The list goes on...
Bear in mind ics is still in development if you love your camera keep it on your back up amd just update on ics updates...its not just lords..twisted has got a more cyanogen feel to it.and there's acension which is also top quality

Hi there everyone!
I'm just after a little bit of help here.
I've had my Desire Z for a over a year now. I did run stock but with the hassle of the "home" key delay (it was terrible!) I rooted the phone and went with a version of MIUI (can't remember which now).
I love MIUI - except its music player downloaded strange albums, is there any way to fix this? (Jamon the power of love! lol)
Anyways - I recently tried a Sense 3 rom and it's awful. Laggy, slow, and a pain to use.
I really really want a stable, easy to use, smooth (doesn't have to be fassst!) just all-round-good ROM to use as my daily driver.
I'm throwing this one out to you - Which ROM can I try?
MIUI - do I just do the MIUI.us with bulletproof add-on?
CM7.1? I've never used this - which CM version is the best DD?
Sense UI - Any out there without home button lag?
I get the feeling the Desire Z is slowly becoming a "thing of the past" but I want to squeeze life out if it! I still got another year on my current contract! lol.
Thanks so much in advance for any tips, advice, etc.
For me, CM7 is easily the fastest. Use ILWT, its the fastest cm7 ROM I've tried, and loads of customisations
Sent from my Desire Z using XDA
Agree with Taz. ILWT is the best of both worlds, as it's feature-rich and is perhaps the fastest ROM around. If you decide to go with MIUI you might want to give Strawmetal.Mi a try.
CoSign, CM7 is the most stable 7.2 is the most recent version.
Agree with everyone. Been using ILWT for awhile and just recently changed to Andromadus beta3.

Virtuous G-Lite 2.0.1 is my favorite. It is fast; doesn't drain battery or consume every available RAM. I am using the ROM with stock launcher (default is LauncherPro) and I must I am glad I did.
Sent from my Desire Z flashed Virtuous G-Lite ROM 2.0.1
Thanks everyone for your most excellent replies!
I've flashed the ILWT Cm7 rom on my Desire Z and it's been great so far, really fast with no lag. I loved the design of MIUI and Sense/Sense 3 but I think I prefer something that is usable over fancy graphics which make the phone lag.
Can I customise the status bar? I would like to change it if possible, no problem if not.
Also, any other tweaks or tips most welcome. I want to get another 12 months out of this baby!

Just a FYI. That's not CM9 beta, it's a CM9 kang, just like Andromadus Audacity is. They're both based on CM9. CM9 is still in pre-release and may never be released officially for the Vision.
Cm7 can't go wrong.

That was a bit of a bump. I think the OP has already made his choice,
but Elite is indeed a very fast and stable rom.
I realize that the thread is month old now, so OP has probably already selected a rom, but in case someone else reads this thread looking for an answer to the same question...
I'm been using the Mimicry 1.1.0 ICS rom for the past week. I've tried out all of the ICS roms for the G2/Desire Z so far and Mimicry is the first that I would recommend as a daily driver. It is running quite fast and most of the bugs and graphical glitches of other ICS roms have been worked out.
CyanogenMod 9.0.0-RC0 BETA 14 - rockzzzz
preety fast, very good battery consumption, sexy
)Hi there!
Thanks for more rom suggestions!
Also, thanks to all those who suggested roms to use, I've read the thread every time it's been updated.
Just for everyone's info, I ended up installing CM7 ILWT - it's been excellent. Fast, stable, things work - it ticks all the boxes, really, and it means I can squeeze a few more months out of my phone! Actually, it's made me rethink upgrading next year.
It's been fine for my needs and I'm no longer pulling out my hair in frustration; there's no lag, no issues with functionality, and everything is in English (rather than Chinese, like MIUI's calendar lol - also the stock player doesn't make all my album covers turn to "Jamon - The Power Of Love" too!)
I may do a nandroid backup and try some of the other suggestions. I am a little bit reluctant to try any ICS roms, I've read posts describing things as being smooth but lots of things not working properly... I may give them a try anyway and see, but I am wary. One persons buttery smooth is another persons laggingly slow. I'd prefer to do away with flashy stuff for a phone that.. um.. "just works", and fast.
Thanks.
If you prefer Gingerbread, as I previously mentioned, I would recommend G-Lite 2.0.1 but for an ICS ROM Andromadus Audacity is the only choice you can take.
I installed too many ROMS these are the one that you can use with performance.

Hey there!
I did a nandroid of CM7 ILWT, wiped and installed Mimicry 1.1.1

Hi, please don't shout at me, I've tried a search but Tapatalk is utter useless!
I'm looking for a new rom, this time one without sense. Which kind is the fastest/most stable?
I'm not asking for a rom itself, but more of the type of rom, cm/aokp/aosp etc (are those abbreviations right?)
Thanks

I hate sense.
Been using BlackIce for months and find it quite good.
ICS roms not good for me, for now.
Try BlackIce. It's one of the best.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1298283
Or Cyanogenmod 7.2
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable&device=ace
Both are AOSP (Android Open Source Project) roms. No sense, no flashy visual effects, just speed. Perfect.
I agree with joooe. BlackIce is the best and most stable. I would never use sense.
Absolution in the inspire thread is wicked good too.
Sent from a dream.
To be honest I like sense because it's 'pretty', but started to notice bits and pieces lag.
The two rooms mentioned above, are they on ics? Camera issues?
Sorry for the questions, I'll be back on pc later
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk 2
BlackIce and Absolution are not ICS, which means camera works fine and they are both very stable.
With BlackICe I have 400 mb free mem at booting. Sense takes like 300 mb! No wonder it lags.

you can try IceColdSandwich - 8.4 - AOKP which is quite stable for daily use for ICS rom...
if you want to try on JB, you can try this Jellytime which is still in beta and testing...

I currently use Ice Cold Sandwich as well and its great. You might want to also try Existz' AOSP in the Inspire forum. If you want a Sense Roms, then Sabsa Prime and Blackout are pretty good.
I am using jelly time r10.1. I have absolutely no issues with it. It is great. I set my DPI to 160, and it fits the phone excellent.

Best Sense ICS ROM
Sabsa Prime v6.5
Best NON Sense ICS ROM
IceColdSandwich - 8.7 - AOKP
I would say best sence rom is blackout.in my opinion
Sent from my Desire HD using xda app-developers app
Best sense rom: Blackout.
Best non sense rom: Ice Cold Sandwich.
Very stable both of them.

I am also finding rom for daily use.
I tried about 20 roms last weekend to find a really stable and all balanced one.
If a rom has many cool feature like newest sense4 but runs laggy. => I won't choose.
If a rom runs super fast and smooth but hotspot not working. => won't choose either.
Here's what I tasted in those 20 roms:
For Jelly Bean:
JellyTime, CodefireX, Unofficial-CM are quite similar. They are all based on CM10.
CodefireX has more tweak function in settings.
But all these rom I got sensor issue.
Accelerometer, magnetic field, orientation sensors are not working for me. (But for some others working great)
So JB rom is still far from stable for me.
For ICS with Sense:
If you want all function working, you can try Nik Project X v4.1. But I feel all sense 4 roms laggy.
If you like a smoother one, you can try Sabsa Bliss v2.0. It's sense 3.6 from Incredible S and suits for DHD, The only bad is wifi hotspot not working.
I think we can have a perfect ICS rom with sense 3.6 in the near future, just looking forward to it
For ICS without sense (AOSP)
IceColdSandwich v8.7 is the best. It's fast, light weight and many tweak settings from AOKP.
If you are not a pefectionism like me...You can choose it.
But I use camera very often. And the Camera in Sense always have better quality than in AOSP.
HTC must do image enhancement in its camera app.
......so...After a long trip to JB and ICS, I go back to GB with sense 3.5 finally......
I choose Runny Xtreme Surprise by XxXPachaXxX.
It's fast enough, many features beyond stock rom, only tiny bugs and good camera
The only bad maybe is it's a GB rom lol...
At last, I still wish HTC will release an official ICS RUU to DHD. Or, at least, an offical kernel source.
Also sabsa blish is very stable but I can't find tweaks for this from.

IMHO and my experience, every ROM is like that, even stock. Android is like Windows in that regard, more sw you install, slower it gets.... I didn't come to the conclusion if it's because of the widgets or just because of number of installed programs...
Now I need to figure out if I like sense or not I guess. thus far Jelly Bean has been my favorite on my play despite the fact that like half the stuff doesn't work >.< So we'll see...
Thx for all the places to start.

viper DHD 2.0.0
viper DHD 2.0.0 is the best rom for me.
Sense roms are battery juice hogs compared to AOKP/CM/AOSP/MIUI roms... The phone experience will not really be enjoyable.
At least tell your customer about your insights for Sense ROMs and the latter.
For a user lazy enough to "want" the ROM, maybe the best option is some Sense "themed" AOSP/MUI.
AW: selling my DHD which rom to flash?
Sabsa Prime is (just for me) the best current available Rom. Tested ViperHD and it was less performant than sabsa. Even Sabsa gives the best Out-Of-The-Box - Experience.
