There's a dump of the "Wildfire" rom kicking around on here somewhere
I need froyo with sense also badly...
Kick!
Is there no one else that likes HTC sense? I would cook my own rom if i was able to do so. Is there some documentation for this. I have searched the forums...

There seems no mutch anymo. Strange, because the ui comes with such good aps..
For Sense UI you may wish to take a look at a few of the G1 hero ports, although all of those I have found have a few things not working, and the build sizes are around 110-130MB which is too big for normal kaiser installations.
I'd love to see a Sense port too, just for the sake of completeness, we've had just about everything else
(What I'd really love to see is a basic guide to porting for kaiser, since my own attempts seem to end in failure )

if you havent got anything to say why post ?
There are requirements every rom needs which are stated in the main post. If you download cm7 version you need cm7 hboot. Then you must decide if you want something built around newest official release or you want a port, a 2.1+3.0 hybrid etc.
But as you wrote in such fashion your first post, it seems you have some reading to do nevertheless as it seems you mix a rom and hboot. Sorry if I'm wrong.
Search before asking. If it's been asked before there is no need to ask again.

cheers matey i didnt mix them maybe i didnt explain to good, one of my probs lol
Try oxygen 2.2.1 which is fast, stable, fully functional, works with stock hboot and is running gb 2.3.5 - its what I'm using right now. Its not sense but its a great rom.
You wont find it on xda as the dev has started his own forum - search google for oxygen forum

Guys, cool it, there's no need to be hostile. XDA is all about helping others, and the Search function, as we all know, is far from perfect. It's not the most efficient way to get to the bottom of what msdl28712 was asking--which is user's feedback of different ROMs. Actually, this is the most efficient way of getting that info: by posting and letting users answer, then let the post sink into oblivion a few days afterwards. So you don't have to PMS over something so trivial.
As to which ROMs are fast, I find that Oxygen and InsertCoin are the fastest GingerBread ROMs. Oxygen is AOSP, built with minimal hacks, while InsertCoin has Sense 2.1 from HTC. They're both lean, as can be seen from the less than 60Mb-sized zip files (less half the size of other ROMs like LeeDroid or Stock ROoted GB). MIUI is pretty slim too, only 85Mb zipped, although that's because the English language pack is itself 25Mb. If you're Chinese, then MIUI is only 60Mb zipped, which makes it a lean, sexy ROM like Oxygen. Those 3 recommended ROMs I've used myself, and have had not one single bootloop (I always do full wipe before flashing, even if I'm flashing a newer version of the same ROM). I think those 3 are the cream of the crop.
I haven't tried your others yet, but that's because I've been so happy with InsertCoin.
I haven't had any issues at all and is nice and smooth. Also the tutorials on the Devs own site are really useful.
I have a T-Mobile G2 ver. 2.3.4. How easy is it and what are the steps to install HTC Sense on my phone? Are there bugs or glitches? Please let me know. Thank you very much!
You just need to find and flash a Sense based ROM via CWM. Virtuous ROMs work very well. I switch between CM7 and Unity on a regular basis and both are stable enough for day to day use.
I assume you have already set the phone up for flashing different ROMs?
Flashing different ROMs? How is it done? I haven't done anything to it except updating it to 2.3.4 using XDA's method. T-Mobile's OTA was taking a long time so I researched and found XDA. Thanks XDA!
It sounds like you have a lot of reading ahead of you.
Flashing ROMs is essentially installing new firmware on the device via a program called ClockWork.
I recommend starting off by reading through guides and information on the link below. The devices typically has safeguards against allowing you to just flash new ROMs, so a process is involved to unlock the phone and allow you to do it.
Once you become familiar with what it is, then learn how to do it, and what it does. I followed the gfree method on XDA wiki and had no issues, but if I recall, being on 2.3.4 you cannot follow the same method and must downgrade first.
Read, read, read. Then read some more. Search is very helpful.

The Desire Z HBoot is required for Unity and Doubleshot, but not for Virtuous Sense v2.0.0, I believe.

if you are rooted, it should be somewhat simple. are you rooted?
Thanks for all the info and help guys but I'll stick to what I have for now. I read somewhere that there's still some glitches on the install like landscape is not working. And I'll do more research first so I won't brick my phone. Again, thanks guys! Peace!
Landscape rosie (homescreen) doesn't work for Unity. Its not an install glitch or bug, per se. The ROM based on HTC Sensation ROM, which does not have a keyboard, and therefore does not have landscape. Landscape rosie simply does not exist on that ROM, and the dev was fully aware that would be the case, all along. There is no Sense 3.0 with landscape rosie until HTC makes one.
Doubleshot has landscape rosie. Virtuous Sense is based on the official ROM for the Desire Z, so I assume landscape rosie works on that, as well.
There are also other Sense ROMs besides the Virtuous ones, like Insert Coin. But I don't know a whole lot about them.

Searching the Virtuous Sense thread, somebody says that the DZ HBoot is not needed. But I can't personally confirm.
Is you are getting virtuous sense then landscape does work but if you get virtuous unity, landscape does not work

Well, if you are after fast then I can recommend the dGB ROM. I'm currently useing it and very satisfied. Although one might find it too "basic" (/system is only 60 mb)

SwiftKeyed from my HTC Desire using XDA App.
Oxygen 2.3.2, with dalvik-to-SD zip flashed afterwards is really fast, great battery and plenty of space.
You can get more space by flashing the Bravo Sense or CM7r2 hboots before flashing the ROM.
I have the Bravo Sense hboot at the moment with the above setup and have 163 MB free even though I have 54 apps installed. There would be even more free space with the CM7r2 hboot, I just can't be bothered reflashing right now!
Search google for Oxygen forums.
I'm using insertcoin which runs very smoothly with no problems. I would recommend you try this

Hello guys!
I recently bought a Desire Z and I want to change my ROM cause the one I have one is slow.
I have Android Revolution HD 6.3.3 (actually I installed it) but i think it's a little slow. I had before stock ROM and I was smooth and really fast but the backup got corrupted and I couldn't restore.
So now I'm searching for a Sense ROM that is fast and doesn't lag. And instead of trying every ROM I thought you might help me.
My phone is rooted and is S-OFF so if you have any suggestions I'm ready to flash .
Thanks in advance!

with affinity, you wont be able to play games like temple run because its the most ram consuming rom ive ever tried, and i tried them all.
energy a bit better then affinity, but being sense 3.5 you wont be having more then 60mb free ram after some using.
i dont think you would like sense 4.0a roms either because of the poor battery life and screen glitches related to 3.x kernel.
imho, untill the 3.x kernels gets fixed and optimized enough, sense 2.1 is the best sense rom we can have.

Course if heavy android gaming is your thing, then I wouldn't recommend Sense at all for the rom on such a phone and rather something more along the lines of a AOSP style rom (aokp, cm, etc).
PS: The 3.0x kernel roms are always going to be slower than their 2.6.x counterparts.
I guess at the current time, if it must be Sense, shoudl go with something based off of Sense 3.5 or earlier (3.6 onward is ICS). But even 3.5 is considered reasource heavy, hence the 2.1 btrst mentioned.

Or if you know a rom that doesn't have sense and runs gr8 i'll be happy to try it out.
Well for senseless roms try audacity or mimicry, they are the best ics stock roms I can think of, but there is this crazy dev working on a jelly bean Rom and its quite good but it is still a test build.
