Favorite Sense 3.5 ROM for dinc 2 discussion

I though I would start a thread to get peoples options on there favorite sense 3.5 Rom.
I think the most common Sense 3.5 ROMs are Magnolia, Incredible 2 HD, and Runnydroid. I will add more if you use somthing else as your daily driver.
Edit: Virtuous affinity,Mikrunny
My favorite Sense 3.5 ROM is incredible 2 HD. It has a lot of added tweaks and is fully functional.
So what's your favorite Sense 3.5

Virtuous affinity although I haven't tried the new build. I'm just not a sense kinda guy.

For sense 3. 5, without a doubt incredible 2 hd is the smoothest Rom. Looks awesome with ICS theme
"the relentless pursuit of the perfect ROM "

I withdraw my previous statement nitsuj's bullet rom is sick

Lol I actually got to help on that theme. I helped ready and junk long before it got released.
I'm hooked on mikrunny right now. Super smooth, stock kernel, stock speeds, stock theme, using the battery bar to name it minimal up top, and loving it.

It does indeed. I don't use it, but it does have it.

I've been running the Mikrunny ROM for a couple weeks now. I have no complaints at all.

Personally, I find all Sense 3.5 ROMs to be somewhat slow and laggy. For that reason I only run Sense 3.0 and lower and AOSP ROMs. In my experience they are far smoother than Sense 3.5. My personal recommendations are TSM Trinity and Bullet.

Turn off the 3d features in the rosie tweaks. It flies after that. Much faster than 3.0 ever was

Bullet 1.4 by the the best Rom I've tried. Kills ICS. Wouldn't go back ICS even if my phone would let me. LOL. Still no luck on black screen. But this Rom Bullet 1.4 is great its sense 3.0 but I like it better than mikrunny. And I'm a huge fan of newt but he's pretty much gave up incredible 2.

I'll give mikrunny a try soon
I don't like 3.0 that much becuase it dosnt have the alternate 1*4 weather and clock widget. It's funny though, sense 3.0 was made for dual core phones, and 3.5 was made for single core phones. To think 3.0 would run better

You guys did a great job with the theme, although the phone dialer is not very intuitive. I swapped htc dialer with the inverted theme one.

Yeah best way to describe it. I can't run ICS along with what appears to be several others. Nobody can figure it out either. Ive ran all ICS Roms up untill about 2 weeks ago. Tried ICS again. Everytime I turn my screen off goes black and when I try to turn screen back on only the bottom lights come up also Rom runs horrible extremely lagged, never had this problem in the past. Wiped everything even sd card. Only thing I haven't tried is rerooting. May be only hope. Wish I could fix it. Drives me crazy. Oh by the way can run cyanogenmod 7 just fine. Along with all other Roms. Weird.

Not to smash your hopes, but I unrooted, s-off and factory stock (rom and recovery) and it didn't help. As I mentioned before, I'm not sure it is necessary ICS related as this started happing earlier this past summer with a paticular MIUI build. Maybe its the way these ICS roms install.

Cutting The Umbilical Cord From Gingerbread

Well, with the latest and greatest roms from some very talented and dedicated devs for the Dinc 2, I officially see no reason to reason to use CM7 or MIUI Gingerbread anymore. I was running both of these earlier in the week and in short order found my way back to ICS roms in very short order.
I can't wait till source fixes the few things that are left to fix, but I can live with what I have for now.
Thanks to the Dinc 2 Devs out there!!!

On gingerbread miui... I like it so much I don't see the point to switching. Everything is exactly how I want it... Plus not sure what is so much better about ics

I hear a lot of good things about the ics Roms but I'm still not ready for ics. There are still to many bugs that I don't want to have to deal with. When HTC releases some source or we get a good leak ill jump on board.

I went back to miui gb, after a day of taking easter pix of the kids inside and outside of the house in the bright sun, the auto brightness not working is a killer.

I can't wait for Opensense4 to be as functional as AOKP and CM9. I use my camera on a daily basis, so I haven't made the transition yet to an ICS ROM as my DD (from SRZeus). I am actually about to give AOKP build 31 a go for a few days. I say if you like what you have, why change? But it is nice to see all the hard work being put into ROMs for a phone that doesn't have all the leaks yet.

So, ICS is incredibly stable on our devices now. Camera flash on AOSP is the only issue that I can think of. UKB is a fantastic sense 4 ROM that has a useable flash. Have we reached the "umbilical separation point" that the OP suggests?

Has anyone considered making a GB ROM that worked and looked exactly like vanilla ICS. You know, just to give us a full functional ICS ROM without the drivers? The only thing you couldn't do was use ICS apps and launchers.

[Q] Anything Like Abduction ICS ROM For Dinc2?

Hi all,
After 2 years with the my beloved DINC (actually my 4th replacement) I am now getting a DINC2 from Asurion. I hadn't flashed anything since last year when I moved from CM7 to MIUI until a few weeks ago when I flashed to Abduction ICS. I love that ROM! It is well laid out, good looking, andruns great. It was like getting a new phone for me. Unfortunately my audio jacked borked so bye bye dinc.
I have looked around a bit in development here. I saw the sticky about not flashing the Chinese RUUs and not downgrading the bootloader. Can anyone suggest a ROM I might like? I'm hoping just to find a good one, get everything configured and not mess around flashing for awhile.
Thanks

For ICS roms, CM9 and AOKP are the two big ones. AOKP has more options and customization, but aeroevan's cm9 is modded specifically for our phone so it runs smoother. If you do use aokp, use aero's kernel with it. Personally, I switch between the two as new features come out.
If you're looking for a sense rom, nitsuj's TSM UltimateKangBang is very nice, I personally can't stand sense but I did flash that for a day and it was pretty smooth.

Thanks Proto that is very helpful. I'll probably try both CM9 and AOKP before I start configuring everything for myself. I use third party launchers, Apex right now, sense makes no sense anyway.

I personally prefer cm9. Aero released a version with some linaro tweaks that make the from even faster.

well i have the later firmware that comes with replacements from Vz. It appears I can't root unless I downgrade the bootloader and that seems to cause other e . Apparently this is only a problem with sense roms but I am going to wait for the expected ICS OTA this summer. What I want most is tethering and the ability to make Titanium and Nandroid backups. I have tethering so I can wait.
Thanks

The MIUI is really cool right now. From before, the rom had some graphical glitches whenever i downloaded files from my school website. Its partially fixed. Overall, i dig it. I cant wait until all the bugs are fixed.

Best ICS ROM?

Opinions on ICS for the DINC anyone?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1719879

I use AOKP Build 40. It has the most features but it is slightly unstable.

I haven't messed around with it on my Inc lately. But I did note that a lot of rims didn't manage to support camcorder. Considering the good camera. I dislike xD

I'd also love a recommendation on a good ICS rom.

Any of the CM9 variants, you can use a third party camcorder if you need it. AOKP has a few more features, but they're not as well implemented imo and it's randomly unstable.

CM9 by drk.hd with Cobalt theme.

AOKP is badass but the battery was so bad I couldn't use it long term. I'm trying drk.hd CM9 right now for a hopefully better battery life.

Evervolv's ics ROM works great for me. Camera works, never had a random reboot, and very smooth.

My vote goes to Linaro CM9 or the other CM9 by hd.drk (although I had some battery issues with it, my buddy has not). Both are snappy and 99% problem free.

Which (if any) 3rd party camcorder apps are any of you using?
I know it's a phone, not a camera, etc etc etc, but with a toddler running around the house there is almost always chance for video gold and the phone is always nearby.
Thanks.

Is evervolv a miui rom, if not is there any screen caps from it or where to get the rom

Running evervolv 2.2.1a3 now and have just switched from MIUI v4.
You cant go wrong with either rom. I will say evervolv is running much smother for me than miui did. Video works better too. But you can beat the theming with miui. Though I hear that is broken on the latest port.

most stable ROM?

I need to update my wife's DInc 2 and was wondering if anyone has suggestions on a stable ROM. I don't have time to try a bunch out for her and am not familiar with the phone. she's not techy, so it needs to work, but stock is a little boring/laggy for her.
the main things she needs to work are camera (both), tether, and pretty decent battery life.
thanks in advance for any suggestions!

If you want stable but don't like stock, I would suggest cm7 (mrom) or the old gingerbread miui (though this may be harder to find unless someone still has it, try rom manager). Ics and jellybean can be iffy since we never got an official release and a proper kernel.

Agree with this. Although I've only tried CM7 because I'm all about battery life and stability. MROM does that and more. The UI is clean and everything is zippy. It really gets the most out of this phone. Who needs ICS or Jellybean when you have a kickass rom like this?

I have run this rom with and without the scripts, I don't see much if any difference. You don't have to use those if you don't want to. And you don't need an app to overclock, it has that in settings. But you can use that to undervolt and change I/o's. As phonetool stated, this rom runs really well on this phone. Give it a shot.

I had been using DKStunna's Global 10.1 JB ROM build 3 as my DD for a few months and it was mostly stable. It would lag out once in a while I was managing apps, but it was pretty fast with the built-in Nova Launcher. I got tired of not having a working camcorder and since DKStunna broke his Vivow and ceased development I decided to switch to ChillyBean's ParanoidAndroid/PAC 2.19 ROM. So far it's been awesome! It has "inverted" GAPPS, Facebook, and some other core system apps, which I'm not a fan of, but it's supposedly something you can change. I have a working camcorder again (after a few tweaks), which is what I was looking for. It looks like ChillyBean broke his Vivow also so I don't know how much more development he'll be able to do, which is very sad. Anyway, I highly recommend the latest ParanoidAndroid.

You don't have to change anything for the inverted gapps. Just flash the normal ones instead. Then you never have the inverted ones to begin with.
