coolexe has an alignment script that will convert ext3 -> ext4 just before flashing

that is a good place to start - although some of the links are incorrect and I think some are in the wrong categories which is a shame

lothaen, thanks i gave it a go, i have come to the conclusion that i hate sense, i love the way it looks and the customization, but when you get down to the nitty gritty things, i hate it lol

I like sense - but thats just my opnion

fair enough, i want to like it tho

Same with me.
Tried leedroid, oxygen, cm6, cm7, various HD ports and settled down to miui.us 1.7.22.

I love sense and I will go back to it at some point, waiting on Droidzone to update his gingerburst RoM. But at the moment am using MIUI data2ext and its bloody great, love everything about it, at first it looks abit iphoney but you can download alot of themes and change the look.
So try MIUI

No Sense no HTC. If you want no sense buy SG2
And BTW LeeDroid rox

Cool AceS Mix v2,very fast
but no chinese touch input

Beso your hardcore mate, if i can get a sgs2 for £150 of ebay i would mate, but to be honest i hate samsung stuff so it'd be an opx2 for me mate
actually i have tried the 2 hd senses, they feel very laggy to me, is the normal senses a bit faster, i might give them a go, just to spice things up, but even tho i hate apple stuff, i love the miui rom, so classy, i might find a sense rom for backup for when i have an urge for it

The only thing why I would consider miui is auto brightness which works fcuking awesome with it. Otherwise, I'm sticking to my Sense integration wrapped in my LauncherPro theme

im downloading leedroid 3.0.8.2, not the hd one, i'll give it a try, what would you say is the best sense rom? non hd? iv come from having a wildfire,blade and pulse, one thing i will say is that the dev community for the desire is amazing, so many devs, roms, kernels, the works, we are very lucky to be spoilt and have so much to choose from.

Can you Please Post Questions in the Q&A forum Thanks
Moving to Q&A

the first rom i installed was gingervillain 2.0
ive tried several roms, coming and going between them, they all had advantages/disadvantages. but i always keep ending up installing gingervillain. its does everything i need, its quick, it's sense-less (personally dont like it) and as yet, i dont think ive encountered a bug with it.
now running gingervillain 2.7

Redux 1.2, awesomely fast! original android 2.3 without sense or any other big additions. Clean and stable! no bugs so far!

Huh? Sense may be an HTC ui but its not like a Desire wont work without it! In fact it works better without it, have you seen the aosp ROMs out there?

All sense ROMs are a little bit laggy as they kinda bog down the OS.. if you want a very fast and stable ROM, try an aosp ROM like CyanogenMod7.. its awesome! I've heard Oxygen is also very good, its what I'll be trying next

[Q] [Question] Going back to Stock Froyo !

Hey XDA ,
This is my first Post here , Pardon me if I sound noobish (I'm a noob but I learn fast and I'm on my way of becoming an electrical enigeneer)!
I have an HTC Wildfire , rooted using the method in this thread a few months ago
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145035
I'm Currently on CM 7.1.0.1 , and I have CWM 5.0.2.0 flashed
I went through a few versions of CM7 and this is the one that satisfies me the most.
However , I want to go back to Stock Froyo , basically because I want more stability and I think It'd be nice to have sense back (And I think the GPS is not working but It's not too important for me) , and I thought , I already have the phone rooted so I can install custom kernels , OC , ... , while still having the stock ROM .
I heard that going back to Froyo would make me "Lose" the Rooting .
First of all , What does this mean ? and is there a way of doing it without "Loosing " Root or Bricking the phone ?
If not , please recommend the best Sense ROM available that could be as good as CM7 with minimal known bugs (would appreciate download links).
One last thing (Don't know if it's relevant) , I partitioned my SD and it's working great using the Link2SD App , Is my SD still a GoldCard?
I went through the forums and couldn't find an answer , And again , sorry for sounding like a noob and thanks in advance !

Hey pal your best bet is to run a custom froyo sense rom that will keep root and work with your Sdcard partition. I suggest rem puzzle as its fast stable with app2sd and GPS working. Something to note, when you install it it will reboot a few times and take up to 15 minutes. Its normal, don't panic

What about Gingerbread Sense ? Any recommendations?

Right now, your best bet for speed and stability would be RemPuzzle.
Gingerbread Sense Tom's like KoolSense work, but they're a bit slow.

ahhh why go back to stock Sense Rom, trust me, its become a habit for me to change roms like socks! therz so many to chose from mate. and yes i must admit stability is a huge factor in choosing a rom. my major issue with sense is the lack of over clocking. I tried kwbr rom, its sense alright, with beats audio but no overclocking ability, any way I use CM 7.2 RC3 for everyday use, its super stable and fast. i use go launcher as my everyday launcher as well, but its all a matter of taste in what you like, here is a link to the various roms available to our dear wildfire

if you really insist on going back to stock sense, i will post the RUU link but just browse these rroms for a while hey...
PS. if i helped, please click thanks

You can overclock sense based roms. Rempuzzle has an overclockable kernal included. For kwbr you will have to flash a different kernal.

You can't change that Kernel its needed for some hardware on the phone to work use a Sense 4.0A ROM if you want sense 4.0

Goodluck

I thought that Sens is good when purchased my phone. Then it updated to 2.3, then I rooted it and got 3.0 with Virtuous Affinity and I still thought that I need Sense on my phone. It's only when I got fed up with all the lags I installed Mimicry. It was like a breath of fresh air. Everything suddenly was all smooth and lag free.
Make a backup, give it a try. If you won't like it - just restore.

Partially agree, but since I tried GenY, I don't have any complaints about speed and still have Sense. I was using Mimicry and have to say it's best AOSP ROM, but lack of mms and sending contacts by SMS forced me to go back for Sense rom. And only 1 is good is GenY.

[Q]I have a H3g_001 is ther any jb roms for this

i have a carrier locked one a and i would liek to get JB prefrably sense based job and hopefully with the inproved battery proformance if its possible if that isnt possible is there any jb roms that will run on RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_H3G_UK_2.17.771.3_Radio_2.1204.135.20H_release_277220_signed.exe currently i cant remebr what the hboot is thanks in advance for the help

The ruu is for the 1.12 hboot. No JB yet......and as far as i know its not rolled out yet, have more patience is the answer here ...... sorry
Ow and the JB roms that do work are the aosp roms, like CM10 (the ones without sense)

do the aosp roms have better battery proformance and overall proformance than sense ICS

That depends per user, i never tested it. I only run sense roms, i just don't like the aosp type roms. Some say yes and some say no......
Can't give a straight answer to that

I use AOKP, ICJ 1.5 for me has been brilliant, I get the odd rogue day where i get battery drain but i put it down to gps/wifi being left on by mistake. I usually charge my phone every evening and it runs all day perfectly. I think when i come to charge it at around 10-11ish i have 15-10% average!
Try it for yourself. theres less baggage so theres more memory freed up too.

The jb update is available now if u haven't received ota you can search this site for firmware zip and do it manually

My personal preference is ViperX, It has many tweaks and features compared to many of the other roms. Really I would say try them all out and see which fits you best with speed and features.
As for installing you can find guides and everything you need to know on installing roms on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1832891 in the development section. It has everything you need to know!

Yes that is correct. I would recommend TWRP recovery. You would then make a nandroid backup.

all of them

My top 3
BugX, trickdroid, viperX

If you want AOSP, Ice Cold Jelly is quite nice in my opinion.
If you prefer Sense, then ViperX JB would be a solid choice.
Sent from my One X

I prefer renovate because zeroinfinitys awesome sound enchantment and mwilkys awesome tweaks that makes the rom absolutly fast

My Favourite
My personal favourite is Ice Cold Jelly 4.2.1 but if you prefer to use sense, I would recommend Android Revolution HD or Team Venom ViperX
