[Q] ice cold sandwich vs jellytime - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Running jellytime r14 at present and loving it,,,, would i gain more from ice cold sandwich ?

cant compare
kind of a stupid question, because the rom Ice Cold sandwich is finished (kind of) and jellytime isnt.
im pretty sure that jellytime will be better, when finished.

ok , thanks for your opinion.

Would you please explain more. I'm also trying to find a comparision between them.

IceCold is ICS, Android 4.0. JellyTime is JB, Android 4.1. So all the lovely JB things, like project butter and the minor UI fixes, are in JellyTime but not IceCold. However, since ICS has been around longer, IceCold is more stable and bug-free than JellyTime. IceCold is also AOKP based, while JellyTime is CM10 based, so IceCold has a couple more customizations (though JellyTime has incorporated several non-CM settings, like center clock).

Sense vs Senseless ICS ROMS

Im looking for a stock ICS ROM, where the user experience is as google intended but still makes the most of the HTC hardware.
This is my first android phone and im currently running CyanogenMod 9 - Endeavor Unleashed | 017, which I really like - minus the bugs...
How will a ROM like this compare to RENOVATE 2.1.0 | SUPER FAST, which is a sense ROM with a ICS style launcher over on.
Will it still have all the ICS style menus, contacts, animations?
Which will run faster and more stable?
cheers,
maybe the renovate is more stable because it's based on sense, but the experience of cm9 and aokp is more pure ics, and you have a lot of personalization and theme!
With a powerful device like the One X, a ROM's speed can be mostly a subjective feeling. As far as stability goes, I tend to lean towards Sense-based ROMs, at least until all the AOSP ROMs iron out their bugs. Another reason for favoring Sense-based ROMs is the retention of the Sense camera. Other cameras seem to have trouble with overexposure because of the f/2 aperture.
In summary, a Sense-based ROM that strips out most of Sense, leaving only whatever is required is a good bet, at least for now.

Try Slim ICS or Paranoid rom..both based on cm9 but with added features...both great if you ask me my friend..
Renovate is based still on sense framework and uses a few sense apps still...i do recommend that as well. New update will be coming soon so id wait for that if you want to try...for now as the poster above said i would go and try Renovate..i know the developer and nothing but good dedication from him

That depends on what you're looking for. If you want to keep the amazon UI then Modaco is the way to go. If you're wanting more of an AOSP feel then GedeROM, AOKP, or Jandycane are all great options. GedeROM is based off of CM9, I believe. AOKP is it's own animal but it is based off of Ice Cream Sandwich source I believe and Jandycane is based off of Jellybean Source. Modaco probably has the best battery life out of them all but obviously is pretty much standard amazon. It is deodexed and optimized and rooted though without the worry of OTA updates messing with your root permissions. The biggest selling point for AOKP in my opinion is customization options. You can even change the soft keys to something you are more comfortable with on AOKP. GedeROM is a very stable CM9 and also has plenty of customization options that come with cyanogenmod. Jandycane as I said is based on Jellybean and it is buttery as they come. Right now my kindle is running Jandycane 1.4, soon to be 1.5 when I find time to update it. Battery life is a little sorry though but I am sure in time it will improve as lithium comes up with more fixes.
Yeah, it does depend on what you want. These are the ROMs I recommend. I have used them all and they all will work fine.
Jellybean/CM10 ROMs: CM10 SGT7 ROM, Hashcode's ROM(AOSP)
ICS/CM9 ROMs: gedeROM, SGT7 ROM, Glazed ICS
CM7: Barebones CM7
I was using GedeROM ... very stable IceCreamSandwich rom.
I just switched to JandyCane .. its Jellybean. I'm not sure what's missing .. it's also nice.
Stick with gedeRom if this is your first forray into Kindle Android. Then when you're comfortable .. look around.

Rom reccomndations for stability

I'm giving my Droid Inc to my mom so she can play angry birds. Also so they cause use the gps.
This will be WIFI only.
I'm currently running redemptive revolution and would like to reflash it to something simpler.
I've been having some issues with rebooting lately and constantly get the "update available message".
I just want something simple that works for her so I don't get calls every day asking about why its not working.

Holy double thread!
Anyways, I thought stock had that random reboot at roughly 02. I put in my vote for CM7 for stability.

CM7 hands down. Stock is crap for a variety of reasons, mainly battery life, which more than doubles, in my experience, on CM7.
Wow Redemptive. Isnt that one of Lou's Froyo Roms. Thats freakin old school. I would go with CM7 for stability and momability. Update your cwm I think froyo was 3.0.7/.8
and WTF happened to CM8 was that ever developed or did the cyanogen team just decide to skip 8.
6,7,uuuuh,9,10

Yes, I do believe Redemptive is an Inc/Evo Froyo hybrid by Lou.
Slightly off topic, but CM follows the numbering scheme with Android releases. Such that:
CM6 = Android 2.2.x Froyo
CM7 = Android 2.3.x Gingerbread
CM8 would = Android 3.x Honeycomb
CM9 = Android 4.0.x Ice Cream Sandwich
CM10 = Android 4.1.x Jelly Bean
The only problem is Honeycomb source was never released (or wasn't released in a timely enough fashion; don't know, don't care). And that's the story of the missing CM version.

CM7 - (the first rom I ever flashed)
I vote for CM7 as well. I'd been using that ROM for months with no problems.
Definitely the latest cm 7. That's what I was using before I upgraded and it worked great
CM7.2

Best ROM threads are not encouraged on XDA as it's such a subjective topic, ask 10 people, get 10 different answers, figuratively speaking. I'm closing this thread but there is already an existing one open HERE which is the only one that will remain open as it's been there a while.
Thanks

Also, getting to 10 posts just to say thanks in a Development is not allowed. All talk in the Development section, should be about development, debugging, scripts,...
If you want to say Thanks, there is a button for that.
And since Albinoman quoted your post, which you blantantly state, "The real honor though should be in the 5 hours I've spent making 10 decent posts so I could properly express my regards: Fantastic build.", I am deleting that post. So now you are back to 10.

[Q] Slow recent apps on Ice Cold Sandwich

Hi guys,
I have a problem for which i can't seem to find a solution through search. I'm on the latest Ice Cold Sandwich and the recent apps function (holding home button) gets really slow after a while. It seems to me that the function holds to many apps in memory causing it to be slow. I tried nova launcher which made it a little faster but not quite solved the problem.
Does anyone know a way to adjust the number of apps this function holds in memory?
Thanks
Not that I know of. And changing the launcher won't help since recent apps list is not related to it. I was a longtime IceColdSandwich user till Lord Clockan stopped active development for it. It's gotten buggy over time and especially because he was blind developing it without a phone to test on. After some use the ROM UI becomes slow overall. For ICS, I'd recommend aospX. It's the most stable ICS ROM. However it's pure AOSP and won't have AOKP/CM features like IceColdSandwich except the quick toggles in the notification bar. I'd also recommend you they the codefireX JellyBean nightlies. They are CM10 with some AOKP features and are more stable than IceColdSandwich in my experience. There a also JellyTime which is CM10 only. Since these are JellyBean ROMs, they are by default faster than ICS throughout. Everything works including 720p video recording and there are no major bugs that hamper usability.
Of course I'm only talking about AOSP ROMs. There are many stable Sense ICS ROMs if you like Sense.

As sashank said, you're not the only one facing slowing down issues with IceColdSandwich. It seems a lot of users are experiencing slow downs in the overall UI after a couple of days using the ROM.
I'm a fan of Sense ROMs, and there are a couple very stable ones around.
Thanks guys,
Might be time to switch to a jellybean ROM then....

Happy flashing
Let us know how it goes for you..
Yeah, I am in the same boat. IceCold Sandwich while formally rock steady, now is just laggy. I flashed over to Jellytime, but my wifi was so unstable at home that I have axed that one as well. I had Jellytime around B7 and had no issues with wifi. R12 & R13 are completely unusable for me. Oh well, time for something else.

Hello

Hey,
I've been reading xda for quite a while now and I thought I would register and say hey. Then once I have done 10 posts, start contributing.
I have a 2 year old HTC desire, rooted, stock HBOOT, S-off.
I originally rooted so that I could save apps to the SD card (fed up of not enough space)
however I finally plucked up the courage to flash a new rom and I haven't looked back!
Roms tried so far:
Sandvold 0.18.2.1 (and a few earlier revisions)
Runny Rom 7.0.2
MIUI (short lived - missed the app drawer)
JB Paranoid Hybrid UI
HTC Desire AOKP Milestone 6
Unofficial AOKP Jelly Bean v1.4 - my personal favorite so far although a few niggles which mean I can't use it as my everyday rom. (niggles I would like to help out with, when I have my 10 posts)
Current:
Insert coin rom A2SD+ stable v1.14 - purely because of the stability and lack of niggles.
I'm stuck with my Desire until my contract renewal (May 2013). and then I will be upgrading (possibly a Nexus, maybe something else). Until then I will be milking my desire for all its worth with new roms just to keep my interest in it.
I really like what you guys are doing here and the developers are incredible. I would like to help where I can, but being a noob and highly de-motivated by the instructional video means I might need help helping you....
Thats about it,
Thanks

Hey there.
You should try lee droid's and cool's.

Hey, I had a look at leedroid and cool, and I might give them a go, but they don't seem too different to the insertcoin Rom I'm using at the moment, plus I like the plain sense3 lockscreen
I'm more excited about finding a jellybean or ics Rom that is stable and doesnt tell me that 'my device is not compatible' with my Natwest app or vouchercloud

Hey,
Which Runnymede rom do you mean?
Cool 3D?
Runnymedemod007?
Runnymede AOI?
etc,
I have tried Runny Rom, and I agree it is stable, but it was also quite slow and jumpy for me, I don't know if I was using the right Kernel, but I think I was. I even OC'd to 1132 MHz, but it didn't seem to make a difference.
I'm now trying runnymede aio as suggested and so far I'm quite impressed, seems to be stable and smooth, except the weather, but its livable with.

Might want to try Paranoid Android 4.11 Jelly Bean. From my experience it's the most stable Jelly Bean rom for Desire. The currently most stable ICS is this.

I personally would not recommend any ics/jb rom for everyday use.

Well, yeah, ICS/JB roms are not too stable, but they are gradually getting better and better. I haven't had any major problems with any of the roms, except some occassional reboots or freezes - so far zero of them with this rom. And to be honest, I'd say that the ICS/Jellybean features and HWA are worth some discomfort. If you need to use the phone for work I wouldn't suggest them too much. But if your phone is mostly a "toy"/tinkering machine, go for it.
Also just noticed that OP had already tested the Paranoid Android JB rom... My bad. No problems for me with it so far. I didn't even know that my Desire could be this smooth :l.
I agree, I have tried most of the ics/jb roms now, and for a daily Rom I would stick with gingerbread, I'm getting back to sense at the moment, seriously considering a oneX+ when I can upgrade, although the Motorola maxx HD looks promising...
